Markup of a Collection Catalog
Contributor(s): THL Staff.
Creating the General Structure
A catalog collection should be marked up in XML using the GDMS dtd. Such a catalog can be created relatively automatically using a THL Word macro. Here's how to run the macro:
- You will need to have already converted the Word bibliographic tables into TIBBIBL XML documents.
- You will need to have the Word document called CatalogProcessing.doc, which probably was used to create the individual TIBBIBL files. If you don't have it, it can be downloaded here.
- Then, make sure all the Word docs that are the bibl records are organized in individual folders named "V01", etc. This is not absolutely necessary but should help in processing.
- Place the "CatalogProcessing.doc" in the parent folder of those volumes.
- Open the "CatalogProcessing.doc" and from it's "Catalog Conversion" menu choose the option "Create Edition File".
- The macro will ask you for the following information:
- The full name of the edition
- The sigla for the edition
- The name you want to give the resulting XML file
- The number of volume in the edition
- Then for each volume it will ask you to select the particular XML TIBBIBL records for that volume
The macro will then create a basic GDMS file for the catalog. This can be augmented by adding further metadata including other language versions of the Title, the author information and so forth.
You will need to add the elements for the THL breadcrumbs in the following pattern:
<identifier type="breadcrumbs"> <indexterm label="Domain" type="domain"> <extref href="http://www.thdl.org/collections/index.html" targettype="html"> Collections </extref> </indexterm> </identifier>
Follow the same pattern for "Portal", "Project", and "Home" where each subsequent one is the child breadcrumb of the proceding and "Home" being the parent page for the catalog. The middle two - portal and project - do not need to be used if there are not intermediary levels. The last of the indext terms should be one for the catalog itself, the "Self" indexterm should look like this:
<indexterm label="Self" type="self">Collected Writings of Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche</indexterm>
An example of the XML for a full catalog is found here, although you will have to view the source to see it, if you click on that link.
The GDMS file begins with a <gdms> element that contains a <gdmshead> element for metadata and one <div> element that represents the edition. This <div> has a child <div> for each volume in the edition and each volume <div> has a text <div> for each text it contains.
Markup for Text Resources
Text <div>s are marked up in the following way. Its id attribute is set to sigla-text #, such as "dkcw-2". It has a label attribute for display , such as "Dkcw 2", and its type is "text". It contains a <divdesc> that has a single <mediatype> element set to "text". This is all inserted by the macro. The macro then inserts a single <resgrp> with the <resinc>s for the bibliographic record and the e-text. However, the markup has been changed since the converter was written. This needs to be changed!.
The new markup is to have three types of <resgrp>:
- <resgrp type="bibl" label="Bibliographic Record">
- <resgrp type="etext" label="Electronic Text">, and
- <resgrp type="dl" label="Download">.
The bibl resgrp has only one <resinc> that has the following attributes:
- href="name of XML file"
- type="tibbibl"
- title="Bibliographic Record"
The other two have one or more resincs depending on the resources available. Dilgo Khyentse's Collected Works has two resincs here: one for the Unicode text, and one for the Wylie version. These have the following attributes:
- href="name of the file resource"
- type="tei" (for e-texts) "rtf" or "zip" (for downloads)
- title="Unicode" or "Wylie"
Location of Files
All the bibliographic records and the catalog structure GDMS file should be in the same folder on the site. This would be the root folder for the collection. Within this folder there should be a "dls" folder for downloads, and an "texts" folder for e-texts. The respective files should go in their appropriate folder.

Tina Brown, editor of The Daily Beast and Newsweek, tells us what she's been reading in a feature that Morning Edition likes to call "Word of Mouth."
This month, Brown shares reading recommendations related to the changing role of women, including a book about when the women of Newsweek sued their bosses, an article about a wife becoming the primary breadwinner and another about how a woman's Facebook photo reflects her sense of identity.
'Women In Revolt'
Brown's first pick is Lynn Povich's The Good Girls Revolt. In it, Povich recounts the 1970 class-action lawsuit she and her fellow female Newsweek employees filed against the magazine because, at the time, it allowed women to work only as researchers and fact checkers, not writers or editors.
What was incredible about the suit is that by the time it was filed, women had already been distinguishing themselves in journalism for decades. The policy also seemed to contradict Newsweek's editorial mission at the time.
"Here was Newsweek, which was on the vanguard of writing about civil rights, about liberal causes," Brown says, "and in fact their own culture was so kind of adamantly Mad Men."
It was the first time women in the media had sued for equal opportunity, and they made it count.
"The women got together, basically, and plotted quietly in the ladies' room what they were going to do," Brown says. "And they timed it absolutely brilliantly to coincide with the publication of a big Newsweek cover about, you know, women's lib called 'Women in Revolt.' "
Also crucial was their choice of legal representation — civil rights activist, and current D.C. congresswoman, Eleanor Holmes Norton. Brown says, "It was really [Norton's] insistence that they should not make this a kind of interoffice kind of revolt, but a real suit that actually changed the culture."
Today, Brown says, that suit remains a part of the magazine's DNA — and some argue there's still work to be done.
Rising In The Workplace
Brown's next pick is The New York Times Magazine's "Who Wears the Pants in This Economy?" an adapted excerpt from Hanna Rosin's new book, The End of Men. In it, Rosin tells the story of an Alabama husband who was the sole breadwinner in his household until he lost his job managing a textile plant.
"What we see is how the wife really thrives, finally, in this new culture because she's required to finally, you know, to get a job. ... She gets a job as a family self-sufficiency coordinator at the city housing authority," Brown says. "The husband, meanwhile, goes from job to job, trying to get hired. Each time it doesn't go well."
Meanwhile, his wife rises fast in her new job, and Rosin's article explains why.
"What we see more and more is that men are so much less adaptable," Brown says. "They're ... freighted with their own expectations. These middle-aged men who were laid off are still always really haunted by the men they used to be, the roles they used to play, their sense of their own stature. Whereas the women, of course, didn't have that stature, didn't have those roles, so they're kind of willing, really, to do anything. They're quite happy to come in at sort of more entry-level. They get a bunch of skills; they do this and that; they take on these things; and finally they become very invaluable to their companies and they rise and they rise and they're promoted while their husbands are sending out their resumes every night. It's a tragic situation, actually, of course, for the men."
The Facebook Mom
Brown's last recommendation is Katie Roiphe's Financial Times article "Disappearing Mothers," about a growing trend among moms on Facebook in which they use photos of their children as profile pictures instead of photos of themselves.
"The choice may seem trivial," Roiphe writes, "but the whole idea behind Facebook is to create a social persona, an image of who you are projected into hundreds of bedrooms and cafes and offices across the country. Why would that image be of someone else, however closely bound they are to your life, genetically and otherwise?"
"She really talks about how women still sort of want to efface themselves and promote their children as opposed to themselves," Brown says. "And she thinks that's a very unhealthy commentary on women's sense of identity."
Roiphe writes that while children are an important achievement, they shouldn't define you.
"She thinks that children should actually not be the complete center of everybody's worlds," Brown says. "They should be allowed to have their own space and identity, and so should parents."
Tina Brown is with us once again. She is the editor of The Daily Beast and of Newsweek and a regular guest on this program for a feature we call Word Of Mouth. She tells us what she's been reading. We get reading recommendations for ourselves.
Hi, Tina.
TINA BROWN: Good morning, Steve.
INSKEEP: And you have brought us three recommendations on the changing role of women. The first one being a book by Lynn Povich, called "The Good Girls Revolt."
BROWN: Yes, this is the most delicious and zesty account of how the women of Newsweek magazine in 1970 launched a class action suit against their bosses because, incredibly, women at the time at Newsweek were only allowed to be researchers and fact checkers, not either writers or editors.
INSKEEP: And it's incredible because there had been famous women journalists, not just women journalists, but really famous and distinguished women journalists; for a century, by 1970 - or more.
BROWN: It's really remarkable. And, of course, what is deliciously sort of comical, in a sense, about it is that here was Newsweek, which was on the vanguard of writing about civil rights, about liberal causes, and in fact their own culture was so kind of adamantly "Mad Men."
INSKEEP: So the uprising at Newsweek, what made it such a landmark instance?
BROWN: Well, it was a landmark instance because it was the first time that women in the media had sued. And the women got together, basically, and plotted quietly in the ladies room what they were going to do. And they timed it absolutely brilliantly to coincide with the publication of a big Newsweek cover about, you know, women's lib called "Women in Revolt."
And what they did was, what was very crucial was that they managed to sort of recruit the brilliant, you know, civil rights pugilist Eleanor Holmes Norton, the African-American lawyer who took it on as the first woman's media class action suit. And it was really her insistence that they should not make this a kind of interoffice kind of revolt, but a real suit that actually changed the culture.
INSKEEP: You know, four decades later you became the editor of Newsweek magazine. And I'm sure there are few, if any, employees left over from four decades ago. But I'm wondering if this case is still part of the magazine's lore and it's DNA.
BROWN: It's very much part of the magazine's lore. Actually, only Eleanor Clift, the great Washington correspondent, remains from those days. And she wrote very amusingly about it, actually, in the issue we dedicated to "Mad Men," the TV show, when she recalls being part of that "Mad Men" culture at the time.
But, yes, actually, it is very much part of the lore. And, in fact, Lynn Povich's book opens with two of the younger writers, one of who is still there, a woman who talks about feeling still that there was too much of a male culture at the magazine. And, indeed, you know, since I've taken over we have enormously increased the role of women executives.
INSKEEP: Now, we heard Lynn Povich, the author of "The Good Girls Revolt" on NPR the other day. We also heard on MORNING EDITION the other day from Hanna Rosin, the next author you want to talk about. She wrote in addition to a New York Times article a book that's been much talked about called "The End of Men." I want to get your thoughts on it.
BROWN: Yes, well, the extract in the New York Times - she talks about these couples - one couple in particular - in Alexander City, Alabama, which is so endemic in a sense of what is going on right now in America, which is the husband is a manager at a textile plant. He's been a good provider for his family. His wife has been raising the family. But, of course, you know, the plant eventually gets bought. Everyone's laid off. And suddenly, their whole dynamic in their marriage and their breadwinning changes.
But what we see how is how the wife really thrives, finally, in this new culture because she's required to finally, you know, to get a job and she gets a job as a family self-efficiency coordinator at the city housing authority. The husband, meanwhile, goes from job to job trying to get hired, each time it doesn't go well. She rises very fast and the question is why? And the reason really is because what we see more and more is that men are so much less adaptable, so much less flexible. They're in a way they're freighted with their own expectations.
These middle-aged men who are laid off are still always really haunted by the men they used to be, the roles they used to play, the sense of their own stature, whereas the women, of course, didn't have that stature, didn't have those rules, so they're kind of willing really to do anything. They're quite happy to come in at more entry-level, they get a bunch of skills, they do this and that, they take on these things, and finally they become very invaluable to their companies, and they rise and a rise and they're promoted while their husbands are sending out their resumes every night. It's a bit, a tragic situation, actually for, of course, the men.
INSKEEP: And I suppose we should say we're talking examples, we're talking statistics here. I'm sure there's men in nontraditional positions listening to us even as we talk.
BROWN: Of course, they are. And in fact, they are the ones who are thriving. But there are plenty of others who still feel impeded by their own kind of expectations of themselves.
INSKEEP: So now why do you add now this additional article from the Financial Times? The headline is "Disappearing Mothers." The author is Katie Roiphe.
BROWN: Well, she writes about how there's a kind of growing trend for women. Instead of posting their own faces on Facebook in their updates, is to post the pictures of their children. And she says, you know, the whole idea behind Facebook is to create a social persona; why would that image be of somebody else, however closely bound they are to your life, genetically and otherwise?
And she really talks about how women still sort of want to efface themselves and promote their children as opposed to themselves. And she thinks that's a very unhealthy commentary on women's sense of identity.
INSKEEP: Well, I wondered a couple of things about this thesis. First, I wondered if you really could tell that much by which particular photo a woman has chosen at this moment to be the top photo on her Facebook page. I mean people change those all the time anyway.
BROWN: Well, I think that, you know, it feels - once you sort of pass the threshold of being a kind of hot and happening youngster, you know, like my daughter who is 22, where they're always constantly updating pictures of themselves, always looking like wild social successes, you know, with their chinking glasses and their party central, a certain thing happens where women are feeling that they are much more defined by themselves as nurturers and they feel a little embarrassed to put their own photographs up. It looks a little vain. It looks a little conceited. But Katie also says that one's children are an important achievement, and arguably one's most important achievement, that doesn't mean that they are who you are.
And she goes on to make the commentary that she thinks that actually children should not be the complete center of everybody's world. They should be allowed to have their own space and identity, and so should parents.
INSKEEP: So the picture on your Facebook page, it's you, right? I guess...
BROWN: I think it would be me. I think it's a little, I don't know. Listen, I'm quite capable of posting the pictures of my son and daughter. I mean, they are the apple of my eye and I'm probably just as guilty as all these parents.
INSKEEP: Tina, thanks very much.
BROWN: Thank you.
INSKEEP: Always a pleasure to talk with you. "Word of Mouth" from Tina Brown, editor Daily Beast and Newsweek.
INSKEEP: It's MORNING EDITION from NPR News. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

text: Hi, what about integrating piwik as an alternative to webalizer and awstats? Piwik has the possibility to analyze logfiles in current releases. http://piwik.org/log-analytics/ This doesn't offer some features that are available through javascript snippet inclusion, but it does at least as much as awstats I think. It has a remote API to create users and sites so this should work, too.

Penguins get past Panthers without Malkin, Crosbyby Alain Poupart
SUNRISE, Fla. -- Even without their two superstars, the Pittsburgh Penguins continued their march Saturday toward clinching the top seed in the Eastern Conference.
Kris Letang and Brenden Morrow scored to give the Penguins a 2-0 first-period lead, and they held on for a 3-1 victory against the Florida Panthers at BB&T Center. Morrow added an empty-net goal with 20.5 seconds left.
Evgeni Malkin joined Sidney Crosby on the sidelines Saturday when he was a late scratch with an upper-body injury. The Penguins had been 14-4 without either Malkin or Crosby, but this was the first time this season both were missing. Pittsburgh also was playing without defenseman Paul Martin (hand) and left wing James Neal (concussion).
"It hasn't been our plan, but we're finding ways," Morrow said. "Each game somebody is stepping up and it's feeling really good."
The victory increased Pittsburgh's lead atop the Eastern Conference to seven points over the Montreal Canadiens, who lost against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Boston Bruins, who missed a chance to pass Montreal when they lost against the Carolina Hurricanes, are eight points behind the Penguins.
According to STATS, Inc., the Penguins are 24-13-5 since 2008 when playing without both Crosby and Malkin.
Penguins coach Dan Bylsma said Malkin aggravated a previous injury and was day-to-day.
"That's always a disappointment for the 18,000 fans, you want to see those premier players," Panthers coach Kevin Dineen said. "If you pay a lot of money to see the [Miami] Heat and you don't get to see LeBron [James] right now, that would have a little sting to it. I enjoy watching those good players play, but at the end of it, they've been down this road before where they're missing their quality players and they always have a response and that gets back to that team concept and they have that."
Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 25 shots for Pittsburgh. He preserved the lead by stopping Tomas Fleischmann on a partial breakaway in the final minute before Morrow's empty-net goal.
Fleischmann's shot came almost from the same spot from where he beat Fleury for the game-winner in Florida's 6-4 victory against the Penguins at BB&T Center on Feb. 26.
"I kind of had that in the back of my mind a little bit," Fleury said. "I tried to make myself big and got enough of a piece and made a stop."
Rookie Beau Bennett, who moved up to a line with Morrow and Pascal Dupuis in Malkin's absence, had two assists for the first multi-point game of his NHL career.
"He's really poised with the puck for a young guy," Morrow said. "He makes some really good plays."
The Penguins have won four in a row since a two-game losing streak followed their 15-game winning streak in March. They are now 17-0 when leading after two periods.
The Penguins allowed four power-play goals in their loss at Florida on Feb. 26, but killed off all four Panthers' power plays Saturday. Two of those came in the final 10:15 of regulation.
It was a good bounce-back effort for the Penguins' penalty-killing unit, which gave up three power-play goals during a 6-3 victory against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday.
"The penalty kill was exceptional coming back after last game giving up three power-play goals," Bylsma said. "They were put in some tough situations in the third period. Our penalty kill had to come up with a couple of big kills."
Scottie Upshall scored for the Panthers, who have the fewest points in the NHL with 32.
It was only the third goal of the season for Upshall, who had a lengthy 1-on-1 conversation with Dineen at the morning skate.
"Obviously, things haven't gone so well," Upshall said. "I'll be the first to admit it hasn't been a great year. As a group, we still have a long ways to go to get to where we need to be. Tonight, we had glimpses where we were good or great and sometimes we got caught kind of watching. Little things like that are what determines games."
Jacob Markstrom, making his eighth start in the past nine games, made 19 saves. He was pulled from his previous start after allowing six goals on 23 shots in a 7-2 loss against the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday.
Defenseman Mike Weaver returned to the Florida lineup after missing 20 games because of a lower-body injury.
The Panthers, however, lost fellow defenseman Filip Kuba to a lower-body injury in the third period. Dineen said there was a "little bit of a concern" about Kuba, who didn't play in the final 15:24 of the game.
Letang, who returned to action Thursday after missing the previous six games with a toe injury, opened the scoring at 14:49 when his slap shot from the blue line got through traffic and beat Markstrom to the stick side.
Morrow, acquired in a trade with the Dallas Stars on March 24, scored his second goal in a Penguins' uniform at 18:27 after a strong individual effort by Bennett.
Bennett skated around the Florida defense and behind the net before sending a pass across the crease to Morrow. The puck went behind the net when Morrow couldn't control the pass, but he banked it off Markstrom's backside.
"I was looking to see what was going to open up and he kind of slid in the backdoor," Bennett said. "Good play by him because he kind of waited and waited, and no one saw slip through the backdoor. Luckily, it got through and he finished."
Upshall made it 2-1 at 4:10 of the second when he backhanded his own rebound. The goal came less than 15 seconds after Panthers defenseman Brian Campbell hit the post with a wrist shot from the high slot.
"Even without their two superstars they still have a pretty solid lineup," Upshall said. "On Saturday night on home ice, you could have a little bit better effort and done some little things better. Overall, we gave them a good ride and played hard. I thought we battled."
The loss mathematically eliminated Florida from playoff contention. The Panthers, who won their first division title last season, can finish with no more than 46 points. The New York Rangers currently stand eighth in the Eastern Conference with 46 points and would win a tiebreaker with the Panthers because of a higher victory total -- New York has 21, while the Panthers currently have 13.

Robinson boosts Bulls past Nets
Brooklyn, NY – Nate Robinson netted the go-ahead bucket with 22.7 seconds remaining to lift the Chicago Bulls to a 92-90 victory over the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday.
Carlos Boozer had a team-high 29 points and 18 rebounds for the Bulls, who were coming off a 90-86 loss in Washington on Tuesday. Luol Deng added 18 points and Jimmy Butler had 16 points and 10 rebounds in the victory.
With the win, Chicago moved within 1 1/2 games of Brooklyn for the fourth spot in the Eastern Conference standings. Both the Bulls and Nets have already clinched playoff berths.
Deron Williams had a game-high 30 points and 10 assists for the Nets, who finished an eight-game road trip with a 113-95 win in Cleveland on Wednesday. Joe Johnson tallied 12 points.
Brook Lopez finished with 28 points for Brooklyn, but missed a potential game-tying jumper with one second remaining.
"I contributed a lot to how the final score ended up, and that's definitely not something I'm happy with or proud of," Lopez said.
At halftime, the Nets had a 47-36 advantage. However, the Bulls slowly made their comeback in the third quarter.
While they did not attempt a single free throw, the Bulls were more efficient on the floor during the period, shooting 50 percent compared to the Nets' 31.3 percent.
Butler drilled a 3-pointer with three seconds remaining in the frame to tie the game at 65-65, but Williams made two free throws with 0.3 seconds left to give the Nets a two-point lead entering the fourth quarter.
However, that lead didn't last long, as layups by Boozer and Deng gave Chicago the lead back at 69-67.
Brooklyn remained close behind for the rest of the period until a 3-point play by Williams with 1:54 to play gave the Nets an 85-84 edge.
Boozer made a 17-footer just twenty seconds later, but the Nets retook the lead after a trey by Johnson.
After a free throw by Boozer, Williams made a jump shot and the Nets led by three, 90-87, with 52.9 seconds left.
With 44.7 seconds remaining in regulation, Deng sank a jumper which was later followed by Robinson's game-winner.
Lopez attempted to tie the game with one second left but missed, and Chicago's Daequan Cook grabbed the defensive rebound to end the game.
"We got the plays we needed to get to win the game," Boozer said.
The Bulls struggled in the first quarter, scoring just 13 points on 26.3 percent shooting, but improved by scoring 23 points in the second.
Game Notes
Robinson finished with 12 points ... Lopez scored 18 points in the first quarter ... Brooklyn's Reggie Evans scored zero points, but had 13 rebounds ... The Bulls missed all five of their 3-point attempts in the first half ... Chicago wins the season series, 3-1. The Bulls have won the series against the Nets for the third straight season.

Japan's Asada wavering on retirement from competition
Japanese figure skater Mao Asada, who rebounded from a disastrous short programme at the Sochi Olympics to gain the best score of her career in the free skate, is now wavering on whether to retire from competition.
Asada, who had been expected to be a top prospect for gold at Sochi, tumbled to 16th in the short programme after falling and an overall lacklustre performance.
She finished sixth after a strong free skate that left her in tears at the conclusion of her competition.
Russia's Adelina Sotnikova took gold and long time rival Kim Yuna of South Korea won silver.

Japan's Asada wavering on retirement from competition
"I was really depressed, my feelings were as low as they could go after the short programme, but after that I still had to skate the free," Asada told a news conference in Tokyo on Tuesday after returning from Sochi.
"Of course I was anxious and scared, but I was able to overcome that to give my best performance ever ... I felt so good I should have been smiling, but some of the previous day's feelings lingered, so I wept."
Asada, who won silver at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics and rebuilt her skating from scratch over the last four years in order to challenge South Korea's Kim for gold, said last year she would retire from competition after Sochi.
On Tuesday, though, she said she was taking part in the Figure Skating World Cup next month in Japan to try to atone for Sochi and to express her gratitude to the nation.
"After that, I want to take time out to think about my future," the 23-year-old said. When pressed, she said chances of her retiring were "half and half."

Japan's Asada wavering on retirement from competition
Known as the only woman to land three of the complicated triple Axel jumps in competition, Asada had struggled with the move this season, prompting some commentators to say she should omit it for the Olympics.
She fell while attempting it in the short programme but landed it the next day.
"Achieving the jump in competition always gave me a huge sense of satisfaction," she said.
"But there wasn't really any choice - it was already in my programme, and I feel it is one of the things I can give audiences."
Though the Olympics overall were bittersweet, Asada added that she had learned valuable lessons.
"I had those results in the short programme and I was really sad. But I didn't give up and went on to achieve what I wanted," she said.
"I think this will be a good experience for the rest of my life."
Asada sidestepped a direct answer when asked how she felt about comments by former Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori, who heads the Tokyo 2020 Olympics organising committee and sparked outrage last week when he said that she had a habit of "always falling at the most critical time" in a competition.
Mori later said his remarks were misunderstood.
"Humans fail. Of course it's not acceptable and nobody who fails wants to," she said.
"I think maybe he regrets his comments a bit."

Pint-sized Golfer, 8, Drives Drone Out Of Sky
An Australian golfer is making headlines after hitting a drone out of the sky with one solid drive.
The kicker? She's eight.
Self-confessed 'drone killer' Ruby Kavanagh, currently ranked the number 1 child golfer in the country, was recently captured sending the drone to the ground after lining it up and taking a swing.
Ruby started playing golf at only two years old and is now considered one of the best among the boys and girls in her division.
But despite 250,000 YouTube views and again earning an invitation to the World Junior Championships in North Carolina, Ruby's gofundme page has only garnered a trickle of support – so far only clocking $3000 of her $25,000 goal.
The internet is also divided on whether the drone downing was staged or a crazy accident.
But whether it was an attempted viral marketing attempt or not is pretty much irrelevant, her skills should concern anyone heading out to fly their drone.

By Daniel Whitehead
EMORY, Va. –Looking for a strong start to the 2014 season, the Southern Virginia University softball team fell in both games of a doubleheader at Emory & Henry, 9-0, 9-0, Friday evening at Wasps Field in Emory, Va.
Both games were completed in five innings due to the nine-run advantage rule as Southern Virginia could not cut the Wasp lead after four innings.
In the first game, the Knights (0-2) got behind early in the first inning as the Wasps (3-1) earned five hits against Southern Virginia pitcher Sara Harmon.
Emory & Henry went on another scoring run in the bottom of the third inning against Knight pitcher Jamie Pinkston as the Wasps earned four runs on two hits, capitalizing on stolen bases and advancing from wild pitches.
Freshman third baseman Kelsey Bair earned two hits on two at-bats while shortstop Cheyenne Hegsted earned one hit on two at-bats. First baseman Morgan Young was responsible for six put-outs with Hegsted contributing two and assisting another.
The Wasps earned nine runs on 17 at-bats in the first game while registering seven hits and 7 RBI.
Cassandra Pacheco started at pitcher in the second game for the Knights and allowed just one run in the opening inning. Emory & Henry took off in the second inning by scoring seven runs on two hits as Southern Virginia committed two errors and the Wasps took advantage of several hit-by-pitches, passed balls and walks.
Hannah Bays earned a grand slam with bases loaded by sailing a Pacheco pitch over the center field line. Pacheco was replaced by Pinkston in the third inning and the Wasps tallied just one additional run to close the series.
The Knights return to action to host their 2014 home opener Saturday afternoon against Wilson College. The first pitch is scheduled for noon at The Fields in Buena Vista, Va.

Sorry for the delay in writing a story about this, but here we finally are: Nokia's MeeGo (or Maemo or whatever it's called this hour) is getting its successor. Yes, MeeGo, the short-lived but beloved platform running on the unicorn phone, the Nokia N9, will continue onwards in a slightly different form. Its new home? Jolla - a company formed by former Nokia chief operating officer Marc Dillon, who was the principal engineer for MeeGo/Maemo at Nokia since 2006.

Long before there was "50 Shades of Grey," erotica writings had us turning 50 shades of red.
Historically, erotic writing on its own has never been a big seller for the publishing industry. It falls under romance and is one of the largest fiction categories with about a 3 percent share of spending — or about a billion dollars each year, according to Jim Milliot, co-editorial director of Publishers Weekly.
But that could change. After steaming up the suburbs, "50 Shades of Grey" is heating up the publishing world with lots of "wannabe Shades" coming out.
Kathleen Lubey, associate professor of English at St. John's University, says erotica takes us on a journey.
"It makes us think about what we want and what we don't have," Lubey said. "It's always pushing the envelope with what is sexy, what is sexual and what is 'unthinkable.'"
Erotica, she adds, "provokes a conversation in the reader's head — it makes many people feel like they're doing something a little wrong, when all they're really doing is reading."
So with all the hoopla over "50 Shades" you would think that E.L. James invented mommy and daddy porn. Not so. Click ahead to see other Notable Naughty Reads that shocked the world, forced nations to change laws and forever changed what we read.

Carpet Flood and Water Damage Restoration Kilsyth 3137
Our Certified Carpet Cleaning Restoration Technicians are specially Trained to quickly treat Water and Flood Damaged Carpets, Call 0407727117.
Unfortunately, flood restoration is not a quick fix. Excess water is extracted from the affected area, if required the floor covering is pulled back to enable our drying equipment to be placed in position. This equipment is required to be in place for a minimum of 2 days and could be required for anywhere up to a week, depending on the extent of the water damage. We contact you during this time to arrange a time to attend for the drying to be assessed. Once the drying process is complete, we return to relay your floor covering and treat the affected area for water staining, if required.
Water and Flood Damaged Carpets Kilsyth 3137
If you have water damaged carpets or suffered from a flood, washing machine overload etc.. that has wet or even saturated your carpets there is a proper procedure that should be taking place and that procedure is
- A moisture test to see the exact extent of the water. A proper moisture meter and or hydro sensor accurately pin points to the miler meter exactly where the water finishes. Just because the carpet does not look wet it doesn't mean the underlay and sub-flooring is not wet.
- extraction of as much water as possible with a suction machine portable or truck mount.
- Application of an antimicrobial and deodorizer to help with the smell of moisture and mould. Usually described as the wet dog smell.
- Install air movers/dryers on and in most cased under the carpet. This will evaporate the moisture into the air.
- Install an industrial dehumidifier (or a few) to draw the moisture from the room so the moisture does not seep into the walls and furniture thus causing mold fungus and mildew.
- Check the carpet, underlay and sub-floor with moisture probe every 24 to 48 hours until 100% bone dry.
- Clean and treat the carpet with antimicrobial to help prevent the growth of mould, germs and bacteria.
If this process is not carried out, your floor covering will possibly become a hazard to your health and your hip pocket, as mould and bacteria will form and the rotting process will begin. Our job is to prevent this from occurring, Squeaky Green Clean takes pride in its work and ensure the job is done properly.

Who in the NFL would you rather have starting at runningback over Willie Parker?
Willie has done some great things in his short time in the NFL, but there are Steelers fans on both sides of the fence with him.
I know what Willie brings to the table and I'm also aware of his weaknesses.
No runningback in the NFL brings more "homerun" potential to every carry than Parker. He is a good receiver out of the backfield because he is great in space and can take away the angle from defenders.
He could improve at the point of contact and running between the tackles when the hole is not there. I think he needs to have more patience while running and things will open up. While he is elusive because of his speed he doesn't have great "wiggle"... he needs to get better at shaking the tackler one on one. Unfortunately, I think that is something you are born with and can't be taught.
Having said that I love what Wille does and I'm sure I'll love what he will do in the future.
All things considered, if I could have anyone in the NFL over him it would be...
1. LaDainian Tomlinson
2. Larry Johnson
3. Frank Gore
4. Steven Jackson
Close but no cigar...
1. Maurice Jones-Drew
2. Reggie Bush
3. Adrian Peterson
Your thoughts?... (don't flame me)

There are times that my new Honda XRM motorcycle is neglected. I forgot to wash it. Maybe in a week, I wash it just twice.
When the mileage marked 2,000 I changed again the engine oil and brought it to the motorcycle mechanic for tune-up and check-up. Then after that, the schedule of the change oil will be during the time when the mileage marks every 1,000 kilometers.
As of writing this post, the mileage marked already its 4,000 kilometers travel. I already changed the engine oil and will bringing it again to the motorcycle engine mechanic for another tune-up process and check-up.
Just take a look at the photo below. That�s my dog, �Jurus� watching
So, everyday before I drive the motorcycle, I first check the chain and its looseness and then apply some oil for better lubrication and to lengthen the life of the chain and the chain�s gear.
Just want to remind you�. Learn to drive defensively.

Linux-powered clarinet playing robot wins international prize
Entire computer-driven orchestras not too far away, says NICTA's chief technology officer
By Andrew Hendry
A team of experts and students from NICTA and the University of NSW have won first place in a major international technology competition for developing a robotically operated, computer-driven clarinet running Linux.
Developed over the last eight months, the automated clarinetist beat a Dutch developed guitar playing robot to the top gong in the Artemis Orchestra competition, thanks to its playing ability and the high level of complexity in its mouthpiece design.
Head of the project, NICTA's Dr John Judge, described the robot as an embedded computer system connected via specially constructed electronics to actuators – brass plungers with rubber nylon feet – that control the keys and mouthpiece of the clarinet.

I apologize in advanced for this being a long post. I've been lurking for awhile trying to find help and I finally decided to post. I am a FTM and my DD will be 7 months this weekend. We've bf exclusively except for her starting solids around 6mo. I work FT and went back to work after 3 months, but fortunately my DH is a teacher so he got to be home with her until she was 5 1/2 months. Then once we started daycare everything went downhill.
First of all the dcp has a policy where they throw out any unfinished bottles after an hour...whether it's BM or formula. I fought them on it but they wouldnt budge. All summer long DD was great with 12oz while i was gone (4 3oz bottles). I'm gone 10-11 hours with my commute. She didnt always finish the full 3 oz at once but my DH was great with the BM and none ever got wasted. However as soon as we started daycare, all the sudden she's drinking 1oz and falling asleep the rest is being thrown away. I tried sending 5 2.5oz bottles to see if it helped, then 6 2oz bottles but somehow milk got thrown away everyday. Then she'd be hungry for more (b/c she needs 12 oz) so they started in on my frozen stash. Anyway thats not even what this post is about but i wanted to give a background.
After only one week at daycare, DD got sick. Then I got sick. Then my DH being a teacher got strep throat and we all got sick again. So August was terrible and it affected DD's eating habits, and I think my supply. Since labor day weekend (which i exclusively BF, no pumping) all the sudden I can't pump anymore. If I'm lucky I get 6-7 oz after 4 pumping sessions at work (double pumping). So then i've had to supplement from my frozen stash for the other 6oz. Well my frozen stash will be gone by this Thursday.
I've changed all my pump parts, I've been taking fenugreek for a week, I've always done compressions while I pump, and Ive been drinking mothers' milk tea and eating oatmeal since DD was born. And Ive been putting her to the breast as much as possible when I'm with her but she's crawling now and is "too busy" to nurse much.
I am absolutely devastated. I wanted to end nursing on our terms, not because my frozen stash is gone before I have time to work my supply back up (which probably isnt even possible now). And I know DD is going to be devastated too if I have to wean completely. I'm nervous she won't even drink formula.
I guess I just don't understand why my body isn't producing even close to enough milk. Not sure if there's much advice you can give me...this was probably just a venting session.

The forward march of technology is both unforgiving and unstoppable. As it mercilessly weeds out the old in favor of the new, once-beloved products and services become less favored by consumers, while others simply become obsolete.
It's always been this way. The horse and buggy was once the dominant means of travel for Americans, but once the automobile was invented formerly solvent buggy makers found themselves out of a job.
This dynamic repeats itself whenever an invention comes along that significantly improves on a previous one. It's particularly true when the invention offers convenience and ease of use. What follows is a list of products and services that became so indispensable to consumers that they instantly lost interest in their previous favorites.

The Malleability of Spatial Skills: A Meta-analysis of Training Studies
David H. Uttal1, Nathaniel G. Meadow1, Elizabeth Tipton1, Linda L. Hand1, Alison R. Alden1, Christopher Warren1, and Nora S. Newcombe2 (PI)
1Northwestern University, 2Temple University
For the archival version of this research, and the preferred citation, see:
- Uttal, D. H., Meadow, N. G., Tipton, E., Hand, L. L., Alden, A., Warren, C., & Newcombe, N. S. (2013). The malleability of spatial skills: A meta-analysis of training studies. Psychological Bulletin, 139(2), 352-402. [DOI]
Are spatial skills malleable? If so, how much can we expect them to improve with training? And is that improvement durable and transferable?
What are the implications of the malleability of spatial skills for STEM disciplines?
Having good spatial skills strongly predicts achievement and attainment in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics fields (e.g., Shea, Lubinski, & Benbow, 2001; Wai, Lubinski, & Benbow, 2009). Improving spatial skills is therefore of both theoretical and practical importance. To determine whether and to what extent training and experience can improve these skills, we conducted a meta-analysis of 217 research studies (206 after excluding the outliers) investigating the magnitude, durability, and generalizability of training on spatial skills.
Meta-analyses analyze and present results as effect sizes, which allow for an assessment of the effects of an intervention despite differences in how outcomes are measured. Effect sizes express differences in terms of Standard Deviations. Thus an effect size of 0.5 would indicate that training led to an improvement of one-half of a standard deviation in the measured outcome (Cohen, 1992). The meta-analysis showed that spatial skills are indeed quite malleable. Excluding outliers, the overall mean weighted effect size relative to available controls was 0.47 (SE = 0.04, m = 206, k = 1,038). Spatial training, on average, improved performance by almost one-half of a standard deviation.
Moreover, in at least some cases, the effect of training endured over times. We coded the time delay from the end of training until the posttest was administered for each study. Some researchers administered the posttest immediately, while others waited a few days, a week or even a month to administer the posttest. The magnitude of the training effect was not affected by the length of the delay. This result suggests that training can endure. Of course, those studies that included lengthy delays might differ from those that included only short delays. For example, the studies with lengthy delays may have used stronger or more effective forms of training. Nevertheless, the results do indicate that at least in some situations training can last long enough to be educationally meaningful.
Finally we also examined whether training transfers to other tasks. This issue is particularly important because if the effects of training are confined to performance on tasks directly involved in the training procedure, it is unlikely that training spatial skills will lead to generalized performance improvements in the STEM disciplines. Not all studies included measures of transfer, but those that did showed effects that were as strong as the original training effects (g = 0.48, SE = 0.04, m = 170, k = 764). Thus, there was no decline in the effect of training when moving from the tasks that were directly trained to those that were less like the training task. This result is also very important for education because it suggests that the effects of training would not be limited only to those tasks that were included in the training. Further research is needed to determine whether the training could affect STEM learning, but there is some evidence that it could (e.g. Mix & Cheng, in press, Sorby & Baartmans, 2000).
The findings that spatial skills are malleable, durable and transferable suggests implementation of formal programs targeting spatial skills could aid students' spatial ability. Prior research gives us a way to estimate the consequences of administering spatial training on a large scale in terms of producing STEM outcomes. Wai, Lubinski, Benbow, and Steiger (2010) have established that STEM professionals often have superior spatial skills, even after holding constant correlated abilities such as math and verbal skills. Using a nationally representative sample, Wai et al. (2009) found that the spatial skills of individuals who obtained at least a bachelor's degree in engineering were 1.58 standard deviations greater than the general population .The very high level of spatial skills that seems to be required for success in engineering (and other STEM fields) is one important factor that limits the number of Americans who are able to become engineers (Wai et al., 2009, 2010) and thus contributes to the severe shortage of STEM workers in the United States.
In this meta-analysis, we have demonstrated that spatial skills can be improved. To put this finding in context, we asked how much difference this improvement would make in the number of students whose spatial skills meet or exceed the average level of engineers' spatial skills. We calculated the expected percentage of individuals who would have a Z score of 1.58 before and after training. As shown in Figure 1, increasing the population level of spatial skills by 0.40 standard deviation (the most conservative estimate offered by our findings) would approximately double the number of people who would have levels of spatial abilities equal to or greater than that of current engineers.
In summary, our meta-analysis shows that spatial skills can be improved with training, and the improvement is durable and can be transferred to distinct tasks. Spatial skills are not usually taught in school, but doing so could potentially make a big difference. It could, for example, potentially double the number of students with the level of spatial ability observed in current engineers.

By Christine Ennulat
Way back in college, I went to Haiti for six weeks on an interdenominational mission trip. Our team lived in an orphanage outside of Cap-Haitien, on Haiti's northern coast, where our task for the summer was to add a second floor to a building in an orphanage.
The children were always around, but I remember in particular four little boys — Roro, Antoine, Roger and tiny Delice. They were a pack, always smiling, always curious about what this group of giant, sweating teenagers was up to.
I remember their throwing rocks into trees to knock down mangos and the insanely sour, thick-skinned grapefruit that I loved. I remember them looking on, grinning, as we toiled and complained while washing what must have seemed our overabundance of clothes at the orphanage's well. I remember their small, rain-slick faces peering into the sick tent, where I suffered in quarantine with some unpleasant stomach ailment as a small river rushed past my air mattress, and Roro's asking, "Ou malade?"
Roro was my favorite. He had twinkle to spare, and he and Delice seemed to have a special bond. I thought it was nice that the older boy looked out for the younger with such obvious care.
A few weeks into our stay, I had learned enough Creole to find out that the boys were not 8 or 9 years old, as I'd thought, but 11. All of them — including Delice, whose head reached Roro's shoulder, and whom I'd thought was maybe 5 or 6. But as I thought about him and paid more attention, I recognized his more sober, angular countenance was at odds with his birdlike, stunted body.
When I asked the minister who ran the orphanage about his story, I learned that Delice's mother had left him there as a toddler, and that he had been severely malnourished, which was the reason he was so small. He would grow more, but he would always be small.
Now, decades later, as I explore ChildFund's work so that I can do my job of writing about it, I often learn hard truths. In researching our Early Child Development programs, I've learned about the importance of nutrition in a child's development — physical, cognitive, behavioral and more. The other day, I ran across a widely quoted nugget from Carl Sagan, from a statement he made to Congress in 1994:
"When there isn't enough food, the body has to make a decision about how to invest the limited foodstuffs available. Survival comes first. Growth comes second. In this nutritional triage, the body seems obliged to rank learning last. Better to be stupid and alive than smart and dead."
For Delice, his body's "decision" was outwardly obvious. There's no way to know about the rest of it — what losses he may have had in his learning or social capacities — but, remembering his eyes and his demeanor, I'm pretty sure he was able to hold his own.
I like to think that Delice was one of the comparatively lucky ones — that, with the care he received in the orphanage and with a friend like Roro, he found his way in the world and has lived a productive, satisfying life.
What I know for sure, though, is that the world is too full of 11-year-olds who look like 6-year-olds and too many children who don't survive malnutrition to reach age 5 ― children whose potential has been stolen by malnutrition and other effects of poverty. And that's why ChildFund's work to turn this around for children is so important.

Two longtime Cascade Locks residents showed both anger and voices of reason in a City Council meeting Monday that proved both fractured and cathartic.
Council Member Tom Cramblett and citizen Bobby Walker definitely helped cooler heads to prevail. (Details on page A1.)
They showed that people can change their minds, even within moments of anger, and steer a course of decision the right way.
Cramblett, a four-year Cascade Locks council veteran, did a diplomatic turnaround Monday and Walker, the CLHS 1973 grad, found himself at the center of a storm not of his asking.
Cramblett acted in the right way at just the right moment, after first lamenting being "hammered" by his constituents and issuing a blustery diatribe against councilman Lance Masters for behavior he judged inappropriate (denied by Masters).
But in the heated meeting, as the council teetered at the controversial filling of one new vacancy, it was Cramblett's well-timed acknowledgement that others were right that led him to change his mind and vote against making the appointment.
Cramblett, initially disagreeing, stopped to listen to Masters and councilor Eva Zerfing support Bobby Walker's idea to set a town meeting to hear the views of all who are interested in being appointed.
On the notion of appointing Walker, Cramblett said, "This isn't the way to go about it."
Cramblett then went on to say, "Politics are an ugly thing, all over the country they're ugly, and they have certainly been ugly around here. I'd just like to make it the least ugly we can."
For his part, Walker showed a flash of anger at some members of the audience, and at Masters, when his name was first mentioned as the successor to Haight.
(All vacant positions would be up for election in November 2012.)
Walker even stepped out on the meeting at one point, with his candidacy for appointment still on the table, but returned, and took his name out of the running instead, adding a frank appraisal of what is facing the community. Combined with Cramblett's comments, it helped change the tenor of the discussion.
"This is a continuation of what has gone on here for 10 years," Walker said. "What we have in this town is one third on side, one third on the other, and the last third doesn't seem to care. We've got to find a way to work together."
He urged the city to consider a town meeting to hear from prospective council appointees - probably the best idea at this time for smoothing and clarifying the churning, turbid waters in Cascade Locks.

A Savannah man has been arrested for a Feb. 1 shooting in the city's Victory Heights neighborhood.
Violent crimes detectives on Wednesday charged King Jebrel Coney, 21, with aggravated assault in connection with the non-fatal shooting of a 19-year-old man that afternoon on East 40th Street, said Julian Miller, Savannah-Chatham police spokesman.
The victim arrived at Memorial University Medical Center for treatment of a gunshot wound about 5 p.m. That was shortly after police were called to East 40th to investigate shots being fired and two men chasing one another through the neighborhood, Miller said.
The investigation into the shooting is ongoing.

Bubba Smith, a former All-Pro football player turned actor and commercial pitchman who delighted TV viewers by wrenching off the tops of "easy-opening cans" of beer, was found dead Wednesday at his Los Angeles home. He was 66.
An earlier version of the photo caption with this article misidentified Jim Kiick of the Miami Dolphis as Jim Klick.
the L.A. County coroner's office said.
A caretaker found Smith at his Baldwin Hills home, police said.
A 6-foot-7, 280-pound defensive end, Smith was the No. 1 NFL draft pick from Michigan State University when he joined the Baltimore Colts in 1967.
He played five seasons for the Colts, which included their upset loss to the New York Jets in Super Bowl III and a victory over the Dallas Cowboys in Super Bowl V. He spent two seasons with the Oakland Raiders and two more with the Houston Oilers before a knee injury ended his career in 1976.
After football, Smith was recruited to the ranks of former professional athletes who appeared as themselves in commercials for Miller Lite beer. He and fellow NFL veteran Dick Butkus were cast as inept golfers and polo players in the TV spots. Smith was also featured solo in one commercial extolling the virtues of the beer, beaming into the camera,
while ripping off the top of the can.
Despite a lucrative contract and widespread popularity, Smith walked away from the job.
"I went back to Michigan State for the homecoming parade last year," Smith told then-Times columnist Scott Ostler in 1986. "I was the grand marshal and I was riding in the back seat of this car. The people were yelling, but they weren't saying, 'Go, State, go!' One side of the street was yelling, 'Tastes great!' and the other side was yelling 'Less filling!'
"Then we go to the stadium. The older folks are yelling 'Kill, Bubba, kill!' But the students are yelling 'Tastes great! Less filling!' Everyone in the stands is drunk. It was like I was contributing to alcohol, and I don't drink. It made me realize I was doing something I didn't want to do."
So he turned to acting in movies and TV, notably playing Moses Hightower in six "Police Academy" movies. He also appeared in a number of TV series, including "Half-Nelson," "Blue Thunder" and "Good Times."
Charles Aaron Smith was born Feb. 28, 1945, in Orange, Texas, and grew up in Beaumont, where his mother was a teacher and his father was his high school football coach.
At Michigan State, Smith became an All-America defensive end for the Spartans, who went 19-1-1 his last two seasons. He also earned a bachelor's degree in sociology.
His brother Tody, a star at USC and in the NFL, later became Bubba's agent.
Information on survivors was not immediately available.

Arcane Shuffle
So here's the proposed spell, created by Valanduil:
Arcane Shuffle
Level: Sor/Wiz 0
Components: V,S,M
Casting Time: 10 minutes
Range: 0 ft.
Target: 20 spellbook pages per level
Duration: Permanent
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: No
This spell reorganizes spells in a wizard's spellbook(s). A wizard casting this spell must write his or her spells in the desired order on a sheet of parchment. This serves as the material component. The cost of a sheet of parchment is 2sp. All spells to be reorganized must be known by the wizard (i.e. if the wizard needs to make a spellcraft check to memorize any of the spells, the spell fails.) This spell can be used to organize spells across multiple spellbooks up to a total of 20 pages per level.
It is mostly a flavor/realism spell. What do you think? Is it abusable in any reasonable way?

Dick Ciccone is one of the members of Milt's Political A-Team. He's also a decorated war veteran, a college professor, a fantastic author, journalist and newsman, and a helluva golfer. He spent decades in the business, including as managing editor of the Chicago Tribune. He's one of the most fascinating people to ever have appeared on the program, with a sublime understanding of Chicago, words, and the political landscape of America.
We realized that we hadn't yet delved into the mind of Dick Ciccone, and it was high time that we did it. What emerged was a truly remarkable look into the evolution of the newspaper business, journalism, and American politics.
We're most grateful to have had Dick Ciccone as a resource for this program in its various iterations. He is a friend, and a great American.

Multi-state partnership announces intent to award contract for next generation of American trains
SACRAMENTO - The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) on behalf of the departments of transportation from Illinois, Michigan, and Missouri issued a Notice of Intent to Award today to Sumitomo Corporation of America to design, build, and deliver 130 bi-level passenger railcars for use in regional intercity rail corridors in California and the Midwest. The Notice of Intent to Award does not signify that a contract has been awarded but that a potential vendor has been identified.
Sumitomo Corporation of America submitted a bid of $352,276,000.
"By pooling our resources, all four states involved in this partnership can purchase the equipment at lower costs because it will be acquired in high volume under one contract," said Caltrans Director Malcolm Dougherty. "These new railcars will help us meet the growing ridership demand on California trains, which is up 53 percent since 2002."
Caltrans and the Illinois Department of Transportation will first conduct a federally required Buy America pre-award audit to verify assembly locations and manufacturing facilities for railcar components. Buy America rules require that all 130 new bi-level cars be assembled in the United States, and that all the major components must be manufactured domestically. The audit will be forwarded to the Federal Railroad Administration prior to the contract award. Sumitomo Corporation of America will also be required to submit insurance policies and performance bonds. A fully executed agreement is expected to be in place by mid-November.
"We are proud to partner with Caltrans and the Midwest Coalition to cost-effectively procure the state-of-the-art passenger railcar equipment needed to address the increasing demand for efficient and convenient passenger rail service throughout the state," said Illinois Transportation Secretary Ann L. Schneider. "With Amtrak ridership at record levels in Illinois and the official purchasing process of the railcars under way, this massive project will continue to boost America's manufacturing and assembling industry and provide improved travel options for the entire Midwest."
California will receive 42 railcars, while the Midwest Coalition, consisting of Illinois, Michigan, and Missouri will receive 88 railcars. Railcars delivered to California will be used on the three state-supported intercity routes, the Capitol Corridor (Sacramento area-Oakland-San Jose), the San Joaquin (San Francisco Bay Area/Sacramento-Bakersfield/Southern California), and the Pacific Surfliner (San Luis Obisbo-Los Angeles-San Diego). The Midwest Coalition will use its new railcars on the following corridors: Blue Water (Chicago-Port Huron), Wolverine (Chicago-Detroit-Pontiac), Pere Marquette (Chicago-Grand Rapids), Illini/Saluki (Chicago-Carbondale), Lincoln Service (Chicago-St Louis), Missouri River Runner (St Louis-Kansas City), Illinois Zephyr/Carl Sandburg (Chicago-Quincy), and future services between Chicago and Dubuque and Chicago and the Quad Cities, with potential extension to Iowa City.
"The collaborative effort of the states working together on selecting a rail equipment manufacturer is an important step toward saving money for all. We appreciate the leadership that Caltrans has taken toward spearheading this effort," said Timothy Hoeffner, Michigan Department of Transportation, director of the Office of Rail. "Michigan is experiencing unprecedented ridership growth, and when the new equipment arrives, this will improve the travel experience and grow passenger rail service even more."
The first railcars are slated for delivery in the fall of 2015, with the final car expected to be delivered in early 2018.
"Today's announcement moves America one step closer to building a transportation system for the 21st Century," said US Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood. "These 130 bi-level railcars will revitalize America's passenger rail manufacturing industry base by creating new jobs up and down the rail supply chain and fostering a stronger market for passenger rail. They will improve passenger service and provide more flexibility for train operations, and because multiple states have – for the first time – pooled their resources and settled on a standardized design, this top of the line equipment can be purchased, repaired, and maintained for the lowest possible price."
Funding for the new rail equipment comes from Federal Railroad Administration grants totaling $808 million. Of these funds, $551 million was reserved to purchase the bi-level railcars; the remainder is slated to fund future locomotive and "trainset" procurements as well as to support project management and oversight expenses. California's share ($168 million) of the grants is supplemented by $42 million from Proposition 1B, a transportation bond approved by California voters in 2006.

Preface I have written this book for those seeking an introduction to art and art history that emphasizes the connections between art and human values. My basic approach is to combine a chronological and thematic structure that focuses on artistic responses to human experience as it both recurs and changes through time. When I was a student in art history, the standard texts analyzed the stylistic changes represented by great works of art. They explained how to differentiate the style of the drapery folds in Romanesque and Gothic sculpture; they elaborated on the stylistic differences between Rubens and Rembrandt. But I and my fellow students were often left wondering, so what? What was the larger human significance of these differences? My professors, on the other hand, introduced a methodology of art analysis that encouraged us to look for the links between the artistic form, expressive content, and social contexts of art. Always, we were made aware of the values and meaning embodied in art and architecture, as also manifest through the process of stylistic change. This led to the satisfying discovery that artists vividly express humanity's deepest-held values, desires, hopes and fears, and that buildings, beyond their formal "textbook" qualities, also serve practical functions, and convey potent symbolic meaning within the larger social fabric of cities. Max Beckmann has, perhaps, expressed art's significance as well as anyone can: "...all important things in art...have always originated from the deepest feelings about the mystery of Being.... It is the quest of our self that drives us along the eternal and never-ending journey we must all make." The joy of sharing such insights with my students and the desire to go beyond mere "art appreciation" inspired this book. Organization ofGreat Themes in Art Most introductory texts have not changed since my student days. They still present art by examining successive styles as they unfold chronologically. Others focus on media, techniques, and design principles. Both approaches isolate art from its larger social contexts -- from the dominant values and ideas of the culture that inspired it. This book seeks to address that imbalance by uniting these two approaches with a thematic structure:Great Themesmoves chronologically through the periods and styles of Western art relating stylistic and technical changes to the social and intellectual context of the period. Introductory sections set the stage for students to understand how works of art express the key values, insights and aspirations of its makers, their patrons, and the surrounding culture. Following each introduction, works of art from the period are grouped and discussed within four themes, each representing a major dimension of human experience: Spiritualityexamines artists' expressions of religious faith, spiritual aspiration, and humanity's place in the universe. A wide range of works introduces students to artists' changing responses to this universal, powerful dimension of human life. Students will also see how religious art reflects the powerful and changing role of the Christian church in Western culture. The Selfencompasses works that express social and political values. In these sections, we consider artists' perceptions of themselves and others -- as well as their expressions of the way otherswishto be perceived. Students will discover art that projects and enhances royal and aristocratic power and vanity; art that reflects on middle class domestic life; art that constructs and reinforces gender roles; and art that explores humanity's search for meaning in an uncertain, modern world. The final chapters introduce students to artists' expressions of outrage and despair in the years after two world wars. Students will also encounter artists' reactions to the consumer culture of the post- war years andE.
