If you don't know Elaine Kurtz' work, you'll be immediately struck by her meticulous sense of craft; all of her paintings declare their palpable solidity as objects that demand attention. They bring to mind contemporary resonances, as well; many Philadelphia artists employ similar rigor in their approach and dedication to varied kinds of nature-based pictorial form and abstraction.
This dialogue between Kurtz' art and that of her peers is the organizing principle behind the exhibition, "Elemental: Nature as Language in the Works of Philadelphia Artists," currently on view at Woodmere Art Museum through April 22. The assembled works, presented alongside a Kurtz retrospective at the museum, share a deference or willful manipulation of the many guises of nature's elemental materiality, illusiveness and dominating force.
Kurtz was a great colorist, yet one whose approach was restrictive; there is no decorative impulse, but rather a use of color for its power to generate visual effect. In her work of the 1970s, Kurtz experimented with color on a grand scale, juxtaposing warm and cool hues that produce illusions of shifting form and light.
For Kurtz, the experiments with color and line in her earliest paintings evolved into atmospheric constructions in which cool and warm veils of overlapping speckles, as if from a sprayer, interact as active pictorial zones. The overall effect is that of a field of color.
The rich possibilities of creating ambiguity through painterly "atmosphere" were a consistent fascination for Kurtz's peers. Murray Dessner creates a perfect marriage of luminous color and soft cloud-like form in "Café au Lait" (2010), which offers the viewer an ongoing perceptual enigma, an ambiguous figure-ground relationship in warm gold tones.
Neysa Grassi pushes atmospheric painting to its organic limit, building layers of paint that are materially dense, sometimes seeming to adhere into a skin, but which appear to dematerialize when the viewer steps back. Grassi's "Underbelly" (2008) places the viewer in a kind of figurative realm. Meanwhile Diane Burko's photographs walk the delicate line between nature and abstraction, setting the bar high for recording the sublime beauty of natural forms.
For Kurtz and for many artists, there is joy in the density, elegance, crudity and infinite variety of natural materials and the treatment of paint as a natural substance (mineral mixed with a medium). Keith Ragone applies oil paint like thick, beautiful mud or makes it akin to viscous, black tar that has so much presence as to suggest the acrid smell of a petroleum-based substance.
In a work like "Wolf Lichen" (1997), with its green and gray slathers and accretions, Ragone provides hints of an ordered pattern in ochre stripes. In "Kristie" (2003), Kevin Strickland combines acrylic paint and sawdust to make a dense, material substance with depth and weight.
An artist's legacy can be measured by its continuing relevance to subsequent generations of artists and their ongoing conversations about the nature of art. These interrelationships are the very substance that sustains our city's vibrant artistic culture. "Elemental" is not only a tribute to Elaine Kurtz, but also an opportunity to tell the stories of artists who share her fascination with incorporating natural substances as elements in the arts.
William R. Valerio is the Patricia Van Burgh Allison Director and CEO of Woodmere Art Museum. This article is excerpted from the exhibition catalogue for "Elaine Kurtz: A Retrospective and Elemental: Nature as Language in the Works of Philadelphia Artists," on view through April 22, $10 ($7 for seniors), Woodmere Art Museum, 9201 Germantown Ave., 215-247-0476, woodmereartmuseum.org.

See more photos of the multi-million condo on the Hawiian island of Kauai
CALGARY — An Alberta-based company has set a record by purchasing the most expensive condo ever on the Hawaiian island of Kauai.
The Luxus Group, a real estate investment company in Sherwood Park just outside of Edmonton, has purchased a $3.34 million penthouse condo in Koloa Landing at Poipu Beach, a Wyndham Grand Resort.
"The decision to purchase at Koloa Landing was easy," said Stephen Petasky, president of The Luxus Group. "Our objective is to maintain a real estate portfolio of exceptional properties which provide the highest standard of luxury in some of the world's most desirable locations. This penthouse hits the mark."
This transaction brings the total sales volume to just over $35.5 million closed since the properties' opening in November 2010.
Koloa Landing, a 25 acre master-planned development, is the newest luxury resort to be built in Poipu. Condominiums range in size from 1,100 to over 3,000 interior square feet with prices ranging from $799,000 to $3.5 million. The resort currently features two lagoon style pools, a spa and fitness centre, a marketplace and sundry shop, underground parking, and two direct walking paths to the ocean, shopping and dining. At its completion, Koloa Landing will include 323 two, three, and four bedroom fully-furnished condominiums, two additional lagoon-style pools, a poolside grille and bar, as well as a special event facility.

American Idols Live! in Uncasville, Connecticut – Exclusive Photos
Season 11 of 'American Idol' concluded with the crowning of victor Phillip Phillips; but as the saying goes, the show must go on. Top 10 finalists fans came to know and love over the course of the season -- Phillips, Jessica Sanchez, Joshua Ledet, Hollie Cavanagh, Skylar Laine, Elise Testone, Colton Dixon, DeAndre Brackensick, Heejun Han and Erika Van Pelt -- are currently out on tour bringing TV stardom to the concert stage and allowing fans across the country the opportunity to hear and see them perform live before the next season kicks off.
The 2012 class of 'Idol' rolled into the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. on Sat. Sept. 2 for close to three hours of live performances and memorable group collaborations. Whether it was the boys working together to deliver their version of Neon Tree's 'Everyone Talks' or each contestant getting their own moment to shine performing solo numbers (like Joshua Ledet's soulful rendition of 'It's a Man's Man's World' or Elise Testone's rockin' take on 'Whole Lotta Love'), the night was an all-you-can-eat buffet of the last season of 'American Idol.'
Winner Phillip Phillips wasn't seen much until after the intermission when he came out to perform five songs, kicking it off with Stevie Wonder's funky 'Superstitious.' His set also included the Goyte smash hit 'Somebody That I Use to Know' with Elise Testone singing the female vocal.
Although the show was primarily made up of cover songs that the contestants had sung throughout the competition, Colton Dixon did deliver an impressive original track called 'Never Gone,' proving the depth of his talent.
The evening culminated with the whole touring cast uniting to taking the stage together to perform the Pink anthem 'Raise Your Glass' and 'Glad You Came' by the Wanted, closing out the evening on a high note and giving Season 12 something to strive for.
Check out our exclusive photos from the show below.

An update on my slaves chastity punishment.
The cock cage has been on my slave for quite a while now. The regular viagra training with orgasm denial has really taught the poor fucker a lesson. Of course lately he has been begging for release, talking about his blue balls and how nothing could possibly be worse than the pain he was experiencing right now. He also insisted that he would do anything, absolutely anything if I would allow him to cum. So I decided that stage 2 of his punishment was in order. Nothing a bit of brutal cbt can't cure *evil grin*
Yesterday morning I woke him up with a swift kick in the stomach wearing my favorite ballbusting boots. Tight black leather boots that lace up to my knees with a sharp but sturdy 4″ stiletto heel. As he groaned I told him that if he is lucky today I might give him the opportunity to cum. Like a puppy dog his face perked up and suddenly it was as if I told him he won the lottery or something.
I took off his cage and told him to get on his knees and spread his legs apart. He was going to experience the cock and ball torture session of his life! I started by circling around him… I told him I wanted to hear him beg to cum. He started to whine and beg on command like a pathetic whore. I took care of it by swiftly kicking him in the balls 5 times in a row. At first he was shocked and then he simply doubled over in pain. I looked down at him on the ground and just spit right in his face.
You say you want to cum… prove it… if you are still begging to cum by the end of this session I will let you… of course by the time I am done with you, you will probably never cum again. Not because you will be locked up, although you will be but simply because you will be physically unable to cum. I laughed as I slammed my spiked heel right into his left testicle.
We continued for several hours. I forced him to stroke and edge over and over again and each time he got to the edge I would kick him in the balls the same number of minutes it took him to edge from the last one. So if it took him 20 minutes to edge the first time he got 20 kicks if it took him 5 minutes the next time he got 5 kicks etc. I created a mixture of cayenne pepper and cinnamon oil and forced him to rub it on his balls and then using sounds force it down his cock. The burning was incredible and the screams put a smile to my face.
I then forced him to go on webcam so a few of my friends could watch him as he tried to pee. It was so agonizing.
Then my friends and I took turns punishing and humiliating him. By the time I was done he was begging to never cum again just so I could make the pain stop.
When I finally tired of him I put a soap gag in his mouth, I gave him an ice cold enema and left his cock and balls covered in the cayenne concoction. I also decided to be nice and opened a can of cat food and dumped it on the floor. I kept him tied up and told him that when I came back in the morning there better not be a thing on the floor. I also left the webcam running all night so that anyone who wanted would be able to tune in and watch how he struggled, suffered and cried the entire night. Him eating that bar of soap was particularly amusing… especially since he knew that the floor had to be spotless when I returned.
Stay tuned for the next part of his punishment.
Till next time…

The website (http://www.mytradingnetwork.com) is a social network for traders where traders can go to learn or share their experiences.. I want "My Trading Network" in the logo but I would like an Icon as well showing we are a social trading network. Possibly find a way to incorporate the My to show we are a social network for traders and we can use that icon for things such as our ico image or just as our branding. I like the blue and green colors used on http://99designs.com/contests/16766 possibly the orange as well along with a dark grey or black. I also like the colors of chatroll.com. I would like logo designed in vector format as well as jpeg.

They were not originally "green tipped" but some dip sticks sold as service replacements are. The picture you posted with the flatened handle end looks more like what I would expect to see as production line pieces.-Mark.
From what I found it seems like the earlier cars had the green tip possibly, and then at one point switched to the flat tip. I don''t know if this was a Z/28 thing only or all small blocks.

Nokia is not the only game in town when it comes to Windows Phone 8 as HTC is doing an admirable job with their Windows Phone 8X offering. And although Verizon began selling both the Lumia 822 and 8X this week, it appears that these phones are in tight supply.
If you head to Verizon's website you'll now see the HTC 8X stamped with a "Will Ship by 11/27" notice and that's for all colors--California Blue, Black and Verizon Red. We already knew of a delay with the 8X so this clears things up a little bit, as to when they will be back in stock.
There's no word on what exactly is causing the delay but 8X's have been difficult to find in AT&T stores as well, so it's not a Verizon issue as far as we know. But if you pre-ordered the 8X from big Red and have yet to receive it, you may be in for yet another short wait.
Edit: As pointed out in comments, check your local Verizon Store too as some have "plenty of stock", probably from initial shipments.

We began a watercolor sketching expedition yesterday in Galway city, Ireland yesterday where our son Dan has been living for the last year.
Dan has a regular session gig at the Tig Cóilí pub on Mainguard Street in Galway. Yesterday he played a few tunes with the great bodhrán player Johnny Ringo McDonagh, fiddler Mick Conneelly and 18-year-old all-Ireland fiddler Dylan Foley.
De Dannan co-founder Dolores Keane sat by Dan's side and thrilled us all with her rendition of "Galway Bay," with Dan accompanying on his Paolo Soprani accordion.
They all headed off for more gigs, so we walked through the mist to see the old boats resting on the mossy rocks of the harbor at low tide. Black crows and white swans convened around us, hungrily eyeing our McVitie's Digestives.

Our aim is to automate the extraction of knowledge and understanding from data. Allowing machines (and humans) to understand what is happening and to acquire new skills and learn new things. We achieve this by developing new probabilistic modelsWomen''s Pink Flats lt rose 516 Tamaris Ballet 22110 Crack fwPfZd and deriving algorithms capable of learnings these models from data. The systematic use of probability in representing and manipulating these models is key. It allows us to represent not only what we know, but to some extent also what we do not know.

September 5, 2018 [Paper accepted for Superga Gymnastics white Shoes 900 leapatentw 2790 Women's White rv6zqr]Red Burgundy Women's Ankle Boots Qatena burgundy Baker Ted This work deals with decision making for dynamical systems in the presence of uncertainty. More specifically, the problem we address lies at the intersection of reinforcement learning and robust control, and can be summarized as follows: given observations from an unknown dynamical system, we seek a policy to optimize the expected cost (as in reinforcement learning), subject to certain robust stability guarantees (as in robust control).
We have for a long time been developing algorithms to learn probabilistic models of dynamical systems from measured data. This is the first work where we are trying to make use of these models to build controllers with stability guarantees. The recent series of blog posts (nicely summarized in Slip Uin Comfort Torres Women's On Linen Shoes O4qA860) of Ben Recht was a great source of inspiration for our work.

Welcome!
September 1, 2018 [Paper accepted for Nuclear inst. and methods in physics research section B] In this paper we present our new results on modelling and reconstruction of strain fields, relying upon data generated from neutron Bragg-edge measurements. This is an application of our Gaussian process construction from Superga Gymnastics white Shoes 900 leapatentw 2790 Women's White rv6zqr 2017 that correctly accounts for known linear constraints. More specifically the strain field is modelled as a Gaussian process, assigned a covariance structure customised by incorporation of the so-called equilibrium constraints. The results indicate a high potential and we hope that this will inspire the concept of probabilistic modelling to be used within other tomographic applications as well.

When playing the beta for the first time I found an easy way to unlock these 2 classes.
When you receive the corresponding quests and dungeons for these races you will go into them and will find a staircase. In the staircase you will find a character and he will ask for a health potion. You then can give him a potion. (do it). You may then just leave the dungeon through the exit staircase and unlock the new races (you must do it once for each race). You don't even have to beat the boss.
Was this done on purpose or is this an exploit?

Comic 453: Hurricane Invasion!
The Freud one makes me think Randall is fully committed to the wide (and satisfying!) world of dick jokes. Though I must say - and if this starts another long conversation in the comments, so be it - that even though I think Freud was basically always wrong, he did, in fact have ideas apart from stuff sometimes looks like a penis. That's basically all most people know about him now; this is not limited to xkcd alone, of course. But you know, he had lots of other stuff to say about early childhood development and shit like that.
And I must say - I was very surprised to see Randall include cos(x) here but not make it actually a cosine graph. He could have zoomed out just a tad, to include the equator, and made the origin the place where the equator hits the left side of the panel, and made the cos graph start at its highest point and go down from there. It's nearly a sin graph as it is.
Anyone else have any thoughts on this one? I basically have nothing.

early childhood development? not nearly as funny as dicks.ReplyDelete
also, if a hurricane were to straddle the equator like that, constantly crossing the line back and forth, it would keep on going from hurricane to cyclone, all switching spin directions each time, it'd just be confusing.ReplyDelete
The hurricanes and their funny trails work well, but the alternate text leaves me dry. He wants to see a flood of Manhattan? I don't see how that ties into any of the hurricanes in the comic, nor does it make sense in the context of any pop culture references I know. So he's either laid a joke out for whoever knows that reference or he'd just like to see Manhattan (but a bit west) take hurricane damage. What?ReplyDelete
Bill - you are right that dick stuff was the funniest of freud's stuff (at least of the stuff I know, which is only very little) but I guess what withReplyDelete
that one comic a while back I was expecting randall to not rely on those jokes so much,
In any case, I guess he should still get credit for pointing out that florida looks like a penis DAMN NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT ONE BEFORE.
Yes, a hurricane moving across the equator would have to switch which direction it went. That is the ONLY problem with this comic. Damn.
Thomas - You are right, and usually the alt-text is funnier than the comic (even when the comic is good). If he just wants to read a realistic description of New York getting destroyed, he should read The World Without Us by Alan Weisman.
Not sure what he has against New York.
Freud's funniest thing is the Oedipus complex, where he asserts that /every male child ever/ has at one point wanted to murder his father and marry his mother.ReplyDelete
Or at least I think it is.
I agree. That is pretty funny. I also think it's funny how he's so sure that all his wacky ideas are not just right, but they are right all the time for all people. It's such a ridiculous claim.ReplyDelete
You gotta give him credit. He got people interested in psychology. He just didn't contribute many useful ideas. Or when he did, he didn't... do anything to verify them, he just said 'this is right.' Not very scientific, Sigmund.ReplyDelete
- Locutus ZeroJuly 28, 2008 at 8:35 AM
Freud is someone who deserves to be on the left side of that, yes. But don't let him ruin the whole field of psychology/psychoanalysis for you.ReplyDelete

"and three hurricanes designed to make special shapes which are not even close to the usual shape of hurricanes!"ReplyDelete
that's somehow the whole point, didn't you see the "tron" movie? that explains the blue and red hurricanes
Um yes I did get the joke, or attempt at a joke. Of course that's the point. Just like the "point" of Hurricane Freud (which, now that I think about it, would actually be a pretty good name for a hurricane) is to look like a dick.ReplyDelete
My tepid response was not because I didn't get the joke (because I did); it was because I didn't find it all that amusing.
Thanks for assuming I'm a dumbass though, I assure you I am returning the favor.
- DoubleBlackbirdDecember 4, 2008 at 10:40 AM
Man I wouldn't normally post on old reviews such as this but I have to know: was the misspelling of 'cos(x)' intentional? Like, an ironic Freudian 'slip' to highlight the Florida-and-Freud-related smut in the comic?ReplyDelete
'Cause it sho' do sound funny when you say it out loud. Cox x. Hur hur hur.
i'm going to go ahead and pretend it was on purpose. And also change it to Cos.ReplyDelete

I just found your blog, and I like a lot of what you're saying (working my way from most recent to least at the moment). I should point this out:ReplyDelete
If it's too long, I'll summarize: hurricanes don't form near the equator, and there are good reasons why they're unlikely to cross (much less multiple times). This guy isn't aware of anyone ever observing one crossing the equator, though it's possible. I point this out because the problem with this one is less obvious than the silliness of the other tracks.

Driving in Spain

- >What types of fuel are available in Spain?
- >What do you need to drive in Spain?
- >What are the safety measures you should know about in Spain?

- >Do you have to pay to use the roads in Spain?
- How should children travel?
There are certain considerations to be taken into account when travelling with children in a passenger car:It is prohibited to carry children in your arms. No child with a height of less than 136 centimetres may occupy a front seat, unless a device approved for the purpose is used and there is no possibility of the child occupying a back seat. Children under 3 must use an approved restraint system suitable for their height and weight and must always be placed in the back seat. Any person over three years of age with a height of less than one and a half metres must use a restraint system adapted to their size and weight.Driving motorcycles or mopeds with children under 12 as passengers is prohibited.These instructions also apply to taxis, so if you want to travel with a baby in a taxi, you must carry an approved restraint system.
- How can you find out about the road conditions?
In Spain you can find out real-time road conditions through the website of the Department of Transportation (http://infocar.dgt.es/etraffic/). Also, radio stations provide information about roads in their news programmes.
- How can you pay a fine?
Traffic violations sanctioned in the Road Safety Act must always be paid. The competent national sanctioning body is the Directorate-General of Traffic, through its authority officers. When paying these fines there are various options:Using the telephone number 060 (from Spain): the service is in Spanish only. Payment is made by credit card.Online: on the Virtual Headquarters website of the Directorate-General of Traffic in Spain.At branches of La Caixa (Caixabank).At Spanish post offices. At the Provincial Traffic Offices by credit or debit cardIn all cases you will need the file number of the fine.If the fine is paid within 20 calendar days there is a 50% reduction on the amount of the fine.If the fine was issued by a local authority on an urban road, it is advisable to refer directly to the traffic department in the City Council.
- What types of fuel are available in Spain?
Spain's service stations mainly dispense the following fuels:95-octane unleaded petrol 98-octane unleaded petrol Diesel A BiodieselOn the website of the Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Tourism (http://geoportalgasolineras.es/), you can find all the stations in Spain, the type of fuel supplied and the price.
- What do you need to drive in Spain?
Be 18 years old or over:
To drive in Spain you must be 18 years old or over. To hire a vehicle, 21 years old or over. Many companies also require you to have had your driving licence for a minimum of one or two years. Remember that you must also have a credit card when hiring the vehicle.
A current driving licence:
If you come from a member state of the EU, Norway, Iceland or Liechtenstein, you only need to carry your current driving licence. If coming from a country other than the above, you must have an International Driving Licence.
Given that conditions may vary, we suggest you contact the Spanish Embassy or Consulate to verify these requirements before you start your trip.
- What are the safety measures you should know about in Spain?
Road safety regulations: there are a series of road safety regulations you must be aware of when driving in Spain. They are as follows: - Talking on a mobile phone is prohibited while driving, unless you use a hands-free system. - Car radios and mobile phones must be switched off while re-fuelling. - A reflective jacket must be used when getting out of the car on the road or the hard shoulder. - Warning triangles must be deployed if the vehicle has stopped on the road or hard shoulder. - The installation and use of devices designed to elude surveillance by traffic police is strictly prohibited. - Overtaking can only be done on the left side of the car which you wish to pass. - It is advisable to use your lights during the day in order to improve your visibility. Furthermore: - Established speed limits must be obeyed: 120 km/h on dual carriageways and motorways, 100 km/h on conventional roads, 90 km/h on all other roads and 50 km/h in built-up areas. - Alcohol levels in the bloodstream must not exceed 0.5 g/l (0.25 mg/l in exhaled air). - Seatbelts must be worn by driver and all passengers, in front and back seats. - Helmets must be worn on motorbikes, mopeds and bicycles. - Parking in public thoroughfares is not always permitted or free. In many cities the parking areas are regulated and subject to payment. Normally these can be identified by the presence of parking meters in the vicinity.
- Do you want to travel to Spain in your car?
Tourists travelling in their own vehicles should be aware that the following documentation is required:
Driver's license: see section on "What documentation is required to drive in Spain?" Temporary registration certificate: It is valid for six months and you can request it at customs.
Motor insurance:
If you are a citizen of an EU member state, Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Croatia, you only need to carry your insurance policy along with a payment receipt showing validity of the policy.
If you come from Albania, Andorra, Bulgaria, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Byelorussia, Israel, Iran, Morocco, Moldavia, Macedonian Republic, Rumania, Serbia, Montenegro, Tunisia, Turkey or the Ukraine, you will need to get a Green Card –the International Motor Insurance Certificate.
If you are from a country not mentioned above, you should take out a Frontier Insurance policy (a temporary, obligatory, third party policy for motor vehicles).
Given that conditions may vary, we suggest that you contact the Spanish Embassy or Consulate to verify these requirements before you start your trip.
- Do you have to pay to use the roads in Spain?
In Spain, the vast majority of roads in the national network are free to use. These include motorways (independent roads in each direction and with no intersections at the same level).Nevertheless, there is a series of highways that may require the payment of a toll. These are the motorways. The amount to pay varies in each case, but there are alternative routes that are generally free to use.You can check the highways that require toll payment on this website.Tolls may be paid in cash, by credit card or using electronic toll services (requires installation of a device in the car)Remember that there are S.O.S. posts along the toll roads approximately every one-and-a-half miles.

Messy Application and Need Advice
March 23, 2011, 09:58:54 PM »
This will be my first post, so hello. I'm here because I'm in desperate need of quality advice. Long story short, I have a somewhat messy academic record. My lsac gpa is a 2.71 which puts me at a huge disadvantage, I also have 2 absences from the LSAT because I missed the cancellation deadlines. When I started college my transcript sucked!! I racked up 12 w's, 2 F's, and 3 D's
. During the spring semester of my junior I was caught with beer in my dorm room by an RA and I was put on disciplinary probation. This was my only offense. I graduated in December with my BA, and my last few semesters were around 3.0's. My final semester I racked up 19 hours of credit and 6 hours of CLEP with a 3.05 gpa. SO I know my record sucks so please don't feel the need to rub it in too much. I'm writing this because I need some good, genuine advice from fellow pre laws and law students. I'm would like to sign up for the June LSAT, but I don't know if it would even be worth it with my record. I've spent the last 3 months since graduation trying to figure things out and the conclusion that I've reached is that I want to be an attorney. I would like to try to avoid T4's mainly because of the employment prospects and ROI. Would it be possible to gain acceptance anywhere decent, and possibly receive some scholarship money? Is an LSAT attempt worth it? I welcome all advice, thanks in advance
BTW, I have no idea what to put in an addendum, other than that I was an unmotivated lazy a**, who had a hard time adapting to a city larger than 2000.

Well, the first thing I'd suggest is you try one of Kaplan's free simulated LSATs. That would give you an idea of whether you'd be able to come up with an LSAT score high enough to offset your GPA.
The second thing I'd suggest is start putting into words the reason you decided becoming an attorney was the right path for you. You might be able to use some of it as part of your personal statement. From what I understand, it's not unheard of for someone who was unmotivated in undergrad to turn their life around and do well in graduate school.
Good luck!

Hmmm... not sure what to say, here. It's going to be a fight for you, especially right now.
My first choice school is a 4T (due to location and my personal circumstances), and I was accepted with a 3.01/159. However, they were wait-listing other applicants. So, it's competitive now, even for T4s.
Your GPA is really going to be a hindrance. Your only shot is to beat the living snot out of the LSAT. I mean, you will probably need to pull down like a 165 or better unless you can find a place that will read your personal statement.
I wouldn't count too much on that, though. Admissions is pretty much all based on LSAT and GPA. The US News Rankings have really reduced it to that and very little else.
As a side note, I applied to a T2 and just got my rejection notice. I think during other times, I would have gotten in. (I actually got into the MBA program at the same school, and at the time, the MBA program was #47 in USN&WR.) However, with the crappy economy, EVERYBODY is applying to law school. Not just all the recent baccalaureate graduates, but folks with 2 years worth of unemployment benefits, folks who just got let go but have a severance package, etc.
Down economies produce an abundance of applicants to schools.
There are certainly schools that will take a chance on you, but they're way down in the 4T. If you're determined not to go to a 4T school, I don't mean to discourage you, but I don't think you have a realistic shot.
Now, that being said, 4T has a few things going for it.
First, if you graduate first in your class from any school, you will get opportunities. Might even be able to work biglaw.
Thing is, you need to graduate maybe 1st, 2nd or 3rd in your class to get those opportunities from a T4, where you might be able to get them with a top 10% from a T2 or a top 20% from a T1.
Second, you CAN transfer. If you do well in 1L year, there is some T2 school, somewhere, that will let you transfer in. For transfer applicants, LSAT and GPA are very small factors and sometimes they are complete non-factors.
Now, this only applies if you show up to your T4 school and kick some major butt. However, if that's not what you're planning on doing, then it won't matter what school you graduate from: you will not get a job in the law unless your dad's name is on the letterhead of the firm.
Right now, Law School is a really dog-eat-dog proposition. Graduate at the top? You'll do well. If you skate on through and graduate middle of the pack, you're going to be screwed. It'll basically much worse than a graduate degree in the humanities, because at least with a Ph.D. in Humanities, you can teach somewhere.

A few things:
1. You will probably need LSAT in 170's for scholarship money at a T4 school. I don't think you will be offered scholarship at anything higher. Generally schools offer it to students who up both the LSAT and GPA averages. You need to be at least 75th % on LSAT and above median GPA, but most require 75th % in both.
2. There is a lot of doom and gloom on law student websites about job prospects. I would bet good money that the employment number for people who graduate in the top 50% of law class, pass the bar, and had at least 1 law-related job experience during law school, is close to 90% within 6 months. Are they making 100K+? Probably not. The people with jobs after law school don't have time to get on the internet and complain about job prospects.
There are often huge disparities in job prospects for different T4 schools that are market specific. You should identify these rankings before going to law school. There are many T4 schools that are well respected in their legal communities. It all depends where you want to live/practice.
3. Your addendums will be short and simple. Your background won't keep you out of law school with an adequate LSAT, which should be your primary focus until you crush it. Plan on taking a live prep course. It will be a great investment.
4. You didn't tell us why you think law school is a good idea for you. Generally those who go into college thinking they want to be a lawyer do a little better. Why now?
5. Law school applications are down in number by more than 10% right now. But, the % of people coming in with their eyes wide open to the realities of law school is much higher. So, even though applications are down, competition for those seats remains tough.

Utilizing Eastwood's Metal Forming Tools - Pounding Metal
Utilizing Eastwood's Metal Forming Tools
During our visit at Empire Fabrication a couple issues back, we noticed the intricate rear suspension display that was currently in the works on a VW Caravelle van. Lots of intricate metal work was being done to cover the 'bags and mounts in the form of metal "blisters" or humps, so we stuck around for a quick metal shaping lesson.
With the use of assorted tools from Eastwood, Sean Ramage walked us through the process of forming, shrinking, pounding, and hammering metal in the name of custom fabrication, and shared a couple tricks along the way. Read up and take a few notes.

Good morning all!
This scone recipe is great. I have used one like it before and it always works. There is also a substitution of soda water for lemonade (soda water in Australia is carbonated water, not mineral water. Haven't found it here in France yet) which works really well and is good for those who don't want the sugar from the lemonade. Diet lemonade doesn't seem to work as well, think it might be the sugar substitute that changes the texture and flavour. I always used a pouring consistency cream in the mix. Not sure if that was correct or not as my recipe just said "cream", but it worked well.
I love this recipe with chopped dried dates added to it. Date scones are just fabulous, especially when just out of the oven. Just watch that you don't burn your mouth like I usually do on red hot melting dates..... patience is a virtue which I just can't seem to master sometimes.
If you cannot feel your arteries hardening, eat more cheese. If you can, drink more red wine. Diet is just "die" with a "t" on the end. Exercise is walking into the kitchen.

...I will pop this answer in... (sorry for the bad joke)
thickened cream in Australia is a cream which has had a gelatine product added to it. This makes it whip into a thick cream with soft peaks. It is not as heavy as clotted cream. You can pour it from the container, but when whipped it becomes thick.
If I was making a pastry and wanted to layer it high with cream and other goodies, I would add a teaspoon of vanilla pudding powder (a powder which you mix with milk to make a milk pudding type dessert) and then whip the cream. It makes it go extra thick and also extends the shelf life of the cream as the powder has a presevative in it. Really good when you want to pipe the cream and not have it melt or be shaken out of shape if taking it somewhere. Doesn't really change the taste, just adds a slight vanilla flavour.

Debbie, isn't
carbonnated water?
Barbara, I'm absolutely reeling at the idea of scones made with coke and chocolate chips. I'd love to see a Scot's dour look of disapproval!
Interesting idea to use fizzy water in scones though. I've heard of using it in batter for frying - I gather it lightens the batter.
Thanks for posting your scone recipe Judy! It makes me realize that there are probably as many different scone recipes out there as there are people who emigrated from Scotland. Who knows? Maybe there are more!

Hi Judy, I'll try your scones, with sprite ( the Australian lemonade!)Thanks
Hi to syrenmuse,
Unfortunately the family recipe of Humentachen was lost with my grandma's death ( about 25 years ago). My mother ( age 86!!) doesn't do them, and my grandchildern don't like them. They prefer Mc. donald. But I will always remember their taste. As a child I lived in Bucharest and Purim was the one time in year my grandma came to visit us.
Do you have any family recipe?
But what I would like most, is to learn where is that super=liberal synagogue which allows "Drag Queen Esther Race" !! I would like to have one in my neighbourhood!!
PS : When will your website be ready?

Good evening!
Badoit is actually a mineral water that is carbonated. It has a flavour to it similar to mineral water (sparkling type). Soda water has no flavour at all and does not have all the minerals in it that badoit and other brands of mineral water do.... at least in Australia...... elsewhere in the world they might have different definitions.
Maybe you could substitute it if you wanted to make a savoury scone, but I don't know how good it would taste for a sweet one? Anyone want to give it a try???
If you cannot feel your arteries hardening, eat more cheese. If you can, drink more red wine. Diet is just "die" with a "t" on the end. Exercise is walking into the kitchen.

Debbie's post above on Tue Mar 22, 2005 11:20 am explains what thickened cream is - a quick read of the labels of different types of cream in your local supermarket fridge should help you find one that has gelatine in it.

Post subject: Re: Scones
Okay, for those of us (mainly me) who are slow on the uptake: what we're talking about here, translated into American-ese is:
Biscuits, not Scones like at Starbucks
7 Up, not lemonaide made from lemons, water and sugar
And light cream with gelatin, right?
My partner is Scottish and we're constantly doing translations of "What did you say??"
For example"
Scottish: Jelly U.S.: Jello
Scottish:Pudding U.S.:Dessert
Scottish: Lemonade U.S.: Any light-colored carbonated soda
Scottish: Cream cakes U.S.: Any pastry filled with custard like eclairs, Napoleons, etc.
So, whenever she requests something from the store, I have to ask her, "Describe the food for me," so that I can make sure there's no disappointment when I come back home!

Oh, you're SO right, rebecca! When I first met Sally, through the Internet, she would end our IM's or conversations with "Oooo, I have to go to "tea" now and we're having tasty "pudding", too."
For months, I couldn't figure out why her family kept making such a big deal over
, the drink, and why every dessert was
, the cornstarch and milk dessert.
It was months and months later that I found out, in a laugh-filled conversation, that her family's "tea" is OUR dinner/supper and "pudding" could be ANYTHING for dessert (pie, cake, ice cream),
but never, EVER under any circumstances actual PUDDING
the stuff that Bill Cosby would pitch to little kids in America. Apparently, according to Sally, our pudding is considered swill overseas!
We still laugh about the language barrier almost daily.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Touting a roster with seven new faces, a new head coach and two new assistant coaches, the Lipscomb women's basketball team may be hard to recognize this year.
The Lady Bisons usher in a new era with head coach Greg Brown, the first time in 32 years a new face will roam the sideline, as Lipscomb held its first official practice today.
"It was good to have a longer time on the court," Lipscomb head coach Greg Brown said. "Over the last week we have started to see improvement. We are starting to see mental toughness. It will be good to evaluate the rest of the week."
Lipscomb has two seniors on the team in Hannah Phillips and Chelsea McMeans. Coach Brown looks for them to step up with the younger players.
"As seniors you look for them to control the locker room," Brown said. "You look for them to lead and take the freshmen and develop them culture wise. Both of them bring a tremendous amount of energy and that should be every single day. They need to be able to take care of the intangibles and teach the intangibles."
Also returning for the Lady Bisons are juniors O'Neisha Smith and Jess Reece. The sophomore class includes Jana Wright, Shanice Burnette, Sasha Robinson and Erika Thornsberry.
Phillips is the leading returning scorer as she averaged 11.1 points per game and will be in pursuit of the 1,000-point club as she has played to 726 career points. Phillips also hauled in 5.4 rebounds a contest as well. Robinson was second on the team with 4.8 rebounds per game with Smith a close third, 4.2 rebounds.
The newcomers include sophomore transfer Ashley Southern, coming from UT-Chattanooga. The freshman class includes Mallory Charpentier, Kelli Smith, Helena Pouengue, Alex Banks, Ta 'Keyha Flowers and Presley Stastny.
"The freshmen have a lot of opportunities to step in," Brown said. "The way we'll play will be conducive to them stepping in. They will need to identify their roles, accept them and we'll move on from there."
The Lady Bisons open with a home exhibition game on Thursday, Nov. 1 at 7 p.m. in Allen Arena against Freed-Hardeman. The regular season tips off on Friday, Nov. 9, with a 6 p.m. contest at Gardner-Webb in Boiling Springs, N.C.

Meulka necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 190 diseños de 25 diseñadores freelance.
Little Dot. Big Difference. (http://www.littledotbigdifference.com)
Me two years ago: wife, newborn at home, well paying job that I did not like, un-inspired, stuck, unbalanced
Me today: happy wife, proud PARENT, 0 income, job I LOVE, inspired, free, balanced.
Quitting my job and getting my priorities straight for me and my family was the best thing I have ever done. I have lots of business experience, skills, creativity, drive and a huge heart...and I want to package it all up and give it all back to the community, so I started Little Dot Big Difference to do just that. It's a t-shirt clothing company that will give all proceeds to non-profits of the buyer's choice. Here's how it will work:
- Each shirt will incorporate a dot into the design. Design to change annually
- Shirts will be bought online
- Buyer will pick the non-profit to donate the shirt proceeds to. Total donations will display on website.
- Buyer will think 'what a cool shirt and a great idea'
- Buyer will tell others about a great little company
- More shirts will be purchased
- People will begin to recognize the Little Dot Big Difference LOGO that YOU created
- BAM! The little dot shirts will start making a difference in this world and a movement will be underway!
My vision is to dress the world in Little Dot Big Difference shirts. Wouldn't it be wonderful if you designed the LOGO for such a great little company!
Men, woman, kids, infants who wear t-shirts
People who support non-profits that do not want to wear a flashy 'charity' shirt
People who want to be part of a giving t-shirt movement
Little Dot Big Difference is fresh, hip, minimal and all about giving. I need a logo that reflects this image and inspires people to join the Little Dot Big Difference shirt movement.
The shirt design will change annually/seasonally, however, the logo/icon will print on every shirt and remain the same...just like the 'Nike' swoosh.
I would love to have the logo incorporate a dot and here are a few things to think about:
1. Colors are nice, just not too many. The logo will primarily be used on the website and shirts, so printing costs should be kept in mind when choosing the number of colors.
2. The text 'LIttle Dot. Big Difference.' should be included in the logo, the typeface should be clear and simple
3. I'd like to include an "icon" that we can use alongside the logo (or as part of the logo). This will also be used in place of the full logo around the site and on the shirts. When people see the icon, they should remember and associate it with Little Dot Big Difference.
4. The logo doesn't have to be complex. Minimal, well thought, great quality with style is more my taste. The more simple the better it will look on a shirt.
5. I have a website http://www.littledotbigdifference.com. This is just a pilot website, the colors, fonts, design on this site do not need to be reflected in your logo design. Rather, the winning logo design will inspire the look and feel of the website.
These are guidelines, but I'm open to your creativity and ideas. Show me what you have and I'll tell you what I think. Thanks for submitting your designs!

PETA wants spay and neuter surgery to be mandatory
* Should spay and neuter surgeries be mandatory for newly adopted pets?
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) thinks so, and put together a petition asking President Obama to make it happen.
PETA is using the Obama administration's new "We the People" petition site to call for a mandatory spay-and-neuter law for all animals adopted from shelters or bought from pet stores, puppy mills, and breeders … "until the nation's overpopulation crisis has abated and all the homeless dogs and cats in the U.S. have homes to call their own."
PETA hoped to be the first to reach 5,000 signatures and have its petition reviewed by the White House administration. As of Friday, it had 9,595 signatures.
"We needed to gather 5,000 signatures in 30 days," said PETA spokesperson Kristin Richards. "We had that in 24 hours."
* The Unwanted Horse Fund, which appeared on Colorado state income tax forms for the first time in 2011, raised $88,000 to help with unwanted horse programs.
"Raising this much money to help the many unwanted horses that are victims of the economy or, unfortunately, someone's ignorance and abuse, is extraordinary and we are so thankful to every taxpayer who donated to the fund," said Hildy Armour, president of the Colorado Unwanted Horse Alliance.
In 2010, Governor Bill Ritter signed into law Senate Bill 10-139, the Unwanted Horse Fund Tax Check-off. The fund is administered by the alliance. An estimated 6,000 horses became unwanted in 2009 in Colorado.

As a community service, the Around Town column will occasionally supplement the Valley Sun 10-20-30 Years Ago feature with news from 19th century. For example, last week, we brought you news from 137 years ago. ("Neighborhood news from 1885," June 13.)
Perhaps in response to the largesse of the Around Town column, LCHS Class of 2013 valedictorian Matt Jones, in one of the world's greatest and most awesome commencement speeches ever, told the audience, "Let's just appreciate the now."
In that spirit, the Around Town column will move forward. We will move forward by five years, half a decade, one twentieth of a century from 1885.
Here is the news from La Cañada 128 years ago in 1890: On Aug. 13, 1890, Los Angeles County Sheriff's sale number 12,228 was announced. "By order of the superior court of the County of Los Angeles, one Catharine Banbury obtained a judgment of foreclosure against Delos Arnold for the sum of $11,610.58." The court ordered the sheriff to sell a big chunk of what turned out to be modern-day La Cañada in order to satisfy the judgment.
The real estate was described as, "All that portion of lot fourteen (14) of the Rancho La Canyada now owned by the said party of the first part, and bounded on the north by the public highway known as Michigan avenue, on the east by the lands of William Banning, on the south by line of said rancho and on the west by the land of Mary C. Ball, formerly Mary C. Williams, and containing forty-five and two-fifths acres of land...."
Look at your title report, fellow La Cañadans. Just about everything south of Foothill is part of the "lot fourteen" of the Rancho La Cañada. Encinas. Descanso Drive. Alta Canyada. Was your house part of the Delos Arnold foreclosure sale?
Who was Delos Arnold? Your sleuths at the Around Town column decided to track him down.
A man named Delos Arnold regularly registered to vote in 1888, 1890 and 1892 in Los Angeles County, but the census report for 1880 show that Delos Arnold was born around 1830 or 1831 in New York. By 1880, he and his wife Hannah were living in Marshall County, Iowa with a brood of children.
His occupation in Iowa was listed on the census as "senetor."
Around Town turned to the seminal source, a reference called History of Marshall County (Iowa) of 1878. It has an entry for a man named Delos Arnold, who was born in Chenango Co., New York on July 21, 1830. He received a law degree from Albany State University in 1853 and arrived in Iowa a few months later. On "the day following his arrival in Marshall Co., he was appointed Prosecuting Attorney. He being the only attorney in the county at that time; he held that office four years."
By 1860, Delos Arnold was forced to give up his practice due to his health, but his health problems did not stop his political career. "He was elected to the State Legislature in 1856, and again in 1869; was elected to the State Senate in 1874...."
Delos Arnold "was appointed by President Lincoln the first Assessor of Internal Revenue of the Sixth District, embracing about one-third of the area of the State, and held the office four years and was removed by Andrew Johnson; for political reasons...."
The legislative history concludes, " Mr. Arnold had nothing when he came here, and few citizens of this State have been more successful. Married Miss Hannah R. Mercer Nov. 28, 1855, at Marietta she was of the Order of Friends, and was from Columbiana Co., Ohio. They have three children —Theresa, Delos, Jr., and Ralph; they have lost three children in infancy."
Given all that, the mystery remains: Is Senator Delos Arnold a founding father of La Cañada? How did he acquire 45 2/5 acres of Lot 14 of Rancho La Cañada? How did he come to owe $11,610.58 to Catharine Banbury? Did he lose his land? Did he keep it? And where are his descendants?
To be continued....

Scoped distribution
From ForensicsWiki
Tools libraries and frameworks build by or for goverment agencies often, although essentialy being open source, can not be freely shared and redistributed. In the most strict cases a NDA is used, but in some cases instead of this a scoped distributions is defined. With scoped distribution it is allowed to (re)distribute the product, but only under the conditions mentioned by the scope. An often used scope for forensic tools is the LEA only scope.

We went to Mass today and could not understand a word! It was all in French.
We are celebrating Mass with a church FULL of French-speaking Africans with a white French bishop with an Italian parish priest in a church built by Italians in the heart of Istanbul which is 99.9% Muslim. We are all loyal to the Argentinean Pope on the Chair of Jewish Peter in Rome.
Yet, we had the same Mass and the same readings as you! It was the Feast of the Baptism of Our Lord. We followed along with the iMissal on our iPhones. We were home. This was OUR church! The Lord is present in the Eucharist. This is our universal Catholic Church.
We love being Catholic!

Would a bounty for Turnovers be legal?
If you fumble, you put $20k in the pot. If you recover a fumble, get an INT, force a fumble, etc, you get a share of the weekly pot.
If this won't work, how bout we put incentives in contracts to get turnovers and hold on to the ball?
There has to be a way to incentivize the outcome we want.
