Once upon a time this spot used to be a secret but…that's not so much the case anymore. The line will prove it too! But don't be afraid, people are there for a reason and it's worth the wait. Just grab a coffee, iced tea or malt and make the most of it:)
I was there recently for brunch and was overwhelmed by all the tasty options on the menu. What to order – what to order! I finally decided on the chilaquiles. That seems to be my go-to whenever I see it on a menu. I'm so glad I decided to add the "smoked pork" for $3.50…worth every cent!!! What a scrumptious breakfast/brunch/lunch! I couldn't even finish it but I didn't leave overly stuffed and I would definitely go back for this again. My friend got the "shrimp & grits" which were just as amazing. There was so much more to both these dishes than expected. Packed with flavor and complexity…the first bite left us moaning, "Mmmmm…Mmmmm!":)
The "chicken & waffle" and "breakfast toast" had me salivating as well. Next time:)

Martin's banjo mixes well with Brickell's voice
"Love Has Come For You" Steve Martin and Edie Brickell, (Rounder Records)
It's clear from the opening line on the first song, "When You Get To Asheville," that "Love Has Come For You" isn't your grandfather's banjo record.
"When you get to Asheville," singer Edie Brickell intones after a beguiling banjo introduction by Steve Martin, "please send me an email."
Mixing the traditional with the modern, Brickell and Martin find a comfortable groove on what might seem like an unlikely collaboration that turns out to be a perfect fit. Brickell's ability to create vivid characters and spin a tale in the confines of a three-minute song melds well with Martin's five-string banjo stylings.
Brickell lets her native Texas twang come out on songs such as "Sarah Jane and the Iron Mountain Baby," while Martin, following up his 2009 Grammy-winning debut bluegrass album, finds melodies and tunes that hearken to an earlier time but still sound contemporary.
The title track has a particularly haunting feel that grabs a hold after multiple listenings, proving once again that Martin is more than just a comedic actor and Brickell is an underrated singer-songwriter.

Schoenberg, Arnold
serialtechnique of composition (see serial music). Except for periods in Berlin (1901–3; 1911–18), he lived in Vienna until 1925. In 1918 he founded his famous private seminar in composition and the Society for Private Musical Performances, at which neither critics nor applause were allowed. Though he himself had little formal instruction in music, teaching was a major activity throughout his life. Among his many students the most noted were Alban Berg and Anton von Webern. He taught at the Prussian Academy of Fine Arts in Berlin from 1925 to 1933, when he fled the Nazis, emigrated to the United States, and taught for a year at the Malkin Conservatory, Boston. He then went to Hollywood and was professor of music at the Univ. of Southern California (1935–36) and the Univ. of California at Los Angeles (1936–44).
In his early works—Verklärte Nacht (1899), a string sextet; Gurrelieder (1900–1), a cantata for chorus and orchestra; and Pelleas und Melisande (1902–3), a symphonic poem—Schoenberg expanded the chromatic style established by Wagner and Mahler. His later works are thinner in texture and highly contrapuntal. In 1908 in a set of piano pieces and the song cycle Das Buch der hängenden Gärten, to poems of Stefan George, he completely abandoned tonality (see atonality). His use of Sprechstimme, halfway between song and speech, caused a sensation at the first performance in 1912 of the song cycle Pierrot Lunaire. The twelve-tone technique he devised, used to some extent in five piano pieces and a Serenade in 1923, was first employed throughout a work in the Suite for Piano (1924). Though he did not invent serial technique, he established it as an important organizational device in music. His other works include two chamber symphonies (1906; 1906–40) and Variations for Orchestra (1928); string quartets, a woodwind quintet (1924), and Suite for 7 Instruments (1926); a violin concerto (1936) and a piano concerto (1942); the monodrama Erwartung (1909) and an unfinished opera, Moses und Aron (1932–51; produced 1957), considered his masterpiece; Ode to Napoleon (1942), to Byron's poem, for male speaker, piano and strings; A Survivor from Warsaw (1947), for narrator, chorus and orchestra; and Fantasia (1949), for violin and piano.

Perle (rev. ed. 1968), B. Boretz (1968), C. Rosen (1981), and A. Shawn (2002); S. Feisst, Schoenberg's New World: The American Years (2011).

After Katrina devastated his hometown, Douglas Brinkley was not content resting safely in Houston. Leaving his wife and two toddlers on dry Texas land, the Tulane University history professor returned to New Orleans to become part of the rapidly forming civilian rescue effort. He and his compatriots launched into the floodwaters to help whomever they could, wherever they could. His book, The Great Deluge: Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans, and the Mississippi Gulf Coast, chronicles the disaster and its aftermath.
As a citizen of New Orleans, what was the hardest sight to see?
The floodwaters around us as we were on rescue missions were just filled with bloated corpses. You had to take your paddle and just push them away. But we didn't know what to do with the dead because we had to prioritize the living. It left me with a grim and painful visual that I carry in my head and can't get rid of.
More From Popular Mechanics
Was there a sense of camaraderie among the stranded residents and the rescue workers?
Yes. The people who remained in the bowl of New Orleans had to become first responders after the storm. There was no Federal Calvary coming, so waiters, mechanics, teachers, laborers, dishwashers - average Joes - became action heroes. They went into poisoned floodwaters, not worried about their own lives, and rescued people with Alzheimer's, dementia, asthma, blindness and on and on. In addition to the Coast Guard and the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries, these people were rescued by and large by a group I call the NOLA (New Orleans, Louisiana) Homeboys.
Why did you come back to New Orleans?
I couldn't stand seeing the images on CNN of my neighbors in despair and dying. When it was clear that there were no FEMA buses emptying the Superdome, and that there was no Red Cross in New Orleans, it was necessary that regular people quickly got in to try and help. When you live in New Orleans, you have the advantage of knowing the geography and the areas that would flood the worst. Sure enough, I'd head to those areas and there'd already be an impromptu boat launch to go save people.
What do you want to see happen to help New Orleans better survive intense hurricanes?
I want to see levees built for Category 5 storms. I want to see a public works project that's backed with energy and money, like the Dutch did when saving their land from the seas. We need to have a sense of security. New Orleans is a gem of America-it's a great architectural and cultural Mecca and we need to protect it. Only Category 5 levees will do. Patchwork Category 3s are just another leeway to disaster.
Do you see a long-term disaster preparedness education helping?
I think so. Post-Katrina, I think you'll find people evacuating much quicker when they see storms brewing around the Gulf Coast. I think they'll recognize a Category 3 storm as being a killer, not just something you can button down the hatch and wait out.

Lady Gaga at SXSW: sausages, vomit and inspiration
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Lady Gaga kicked off 24 hours in the spotlight at South By Southwest in typically memorable fashion.
The 27-year-old pop provocateur began her appearance at Stubb's BBQ on Thursday night during the annual music festival and conference by appearing to be roasted on a spit like a gutted pig as her dancers basted her with barbecue brushes — and then things got really weird.
Part S&M sex club homage, part affirmational session, the show included moments meant to provoke and others meant to inspire.
Gaga began the evening by taping a segment on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" in which she wore a puffy white dress complete with a huge hat that mostly obscured her face. By the time she hit Stubb's a little after 10, she'd stripped down to a black bikini on an unusually chilly night at the outdoor venue. She was to finish her moment at SXSW when she was set to give the conference's keynote speech Friday.
Gaga's set began with an attractive woman eating barbecued sausages in a provocative manner. Soon after completing the smoked meats portion of her hour-long show, Gaga invited friend Millie Brown onstage to assist on "Swine." Brown, a "vomit painter," proceeded to drink a full bottle of neon green liquid before forcing herself to throw up on the singer as she played drums.
The pair then climbed aboard a mechanical bull-like pig equipped with a ball gag and a keyboard. Gaga straddled Brown atop the pig and played the keys as they bucked in circles. Brown then painted Gaga with a black liquid that stained the singer's skin throughout the performance.
The entire show wasn't meant to titillate, however. There were moments aimed at inspiration.
"I love my fans because they always let me be myself and they don't care what anybody says," Gaga told the crowd.
A little while later she set up her somber song "Dope" with a self-reflective moment.
"It's so much easier to be yourself than it is to be somebody else," she told the crowd as she played melancholy notes on the piano. "Because then you have to pretend to be someone else and like things that you don't like and do stuff that you don't want to do."

It's New Year's Day again, and in much of the world, this means another year's worth of works enter the public domain. That's a cause for celebration, as Europe and many other countries that have "life+70 years" copyright terms welcome works by James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Jelly Roll Morton, and Elizabeth von Arnim into the public domain. The Communia Project's Public Domain Day website focuses on works by these and many other authors that are entering (in many cases, re-entering) the public domain in "life+70 years" countries. Meanwhie, folks in Canada, New Zealand, and other countries that have held the line at the "life+50 years" terms of the Berne Convention can now freely enjoy the works of people like James Thurber, Ernest Hemingway, and H.D.
There's not so much excitement about Public Domain Day in the US, where no published works are scheduled to enter the public domain for another 7 years, due to a 20-year copyright extension enacted in 1998. But Americans don't have to simply sigh and contemplate what might have been if our copyright terms hadn't been extended. The new year still provides a number of important opportunities for Americans to improve access to the public domain.
1. Find and free newly public domain unpublished works
Some works are going into the public domain in the US today: works never published prior to 2003 (or copyrighted under US law prior to 1978) by authors who died in 1941– the same authors whose published works go into the public domain in Europe today.
But who would care about such obscure works? one might ask. Well, if you're at all interested in understanding the dense, allusion-laden fiction of Joyce, or the psychology of Woolf, or the jurisprudential thinking of Louis Brandeis, or the inner lives of any of the rest of the "class of 1941", having the right to freely access, publish, and build on their unpublished works can be crucial.
Up until now, for instance, scholars studying James Joyce have often been frustrated by sharp restrictions and legal threats made by the administrator of Joyce's literary estate. In 2008, Rebecca Ganz characterized the administrator thus: "[His] primary purpose is to quell any scholarship that he finds distasteful or an invasion of his family's privacy. He has a history of harassing authors and artists until they buckle under the strain of trying to obtain legal rights to quote from the late author's writings." Scholars wishing to invoke Joyce's unpublished works in their work have either had to undertake multi-year legal battles, or cut back on the lines of inquiry they might otherwise pursue.
American libraries and archives have many illuminating papers by authors who died in 1941– even non-US authors like Joyce and Woolf. US digitizers, librarians, and archivists can open up and publicize these works. In some cases, we're uniquely positioned to do so, since their unpublished works may still be under copyright in some other countries.
2. Increase worldwide availability of public domain works
Many of the millions of digitized books on the Internet are hosted in the US, in large-scale repositories like Google Books, HathiTrust, and the Internet Archive. Many of these services give limited access to non-US readers or materials. Google and HathiTrust, for instance, limit non-US access by default to books published as long as 140 years ago, to avoid falling afoul of "life+70 years" copyright terms abroad. JSTOR likewise limits access to non-US journal volumes published in 1870 or later.
With another year's worth of copyrights expiring in "life+70 years" countries, it should be safe for these US-based services to also open up worldwide access to another year's worth of works, further freeing up the public domain. HathiTrust is also willing to manually review copyrights on specific books to open up access. If you come across any books in HathiTrust solely by authors who died in 1941 (or before) that are currently labeled only as "public domain in the United States", you can request that they review it for opening up access worldwide. Just use the "Feedback" button at the bottom of the book's HathiTrust page, or the suggestion form on my Online Books Page; and make sure you ask specifically for non-US access.
3. Restore access to obscure copyrighted works from 1936 (and earlier)
After libraries and archives expressed concerns about the fate of obscure works under longer copyright terms, Congress included a special exemption in their 1998 copyright tem extension. The exemption, codified as section 108(h) of the copyright law, states that "during the last 20 years of any term of copyright of a published work, a library or archives, including a nonprofit educational institution that functions as such, may reproduce, distribute, display, or perform in facsimile or digital form a copy or phonorecord of such work, or portions thereof, for purposes of preservation, scholarship, or research", under certain conditions. In particular, if the institution finds, after a reasonable investigation, that such a work is not "subject to normal commercial exploitation" (such as by being in print) and cannot "be obtained at a reasonable price", and no rightsholder has filed a claim otherwise, the work qualifies for this special exemption. As of this year's Public Domain Day, qualifying publications from 1936 join what is now 14 years of works in this category.
So far, I have found very little digitized content online where this exemption is explicitly invoked. (There are advantages to explicitly doing so, both because it helps clarify the right to use the material, and helps prevent inadvertent unauthorized propagation of the works, such as the commercial reprints of digitized books that are now common on many large bookselling sites.) Yet many of the works in HathiTrust's (currently suspended) orphan works initiative, and in the Internet Archive's lending library, and more besides, could well qualify for this treatment– and unlike orphan works, where legislation has yet to be passed, the exemption for these materials is already explicitly authorized by statute.
Providing online access for these works is not without controversy. A 2002 article by lawyer Mary Minow details some of the potential possibilities and risks. While she concludes that libraries can put such works on the Web, the recent Author's Guild complaint in its lawsuit against HathiTrust includes some push-back against this idea. But as the public domain in the US recedes further into history, and digital library projects increasingly look for ways to make our cultural heritage available online, American libraries would do well to proactively establish and exercise these rights for older works now languishing in obscurity.
4. Strengthen and sustain coalitions for reasonable copyright limits
The curtailment of the public domain is just one aspect of the overreach of copyright law in the US and elsewhere. Right now, Congress is considering two bills, the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the PROTECT IP Act (PIPA), whose enforcement provisions threaten to disrupt the core structures of the Internet and enable far-reaching censorship, in the name of stopping piracy. Supporters of these bills hoped to have them passed by Christmas, but opposition from both "left" and "right" sides of the political spectrum has slowed the process down, caused some companies to withdraw support, and led to the proposal of less harmful alternatives for fighting piracy.
It's still quite possible that SOPA and PIPA will pass, though. Public Domain Day provides an opportunity for Americans to reflect on some of the good reasons for limiting the power and scope of copyright enforcement, and to redouble efforts to keep those limits reasonable. Moreover, a coalition that can stop SOPA and PIPA can also work to prevent further extensions of copyright terms. This can ensure that Americans will have more to celebrate in Public Domain Days to come– especially starting in 2019, when the remaining 1923 copyrights should finally expire in the US.
5. Give copyrights of your own to the public domain
Of course, those wishing to maximize public access and use of their works don't have to wait for their copyrights to expire on their own. They can dedicate them to the public domain any time they want. Public Domain Day is a particularly auspicious time to make such gifts, no matter what country you're in. And with tools like the CC0 declaration, it's easier than ever to do so.
A few years ago, I started an annual personal tradition of reviewing copyrights to works I'd created more than 14 years ago (the original initial term of copyright enacted by the founders of the US, and also approximately the ideal copyright term given in a recent economic analysis) and dedicating works to the public domain that I didn't feel needed further copyright. Accordingly, today I dedicate all the work of my creation that I published in 1997, and for which I still control rights, to the public domain. For me, this consists primarily of websites like The Online Books Page as of that year, and other online writings. But others have dedicated more high-profile material to the public domain after the same term. And I'd be very happy to hear from others who are making similar dedications today (whether or not it's after 14 years).
So, happy Public Domain Day to everyone in the US and elsewhere! We all have things to celebrate, and things we can do, in the name of the public domain.

The vacuum of space isn't actually "empty"; it teems with particles that pop in and out of existence, giving the vacuum an energy of its own. But here's an embarrassing fact about that energy: it predicts that the cosmological constant (which provides a measure of the rate of the expansion of the Universe) should be 10120 times larger than we think it actually is.
Most scientists prefer things to be a bit more accurate than this. Still, the main question on cosmologists' minds is not why the predicted and real values appear to be so different, but how it is that the vacuum energy does so little. An answer of sorts has recently appeared in Physical Review Letters. But before we get to the paper, let's delve into the nature of the problem it's trying to solve.
An expanding Universe
When Einstein was first formulating a new theory of gravity, his solutions predicted that the Universe was expanding. At the time, the Universe was widely regarded to be static, so Einstein added a constant that counteracted the expansion and kept the Universe unchanging. Everyone rejoiced—electromagnetism, space, time, and gravity could all live together in harmony.
Later, Edwin Hubble took advantage of a new generation of telescopes to measure the speed at which distant galaxies were moving. He found that the further away a galaxy was, the faster away from us it was moving. The conclusion was inescapable: the Universe was expanding. Everyone chuckled over Einstein's big goof and got on with the business of crashing the economy and going to live in Hooverville.
Fast forward to the turn of the century, where yet another generation of telescopes—combined with an excellent understanding of how a particular type of supernova worked—allowed scientists to measure whether the rate at which the Universe expands is constant or not. Turns out it's not; every day, the Universe expands a bit faster than it did the day before. Inflation, it seems, is a physical as well as an economic universal, and Einstein's cosmological constant was back (albeit in altered form).
Funnily enough, it wouldn't have mattered whether the new cosmological constant was positive, negative, or zero—problems were going to arise. This is because Einstein's work had also established that mass and energy are two sides of the same coin. Since mass causes space and time to warp, so too should energy. At the time, no one gave the issue a second thought because we thought that most of space was empty vacuum.
Unfortunately, it turns out that the vacuum is anything but empty. And since it has energy, it should curve space and time. In other words, the vacuum of space should contain enough energy to curl the Universe up into a tight little ball or blow it apart so fast that no stars could ever form (it depends on whether the energy is positive or negative).
Given our current data, there's no argument over the approximate value of the cosmological constant: it is small and positive. So why doesn't the vacuum energy bend space and time? When physicists bolt the quantum vacuum energy on to general relativity, they get absurd results unless some kind of correction factor (to the tune of 10120) is carefully added to counteract the vacuum. This fine-tuning bothers people because there is simply no way to obtain these numbers naturally.
A new idea
Enter the new work by Nemanja Kaloper (UC-Davis) and Antonio Padilla (University of Nottingham), who have proposed a modification to general relativity that naturally generates a small cosmological constant. According to the researchers, the cosmological constant should be treated as the average of the vacuum contribution over all space and time. When this happens, the local vacuum energy contributions appear twice in the equations with opposite signs. No matter what energy the vacuum has right now, it can't bend space and time—think of it as pushing with one hand and pulling with the other.
The residual cosmological constant is a kind of historical average. That is, all the fluctuations in the vacuum from the beginning of time up to this moment contribute to the cosmological constant we observe now. In the early Universe, this created a large cosmological constant that drove inflation. Later, as the Universe cooled, the cosmological constant became small. Even later, it may change signs, causing the Universe to begin contraction.
One other implication is that the Universe has to be finite in both space and time.
Now, it might be possible to separate this idea out from all the others by trying to piece together the history of the expansion of the Universe in more detail. Alternatively, we can wait about 100 billion years to see if the expansion of the Universe begins to slow. Otherwise, it's going to be very difficult to generate observational evidence to support the idea.

I cannot survive in a 140-character world, so here are more tweets that grew up to be too big for Twitter…
It's been an interesting and odd past couple of weeks in the sandbox. Let's recap:
- Kevin Pillar of the Toronto Blue Jays was shut down for two Major League Baseball games and instructed to do some serious soul searching after directing a homophobic nasty toward Atlanta Braves pitcher Jason Motte.
- The National Hockey League lightened Ryan Getzlaf's pay envelope to the tune of $10,000 after the Anaheim Ducks captain went all potty-mouth and homophobic in a playoff match.
- Four heterosexual men who, to the best of my knowledge, have not spent a single day of their lives as gay men, gathered around a table in a TSN studio and discussed gay issues as if they harbored special insight into what words do and don't offend gay people.
Tiger Woods, much like his golf game, was discovered asleep at the wheel and hauled off to a Florida hoosegow on a DUI charge. Tiger's mug shot was rather ghastly but, hey, who looks good in the small hours of the morning when they're hopped up on every pill known to man?
- Terry Frei, award-winning sports columnist with the Denver Post, was told to leave the building and not return after a tweet in which he expressed his discomfort with a Japanese man, Takuma Sato, winning the Indianapolis 500 on Memorial Day in the United States. Frei later said we're free to call him an idiot for his idiotic and racist remark, but he asks that we don't call him a racist for his idiotic and racist remark.
- Tennis legend Margaret Court has gone completely off her nut. She described the women's tour as a lesbian-infested enterprise in which senior players groom vulnerable youngsters to adopt a lesbian lifestyle; she bemoaned the birth of Casey Dellacqua's second child because she'll be raised by two mamas and no papas; she insisted that transgender kids are the work of the devil; she compared a phantom LGBT lobby to Adolph Hitler and communism; she accused that same phantom gay lobby as the force behind a move to have her name scrubbed from one of the venues used for the Australian Open. (What is it with old tennis farts? It wasn't so long ago when Romanian pig Ilie Nastase went off his nut with racist remarks about Serena Williams' unborn baby—"Let's see what color it has. Chocolate with milk?" and he made sexist comments about Britain's top female player Johanna Konta, calling her a "bitch" and asking for her hotel room number.)
- French tennis player Maxime Hamou, perhaps in an attempt to disprove Court's theory that everyone in tennis is gay, was kicked out of Roland Garros for forcibly and repeatedly kissing Eurosport reporter Maly Thomas during a live TV interview.
I think that pretty much sums up the seedy side of sports in recent days, and I think we can agree that there's been a whole lot of ugly going on.
The worst optic for me was the TSN panel on The Reporters with Dave Hodge. I mean, when I think of poor casting, Johnny Depp as Tonto comes to mind. Kevin Costner as Robin Hood. John Wayne as Genghis Khan. Ashton Kutcher as anybody. All bad, bad, bad, bad. But four heterosexual sports guys talking about gay things? The worst.
Heterosexual male sports scribes should be discussing gay issues only if they have spent considerable time in the LGBT community, if they offer a named gay source as a point of reference, if they have felt the sting of a homophobic barb, or if they have had to fight society for the right to marry the partner of their choice.
I doubt Hodge, Michael Farber, Steve Simmons or Dave Feschuk qualify on any count.
Farber suggested the way the Blue Jays and MLB handled the Pillar situation was "admirable." Well, I'm sure it was to him. But he isn't gay. Perhaps a gay sports writer might think the punishment for calling an opponent a "faggot" was too namby-pamby.
Trouble is, there are no gay sports scribes in Canada. At least not in the mainstream. If you're talking about a jock journo at big city daily rags in the True North, there's a 99.9 per cent probability that he's a he, he's white and he's a confirmed heterosexual. The other 0.1 per cent is female. And probably straight.
Mark Spector of Sportsnet represents the 99.9 per cent, and he recently wondered why the NHL cannot hear a homophobic slur "the way a gay man would hear the word." Well duh. It's because the people who occupy the ivory tower in the NHL are not gay. Nor is Spector, so he doesn't hear it "the way a gay man would hear the word" either.
Spector's piece is thoughtful (he actually solicited gay insight from Brock McGillis, a former Ontario Hockey League goaltender who came out post-career) and he asks this question: "Why have the other sports experienced players come out, but not the National Hockey League? Or Canadian Major Junior Hockey?" Spector might pose the same query about his own business. I started in the rag trade in 1969. I worked with gay entertainment writers, gays on news side, gay librarians, gay department heads, but never once a gay male jock journo. You'd think that in the ensuing 48 years there'd have been at least one gay guy scribbling about sports at one of the big-city, mainstream dailies. But no. There have been more sightings of Sasquatch. Why no openly gay sports scribes? Probably the same reason there are no openly gay hockey players—they fear ridicule and don't want to be thought of as a weaker-than or a lesser-than.
Hey, look who's back! It's the two Grumpets, Steve Lyons and Paul Wiecek. They've reappeared on the Winnipeg Free Press sports pages, and they did the unthinkable with their return volley: They ate their own. Actually, it was Wiecek who called out Cathal Kelly in a discussion about Tiger Woods' arrest on a DUI charge. "The normally staid Globe and Mail had a hyperventilating column by Cathal Kelly up on their site already by Monday afternoon, which made the paper and Kelly—who is usually excellent—looking very stupid." Yowzers. I can't recall the last time I read one sports scribe dissing one of the brethren like that, but I think JFK was still alive.
Got a kick out of good guy Doug Smith's blog in the Toronto Star. "How can you not hope for the best for a team that's lost so many vital components already and still manages to soldier on?" Smith asks of the beleaguered Blue Jays. Well, Doug, I'll give you two names to explain why I cannot root, root, root for the Tranna Nine: Jose and Bautista. He is the most tedious, tiresome man in professional sports.
While watching a McDonald's commercial during the terrific five-setter between our top tennis guy Milos Raonic and Pablo Carreno Busta at Roland Garros on Sunday morning, I couldn't help but wonder: Who thought it would be a good idea to put coleslaw on a hamburger? I'm not lovin' it.
I do love clay-court tennis and its long rallies, though, which might explain why the French Open is my preferred Grand Slam event and my two main men of all time are Bjorn Borg and Rafa Nadal. The Raonic-Carreno Busta match was terrific theatre, with the Spaniard enduring 4-6, 7-6, 6-7, 6-4, 8-6.
Patti Dawn Swansson has been scribbling about Winnipeg sports for 47 years, which means she's old and probably should think about getting a life.

"We're not computers, Sebastian. We're physical." -- Roy Batty
Thirty years ago right around this time, Ridley Scott was wrapping up production on his film Blade Runner. By the summer of 1982, it had opened in over 1,200 theaters across the country. Routinely panned and even attacked by test audiences, the film fared little better in theaters. In fact, it was a certified box office flop. Virtually no one, it seems, liked Blade Runner. Fortunately, in the three decades since it first debuted on the big screen, viewers discovering the film on cable TV and DVD have come to appreciate it as not only a cult film par excellence but an emotionally challenging, thematically complex work whose ideas and subtexts are just as startling as its now famous production designs.
Set in Los Angeles in the year 2019, Blade Runner depicts a world where the sun no longer shines. Instead, a constant rainy drizzle adds to the dark character of this futuristic landscape. Although the opening shot's aerial perspective suggests a modern Los Angeles, the audience soon discovers a very different city in which the endless archipelago of suburbs have been replaced by a dark and ominous landscape lit only by occasional flare-ups of burning gas at oil refineries. An energy shortage has crippled life in the future. The earth is decayed, and millions of people have been forced to colonize other planets. Those who remain behind live in huge cities consisting of a conglomeration of new buildings four hundred stories high and the dilapidated remains of earlier times.
The streets teem with Hare Krishnas and men in fezzes, all lit by a lurid blaze of flashing neon. The crunch and crush of modern population seems overwhelming and totally dehumanizing. Genetic engineering has become one of the earth's major industries, with humans now assuming the role of "maker" and "creator." Since most of the world's animals have become extinct, genetic engineers now produce artificial animals. And artificial humans called "replicants" have been created to do the difficult, hazardous and often tedious work necessary in the colonies on other planets.
If Michelangelo were alive in Ridley Scott's future world, rather than portraying God on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, he would likely paint the human creators of the Tyrell Corporation, the world's leading manufacturer of replicants which has just introduced the "Nexus-6," a replicant with far greater strength and intelligence than human beings. These latest-model replicants represent an obvious potential danger to human society, and their introduction on Earth -- an offense calling for the death penalty -- has been strictly outlawed. When the replicants somehow make their way back to Earth, they are systematically "retired" (but not "killed" since they are inhuman) by special detectives or "Blade Runners" trained to track down and liquidate the infiltrators.
Police receive an emergency report that four "combat model" Nexus-6 replicants--two male and two female--have killed the crew of a space shuttle and returned to Earth. The Blade Runner assigned to track them down and "terminate" them is Deckard (Harrison Ford, in his best performance).
The film shifts dramatically when the replicants, who are on a mission to extend their short life span, display a stronger sense of community than the human beings on Earth. With his three partners now destroyed by explosive bullets, the silver-blonde replicant Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer) succeeds in finding his way to Tyrell himself, the master of the Tyrell Corporation and the genetic engineering genius who actually designed him. Batty wants to have his genetic code altered to extend his assigned four-year life span. He simply wants to live. But when he discovers he cannot, Batty kills Tyrell in a despairing rage, calling him (as Zeus to Cronos) "Father." At one point, Batty remarks: "It's a hard thing to meet your maker."
Blade Runner cannot be understood without comprehending the deeply felt moral, philosophical, ecological and sociological concerns that are interwoven throughout the story. Three key, yet profound, questions contribute to the core of Blade Runner: Who am I? Why am I here? What does it mean to be human? Thus, the eternal problems in the film are essentially moral ones -- that is, should replicants kill to gain more life? Should Deckard kill replicants simply because they want to exist?
Defining what it means to be human, however, provides most of Blade Runner's philosophical focus. This is increasingly the dilemma faced by contemporary society -- that is, the most vital question confronting us is how to maintain our humanity in the face of overwhelming technologies that tend to dehumanize us.
Philip K. Dick promulgated a "sheep" metaphor in his novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (1968), upon which the film is based. "Sheep stemmed from my basic interest in the problem of differentiating the authentic human being from the reflexive machine, which I call an android. In my mind android is a metaphor for people who are psychologically human but behaving in a nonhuman way." During research for an earlier work, Dick had discovered diaries by Nazi SS men stationed in Poland. One sentence in particular had a profound effect on him. That sentence read, "We are kept awake at night by the cries of starving children." As Dick explained, "There is obviously something wrong with the man who wrote that. I later realized that, with the Nazis, what we were essentially dealing with was a defective group mind, a mind so emotionally defective that the word 'human' could not be applied to them." More importantly for us, Dick observed, "I felt that this was not necessarily a sole German trait. This deficiency had been exported into the world after World War II and could be picked up by people anywhere, at any time."
The dilemma is even more acute than when Dick was penning Sheep, for we have moved deeper into the methodological terrain of a new world -- one more than ever dominated by what we believe to be the machine. As a consequence, we have reconstructed the self in the face of the dissolution of the ontological structures that have heretofore provided a validation of being. In the wake of this dissolution, as Scott Bukatman writes in Terminal Identity, we "humans" have arrived at "a new subjectivity constructed at the computer station or television screen."
In the case of the replicants in Blade Runner, the so-called fusion of machine preciseness is meshed with the matrix of human flesh -- but supposedly without the human characteristics of emotions, empathy and so forth. Deckard, who had been indoctrinated into believing that replicants were mere machines, was facing an emotional dilemma because of a stirring of regret (or empathy) when "retiring" the replicant/machines. As we find out in the later 1992 director's cut of Blade Runner, this could be that Deckard, possibly a replicant himself, intuitively identified with them. Or was it simply his humanity emerging from the closet of decayed urbanity that engulfed him?
The central problems in Blade Runner are essentially moral ones. As producer Michael Deeley points out, "Should the replicants kill to gain moral life? Should Harrison Ford be killing them simply because they want to exist? These questions begin to tangle up Deckard's thinking... especially when he becomes involved with a female replicant himself."
Blade Runner postulates the theorem that what has feelings is human. Thus, Blade Runner is as much about Deckard's recovery of empathetic response as it is about the replicants' development of such a response. The irritated Nazis kept awake by the children's cries with their inability to empathize were less than human. "What raises the android Roy Batty to human status in Blade Runner," writes Norman Spinard in Science Fiction in the Real World, "is that, on the brink of his own death, he is able to empathize with Deckard. What makes true beings is that ultimately, on one level or another, whatever reality mazes they may be caught in, they realize that the true base reality is not absolute or perceptual, but moral and empathetic."
The ultimate relevance of Blade Runner lies in its challenge of what it must mean to be human. It raises the eternal gnawing doubt as to our own humanity or lack of it. These are the same issues raised by the great religions and philosophies of the past. And it speaks to how we respond to the pain of those around us. Do we reach for the one downed by the crushing perplexity of modernity or do we merely pass by, forgetting about that grizzled human lying on the sidewalk who is drowning in the gutter created by the disintegrating and dehumanizing post-modern existence?


text: In this episode, Matt and Erin start off with talking about the hot weather in Ames. A local rain shower will help lawns and crops. Erin shared some updates on soybean aphid in Iowa. A few more reports are showing up from the lab as they visit various research farms. The percent infested plants is higher than in the past few years, so scouting in highly encouraged this summer. Both have noted aphids around the yard and on campus this month, too. Matt wants to try out a new segment called F.I.T. (fun insect trivia). He asked me about how the malaise trap was named and Erin was kinda right. Erin also had a F.I.T. about determining the sex of Japanese beetle. It wasn't nearly as interesting as Matt's story and maybe not even that important to know. Erin also noted Japanese beetles are emerging in southern Iowa and corn rootworm egg hatch is peaking around Iowa this week. If you live in north-central Iowa, plan to attend a field day at the ISU Northern Farm near Kanawha.

When will Israel open its borders to Zambia and during coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in 2021?
2019 divided the history of most countries into «before» and «after». We are talking about a pandemic that has swept the whole world. The SARS-CoV-2 virus was first identified among residents of Hubei province (China). In just a few months, a disease called Covid-19 has spread to the inhabitants of the entire planet. Zambia and Israel were not an exception.
Why is covid so dangerous? Regardless of the level of development of a particular state, medical care and other factors, millions of people have become victims of the coronavirus. According to the latest data, this figure is 183 040 225 people, among the total — 3 963 250 deaths. The main symptoms of the disease are: shortness of breath, high fever, dry cough, loss of taste and smell. The world's leading countries have developed or are working on the production of their own vaccines that protect against COVID-19. Naturally, vaccination is not a 100% guarantee of protection against coronavirus, however, when infected, the disease is transferred much easier.
According to current data (statistics for Saturday, 3 July 2021), the number of cases in Israel is 842 648 people, total deaths are 6429, and 2425 are sick right now. Such statistics forced the government of the state of Israel to impose certain restrictions on flights and border crossing.
Is it allowed to enter Israel from Zambia?
Current statistics on the restrictions on entry to Israel:
- Open to citizens: Yes
- Open to s: Partially
- Open to foreigners and tourists: Partially

- Foreigners can enter the territory of Israel only if absolutely necessary: study in Israel, employment, residence permit. For more information about the conditions of entry, read the official sources of the government: https://www.garda.com/crisis24/news-alerts/485 676/israel-authorities-lift-most-domestic-covid-19-restrictions-june-1-update-103
- Availability of the test: Negative PCR test is required for all countries.
All countries are divided into 3 main categories by the Ministry of Health:
- «Green» (low rate of spread of coronavirus)
- «Orange» (average rate of spread of coronavirus)
- «Red» (high rate of spread of coronavirus)
In this regard, the government acts in accordance with the recommendations of the World Health Association. The distribution of states into separate categories is updated regularly. At the moment, Zambia ranks among the states of the «Orange» category.
The main reasons for the introduction of new restrictions are coronavirus mutations, an increase in the number of cases, and insufficient vaccination rates.

28 Mar MISSION TO MARS: My Vision for Space Exploration
WASHINGTON (March 25, 2013)—In a new book from National Geographic, celebrated astronaut and bestselling author Buzz Aldrin boldly advocates continuing exploration of our solar system. In MISSION TO MARS: My Vision for Space Exploration (National Geographic Books; ISBN 978-1-4262-1017-4; on sale May 7; hardcover), by Buzz Aldrin and Leonard David, Aldrin lays out his goals for the space program and how he believes we can get humans to Mars by the 2030s, a vision shared by President Obama and one that is fortified by private industry and international cooperation.
In the book, which includes a foreword by Aldrin's son Andrew, Aldrin makes the case and argues passionately for pushing our boundaries of knowledge and exploration of our solar system and presents his "unified space vision." Aldrin discusses the history of space flight, including a reflective, not nostalgic, look at the people, technologies and steps that were taken to accomplish America's Apollo moon landings, and plots a course of future exploration. He says "Do not put NASA astronauts on the moon. They have other places to go." And he emphasizes that the path forward is not a competition; we cannot restart an engine to rerun a race we previously won. This is a controversial notion that causes significant division among astronauts.
- •The blossoming of space tourism, and why public space travel by private citizens is critical as it makes space more familiar.
- •Why a second race to the moon is a dead end and a waste of precious resources.
- Why there is high value on the political and collaborative front by letting partners such as China and India tie into the International Space Station.
- •Apollo was a get-there-in-a-hurry, straightforward, space-race strategy. Today, Aldrin calls for a unified international effort to explore and utilize the moon, a partnership that involves commercial enterprise and other nationwide building upon the Apollo mission.
- •What Aldrin views as the biggest mistake he ever made relative to the future of the space program.
Aldrin is honest in his critiques of space policy, discussing the economic, political, technological and other issues of viability of various options. It is a personal book in which he discusses his family, especially his father (whose impact on Aldrin is particularly striking); his own life, including his time in the Korean War; his initial rejection by NASA (he was one of the only astronauts who did not start as a test pilot, but as an MIT engineer); his eventual journey to the moon; and his hopes and frustrations. He even calls out large aerospace contractors for a lack of transparency with NASA and admits that he made a big mistake in the 1970s by not being more vocal about his displeasure with the initial design that preceded the Space Shuttle.
MISSION TO MARS uncovers an intimate side of Aldrin, while spotlighting some of the most important issues facing our nation's space program today.
About the Authors
Buzz Aldrin, best known for his Apollo 11 moonwalk, holds a doctoral degree in astronautics and, at the age of 83, continues to wield influence as an international advocate of space science and planetary exploration. He has written three nonfiction books, two science fact/fiction novels and two children's books.
Leonard David is a space journalist, who has reported on space activities for some 45 years. He is the 2010 winner of the prestigious National Space Club Press Award. Currently, David is SPACE.com's Space Insider Columnist as well as a correspondent for Space News newspaper and a contributing writer for the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Aerospace America magazine.
