This recipe was shared with me by a friend who posted about it on Facebook. It sounded so delicious, that I had to try it that very day. Thanks, Julie! And can I just tell you.... these are honestly some of the best cookies I have ever tried in my life. The fresh cranberries lend a crisp, cool tang, the white chocolate chips add a hearty texture, and the oatmeal base is completely satisfying! You'll be so glad you made these!
Okay, it's your turn! Can't wait to read your homemaking posts! Thank you so much for your links and visit and I hope you have a wonderful Homemaker Monday! :)

Couples, Families and Relationships. The model I use to work with couples is an intersubjective model. This means that two people can think two different things and both be "right." Healing involves helping understand why and how the other sees things the way they do.

Neonatal Intensive Care
Neonatal Intensive Care
Serious care for the littlest lives
Expectant parents hope their babies will be born healthy. Yet sometimes newborns need to be hospitalized. When this happens, the baby may be cared for in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
Our team provides complete care to all newborns and infants with serious illness, including those in the NICU.
Our integrated neonatal (newborn) services allow our team of experts to create special treatment plans for every baby in our care. Newborns who are ill need special care, because they are developing rapidly. Babies in the NICU have different health problems, but there are several common reasons why newborns need intensive care.
The newborns and infants we care for are supported by a compassionate team of neonatologists (doctors for newborns), neonatal fellows, residents, advanced practice clinicians (neonatal nurse practitioners and physician assistants), neonatal nurses and other health professionals.
Through quality care, research, innovation and evidence-based medicine, we continue to improve the standard of care for newborns and infants.

I'm back!! Thank you all for your patience while I've been working on other projects. They're not totally done, but I have enough time now to write a photocap or two; so I thought I'd jump right into The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Admittedly, this third season hasn't been the most exciting (the bigger story is that Real Housewives of Miami is about ten times more entertaining than both BH and Atlanta combined — who would have thought?), but sometimes with a great cast, we don't always need fireworks every episode.
New to the cast this season has been Yolanda Foster, a flaxen beauty who's married to music producer extraordinaire David Foster. So far Yolanda has stayed out of the drama, choosing instead to stare down any given person with icy, scary eyes. In other words: I love her so far. The season, however, is young, and while I'm impressed with Yolanda's steely reserve, personal style, and sexy Dutch accent, I am aware that she may turn out to be an über biatch. For now though, she and Lisa have been holding down the fort in the classy department (if there can even be such a thing on Bravo, let alone the city of Beverly Hills).

CHICAGO vs. CHIVAS USA
Kickoff: Noon Sunday, StubHub Center
TV/radio: UniMas, KWKU 1220
Update: A new era starts (again) for Chivas, which is now under the stewardship of Major League Soccer as it seeks a buyer for the franchise. … Wilmer Cabrera takes over his first head coaching duties after being an assistant for the Colorado Rapids. … While many of the faces have stayed the same, Chivas has added a mix of veterans to the roster, the most important of which could be midfielder Mauro Rosales, who spent the last three seasons as a stalwart playmaker with Seattle. "He's been one of my favorite players to watch over the past few years in MLS," Chivas goalkeeper Dan Kennedy said. "He's really a special player and you can see it in training. He's a different class." … Chivas signed third-round draft pick Kristopher Tyrpak on Saturday. The forward played for Houston Baptist and earned his roster spot with a strong preseason camp. Earlier in the week, the club announced it had acquired forward Leandro Barrera from Argentinos Juniors. … Chicago went 14-13-7 and finished in fifth place with Montreal in the Eastern Conference standings last season but did not make the playoffs because Montreal held the tiebreaker advantage.

The University of South Dakota will venture into PAC 12 territory in 2014.
The Coyotes will make their first-ever visit to Eugene, Oregon to play the Ducks, August 30th, 2014. In a USD press release, head coach Joe Glenn said:
This is an opportunity for our team to see one of the top programs in the United States and play in one of the nation's best facilities.
It will be an experience that our players will be able to share with their children and grandchildren.
Financially, it helps out our department and helps make ends meet.
Oregon will be the seventh FBS opponent for the Coyotes in five seasons and first from the Pac-12 Conference. South Dakota is taking on Kansas this season on Sept. 7. The Coyotes' signature win against an FBS opponent was a 41-38 victory against Minnesota in 2010.
USD finished 1-10 last season. The Coyotes will play at Kansas this season.
Oregon was 12-1 last season, closing the year with a 35-17 win over Kansas State in the Fiesta Bowl to finish second in the final BCS standings to Alabama.

Early history of the planet
The planet is formed in the Zohan system approximately 2.300.000 years ago. Zohan is a medium size star emitting yellowish colored visible light, low level UV light and subatomic particles. When the planet formed, it was a remote and cold planet where no liquid water can be found and it had a very thin atmosphere.
12.800.000 years ago a large scale space battle is fought in the orbit of Zohan Star system and a large planet size space station exploded. Planets are affected from the explosion very badly. Some of them are destroyed and some of them altered their orbit. Neuwald is one of them. The explosion moved Neuwald to a closer orbit where the water could remain in liquid form.
First Colonists
About 5.000.000 years after the huge space battle colonists from an advanced civilization of humanoids landed to the planet and built facilities to form the planet. They build huge replicators to produce water and air. The colonists leave the facilities working and went away. No hard evidence is found until now why they leave the planet. One theory is that the colonist will return when the desired conditions are met on the planet.
In time life began on the planet and many types of life forms, mainly plants evolved. The animal life on see and land remained primitive.
Colonists from Nehellenium Galaxy
About 4000 years ago another group of colonist set foot to the planet. These colonist were coming from Galaxia Nehellenium who ran away from the great war between red and white space man races. Soon they started to fight each other for the planets resources and many killed during these fights. Afterwards they gathered a council and decided to abandon advanced technology because they believed if they keep the technology they would never find real peace. They filled their starship with everything high tech and sent it to the space. After that they build primitive villages to live. They only kept one holographic library device to keep their history. Probably after several hundred years, the device malfunctioned and stopped working. Fallowing this, the inhabitants could only cite historical information verbally to the descendants. Most of the verbally cited information was lost slowly and the people forgot their origins.
The inhabitants formed a society shaped in a cast system based on a religious system consisting priests, warriors and civilians. The priest of the cult wear large eagle head shaped caps made of gold.
The arrival of the Emperor
When the Emperor arrived this planet first time with a star ship with an imperial guard logo on it (An eagle Symbol), people of the planet haven't seen a star ship before and they believed that their god is back. When the Emperor comes out to meet them they started to worship the Emperor as their god calling them with the name of their god "Xaidocho" (or "Schwarzer Adler"). Ironically the planet was really moved to its current orbital position by the burst of explosion of a space station happened during a space battle million years ago and the Emperor took part in that battle during his interuniversal travel back in time.
Joining to the Empire
After the arrival of the Emperor to the planet, the majority of the Neuwalder and members of the priest cast declared him as their god but some of the members from the warriors cast were against joining to the Empire. The warrior cast started a short term war against the Emperor s forces and their own King Mondo who became a friend of the Emperor but they were defeated. King Mondo decided to join the Empire willingly after the Emperor married his daughter. The Emperor promised that the Kings grandchildren will rule the planet as long as Neuwald is under Empires control.
Cult of Schwarzer Adler
The Neuwalder believe that their planet is carried into the orbit of their sun by a giant black eagle so the planet is heated and can support life. They worship the eagle as a god and call him Xaidocho meaning black eagle (or Schwarzer Adler). Xaidocho can resize himself into the size of a humanoid minifig. He has children and siblings who are also gods. Mythical stories told that Xaidocho visits the planet from time to time to mate with women. After they gave birth, he took them with him. These children were known to be demigods.

Sand Storm in Austria
Austria may be an
unlikely place for a Beach Party, but in
Klagenfurt, the countrys southernmost
city, thats exactly what happens when the
FIVB Beach Volleyball World Tour hits the
The Tour first stopped
here in 1996, the year of the successful
launch of Beach Volleyball as an Olympic
sport. After the event gathered in
popularity each year, the FIVB then
entrusted the 2001 Beach Volleyball World
Championships to Klagenfurt. The rest is
sporting and entertainment history.
Set on the edge of the
fabulous Lake Worther a traditional holiday
resort near the Italian border, the venue
last year attracted 101,000 spectators over
the six days of competition. FIVB President
Dr. Rubén Acosta praised the event as one
of the best ever in the history of
Beach, and players also claimed it as
one of their favorite events.
This year the Austrian
event will be one of two Grand Slams, where
women and men battle it out for the
seasons top ranked competition, and one
that attracts more points and bigger prize
That Klagenfurt was
last year voted Best Event of the year
by a popular Austrian magazine ahead of
the classic Kitzbuehel Downhill and the
Austrian Formula One Grand Prix - was a
tribute to its organizers.
Klagenfurt is unique.
The players deliver a fantastic competition
and the crowd gets into party mode by
singing, chanting, dancing and even
performing the trademark slow wave to
the tune of the Blue Danube Waltz. The
side events offer a non-stop party
atmosphere, which will include this year the
"After Beach Parties" beginning at
the end of the daily matches on the event
site itself.
Last year
Argentinas Mariano Baracetti and Martin
Conde stole the crown from Brazilians
Ricardo and Loiola, while Adriana and Shelda
took the womens title for Brazil.
But even though he only came away
with the silver medal, Loiola still praised
the event. "It's amazing! It's not like
this anywhere else in the world," the
Brazilian said, looking around at the
animated crowd. "Here in Austria they
really know how to cheer."
Among the top players who list Klagenfurt as their favorite World Tour
event are: Olympic champions Sydney 2000
Dain Blanton, Kerri Pottharst and Natalie
Cook, Jackie Silva (Olympic Champion Atlanta
1996) and FIVB Players Representative
Vegard Hoidalen.

Study: Private airport towers as safe, cheaper than government towers
By Mike M. Ahlers, CNN • Published 20th November 2012
Air traffic control towers staffed by private contractors are cheaper and provide the same level of safety as towers staffed by government controllers, a new government audit concludes.
Contract towers, as they are known, cost on average $537,000 a year to operate, compared with $2 million for comparably busy towers staffed by the Federal Aviation Administration, according to the Department of Transportation's Office of Inspector General. In addition, the contract towers had a "significantly lower number and rate of safety incidents," the report said.
Currently, 251 of the nation's 374 towers are staffed by contractors who must meet FAA standards and are overseen by FAA managers. Restricted to lower-volume airports, contract towers nonetheless handle 28 percent of all domestic airport operations.
The OIG report likely will give ammunition to Republican lawmakers who favor the privatization of everything from airport control towers to security checkpoints. But it is unlikely to result in an expansion of tower contracting, coming on the heels of the re-election of a president with strong public sector support.
The current hybrid system of contract- and government-staffed towers is a result of the decision by President Ronald Reagan to fire the striking Professional Air Traffic Controllers Organization controllers in 1981. After they were fired, the FAA moved its staff and managers to the busiest control towers, leaving smaller towers vacant.
The next year, the FAA started the Federal Contract Tower Program, placing contractors at five low-activity towers. The program expanded gradually. Of the 251 contract towers in operation today, about half were previously staffed by FAA controllers, and half are new towers built by communities, typically to promote economic development.
The new OIG audit compares 30 randomly selected contract towers to 30 comparable "low activity" FAA towers.
The report notes a large difference in operating costs mainly due to lower staffing and salary levels at contract towers. Contract towers had an average of six controllers, while FAA towers had 16. A typical contract controller near Tampa, Florida, received a base salary of $56,000 per year compared with a base salary ranging from $63,000 to $85,000 a year for an FAA controller in Sarasota, Florida, the study said.
Contract towers also had a "significantly lower number and rate of safety incidents," the report says. For example, 240 contract towers referenced in the review had 197 safety incidents, compared with 362 incidents at 92 similar FAA towers.
The National Air Traffic Controllers Association, which represents FAA controllers and controllers at 63 contract towers, said it is wrong to conclude that the lower rate of safety incidents at contract towers means those towers are safer. FAA controllers fall under a non-punitive reporting system that encourages controllers to voluntarily report errors.
"The FAA has a true safety culture, where all controllers and employees are encouraged to report all safety issues, including errors, while contract towers are dictated by a punitive culture that discourages controllers and their supervisors from reporting errors," said Sarah Dunn, a spokeswoman for the NATCA.
An advocate for contract controllers disagreed that contract controllers were less likely to report errors. "The culture is that you're fired if you don't report and it's found out," said J. Spencer Dickerson, executive director of the U.S. Contract Tower Association.
But he also said it is "a stretch" to conclude that contract towers are safer. He said the two systems have "comparable levels of safety."
"The irony of the program is a lot of controllers are retired FAA controllers," Dickerson said. FAA controllers must retire at age 56, but contract controllers have no such mandatory retirement age. "So it's a great opportunity for FAA controllers who do their 20 years and want to stay in the business," he said.
The "vast majority" of contract controllers are former FAA or former military controllers. They must be certified by the FAA and must meet the same medical requirements and are subject to the same drug testing.
But contract towers are "definitely more cost-effective to the taxpayers," Dickerson said. Airports that have contract towers "are very positive of the program," he said. "The reports are that it's seamless. Pilots will tell you they can't tell the difference between an FAA tower and the contract towers, and that's our goal."

Phaedra Brody
The face of he forlorn and melancholic character is redundant in Phaedra Brody?s work. Inward looking, she seems vacant. This artist?s feminine figure is a Hitchcock blonde. With an icy beauty, she is unapproachable and trivial, as well as sacred and savage. If not sensual, her sexual dimension is suggested and associated with dangerousness. The lack of explanation, of perfect coherence doesn?t matter. The photograph exists by itself or gives the spectator the opportunity to become the narrator of a story which resembles them.Read more Read less
The photographs are carefully packaged in order to ensure their optimal protection during transport.
Phaedra Brody is an Australian and Scottish photographer. After studying literature at the Sorbonne, she taught herself photography and chose this medium as a means of expression. Phaedra Brody has forged a particular style, using a blend of traditional and modern photographic techniques to obtain a result close to painting. Her photographs have been published in the international press and exhibited in France and New York.

Rihanna Shows Off New Long Hair
Rihanna was out and about in Los Angeles on Sunday, Jan. 6 and no, she didn't Instagram any topless or overly sexy shots. Instead, the singer, who hung out at the My Studio nightclub, showed off a brand new hairstyle. She traded her short, black pixie, which shows off all of her facial features, for a long, silky, ombre look. She often has long hair courtesy of extensions, but the color here is super standout.
RiRi, 24, is now sporting straight, dark brown strands with significantly lighter tips. It's still shaved on the side aka Skrillex hair, but overall, it's a long, lush and femme look.
Don't get used to it, though. RiRi is unpredictable when it comes to her coif and she changes it often, so she could easily go back to her close-cropped 'do or go with an extremely curly wig or a blonde shag. Oh wait, those are looks she sported in the past year and beyond.
The only constant when it comes to Rihanna's coif is change.
We wonder what her beau Chris Brown thinks of this longer, sexier look!
Ah, forget what he thinks. We want to know what you think, PopCrushers! Is RiRi's new hairstyle doing it for you or do you prefer her shorter and sexier?

Two injured in aggravated assault
On Thursday, March 17, Beaumont police officers were dispatched to Fast Lane along Interstate 10 in reference to a stabbing.
Upon arrival, they were advised by the two black male victims, a 34 and 32-year-old Beaumont males, and the witness, an 18-year-old man from Beaumont, that they had been at a residence in the 500 block of Palm spending the night with a female that they had just met.
They stated that they were awakened by several subjects who ran in the house and started beating them. One victim (the 34-year-old male) was stabbed, the second victim was struck in the face with a long gun and the other "witness" was unharmed. The actors then left the house. The victims all got in one of the victim's vehicle and were en-route to the hospital when a tire blew and they came to a stop at the Fast Lane.
The victims and witness were all from Beaumont and did not know the female's name or have any suspect information.
The stabbing victim was transported to St. Elizabeth and taken to surgery.

QPR goalkeeper Julio Cesar is on the verge of joining Napoli
Julio Cesar's agent has confirmed that the Queens Park Rangers goalkeeper is closing in on a move to Napoli.
By Simone Bargellini
Last Updated: 15/07/13 9:47am
Napoli are keen to sign the Brazil international on loan with QPR resigned to losing the keeper following their relegation from the Premier League.
Cesar enjoyed a successful spell in Italy with Inter Milan between 2005-12 and new Napoli boss Rafa Benitez is keen to lure him back to Serie A.
Arsenal and Villarreal have also been linked with a move for the 33-year-old, but it appears Napoli are set to win the race for his signature.
The player's agent, Josias Cardoso, has admitted Napoli and Arsenal have shown the most concrete interest in Cesar and that only a few details need to be resolved to see the keeper move to the San Paolo.
"It's not all done yet, there are many possibilities (he goes to Napoli), but there are some details to be resolved between the player and Napoli," Cardoso told calciomercato.it.
"When will the signature arrive? I don't know, it could be today, or in a few days.
"The Villarreal interest? There has been some interest from Spain, but nothing concrete.
"The only two concrete tracks are Arsenal and Napoli."

It was a dark and stormy night. A dense blanket of clouds lined the sky, obscuring every star. The rain fell in thick sheets, punctuated by bright, blinding flashes of lightening and deafening claps of thunder. The weather outside was not fit for man or beast!
I sat at my computer, (probably not a smart thing to do during a thunderstorm), and commiserated with several of my Twitter friends who were experiencing the same conditions. The funny thing was that most of us were exercising our frustrations in the exact same way - by baking - and tweeting about it!
In the midst of all that tumultuousness, I wanted to bake something to brighten things up a bit, figuratively speaking, of course. I searched through my stash of saved recipes and came across one for a Cream Cheese Pound Cake that I had bookmarked a while back from Smitten Kitchen. Now, you're probably wondering how a dense, rich pound cake could possibly impact the weather. It can't. But, when you add lots of bright, sunny lemon flavor to it, you can almost forget how miserable it is outside!
This recipe deviates from traditional pound cake recipes in that it calls for a quarter pound of cream cheese to be added in place of the same amount of butter. I didn't notice any significant difference in the texture of the cake. It was still very dense, moist and rich. But, there was a gentle tang to it that married really beautifully with the lemon. And, the top of the cake developed a wonderful crunchy, crackly crust. I don't know if the cream cheese had anything to do with this, but it was lovely.
This has become my hands down favorite pound cake, no matter what the weather! It is absolutely scrumptious! I certainly hope that you'll give it a try. If you don't, you'll be missing out on something very special.
Lemon Cream Cheese Pound Cake
Adapted from Staff Meals from Chanterelle via Smitten Kitchen
(Printable Recipe)
Makes two 5 x 9 loaf cakes or one 12-cup bundt cake
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, at room temperature
3 cups sugar
Zest from 2 lemons
6 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon pure lemon extract
3 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly butter and flour two 5 x 9 loaf pans. Alternately, you can use a 12-cup bundt pan.
Mix the sugar and the lemon zest in a small bowl and rub the zest into the sugar with your fingers. The warmth from your fingers will release the oils from the zest and flavor the sugar. Set aside.
Place the butter and cream cheese in a large bowl and beat with a mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add the sugar, increase the speed to high, and beat until light and airy, about five minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition and scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. Add the vanilla and lemon extracts. Then, add the flour and salt all at once. Mix just until incorporated.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan(s) and shake lightly to even out the top. Bake until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean, about 1 1/4 hours.
Cool the cake(s) on a rack for 20 minutes. Remove the cake(s) from the pan(s) and let cool completely.
Serve at room temperature.

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. — Jerry Dipoto turned Mark Trumbo into three arms and a bat. That is the work of a magician.
Provided, of course, that the Angels get solid production from those three arms and a bat. If not, the Angels' general manager just made 30 home runs disappear, and maybe his job with it.
On Monday, when the Angels arrived at the winter meetings, they had a three-man starting rotation. On Tuesday, they got to the minimum five, trading Trumbo to the Arizona Diamondbacks in a three-way deal that brought left-hander Tyler Skaggs from Arizona and left-hander Hector Santiago from the Chicago White Sox.
That is Step 1.
The Angels saved about $3 million in the trade, giving them about $18 million in available funds. Step 2 is to sign veteran Matt Garza, if he agrees to a short-term deal, or perhaps a lesser free-agent starter along the lines of Chris Capuano, Jason Hammel or Mike Pelfrey. Step 3 is to sign a free-agent hitter along the lines of Raul Ibanez or Eric Chavez.
Then the Angels could use Santiago as a swingman, at the head of a depth chart among starting pitchers that did not exist last season. They could use the bat to make up maybe half the pop they lost by trading Trumbo. And, most important, they could pray that Albert Pujols and Josh Hamilton resemble their pre-Anaheim selves.
Whether this is a three-step plan to contention or oblivion could depend largely on the unproven pitchers Dipoto acquired Tuesday. With little in the way of prospects to offer or money to spend, Dipoto spent his most valuable trade chip on two starting pitchers with a total of 11 major league victories.
This, he insisted, was Plan A.
"If we were moving Mark in any deal, we were going to get young pitchers that we could grow up with," Dipoto said.
Translation: We needed cheap labor with potential, not proven arms with hefty price tags or free agency in the near future. That's what you get when the Pujols and Hamilton signings inflate the payroll and deprive the team of top draft picks.
Skaggs, 22, was a part of the Angels' incredible draft class of 2009. Mike Trout was the headliner, followed by Skaggs and Garrett Richards, two-fifths of the Angels' rotation next season, and Patrick Corbin, a National League All-Star last season. In 2010, the Angels fired the man who drafted them all, scouting director Eddie Bane.
By that time, the Angels had acquired veteran starter Dan Haren in a five-player trade that sent Skaggs and Corbin to Arizona. The general manager on the Diamondbacks' end of that trade: Dipoto.
Skaggs started seven games for Arizona last season, six in 2012, on a shuttle between the major leagues and minor leagues, all the while working to add a changeup to go with an excellent curve and decent fastball.
"We feel like he's ready to cut his teeth in the big leagues," Dipoto said. "He's had a cameo the last two years. We feel like now he's ready for a full-time role."
Trumbo, 27, has had a full-time role with the Angels for three years, leading the team in home runs every year. He hit 34 last season. He was popular among fans, respected in the clubhouse. He was born in Anaheim and played high school ball at Villa Park, but he was long aware that his power could get the Angels what they needed and get him a ticket out of town.
"I'm just really thankful for the opportunity that I got," Trumbo said. "I couldn't have asked for anything more … being from Southern California and being a lifelong Angels fan, getting a chance to play three years in front of family and friends is something I wouldn't trade for anything in the world."
There might be no safer bet in baseball than Trumbo hitting 30 home runs next year, in hitter-friendly Chase Field, barring injury. There is nothing safe about the Angels' bet, but there are a summer and a career that ride on it.

ancient sourdough
Hello from Italy! I discovered this site that gives a very useful map of SOURDOUGH DEALER all over the italian peninsula!
Thanks to this initiative I have now a new friend and she gave me last week 100g of a very old sourdough which origin are from the south of Italy (Calabria). This sourdough is older than me: it's 42 years old!
This loaf above is made with that sourdough, it rose for 12 hours and it's flavoured and sweet..delicious!
But my husband is worried.
Is it healthy use a paste that we don't know where it comes from?
Or cooking eliminates the problem?
Thank you
Bye Scake

Marcus Shelby, a bandleader who's not known for thinking small, has recorded his most ambitious work to date: a colorful and wide-ranging oratorio for jazz orchestra and vocal ensemble centered around the remarkable life of Harriet Tubman who rose from slavery to become one of the guiding forces behind the Underground Railroad in the years before the Civil War and would later risk her life to serve as nurse, scout and spy for the Union during that long and bloody conflict.
Using Kate Clifford Larson's book Harriet Tubman: Bound for the Promised Land as the inspiration for his music, Shelby found the perfect "Harriet Tubman" in the evocative voice of Faye Carol who invests every phrase with heartfelt awareness and emotion. The two-CD set is divided into as many "acts," the first depicting Tubman's early life and escape from bondage, the second her extraordinary leadership as an anti-slavery advocate and heroic roles as a member of the Union Army and outspoken champion of voting rights for women and blacks.
Music, Shelby writes, was an indispensable part of Tubman's life (she even used it in coded messages to aid runaway slaves), and he uses a wide range of musical designs and styles to exemplify her story and the era in which she lived. It's not all vocal; Shelby's splendid 15-piece orchestra plays a key role in every movement, and Shelby is careful to leave ample room for improvisation. Carol is one of four singers; the others are Kenny Washington, Jeannine Anderson and Joseph Mace, each of whom adds substantial weight to the discourse. One or more of the singers is heard on seven of the eleven "episodes" that comprise the oratorio.
Even while telling such a dramatic story in song, Shelby seldom strays from its jazz mainspring, implanting urbane rhythmic and harmonic components into every "scene." Trumpeters Mike Olmos and Darren Johnston, alto saxophonists Gabe Eaton and Marcus Stephens, tenor / clarinetist Rob Baries, bass trombonist Marc Bolin and pianist Adam Shulman are among the more frequently heard soloists. Shulman, Shelby and drummer Jeff Marrs make up the orchestra's savvy rhythm section.
This is music with an explicit message, and its endorsement rests in part on one's admiration for what Shelby and his colleagues have to say. Reinforcing Shelby's theme, however, is an abundance of exemplary big-band jazz, more than enough to elicit one's approval and assure his / her satisfaction.
Dazzle Records
9th+Lincoln is a forward-leaning seventeen-piece big band from Denver, CO, led by Tyler Gilmore who wrote five of the nine selections on the ensemble's unnamed debut album and co-wrote the brief "Interlude 1" with guitarist Dave Devine. While the band's makeup is fairly orthodox (five saxophones, four trumpets, four trombones and rhythm including vibes and guitar but no piano), Gilmore's chartsand those by saxophonist Wil Swindler ("Music for Prose," "Interlude 2," rock star Bjork's "Aeroplane")are clearly on the cutting edge, basically ensemble pieces that are sometimes dark and brooding with occasional flashes of fire and brimstone.
That's not an appraisal, merely an observation, and a cue that 9th+Lincoln's music may not suit everyone's taste, as it does command one's undivided attention. Gilmore lists among his compositional mentors John Hollenbeck, Maria Schneider, Mike Holober, Alf Clausen, Cuong Vu and Paul Chihara, a roster that should help listeners ascertain what to expect. Yes, the music can be dissonant at times, and there are brief passages that may test one's resolve, but others that are quite lovely and charming. This is especially true at the midpoint, Swindler's "Music for Prose" and Gilmore's "The Wasp," the first featuring Swindler's alto, tenor Dominic Lalli and trumpeter Kevin Whalen, the second tenor Peter Sommer.
The ensemble doesn't really cut loose and swing with abandon until the final track, Gilmore's "Sketching Restraint," a nimble showcase for trumpet ace Brad Goode who's now at the University of Colorado after stops in Chicago and Cincinnati. Goode is heard again with Devine on Gilmore's "Your Cent." Devine and Lalli are the soloists on "Giving Full Account," Whalen and Swindler on "Aeroplane," Devine and Sommer on "And You'll . . ." The "interludes" are strange but mercifully brief with "special effects" by Devine and vibraphonist Greg Harris.
For modernists and others with open minds, an ample banquet of well-cooked musical cuisine. Those who admire the composer / arrangers listed above should find it very much to their liking.
Start your music shopping from All About Jazz and you'll support us in the process. Learn how.

(Updates with ICRC statement)
LONDON (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Israel declared a Gaza ceasefire over on Friday, saying Hamas militants breached the truce soon after it came in effect and apparently captured an Israeli officer while killing two other soldiers.
Renewed Israeli shelling killed more than 50 Palestinians and wounded some 220, hospital officials said. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called his security cabinet into special session and publicly warned Hamas and other militant groups they would "bear the consequences of their actions".
Gaza officials say at least 1,509 Palestinians, mostly civilians, have been killed and 7,000 wounded. Sixty-three Israeli soldiers have been killed and more than 400 hurt. Three civilians have been killed by Palestinian rockets in Israel.
Here is a summary of the humanitarian response. If your agency is involved in emergency efforts, please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Here is a summary of the humanitarian response. If your agency is involved in emergency efforts, please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) said it was "appalled" by the damage caused to the hospitals and branch offices of the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) during the conflict in Gaza.
It said a PRCS compound in Khan Younis came under attack on Friday, and that about 250 people were sheltering in the compound when it was hit.
Two days ago, the main PRCS hospital and administrative facility were caught in the crossfire.
"PRCS staff and volunteers have been working round the clock to save lives, bring help and keep hope alive; with the worsening of the conflict, the obstacles to their work and the danger they face have grown alarmingly," said Robert Mardini, head of ICRC operations for the Near and Middle East.
"The PRCS are doing vital, extraordinary work and they must be allowed to continue doing so in safety. The collapse of the humanitarian space must be averted at all costs. Once again, the ICRC calls on the parties to stop the killing, injuring and endangering of civilians and large-scale destruction of civilian property," Mardini said in a statement.
Oxfam warned on Friday that the humanitarian crisis in Gaza is 'spiralling out of control', with 450,000 people sheltering, and many people getting as little as three litres of safe water a day. It also said the risks of disease are growing acute, with thirty cases of meningitis reported.
Oxfam is working with local partners to supply water to over 70,000 people. It has also been working with hospitals, but six of Gaza's nine hospitals have been hit or badly damaged, with three now closed.
"The massive destruction of infrastructure and the ongoing Israeli bombardment means aid workers are increasingly overwhelmed and struggling to meet even basic needs," said the charity in a statement.
Doctors of the World
Doctors of the World said on Friday that hospitals were facing shortages of medical supplies and a chronic lack of fuel.
"These issues have been exacerbated by frequent electricity cuts, often for more than 20 hours a day, due to the recent bombing of Gaza's power plant," it said in a statement
"We are running out of space in hospital for the huge number of bodies that are coming in," says Dr. Hosam Abu-Elwan, a Doctors of the World volunteer who works at the Nasser hospital in Gaza. "There is also a lack of basic drugs."
Mercy Corps
"Our teams were out this morning when the ceasefire was broken – they scrambled back to safety and luckily no one was hurt. But, coordination of humanitarian relief is becoming more and more difficult," said Stu Willcuts, director of Mercy Corps' Gaza humanitarian response.
"We are without power in Gaza so phones and laptops are dying. Phone towers are being taken down by air strikes. With shelling and bombing 24 hours a day, the very fact that our teams are able to work at all, is beyond words," he said in a statement.

The last week I started to solve problems from an old russian collection of problems, but have stick on these 4:
1) Prove(formal) that Petersen graph has chromatic number 3(meaning that its vertices can be colored with three colors).
2) Prove(formal) that Petersen graph has a Hamiltonian path.
3) Does the Petersen graph has an Eulerian path(prove your opinion)?
4) For Petersen graph- prove that any set of five elemental vertices induced subgraph with at least one edge.
I've an idea for the first 3, but don't know how to prove them formal...

Globalization has changed the way garment-printing companies compete, both in the US and abroad.
By Rick Davis
Did you know that much of the high-volume contract printing work once handled by domestic garment printers is now going to foreign shops? Learn why offshore competition has increased and how US printers can take advantage of this trend.
In the past ten years, the textile screen-printing industry has progressed through a metamorphosis that no one could have imagined. Mass merchandizing and low labor costs in foreign countries have driven garment prices down to levels that have not been seen since the mid 1970s. As a result, a large number of the biggest garment manufacturers in the US have been forced to consolidate their assets, sell off their domestic production capabilities, or fold altogether.
At the same time, many of the largest garment screen-printing operations have also downsized or closed due to foreign competition or a decrease in business. The larger facilities that remain are left to devise ways of staying competitive and profitable.
The trend became noticeable with the passage of the North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). After NAFTA, a number of large contract-printers moved their operations to Mexico, lured by NAFTA incentives, as well as lower production costs. For some US firms that relocated, the experience was eye opening as they learned that business practices in Mexico bare little resemblance to business dealings in the US. Many of the print shops that were quick to move south of the border have either returned to the US to start anew or gone under. Others, however, discovered quality and cost savings that make foreign manufacturing very appealing.
New responsibilities
One of the changes that came with the globalization of our industry was that large contract printers were forced to diversify into new and/or different applications. Some became specialty printing companies, mastering new special-effects techniques, such as high-density printing. Others expanded beyond printing into new applications like embroidery.
While all of this diversification was taking place, the overall market for imprinted garments shrank, due in part to unstable economic conditions and decreased consumer spending. To keep their businesses alive, contract printers had to expand their services until they could offer full packaging programs. Full packaging meant that the companies now offered or controlled garment manufacturing, printing, packaging, and shipping, all to the customer's specifications.

Tilt it up or down to frame high- and low-angle shots that would otherwise be hit-or-miss. Tilt and swivel under the camera for self-portraits. Finally, the monitor folds flush to the camera with the LCD exposed for shooting or protected for travel.
ISO 16000 sensitivity
Incredibly clear low-light pictures without sacrificing detail, made possible by the low-noise Exmor APS HD CMOS image sensor and refined BIONZ image processor.
Upgraded BIONZ image processor
The brain of the camera is a Sony?s BIONZ image processor substantially upgraded for the demands of 24.3 megapixel photography. Chroma noise reduction delivers high-resolution, low-noise photos even at ISO 16000. Also enables fast processing for up to 10 fps continuous shooting of data-intensive 24.3 MP images, 2D/3D Sweep Panorama modes and 6-image layering.
SteadyShot INSIDE stabilization
Image stabilization reduces blur by compensating for camera shake. Typical DSLR systems build image stabilization into selected lenses only. SteadyShot INSIDE image stabilization is built into the camera body itself. You'll reduce blur with every A Mount lens, including macro and wide-aperture standard zoom lenses.
P/A/S/M exposure modes
The camera offers a full range of controls from the beginner's AUTO+ mode to P/A/S/M: Program, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority and Manual. On-screen prompts help you refine your skills, build your confidence and exercise greater creative control.

FLEFF Intern Voices
The Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival from the interns' point of view
Wednesday, February 22, 2012
Blog posting written by Chloe Wilson, Television-Radio '14, FLEFF Intern, Ashland, Massachusetts.
Hey FLEFFers!
So I'm going to liveblog a FLEFF session that is for the interns, but I figured all you interested FLEFFers will get a kick out of this info too. This session is focused on The Concert for Microtopias and is hosted by two of the musicians performing in the concert.
Here goes!
6:58 PM- Patty Zimmerman (FLEFF Festival Coordinator and Ithaca College professor) is introducing "The Concert for Microtopias" and it sounds fantastic! Turns out we're using the Whelan School of Music for a concert location.
6:59 PM- Ann and Phil get a shout-out from Patty! #Awesome
7:01 PM- The actresses involved in the performance are loving the microtopia theme! The concert has been commissioned by FLEFF and is free!
7:05 PM- Patty Zimmerman is introducing pianist Debbie Martin and baritone Brad Hougham.
7:07 PM- Brad has the floor! (He loves FLEFF because he gets to pick what he sings.)
7:09 PM- Debbie says that she loves working with dead people (musicians, I hope/am pretty sure of). Debbie shares a story about a man and his fabric collection (and Brad bought the guy's house and it's full of fabric) and his fabric room.
7:11 PM- Debbie: "We thought we'd start off my choosing some of our favorite things to play. Different things that make you happy or inspired or feeling feelings at the most extreme levels. That's what you'll find here. You'll find everything from different countries to different takes on spiritual things to ethnic things. Old, old-old music, new music, it's really a lot of different things."
7:14 PM- Debbie made us stand up and clap/dance along to music! It was hard to liveblog...
7:15 PM- Brad is playing us a German song with lyrics from a sacred text. As somebody who has sung in German, it's really hard! Gotta give the singer props.
7:16 PM- Recording isn't working... bummer.
7:17 PM- FLEFF Team Leader springs into action! She saves the day!
7:18 PM- Discovering a love for German opera right now.
7:20 PM- The title of the song (when translated) is "I Have Enough," as it "I have enough knowing that I'll go to heaven." What a great aria! (Guess my older brother's interest in Gilbert and Sullivan is rubbing off on me! Even though this particular opera is from Bach...)
7:21 PM- Brad gets to sing this piece? He mus be so excited! (He is. He also just said so.)
7:24 PM- Debbie is playing the piano for us. It's such a soft melody. Makes me wish I was that talented...
7:27 PM- Brad is playing a recording of the piece that Debbie just played. The soprano is amazing and its such a soft lullaby!
7:30 PM- This soft opera lullaby is going to be followed up by Maurice Ravel's "Pavane pour une infante defunte." I recognize this! (I used to study at the New England Conservatory. It was all music all the time!)
7:34 PM- Debbie says that the challenge will be to take these orchestral pieces and adapt them fully to piano. It's going to be hard to adapt harp for two pianos!
7:35 PM- Next on the program?! "Wade in the Water!!!!" I'm so excited! I performed to this in high school and am obsessed with this song.
7:36 PM- Listening to Big Mama Thornton's cover!
7:38 PM- I always get chills listening to this song! This cover is by the African American Choral Ensemble. Loving the alto line in this!
7:40 PM- Brad says that microtopias occur all over the IC campus... when professors teach in their classroom, in organizations, etc.
7:42 PM- From Debbie: The word "tarantella" comes from "tarantula." Ew...
7:43 PM- Listening to "Anytime" by William Finn.
7:45 PM- Somebody is asking a great question about how to collaborate over long distances! Brad is saying that they owe a lot to Patty and that she helps bring everyone together.
7:47 PM- Debbie is going to Berlin to practice with her fellow pianist! I'm jealous, it's such a beautiful city and there's so much history.
7:50 PM- Debbie: "If you really sit and think about it... these small moments of every aspect of who we are and what we are and it's fragmented and yet it can come together... That's what we're aiming for. This should be a new experience! Something that you don't do all the time."
7:51 PM- Brad: "I feel that FLEFF has opened my boundaries greatly... Just knowing that this is Ithaca, it's a really tremendous and wonderful safe place where you can expand yourself as an artist."
7:52 PM- Brad: "I love music and I love pushing the limit. I love having the music speak to people."
7:55 PM- Art Jones is the VJ for the concert! According to Patty, he has never worked with classical musicians. This will be a cool experience for everyone!
8:00 PM- Brad: "It's interesting to wonder what brings people to the concert. I think it's great that people are there because of music and their appreciation and love of music. I think that having a response is also really important. Not applause at the end, it's about the sense of something being given and something being received."
8:03 PM- And that's a wrap! Brava! Thank you! Encore! Many other words to express the thanks of the FLEFF interns.
What music would you want to hear at a FLEFF concert? What if it could be anything (Britney Spears, Sutton Foster, Jarhand... literally, anyone!)? Sound off below!

Justin Bieber, Rihanna and the boys of One Direction are in a serious race to collect the most tattoos.
Over the weekend, RiRi added a large etching to her arm, while the 1D dudes are always hitting up the tattoo parlor and inking up. Not to be outdone, The Biebs has added another tattoo and filled in a previously existing piece.
Da Biebs has been working on a sleeve for quite some time and he appears to have added a compass in the meaty part of his arm. That's considered quite a painful area, since it's such a fleshy region of the arm. It also looks like the singer is working it into an overall piece.
Clearly, he has an interest in art, be it tattoos or graffiti. Before taking a peek at the tattoos, we have to ask Beliebers. Are you into The Biebs' new ink or is he going overboard?
