Frog Leg Logic
Marty Ehrlich is a uniquely erudite, civilized outcat. Like outcats everywhere, he slashes and burns and lives on the edge. But his jagged abstractions and flaming trajectories take place within carefully organized forms. The opening title track, a crashing anthem, makes you think of Ornette Coleman’s quartets with Don Cherry. Ehrlich’s shrill, swooping alto saxophone and James Zollar’s tart, brash trumpet duel like musical fighter planes, high in the sky. Beneath them, | cellist Hank Roberts and drummer Michael Sarin churn and plunge.
But in Ehrlich’s quartet, trilling effusions from the leader and spattering tantrums from Zollar make way for planned thematic recurrences and transitional riffs. Events are timed. Sarin’s explosive drum solo arrives on schedule.
And Coleman would not have composed an extended, formal, elegant line like “Ballade.” Ehrlich’s arrangement, with its counterpoint and evolving voicings, makes a quartet sound orchestral. Yet “Ballade” generates the wildest solos on the album. | [

Will Newtown Killings Shift Public's Attitude On Guns?
Originally published on Sun December 16, 2012 10:22 am
The tragedy in Newtown, Conn., will surely spur pollsters to ask Americans again about guns, gun ownership, gun laws and the Second Amendment.
If recent experience is a good guide, public opinion may not shift too much.
"Recent mass shootings have had little impact on the public's attitudes toward gun control. That was the case after the Colorado theater shootings; similarly, views | of gun control changed little after the Jan. 2011 shooting in Tucson Arizona, which killed six people and seriously wounded former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.

GCS removes pyre ash in United Kingdom's hoof-and-mouth disease carcass cleanup
Feb 1, 2002 12:00 PM
Gulf Container Systems (GCS) of Morecambe, Lancashire, England, is removing 130,000 tons of pyre ash from nearly 200 sites across England, Scotland, and Wales after farm animal carcasses were incinerated in the wake of a hoof-and-mouth disease epidemic, according to the United Kingdom Department for Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs (DEFRA).
Mike Tas, DEFRA director of disposal operations, said, “To date, over 6,000 loads have been moved by road and 1,400 loads by combined road and rail without incident or accident, a testimony to the inherent safety of container transport and the skills of British lorry (truck) drivers.”
Since May 2001, GCS has removed more than 80,000 tons of contaminated soil and ash, using a fleet of 60 vehicles, 400 ISO container units, and 11 separate collection teams involving | 300-plus personnel. Work is expected to continue on a few sites until spring 2002.
DEFRA appointed GCS to develop a safe method for recovery of the ash and its transportation in sealed ISO containers. GCS designed a loading and transport system using various loading methods, including an integral polypropylene liner secured inside the container. The liner was designed for rear-entry or top-loading containers to accommodate various site and ash conditions. Once filled, the liner could be sealed before being detached from the container and deposited directly in the landfill.

Class is in session
By Jennifer Marks, editor-in-chief -- Home Textiles Today, 8/30/2004 12:00:00 AM
I'll be spending the last week of August in China doing the usual things trade editors do — visiting a few factories, spending time in the sourcing offices of U.S. companies and taking in a trade show.
And at week's end, I'm giving a presentation to the China Home Textiles Association, addressing the group 17 weeks before the last of the quotas drop.
I'm going to tell them about the choice between dealing through suppliers versus selling directly to retailers. I'm going to talk about the importance of product consistency, solid supply lines and all the standard components that go into today's buyer/seller relationship.
But I'm also going to tell them which issues HTT believes will be critical in the 18 to 24 months following quota elimination.
Safeguard provisions: Many executives believe that the government will enact safeguard provisions against Chinese goods within months of quota elimination. I say this based on | anecdotal reports and a poll on HTT's home page, in which 51 percent predicted the United States will move forward with some sort of restrictions.
The portfolio approach: Because the U.S. market expects instability once quotas are removed, most players say they will spread their orders among several manufacturers in several countries. While most manufacturers predict that China will dominate in home textiles manufacturing, importers are concerned about the possibility of safeguard restrictions.
Pricing: Because of the impact of quota elimination, everyone expects pricing competition to be fierce, especially in the first half of the year. But as | [

Listed among philanthropists, politicians, corporate executives and educators, those with local connections on the 2013 list of Most Influential Georgians include U.S. Congressman Phil Gingrey, State School Superintendent John Barge and Coosa River Basin Initiative Executive Director and Riverkeeper Joe Cook.
In its 15th year, the list highlights “the state’s most powerful and influential citizens who affect the lives and livelihood of all Georgians,” according to the January 2013 issue of GeorgiaTrend, released this week.
Being named for the second time, Cook humbly accepted the recognition with hopes of raising awareness for water sources in northwest Georgia.

Corporate cash does funny things to people. Sen.

Mariners send down five, including Tuiasosopo
The Mariners made five roster moves this morning, including optioning utility man Matt Tuiasosopo to Triple A Tacoma.
Also reassigned to Minor League camp were four non-roster invitees: outfielder Mike Wilson and pitchers Royce Ring, Denny Bautista and Justin Miller.
Tuiasosopo had one option remaining, so this is the last year he can be sent down to the Minors without being exposed to waivers. The option lasts all season, so he can be moved between Tacoma and Seattle all year without being waived.
Tuiasosopo was hitting.300 with one home run and eight RBIs in 40 at-bats this spring.

The central historical event powering things is a monster battle known as the Feast at Hong Gate.

Thanks to your support and love of the oceans, Blue Ocean Institute’s 2011 Annual Gala was a wonderful success. Great auctions, good food, inspiring people, and Carl’s moving keynote speech all made for a memorable and meaningful evening.
Keynote: Carl Proposes a New Merger to Stabilize Nature
Continuing where he left off with his critically acclaimed new book The View From Lazy Point, Carl Safina, founder of Blue Ocean Institute at Stony Brook University, asked a rapt audience at the Institute’s annual gala last night to merge knowledge and commitment to stabilize a rapidly overheating planet and a changing ocean.
“If science can’t make biodiversity sufficiently sexy, and religion won’t step up to love this blue planet, what’s left? I propose a merger, but we can’t expect scientists or religious people to do the merging…It is up | to all of us, as usual, to carry this water. In our private and civic lives, our religious places, and our business dealings we must all merge a scientific love of knowledge with a devotion as consistent and values-based as any religion.”

* extra cardio without the pounding/high-impact of running = less chance for injuries
* easy way to ‘sneak’ in extra miles without upping your injury risk
* perfect for times when you ARE injured to stay in shape so the reality-slap back to running isn’t so painful
The standard elliptical is my choice of cross-training (of cous | re you could bike, aqua-jog, etc.) and so I think building a mobile one would then bust one of the biggest downfalls of cross-training in general: the boredom factor. Ummmm, slogging out hours on the elliptical is at time more of a mental workout than anything!
“I knew my body couldn’t tolerate running more than 80 miles per week, so I filled in gaps with the ElliptiGO,” states Lauren. “Instead of going out and putting the additional volume on my legs and joints, I rode it for the equivalent amount of time that I would be running | [

Pöck Lifts Minutemen to Overtime Win
Dec. 12, 2002
PRINCETON, N.J. - Thomas Pöck (Klagenfurt, Austria) scored two goals including the game-winner at the 2:37 mark of the overtime session to lead the UMass hockey team past a scrappy Princeton squad, 4-3, at Hobey Baker Memorial Rink. The win moves UMass' record to 10-6-0 overall.
The Minutemen had an impressive first period, putting much pressure on the Princeton defense, outshooting the Tigers 14-8. UMass finally broke through latte in the stanza | and took a 1-0 lead at the 14:50 mark.

Spider Cake (New England Skillet Corncake)
New Englanders have a reputation for being thrifty and austere. Those early settlers were a tough lot. Nearly half of the settlers who arrived on the Mayflower died that first year from exposure and starvation. The ones who survived did so in part because they learned to grow crops native to the New World, like corn.

Such is the case with Spider Cake, which thankfully does not include any actual spiders.

Old cookbooks have this cake appearing as early as the 1800s.

HUNTSVILLE – Three breast cancer survivors increase awareness by telling their stories.
Gloria Lowe, left, Wendy Shirtliff and Michelle Gardiner want women with breast cancer to know they are not alone.
Gloria Lowe battled cancer and won — twice.
“I had two cancers, totally different and unrelated,” said Lowe.
She was first diagnosed with ocular melanoma, a rare and aggressive eye cancer, at age 39.
“There is a 50 per cent survival rate because it’s so aggressive and because mine was so late in getting diagnosed – the tumour was so large – the only option they had was to remove my eye,” said Lowe.
Between her ocular melanoma diagnosis and her surgery, Lowe had two weeks to adjust to having cancer and losing her eye. Within a month she | was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis as well.
That was only the first part of her battle. The second came at age 46. This time it was breast cancer.
“I was at the cottage in the shower and I felt a lump,” said Lowe. “It didn’t feel right, but I didn’t say anything. I went back to Calgary and went to the doctor right away and he sent me for a mammogram.”
However, when the test results came back the doctor reviewed them and told Lowe not to worry. She said he told her the lump was | [

Hundreds take part in Penticton protest
300 gathered in Penticton's Gyro Park to take part in the Idle No More "One Heartbeat across Turtle Island" rally on the Winter Solstice, Dec. 21.

Grand Chief Stuart Phillip explained that the federal government’s reaction to the Attawapiskat situation is typical of the eroding relationship between the federal government and Aboriginal peoples.

Even an economically challenged person such as yours truly can deduce that significant cuts in public sector expenditure will hamper growth. So it was no great shakes that the governor of the Bank of England, Mervyn King, acknowledged this. But can British finance minister George Osborne's preoccupation with his country's credit rating rescue its faltering economy? The Conservative-LibDem alliance under David Cameron had adopted the classical dogma of inflicting pain in the early stage of office, with the hope of offering sweeteners in the last two years. Public memory being short, there could well be amnesia about the hardship if a feel good factor has replaced it.
Cameron has chosen India as his escape route. The relatively weak pound renders both imports from and investment in Britain attractive. In fact, Cameron's recent trip to India was opportune, since there's great expectation that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's visit to Brussels in October will facilitate a free trade agreement between India and the European Union | . Thus, Britain would probably have a head start over its continental rivals, such as Germany and France.
South Block is also pleased with the British coalition — Cameron made the right noises on Pakistan as opposed to the busybody tones of foreign minister David Miliband, who has persisted with a misplaced sympathy for Pakistani democracy.

Bonanza of bazaars
Four simultaneous pre-holiday events to be held Saturday in Chugiak
Need something to do this weekend? Forget Anchorage. Chugiak-Eagle River is the place to be.
Four bazaars will be held simultaneously Saturday, Nov. 3 from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. at the Chugiak-Eagle River Senior Center, Chugiak Elementary, River of Life Lutheran Church and St. John Orthodox Cathedral.
While vendors will be at each bazaar, all four locations have something unique to offer, said Senior Center fundraising coordinator Linda Miller.
“We’re all doing different things,” she said.
At the Senior Center, local kids will be displaying their talents, Miller said. Acts include the Eagle River Panthers’ Pop Warner cheerleaders; piano recitals from 10 of Emily Foreman’s students; a performance by Ravenwood Elementary’s choir; a performance by Chugiak High’s choir; demonstrations from Alaska Moving Arts Center dancers and martial arts students; and performances from the Alaska Fine Arts Academy including piano, guitar, violin, viola, cello and singing.
Santa Claus is | also dropping by from noon until 2 p.m., Miller said.
Delicious goodies, including homemade cookies and pies, will be on sale, she said.
At Chugiak Elementary, people can get into the holiday spirit with carriage rides offered by The Horse-Drawn Carriage Company, Miller said.

How To Sell Winners Like A Pro II: Second In A Series
Knowing when to buy a stock is just half of what it takes to become a successful investor. The other half? Knowing when to sell.
Investors who don't have a well-thought-out exit strategy are often doomed to watching gains evaporate or turn into losses.

This column examines one of those rules: Take profits | when your stock suffers its biggest one-day (or weekly) point loss, typically in big volume, since its breakout from a good base.

[Update: the reveal trailer for Black Ops 2 has arrived. Check it out here!]
Though the answer to what the next Call of Duty will be titled and when it will release has already been revealed, there are still plenty more questions left to be answered. One of the most important ones, and one that fans didn’t expect might need some clarification, was when this game might be set.
While the longstanding assumption has been that Black Ops 2 would be set during or after the Vietnam War, and would pick up the story of Alex Mason, that might not be the case at all. A closer | look at a rumored poster for the game depicts a character brandishing some much more modern duds.
Previous rumors regarding the game suggested that we might be seeing future (or futuristic warfare) and a video of a quadrotor helicopter was believed to be one of the game’s multiplayer killstreaks, but fans still were holding out hope that Black Ops 2 would be a true sequel. The ideas explored in the first game, while a bit outside of the traditional Call of Duty realm, were quite unique, and added a little something extra to the storytelling.

With an old-school idea and a few modern twists, most of Houston's "Top Ten Most Wanted Gang Fugitives" have been captured within the past 100 days.

In the news: A 24-year-old Canadian man was arrested after getting drunk and telling kids that Santa Claus isn't real - while they were at an annual Santa parade. The charges are for being drunk in public, but officials weren't happy with the man's anti-Santa message. "It was pretty despicable that someone, during this time of the year, would tell kids Santa isn't real - which of course we would argue," Const. Steve Koopman told the Toronto Star.

As a blogger, it’s not my practice to fill something with comments from others, but after reading the Federal Computer Week’s article on nepotism within the Veterans Administration, I was outraged. Unlike others, I just shook my head in amazement, but then this follow up blog appeared yesterday with these comments from veterans. Their comments to the article after this article made me want to post them in this blog.
“…(the)VA will do the minimal to make this go away. They’ll overcomplicate the response and hope it blows over. Meanwhile, veterans wounded in combat will continue to suffer poor service, in part due to inadequate information technology. (You can’t even do a chat with VA, and they send me all sorts of snail mail.) Meanwhile, OI&T employees will continue to screw the veteran, while apparently “engaging in inappropriate relationships” with each other while using dollars supposed to be used for the veteran.”

The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie

Theatrical release poster
|Directed by||Luis Buñuel|
|Produced by||Serge Silberman|
|Written by||Luis Buñuel
|Editing by||Hélène Plemiannikov|
|Running time||102 minutes|
The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (French: Le charme discret de la bourgeoisie) is a 1972 surrealist film directed by Luis Buñuel and written by Jean-Claude Carrière in collaboration with the director. The film was made in France and is mainly in French, with some dialogue in Spanish.
The narrative concerns a group of upper-middle-class people attempting — despite continual interruptions — to dine together. The film received the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film and a nomination for Best Original Screenplay.
The film consists of several thematically linked scenes: five gatherings of a group of bourgeois friends, and the four dreams of different characters. The beginning of the film focuses on the gatherings, while the latter part focuses on the dreams, but both types of scenes are intertwined. There are also | scenes involving other characters, such as two involving a Latin American female terrorist from the fictitious Republic of Miranda. The film's world is not logical: the bizarre events are accepted by the characters, even if they are impossible or contradictory.

It turns out it wasn't that difficult for Darius Rucker to make the transition from frontman of the frat party pop band Hootie and the Blowfish to solo country star. His second country disc, "Charleston, SC 1966," mostly sounds like a really good Hootie record with fiddles and a more pronounced Southern accent.
Fifteen years ago, the ascension of an AfricanAmerican pop singer into the country Top Ten would have been unthinkable. These days, the boundaries between country and pop are so porous, Rucker's crossover career seems remarkably unremarkable.
"Charleston, SC 1966" (named for the date and place of Rucker's birth) solidifies rather than expands the sound of his '08 country debut, "Learn to Live." It's solid and genial, with the low-key hooks and bland charms of a Hootie album, painted by numbers.
There are songs extolling married love ("Might Get Lucky"), generic Nashville-lite songs about girl ogling ("I Don't Care" with Brad Paisley, not in his finest hour) and songs asserting Rucker's | Southern country boy-ness ("Southern State of Mind"). Because he's Southern, you know. In case you had forgotten. And the album's title wasn't enough to remind you.
Rucker may occasionally protest too much, but he's also confident enough to comfortably dispatch a '70s AM, Haggard/Charley Pride-style ballad like "Whiskey and You," perhaps | [

In 1996, a gathering of well-known people came to celebrate my father’s 85th birthday. It was, however, a strange event for me because my father couldn’t be there. Two years into the long goodbye of Alzheimer’s, he was no longer attending public gatherings.
I’d flown from New York, where I was living, to L.A. for the party at Chasen’s restaurant, which had been shut down for a year but was re-opened for this one night. Larry King Live was there via satellite and my sister Maureen and I were to be interviewed live for his show at the start of the evening.
Sitting beside Maureen in a leather booth, microphones clipped to our collars, with Larry King on the monitor, I saw Newt Gingrich in the doorway getting miked up. I leaned over to Maureen and whispered, “Oh no, Newt Gingrich is going to sit by me. God is really testing me tonight.”
Of course the microphone at my throat picked up everything. | The next day, my comment would be reported in The Washington Post and beyond. But right then, I had to deal with the fact that here was Newt, sliding into the booth beside me.

AN INTERVIEW WITH JACK LONDON SCHOLAR
Susan M. Nuernberg, Ph.D.
Chancellor's Leadership Fellow
Associate Professor of English
Please trace the origin of your interest in Jack London.
I wanted to understand modern American civilization, most aspects of which were solidifying in the late 19th- and early 20th-century. Jack London, better than any other single writer, provides a wide-angle lens for viewing the social and intellectual milieu of that period.
In higher education American literature studies, does London have a high "standing"?
I teach London's The People of the Abyss in American Literary Realism and Naturalism, along with "South of the Slot", "The Apostate", "How I Became a Socialist" and "What Life Means to Me." I want the students to see that he was intellectually honest and above all, a writer of ideas. We come to London after reading Riis' How the Other Half Lives | and Crane's Maggie, A Girl of the Streets, so they readily grasp his materialistic approach, his compassion for the underdog, and his critique of capitalism.
Aside from the "He was a writer of dog stories" canard what are some of the misunderstandings about London and his works?"
