Karoline Bjørnson (de soltera Reimers, 1 de desembre de 1835 – 27 de juny de 1934) va ser una actriu noruega. És més coneguda com l'esposa i defensora del poeta, dramaturg, orador popular i premi Nobel Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson.

Biografia

Karoline Johanne Elisabeth Reimers va néixer a Etne a Hordaland i va créixer a Bergen, Noruega. Era filla de Rasmus Helt Reimers (1801–1884) i Marie Jahn (1806–1841). Les famílies Reimers i Jahn havien emigrat originàriament d'Alemanya . VA estudiar al Kristiania Norske Theatre des de 1854. El 1858 se li va donar un paper en una obra de teatre al Det Norske Theatre de Bergen, i després es va unir al teatre en una gira a Trondheim. Es va casar amb Bjørnstären Bjørnson des de 1858 i fins a la seva mort el 1910. Va ser el model de diverses figures de dones literàries de Bjørnson i va ajudar amb articles i altres obres literàries. Les figures "Klara Sang" i "Tora Parsberg" estan inspirades en ella. Diversos dels poemes de Bjørnson estan dedicats a la seva dona Karoline.

Era mare de sis fills, cinc dels quals van viure fins a l'edat adulta:

 Bjørn Bjørnson (1859–1942)
 Einar Bjørnson (1864–1942)
 Erling Bjørnson (1868–1959)
 Bergliot Ibsen (1869–1953)
 Dagny Bjørnson (1871–1872)
 Dagny Bjørnson (1876–1974)

Va morir a Aulestad, la finca familiar de Follebu, Oppland, als 98 anys.

La pintura de Bjørnstjerne i Karoline Bjørnson d'Eyolf Soot (1859–1928) de 1897 es troba a la Galeria Nacional de Noruega. Va ser retratada per Bernhard Folkestad (1879–1933) el 1912, i per Olaf Gulbransson (1873–1958) el 1923. Va ser objecte d'una biografia de l'autor Øyvind Anker (1904–1989) al seu llibre Boken om Karoline (Oslo: Aschehoug, 1982).

NEC Debuts High-Brightness Short-Throw Projectors
By David Nagel
NEC's U310W offers a native resolution of 1,280 x 800 and can project a 40-inch image from a distance of 1 foot from the screen. It's expected to ship in December.
NEC has launched two new projectors designed for high-light output and ultra-short throw distances for interactive whiteboards or other classroom applications.
Boasting a brightness of 3,000 lumens and 3,100 lumens, respectively, the new U300X and U310W can project relatively large images from as little as 12 inches. The U300X has a throw ratio of 0.377:1 and a resolution of 1,024 x 768 (XGA), while the U310W has a throw ratio of 0.3:1 and a resolution of 1,280 x 800 (WXGA). Both of the single-chip DLP models offer a contrast ratio of 2,000:1.
Both of the projectors are 3D-ready and integrate DLP Link technology. Other features include:
Support for closed captioning;
Automatic vertical keystone correction (specific ranges not available at press time);
LAN connectivity via RJ-45 (10/100 base-T);
DDC/CI for controlling the projector without additional cables;
Remote diagnostics;
3,000-hour lamp life in economy mode; and
Automatic power on.
Complete details on AV inputs and outputs were not available at press time. NEC said both models include HDMI and dual RGB computer inputs, as well as variable audio out and an integrated 10 watt speaker.
The U300X and U310W are expected to sip in December. The U310W will sell for $1,299; the U300X will sell for $1,199. Further information about the projectors will be available here.

The Challenges (and Solutions) of Digital Integration

redpajama_set_name: RedPajamaCommonCrawl


Most designers I know are intelligent, well educated, and have amassed extensive knowledge about design, art, music, and many other topics. The majority of designers spend 13 years in standard K-12 education (in the USA), and then go on to get their undergraduate degrees in design, art or disciplines in between. Not a few of them go on to receive graduate degrees in art and design, and a couple even continue to a PhD. In 20+ years of education, designers are exposed to a tremendous amount of stuff—from simple things like counting and spelling, to complex ideas of semiotic theory, philosophy and visual language.
With all this knowledge and information we acquire, one of the most useful things to learn is learning what you don't know. Learning to be confused. Learning that you do not know more than you do. Not only is this useful, it can be—and should be—a pleasure not to know. We should enjoy and revel in our ignorance. Confusion can be delightful, because it opens us up to making wrong decisions, and that allows for more opportunities to make interesting mistakes. Often the worst thing a designer can do is start at the end: This must be a book. This must look like Armin Hofmann. This must be "punchy" or "pop." This must be X. This must be Y.
This then correctly begs the question: "What about deliverables"? "What about what my clients want?" This is the question that contextualizes the design process—this is what gives us a foil to work against in order to serve the needs of the design, the needs of ourselves as makers, and the needs of the client. It is relatively easy (and I believe also extremely valuable) to simply make for the sake of making. However, when we can take these ideas of confusion and use them in to make purposeful outcomes that the design process comes full circle. Ideally we should be able to approach this threshold of delightful confusion in our design process, while applying it what we are making to create things that we want as creators, and our clients want as outcomes. In my own research, how we get to this middle place between purposeful artifact and internalized discovery is an interesting question I am always trying to answer.

Using Color Infrared Imagery to Detect Sooty Mold and Fungal Pathogens of Glasshouse-propagated Plants
Kenneth R. Summy and Christopher R. Little
Fungi are major biotic constraints for optimum production and quality of glasshouse plants. When plants are infested with sooty mold (Capnodium spp.) or infected with pathogens, the reflected wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum are altered. Spectroradiometric measurements and color infrared (CIR) images of control, honeydew-coated, and sooty mold-infested saplings and individual leaves from trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata), sour orange (Citrus aurantium), 'Valencia' orange (C. sinensis), and 'Bo' tree (Ficus religiosa) were obtained. Grapefruit saplings and individual leaves infected with Mycosphaerella citri (greasy spot) were imaged under glasshouse conditions. Similarly, muskmelon foliage showing low and high levels of powdery mildew (Sphaerotheca fuliginea) disease severity were analyzed. When examining individual leaves, all fungal biotic stressors generally resulted in variable spectral reflectance data, especially in the blue (450 nm) and green (550 nm) wavelengths; however, values in the red (650 nm) tended to increase and values in the near-IR (850 nm) tended to decrease with stress. Near-IR/red image ratios were significantly reduced (P < 0.05) in stressed whole plant foliage and individual leaves relative to healthy controls. The accumulation of insect honeydew (which occurs before sooty mold infestation) significantly increased (P < 0.05) near-IR reflectance values and near-IR/red ratios in 'Valencia' orange and near-IR/ratios in 'Bo' tree foliage and individual leaves. Image acquisition and enhancement techniques may prove useful in large-scale production greenhouses where existing infrastructure and high plant populations require high throughput data analysis and identification of biotic stressors.

EFFECTS OF MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE COMPOST AND FERTILIZER RATES ON BROCCOLI
N.E. Roe, S.R. Kostewicz and H.H. Bryan
Several companies and government agencies are now making municipal solid waste (MSW) composts. This study was undertaken to test effects of a MSW compost with different rates of fertilizer on broccoli. Treatments were compost at 0, 6.7, 13.5 and 26.9 MT/ha and fertilizer at 84 and 168 kg/ha N on a, fine sand soil. Treatments were applied, rototilled, and beds formed and covered with black plastic. Broccoli cv. `Southern Comet' transplants were set on March 2 with 46 cm between plants, 2 rows/bed, and beds centered at 1.8 m. Mature heads 15 cm and larger were harvested on April 25. Numbers of heads and total weight of heads were recorded and average head weights were calculated. Data analysis indicated main effect significance for fertilizer rate but not for compost rate with no interactions. The 168 kg/ha level of N resulted in a yield of 5795 kg/ha while the 84 kg/ha level produced 3849 kg/ha. Average head weights were 264, 262, 257, and 252 g; and marketable yield were 5.0, 4.8, 5.0, and 4.5 MT/ha; at 0, 6.7, 13.5, and 26.9 MT/ha, respectively.

NITROGEN RATE AND TIME OF SAMPLING EFFECTS ON SOIL TEST VALUES CF HIGHBUSH BLUEBERRIES GROWN ON A MINERAL SOIL
John R. Clark, Kelly M. Irvin and Richard Maples
Nitrogen rates (using urea) of 22, 67 and 135 kg/ha were applied to mature mulched and unmulched highbush blueberries over a 5 year period. Soil samples were taken each year at budbreak (prior to fertilization) and post-harvest at the suggested time of foliar sampling (approx. Aug.1) to determine N rate effects within and among years. Data analysis revealed that the most common soil test variables affected by N rate and date of sampling were pH, electrical conductivity (EC) and nitrate. For unmulched plants, a significant reduction in soil pH was found each year between budbreak and Aug. 1 for the 67 and 135 kg/ha rates, but not usually for the 22 kg/ha rate. For mulched plants, pH reduction within N rate among sample dates was usually not significant. Overall soil pH reduction was greatest for the 135 kg/ha rate over the 5 years, and the pH reduction for the 67 kg/ha rate was similar to the 135 kg/ha rate for the unmulched plants. For mulched plants, 22 and 67 kg/ha rates had a similar trend of only a slight pH reduction over the 5 years. EC and nitrate trends were very similar, with the highest levels of each on the unmulched plants.

554 Mapping of QTL for Seed Size and Shape Traits in Common Bean
Soon O. Park, Dermot P. Coyne, Geunhwa Jung, Paul W. Skroch, E. Arnaud-Santana and James R. Steadman
Our objective was to identify QTL for seed weight (SW), length, and height segregating in a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population from the cross `PC-50' (Larger SW) × XAN-159 (Smaller SW). The parents and RILs were grown in two separate greenhouse experiments in Nebraska, and in field plots in the Dominican Republic and Wisconsin. Data analysis was done for individual environments separately and on the mean over all environments. A simple linear regression analysis of all data indicated that most QTL appeared to be detected in the mean environment. Composite interval mapping (CIM) analysis was then applied to the means over environments. Eight QTL for SW were detected on common bean linkage groups (LGs) 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. All eight markers associated with these QTL were significant in a multiple regression analysis (MRA), where the full model explained 63% of the variation among SW means. Six QTL for seed length were detected on LGs 2, 3, 4, 8, and 11 using CIM. The markers associated with the three seed length QTL on LGs 2, 8, and 11 were significant in a MRA with the full model explaining 48% of the variation among seed length means. Three QTL for seed height on LGs 4, 6, and 11 explained 36% of the phenotypic variation for trait means. Four of the six QTL for seed length and two of three QTL for seed height also appeared to correspond to QTL for SW.

A Survey of Sweetpotato Growers—Practices and Conditions Associated with Good Root Appearance
Luz Reyes*, Sylvia M. Blankenship*, Jonathan R. Schultheis* and Michael D. Boyette
Sweetpotato roots, especially the cultivar Beauregard, tend to experience epidermal loss during harvest and postharvest handling which results in a less attractive product in the market. A survey study was conducted among North Carolina (N.C.) sweetpotato growers in Fall 2001 and 2002. The purpose of the survey was to gather information and try to correlate cultural practices, growing conditions and site characteristics with the occurrence of attractive roots and to define new scientific approaches to reducing epidermal loss. Samples were obtained from 42 N.C. farms. Survey field information and laboratory results were correlated to identify possible factors affecting the appearance of the roots. 1300 roots were used to measure skin adhesion, peeling susceptibility, skin moisture, skin anthocyanin and lignin content. From survey questions, 50 characteristics were defined for each sample, according to field characteristics, cultivar information, cultural practices and harvest and postharvest practices. Statistical analyses were performed to determine the relationship between the skin characteristics analyzed at the laboratory, and the survey descriptors information. Analysis of variance was used for laboratory data analysis. Person correlations were made between survey variables and laboratory characteristics. Several possible relationships between root appearance and other characteristics/practices were identified. Root skin adhesion may improve in later generations from elite propagation material. Early application of phosphate and potash fertilizers were correlated to improved root skin adhesion. There appeared to be a relationship between soil moisture at harvest time, increased lignin content in the skin and peeling susceptibility. Future areas of study were identified.

Preemergent Weed Control in Container-grown Herbaceous Perennials
James E. Klett, David Hillock and David Staats
Herbicides were applied to container-grown herbaceous perennials and evaluated on the basis of weed control, phytotoxicity, and effect on plant growth. During the 1995 season six preemergent herbicides [(in kg·ha–1) Napropamide (Devrinol 10G), 4.5 and 9.1; Isoxaben (Gallery 75DF), 1.1 and 2.3; Oxadiazon (Ronstar 2G), 4.5 and 9.1; Oxyfluorfen + Oryzalin (Rout 3G), 3.4 and 13.6; Oryzalin (Surflan AS), 2.8 and 4.5; and Trifluralin (Treflan 5G) 4.5 and 9.1, were tested on Callirhoe involucrata, Delosperma nubigenum, Dendranthemum ×morifolium `Jennifer', Festuca cinerea `Sea Urchin', and Gypsophila paniculata `Fairy's Pink'. Isoxaben (both rates) resulted in visual phytotoxicity symptoms and sometimes death to Dendranthemum. Oxadiazon (9.1 kg·ha–1) and Oxyfluorfen + Oryzalin (both rates) resulted in plant chlorosis and necrosis to Delosperma soon after herbicide application, but plants outgrew herbicide damage. Napropamide (both rates), applied to Delosperma, resulted in less dry weight when compared to some of the other herbicide treatments. Oryzalin (4.5 kg·ha–1) resulted in visual phytotoxicity and less plant dry weight to Festuca. Data analysis revealed no significant differences in Callirhoe and Gypsophila. In general, most herbicides controlled weeds effectively.
Effect of Fertigation Strategy on Nitrogen Availability and Nitrate Leaching using Microirrigation
Blaine R. Hanson, Jan Hopmans and Jirka Simunek
Injection during the middle one-third or the middle one-half of the irrigation is recommended for fertigation using microirrigation. However, short fertigation events are commonly used by growers. This project investigated the effect of fertigation practices on nitrate availability and leaching. The first phase of the project (completed) determined nitrate distributions in the root zone for four microirrigation systems, three soil types, and five fertigation strategies using the HYDRUS-2D computer simulation model. Fertigation strategies included injecting for short time periods at the beginning, middle, and end of the irrigation cycle, respectively; injecting during the middle 50% of the irrigation cycle, and continuous injection. The second phase (ongoing) is investigating the distribution of nitrate, ammonium, urea, phosphate, and potassium around the drip line for selected Phase 1 scenarios. Phase 1 results showed less nitrate leached from the root zone for a 2-h injection time at the end of a long irrigation event compared to injection at the beginning and middle of a long irrigation event for surface drip irrigation. A more continuous fertigation resulted in a more uniform distribution of nitrate in the soil. The results were less conclusive for subsurface drip lines, due to upward movement of nitrate above the drip line. Little difference in nitrate leaching occurred for short irrigation events, regardless of fertigation strategy. Data analysis of the Phase 2 modeling is under way. The HYDRUS-2D model included partition coefficients for ammonium, phosphate, and potassium, and parameters for hydrolysis (conversion of urea to ammonium), nitrification, and denitrification.

Missing man's overseas mates help cops
Picking over wreck: Police recover John Beckenridge's wrecked car near Curio Bay
Overseas associates of missing Queenstowner John Beckenridge, who abducted his 11-year-old stepson last year, are working with New Zealand police to track the pair down.
Swedish-born helicopter pilot Beckenridge broke a court order on March 13 last year by picking up Mike Zhao-Beckenridge from his new Invercargill school.
The pair, who by all reports enjoyed a close relationship, camped at various places in the Catlins before Beckenridge's dark-blue 4WD Volkswagen Touareg went off a 90m cliff near Curio Bay a week later.
It took police six weeks to recover the battered wreck from the treacherous waters and there was no sign of any bodies.
On the one year anniversary of their disappearance, police said there was no evidence of the pair leaving the Catlins area.
Top chopper pilot: John Beckenridge
Many locals, and friends and neighbours of Beckenridge, believe he staged their deaths and they are now hiding either in NZ or overseas.
But there have been no reported sightings since they were seen at the Tokanui garage on March 17.
Detective Senior Sergeant Stu Harvey has told the Herald the police inquiry is still live.
He confirmed that "associates of Beckenridge who live overseas" were now helping police with the case.
But he refuses to say who they are or how they are helping.
Border alerts remain in place at NZ ports, while Interpol is still helping NZ investigators.
In March, Harvey said there had been a "major time lapse" in getting information back from overseas agencies.
Nine months on, police are still waiting.
"We are still waiting for some overseas enquiries to come back," Harvey says.
Police are treating it as a missing persons case.
Mike's mother, Fiona Lu, has repeatedly declined to comment publicly.
Harvey said earlier this year she had been frustrated at the lack of concrete leads for police.
Over the past year, police have received multiple sightings of the pair reported to them by members of the public across NZ, including Southland and Canterbury.
However, the potential leads never amounted to anything.
Missing: Mike Zhao-Beckenridge
The police file has not yet been passed over to the coroner.
"Once all enquiries are concluded, the file will be reviewed and a decision will be made on the next step in the process," Harvey says.
He earlier said police were "keeping an open mind to what's actually happened to them".
"We've spoken to a lot of people, and a lot of friends, associates of John Beckenridge," Harvey said in March.
"There has been no information at this stage that we have that would suggest that … somebody is helping them."
Beckenridge, who was living in an upmarket Queenstown estate before disappearing, was well-known in Papua New Guinea flying circles.
Pilots recall an experienced, talented and popular commercial pilot, who also flew in Afghanistan and is believed to have several aliases, including John Locke, John Robert Lundh, Knut Goran Roland Lundh and John Bradford.
Pacific Helicopters PNG head Mal Smith, his former boss who has been interviewed by NZ police, says he knew Beckenridge had been having "problems getting access to his kid but we didn't know it was to that extreme".
Aviation expert Peter Clark has said it would be "improbable but not impossible" to flee NZ by helicopter.

Austin Tichenor of the Reduced Shakespeare Company asks what it means to be a Shakespeare purist and attempts to interpret audience reactions.
From the question "What are you?" (Countess Olivia) to "Tell my story" (Hamlet), Austin Tichenor looks at finding your identity and telling your story, through a decidedly Shakespearean lens.
Austin Tichenor suggests that "Twelfth Night" is the "Hamlet" of the comedies, dealing with loss, separation, and death and using some surprisingly similar elements — but in a far happier way.
Austin Tichenor writes about the theater-going experience in Shakespeare's time and how that contrasts with audience expectations today.
Austin Tichenor of the Reduced Shakespeare Company writes about the creation of William Shakespeare's Long Lost First Play (abridged).
Austin Tichenor writes about Shakespeare's history plays, the political considerations of the day, and patriotic portrayals centuries later.
What kind of father was Shakespeare? The fathers he portrays in his plays don't always come off looking so good, but he also explores parental regret.

March 3, 1807: Thomas Jefferson Signs Insurrection Act Into Law
Time Periods: Early 19th Century: 1800 - 1849
Themes: Labor, Laws & Citizen Rights, Slavery and Resistance, Social Class
On March 3, 1807, President Thomas Jefferson put his signature on the law known as the Insurrection Act.
Here is the original language of the Act signed by Jefferson:
An Act authorizing the employment of the land and naval forces of the United States, in cases of insurrections
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That in all cases of insurrection, or obstruction to the laws, either of the United States, or of any individual state or territory, where it is lawful for the President of the United States to call forth the militia for the purpose of suppressing such insurrection, or of causing the laws to be duly executed, it shall be lawful for him to employ, for the same purposes, such part of the land or naval force of the United States, as shall be judged necessary, having first observed all the pre-requisites of the law in that respect.
APPROVED, March 3, 1807.
In the 19th century, it was called upon when the United States wanted to suppress American Indian sovereignty. The law was also the legal basis for the Civil War, as it gave Abraham Lincoln powers to send federal troops into Southern states.
With a few exceptions, the law has historically been used to make a federal military response to labor disputes or anti-racism protests.
Andrew Jackson used the law to put down Nat Turner's Rebellion and to put down a revolt by C&O Canal laborers in Maryland.
Ulysses S. Grant used the law at least three times during Reconstruction to respond to violent racist rioting by the Klan and other white supremacists. Grover Cleveland cited it to respond to the Pullman Strike in 1894 and Woodrow Wilson used the power to send troops to the 1914 Colorado Coalfield War.
Eisenhower and Kennedy called on the Act to enforce desegregation and defend against white aggression. Johnson used the act to quell uprisings in April 1968, in Chicago, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. George H. W. Bush used the Act to send troops to Los Angeles during the 1992 Rodney King protests.

Home thieves stole from the wrong guy
Fair warning to the thieves who stole John Pielechaty's fibreglass DQ cone out of his Mississauga Valleys backyard — you messed with the wrong person.
Pielechaty is a retired RCMP detective — and he's so hot under the collar with what went down, he's on your trail.
"It ticks me off," says Pielechaty, who spent 27 years with the RCMP before taking early retirement in 1987 with the rank of staff sergeant. Pielechaty vows to do whatever it takes to get his cone back.
For the past month or so, his usually-quiet neighbourhood has been hit by a rash of pool hopping. Most of the homeowners have lived there for some 40 years, going back to a time when the area was primarily apple orchards. Normally, they would laugh off such incidents as just antics by spirited, perhaps inebriated, young people. But not this time — not when they made off with Pielechaty's property, a six-foot tall ice cream cone he used for promotional purposes when he owned a Dairy Queen. The mascot came with holes for arms and legs.
"Stealing is a crime. I feel violated," says Pielechaty, 72.
It started on Aug. 2 when Bob Smith, who lives behind the Pielechatys, found a large group of people frolicking in their adjoining pools (the two long-time neighbours share a gate).
"It was around 2:30 in the morning," Smith recalls, "and all these young men and women — I guessed they were in their late teens and early 20s — were in the two pools and throwing stuff around. They were wearing only their underwear."
They fled when Smith, a former captain with the Toronto fire department, appeared. Still very fit, Smith gave chase and managed to grab one of them. Two of his pals came along quietly.
By then Pielechaty and his wife, Anne, were roused.
"We weren't asleep at the time, but with the TV and the air conditioning going, we didn't hear a thing until one of our neighbours called," says Anne.
Amazingly, the three partiers gave their names and addresses to Smith and Pielechaty.
Fast forward to Aug. 13, when past midnight Smith glanced out his front window and spied a young female standing below a street light. "She looked like she was nude," he says. Sure enough, when he looked in his backyard, there were people in his pool, again. "I went after them but I wasn't going to catch a 20-year-old," he says.
The final straw came Monday morning when Pielechaty discovered his front gate open — and his cone gone. Alerted by a neighbour, he found the bottom half up the street. "They probably didn't have room in the vehicle for the whole cone," he surmises.
Pielechaty bought the cone when he owned a DQ franchise, first in Thorncliffe Park in Toronto and later in Mississauga, following his retirement from the Mounties. He kept the cone when he sold the business 10 years ago. He took it out of storage recently when he heard that an old DQ friend was opening an outlet in Fergus.
"I was planning to give it to him as a gift," says Pielechaty. "I'd already given it a power wash and was just finishing a bit of painting around the eyes when the thing was stolen.
"Pielechaty reported the theft to police and later posted notices, complete with a picture of the stolen item, around the neighbourhood. He's prepared to forgive and forget if the miscreants return the mascot. If not, he just might decide to do some sleuthing himself, drawing from his many years as a narcotics officer.

Massively-Multi Player Online Tactical Wargames?
When is the tactical gaming world going to get a truly inspirational massively multi-player online (MMO) gaming experience?
Didn't someone try that?
World War II Online (WWIIOL) seemed more like a crass attempt to cash in on the RPG craze by allowing grog-geeks to live out their fantasies in first person combat rather than attemping to model the Second World War in anything like realistic terms. Other games have followed on a smaller scale, such as Operation Flashpoint and Red Orchestra - and the concept works when you can mold squads of men willing to put in the effort and the discipline and the training to do what real soldiers do - dedicate themselves to learning standards of conduct and subordinate themselves to the good of the team. But to expect 30,000 "team players" to do the same is ludicrous.
A Better Idea
Battlefront.com and Hunting Tank Software have agreed to join forces and provide something unique - well, not totally unique, as Muzzle Velocity did this about 8 years ago or so: provide an operational level layer to a tactical 3D game, in this case, their venerable old title Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin. They've been at it for at least 8 years, according to their website. A look at the screenshots isn't promising; the interface is reminiscent of Soldiers at War, the old SSI clunker which uses a 3/4 view in 3D instead of a standard map and NATO symbols with which to command regiments, battalions and companies around hundreds of square kilometres of real world terrain, generating battles resolved in Combat Mission. Not a horrible idea, but there will be no front lines, just blocks of kilometre-square tiles held by opposing forces, no view of the actual terrain from the operational map, and apparently a host of other problems that keep delaying this program further and further.
Isn't it time for a truly unique MMO? Why not find a developer out there who will marry up their tactical game to a true operational level online environment that will do this:
map an entire theatre with an interface to an existing global data package - some data has changed since the war, but so what - tweak the major changes like Berlin, Stalingrad or the Normandy coastline and accept the others as acceptable
allow players to sign on as battalion commanders of anonymous line infantry battalions - no elite panzers, paratroopers, paramarines or SS; 95% of the war was fought by units no more distinguished than the plain old "leg" infantry
give them real world missions - no "quests", no start-overs, and if you die, you die. And recognize that players have real lives. Have the front progress at a rate of one day every week; you get 7 days to play out the missions of your infantry companies along the front for those 24 hours - perhaps you'll get a battalion attack; perhaps you'll have a defend in place, maybe one company will send out a fighting patrol. Every attack you make effects the battle line and the games of those around you - all the other players signed in will be fighting on your flanks against the same AI generated enemy. Have different worlds for different nationalities - one for Axis, one for Allied, with enough interest, branch out into theatres - Italy, Russia, Western Front, or even different battles, and run them simultaneously - Normandy, Breakout, Brittany, Market-Garden, Scheldt, Bulge, Rhineland, etc. And if there are guys who can do a battle a day, have a "fast" world that moves a battle a day and a "slow" world. Turn them over, start them again, keep them going. There's money to be made. Offer "private" worlds, with human vs. human play. And if the humans don't make a deadline - auto resolve the battle and let them come back for the next one.
Instead of phony rank and medal systems that signify nothing, keep a personnel file with accomplishment listings; Successful Passage of Lines, Successful Water Crossing, Successful Fighting Patrol, Successful Combined Arms Assault. Let the player ticket punch like a career officer rather than collect phony medals. Count kill ratios and track which weapons systems kill which units - arguably, the best commander will actually let his artillery kill the enemy and will lose the least men while gaining the most objectives.
Actually, why not permit "quests"? Some of the fun involved in "meta-campaigns" that were crafted for Combat Mission - manual campaign systems run as, essentially, MMOs - involved such special missions as fighting for downed aircraft containing staff officers bearing operations orders, or such things. These types of missions actually happened in real life and could spice up an MMO quite nicely. They were fun in a meta-campaign setting.
If nothing else, the success of manually-run "meta-campaigns" have proven the concept of an MMO works. And they were run for free.
It was simple, as far as Combat Mission went. A group of players went out and researched a real life battle, and found real world geographical data - the above map came from the fighting around Lauban in early 1945, courtesy Stefan Korshak. The group sussed out the orders of battle involved in game terms and banged out the maps, a portion of which, in CM terms, are shown below:
Like all meta-campaigns, the rules had to be agreed on and administered by mutual agreement and the campaign was labour intensive. But the concept was valid and proved it could be done. A couple dozen players rotated in and out of the game as real life intervened - and no money changed hands, nothing was automated.
My final word
With a profit incentive, and given the popularity of such games as World of Warcraft, Lord of the Rings Online and others in the fantasy genre, it would be interesting to see if a true operational level game married up with a tactical level game couldn't prove as lucrative for a developer enterprising enough to try and make it a reality. Certainly, for those stalwart few who have meta-campaigned their way through a few CM games, the interest has been there.

The worst job interview process I ever had was about 8 years ago for a large consulting firm. They invited me in for 5 separate interviews with progressively more senior people. In what turned out to be the final interview, the interviewer – who wasn't a terribly likable fellow – deliberately stopped about half way and said "As things stand you haven't done enough for me to offer you a job and so you have another 20 minutes to change my mind".
Needless to say I was somewhat flustered by his rather blunt approach and didn't handle it very well, partly as I was trying to pretend to be what I thought they wanted rather than just to be myself. Of course I soon realised afterwards it was a test to see how I perform under pressure. Anyway, in the end I didn't get the job and the main feedback was a) I didn't appear to want it enough and b) I hadn't demonstrated how I would fit within their organisation. Of course he was right on both counts and it was a good, if somewhat unpleasant lesson.
When I graduated, the main career options for someone like me with a degree in physics was either to become an academic or go and work in financial services, neither of which particularly appealed to me. Whilst I liked the idea of becoming an entrepreneur I didn't know anybody who had done it and I didn't really think I had a good enough idea of what to do or how to do it. And so didn't really consider it seriously.
Instead, I started on a fairly eclectic set of career choices to find something I liked and was good at. My choices were quite simply a combination of aiming to do stuff that I thought would be interesting, where I thought I could learn something, and where my boss and colleagues seemed like good people.
And so I went on to do a completely different job every couple of years including working as a music producer, book publisher, research scientist, IT project manager, and then policy maker – all broadly around the theme of innovation. I certainly learnt a lot, built up a wide range of contacts in very different industries, and got a kick out of trying to master a new role every few years. But it was also getting progressively more difficult to jump ship as the roles I was going for, such as the consultancy job, wanted somebody with a more clearly defined career path and set of skills. Also I quickly got bored and increasingly frustrated to have to work for other people, who were somewhat trapped themselves. Part of my way of dealing with it was to compartmentalise my work and non-work life, and the lowest point was probably concluding that work was just something I had to do to make a living, rather than something I'd actually enjoy.
It did mean that I stopped applying for jobs which I knew deep down I would probably not enjoy, and rather started reading lots of books, building and consolidating my personal network through having lots of coffee's with interesting people, which enabled me to form and start to share my own opinions. This enabled me finally, in 2006, about a year after that interview, to be offered and accept a job at Nesta where I started leading a new programme of work on open innovation which was the making of me in many ways career wise. It allowed me to pull together the many varied strands of my career up until that point, together with the autonomy and ability to explore and experiment, and it remains the foundations of what we do now at 100%Open, for which I am extremely grateful.
It was through my time at Nesta that I finally found the courage and the opportunity, at the age of 35, to start my own business, 100%Open, together with my business partner David. We are now nearly three years into it, and whilst it's not without it's own challenges, I wouldn't have it any other way and I'm slightly astonished that it took me so long to get to this point.
In many ways I think we are all entrepreneurs now, whether we run our own venture or work within a larger organisation. And it seems that many more people are embracing it at all ages, of course partly through necessity but also through choice. And so I'd love to hear about other people's worst interviews and eclectic career paths and what it lead to.
I don't have any regrets at all about the career choices I've made (or perhaps didn't make), but I do wonder why I didn't do this 10 years ago when I had much less to lose and more time to experiment. Whilst it isn't always easy and I am undoubtedly working harder than I ever have, it's deeply rewarding in so many ways. So even if it took a little while I guess it is, as they say, better late than never.
Innovation takes a great deal of experimentation and we all work in different ways and at different paces. So while you might wonder why you didn't make the decision to change course 10 years earlier, you probably needed the time to just soak-up some experience first.
Cheers Tim – Like a fine wine, we get better with age perhaps 😉 having said that I'm pretty sure that if I'd waited another 10 or even another 5 years I wouldn't have made the jump voluntarily. But hey, it's all speculation.
I too had an eclectic career path before settling in innovation. In some ways, a restless interest in the new and varied marks you out for the role I think.
I replied, "I'm doing it now" and left the room.
Suffice to say, I didn't get the job.
Hey Dan. Great story. Kudos for walking out. Reminds me of an story I heard years ago (not sure if it's true) that when somebody was asked in their final year Philosophy exam upon which their whole 3 years of study depended, "What is courage?" simply wrote "This is." and similarly walked out.
Anyway, I sometimes joke that innovation isn't a career path, rather an affliction. The final resting place of the insatiably curious perhaps.
Holding on to any encouragement that floats. I'm about to be made redundant and have started eezap.com. My wife is going to love the fact that it's going to take a few years to fly!
You think you left it late?! I think that there's no right age for this, but maturity largely consists of knowing a good thing when you see it and going for it. I've always felt that there was an entrepreneur in me somewhere but needed 3 things to get things started: A client, a point of difference and an inspiring partner. At Nesta I found all three!

John Gayle (* 11. September 1792 in Sumter, South Carolina; † 21. Juli 1859 in Mobile, Alabama) war ein US-amerikanischer Jurist und Politiker (Demokratische Partei). Er gehörte als Vertreter Alabamas dem US-Repräsentantenhaus an und war der siebte Gouverneur dieses Bundesstaates.

Frühe Jahre und politischer Aufstieg
John Gayle, Sohn von Matthew und Mary Gayle, besuchte die Newberry Academy und graduierte 1813 am South Carolina College. Im gleichen Jahr zog er in das Monroe County im Alabama-Territorium, studierte Jura und erhielt 1818 seine Zulassung als Anwalt. Danach eröffnete er eine eigene Kanzlei in Mobile. Gayle entschloss sich 1817, eine politische Laufbahn einzuschlagen. Zu dieser Zeit wurde er Mitglied des Alabama Territorial Council. Anschließend wurde er 1819 zum Solicitor des ersten Gerichtsbezirks von Alabama gewählt. Später war er auch Mitglied des Repräsentantenhauses von Alabama zwischen 1822 und 1823. Dort vertrat er das Monroe County. Anschließend wurde er 1823 Richter im 3. Gerichtsbezirk. Diese Tätigkeit übte er dann bis 1828 aus, als er an den Alabama Supreme Court berufen wurde. Er legte jedoch ein Jahr später das Amt nieder, um den Sitz im Parlament von Alabama anzutreten, wo er bis 1831 Speaker war. Er repräsentierte das Greene County.

Gouverneur von Alabama
Bei den Wahlen von 1831 für das Amt des Gouverneurs von Alabama trat er als Gegner der Nichtigerklärung hervor, ein vorrangiger Kernpunkt bei der Wahl. Daraufhin wurde er am 1. August 1831 zum Gouverneur gewählt, wobei er sich mit 55:31 Prozent gegen den Nationalrepublikaner Nicholas Davis durchsetzte. Seine Vereidigung fand am 26. November 1831 statt. Während seiner Amtszeit wurden neun neue Countys geschaffen, die erste Eisenbahnlinie wurde fertiggestellt, die Staatsbank wurde vergrößert und das Parlament gründete die erste Baumwollfabrik. 1832 wurde der Vertrag von Cusseta unterzeichnet, der den Creek-Indianern neues Land westlich des Mississippi verschaffte. Es kam jedoch zu Gewaltausbrüchen, als Bundesmarshals versuchten, die weißen Siedler vom Indianerland zu entfernen. Gayle machte nochmals deutlich, dass die Räumung durchgeführt werde und der Staat Vorrang bezüglich der Übertragung von Land in seinem Territorium habe. Während dieser Auseinandersetzung gewann Gayle die Wiederwahl ohne Gegenkandidaten. Er trat seine zweite Amtszeit an und behielt den Posten bis zum 21. November 1835.

Kongressabgeordneter und Bundesrichter
Nachdem er sein Amt niedergelegt hatte, fungierte Gayle 1836 und 1840 als Mitglied des Electoral College bei den Präsidentschaftswahlen. Zwischen 1847 und 1849 saß er für den ersten Wahlbezirk von Alabama im Kongress. Anschließend war er von 1849 bis 1859 als Richter am Bundesbezirksgericht für Alabama tätig. Er verstarb am 21. Juli 1859 und wurde auf dem Magnolia Cemetery in Mobile beigesetzt. Gayle war zwei Mal verheiratet und zwar mit Sarah Ann Haynsworth und Clarissa Stedman Peck. Das Ergebnis dieser Verbindungen waren zehn Kinder.

French President Francois Hollande believes that the settlement of the Karabakh conflict should be based on the principles of non-use of force, respect for the territorial integrity of states and the right to self-determination.
According to the press service of the Armenian President, at the official dinner given in honor of the Armenian leader Serzh Sargsyan in Paris, F. Hollande stated that in order to build a peaceful and secure future it is necessary to continue efforts to settle the Karabakh problem.
"Nothing can be worse than the status quo. For more than 23 years, the parties have been negotiating without certain results" F. Hollande said.
According to him, the solution has seemed close many times.
"In 2014, I took the initiative and invited you along with my Azerbaijani counterpart to Paris. We recorded progress on the fate of missing persons during the conflict, but could not move forward" F. Hollande noted.
"However, there is no alternative to the continuation of negotiations, if we all agree that a military solution to the conflict is out of the question. The terms of the settlement are known – the Madrid Principles, which are based on the principles of non-use of force, respect for the territorial integrity of states and the right to self-determination. France is ready to contribute to any initiatives in this direction" the French president emphasized.

GUEST REVIEW 2
…And Justice For All, by Metallica
Reviewed by Stuart Taylor
So…. I quite like metal. From funeral doom to hair metal. From slaying mighty dragons to pretending that we're all pirates. From heavy progressive elements to a savage beatdown. One day I'd really like to go to Wacken. In full plate mail with a viking drinking horn…
And Metallica have actually got a special place in my heart. "Orion" was the first song that I learnt on the bass. "Nothing Else Matters" was the first song that I learnt on the guitar. I literally shut myself in a room until I had it down. And yet I've heard little of them outside of the legendary Cliff Burton era, so I'm going in pretty blind. And excited.
But this is a shoe in, right?
The first mistake I made was to listen to the original album version. It sounds like it MIGHT be a good album, but it's hard to tell because the it sounds like the album was mixed down and then piped through a pair of tin cans attached by string. While that could be written off as a charming quirk of the more thrashy end of the genre, I find it off putting, so I search for a remastered version, which fortunately there is.
So I settle down to what I vaguely expected it to be. Aggressive guitars metal galloping across a field of shredding solos that somehow manage to keep just this side of tasteful. Its clear that Hetfield can sing, but I find the vocals poor in all honesty. Fortunately, they need to do little other than frame the beatdown happening elsewhere, which they do admirably.
My second mistake was to try to listen with fresh ears. Even the chunkiest riffs that would have excited the 14 year old me feel dated and the solos can sometimes just flip over from cool metal awesomeness into Spinal Tap territory. The only thing to break the onslaught is the occasional tempo change blistering in from leftfield and the standout track 'One'.
… And Justice For All is an ironic title, the whole album is lyrically very dark and seems to be a cry against a system that has the power to abuse and manipulate justice in order to achieve its aims. Its not a rally call, in so much as a sneer at people who would like to claim justice, but actually are its enemy. And so it seems to have captured some of the Zeitgeist of the current political and social climate in spite of its age.
I give …And Justice For All a 6/10. As genre defining and influential it was for the time, its hard to take it quite as seriously these days which probably is a reflection on me more than the music. It's a good album and good start point to jump off into MEEEEETTTTTTAAAL but doesn't really scratch the itch when I need something very, very….. very heavy in my life.

List it: You have till the end of September 2012 to scan/ photograph everything you'd like to swap (might be a good idea to break it up into separate posts as all that scanning can get tedious after a while) and post it on your blog (if you have one) or as a Flickr/ Picassa set or Thinglink image.
Make it accessible: If you're on Flick/ ThinkLink/ Picassa or any other image hosting site, check that you've set viewing access to be public so that everyone can see your swapfest goodies.
Claim it: A lot of people have expressed concerns about dibsies, so as of today there is is no official deadline for dibsies, if you like something, leave a comment/ send a message/ tweet/ email stating what you like with a link to the post/ picture set of stuff you've listed for swap so your swapee can choose something for themselves (and decide whether they want to swap).
Tag it: If something from your list has been spoken for, edit your post/ listing to mark it as taken (or delete it from the listing) so that you don't get multiple dibs on the same item.
Mail it: It would be great to have things decided on and mailed by the end of October so recipients receive them early to mid November (which leaves everyone free for focusing solely on holiday/ family/ shopping stresses without having to worry about swaps etc).
Keep it social: Send your swap partner a quick email or blog comment as soon as you receive your parcel. Not only is this the polite (read, humane) thing to do, it's great for senders to know that the goodies have arrived safely and aren't languishing unclaimed in a customs hold up somewhere.
Once you've decided what you want and what you're ready to swap for it, contact the person you want to swap with and let them know what you'd like to swap for/ with. Then put everything together and add an awesome (funny, weird, crazy) postcard to the parcel and hit send make the pilgrimage to the post office and be forced to interact with other human beings in real life.
If you are interested, please leave a comment and let me know what you have to swap and we can do a deal!!
Hiya! I'd love to swap something for your Vogue 5782. My list of patterns are over here: http://poppethillroad.blogspot.com.au/2012/09/patterns-and-postcards.html let me know if anything takes your fancy! Thanks!
Hi there. Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog! I've put aside Simplicity 7626 for you – can you email me your address and I'll pop it in the mail this week. (My email is macska at gmail dot com.) :-)I'm interested in the Burda magazine or McCalls 3577 – whichever you're keen to swap.


Among the key principles guiding these discussions are improved border security, tougher enforcement of laws against hiring undocumented workers, a streamlined legal immigration process, creation of an earned path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants who wish to stay in the United States and revamped temporary foreign worker programs.
The horse racing industry relies heavily on foreign help, especially those workers employed by trainers and horse farms through various temporary worker programs. The Department of Labor (DOL) has targeted the H-2B visa program with tough new rules that could negatively impact horse racing and breeding.
The NTRA looks out for our industry on immigration matters. We will be closely monitoring any developments in this area to ensure fair treatment of affected employers and employees.

John and Sal's Bio
John Carter Full Bio
John Carter Albums
John Carter Left hometown of Birmingham for London in early Sixties with school-friend and writing partner Ken Lewis. Signed a songwriter deal with Peer Music (formerly Southern Music) in Denmark Street. While writing they also did many broadcasts for the BBC ("Easy Beat", etc.), when they formed Carter-Lewis and the Southerners. The group included at one time or another Jimmy Paige and Viv Prince. Their first hit as writers was "Will I What?" by Mike Sarne, followed by "Can't You Hear My Heartbeat" by Herman's Hermits, which went to No. 1 in the USA.
In the mid-Sixties John and Ken concentrated on providing vocal backing for other artists, and appeared on hits such as "Can't Explain" (The Who), "It's Not Unusual" (Tom Jones), "Out Of Time" (Chris Farlowe). This lead to their forming their second group, The Ivy League, with the addition of Perry Ford, and had three major hits in the UK with "Funny How Love Can Be", "Tossing and Turning" and "That's Why I'm Crying". This lead to extensive touring for a year and a half, when John decided to leave in order to concentrate on writing and recording.
 John met up with writer Geoff Stephens, who asked him to demo a song Geoff had written, "Winchester Cathedral". John then did the lead vocal on the finished record, which reached No. 1 on the American charts. About the same time, a joint composition by John and Ken Lewis, "Little Bit o' Soul", recorded by the Music Explosion, also went to No. 1 in the States. John and Geoff Stephens continued writing together, with hits such as "Semi-detached Suburban Mr James" for Manfred Mann, "My Sentimental Friend" and "Sunshine Girl" for Herman's Hermits, and "Knock, Knock, Who's There?" for Mary Hopkin.
After Ken retired from the Ivy League and the music business in general, John asked his wife, Gill, to write lyrics for his songs. This resulted in a big hit in Europe by Kincade called "Dreams Are Ten A Penny". John and Gill also wrote "Beach Baby" by First Class (produced by John), which went Top 5 in the States.

Hailing from Falmouth, Cornwall, four-piece LIPS have a talent for creating jangle-pop perfection, and their most recent single 'Walls' is certainly no exception.
As soon as you hit play on 'Walls', you can feel the raw energy that they're trying to convey through their music. The shimmering vocals of Rachel Anstis are surrounded by shadowy guitars and percussion, and the final result is astonishing. There's an aura of nostalgia weaved through 'Walls', and this compliments the shoegaze energy of the track.
LIPS' previous releases 'Apartment' and 'Heart Fixer' have provided an excellent introduction to their sound, and 'Walls' is a delightful addition to their growing catalogue of tracks.

Salafism must be engaged with respect and courage
The Arab world's cultural challenge
To many, the Arab world is just a place of conflict and lack of democracy. But what is really at play are ever-changing, tacit alliances between three unequal forces: Islamists, secular intellectuals and the regimes themselves
by Hicham Ben Abdallah El Alaoui
For the last two centuries, the ulema (Islamic scholars) have always been suspicious of modern forms of cultural production and expression, which carve out spaces that engage social subjects in ways of understanding their lives and their world that are implicitly autonomous from religion. For the most part, whatever the ulema said, artistic and cultural practices have operated in a sphere that constituted a continuum, even if certain activities (modern art and painting) were more westernised and consumed mainly in effendi (westernised bourgeois) ghettos.
Underlying this wary tolerance was a theological mode of thought (kalam) in which religion encompasses more than sharia: it accommodates a pluralist notion of society as a vast ensemble where culture develops alongside religion. In this conception, a wide array of profane literary and artistic activity (poetry, calligraphy, plastic arts, music) can be understood as being in continuity with religion. In this way, diversity and creativity have remained an integral and treasured part of our history.
Part of the grandeur of Islam was its ability to absorb a myriad of cultural influences. The Muslim world protected, studied and developed the great traditions of classical literature and philosophy. It was not a place for burning books, but for building libraries to preserve them. It was, for some time, the guardian of the founding documents of what became known as "western civilisation". It understood that these were a part of the intellectual legacy of all mankind.
With the rise of Islamist movements, however, a new public norm took root, often characterised as Salafist, since it is based on a narrow version of a "return" to religious orthodoxy. This new social norm is, for the most part, implicit – an unofficial ethos or ideology, only rarely enforced by legal or administrative sanction. But it is even more powerful as a result. The authority and centrality of the new Salafist norm (...)

London-based singer-songwriter Douglas Dare releases new EP, following on from his debut album Whelm. Named after album track Caroline and new track If I Knew I Were Alive, it also features remixes by fellow label mate Ryan Lee West aka Rival Consoles and Houndstooth's own electronic producer Ross Tones aka Throwing Snow.
Caroline has always been a precious track for Douglas, one of the first tracks he recorded and a story in which he imagines his grandfather is writing to a loved one during the war. As the only song on his debut album that is stripped down to just his voice and piano playing, and it being a favourite amongst fans at his concerts, it was a natural choice as a first single.
The new track If I Knew I Were Alive Douglas wrote by creating beats, looping them and recording parts live. Dancing around to the beats in his room, he started singing melodies and coming up with ideas that he wouldn't usually have, sitting at the piano. The idea that we can do a lot more if only we appreciated our own ability and opportunity encouraged Douglas to not take the track to anyone else to re-record it, but to work with what he had created himself.
"The recording has this demo quality, which I really enjoy. I love how revealing a demo can be. It seems to expose the fundamental ideas the songwriter had and the basic quality of the recording is very revealing. One of my favourite records is PJ Harvey's '4 Track Demos', where the songs are so stripped back that you can appreciate the finest details." – Douglas Dare


Did you know that if you have commercial health insurance, and you try to go to an in-network hospital facility to have a surgical procedure they will not allow you to bypass using your insurance and pay cash. Hospitals are contractually bound to insurance companies leaving them unable to release their rates for procedures. These contracts also prevent them from being able to accept cash from an in-network commercial health insurance carrier.
Most people are unaware of what a surgical procedure would cost if they were to pay cash. Have you ever tried to look up the cost of a surgical procedure and were unsuccessful? Even if you were able to find the cost of the procedure, you typically find a wide range of cost, and the cost is inconclusive in that it doesn't account for incurred operating room expenses. Imagine you have carpal tunnel syndrome and your deductible is $6,000.00. The bundled cash price for a carpal tunnel release at our facility is $2,550.00 including all incurred expenses for the procedure. If you were to go to a hospital for this procedure, you would most likely end up paying at least double that price.
We understand that part of that price you're paying is for the comfort of care you will receive. That is why we are committed to taking the best care of our patients. Being such a small facility, we are able to treat our patients like family. Lone Star Surgery Center is not contracted with any insurance providers, we make our contracts directly with you, the patient. Our goal is to provide equivalent or better care at a transparent price, which are available to any patients who would prefer to pay out of pocket.

Try, try, try … again
By Jan Gottesman MANAGING EDITOR
Nov 5, 2010 at 12:01 AM Nov 9, 2010 at 10:52 AM
There is a childhood game called �Telephone.� You start by whispering something to someone, who passes the message along. By the end, the message is so distorted, it is funny.
Maybe it teaches you to �try, try again.� Maybe it is just fun.
It is a game that Paul Cherubini found himself engaged in � for real � recently.
For his efforts in getting a routine job done, but only after several sessions of the childhood game, Telephone, Cherubini was given a �Sixth-place Light Up the Night� award from his Dunn and Co. co-workers.
Cherubini started out by trying to get the utility company to move a floodlight over the Green Street parking lot.
The company used to use a parking lot of a neighboring business. Now that the company�s own lot is paved, the neighboring lot is not being used.
So Cherubini called and asked that one of two floodlights on a telephone pole be moved to shine into the Dunn and Co. lot.
�In 48 hours, it was moved, but moved to shine on the wrong lot,� company owner David Dunn said. So Cherubini called to have it moved again.
The utility moved it back to its original location.
�So he called and said, �no, not that parking lot,� � Dunn said, and even gave his cellphone so he could talk the person through the proper placement.
Three days later, when Cherubini went into work, the light was moved � to point into the trees.
Another call was placed and another change was made. On the fifth move, the light was shifted to point into the adjacent parking lot. They were back where they started.
For the sixth change, Dunn said, Cherubini spent an hour on the phone with the utility and insisted on being on site when the change was made. He directed the work so that it was finally right.
His co-workers then came up with the light-bulb-shaped award. But, Cherubini�s persistence did not win him a first, second or third prize. No, he was given a sixth place because it took six tries to get it right.
No word on whether there will be an annual Light Up the Night award.

What is it about a magazine's glossy pages that makes good look great?
Sure, sure, the professional photographers big time periodicals employ can make magic with lighting and camera angles. But still, there's something somehow heightening to the images on those shiny slick pages.
Take steak, as Esquire did. We all know what steak looks like. Delicious to be sure, but familiar. But dedicate a few pages to some well shot pictures of charred beef sweating its own fat and you have something down right alluring.
The steak spread was part of Esquire's September issue. Fourteen glorious pages were dedicated to all things steer: wagyu beef, the perfect drink to have with steak (a martini, of course), a plug for The Prime Rib in Baltimore and an ode to Bern's Steak House, an institution of a steak restaurant in Tampa, Fla.
It was a good issue.
Once I stopped ogling the meat, I zeroed in on the three recipes that ran with the article. Michael Mina, chef at StripSteak in Las Vegas, offered his recipe for butter-poached bone-in top loin. Dave Walzog of SW Steakhouse in Las Vegas proffered his recipe for barbecue-spice-rubbed skirt steak with charred onions and jalapenos.
The third recipe -- filet mignon au poivre -- came from Bill Rodgers, executive chef at Keen's Chop House in New York. This is the recipe I would recreate.
Both steaks were seasoned with salt and pepper and cooked on the grill (Rodgers' in a very hot cast-iron pan and mine directly over the coals). The recipes differed in what we put on the steaks. For Rodgers, a rich brown au poivre sauce. For me, a grilled shrimp compound butter.
Although Walzog's skirt steak recipe is more befitting the grill, I chose Rodgers to make a point about filet mignon: it's an overrated cut. Because it's so lean (i.e. no fat) filet mignon lacks flavor. That's why it's so often wrapped in bacon, or in this case, covered in an au poivre sauce or capped with a compound butter.
But once you marry the steak to the fat, it's good enough to photograph.
You need to make the compound butter either the night before or the morning of so it has time to firm up. To do so, skewer the medium shrimp, brush with a little olive oil and season with a little salt and pepper. As you do this, pull the butter out of the refrigerator and let it warm up to room temperature.
Grill the shrimp for about three minutes per side. When the shrimp are cooked, pull them off the grill, let them cool and then rough chop them. Next, sauté the minced shallots on the stove over medium heat for three to five minutes. Remove from the pan and let cool.
When the butter is soft and everything is cool enough to handle, place the butter in the middle of a sheet of wax paper and make a groove down the length of the butter. Sprinkle 2 tsp. of salt and pepper over the butter. Add the tarragon, shallots, shrimp, red pepper flakes and oregano. Gently mix the ingredients thoroughly. (You ever watch the folks at Cold Stone Creamery mix toppings into ice cream? Mixing ingredients into compound butter is a very similar process.) When the ingredients are combined, fold the wax paper in half and begin forming the butter into a log. Finish by rolling the butter into a tube or log shape and tie the wax paper off at the ends.
When you're ready to start cooking, remove the steaks and jumbo shrimp from the refrigerator 30 minutes before you're ready to begin or when you light your charcoal grill. When the grill is hot, brush the steaks with olive oil and season them liberally with salt and pepper. Brush the shrimp with oil and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Place the steaks over the hottest part of the grill and cook for seven minutes per side or until a crust forms. Grill the shrimp off to the side of the grill for about three minutes per side or until they curl and turn pink. Pull it all off and let the steaks rest for at least three minutes.
When the surf and turf are ready, slice a thick wedge off the compound butter and place the disk on top of the filet. Top the whole thing with a grilled jumbo shrimp.
If you grew up close to Philadelphia, chances are you saw a drunken Mummer, got frost bite at a Thanksgiving Day parade, or booed the Eagles when Randall Cunningham's pass was not completed (or when Santa Claus took the field. But I really think we've moved past that). And while you were doing these things, chances are you had a soft pretzel in your hand. The pretzel probably came from a concession stand at the Vet, a hot dog vendor near the art museum, or even from (and I'm disinfecting with hand sanitizer as I write this) a metal shopping cart on South Street.
I relish those days of crazy fans, parades and soft pretzels. Sure, I love a good Philly cheese steak, but the soft pretzel holds a special place in my heart…right next to Rocky movies and water ice.
Making soft pretzels at home is easy. It takes basic ingredients and a little patience. I had both this weekend; I also have a spouse that worked at a popular pretzel shop (which will go unnamed) and he was able to share with me a roll-snap-cross-uncross-pinch technique to give the pretzels there shape, which no doubt made him very popular with certain mall-dwelling teenage girls in the nineties.
In a small bowl, mix 1 teaspoon of sugar into 1/4 cup of warm water. Sprinkle the yeast over it, and let this stand for 10 minutes. If the mixture is separated, you can stir it a bit to dissolve the yeast.
Combine 1 1/2 cups warm water, flour, and salt in large bowl, then stir the yeast into the mixture in the large bowl.
Knead for 8 to 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and stretchy. If the dough is really sticking to your hands, you can add a little more flour. Spray a large bowl with cooking spray, and place the dough in the bowl. Cover the bowl with a tea towel, and place the bowl on a warm surface, like on a rack in a warmed oven with the oven door open. (Or in an oven with the light on and the door closed.) The dough should rest for about an hour, and should be about twice its original size when it's done.
Gently punch dough down and roll it into a log. Depending on how big you want your pretzels to be, separate the dough into portions. (This recipe will make as many as 12, but we like larger, puffier pretzels, so our dough made 6).
Roll each portion into an inch-thick rope (you can go as thin as 1/2 inch). Pick up the ends of the rope, then cross your hands so that your arms make an X. The dough will be in a circle. Then un-cross your arms (crossing the ends of the dough) and pull the ends of the rope down and pinch the ends to the bottom of the dough circle, making a pretzel shape. Place the pretzels on a greased baking sheet.
Mix together 2 cups of warm water and the baking soda. Dip each pretzel into the water completely, shake it off and place it back on the greased cookie sheet. Repeat with each pretzel, and then sprinkle with the kosher salt.
Five beautiful feet of bratwurst sizzling on the grill. Maybe it's the German in me (probably the Freud), but that enormous sausage is downright pornographic.
Saturday, Sept. 20 was the official start of this year's Oktoberfest, so grilling an über brat was a must. So too was the sauerkraut, the Oktoberfest beers and the German potato salad...with swine. God I love German food. I also love my butcher.
Fact is, I could've ordered a whack of six-inch brats from the guys at Canales Quality Meats in Eastern Market. But why do that when they'll make me a sausage as long as I want? So I e-mailed Carlos Canales and ordered up five feet of German sausage. It was ready the next day.
See, that's why we should patronize our local butchers and purveyors. The level of customer service is so much higher and the amount of knowledge they have about their products is so much richer than what you'll find at your local chain grocery store. Besides, the quality and freshness of the products are far and away better than what you can get at Harris Teeter and Safeway. My sausage wasn't trucked in, Canales made it. Quality, man.
Back to the meal. In addition to the brat, I put together a variation on my mother-in-law's German potato salad. Ma Schmirler's dish is a straightforward German potato salad with bacon in a vinegar dressing. In my version, I replaced the boiled red potatoes with grilled fingerlings, added grilled pearl onions and tossed it all in a mustard vinaigrette. I didn't change a thing about the bacon.
Keeping in the spirit of things, I served all of this with a couple Oktoberfest beers. Using Rob Rutledge's great reviews of German and American Oktoberfest beers as a guide, I bought six-packs of Bell's Octoberfest and Erdinger Oktoberfest.
To make the mustard vinaigrette, combine the vinegar, garlic, mustard, thyme, basil, celery seeds and sugar in a bowl and mix well. Slowly add the oil while whisking rapidly. Add the salt and pepper to taste. Set aside until the potatoes are ready.
If you're using a charcoal grill, light it before starting on the potatoes. If you have a gas grill, boil the potatoes first. In either case, pull the bratwurst out of the refrigerator so it can lose some of its chill.
Place potatoes in a stock pot, cover with water and add a tablespoon of salt. Bring to a boil and cook until a knife inserted comes out with some resistance. Drain well and let them cool enough to handle. Slice the potatoes in half lengthwise and set aside.
As the potatoes boil, fry the bacon and set aside.
When the grill is ready, start cooking the potatoes and onions. Grill the potatoes meat side down for 3 minutes. When the potatoes have browned, remove. Pull the onions off with the last of the potatoes and chop coarsely.
While the potatoes are still hot, add them to a bowl with the bacon and onions, toss with the mustard vinaigrette, and add salt and pepper to taste.
When the potato salad is done, you're ready to grill the bratwurst and start warming the sauerkraut. Place the sauerkraut in a pot and set it off to the side the grill. Put the brat on the hottest part of the grill. After 5 minutes, carefully flip the brat over and cook for another 5 minutes. Move to a cooler part of the grill and cook for a final 10 minutes. Remove the brat and sauerkraut from the grill. Let the brat rest for 5 minutes.
To serve, cut goodly portions of the brat, spoon out the potato salad, divvy up the warmed sauerkraut and pour the beer.
