Chicago Bears Week 3 Takeaways: Trubisky Tarnishes, Foles Finishes, and More
Better late than never: the Bears came alive late to put away a wounded Falcons team and improve to 3-0. Here are the main takeaways.

New week, same story. The Chicago Bears escaped Atlanta with a win in week three. The team improved to 3-0 but didn't quiet the skeptics just yet. There is still some doubt as to how good the team actually is, but that's beside the point. 3-0 is 3-0, and with the new playoff format that adds a third wild card team to the mix, the Bears are in a great position.
Even in victory, there are always several key takeaways from the Chicago Bears victory over the Falcons. This includes a major move made by Matt Nagy and the coaching staff.
Trubisky Time is Over...For Now
The Mitchell Trubisky era, for the time being, seems to be over. In a shocking but also not entirely surprising move, the Bears benched Trubisky in the third quarter and replaced him with Nick Foles.
Trubisky was pulled from the game after throwing a brutal interception in response to a seven-play, 75-yard touchdown drive by Atlanta. To his credit, however, the interception was looking like a pick-six but he hustled to make a tackle to prevent the score.
The 26-year-old QB finished the day with the following stat line: 13/22 (59.1%), 128 yds, 1 TD, 1 INT, 71.8 QB Rating.
Trubisky having a short leash was naturally assumed after the team named him the starter. However, after struggling with consistency and putting an entire game together through the first two weeks, the Bears were nearing the end with him. They had finally seen enough after one half against a bad defense that was depleted due to injuries. Trubisky was still struggling and the aforementioned interception was the straw that broke the camel's back.
It's important to keep in mind that this might not be the last we see of Mitchell Trubisky given Nick Foles' injury history.
It's Nick Foles Time...For Now
Enter Nick Foles. The QB finally took reins of the offense with 9:58 left in the third quarter. The Bears went on to score three touchdowns with Foles at the helm; including a dime that he delivered to Anthony Miller to give the team the lead.
This doesn't include the fact that two additional touchdowns were taken off the board due to Falcons' CB Darqueze Dennard ripping the ball out of Allen Robinson's hands on the first one and Anthony Miller dropping the other.
Overall, Foles brought a sense of calmness to the offense. The former Super Bowl MVP was in control and never looked rattled, which was the shot in the arm the offense and the team needed.
Foles finished the day with the following stat line: 16/29 (55.1%), 188 yds, 3 TD, 1 INT, 95.2 QB Rating.
Matt Nagy announced today that Nick Foles will be the starter going forward, so it is now the veteran's job to lose and the only way that will happen is if he sustains a significant injury.
Matt Nagy
Matt Nagy finally has his guy, of sorts, in Nick Foles and there is no turning back. He now has a quarterback familiar with his system and style of offense, and one who is competent enough to run it.
Fans should expect Nagy to open up his "entire" playbook with Nick Foles running the show. Nagy was somewhat handcuffed when having to construct a game plan around Trubisky's limitations. Until now, Nagy was fitting a square peg into a round hole with Trubisky.
Nick Foles is not outstanding by any stretch of the imagination, but he is significantly better than Mitch Trubisky. The one knock on Nagy is that he didn't have the guts to give Trubisky the news of the benching himself. Instead, he had Bill Lazor do the dirty work. Regardless of the fact that the game was still going on, that should be on the head coach to deliver the news.
Nevertheless, the true evaluation of Nagy (the play-caller) can begin in earnest.
Tarik Cohen
The Bears suffered a major blow on Sunday when Tarik Cohen went down with a knee injury. Cohen suffered the injury when Brian Hill was "pushed" into him after calling for a fair catch on a punt return.
Soon after, it was reported that Cohen suffered a torn ACL.
Later on, it was officially confirmed that the running back would miss the remainder of the season.
Cohen's season ends prematurely as he finishes with 14 rushes for 74 yards (5.3 avg) and six receptions for 41 yards (6.8 avg).

NFL Championship Sunday Best Bets
It was just another week that the Bears' defense was gashed on the ground. Todd Gurley and Brian Hill both ran all over the Chicago defense. Eddie Goldman's absence in the middle of the run defense has been extremely evident so far this season.
Todd Gurley
Calvin Ridley
Stats per ESPN.com
The pass defense had its momentary lapses as well. They allowed Calvin Ridley to go off for 110 yards on five catches. Other than that, they were fairly solid, especially in the second half.
The Bears defense sacked Matt Ryan twice and forced one turnover, which was an interception to seal the victory. The unit as a whole is still not where everyone expects it to be, but there is still room for growth.
The Refs
Officiating still continues to be inconsistent through three weeks and nobody else felt the brunt of it more than the Bears. Two roughing the passer calls led to two Falcons touchdowns and one strip-sack got called back due to a penalty. Meanwhile, fair catch interference on the Tarik Cohen injury wasn't called and the blatant holding and neck wraps on Khalil Mack went uncalled as well.
This might be some bias shining through, but the fact of the matter is that the Bears had a couple of momentum-changing plays go against them thanks to the officiating.
Allen Robinson
Robinson had himself a day, as he posted ten catches for 123 yards and a touchdown. The touchdown was spectacular, as he broke multiple tackles as he scampered down the sideline for a 37-yard score. This play was a turning point game, as it pulled the Bears within one score.
However, Robinson had a ball ripped out of his hands that resulted in an interception for the second consecutive week. Robinson simply needs to be more physical and sure-handed to stop the bullying from inferior defensive backs.
Jimmy Graham? Jimmy Graham.
Don't look now, but Jimmy Graham has a role in this offense and a chance to resurrect his career. Graham hauled in six catches for 60 yards and two touchdowns on Sunday. He has quickly become a red zone threat for the Bears.
On the season, Jimmy Graham ranks second on the team in targets with 17. He also touts ten catches for 103 yards and three touchdowns.
It will be interesting how much his numbers will look going forward with Foles now under center.
LOL Falcons
For a team with their backs against the wall at 0-2, a second late-game collapse in as many weeks was less than ideal. Atlanta punched the Bears in the mouth early, but after the QB switch, they just crawled into a hole and hid.
The Falcons had just come off a loss in which they blew a 19-point lead, granted it was against a high-powered Cowboys' offense. What was their excuse this week? How did they blow a 16-point lead at home to the Bears, who were a supposed fraud 2-0 team or the worst 2-0 team coming into the game?
At 0-3 with back-to-back meltdowns, head coach Dan Quinn still has a job. Falcons fans must be in pain.
3-0 and It Feels So Good
It's hard to win in the NFL. There are analysts and critics out there still skeptical of the Bears at 3-0. So be it. At the end of the day, wins are all that matter and the Bears have three of them through three weeks.
The Bears' opponents have a combined record of 1-8: Lions (1-2), Giants (0-3), Falcons (0-3).
Nobody can't pin that on the Bears. They only play whoever is on their schedule.
What's On Tap Next?
The Bears will host the Indianapolis Colts at Soldier Field on Sunday, October 4th at 12 PM CT. The broadcast will be on CBS. The Colts are coming off a dominant 36-7 victory over the lowly New York Jets. As Matt Nagy announced earlier today, Nick Foles will be at the helm of the Bears offense going forward. Next week will mark his first start in the orange and blue.

Abstract. Humanities as well as the other culture areas are facing multiple challenges caused by the processes of globalization, rapid development of the technologies of communication and other changes in social life. Traditional hierarchical links and distinctions between different fields of culture are fading. On the one hand, the lines between humanities and social sciences are getting thinner, similarly as between different genres and styles in arts. On the other hand, the cultures of different regions of the world, particularly those of the West and of the East, are drawing closer to each other; this enables emerging various types of intercultural dialogues. All this incites the scholars to seek for a new conceptual means to be applied for the productive interpretation of new realities as well as for rethinking and reinterpreting the assets of the traditional culture. The interdisciplinary approach and multiculturalism are the characteristic features of the contemporary humanities, they raise complicated methodological issues. Digital humanities, interdisciplinary approach, semiotic studies of multimodal representations of information, multimodal communication are all responses of the humanities to the challenges of the modern world and, yet, new challenges tothe humanities as well.
The changes taking place in the humanities of nowadays are also strongly influenced by the widespread application of the electronic technologies of communication, which are competing with traditional communication of written texts. As a result many traditional views on art and culture in general, on the mission of art are changing. The areas of traditional aesthetic culture are interfered by virtual art, not accepting the principle of representation, peculiar to the classical concept of artistic creation. Under the influence of the postmodern philosophy the classical hierarchical structure of culture is disappearing as well as is the difference between the elite and popular culture. At the same time the new perspectives and forms of artistic creation appear. The humanities are facing the complicate tasks to reflect adequately the coming processes, to think over the new problems, to develop the interdisciplinary research.
Abstract. The article states the current crisis in philosophy and provides a thorough examination of its causes and prospective outcomes. It is argued that the crisis of philosophy is most clearly identified in: 1) dissolution of philosophy on a social and sociological tier, 2) negation of philosophical problems in the hermeneutical text analysis tradition, 3) the specialization process of extreme philosophy. The first moment of crisis the author highlights in reading T. Pinkard's texts. In these texts philosophy is reduced to sociology through a certain interpretation of Hegel's Phenomenology of the Spirit, where I consciousness is considered on a purely social level. The author shows that this interpretation is contrary to the essence of Hegel's philosophy because, according to Hegel, interpersonal encounter, considered at the famous master / slave dialectic, determining I consciousness, is not of a social nature. It must be understood primarily as a historical expression of the absolute Spirit, found through metaphysical thinking. The second crisis moment philosophy, is encountered while reading of M. Nussbaum's works, in a certain literary text reading manner, the real scope of philosophical problems - the authentic concept of transcendence - is narrowed to the shallow perception of transcendence, missing the opportunities for philosophy in the very literary texts. The author of this article sees the philosophical perspectives of interpretation, which literary hermeneutics is unable to discern and as a result reduces the philosophical concept, in the works of such authors as Ovid, H. James M. Proust, quoted by M. Nussbaum. The third moment of philosophy crisis is diagnosed in the context of the current position of sciences dominated by the extreme specialization. The philosophers' reflections are understandable only to a narrow circle of specialists. It is a sign that such philosophy has generally lost communication with the human reality, and, therefore, is inauthentic philosophy. As a way of exit from the crisis of philosophy the author suggests learning about the spiritual reality that be exercised via two concepts: gentleness and simplicity. A deep understanding of these concepts in the metaphysical sense opens an authentic philosophizing field. To illustrate this manner of philosophizing, the author draws on numerous examples, with the major focus on French philosophers Pierre Hadot and Louis Lavelle. Gentle and simple assessment of reality, creates a special relationship field between people and between thinkers, which celebrates growth of the authentic philosophy.
Abstract. This paper analyses the concept of truth, highlighting the various areas of truth. They can be counted four: a philosophical truth, a scientific truth, a theological truth and an aesthetic truth. The article focuses on the relationship of the philosophical truth with science and its relationship with theology.
The relationship of science and truth is defined as "hesitation", and this description allows not only to define the specifics of scientific truth, but also look for the relationship with the Greek philosophical concept of truth, interpreted through Heideggerian prism. After excluding R. Rorty's definition as completely incompatible with the concept of scientific domain specificity, A. C. Crombie's "scientific thinking styles" theory and I. Hacking conclusions are analysed. However, the key link between the scientific truth and the philosophy is shown through once formulated idea of clear obscurity (clair obscur) by Aristotle idea that might explain the Greek perception of truth. Heidegger's suggested interpretation of Greek concept of truth (Aletheia) allows to determine the relationship between scientific and philosophical truths areas.
Heidegger's approach is also taken as a starting point in defining the relationship between philosophical truth and theology. However, the proposed model is rejected, as the German philosopher was unable to discern authentic thinking in a peculiar area of theology. Searching for truth in theological specificity and its relationship to philosophical thinking, the article analyses texts by Derrida, St Augustine and Rosenzweig. Reflecting on the concept of religion Derrida defined two conceptual groups those of innocence and of faith. Their connection, which inevitably leads to God figure as an absolute guarantor of salvation, forms an essential part for the conditions of faith encompassing knowledge structures. Derrida's thinking is corrected and supplemented by Augustine's reflections on "vera religione" concept, however, after identifying the Hegelian truth development in time process, the emphasis is placed on Rosenzweig's primordial not-knowing about the world, the God and the idea of man. The latter is associated with the Christian point of view stemming from love and is the best medium for determination of philosophical and theological truth relations.
In conclusions the issue of originality and possible unification of each area of truth is discussed. Each "area of truth" finds in the opposite area a motive for seeking of its own truth: faith, methodical examination or questioning versatility.
Abstract. The article briefly surveys the Christian intellectual tradition as the tradition tries to come to grips with Pascal's complaint that human reasoning cannot reach the BiblicalGod. In his complaint that he wanted the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, Blaise Pascal epitomized the perennial issue of Christian philosophy: Can human reason approach the God of belief? Because of the first of the Ten Commandments, any Christian must strive to integrate the first principle of his philosophy and the God of his belief. Building upon ideas from Etienne Gilson, I try to map out, for purposes of further study, the key responses to achieve this required integration. The thinkers mentioned are: Augustine, Bonaventure, Aquinas, the Moslem Mutakallim, Latin Averroists, Hume, and Kant. Particular attention is paid to Aquinas' metaphysics of actus essendi by which he claimed to reach the God who revealed his name to Moses as "Ego sum qui sum: I am who am." The article concludes that Aquinas' a posteriori approach to God from the esse of sensible things appears to be sufficiently unique to avoid problems in other approaches. Only further study can determine if this is so.
Abstract. This paper criticizes the realistic approach to international relations. Due to the essence of the main categories of realism (such as state, sovereignty, nation), the realism paradigm is presented as non-optimal and defective, and it is explained by interpretation of the social contract. Following the latter interpretation, the social contract does not eliminate anarchy completely and anarchy can still appear at the international level. Because of the globalization processes, the world has grown tiny and the states are closely interrelated, this means that in the 21st century for an individual international anarchy is as dangerous as anarchy on the state level. For this reason the national state becomes a source of insecurity for the individual and, therefore, the transformation of the state becomes a necessity. This paper supports the statement that the international order should be organized by creating global and unified governance.
The European Union has introduced a most impressive integration project, which has the potential to establish a political unity not only in Europe, but also in the whole world. Since a sudden transition from one status (national state system) to another (supranational global governance) is hardly possible and the consequences are unpredictable, a gradual transition is recommended and it is more in favour by the EU. In other words, the EU integration process is a strategy aimed at "destruction" of the national state, which seeks full compliance with the terms of the social contract and the complete elimination of the anarchy. This strategy might be a new task or function of Europe.
Abstract. Not enough attention within the field of social sciences is paid to the problem of authoritarianism. In spite of the fact that this theme has not been deeply analysed, some of the evidence allows us to think that an authoritarian way of mind is usual for the inhabitants of our country. In this article the features of the development of authoritarianism are studied from a multidisciplinary point of view, revealing its existence in the modern organization of Lithuanian labour. In this article the groups of factors which have the biggest influence on the existence of authoritarian relations (human factors, close environment and macro environment), performed research and studies of the 20th century, diagnostic tools are studied, the need for research on the development of authoritarianism within modern Lithuania is substantiated.
Theoretical analysis performed in this article revealed differences and even discrepancies between different scientific theories, studies and researching strategies. Most of the scientists look for the reasons in personal features, behaviour, life experience. The other scientists concentrate on the culture of internal relations within organizations. Some of the scientists say that not only personal features influence personality, but also behaviour, the close environment, which means that most probably permanent mutual interaction between human and environmental factors takes place in this phenomenon.
There is no unanimous opinion of what indicators should be chosen for the evaluation of this phenomenon. Their different compositions cause different results. Research experience shows that this phenomenon is influenced by many factors. Personal features cannot be separated from others factors which have influence on authoritarianism, such as the internal culture of organization, relations, etc., including macro factors which sometimes are even more important than personal features. That means that the union of these factors at an exact location and time gives different synergetic effects.
It would be expedient to perform a study on intercultural authoritarian relations, which would allow testing of the universality and predictive interpretational power of traditional theories.
Abstract. Processes of globalization rapidly reduce the boundaries between traditional science fields and thus create new challenges for the creators of these sciences i.e. contemporary humans. Despite the unprecedented degree of globalization during the last century, this process is not new. Therefore, the constant need for rethinking of cultural and historical heritage emerges. This article explores the period from the end of the 19th c. to the beginning of the 20th c., when professional philosophy was not developed for objective reasons, but intellectuals of different views (both Catholic and secular) sought to reflect on contemporary processes. Even though at the end of 19th century the most relevant issues were those of nationality , the problems of culture and questions on interaction between different fields of culture were also discussed at that time.
The article discusses the question of what kind of culture and science should exist to develop a mature and balanced personality. This question is discussed from a historical perspective. Three different prevailing world outlooks can be distinguished during the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th centuries. Materialists (positivists, socialists) denied all spiritual science as minor, if not useless or even harmful, As the only goal, i.e. to solve contemporary (social) problems, for science was set, then only sciences which provide accurate and useful knowledge are needed. Therefore, the importance of the humanities or other fields approaching spiritual culture is rejected.
The clergy denied such a single sided view of culture. For them not only a material and, thus, scientific interpretation of the world was not acceptable, but also was a single sided idealistic reasoning of culture held by supporters of the romantic views. While holding neo-Thomistic views and often combining them with the ideas of V. Solovyov, the clergy had no doubt about the possibility of holistic understanding of the world which could unfold the versatility of the being. However, such comprehensiveness is not an end in itself, it is indispensable for creation of a balanced, moral human. The final goals of positivists, Marxists and neo-Thomists became paradoxically similar: culture, according to neo-Thomists and science, according to positivists, must lead to the ideal state of humanity. In fact, the clergy speaks of a balanced individual and positivists and Marxists speak of anonymous, unified humanity united by common scientific or social ideals. Consequently, the question emerges whether by reducing the limits between regions, cultures and thus by merging entirely different areas we could maintain the diversity. In this case the Romanticists, who emphasize the originality and uniqueness referring to language as the main source of culture, are exceptional. Also the neo-Thomists, who sought for synthesis of all fields of culture, noticed the distinctions of these fields which could not be eliminated.
Abstract. During the 19th and 20th centuries, European countries based their language policies on the principle lingua instrumentum regni ("language is the instrument of political control"), born with the French Revolution. As a direct consequence, the numerous local languages and dialects spoken in Europe have considerably lost ground in favour of national languages. However, in the last few decades the approach to linguistic diversity has changed contextually to the strengthening of the globalised dimension of society, so that nowadays states recognise regional and minority languages in addition to the national ones. But dialects are not legally recognised nor are regarded as languages. I deal with the Cremonese dialect, analyse briefly linguistic studies and literature, and conclude by advancing a proposal for its safeguard. As any other idiom, Cremonese dialect should be preserved for reasons of linguistic rights and cultural diversity.
Abstract. The paper deals with the analysis of the relation between processes of cultural globalization, dissolution of language boundaries and completion of the language field with vibrations in the scale of hierarchy of a system of values in the national language image of the world.
The study of transformation of the bases of the national cultural codes, attitudes towards the national cultural traditions and processes of development of the living modern language (changes in frequency of usage of a series of lexical units, completion of the language field, paths and speeds of penetration of new lexical units) is offered as one of the methods of the investigation of the specificity of national processes of accelerated cultural adaptation.
The genuine goal of the colonial policy and their social strategies were pointed out clearly in the 1850–60s. The Georgians' response to colonialism was modified and the previous ambivalent status was replaced by the radical confrontation: the main goal became the idea of the peaceful Caucasus on the condition of protection of national identities.
The problem became rather different and more complicated in 20th century Georgian literature, when the relation towards the ethnical problem was newly established within the frame of Soviet ideology and offered the different, non-ethnical interpretation of the terms "Caucasus" and "Caucasian": the national boarders were ignored and integrated within the model of Homo Sovieticus. Later, when the Soviet regime was destroyed, the terms "the Caucasus" and "Caucasian" caused the establishment of a new type of discourse, which determined the new interpretational standard of Georgian literature of the end of 20th century and the beginning of 21st century.
Abstract. Historiography of swadeshi performances of Bengal, since the publication of Sumit Sarkar's seminal and voluminous work on swadeshi movement in Bengal, has followed the standard path of aesthetic definition. It has been variously described as a 'technique of mass contact' and as the harbinger of national feeling, using the standard trope of 'awakening the people to a nation'. But swadeshi jatra performances, as recorded in governmental records and collective memory, appear as a space of entertainment, a space of interaction between performers and audience, and most importantly as a space for interaction between ideas of the intellectuals, performative presentation of the idea, and its reception by the audience.The performance and reception in the space excited the audience into a frenzy of reaction, expression, hence audibility. As the folk space of performance made the hitherto unheard voices audible, a pattern of bonding based on felt sensation began to emerge in the space. The community of sensation that emerged, bonded as a nation, however, modulated the notion of nationhood in the moment of reception, adding new contours to it. This led to the development of various shades in the notion of nationhood. In this article, through an analysis of the performance of swadeshi jatra and its reception, I have tried to discover the vision of nation engendered by performances like jatra, and how precedence was set by it for the development of a nuanced national identity in the spaces of performance of South Asia.
Abstract. Young Philologist Academy (YPA) is a newly launched project initiated in 2011and developed by the staff of Foreign Languages Department, Institute of Humanities. The main aim of the project is to find an effective way to promote studies of the English Philology and Linguistics among final and penultimate year high school students, to foster their creativity and critical thinking abilities and to encourage cooperation between the University staff and students. The meetings of YPA lasted from November 2011 till June 2012, all of them tackling specific English language aspects or focussing on some issues of life in the UK. Five guest speakers and twenty two staff members at the Foreign Languages Department contributed to the project.
Over 100 students from Vilnius, Alytus, Anykščiai, Utena, and surrounding areas registered their interest in the project at the initial phase; this rather big number signalling the expressed demand for such type of learning. Throughout the duration of the project, YPA students were asked to complete several questionnaires in order to assess their own linguistic abilities and the success of the project. The findings obtained from the analysis of these questionnaires could be of interest to both university and high school English teachers as they highlight some of the needs of the English learners that a successful English language course should address. Participants' demographic data, self-assessment of their English language skills and their expectations from YPA are discussed. The validity of the research findings is backed by statistical processing of self-evaluation data using SPSS (Software Package for Social Sciences).
Abstract. The Military Academy of Lithuania is one of the youngest higher educational establishments where professional military studies are combined with academic ones. The aim of the article is to analyse the process of the creation of a new type of collective identity, observing the main factors and peculiarities of the process. The attention is focused on value orientations of the military and their influence on organizational identity of the Academy.
The Armed Forces, as an organization, has experienced a lot of transformations in its structure and mission. Despite this, the identity of the military has been formed, in essence, on a masculine background. Considering the peculiarities of the aim and composition, the collective identity of the military has been created on the basis of specific values, such as duty, responsibility, discipline, courage, loyalty, power, etc. The academic identity has been set up on the basis of its different social roles, presuming other priorities in the system of values: i. e. respect, tolerance, truth, justice, freedom, creativity and critical thinking. Thus, framing of the united identity of the Academy is a complex and dissonant process.
Postmodern societies face global political transformations and new threats that have brought about new military missions and tasks of the present Armed Forces, introducing changes into their structure with the aim of forming professional military troops that are ready to participate in different international military operations. The paradigm of the postmodern military predetermines qualitative transformations in the system of values in shaping the new military identity. The new identity of the military should be based on universal human virtues that have brought about changes in the system of military education.
The Military Academy of Lithuania was established when the issues of national identity and the purpose of national security policy became very important, as well as the issues of international cooperation and the creation of the civic society. The national identity and the identity of military started to be constructed on different social backgrounds: those of modern, late modern and postmodern societies. Moreover, the collective identity of the Military Academy of Lithuania is an interaction between both military and academic identities where the first is still the dominant one. A postmodern paradigm of the military presupposes the development of the traditional military identity on the basis of human values that will inevitably result in the increasing role of academic identity in this creative process.
Abstract. This article analyses the concept of advertising and the theoretical aspect of advertising strategy. Advertising can be defined as various means of dissemination of information on goods and services, promoting their use to potential users impersonally. Advertising strategies for selecting the location of a typical advertising plan diagram can be defined as decisions related to the target audience coverage, creative advertising message strategy selection and dissemination of the advertising strategy selection tools. A promotional campaign makes use of advertising funds that concentrate more skilled professionals to produce and implement advertising. An advertising campaign has flexibility. Also, due to the high level of ambition advertising reaches a wider consumer and user layers. Advertising is also an integral part of the market, it creates new jobs, increases income and reveals the positive characteristics of the products.
The research survey in Vilnius College and V.A. Graičiūnas School of Management showed that a banner does not create a significant impact on students' decision to study. College advertising caused interest and indifference at most. Advertising on television and in the press must be improved. Most college websites need to be improved in areas such as the amount of information, web usability, and range of services. In order to evaluate the advertising such criteria was established as advertising frequency, advertising originality, the attractiveness of study programs, the information in advertising, promotional text expressiveness, degree programs in advertising images, advertising degree programs highlighting the novelty and discounts. Advertising is most attractive in the social science college. The study showed that college marketing professionals need to work on improving their marketing plan, promotional messages, and college websites.
Abstract. In 2000 the Law on Lobbying Activities was adopted in Lithuania and in 2003 it was amended. The country institutionalised a certain model of the lobbying institute, which is distinguished by the system of permission of lawful forms of lobbyism and, by contrast, prohibition of shadow lobbying appearances and sanctions for violations, mandatory registration of lobbyists, their strict control, liability and reporting. Such tradition of interaction of interest groups with government institutions is typical to the USA and some other countries, including several post-Communist nations.
However, the analysis shows that lobbying legalised itself in Lithuania according to the procedure laid down by the Law only in insignificant volume; a small group of registered lobbyists pursue it—their number differs, but seldom exceeds twenty natural and legal persons who do not play any more noticeable role in influencing political decisions. Lithuanian lobbying has serious issues, for example, bad public opinion, etc., however, the essential obstacle has become the fact that non-governmental organisations, representing civil business interests, failed to integrate into the system laid down by the Law. Their lobbying on behalf of their members remained unregulated and uncontrolled.
Eventually, an alternative attitude to lobbying regulation was settled. This is the model of lobbying activities poorly restricted by legal norms, when high publicity and transparency standards, ensured by internal rules, codes of ethics and analogous instruments of government institutions are applicable to the actions of lobbyists. Influential associated interest groups actively speak against the attempts, covered by the necessity of lobbying regulations, to restrict the initiatives of civil society, related to the objective to influence legislation.
Lithuania failed to establish the explicitly and strictly legally regulated lobbying of the Anglo-Saxon type, though the Law on Lobbying is officially still in force. In this area our country should take the road chosen by the absolute majority of democratic countries and refuse altogether lobbying regulating lobbying under a special legal act.
Abstract. The author of the article analyses the restoration and development of Soviet courts in Lithuania from the beginning of the reoccupation in 1944, till 1956, when the cult of Stalin's person was officially condemned by the Communist party. The author discusses the formation of the Soviet court system and the changes to this system after World War 2, the staff of the Soviet judiciary body from 1944 till the first judge elections in 1949 and the legitimization of Soviet courts in subsequent elections in 1951 and 1954. The article also reveals the peculiarities of judicial body formed in 1944–1956, revealing the lack of judges and the reasons for this situation, showing the process of political and legal training of judges. Before the first court elections in 1949, the Soviet court system was established in the absence of societal participation. Officially the formation of the peoples' courts was delegated to the local authorities and the formation of the Supreme Court—to the Supreme Council of the LSSR. However, de facto, the body of Soviet judiciary in 1944–1949 was formed not by the local authorities or the Supreme Council of the LSSR, but by the Ministry of Justice, which, after selecting candidates, coordinated the candidates with the Communist Party's Staff department and only after that submitted candidates to the local authorities or to the Supreme Council of the LSSR for approval. The new order of the elections of the peoples' courts, adopted in 1948, did not change basically the former elections practice. After the elections in 1949, 1951 and 1954 the massive and unanimous participation of society was stated, but in reality neither positive, nor negative voting results had an impact on the court formation. Forming the body of Soviet judges during the first years of the reoccupation was challenging, because of the low number of reliable judges which was attempted to reduce by political and legal training in legal classes and in special institutions of legal education. But the demand of legally educated and politically reliable judges was much higher than was possible to prepare in short time, therefore, in 1944–1956 randomly selected individuals of questionable reputation sometimes became judges, by whom not only the Soviet judiciary system, but the Communist regime as a whole, could be discredited. Therefore, in 1946 the Communist Party implemented the Decree which reformed legal and political education of judiciary officers. After this initiative, the training of legal officers and the results of political and legal education started slowly to improve.
Abstract. This paper aims to find an answer to the questions of what principles of electoral law are entrenched in the Constitution of 1992; what is their content and importance. In the Constitution expressis verbis are entrenched four principles of Parliamentary, Presidential and Municipal elections: universal, equal, direct suffrage and secret ballot. The Constitutional Court has exclusive powers to construe the Constitution officially and to provide the official concept of the provisions of the Constitution, so in order to find an answer to the above mentioned questions it is necessary to analyse not only the text of the Constitution itself, but also the jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court. The jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court reveals that not only the above-mentioned four principles, but also other principles of electoral law, inter alia the constitutional principle of free and democratic elections, the principle of publicity, the principle of honest competition in elections, the principle of transparency of the election process are entrenched in the Constitution. There is no finite list of the principles of electoral law. The analysis of the jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court shows that the main principles, whose content was best revealed, are universal, equal, direct, free suffrage and secret ballot. The content of the principles of electoral law are revealed in the jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court case by case. In every case the Constitutional Court reveals as much of the content of the particular principle as is necessary for the fair resolution of the case. The constitutional principles of electoral law are applicable not only in the elections of national representative political institutions, but also in the elections of the European Parliament which is the representative political institution of the European Union.
The constitutional principles of electoral law are important for the implementation of both active and passive electoral rights. These principles are the criterions on the grounds of which the democracy of the elections and the validity of the results of the election, are assessed and they are the criterions for assessment whether the representative political institutions are instituted properly, whether the constitutional rights to vote and to stand for election are not violated.
Abstract. The aim of this article, firstly, is to analyse the scope of the right to be taught in a minority language under the regulation of international law and, secondly, to discuss the interaction between international and national laws, to evaluate Lithuanian national legislation concerning the establishment and enjoyment of this right.
No legal documents of global application ensure the right to be taught in a minority language. Despite this fact, the legal documents of global application establish the right to education (Article 26 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 13 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, Article 5 of the Convention against Discrimination in Education, Article 5 of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, Article 28 of the Convention on the Rights of the Child). The right to education forms the background of the right to be taught in a minority language as a progressively realized right.
The European regional human rights system, apart from establishing the general basis of the right to be taught in a minority language (Article 2 of Protocol 1 of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms), directly ensures the right to be taught in a minority language (Article 14 of the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities). It is worth emphasizing that the enjoyment of the right to be taught in a minority language depends on certain conditions: 1) the state's area traditionally or substantially inhabited by persons belonging to national minorities; 2) a sufficient demand of teaching in a minority language. Neither of these conditions are defined in the Convention. The Advisory Committee also does not define the above-mentioned terms: the Committee evaluates the practise of the particular state and individually qualifies whether the particular state's practise conforms to the Convention provisions. The enjoyment of the right to be taught in a minority language should not become a tool promoting disjuncture of national minorities. Following the above-mentioned notions, the national legislation of the Republic of Lithuania is analysed in this article.
Abstract. This article analyses the problems of defining the concept of domestic violence in Lithuania from the perspective of international law, focusing on the problem of delimitation of domestic violence and gender-based violence against women. The article provides an analysis of the concept of domestic violence under international legal documents (UN and CoE Conventions), and in relevant Case Law and the Lithuanian national legislation: i.e. the recently adopted Law on Protection Against Domestic Violence, which entered into force on 15 December 2011. The paper provides an assessment of the national law in consideration of international law. The author considers whether the law could and should be completely gender-neutral (the model chosen now in Lithuania). In addition, the need to consider the perpetrator's rights (property interests, presumption of innocence, and victim's opposition to criminal sanction) is analysed in the context of the relevant international human rights cases.
Abstract. A lot of medicinal products currently administered to the paediatric population have not been specifically studied or authorized for their use. This leads to problems such as, for example, increase in adverse (and sometimes lethal) reactions risks. EC Regulation 1901/2006 on Medicinal Products for Paediatric Use (the Paediatric Regulation) was approved in response to the need to have medicinal products properly adapted for the paediatric population. A system of incentives set out by the Paediatric Regulation is focused on the promotion and development of paediatric research as its purpose is to generate data on the safety and efficacy of medicinal products for paediatric use.
This article analyses international, EU, and Lithuanian legal acts, judicial practice and the doctrine of law in order to assess whether Lithuanian regulations of giving the informed consent to participate in clinical trials provide sufficient protection of rights and interests of minors and does not place unfounded obstacles to the stimulation of development of paediatric medicinal products.
The first part of the article explains legal concepts of minor, child in the context of biomedical research and fundamentals of the representation of a minor by parents or legal guardians in giving the informed consent to participate in research. The author of the article analyses the legal notion "separated parents" and gives two recommendations: identified problems could be solved by regulation providing the right to parents to give each other power of attorney for the custody of the child that expressly states that consent to participate in trial is given; the law could also provide an exception to the joint decision-making of both parents when on the basis of objective reason, delay in reaching the decision may cause harm to the child. The third part of the article emphasises problems of the legal requirement to obtain the consent of children's rights protection agencies. The article concludes that this requirement does not provide any additional protection of minors' interests and contradicts EU law. Therefore, this requirement is inapplicable in cases where parents are giving the consent for paediatric research. The article also explores the peculiarities of regulation of minors' assent to participate in research in Lithuania. This analysis shows that in the case of consenting to biomedical research, a minor over sixteen years old must always consent to participate in a clinical trial (additionally, apart from the parents or guardians). The legal regulation should impose fixed age or competence (i.e. capability to form an opinion and assess the information that was given) criteria for minors under sixteen assent. The right to determine the minor's age of assent or competence criteria, which are needed for a particular clinical trial, can be left for the determination of ethics committees.
Abstract. The principle of full compensation (compensation lucri et damni) is one of the fundamental principles of delictual liability under the Civil Law of Lithuania and other European countries. The principle should be treated as the starting point for answering the question of whether the individual's legitimate interests and reasonable expectations have been adequately protected. Given the fact that the object of the research is the analysis of the principle of full compensation (restitutio in integrum) under delictual liability, the purpose of the principle shall be defined as putting the victim back in the position he or she would have been in if the tort had not been committed. Therefore, it is important to assess the type and extent of the victim's losses precisely, so that his or her interests would be adequately protected.
The principle of full compensation in a particular situation cannot be applied to its full extent due to the factors of subjective nature. According to article 6.251 (2) of the Lithuanian Civil Code, the factors of subjective nature are considered in such criterions: the nature of liability, the financial status of the parties and parties' interrelation. The nature of liability should be understood as the basis of liability—strict liability or liability for fault. If the liability is without fault (strict liability), the elimination of a specific type of damage, a certain amount of damages and etc. can be justifiable. When fault is one of the necessary conditions of liability, the form of fault (intent or negligence) can play an important role in limiting liability—the milder form of fault gives the court broader discretion to reduce the amount of damages and vice versa. The financial status of the parties should be treated, firstly, as the tortfeasor's financial situation, and, secondly, the victim's financial situation.
In the first case, evaluating the tortfeasor's financial situation, all relevant circumstances that may affect the person's financial situation shall be taken into account. Evaluating the victim's financial situation, his or her good financial status can be the basis of reducing the damages (but this factor must be evaluated carefully and invoked only when the situation needs a fair settlement). The interrelation of the parties should be interpreted as cooperation of both parties or at least one of the parties (usually the tortfeasor's) benevolent kindness to another party until the damage infliction or after the damage occurred. Given the fact that the above criterions are the exceptions of the main rule that damage must be compensated in full, the factors of subjective nature shall be applicable only if awarding full compensation would lead to unacceptable and grave consequences.
Feliksas Miliutis. What is a "Fair" Squeeze-Out/Sell-Out Price in Lithuania?
Abstract. The object of this work is legal regulation of fair squeeze-out and sell-out price in Lithuania. The author of this paper tries to answer the question that at first glance seems simple—what is a "fair" squeeze-out and sell-out price in Lithuania. More specifically, the author of this work seeks to identify which price is considered and should be considered as fair in squeeze-outs and sell-outs, to identify which methods and standards are employed to determine it and to evaluate whether such price is sufficient to safeguard the rights and legal interests of shareholders.
The author of this paper presents a discussion on standards of "fair" squeeze-out and sell-out price used by the Securities Commission of the Republic of Lithuania and judiciary as well as methods used to come up to the "fair" squeeze-out and sell-out price. The investigation showed that neither Lithuanian courts, nor the Securities Commission share the same understanding in regard to standards and methods that they have to employ in order to determine a price of squeeze-out and sell-out, which could be considered as "fair." However, it is more or less clear that both the judiciary and the Securities Commission agree that determination of a "fair" squeeze-out and sell-out price should not be limited to a particular standard or method.
Generally, the author of this paper finds that it is likely that a fair squeeze-out/sell-out price can be defined as the value of shares at the moment of squeeze-out/buy-out, which is defined according to one of the widely accepted methods and which is higher that the market prices of the shares under squeeze-out/sell-out.
The author of this paper also suggests that the fair squeeze-out/sell-out price could also be defined as the intrinsic value of shares at the moment of squeeze-out/buy-out, i.e. a proportionate value in a going concern (a value of a target company), which on its own term is defined under discounted cash flow method.
Abstract. The registration of tastes as Community Trade Marks became possible from 1 April, 1996. The Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market (Trade Marks and Designs) (OHIM) began accepting applications for taste trademarks when EC Regulation 40/94 on the Community Trade Mark came into force.
The primary issue of this article is the discussion of whether the taste is capable of providing the essential function of a trademark. The basic criterion for identifying trademarks eligible for registration (and protection) is distinctiveness. A taste is a sign that has the potential to be included in the definition of a trademark according to the Directive and to the CTMR.
It should be noted that taste as a trademark can be applied only for goods but not for services. It comes from the nature of the taste itself: taste is initially stimulated by the contact of saliva, which dissolves or dilutes tasty molecules of food and transports them toward the taste receptors. Normally, the services cannot stimulate taste receptors.
The taste trademark is not immediately viewed as a trademark, in part because it has not been traditionally used as such. Consumers need to be conditioned to perceive the claimed taste as a source-identifying object: taste should help a consumer distinguish one brand of goods and services from that of another. The taste should be viewed by the consumer as a trademark, but not as a decorative or functional feature of goods. The main problem of the taste trademark is that it is typically perceived as simply as a functional feature of the goods. Taste is a different sort of a distinctive sign in the sense it is intrinsic to the product in question. Very often, taste will prove to be an essential component of the product it claims to distinguish. Tastes cannot normally be separated from the product they should distinguish and that makes some difficulty for consumers in gaining access to the mark. The taste of a product can only be appreciated once it is consumed. The article discusses if there is any point where the taste mark can be exhibited.
The article discusses Eli Lilly & Co.'s Community Trade Mark Application case. The application for an artificial strawberry flavour for use in pharmaceutical products was refused by the OHIM second board of appeals. An artificial strawberry flavour was found to be commonplace and devoid of a distinctive character in relation to pharmaceutical products. It was thought that consumers were likely to see the taste as a means to disguise the unpleasant flavour of medicine rather than as a trademark—in other words there was doubt over whether it functioned as an indication of origin.
Abstract. The main purpose of the article is to analyse various kinds of economic activities which, because of some specific features named in the Criminal Code of the Republic of Lithuania (hereinafter—the CC), are equated to criminal offences and also the status of the revenue of these activities.
The analysis of both the norms of the CC and the practice of the Lithuanian courts (mainly—Lithuanian Supreme Court) showed that in order to decide what (if any) sanctions should be applied in a particular situation it is not enough to decide whether the economic activity in question was legal or not. It is especially important to find out which aspect of the person's activity turns it into a criminal act in cases where confiscation of property or other measures related to recovery of assets and alleged illicit enrichment are considered. The author of the article suggests the classification of criminalized economic activities, based on the specific features of every kind of such activity which is the divide point between a legal business and a criminal act. All economic activities that are considered to be the latter can be divided into four groups: a prohibited activity, such as trafficking in human beings, purchase or sale of a child, drug trafficking, etc. (Articles 147, 157, 260 of the CC accordingly); a non-forbidden activity carried out by a natural or legal person having no right to take on such a business, e.g. illegal trade in alcohol and tobacco products carried out by a natural person (Articles 202 section 1 and 200 of the CC accordingly); an economic activity, which is permitted as such, but unlicensed, undeclared or carried out with other major infringements in a particular case, e.g. unauthorized exploitation of natural resources, unlicensed provision of medical services or unlicensed production of beverages carried out by a legal person (Article 202 section 1 of the CC); violations of the requirement of accountability and tax paying of a legal business (Articles 219–223 of the CC).
This classification of criminal offences in the field of economic activities is useful in deciding which part of the person's revenues and property should be assumed to be proceeds of crime and confiscated, also what other economic sanctions should be applied.
Abstract. The article discusses the fundamental aspects of the technological neutrality principle application in explaining the signs of the offences against the security of electronic data and information systems. It also analyses if the legal regulation of being neutral to technologies conforms to the especially important principles of legality and legal certainty in Criminal Law.
In the sphere of regulation of information and communication technologies, this principle ensures equivalent evaluation of technologies as it forbids giving to any one of them priority over the other. As a result, it helps to avoid restrictions on law application, which arise due to the usage of specific terms related to technologies. If choosing the criminal legal regulation as one of the possible control measures of dangerous acts in cyberspace, this principle becomes relevant when explaining the signs of the offences against the security of electronic data and information systems.
According to the conclusion drawn in the article, the idea of legal regulation being neutral to technologies, which may seem advanced at first sight, in the context of Criminal Law could become open to criticism due to non-conformity of such regulation to the principles of legality and legal certainty. Although the principle of technological neutrality is considered to be an effective instrument when coordinating rapid development of information and communication technologies with the set legal regulation, it cannot guarantee fulfilment of the completeness, accuracy and clarity requirements for legal definition of the criminal act. In the process of resolving the above-mentioned problems, considerable attention is paid not only to the importance of appropriate concepts but also to case law (court practice). According to the author of the article, the decision to admit or disclaim having committed the criminal act in the case law could be motivated by the criteria of criminalisation (decriminalisation) and the principles of Criminal Law ensuring appropriate application of Criminal Law.


How long should I cold smoke chicken breast before Sous Vide?
It probably depends how you're doing it. If you're using a smoke gun you'll get a better flavour to smoke after sous vide.
Using masterbuilt slow smoker attachment which creates no heat inside cooking chamber.
OK. It would depend on how smoky you want your chicken. Hmmmm...... I probably still wouldn't cold smoke before cooking for food safety reasons. Most food that is cold smoked is cured first which helps secure it against bacterial growth while it is at ambient temperature in the smoker.
I doubt that you would want more than 30 mins to an hour of smoke on chicken breast. I would certainly make sure I cooked it to full pasteurisation if I cold smoked first.


If Pondicherry, in India, is associated with the French, and Goa is associated with the Portuguese, then Tranquebar is connected with which part of the globe? Persons knowledgeable about history would immediately recognize that it is the Danes.
Welcome to Tranquebar, a place of tranquility located alongside the Coromandel Coast of southern India which is of undeniable historical importance. Tranquebar or 'Tarangambadi' (the actual Tamil vernacular name) is situated in the Nagapattinam District of the state of Tamilnadu. Among other historical monuments, Tranquebar boasts the famous Danish 'Dansborg Fort.' History has it that King Raghunatha Nayak, ruler of Tranquebar, wanted to expose his kingdom to different trading avenues. Fortuitously, Danish explorers on a sea voyage happened to visit, and upon seeing the serene seashore, thought it an excellent place to trade.
The Danes approached King Raghuntha Nayak and a settlement was set aside for trading. The visitors were enthused by the favorable treatment accorded them by the Indian King, and the fruitful relationship was formalized as the Indo-Danish pact during the King's reign. Amazingly enough, 3,111 rupees (~$69) per year was the price that King Nayak received to rent out Tranquebar to the Danish. This amount may look like a pittance in terms of today's land values, but it was the sum that paved the way for a period of co-existence between the two cultures. The agreement document, which was signed by King Nayak in Telugu, is now housed in the international archives at Copenhagen, Denmark.
The Danes eventually sold the entire Tranquebar area to the English for a sum of 12, 500,000 rupees (~$276,000). With India's independence in 1947, the fort became a protected monument by the Indian government. The State Archeological department of Tamilnadu maintains the fort, inside which a museum now resides displaying artifacts of both Danish and Indian origin.
The fort is now under renovation. The museum has added many interesting articles to its collection, from fossils to Danish articles, Danish coins, Chinese porcelain items, etc. Weapons used by the Danish are in display in the museum, and are of considerable importance to researchers involved in the study of ancient weapons like swords and spears. Paintings of Maratha kings are also available in the museum. Palm leaf manuscripts are on display, which highlight the method of scripting used in days of yore. Some of the documents feature the seal of the Danish governor. Terracota figures and bowls add spice to the list of articles. For example, an urn burial jar is on display, giving some idea as to how people in those days might have utilized such recepticles.
A sixteen-point treaty between King Rahunatha Nayak and King Christian IV is on display, and arouses visitors' interest to read its terms and conditions. It is astonishing to note the professionalism with which the treaty was written, in addition to the social and security aspects that it addressed. Danish Navy Captain Roland Clippe was instrumental in striking the deal on behalf of the Danish King with his Indian counterpart, and was also the driving force behind the construction of the Dansborg Fort.
Notwithstanding the prominence of the fort, the other monuments and edifices surrounding it also bear testimony to the fact that Tranquebar is certainly worth visiting for historic interest.
The Zeigenbalg Monument pays homage to the achievements of Barthlomeus Zeigenbalg, and Plutschau of Germany. They landed at Tranquebar on 09.07.1906 on the orders of Danish King Frederick IV to provide religious services and public service in India. They evinced an extraordinary interest towards learning the Tamil language, which took Zeigenbalg two years to master. He translated a Tamil book titled "Ulaga Needhi" (Universal Justice) into German, which is now available in the government library at Copenhagen. An international exhibition at London hosts another of his great works titled, "An account of the Malabarians." Not many may be aware that Zeigenbalg set up the first printing press in India at Tranquebar. The press was utilized to print the first Tamil version of the Holy Bible (New Testament) in 1715 AD. He now rests in peace in the New Jerusalem Church, an attractive Danish building built in 1718.
The familial relationship between Tranquebar and Denmark still continues to flourish, nurturing the historical ties. The Princess of Denmark visited the Dansborg Fort a few years ago and reminisced about its history, stating that she was happy to see that the it was being renovated. The Tranquebar Association at Denmark was responsible for the partial renovation of the fort in 2002. The Archeological Survey of India and the State Tamilnadu Archeological department also supported the construction.
Tranquebar is also environmentally healthy in that it is considered an 'Ozone Rich Beach' due to the presence of profuse amounts of ozone. Ozone that contains three molecules of oxygen acts as a deterrent to harmful ultraviolet rays from penetrating into the atmosphere. Ozone therapy is becoming popular nowadays as a non-invasive procedure in treating heart ailments and cancers by injecting ozone into the body.
The fort, which is in an ideal location, can be reached from Karaikal, the nearby Union Territory or from Kumbakonam by bus. It's about 35kms north of Nagapattinam and 50kms form Chidambaram. The ancient port city of Poompuhar nearby Tranquebar is also worth a visit. History lovers can definitely find lots of interesting information in the fort and would certainly be amazed to see how it withstood the fury of the Tsunami waves, which shook the coastal areas of Tamilnadu. Even as the tides wait for no one, the fort continues to stand as a grand momement to the area's past, waiting to attract more tourists who wish to learn more about a history that embraced both trade and culture.

Jennifer Scripps, the head of the Office of Cultural Affairs, said Spanish artist Casto Solano's four-panel piece has not yet arrived, though it was originally due to land here in December. A new date for the unveiling was penciled in a couple of weeks ago. Said Scripps, it just couldn't be helped.
"The artist made it taller than was originally envisioned," she said of the work approved by the city more than three years ago. "Now it's more like a sail, and in the Texas wind, that could be a problem. So the foundation has to be redesigned, and that meant a delay."
Since it's been so long, here's a reminder of how the city describes the tribute: "The proposed sculpture consists of four corten steel framed screens with images of Stevie Ray and Jimmie Vaughan cut into the metal. Each panel will show images of the Vaughan Brothers' lives, including photos/stills of both brothers and their song lyrics."

And on his website, Solano even gives it a name: We Are Music & Music Is Us.
Kay Kallos, who oversees Dallas' public art, said originally Solano's piece was to be 8 feet tall; now, it's closer to 10. And, she said, the state requires the work to withstand winds of up to 90 mph. That necessitated re-engineering the foundation.
"It got bigger and better," said Scripps of the artwork that will stand only a few blocks from where Stevie and big brother Jimmie grew up on Glenfield Avenue. "And that has meant it won't be done this year."
Back in May 2018, filmmaker Kirby Warnock, who helped raise the $68,000 needed to build and maintain the artwork, said it would be ready for planting in the fall of that year. But Kallos said the project, which also cost $74,000 in bond dollars, was always meant for a December 2019 unveiling.
Well … until a couple of weeks ago.

Scripps said Wednesday she's asked frequently when the sculpture will arrive. Kallos said in a separate interview she's "in daily conversations with Kirby Warnock to keep him up to date," as he helped fund it and stayed with this project long after others gave up.
But as far as Kallos is concerned, the new date works out just fine: Jimmie Vaughan's birthday is March 20, when he turns 69. Said Kallos, "That's the date Jimmie requested."

TONIGHT'S GAME
SABRES at PANTHERS
This is the fourth and final meeting between the Sabres and Panthers this season.
Last meeting: Buffalo defeated Florida 4-3 in Buffalo on Jan. 3.
The Sabres are 2-6-2 in their last 10 games vs. the Panthers; 1-7-1 on the road.
This is the 100th game all-time between Buffalo and Florida; Buffalo has a 49-41-9 series record.
The Sabres are 21-22-5 on the road against the Panthers all-time.
THIS DATE IN SABRES HISTORY
The Sabres are 13-10-2 all-time on February 19.
February 19, 1984: Dave Andreychuk records his 100th NHL point and Bill Hajt scores the 4,000th goal in franchise history in a 5-2 win vs. Hartford.
February 19, 1991: Christian Ruuttu scores the 6,000th goal in franchise history.
The Sabres are seeking their first win at Florida since Nov. 12, 2015. A win tonight would give them wins in consecutive matchups with the Panthers for the first time since they won three straight in 2011.
Sam Reinhart has 17 points (9+8) in 16 career games against the Panthers, including six multi-point games and points in each of the last six meetings (4+5). His 1.06 points per game against Florida represent his best per-game output against any NHL team.
Jeff Skinner has recorded 10 points (8+2) in his last eight games against Florida.
Conor Sheary has totaled eight points (2+6) in seven games against the Panthers since the beginning of the 2016-17 season.
Carter Hutton is 2-1-0 in four career appearances against the Panthers with a .933 save percentage and a 2.03 goals-against average.
The Panthers join the Canadiens as one of two opponents Jack Eichel has yet to score a goal against. Eichel has recorded 13 points (3+10) in his last 12 games entering tonight's contest.
Jeff Skinner has totaled eight points (5+3) in his last eight games.
Zemgus Girgensons is expected to appear in his 400th NHL game tonight.
Jack Eichel and Jeff Skinner have both recorded a point on the same goal 27 times this season, making them the most productive Sabres duo since Jason Pominville and Thomas Vanek combined on 39 goals in the 2011-12 season.
At least one of the two has recorded a point on 88 of the team's 164 goals this season (53.7%).
SKINNER, SKINNER, CHICKEN DINNER
Jeff Skinner, who scored his 35th and 36th goals of the season on Friday vs. NY Rangers, is now the first Sabres player to score 35 or more goals since Thomas Vanek scored 40 during the 2008-09 season.
It was Skinner's eighth multi-goal game of the season, tying his previous career high (2016-17). He is the first player to record at least eight multi-goal games in a season for Buffalo since Vanek recorded 10 in 2008-09.
JACK ATTACK
Jack Eichel recorded his 44th assist of the season on Sunday vs. New Jersey. He is the first Sabres player to record at least 44 assists in a season since Tim Connolly recorded 48 in 2009-10.
Entering play Monday, Eichel's 43 assists tied for 12th-most in the league and his 32 even-strength assists ranked 10th.
Eichel is currently on pace for 46 even-strength assists this season. Only five different players have recorded at least 45 even-strength assists since the 2005-06 season: Henrik Sedin (3x), Joe Thornton (3x), Connor McDavid (2x), Evgeni Malkin and Michael Nylander. Pat Lafontaine (52 in 1992-93) is the only player in franchise history to record at least 45 in a season.
RISING IN THE RECORD BOOKS
Jason Pominville is expected to appear in his 713th regular-season game with the Sabres tonight, which would pass Alexei Zhitnik for sole possession of eighth-most regular-season games played by a Sabre.
With a goal on Feb. 7 vs. Carolina, Jason Pominville moved past Mike Foligno into eighth place in franchise history with his 512th point as a member of the Sabres. He currently trails Don Luce by 12 points for seventh-most.
Pominville is also just two goals from tying Luce for 10th-most goals in Sabres history and 10 assists behind Luce for seventh-most in franchise history.
DAH-LEAN ON ME
Entering play Monday, Rasmus Dahlin led rookie defensemen and ranked second among all NHL rookies with in both points (32) and assists (26).
With 32 points (6+26) through 58 games, Dahlin is scoring at a higher rate than he did in the Swedish Hockey League last season, when he totaled 20 points (7+13) in 41 games for Frölunda.
Dahlin's current point total puts him on pace for 45 points this season. It would trail only Phil Housley (57 points in 1982-83) for the most ever recorded by a defenseman before his 19th birthday.
With six multi-point games so far this season, Dahlin has recorded more multi-point games as an 18-year-old than all but two defensemen in NHL history: Phil Housley (13) and Bobby Orr (8).
SAM I AM
Sam Reinhart has already set career-high totals in points (51), assists (37) and multi-point games (15) this season. The Sabres are 20-10-5 this season when Reinhart records at least one point and 29-4-7 (.813) in his career when he records at least two.
All three of the Sabres' top three scorers are currently on pace to shatter their previous personal bests in points on the strength of career-best production at even strength:
Player/Season GP G A PTS ES G ES A ES P
Eichel Career High (2017-18) 67 25 39 64 22 20 42
Eichel 2018-19 55 18 44 62 14 32 46
Eichel 2018-19 (Pace) 79 26 63 89 20 46 66
Skinner Career High (2016-17) 79 37 26 63 30 18 48
Skinner 2018-19 58 36 17 53 28 13 41
Skinner 2018-19 (Pace) 82 51 24 75 40 18 58
Reinhart Career High (2017-18) 82 25 25 50 13 16 29
Reinhart 2018-19 58 14 37 51 13 27 40
Reinhart 2018-19 (Pace) 82 20 52 72 18 38 57
At his current pace, Jack Eichel would finish the season with the fifth-most even-strength points ever recorded by a Sabre, trailing only Pat LaFontaine (83) and Alexander Mogilny (78) in 1992-93, and Gilbert Perreault in 1975-76 (70) and 1979-80 (68).
Eichel is one point off of the pace to become the first Sabres player to record at least 90 points since Daniel Briere (95) in 2006-07 and would trail only LaFontaine's franchise-record 52 even-strength assists in 1992-93.
Jeff Skinner is on pace to log the seventh 50-goal season in Sabres history and the first since 1992-93 (Mogilny and LaFontaine). His 40 even-strength goals would be the fourth-most in team history behind only Mogilny's even-strength total from 1992-93 (49), Rick Martin's 44 in 1973-74 and Danny Gare's 41 in 1975-76.
SCORING WHEN IT COUNTS
Jeff Skinner's seven game-winning goals tied for second-most in the NHL this season entering play Monday. He is the first Sabres player with at least seven game-winners in a season since Derek Roy (9) in 2008-09 and is four shy of matching the single-season franchise record of 11 shared by Danny Gare (1979-80) and Alexander Mogilny (1992-93).
Skinner was also tied for third in the league with three overtime goals this season. Skinner's total matches the Sabres' single-season record shared by Daniel Briere (2006-07) and Derek Roy (2009-10) and ties him for 10th-most career overtime goals in franchise history.
SABRES AMONG LEAGUE-LEADERS (Sabres' league rankings before 2/18 games)
Buffalo Sabres: 81.7% PK% (10th)
Eichel: 2 OTG (T-8th), 215 S (10th), 32 EVA (10th)

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Read with Jenna Book Club Pick as Featured on Today - From the author of Carrie Soto Is Back, Daisy Jones & The Six, and The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo . . .
"Irresistible . . . High drama at the beach, starring four sexy, surfing siblings and their deadbeat, famous-crooner dad."--People
ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The Washington Post, Time, Marie Claire, PopSugar, Parade, Teen Vogue, Self, She Reads
Four famous siblings throw an epic party to celebrate the end of the summer. But over the course of twenty-four hours, the family drama that ensues will change their lives forever.
Malibu: August 1983. It's the day of Nina Riva's annual end-of-summer party, and anticipation is at a fever pitch. Everyone wants to be around the famous Rivas: Nina, the talented surfer and supermodel; brothers Jay and Hud, one a championship surfer, the other a renowned photographer; and their adored baby sister, Kit. Together the siblings are a source of fascination in Malibu and the world over--especially as the offspring of the legendary singer Mick Riva.
The only person not looking forward to the party of the year is Nina herself, who never wanted to be the center of attention, and who has also just been very publicly abandoned by her pro tennis player husband. Oh, and maybe Hud--because it is long past time for him to confess something to the brother from whom he's been inseparable since birth.
Jay, on the other hand, is counting the minutes until nightfall, when the girl he can't stop thinking about promised she'll be there.
And Kit has a couple secrets of her own--including a guest she invited without consulting anyone.
By midnight the party will be completely out of control. By morning, the Riva mansion will have gone up in flames. But before that first spark in the early hours before dawn, the alcohol will flow, the music will play, and the loves and secrets that shaped this family's generations will all come rising to the surface.
Malibu Rising is a story about one unforgettable night in the life of a family: the night they each have to choose what they will keep from the people who made them . . . and what they will leave behind.
Taylor Jenkins Reid is the New York Times bestselling author of eight novels, including Carrie Soto Is Back, Malibu Rising, Daisy Jones & The Six, and The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband and their daughter.
"It's 1983 in Malibu, and the famous Riva siblings are hosting their annual end-of-summer party--a legendary affair. By morning, the house is in flames, a blaze fueled by smoldering secrets and long-simmering drama. [Taylor Jenkins] Reid has once again crafted a fast-paced, engaging novel that smoothly transports readers between decades and story lines."--The Washington Post
"Reid unfurls a fast-paced and addictive story. . . . This page-turning indulgence hits the spot."--Publishers Weekly

"Stylish and propulsive."--The New York Times Book Review

"Will transport you to another place and time . . . [Reid is] an author with a gift for storytelling."--Associated Press
Praise for The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo

This is my tomato plant for 2009. I get one each year. And then I proceed to name them. I've had a Fransicso, Jose, and Pierre. I like to alternate through heritages. It makes me feel as though I'm more cultured and gives the allure that I take tea and biscuits everyday in the sitting room. I really just like to name things though. I've never quite figured out why, but I feel as though inanimate objects become more life-like if they possess a human name. Kinda like…transformers in disguise.
This year I could not come up with a name so I suggested Jon Doe. My husband added on the DoeMato and I laughed like a pre-pubescent little boy who had just learned about girl parts. From there it stuck.
Normally, I plant my annual tomato in a special pot that I tend to individually, but the last few years I've ended up with tomatos that look shitfaced, so this year I gave up and dug a nice hole in the dirt for Jon. To my shock he sprouted faster than a college frat boy and has even outgrown his dancing cage. Perhaps the winter months where outdoor cats played poop and seek in my garden have done wonders for my plants. Now, can I slice you up a fresh tomato?
