YAGP 2015 FINALS!!!
Home BlogYAGP 2015 FINALS!!!
Posted by	Natasha Brooksher Blog, Editorial	2 Comments
We made it to NY, the big apple, for the YAGP 2015 Finals!
Each year, YAGP holds regional level competitions all over the United States, and around the world, auditioning thousands of amateur dancers between the ages of 9 to 19. The competition is fierce, and the level of technical and artistic accomplishment is at the highest, world-class level.
This is the final week of competitions, where hundreds of students from across the globe convene in NYC. Thousands of dollars in scholarships from the most prestigious schools and companies in the world will be awarded, as well as professional employment contracts for the senior division students. Making it to the final rounds in NY is a huge accomplishment—only 10% of all YAGP regional participants and video applications even make it that far….making it into the top 10 is a great achievement….receiving an award or scholarship is the first step to a rewarding and successful, lifelong career.
Brooksher Ballet's own Emily Garner is one of the 10%…..one of those few selected to compete in the final rounds in NY. She competed against about 30 other youngsters between the ages of 9-11 who were selected from around the world in the Pre-Competitive Division. In addition to the competition, she will take master classes with some of the most influential directors, teachers and choreographers, all who are looking for the next crop of rising talent to nurture, and to open doors of opportunity.
Emily's day of competition started with competitor warm up class at 11, free onstage time at 1:30, and then onstage for the real deal at about 2:30. Just one variation. Eight months of preparation for one minute on the stage….but that one minute can change her life!
I think back to when we started our plan back in September, and we sat down with several students (and their parents) to whom Josh and I had selected to offer this opportunity. Of about 10, only 3 agreed to commit to the time and effort that we outlined would be necessary: Emily Garner, Emily Marvin and Sophia Benyamin. Of those three, only Emily Marvin had previously danced en pointe—both Emily G. and Sophia had just been fit for their first pair of pointe shoes, and had one or two lessons by then. Their parents were doubtful that they would be ready to compete en pointe in a classical variation, but they put their trust in us…..and Josh and I are probably the only ones crazy enough to put such a big goal in front of us all! But the girls were eager to do the work, and excited about where we said it could lead. In January, we went to the first of three regional competitions…..over the course of which, all three girls made it into the top 12 of their divisions, of about 100 or so students in each division for each of the regional events. Emily G. made it all the way to NY.
And so here we are! Emily danced very well….she was lovely in her variation from Flower Festival. Many in her group competed their variations in soft slippers, where she danced beautifully en pointe. We won't know the final results until the middle of the week at the awards ceremony after all the final rounds for all the divisions are completed. But no matter what the result…Emily, and all our YAGP girls, have grown so much over the last eight months, improving and maturing right before our eyes. We look forward to the future with you, as you all hold so much promise. We relish the chance to help you achieve your dreams, and thank you for the honor of helping you get there.

Have I found a good teacher?
There are a great many ingredients needed for the development of a successful dance artist, but among the most important is a teacher and mentor who knows how to bring varying aspects of training together in a systematic method. The search for a teacher...
It's the Connecting Steps… that connect us.
"One of the most prevalent defining attributes of a great artist is technical accomplishment…nothing extra, nothing except the purity of their command of their chosen language of expression.... these individuals possess a total and utter mastery of physical form and artistic expression. "
Congrats NACB Students!!!
Brooksher Ballet is super proud of our Advanced level students.[...]
Congratulations Emily! I am so proud of you!
Thank you to Josh and Natasha Brooksher who coached my lovely daughter throughout this amazing, life changing process. Though there were many tears of pain, sleeplessness and accomplishment I would do it all over again in a heartbeat!!

Birth 26 January 1987, Turin, Province of Turin, Piedmont, Italy
Star sign Aquarius
Sebastian Giovinco (Italian pronunciation: [seˈbastjan dʒoˈviŋko]; born 26 January 1987) is an Italian professional footballer who plays for Canadian club Toronto FC, and the Italian national team as a forward. A creative player on the ball, with excellent vision and technical skill, he is a free kick specialist and capable of playing in several offensive positions. Due to his short stature, dynamic abilities and pace, Giovinco acquired the nickname formica atomica ("atomic ant," after the eponymous Hanna-Barbera character) in his youth. In 2015, he was named one of the 100 best footballers in the world by The Guardian, FourFourTwo, and L'Équipe.
Giovinco began his professional footballing career with Italian club Juventus in Serie B in 2006, where he was promoted to the first team after his success with the club's youth squad; in his first season, he helped the senior side win the title and earn promotion to Serie A, establishing himself as a promising prospect in the number 10 role. After struggling to break into the starting line-up however, he spent successful stints on loan with Italian clubs Empoli and Parma, where he matured as a player, before earning a move back to Juventus in 2012. Upon his return to the Turin club, he won two consecutive league titles, but once again struggled to maintain a spot in the team's starting eleven, resulting in a high-profile move to MLS side Toronto FC in January 2015, in a deal which made him the league's highest paid player. After joining the Canadian club, he soon established himself as one of the best players in the MLS: he broke the league's record for most combined goals and assists in a single season during his first year with the club, also helping Toronto to qualify for the MLS Cup Playoffs for the first time in the club's history, and winning himself the MLS Golden Boot, the MLS Newcomer of the Year Award, and the MLS MVP Award. The following season, he won his first title with Toronto, the 2016 Canadian Championship, and became the club's all-time top goalscorer, helping the club to qualify for the Playoffs once again, reaching the MLS Cup Final.
At international level, Giovinco has represented Italy at all levels since first being called up by the under-16 side in 2003; at youth level, he took part at the 2008 Summer Olympics with the Italian under-23 side, and later helped the Italy under-21 side to the semi-finals of the 2009 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship. He made his debut with the Italy senior side in 2011, and he later took part at UEFA Euro 2012; winning a runners-up medal, and at the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup; winning a bronze medal, and also scoring his first international goal during the tournament.
Giovinco was born in Turin to a Sicilian father, Giovanni, originally from Bisacquino in the province of Palermo, and a Calabrian mother, Elvira, originally from Catanzaro, who moved from Southern Italy. He grew up in Beinasco, a comune southwest of the city, in a family of Milan fans, and joined the Juventus youth system in 1996, when he was nine. His younger brother Giuseppe was also part of the Juventus Youth Academy and currently plays in Lega Pro.
Club career
Youth career and professional debut with Juventus
After joining the Juventus youth system, Giovinco flourished through the ranks of the club and impressed especially during the 2005–06 season, winning the Campionato Primavera, as well as the Coppa Italia and Supercoppa Primavera, and also reaching the final at the Viareggio Tournament, where he was named best player of the competition.
Giovinco was promoted to the first team during the 2006–07 season and also played his last season in the Primavera squad. His professional debut came on 12 May 2007, in the Serie B match against Bologna; he came on as a substitute in place of Raffaele Palladino, and marked his first appearance with an assist for David Trezeguet's tap-in. Since then, he had been tipped to be Alessandro Del Piero's heir in the creative number 10 role behind the main striker, known as the trequartista, rifinitore, or fantasista, in Italian. Juventus won the Serie B title that season, earning promotion to Serie A the following season.
Loan at Empoli
On 4 July 2007, Giovinco was loaned out to Empoli. He made his Serie A debut on 26 August, coming on as a substitute against Fiorentina. Giovinco scored his first Serie A goal on 30 September against Palermo in a 3–1 win. He made his European debut in the UEFA Cup on 4 October against Zürich. Giovinco finished his first season in Serie A with 6 goals in 35 appearances, and was given the Leone d'Argento award, by the club. Despite Giovinco's promising performances, Empoli were unable to avoid relegation, and he returned to Juventus at the end of the season.
Second spell with Juventus
On 26 June 2008, Giovinco officially returned to Juventus. Giovinco played his first Serie A match for Juventus on 24 September, against Catania, before assisting both goals for Vincenzo Iaquinta in the 2–2 draw with BATE Borisov in the Champions League on 30 September, his first start for the club. On 7 December, he scored his first goal for Juventus, a free kick against Lecce in a 2–1 win. In October 2008, he signed a contract extension, tying him to Juventus until the summer of 2013.
Despite a promising start, Giovinco did not play regularly and made sporadic appearances throughout the season, both in the starting eleven and off the bench, as he struggled to fit into Claudio Ranieri's preferred 4–4–2 formation. The following season, when the club's new manager, Ciro Ferrara, was forced into a tactical switch due to injuries to first choice midfielders, Mauro Camoranesi and Claudio Marchisio, Giovinco was variously inserted into the starting line-up; he helped Juventus to a 5–1 defeat of Sampdoria in only his fourth start of the season. Under the following manager, Alberto Zaccheroni, he was hardly featured. In April, he sustained a training ground injury and was ruled out for the rest of the season after undergoing tests.
Loan to Parma
On 5 August 2010, Parma announced the signing of Giovinco on loan from Juventus, with an option to buy half of the player's transfer rights at the end of the season. He made his Parma debut against Brescia in a 2–0 win on 29 August. He scored his first goal for Parma on 12 September 2010, a free kick in a 2–1 loss to Catania. An impressive start to the season earned Giovinco a call up to represent the Italian national team. On 6 January 2011, Giovinco scored two goals for Parma in a 4–1 win against his parent club, Juventus. After initially struggling to settle-in at Parma, he refound his form towards the end of the season and made his break-through with the club, finishing his first season at the club with 7 goals in 30 appearances in the league. At the end of the season, on 22 June 2011, Parma exercised the option to buy half of Giovinco's contract for a fee of €3 million.
On September 11, the first match of the 2011–12 season Giovinco scored against Juventus once again, where he found the net from a penalty in a 4–1 away defeat. On 6 May, he scored a volley from 30 yards out against Siena in the penultimate match of the season of a 2–0 away win. In his second season with Parma, Giovinco finished as the club's leading goalscorer (15) and assist provider (11) in Serie A, helping the team to an eighth-place finish in the league; in total, he made 70 appearances during his two seasons with the club, scoring 23 goals, and providing 22 assists.
Return to Juventus
Giovinco playing for Juventus in the 2012–13 season.
On 21 June 2012, Juventus announced that it had purchased the other half of Giovinco's transfer rights from Parma for €11 million, tying him to the Turin club until 30 June 2015. Although he had stated that he would have been pleased to wear the number 10 shirt, which was vacated after Juventus legend Alessandro Del Piero left the club, Giovinco was handed the number 12 jersey under manager Antonio Conte. On 11 August 2012, Giovinco won his first title with Juventus, helping the team to defeat Napoli 4–2 in the 2012 Supercoppa Italiana. Giovinco started in the first league match of the 2012–13 season against his former club, Parma; Juventus won the match 2–0, although Giovinco suffered a minor injury two minutes from the end of the game. In the following league match against Udinese on 2 September, Giovinco scored two goals and won a penalty, which was converted by Chilean teammate Arturo Vidal, as Juventus went on to defeat the Friuli team 4–1 in Udine.
Giovinco scored his first career UEFA Champions League goal against FC Nordsjælland on 7 November, a match which Juventus won 4–0 at Juventus Stadium. He scored the third goal as Juventus beat defending champions Chelsea 3–0 at home, and also contributed to Juventus' 1–0 away win against Shakhtar Donetsk, which allowed Juventus to top their group undefeated and advance to the knockout stages for first time since the 2008–09 tournament. On 1 December, Giovinco scored his fifth league goal of the season in the Derby della Mole against Torino, also recording an assist on one of Claudio Marchisio's two goals in a 3–0 victory at home. Giovinco scored the only goal of the match in a Coppa Italia 1–0 win against Cagliari, allowing Juventus to progress to the quarter-finals of the competition. Juventus eventually managed to retain their Serie A title that season, with Giovinco managing 7 goals in the league, and 11 in total in all competitions, as Juventus reached the quarter-finals of the 2012–13 UEFA Champions League, and the semi-finals of the 2012–13 Coppa Italia, only to lose out to the winners of the respective competitions, Bayern Munich and Lazio.
Giovinco missed out on Juventus's 2013 Supercoppa Italiana victory, and he initially went scoreless in the 2013–14 season until finally netting a notable goal in a 3–2 win over rivals Milan on the 6 October 2013. Giovinco fell out of form again and struggled to gain playing time, but he managed to break his goal drought on 14 April 2014, with a goal against Udinese, taking the ball past a defender and scoring with a left footed curling shot from outside the box. Overall, Giovinco managed 2 goals in 17 Serie A appearances that season, and one goal in the Coppa Italia, as Juventus won their third consecutive Serie A title. During the 2014–15 season under Massimiliano Allegri, Giovinco scored two goals in a 6–1 win over Hellas Verona in the Coppa Italia, on 15 January 2015, helping Juventus to the quarter-finals of the competition; both of his goals came in the first half, with the first coming from a free kick, and the second in injury time.
Giovinco playing for Toronto FC during the 2015 MLS season.
On 19 January 2015, Giovinco signed with Canadian team Toronto FC of Major League Soccer (MLS). He was set to join the team upon the completion of the Serie A season in July 2015. He signed a five-year contract with a reported annual salary of $7 million, making him the highest paid player in MLS ahead of Orlando City SC's Kaká, and the highest paid Italian player in all leagues until the arrival of Andrea Pirlo to New York City FC later that year. On 2 February, Juventus announced that Giovinco had left the club five months earlier than originally expected in order to kick-start his career in MLS with Toronto FC. Giovinco made his debut for Toronto FC against Vancouver Whitecaps on 7 March. He provided an assist for Jozy Altidore's equalising goal in the 32nd minute. He scored his first goal for Toronto FC on 4 April, in a 3–2 loss to Chicago Fire, also later setting up Benoît Cheyrou's goal. On 13 May, Giovinco scored and assisted a goal in a 3–2 home win over Montreal Impact in the return leg of the 2015 Canadian Championship semi-finals, although Montreal progressed to the final on away goals, having won the home leg 1–0. After setting up two goals in TFC's 3–1 home win over San José on 30 May, Giovinco was voted Major League Soccer Player of the Week by the North American Soccer Reporters, for week 13 of the 2015 MLS season. Following his two goals in Toronto FC's 2–1 away win over D.C. United, he was named MLS Player of the Week for a second consecutive time the following week.
On 12 July 2015, Giovinco achieved Toronto FC's first ever hat-trick in MLS play against New York City FC in a 4–4 draw at Yankee Stadium, and set up the fourth goal during the match, also missing a penalty. It was also the third fastest hat trick scored in the league's history at 9 minutes. Following the match, he received the player of the week award for the third time in the 2015 MLS season. After scoring and assisting in a 2–1 home win over Philadelphia Union on 18 July 2015, Giovinco was one of the 22 players to be named to the 2015 MLS All-Star Game roster, although he was later ruled out of the match due to injury, and replaced by his team-mate Altidore. On 5 August 2015, Giovinco scored a hat-trick in a 4–1 home win over Orlando City to bring him to the top of the MLS scoring tables with 16 goals, also breaking the club's single-season record of 15 goals set in 2010 by Dwayne De Rosario in the process. On 6 August 2015, he was named the Etihad Airways MLS Player of the Month for July 2015. On 14 August 2015, Giovinco's free kick goal against Orlando City was awarded the MLS Goal of the Week Award. On 29 August 2015, he was substituted in the 51st minute in a 2–1 win over Montreal Impact due to an adductor strain; although it was reported that the injury was not serious, he was ruled out indefinitely. On 3 September 2015, he was named the MLS Player of the Month for August, winning the award for a second consecutive time. He returned to the starting line-up in Toronto's 3–1 home defeat to the New England Revolution ten days later.
On 26 September, Giovinco broke the MLS single-season points record for combined goals and assists, previously held by Chris Wondolowski, with his 15th and 16th assists of the season in a 3–2 home win over Chicago, bringing his total points tally to 35. Upon review the following day, Jonathan Osorio's goal from a Giovinco "cross" was later credited as Giovinco's goal by the MLS, which meant that he broke another record, by becoming the first player to manage at least 20 goals and 10 assists in a single MLS season, as his 16th assist was changed to his 20th goal.
On 14 October, after coming off the bench, he scored the decisive goal in a 2–1 home win over New York Red Bulls, when he started a dribbling run past several players on the left flank, which culminated in a left-footed strike just inside the area; the win allowed Toronto FC to qualify for the MLS playoffs for the first time in their history. This goal was later nominated as a finalist for the MLS Goal of the Year Award, but was beaten out by Krisztián Németh. Several pundits praised his performances, expressing the opinion that this goal was the best goal of the season, and the greatest in Toronto FC's club history. The pundits also praised Giovinco as arguably not only one of the top players of the current MLS season, but also already as one of the greatest players in MLS history. Giovinco had just returned from international duty earlier that day, having appeared for Italy the day before in a Euro 2016 qualifying match in Rome. On 25 October 2015, Giovinco assisted Altidore in a 2–1 away defeat to Montreal in the final match of the regular season, ending the regular season with 22 goals and 16 assists, which allowed him to win the 2015 Audi MLS Golden Boot as both the joint top-scorer (alongside Kei Kamara) and the top-assist provider of the league in his first year with the club, with a record 38 points; as a result, he became the first MLS player ever to win both the top scorer and the top assist provider awards in the same season, as well as the first Italian and Toronto FC player to win these awards. In the playoffs, Toronto were eliminated in the knock-out round, following a 3–0 away defeat to domestic rivals Montreal Impact on 29 October. In November 2015, Giovinco was named one of the three finalists for both the 2015 MLS Newcomer of the Year Award and the 2015 MLS MVP Award, winning both awards on 23 November and 2 December respectively, while three days before the latter, on 29 November, he was named to the MLS Best XI. On 30 December, Giovinco was named the "Transaction of the Year" by MLS.
Giovinco started off his second season with an 82nd-minute penalty in a 2–0 away win over Supporters' Shield holders New York Red Bulls, on 6 March; he later also set up Marco Delgado's goal in added time. On 16 April, he scored the fastest goal in Toronto FC history at 57 seconds in a 1–0 away win over D.C. United, surpassing the previous record holder Reggie Lambe's by one minute and 50 seconds set in 2012. A week later, he scored both goals in a 2–0 win away to the Montreal Impact in the 401 Derby; with these goals, he equalled De Rosario as the club's all-time top scorer in the MLS with 28 goals in 40 appearances. Giovinco was named to the Team of the Week for his performances. On 7 May, Toronto's home opener, he set up rookie Tsubasa Endoh for his first ever MLS goal in a 1–0 win over FC Dallas, at the newly renovated BMO Field. On 14 May, Giovinco overtook De Rosario as the club's outright all-time top scorer in the MLS, scoring two goals and setting up another in a 4–3 home defeat to Canadian rivals Vancouver. On 29 June, Giovinco helped Toronto win the Canadian Championship over Vancouver 2–2 on aggregate, winning on away goals, as he scored the only goal in the first leg on 21 June. On 14 July, he won the 2016 Best MLS Player ESPY Award. In July 2016, Giovinco was included in the roster for the 2016 MLS All-Star Game.
After an eight-game goal drought, Giovinco scored a hat-trick against D.C. United, on 23 July, in a 4–1 home win, also surpassing De Rosario's previous all-time record as Toronto FC's top scorer by two goals to 35 goals. With two goals from free kicks during the match, including his seventh in the MLS, he broke David Beckham's record for most goals from set-pieces in the league since 2010. He was named to the Team of the Week once again for his performances, and was also named MLS Player of the Week for the first time that season. On 27 August, Giovinco was brought off the field after the later diagnosis of strains in his quadriceps and adductor in the eventual 1–0 loss in the 401 Derby with Montreal at home; although he was initially expected to be sidelined for a month, the injury was more severe than expected, and he ended up missing seven weeks of play. He finally returned to action on 16 October, against Montreal once again, helping to set up Toronto's equaliser in a 2–2 away draw. On 26 October, Giovinco scored the opening goal of a 3–1 home win over Philadelphia, both his and Toronto FC's first MLS Playoff goal in the MLS Cup Playoffs, and was later involved in his team's next two goals; this was Toronto's first ever playoff win, which enabled the team to progress to the Eastern Conference Semi-finals for the first time. On 6 November in the second leg of the Eastern Conference Semi-finals, Giovinco scored a hat-trick in a 5–0 away win over New York City FC, 7–0 on aggregate, to progress to the Eastern Conference Finals in an all Canadian derby against Montreal Impact. In the first leg of the Eastern Conference Final on 22 November, Giovinco set up Jozy Altidore's goal in a 3–2 away loss to Montreal. Toronto later beat Montreal 5–2 in extra time in the return leg at home on 30 November, as Giovinco once again set up Altidore's goal, winning on an aggregated score of 7–5, making Toronto FC the first Canadian team to compete in an MLS Cup Final; although he was forced off in the 97th minute due to cramp in his calf, he was later declared fit to play against Seattle Sounders in the 2016 MLS Cup Final. On 5 December, he was named to the MLS Best XI for the second season in a row, despite being left off the finalists list for the MLS MVP.
In the 2016 MLS Cup Final against Seattle, held at BMO Field on 10 December, Giovinco's performance was largely stifled by Seattle's heavy and aggressive defending, despite initially creating an early goalscoring chance for Altidore; throughout the match, he was fouled a total of six times and had several shots blocked. A scoring opportunity came in the 48th minute, but his shot was skewed wide of the near post. He was eventually substituted for Tosaint Ricketts in the 103rd minute, due to an apparent injury, and consequently, despite being the club's main penalty kick taker, was not used in the resulting shoot-out, which Toronto lost 5–4, following a 0–0 draw after extra-time. Regarding Giovinco's surprising substitution, Toronto's coach, Greg Vanney, stated in the post-match press conference: "He couldn't move. He looked at me. It's not like I take him off because I want to. I look at him and he gives me the sign that he can't go any more and when he feels like he can't go, he feels like he's more of a liability to the group than anything. That's the decision. It's not one that I generally want to make, but we had to."
Giovinco scored his first goal of the season in a 2–2 home draw to expansion team Atlanta United, on 8 April.
Youth career
Giovinco has represented Italy at every youth level from the under-16 level onwards. He was called up to Italy under-21 by head coach Pierluigi Casiraghi to make his U-21 debut in the 2009 European Championship opening qualifier on 1 June 2007 and helped in their 4–0 defeat of Albania.
Giovinco (furthest right) lining up at the 2008 Toulon Tournament.
He also played at the 2008 Toulon Tournament, where he was voted most valuable player, scoring two goals in the opening game against the Ivory Coast, and netting the winning penalty in the semi-final match against Japan. Italy ultimately won the competition, defeating Chile 1–0 in the final. That summer, he and Juventus teammates Claudio Marchisio and Paolo De Ceglie were named in the squad for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, China. On 7 August 2008, he scored the opening goal in a 3–0 win against Honduras in the first match of the competition where he struck the ball from outside of the box with his weaker left foot.
In the summer of 2009, Giovinco was called up to the U-21 side for the European Championships in Sweden after playing a part in their successful qualifying campaign. Giovinco started in every single match at the tournament, but Italy lost to eventual winners Germany 1–0 in a tightly contested semi-final.
Senior debut, Euro 2012 and 2013 Confederations Cup
He was called up for the first time in nearly two years while on loan at Parma, and made his senior team debut on 9 February 2011, in the friendly game played against Germany in Dortmund, which ended in a 1–1 draw. In his second international appearance, against Ukraine, he provided an assist from a back-heel for Alessandro Matri's goal as Italy won the match 2–0 in Kiev. After some promising substitute appearances, manager Cesare Prandelli stated that he would give Giovinco his full debut as a starter alongside Antonio Cassano.
Giovinco playing for Italy in 2012.
Giovinco was named part of Italy's 23-man squad for UEFA Euro 2012. Giovinco appeared as a substitute in the two opening group matches of the tournament against Spain and Croatia, almost assisting a goal against Spain in the opening match, as the earlier goalscorer Antonio Di Natale put his lobbed pass over the bar. Italy finished as runners up to Spain in the final in a heavy 4–0 loss.
Giovinco started in the first game of Italy's 2014 World Cup Qualification campaign against Bulgaria in Sofia, wearing the jersey number 10; the match ended in a 2–2 draw. He scored his first goal for Italy in the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup group stage match against Japan, wearing the number 10 shirt, and ensuring a 4–3 win, which allowed Italy to progress to the semi-finals. In the semi-finals, Giovinco came on during the second half of extra time; the match ended 0–0 and went to penalties as Giovinco netted his penalty for Italy, however, Spain won 7–6 due to Leonardo Bonucci's miss. Italy subsequently won the bronze medal match against Uruguay, also on penalties, after the match had ended 2–2 after extra time. Due to the lack of playing time during the 2013–14 season, Giovinco missed out on the 2014 World Cup and was not named in the provisional nor the final squad.
In October 2014, Giovinco was called up by the new Italy manager, and his former Juventus manager, Antonio Conte, for an UEFA Euro 2016 qualifying match against Azerbaijan in Palermo, which Italy won 2–1 on 10 October. Giovinco came on during the second half, and he helped set up Giorgio Chiellini's second, match-winning goal, also hitting the cross-bar towards the end of the match, from a strike outside the area, after an individual dribbling run.
Following his strong performances for MLS side Toronto FC, Giovinco was called up to the national team once again in August 2015 for Italy's Euro 2016 qualifying matches against Malta and Bulgaria in September, and was set to become the first MLS player to represent Italy. He was ultimately ruled out of both matches after sustaining an adductor injury against Montreal Impact, and New York City FC's Andrea Pirlo became the first MLS player to play for Italy, during the same qualifiers. In October 2015, he was named to the Italian national team for the UEFA Euro 2016 qualifiers against Azerbaijan and Norway on 10 and 13 October. He made a substitute appearance in Italy's 3–1 away win over Azerbaijan, which guaranteed the Italians a place at Euro 2016; he came on in the 79th minute and later hit the cross-bar from a free kick after being fouled by Badavi Guseynov, who was subsequently sent off. On 13 October, he came off of the bench once again and was involved in both goals as Italy came from behind to defeat Norway 2–1 in Rome, and top their group. On 23 May 2016, Giovinco, along with fellow MLS compatriot Pirlo, was left off of Conte's 30-player shortlist for Italy's Euro 2016 squad; regarding their omission, Conte commented in a press conference, "When you make a certain choice and go to play in certain leagues, you do so taking it into account that they could pay the consequences from a footballing viewpoint". In response to his omission, Giovinco stated, "I was upset. I need to keep improving so I can find my place back on the national team; I've said before, the league is continuing to grow and it's a beautiful league."
Giovinco with Juventus in 2012.
Giovinco is a small, quick, technically gifted, and agile player, with noted dribbling skills, balance, acceleration, and excellent ball control; these characteristics allow him to beat opponents, hold up the ball with his back to goal or in tight spaces, and create space or chances for team-mates, despite his lack of strong physical attributes. Although he is capable of scoring goals, he also possesses notable playmaking skills, and he is known for his vision, creativity, and his passing and striking ability with both feet, despite being naturally right footed, as well as his accuracy and ball delivery from free kicks. Giovinco is capable of playing in several offensive positions, and he is usually deployed in a free role as a second striker, although he is also capable of playing as a winger, on either flank, or in the centre as a creative attacking midfielder; he has also been used in a more offensive, central role as a main striker.
In May 2013, Sebastian and his partner Shari celebrated the birth of their first child, Jacopo.
Giovinco features in EA Sports' FIFA video game series; he appeared on the cover of the MLS custom edition of FIFA 16.

Nothing else for me I don't think but I may have missed others like RE2.
No Borderlands 3. E3 is a write-off.
I very much doubt it, Starfield is next up and I who knows when that'll get here.
I wouldn't put any money on it, but I reckon we'll see it 2021 perhaps?
BGS said Starfield, that is in production, will be out for next gen consoles. What's that? 2-3 years.
Don't reckon we'll see ES6, that's only in pre-production coming after Starfield, until quite some time after that.
We'll be lucky if it's within the next 5 years, doubt it'll even be that soon.
I don't think it will happen until Elder Scrolls Online drops below a critical level and they finally reach a point where they can't re-release Skyrim again. So sometime after the Skyrim 10th Anniversary Edition in 2021, maybe.
You're thinking along much the same lines that I have been.
That applies to a lot of E3 this year (and the AAA industry in general tbh), empty announcements to create hype and tease with no substance until many years later when they may or may not deliver something.


Having good financial policies is crucial both for the protection of the charity and for providing guidance to staff or volunteers.
When developing financial policies, charities should consider what level of reserve funds should be kept, how any surplus funds should be invested, what level of internal control should be maintained, and what types of gifts should be accepted.
In many smaller ministries, human resource policies and fundraising & stewardship policies are also developed in this area.
Finally, ministry finance staff should ensure that they have appropriate records that assist the ministry should it be audited by Canada Revenue Agency.

Obama Administration officials today released the Final Recommendations of the Ocean Policy Task Force, which would establish a National Policy for the Stewardship of the Ocean, Coasts, and Great Lakes (National Policy) and create a National Ocean Council (NOC) to strengthen ocean governance and coordination. The Final Recommendations prioritize actions for the NOC to pursue, and call for a flexible framework for coastal and marine spatial planning to address conservation, economic activity, user conflict, and sustainable use of the ocean, our coasts and the Great Lakes.
Dr. John P. Holdren, Assistant to the President for Science and Technology and Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy, lauded the policy as a significant step towards securing the sustained well-being of America's waters and coastal regions.
"A National Ocean Policy reflects and affirms the invaluable role that science plays in the stewardship of these cherished resources," said Dr. Holdren. "The work of the National Ocean Council will ensure that future generations of Americans are able to reap the immeasurable and undeniable benefits of healthy ocean, coastal, and Great Lake ecosystems."

Al Williamson is one of the unsung greats of comics art. Well, perhaps "undersung" is a better word (if it is a word), in that those aware of his contributions are usually great admirers, but his work is not as widely known among contemporary comics readers as it should be (not by a long shot).
Williamson occupies a unique place in the history of comics, acting as a kind of bridge between the dazzling full page newspaper adventure comics of the early 20th Century (and the traditions of the great 19th Century pen and ink illustrators that they embodied) and the modern comics upheaval and revolutions of the late 20th Century.
At the early stages of his career, Williamson fell smack in the middle, going to work for the notorious EC comics in 1952, where he was the youngster amid legendary comics greats like Frank Frazetta, Roy Krenkel, Wally Wood and others. His striking science fiction work graced the pages and covers of EC titles like Weird Science and Weird Fantasy, and influenced the generations of comic artists who were growing up at the time, goggle-eyed with flashlights under the covers, reading his lavishly illustrated tales of outer space adventures and outlandish monsters.
Prior to his work with EC, Williamson studied with Burne Hogarth, and assisted him on pages for his Tarzan Sunday newspaper strip. Newspaper adventure comics were dying at the time, however, under pressure from other forms of entertainment and economic squeezing from newspaper editors, and what would have seemed Williamson's natural place became something of a dead end.
Though he worked within the increasingly restrictive format of small daily adventure news paper strips off and on for years, he also moved into comic books, where adventure comics went and morphed into something different in the middle of the century, and he followed them into the latter half of the century, working for the Warren comics magazines (image above, 2nd from top) and Marvel Comics in its heyday, where he was known in particular for his work on a series of Star Wars comics.
All the while he carried forward his love for the great adventure comics, and especially his admiration for the work of Alex Raymond, creator of Flash Gordon, and one of the all time greats of comics art (more on Alex Raymond in a future post).
Williamson had a chance to step into Raymond's considerably large shoes on several occasions, taking over his spy adventure newspaper strip Secret Agent X-9, which became Secret Agent Corrigan and moved from film-noir to James Bond style adventures (image above, bottom and detail), ably scripted by Archie Goodwin. He also assisted John Prentice, who took the reins of Raymond's Rip Kirby strip.
Williamson worked on several versions of Raymond's star character Flash Gordon (image above, top), the strip that had obviously been such and influence on him, from the amazing King Comics version in the 1960's to the Marvel Comics version in the '90s (more on Williamson's Flash Gordon work in a subsequent post).
Unfortunately, though there are scattered resources, I can't find a major repository of Williamson's work in the web, so it's hard to convey the grace of his figures, the elegance of his pen lines, the chiaroscuro drama of his spotted blacks, the dynamics of his compositions or the ground breaking inventiveness of his storytelling and panel layouts. I also can't lead you directly to great examples of his astonishingly rendered details, applied with a delicate finesse that never leaves the impression of gratuitous unnecessary fiddling, unlike so many lesser artists whose grasp of the use of pen and ink textures will never approach Williamson's.
The only thing I can supply, apart from those resources I can list, is a hearty recommendation that those of you with any appreciation for great adventure comics art, or graphic stories told with superb draftsmanship and a subtle command of the visual language of the great pen and ink illustrators, who are not yet familiar with Williamson, treat yourself to one of the many printed collections available that feature his work.
There is a recent book collecting some of his short story work, titled Al Williamson Adventures, from Insight Studios (more here). The limited edition hardcover has apparently come and gone, and I'm unsure of the status of the softcover edition (if it's out, Insight needs to promote it better, I couldn't even find mention of it on their web site.)
Fortunately, there is a great new collection from Flesk Publications, Al Williamson's Flash Gordon: A Lifelong Vision of the Heroic. This book is so terrific I'm going to make it the topic of a separate post.

I read through all the EC sci-fi books in college and was stunned by the work of Al Williamson. The realism, not just the drama in his work, really lifted those stories to another level. I've always been surprised how many comics fans are unfamiliar with him. Nice post.

Thank you! Thank you! unsung is right. I have always admired Al Williams work. It's really hard to find his work online. I have some old creepy and epic comics with his work in them. He was a fantastic artist!
mick statham says:
Al Williamson is one of my all time favourite 'golden age' artists. His line work is just spectacular. I first came across his work on Star Wars in the 80's, when I was a kid. Through him i also discovered Frank Frazetta, another great line artist.

my 13 old grandson is an aspiring artist with a wonderful feel for comic art. Is there any way he can be in touch with Al Williamson whose work he so admires? If you don't care to give an address, perhaps you could ask Mr. Williamson to reply. Thank you.

Did Mr. Williamson ever work on Young Romance? I'm referring to a story called "One Tragic Mistake" I believe it was in issue #38.

About comment # 6.
I found out the artist was John Prentice and not Al Williamson in Young Romance #38. The story was "One Tragic Mistake".

June 25 (UPI) -- Chris Stapleton, Dave Matthews and Neil Young are among the few artists announced for Willie Nelson's 2018 Farm Aid concert that is set to take place in Hartford, Conn.
Nelson will also be taking the stage alongside Kacey Musgraves with John Mellencamp, Sturgill Simpson, Margo Price, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real and Particle Kid also set to perform.
The 33rd annual event will be taking place at the Xfinity theater in Hartford on Sept. 22 with tickets set to go on sale on June 29at 10 a.m. ET through Live Nation. Addiotnal acts will be announced at a later date.
Farm Aid has raised $53 million for grants to help family farmers since being introduced in 1985.
"Family farmers are the backbone of our country," Nelson said in a statement. "But today, they are endangered. Whether we live in cities like Hartford or the rural areas of New England, each of us has the power to create positive, lasting change in our farm and food system and strengthen farm families to help them stay on the land for generations to come."
"The crisis farmers are in now is even worse than 1985, because there are fewer farms left to lose," Mellencamp said. "Family farmers are becoming an endangered species. They have a whole system stacked against them, and time is running out for Americans to demand a fairer playing field. Farm Aid 2018 has to be a rallying cry for all of us to stand up and fight for these families."

Sell or Rent Second Home?
DH and I have spent the past two years building our future retirement home. It is just a ferry hop and 25 miles from our current residence (but feels a world away). In 2005 we refinanced our current residence to build the new house. Current mortgage is $228k and the house is currently valued at 315K w/interest rate at 5.5%. I am hoping to retire in the next 2 years. DH will work for another 6-9 years depending on whether he wants to earn his full pension. It will mean a longer commute for him (adds the ferry into the mix). OK - heres the question.....I'm trying to figure out whether we should keep the main residence and rent it for enough to make the mortgage payments or sell it and be done with it. The house is located in a desirable area. Thoughts, experiences, ideas ?
Here is another way of looking at the situataion: If you had the money to buy the main residence would you buy it and rent it out (assuming you can make the mortgage payments)?
Just imagine being called in the middle of the night or weekend to fix an electrical or plumbing problem. If you are OK with that, then investigate what alternative investments have been making compared to what you hope to make by holding the house (net of any extra expense payments and capital gains).
The leverage might be better but that increases the risks. What if the place required $5k to fix up and was empty for 6 months between tenants? Would you be OK with that risk?
If your rent your second home and then decide to sell have you forfeited your exclusion to tax free capital gains?? That would be my biggest worry. When my house was on the market and seemed it would not sell I thought about renting and a friend brought to mind what I might be giving up.
If all you can rent it for is to cover the mortgage payments, I'd dump it. By the time you factor in property taxes and other expenses, the renters wearing stuff out and damaging stuff, problem renters, midnight calls about leaks in the pipes/roof, months without renters, etc...you'll be losing money. You could do far better dumping the place and the hassles and the money sink and finding a better investment.
If you cannot cover all expenses (including interest)... why bother. Plus, you will have some effort invested in it (your time and aggravation). You will need to consider some % of vacancy time (since you are unlikely to keep it rented constantly).
OK - heres the question.....I'm trying to figure out whether we should keep the main residence and rent it for enough to make the mortgage payments or sell it and be done with it. The house is located in a desirable area. Thoughts, experiences, ideas ?
Sell! Think about how it fits into your ER portfolio's asset allocation and whether you want to include landlording in your lifestyle.
You don't want to deal with phone calls about plugged toilets when you're lounging on Kata Beach with the Kaderlis... but if you're fascinated by the concepts of real estate & home improvement then it might be a nice paying hobby.
1. Who is going to manage the rental? You mentioned your DH will have a longer commute. Is he going to have time?
2. At some point you will be interrupted and have to fix something (plumbing, HVAC) when you'd rather be doing something else.
Also as long as you've lived in the property 2 of the last 5 years you don't owe taxes on the gains upto 500k. Be sure to calculate the amount of taxes that will be due if you lose this benefit. That could answer your question of whether to rent or sell.
Maybe 10% of the way there. The big question is what is the appreciation rate for your area and your type of property and the probability of it increasing, decreasing of staying the same? My lowest average compounded yearly rate of appreciation is 9% over 29 years investing in 3 different states in four different decades.
Sounds like you have $87K equity. At 9% you would increase your equity $28,000 per year and growing (About 32.5% return). Figure your tenant is paying down your mortgage and paying yearly increases in rent increases your return. Put your $87K in the market and earn $14,000 if you think you can do 16% yearly.
If you have the type or location of a home that could sit 6 months without a tenant it doesn't seem very "desirable". SELL! Landlord tip #1. Preventative Maintenance. Plumbing problems, establish a relationship with a good handyman. I collect $1025 per month per toilet and have a market value of $281,250 for each commode. If you are dealing with less value per toilet than that then maybe not a good idea although I have had ZERO plumbing calls and probably spent $500 total on plumbing on the 8 toilets in over 40 years of renting.
Seems like that house helped you get your future retirement home. May be the answer to possible future nursing home needs or a way to give tax free money to your children. Or you could just cash out now and buy a bigass luxury car.
I remember reading (ESRBob's book?) that too much real estate is an ER no-no. Now that I've lived it since Jan. 2005 I can see why.
1. Real estate management and day-to-day involvement is a J O B. Thats what ER's want to avoid.
2. We like the ability to travel (sometimes for months) and otherwise come and go as we please. No can do with a rental.
3. Can be a negative impact on asset allocation.
DW and I recently decided to sell our beachfront property in Alaska. We already sold some property in the Yukon and paid off our mortgage on our house with the proceeds.
The Alaska property made sense when we planned to live in the Yukon and spent 2 or 3 months per year in Alaska. Having spent serious $ on designing and installing a septic system, well, and treated wood stairway to the beach, I began to groan at the thought of a further building project there and HAVING to drive 2000 miles every year to Alaska, like it or not. But letting the expensive septic system sit unused seemed like it forced us to develop.
After talking to a realtor and finding out it was worth nearly twice what we thought, we decided to put it on the market next year while cap gains are still low. This figured into our decision to buy an RV and bank the remainder. Of course, DW didn't wait until the property sold before grabbing the RV (sigh).
I would not want to be 25 miles and a ferry ride away from my very first, one and only, rental. Sell while prices are still high and taxes are still low.
FWIW I have rental property in 3 states; buutt my very first one ... I lived in the first floor of a 3 family. Learned alot.
oh, and forget about "professional" management ... you can't afford it; they'll turn your slightly positive cashflow into a negative one.

Car Seat Headrest Takes A Lo-Fi Route To Big, Classic Rock Songs
Amelia MasonTwitter
Will Toledo of Car Seat Headrest. (Courtesy)
Until recently, Car Seat Headrest, the indie rock solo project of 23-year-old Will Toledo, existed solely within the illusory nethersphere of the Internet. No CDs, no liner notes, no artisanal limited edition cassette tapes. Since 2010, the Virginia-born, Seattle-based musician has been the sole author of Car Seat Headrest, recording songs on his laptop and releasing them on the music-streaming site Bandcamp. At some point Toledo amassed enough fans online that he attracted the attention — via an intern — of the founder of Matador records, who signed him. This month, Toledo released his first in-real-life record, titled "Teens of Style," which consists of reworked material from his back catalog. An album of all-new material, "Teens of Denial," is slated for release in 2016.
In truth, it is not uncommon nowadays for unsigned artists to release their songs on sites like Bandcamp or Soundcloud and not bother with the considerable expense of printing physical copies of their albums. And it is becoming more and more possible for musicians to access technology that allows them to record music at home; from Tune-Yards' lo-fi tape deck musings to Grimes' electronic experimentations, DIY has become de rigueur among the indie set.
What is truly astounding is the sheer pace of Toledo's output. Between May and December 2010, he released five full-length albums: "1," "2," "3," "4" and "Little Pieces of Paper With 'No' Written On Them." In just four years, he totaled 11 albums. They are all still available to stream on Car Seat Headrest's Bandcamp page, albeit with a disclaimer aimed at members of the press: "Media outlets please DO NOT LINK THE NUMBERED ALBUMS BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT VERY GOOD."
Toledo, who performs at the Lizard Lounge in Cambridge on Dec. 4, says he chose to leave the early Car Seat Headrest efforts available online "to show people what it can sound like before an artist really has a handle on their own voice. ... I think it's interesting on a narrative level, because definitely with every release I tried to grow stronger and make something that was more unique and original to myself."
The willingness to be vulnerable is an enormous part of Toledo's appeal. A hard thread of anxiety runs through his songs. Sometimes he explores his fears with humor, other times in raw, almost excruciating detail. The 12-minute-long "Beach Life-In-Death," from 2011's "Twin Fantasy," brushes up obliquely against existential despair — "What should I do? Eat breakfast/ What should I do? Eat lunch" — and plunges into chasms of psychic unease: "Last night I dreamed he was trying to kill you/ I woke up and I was trying to kill you." On "Times to Die," which appears on 2012's "Monomania" and again on "Teens of Style," Toledo wryly distills the anxieties of 20-somethings on the cusp of adulthood: "All of my friends are getting married/ All of my friends are right with God/ All of my friends are making money/ But art gets what it wants and art gets what it deserves."
"I was in college at that point," says Toledo. "I think it was more about 'all my friends are making money,' in that they all had their s--- figured out more than I did. And the only thing I really had going for me was my art."
For the first year of Car Seat Headrest's life, most of Toledo's listeners were his friends. But his popularity reached a tipping point in 2011 with "Twin Fantasy," which was shared widely on the 4Chan music message board. Toledo describes his fans as "young, antisocial, music-loving people." No doubt they are drawn to the intimacy of his lyrics, which are playful and inviting even as they are preoccupied with suffering. Even uncomfortably intimate themes, like discovering one's sexuality, are confronted with droll self-deprecation. "I pretended I was drunk when I came out to my friends," Toledo sings in "Beach Life-in-Death." "I laughed and changed the subject."
"I think people like the DIY aspect of [Car Seat Headrest]," says Toledo. "There haven't been a lot of connections to the music industry until this year. So a lot of people like that feeling, that it is just coming from this individual kid in his bedroom."
Now that Toledo has been signed to a label and featured in the likes of The New Yorker and Pitchfork, that vision of him holed up alone with his laptop is rapidly dissipating. But Toledo says he doesn't have any ambivalence about going more mainstream. "I think it's time," he says. "I've always wanted to do bigger things with a more professional setup, I just didn't have the resources to do it. I can't do what I'm doing forever. Even if I stayed true to my DIY roots and continued making all the albums myself, it wouldn't be so romanticized when I'm 40 years old. It would just be kind of weird."
Toledo points to The Beatles and the experimental post-punk band Swans as major influences. Lately, he has been enamored with the Compton rapper Kendrick Lamar. "I admire [Lamar's] ability to structure an entire album," he says. "It's a complete work, it's like reading a book, basically. All the symbolism and imagery is so perfectly tuned, not just within each song, but within the entire concept of the album as a whole."
The Bandcamp archives of Car Seat Headrest play like a study in songcraft. What begins in roughness and experimentation coalesces, over the course of 11 albums, into an articulate and offbeat pop sensibility. In contrast to Toledo's earlier work, "Teens of Style" is tighter, not so meandering and strange. The tracks, though still marked by dirty guitar sounds and distorted vocals, are pop songs though-and-through.
"Now I just have the confidence to make bigger songs," says Toledo. "Before I even started Car Seat Headrest I was kind of making music that was closer to what I make now — although definitely more amateurish and childish — but with Car Seat Headrest it sort of became more insular. I guess I was going through a more insecure time. But when I came out of it I had the skills to make the songs I wanted to make, which is the big, classic rock songs that I grew up on and had always loved."
