Three people turn out to Michael Rasmussen book-signing
by Ben Atkins at 8:10 AM EST comments
Categories: Pro Cycling, Doping
Danish fans growing weary of tell-all autobiographies from former doping riders?
It seems that the people of Denmark growing weary of tell-all autobiographies from former doping riders, or at least turning out to meet the authors, as Danish newspaper BT reports. Just three people turned up to a signing of Michael Rasmussen's scandalous new book "Yellow Fever" at the Storkfelt Bog & Idé shop, in Ahlgade, with one of those reportedly being among 12 people to have pre-ordered their copy.
Rasmussen's book has caused shockwaves through the sport of cycling as he not only confesses to his own career-long doping activities, but also outs many other big names. 2012 Giro d'Italia champion Ryder Hesjedal (Garmin-Sharp) is one of those feeling the heat after claims in the Danish rider's book, while former Rabobank teammate Oscar Freire had demanded that Rasmussen withdraw the claim made on a Danish chat show that the Spanish rider was doped during the 2007 Tour de France.
The Danish public has already had to deal with two of its cycling heroes falling from grace by their own confessional autobiographies. In 2010 Saxo Bank team owner Bjarne Riis elaborated on his 2007 confession that he had doped during his 1996 Tour de France victory - a first for Denmark - adding that he had used EPO for much of his career.
Earlier, in 2007 - not long after Rasmussen himself had been ejected from the Tour de France and fired by his Rabobank team - former Danish champion and Tour de France yellow jersey Bo Hamburger had released his own tell-all tome, that admitted lengthy use of doping products in his own career.
Perhaps as a consequence of its two previous heroes' confessions, despite putting aside an hour for the event - to which several members of the local and national media were in attendance - "The Chicken" had just three visitors interested in getting their hands on a signed copy of the latest account of one of Denmark's sporting stars fall from grace.

The Crown, Season 4: The Music Supervisor Behind the Soundtrack
By Vicky Bennett
By Vicky Bennett / GMS Administrator
The Crown is a Netflix favourite for millions of people around the world, and it's no secret that there has been a buzz around the newest season, (with 29 million viewers tuning in to the first week of its season 4 release – that's 600,000 more people who tuned in to The Royal Wedding in 1981)!
This season focuses on the 80s era featuring Princess Diana, Margaret Thatcher and the reprising character, Queen Elizabeth II.
Along with the drama, comes a thrilling and encapsulating soundtrack to fit the story, including a few classics from Stevie Nicks, Billy Joel and Duran Duran.
With this in mind, we had the pleasure to speak to Music Supervisor, Sarah Bridge, who delves into her process for the newest season and tells us exactly why she chose the songs she did.
In this season of The Crown, 80s classics have been deeply rooted into the show which was a strong choice, especially when taking into account the era these events occurred in, along with Princess Diana's character.
Therefore, choosing many 80s hits was a very creative and perhaps risky but successful choice, considering the juxtaposition between the modern roots of Lady Diana's style and the upholding of traditional and classic styles within The Royal Family.
— With this in mind, which scene did you most look forward to working on after you initially read the script for this season, and why did you feel that music in this particular scene was most fitting for it?
Sarah: Season 4 was a very exciting prospect musically. In part due to us stepping into the '80s and of course due to the stories depicted in Peter Morgan's phenomenal writing.
One vision we had from the outset was to feature more needle drops throughout this Season, it felt like a natural progression as we step into the '80s and the younger generation of the Royal Family begin to take centre stage.
Some of the songs were chosen in the early stages of pre-production and others came later once into the edit. The choice of song is naturally influenced by the character and narrative at play.
This season focuses heavily on a young Lady Diana and the vast transitions she went through at a very early age. We witness both her incredible strength of character grow throughout the season intermixed with visions of her vulnerability, loneliness and longing to belong, to be loved.
I think one of the most prominent moments that exemplify this is the use of "Song For Guy" by Elton John in episode 3. A scene in which Diana is feeling utterly alone and despairing, she is losing herself in dance and music – it is a bittersweet moment of sadness and empowerment. We explored several ideas for this sequence but the chosen song just captured all of the emotional energy and movement of her performance
In episode 3, Stevie Nicks sings Edge of Seventeen to accompany and narrate the intense joy Diana feels after being proposed to. It plays as Diana and her housemates are travelling to the club to celebrate what you could say is the last of her normality before diving deep into the customs of being royal.
By the end of this episode we hear this significant track again over the credits, yet this time we only hear Stevie Nicks' isolated vocals, which could be a nod to mirroring Diana's isolation in the palace. This shows us how little time there is in the huge contrast between the emotional high Diana once felt, to now an emotional low right before her wedding.
— When in the process did you decide this was the right song to express Diana's happiness at this moment, and after it was agreed by the director to use this song, what process did you go through to achieve the raw a cappella from Stevie Nicks?
Sarah: This song was chosen in advance of filming the scenes. I presented the idea of featuring a commercial song across the montage and to end with it playing in the club where Diana and friends are dancing.
The opening of this episode is the happiest we see Diana in the show and the director Benjamin Caron and I both felt that the song captured the spirit of the euphoric joy that Diana was feeling in this moment.
We were sent the stems for editing purposes and whilst listening through were captured by the raw beauty and haunting feel of the acapella, this led to us trying it over the end titles, it felt very significant and connected to the place of isolation where Diana finds herself at the end of the episode.
Some of my own favourite artists have been presented within this season, with iconic hits from Duran Duran, Elton John, Diana Ross, Billy Joel and Queen (To name a few)!!
— How did you ensure that Diana's own music influence was clearly portrayed to the viewer, which could help them empathise the same joy, sadness, empowerment or silent rejection she felt?
Sarah: Upon my initial research into Diana's musical tastes, I learnt that Duran Duran was one of her favourite bands, it naturally felt very important to feature them at some point in the show.
We feature them playing from her Walkman whilst she roller-skates within the walls of the palace a scene in which we see Diana's adventurous spirit captured alongside feeling incredibly constrained.
The music throughout the season (most notably in episode 3) is featured and used as a comforting escape for her from the realities of what she is living through.
Alongside the research the role of the music supervisor is to explore and deliver creative ideas that heighten the narrative at play, that compliment the characters and tonally lift the film. We go on an incredibly emotional journey with Diana and sought to score this both with Martin Phipps' original music and songs that felt true to her character.
Meanwhile, as Margaret Thatcher's reign as Prime Minister continues in the ever-developing season, the unhappiness of the public reacting to her economic policies throughout the years is prominent and conveyed through episode five's main character, Michael Fagan.
Fagan is a disgruntled member of the British public working class and at every turn that he faces in both his personal and work life, he hits what seems to be, never-ending dead ends. This is shown in the music to give the running commentary of hardship caused by Thatcher in this episode with The English Beat's, 'Whine and Grine/Stand Down Margaret' as a rather fitting musical number from the public's point of view.
— 'Twenty Four Hours' by Joy Division, seemed to foreshadow Fagan's actions and emotions for his breaking into Buckingham Palace to speak with Queen Elizabeth II. When did you realise and decide that this and the rest of the soundtrack featured in this episode was the style of music you wanted to represent Fagan and the public's dissatisfaction?
Sarah: As we know, the Thatcher years were a politically explosive time in the UK and I delved into researching music that played a strong social, cultural and political role throughout this period.
I loved working on this episode, it felt like a stand-alone piece musically within the season. It was a chance to shift the tonal landscape and connect to Michael Fagan's world and his representation of a disillusioned Britain.
I was drawn to explore songs that invited the audience into Fagan's world and reflected the tonal landscape at play, featuring bands such as Joy Division, The Cure, The Specials. It was really important to give authenticity to this period through music whilst juxtaposing the bleakness of his world, a disillusioned Britain against the richness of the Royal Family.
Margaret Thatcher's politics received a musical uprising throughout the 1980s. A wealth of politically motivated and protest songs led to Thatcher being one of the most condemned politicians in British music.
We represented this via the music of Linton Kwesi Johnson (whose music we feature later in the show) and ending the Fagan episode on "Stand Down Margaret" by The Beat, a song that was released just one year after her time in office.
— Can you give us an insight into some of the on-camera moments where the recordings needed to be fine-fitted to picture?
Sarah: As with Season 3, there were multiple on-camera performances to organise ranging from the bagpiper in Balmoral, through marching bands to the jazz band playing "New York, New York" live on set in episode 10, but the following two scenes were particularly involved and a lot of fun to bring to life;
Episode 6, Diana and Charles dance to "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" I hired an arranger to orchestrate the new arrangement for the function band to be performing on set. We pre-recorded this song in a studio in London and then featured the same musicians and singers on-camera.
This scene was based on archive footage from the tour, the song was decided upon as we collectively felt it captured this moment of a growing understanding and connection between Diana and Charles, alongside injecting some fun and glamour to the performance.
Episode 9 "All I Ask of You" from Phantom of the Opera "All I Ask of You" from Phantom was a live recording captured on the day of filming, we worked with ALW's company to provide us with all score parts and also hired one of the shows original conductors to feature on-camera for the day of recording/filming.
From memory, we were all on stage by 7 am set up to record the orchestra ahead of filming commencing – it was a long day!
This season of The Crown has remarkable period music which soundtracks the drama, the joy and the sadness that is sprinkled throughout both the characters and the story, to the viewer.
— 'Once final mixing took place, which was your favourite scene and musical moment to watch back?
Sarah: It is hard to pinpoint one individual song/scene, but I would definitely say it is episode 3 that was the most enjoyable (and heartbreaking) watch of this Season.
Thank you, Sarah, for taking the time out to speak with us here at GMS, we wish you the best in your future work!

Topicality. Tubular damages take an important place among the causes of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Therefore while searching the effective drugs for CKD treatment it is advisable to study their effect on the tubular apparatus of a pathologically altered kidney.
Aim. Experimental study of Gluquamine efficacy in the case of tubular kidney damage to substantiate the advisability of its using in CKD therapy.
Materials and methods. Mercuric chloride nephropathy in rats was used as a model of tubular renal damage. Diuresis, excretion and clearance of creatinine, tubular reabsorption, urinary activity of lactate dehydrogenase enzymes, γ-glutamyltransferase and N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase were determined in animals.
Results and discussion. 3 weeks after the nephropathy induction under the influence of Gluquamine there was a significant increase relatively to untreated animals of the diuresis, excretion and clearance of creatinine, tubular reabsorption, which indicates the normalization of kidneys functional state. There was also a positive effect on markers content of kidneys tubular apparatus damage, which was manifested in a significant decrease in the level of enzymuria. At the same time by the degree of influence Gluquamine significantly exceeded the activity of comparative drugs quercetin and lesprefil by the majority of parameters.
Conclusions. In the conditions of tubular kidney damage development leading to emergence of renal failure, Gluquamine has a pronounced nephroprotective effect and is a promising drug in CKD therapy.

First, employers who are located in Warwick can be required to implement and visibly post company policies regulating sexual conduct. These policies may include contact information for an employee to report sexual harassment, the process for handling such claims, and the corrective measures for when a claim is proven.
Rhode Island and federal laws formed agencies that process claims involving sexual harassment. They have the authority to investigate Warwick workplaces regarding the conduct alleged in the complaints that have been filed with them. These laws also prohibit employers from firing employees or taking any retaliatory action against workers who have complained of sexual harassment.
It can be difficult to both investigate and prove a sexual harassment claim without having any expertise in the applicable areas of law. The federal officers who investigate claims of sexual harassment are, unfortunately, frequently too busy to give much attention to any one claim. So, hiring a Warwick lawyer can be the surest way to file your sexual harassment claim within the deadlines specified by the state of Rhode Island.
Warwick, Rhode Island is the second largest city in the small state of Rhode Island with a population of just under 90,000 residents. The sizeable city is on almost 50 square miles and is home to the main airport in Rhode Island as well as the Rhode Island National Guard. Warwick was founded in 1642, and is a city with some major historical significance. Warwick was the site where the first shot was fired in the American Revolution, and was also the site for many other important battles that ultimately led to America's independence. Not surprisingly, there are many relics to commemorate the various sites throughout the city. Warwick has come a long way from its roots and is a popular place to live and visit in Rhode Island. It is no wonder that Warwick attracts some of the state's top professionals to live and practice in it's borders. Warwick lawyers are trained at some of the nation's top law schools and are skilled in a range of practice areas. Warwick lawyers, along with the rest of the Warwick workforce are just one more reason that makes this city so wonderful.

Posted by WiseGuy & filed under NYC, Shows, Spiderman.
If you're a fan of classic broadway shows, musical theater, and great entertainment experiences you may have heard about the most expensive broadway production every mounted. You must be living under a rock if you're hearing this for the first time, but They made a Broadway Show out of Spiderman!
If you came here hoping that this would be a big bash-fest, you're about to be disappointed – I enjoyed the show, and would see it again, but not in New York. Keep reading – it gets better.
Despite being in previews for an extended period and going through several revamps, the story still seems glued together like the panels on a storyboard. The production feels disjointed and heavily edited – unlike some well written stories that flow easily from scene to scene.
The story of Arachne is explored from the beginning of the show and the mythical spider herself appears a few times to guide Peter Parker on his journey – which is entirely pointless and does not advance the story in any way, but is very cool to watch. You can see the money at work in this show – it is very dark, and very beautiful.
In truth, this extravagant, lumbering, largely plotless and tedious story depends on some decent music and some amazing technical effects to pull off it's magic. The characters are two-dimensional, which isn't surprising since they are lifted from the pages of a comic book.
So What's Good about Spiderman on Broadway?
Reeve Carney (Spiderman) does a good job with a physically and emotionally demanding role, he's the right man for the job, but did look very strained as he descended from the ceiling to take his final bow at the end.
What's the best place to sit for Spiderman Turn off the dark at the Foxwoods theater in New York?
Don't spring for the front row premium seats – you will cry when you realize that all the cool flying effects are happening behind you, or so far above the stage you'll have to crane your neck to see what's going on. TKTS tickets are a crap-shoot, if you get stuck on the main floor under the balconies you'll miss some of the high-wire antics as well. Your best bet for a great view of everything is to get some of the "flying circle" seats.
Since spiderman makes such a huge visual impact, consider strongly paying a premium for the first three rows of the first balcony (mezz), or the first row of the 2nd balcony. Mezz Center would be my choice if I was going back, or 2nd balcony right side (There is a landing pad there that is used by Spiderman a few times during the show, and would give children a huge thrill to see Spiderman drop down in front of them.
The real truth about Spiderman is that it is not a traditional Broadway show. This is a Universal Studios attraction that was built in the wrong place. Broadway is the place for musical theater it's a place for comedy it's the place for high art.
If I was recommending a show for your first Broadway experience.. I would not recommend Spiderman – I'd recommend you see anything else: Go see Phantom, How to Succeed or Wicked, but if you seen everything else and you're looking for something that's fun, campy and you happen to want to see Spiderman swing around a theater (which is very cool), go and see Spiderman. It's not a bad show. It's just not a very good show. It's average.
Average is fine and good, but when you frame it as some other types of entertainment the story changes: It's a terrible play, middling musical, overpriced and over-hyped production that will run it's course and eventually find a home at Universal Studios or possibly Disneyworld. Which is exactly where it belongs – in a theme park full of families and comic book fans, not on Broadway.
Just don't expect too much in the way of tradition from this show.
If you're hoping to buy your tickets, you should consider the box office only if you can get the best seating area for this show (see above notes). Failing that, check the TKTS booth as you will almost certainly be able to get some at 40% off at the last minute, try to avoid being under the balcony on this one, you will miss some of the aerial action, but not much. GoldStar had an offer for Spiderman tickets not long ago, which tells you everything you need to know: the show sells out, but only with the help of discounted ticket offers like this one from back in March.
This offer is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Additional allocations may be offered based on availability. The free kid's ticket is redeemable for ages 4-15 only with purchase of an adult ticket at the $149.50 price level.
Costumes may be homemade or store-bought but must be a head-to-toe resemblance of Spider-Man. "Management and/or box office staff has the right to determine eligibility of the costume," according to a press statement.
WiseGuy enjoys broadway shows, live events of all kinds, and sitting in the front row (except for big productions like this). If you need tickets to a show in New York, or anywhere else in the country check out his blog for information on how to buy tickets before the public using presale passwords.

On Thomas Merton, contra Garry Wills
I came into the Church not only by the philosophical route (studying Aquinas at a Lutheran college) but also by way of discovering the writings of Thomas Merton and Dorothy Day (both of whom profoundly influenced my decision to convert). I wouldn't characterize myself as a "devotee" of Merton, but I've appreciated his work, particularly his private journals as well as his contributions to interreligious dialogue (where if anything I like him for his ability to engage Buddhism, Hinduism and Islamic Sufism with a clarity and precision that is often found wanting in the casual syncretism of contemporary dialogue today).
Which brings me to the newly published review by Garry Wills of Mary Gordon's On Thomas Merton, now making its way through Facebook and Twitter: "Shallow Calls to Shallow: On Thomas Merton 50 Years After His Death" (Harpers April 2019). True to form, Wills' take on Merton is particularly caustic, from his dismissal of the Seventh Story Mountain ("not much more than third-rate Joyce, fourth-rate Eliot, and some out-of-date Surrealism") to deriving rather great enjoyment in selectively-excerpted details of an affair, ultimately writing off of Merton as simply another phony:
[Merton's attempts to conceal the affair] are one with a pattern built into his "apostolate" as the with-it monk. He pretended to love the monastic community he thought full of "half-wits," whom he wanted nothing more to do with, as part of the quest for a "greater solitude" he used to increase his audience of fans and the famous. He wanted the best of both worlds, as a holy preacher and a covert sinner.
On the matter of Merton's affair
Taking stock of Merton's affair, it's understandable how one might arrive at the conclusion: "Thomas Merton was a bad horrible individual. He abused the power of his office to prey sexually on an emotional vulnerable woman half his age, just because he could." The relationship certainly had aspects that were exploitative: she was a volunteer nurse, he a renowned and celebrated author. She was reportedly 25 (though some accounts place her even younger), he was 51, and in her care. Whether "M." would cast herself as helpless victim we do not know: she would go on to marry another and has opted to maintain a perpetual state of silence about the subject; Merton on the other hand chronicled every step in his journal, which was posthumously released.
Re-reading those passages from 66-67, my sense is less of Merton as predator than a celibate monk utterly blindsided by a dizzying, intoxicating plunge into eros -- though whether the relationship ever actually resulted in sexual "consumation" is questionable (Wills infers that it happened; textual evidence however is lacking). In any case, Merton should have known better, and the entire matter comes across as more confusing than Wills lets on. The content of the journal entries from this period vacillate between lovesick rationalizations, romantic celebrations, and moments of genuine moral anguish as Merton reconciles what he perceives as his love for "M." (and "M.'s" professed love for him) with his religious vocation and priesthood.
As to the question of whether he eventually repented, Merton seems to have achieved a state of regret with time, distance and perhaps -- though not absolving him of his moral responsibility -- attaining some measure of sobriety as well. I can't say I particularly cared for Mark Shaw's book on the affair (Beneath the Mask of Holiness), but he did make an interesting observation:
... a valid interpretation based on his journal entries leaves little doubt alcohol was, at the least, a contributing factor in the romance with Margie. Certainly his words indicate alcohol was a constant companion as the relationship intensified, perhaps a fortifier of the courage he needed to keep the love flame alive, despite a reality check now and then. His passion for Margie was intense, and the alcohol may have bolstered his feelings of manhood. Few Merton scholars have approached this subject, perhaps out of respect for him, or because no one has heretofore connected the dots between his pre-monastic conduct and Merton's intermittent drinking during the Margie affair. It does appear that after he had finally decided to choose God over Margie, the drinking was curtailed, evidence that alcohol was less of a crutch than before.
Nonetheless, two years later he would write:
"It was a humbling experience: What I see is this: that while I imagine I was functioning fairly successfully, I was living a sort of patched up, crazy existence, a series of rather hopeless improvisations, a life of unreality in many ways. Always underlain by a certain solid silence and presence, a faith, a clinging to the invisible God – and this clinging (perhaps rather His holding on to me) has been in the end the only thing that made sense. The rest has been absurdity …. I will probably go on like this for the rest of my life. There is "I" – this patchwork, this bundle of questions and doubts and obsessions, this gravitation to silence and to the woods and to love. This incoherence!"
And a year after that, in 1967:
"I was literally shaken and disturbed, knowing clearly that I was all wrong, that I was going against everything that made sense in my life, going against everything that was true and authentic in my vocation, going against the grace and love of God." (4/10/67).
Merton's life is complex, flawed, psychologically troubled, subject to human vice and sin. The vows of a priest and the solitary life of a Trappist monk do not render one immune from temptation, and that Merton stumbled (greatly) along the way comes as no surprise. But I'd venture that we can yet learn from him, and he will likely persist in leading many into the Church. Reading his journals, I still find myself profoundly awed by the rigorous, unrelenting scrutinizing to which he subjected himself; the perpetual assessment of motives and the open acknowledgement of his failure and duplicity.
Commenting to Wills' article on Twitter, Greg Hillis (Associate Professor of Theology, Bellarmine U.) observes:
"... it would have been very easy for Merton to burn his private journals or at least to tear out the pages in which he talks about his relationship with Margie (he knew the journals would be published 25 years after his death). He he knew the potential damage this might have to his reputation. To me, this manifests a remarkable humility, a willingness to allow himself to be known, warts and all."
On Merton's Turn toward the East
Somebody else alludes to having burned Merton's later books, another claiming "his mysticism is closer to Buddhism than authentic Catholic mysticism". I notice in those unfamiliar with Merton a tendency to place his interest in other religions as something of a lark, a "post-Vatican II" infatuation. It might come as a surprise, but Merton's interest in other religions came much earlier, even in college and predating his entrance into the monastery; his later exploration of Buddhism was hardly the resigned capitulation of a disinterested and "lapsed" Catholic. Jim Forrest, a longtime friend of Merton:
"It is not unusual to meet people who think that, had he only lived longer, he would have become a Buddhist. But as you get to know Merton's life and writing more intimately, you come to understand that his particular door to communion with others was Christ Himself. Apart from times of illness, he celebrated Mass nearly every day of his life from the time of his ordination in 1949 until he died in Thailand 19 years later. Even while visiting the Dalai Lama in the Himalayas, he found time to recite the usual Trappist monastic offices. One of the great joys in the last years of his life was his abbot permitting the construction of a chapel adjacent to the cider block house that became Merton's hermitage -- he was blessed to celebrate the Liturgy where he lived. If there were any items of personal property to which he had a special attachment, they were the several hand-written icons that had been given to him, one of which traveled with him on his final journey. Few people lived so Christ-centered a life. But his Christianity was spacious."
For another fair-minded, rather more charitable (and yet still critical, from an orthodox perspective) assessment of Thomas Merton one might turn to "A Many-Storied Monastic: A Critical Memoir of Thomas Merton at Gethsemani Abbey" by Patrick Henry Reardon (Touchstone Sept/Oct 2011), who also dispels spurious rumors that Merton lost his faith:
a couple of decades ago a well-known Orthodox writer, learning that I had been a novice under Merton's tutelage, expressed misgivings about him: "It seems to me," he confessed, "that Merton was a writer first, a monk second, and a Christian last."
I was happy to dispel that impression. From my earliest meeting with Merton (at 4 p.m. on December 28, 1955) I was moved by the sense of his deep conversion, metanoia, and the humility that exuded from his person. He said to me, "I have reached the point in my spiritual life at which I am certain that I know nothing about the spiritual life."
In addition, it is a documented fact that Merton, unto the day he died, cultivated standard and traditional disciplines of Christian piety: the observance of the Canonical Hours, the daily recitation of the rosary, the habit of regular Eucharistic adoration, the constant recitation of the Jesus Prayer, and so forth. These were not the practices of a Buddhist.
I suppose what I find most disappointing about Will's cherry-picked tabloidesque expose is the manner in which it will (predictably) provide a vehicle for a sanctimonious pile-on in the comboxes and an altogether convenient excuse never to engage the breadth and diversity of his works. I can take heart, however, as I've learned that Greg Hillis is in the process of writing a book that looks at "how seriously Merton took his identity as a Catholic, as a priest, as a monk, and also examines his Eucharistic theology." Perhaps Wills won't get the last word on Merton after all.

Coming to this very late, but I think Wills is referring to "My Arguments with the Gestapo" rather than "The Seven Storey Mountain" as "not much more than third-rate Joyce, fourth-rate Eliot, and some out-of-date Surrealism."
Jonathan Harvey August 14, 2021 at 1:42 PM
Yes, indeed. "Gestapo" is one of 5 novels Merton wrote pre-conversion, and the only one he did not destroy, and had it published posthumously. THAT is the book Wills makes this snarky remark about, NOT "The Seven Story Mountain".

This Week In St. Louis 11/9/15 - 11/15/15
Olivia Block (Chicago, IL)
Circuit Des Yeux (IN)
@ Foam / 3359 S. Jefferson ave.
8 p.m. / $10-$15 / all ages
Olivia Block specializes in found sound and collage noise with busy post-processing that gradually morphs in real-time. Her performances tend to be disorienting -- a challenge to the senses with a huge payoff. Circuit Des Yeux is the creeping synth-laden songs of one Haley Fohr, who just released a brand new record, In Plain Speech, on Thrill Jockey earlier this year.
Negative Approach (Detroit, MI)
Child Bite (Detroit, MI)
Everything Went Black
@ Fubar / 3108 Locust St.
Negative Approach is legendary Detroit hardcore that needs little introduction. At this point, most people have their mind made up about the band, so think of this as a simple P.S.A. They're coming to town with Child Bite and two of St. Louis' best and busiest bands in the genre are opening.
Leather Leather by VIDEO
Video (Denton, TX)
Black Panties
Cal & the Calories
9 p.m. / $7 / 21+
Lumpy Recs illuminati open for Denton's Video, who includes members of Radioactivity, Bad Sports and others. The band is signed to Third Man Records now (yeah, Jack White's label), but that doesn't seem to have taken any of the grit or gravel out of its total punk rock.
Bod (Minneapolis, MN)
Dana T (IA)
T.A.F.K.A Biggiestardust
Fragile Janet
Slave Cable
DJ Larva Lu
@ Kismet / 3409 Iowa Ave.
Grace Smith is leaving St. Louis again. As in, moving. This night is the last that the woman behind Janet will bewilder you and everyone else just "trying to have a good time" (at least until she moves back). This show is a weird, noisy send-off headed by Minneapolis' garage-punkers Bod.
Free Pizza (Boston, MA)
Tubby Tom
The Vanilla Beans
Boreal Hills
Remember when you joked around about naming your band "Free Pizza" but never got around to it? These guys did, and judging by the video above, they write songs that sound like its namesake. Do these guys know about provel? Probably not, so go fuck them up with our fake cheese.
Night Grinder (Denver, CO)
Mirror Fears (Denver, CO)
Monster Sized Monster
Fragile Farm
DJ Paradoxal Pterodactyl
8 p.m. / donation$ / all ages
Brad Schumacher a.k.a. The Night Grinder lived in St. Louis for many years as a sort of buried treasure. It's not that he didn't play shows, but with other older, more renowned names in town doing noise and free-improv, Schumacher never enjoyed much hype. And really, that's to the detriment of everyone in town -- he was one of St. Louis' most innovative and articulate noise artists and now he's back for one night.

After lots of sewing, the first phase of Mackenzie's quilt is finally done! I wanted it to be really bright and fun with different textures and I think I accomplished that but don't look too closely or you will see some of the imperfections that are definitely there! Now I need to get some batting, do the actual quilting and then put the backing on. Sounds easy enough....right?
Any quilters out there have suggestions for quilting the middle of the quilt? I have found that because it is so large there is a lot of fabric that gets bunched up in the arm of the sewing machine making it really hard to sew it properly without bunching or pulling. Does that make sense?
Your daughter is beautiful. You have some great shots of her close-up. And congrats on your pregnancy.
I love your quilts! Where do you find your fun fabric? I want some like that!
What a stunning quilt! Thank you for sharing.

For Juniors, who need to earn 40 hours by the end of the year, there are three national service clubs offered here at Jesuit; one is the Key Club. The Key Club is moderated by Mr. Ornelas and Mr. Vu, but it is led by the youth in it.
What is Key Club?
Specifically, the Key Club, in the words of Mr. Ornelas, is: "a leadership, fellowship, service organization for high school students. The mission statement is that Key Club is an international, student-led organization that provides its members with opportunities to provide service, build character and develop leadership. Our motto is: 'Caring is our way of life,' and the Pledge of members is: 'I pledge, on my honor, to uphold the Objects of Key Club International; to build my home, school, and community; to serve my nation and God, and combat all forces which tend to undermine these institutions.' Its mission has been to serve the Dallas community and people in need."
As mentioned before, the Key Club is a youth-run organization; this year's elections haven't happened yet, but the elected leaders will be Juniors and Seniors that were nominated and voted on by other members in the Key Club.
What does Key Club do?
Again, this question is answered by Mr. Ornelas:
"Usually, all service is done on Saturday's but there could be opportunities to sign up for other events during the weekday. Currently, this year Key Club has adopted 'Manna for Others: St. Mary of Carmel.' This is a breakfast program that serves the community of St. Mary of Carmel and West Dallas. We have also helped out at Austin Street Center. In the past we have had projects for Habitat for Humanity, donation drives, March for Dimes, marathons and 5ks."
"Service and leadership are integral to Key Club. Junior and Senior members who are a part of this international organization have many great opportunities to connect with the greater Dallas area as they are serving alongside their brothers."
The Key Club can be a great chance to help out the community, band together as brothers, and get those pesky service hours done that always tend to loom over your shoulder at the end of the year.

Q: Prove that $v = 0 \iff v + iT(v) = 0$ for a self adjoint operator
Let $T:V\rightarrow V$ be a self adjoint operator over $C$.
Prove that $v = 0  \iff  v + iT(v) = 0$.

I've tried to use a norm and equate it to $0$, and also to use $\langle v + iT(v),u\rangle = 0$ for every $u\in V$, but i always get stuck. Maybe there's something very basic i'm missing here.

A: Hint The "$\implies$" direction is easy. For the other direction, go by contrapositive. Suppose that $v + iT(v) = 0$.  That is, we have $v = -iT(v) \implies T(v) = iv$.
Use the fact that $T$ is self-adjoint to show that $v = 0$.

Q: Spring custom date parsing using a custom PropertyEditor I have a form which sends date fields in a specific format(dd-MMMM-yy),i am trying to setup my spring application so it can automatically parse dates into a java.util.Date object.
One way i have approached this is to first create a custom PropertyEditorSupport class which will deal with the parsing my dates the are incoming from/outgoing to the form
public class DateTimeEditor extends PropertyEditorSupport {
    @Override
    public void setAsText(String value) {
        try {
            setValue(new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMMM-yy").parse(value));
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            setValue(null);
        }
    }

    @Override
    public String getAsText() {
        String stringDate = "";
        try {
            stringDate= new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMMM-yy").format((Date)getValue());
        } catch(Exception ex) {
            //
        }
        return stringDate
    }
}

Then create a custom PropertyEditorRegistrar to register the above PropertyEditorSupport to handle Dates
public class CustomPropertyEditorRegistrar implements PropertyEditorRegistrar {
    @Override
    public void registerCustomEditors(PropertyEditorRegistry registry) {
        registry.registerCustomEditor(Date.class, new DateTimeEditor());
    }
}

Create the bean in the spring context
<bean id="customEditorConfigurer" class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.CustomEditorConfigurer">
    <property name="propertyEditorRegistrars">
        <list>
            <bean class="com.test.CustomPropertyEditorRegistrar" />
        </list>
    </property>
</bean>

I can see the method registerCustomEditors of the CustomPropertyEditorRegistrar class being invoked several times but the methods(setAsText or getAsText) in the DateTimeEditor never get invoked.
Any ideas why?

A: You need to add your editor to spring binding in Controller class...
@InitBinder
public void initBinder(final WebDataBinder binder) {
    binder.registerCustomEditor(Date.class, new DateTimeEditor());
}
