A Victoria Birder: Slow, but sunny!
The weather thinks it is spring, the Bewick's Wren singing non-stop outside my window thinks it is spring, and I am beginning to believe it myself.
Speaking of Swan Lake, my wife and I decided to walk the trail around the lake this past weekend, where we ran into Ian Cruickshank and the Sunday Bird Walkers. Ian and I chatted briefly about bitterns as we leap-frogged each other a few times on the trail, and were stopped dead in our tracks along the south end of the lake by a pumping call coming from the reeds. We have both been treated to these calls in the past, but to that date, neither of us had heard an American Bittern calling at Swan Lake! It was a treat to spend an hour or so listening as the bird would call occassionally, a few clicks before glunk-a-lunking away. The bird moved around a fair bit, never calling from the same spot twice, but also never seeing fit to cross one of the many small, open areas. We never did get a look, and eventually continued on our way, enjoying great numbers of Yellow-rumped Warblers, Spotted Towhees, and the other lake regulars. At Tuesday Pond there was a small collection of ducks including Green-winged Teal, Northern Shovelers, and Northern Pintails.
Elsewhere, my birding has been quiet. I headed over to Port Angeles on the Coho last Friday (first trip of the year!) now that they have returned to two trips a day. There were very few birds on the water, and only small numbers of alcids. I did see my first California Gull of the year, as well as 5 Brant out on the water, but my target birds were nowhere to be found. It wasn`t a total waste of a trip, as I did discover the Dungeness Spit Pale Ale, brewed up by Peaks Brew Pub (www.peakspub.com), as well as add Brant to my Washington State list (or so eBird tells me!).
I am doing a big year, too! So far I have 125 species. I am a child, meaning I can't drive, so I have to stay in the Campbell River area. Do you have any tips? I know your first will be travel around, but I can't do that. Any tips are welcome!
Get out lots, hit all the habitats, watch the weather, and go to the places no one else does! Rarities, and birds in general, are notorious for not knowing where the hotspots are!
Oh, and if you are looking for Bitterns, take lots of coffee, and don't make plans for the rest of the day!

Chris Christie: 'Nobody in the Real World' Cares About Donald Trump
By Alex GriswoldJul 13th, 2015, 10:35 am
Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie asked the media establishment Monday morning to move on from the constant Donald Trump questions, telling the hosts of Fox and Friends that "nobody in the real world" cared about his distracting candidacy.
"…Donald Trump has been in the news and has been saying that we've got to do a lot more about immigration. He's made comments that have frustrated some of your fellow Republicans, who have said he's setting the wrong tone for the party. Where do you stand?" asked host Steve Doocy.
Christie was clearly not happy to get the question. "We talked about this over and over again. What we should be talking about are all the significant problem we have in this country, like entitlement reform… We should be talking about education reform and not continue to be talking about all this stuff. Enough, we've answered the question!"
"This would be the 50th time I've answered now," he continued when pressed by Doocy. "It's inappropriate, the comments were inappropriate. But listen, Donald is a friend, and I've known him for 13 years and I like him personally. But his comments were inappropriate. That's now the 50th time I've said it; it will be the last time."
"When I'm out there talking to folks, nobody in the real world asks me about this. Nobody," he said. "But anytime I get on a media show, all anybody wants to talk about is Donald Trump."

Morikawa not focused on Masters lore as he tries to make it
Collin Morikawa catches his ball after putting on the fifth hole during a practice round for the Masters golf tournament on Monday, April 4, 2022, in Augusta, Ga. (AP Photo/Robert F. Bukaty)
AUGUSTA, Ga. – The weight of history packed into every inch of Augusta National can be overwhelming. There isn't a tee box, a fairway, a bunker, a thatch of pine straw or a putting surface where the greats haven't walked. Where iconic shots haven't been made. Where green jackets haven't been won. Or lost.
Collin Morikawa appreciates the lore. Acknowledges it. And is well aware of the impact it can have on your game.
"You show up for your first time and that's what happens with a lot of people," Morikawa said, who will be playing in his third Masters. "They are like, 'Oh man, this happened here. This happened here.'"
Yet the 25-year-old, two-time major champion doesn't get hung up on it. Walking onto the 18th green at the end of a practice round Monday, caddie J.J. Jakovac asked Morikawa if he wanted to recreate Mark O'Meara's dramatic birdie that captured the 1998 Masters.
To which Morikawa had just one question.
"What putt? I had no clue which putt (O'Meara) had to win the Masters," Morikawa said with a laugh. "So he drops the ball, and he's like, 'Oh, I thought you would have known.' I was like, 'No, I have zero clue.'"
It's not disrespect. It's more of a choice. He loves the game. He's simply intent on not letting it consume him. That's just not how he's wired.
"If I want to have a long career .. if golf is 24/7 and I go study everything and watch everything and remember everything, that's just not how my head works," he said.
There are moments cemented in his memory, particularly watching Tiger Woods' emotional victory in 2019. Morikawa joined his Cal teammates at an off-campus house a few of them shared, stuffed as many couches as they could together then sat transfixed as Woods captured his fifth title.
Three years later, Morikawa's vantage point will be far different. So will the stakes. He arrived in Georgia this week not as a college kid watching the Masters on a massive TV from parts unknown but as the third-ranked player in the world, one determined to tackle one of the most iconic courses in the world on his terms, mostly because trying to do it the other way didn't work.
Morikawa kept being told he needed to hit a draw consistently if he wanted to contend. So he spent his first two Masters trying to work the ball right to left even though his preferred shot is a cut that starts left and drifts back to the right. He finished tied for 44th during the patron-free and fall-swept 2020 Masters and while he improved to 18th last spring, he was never a factor.
He'd seen enough. He figures the five draws he tried to hit off the tee on the front nine in 2020 amounted to more than he would normally hit during an entire year. It's not that he can't hit one. He'd just prefer not to, mostly because of what happens when the ball doesn't go where he wants. If he's hitting a cut and it misses, he still has a pretty good idea of where he'll end up. Not so much when his swing goes one way and the ball goes another.
Augusta is hard enough as it is without overthinking things, which is exactly what Morikawa felt he was doing repeatedly during his first two trips to the Masters.
"I was just making it so much tougher because I was trying to hit these shots that, you know, aren't my go-to shots," he said.
Things tend to work out when Morikawa trusts his instincts, like the cut 3-wood at Harding Park during the final round of the 2020 PGA that set up the clinching eagle and turned him into a major champion at 23. His near flawless triumph in the British Open at Royal St. George's last summer made him the first player since Bobby Jones to need eight starts or less to claim multiple majors.
All that success has raised his profile, his world ranking and his own expectations. He arrived at Augusta rested following a tie for ninth at the Match Play last month. He feels his game is close to where it needs to be. When he steps onto the tee on Thursday morning, his mind won't drift to trying to become the first player since Jordan Spieth in 2015 to win consecutive majors or the chance to etch himself into the fabric of history at a place that embraces it like no other.
It'll just be him. The ball. And a mission that remains the same since he first picked up a club.
"Like there are so many guys that think about so much," he said. "And yeah, it works one week, works this other week. But, like, just get in the ball in the hole. Figure out how to get it into the hole."

Man's Video Of Deadly Tornado Goes Viral (Video)
Video (below) an elderly man took inside of an April 9, 2015 tornado that ripped through Fairdale, Illinois, has gone viral.
Clarence "Clem" Schultz, an 85-year-old Fairdale resident, caught video of the tornado from his bedroom after the forecast appeared to show the twister missing his house, WLS reports.
"I was totally convinced it was going to go to the west," he told the news station. "It was going to miss us. So I figured I'm safe up here on this second floor taking a video of it.It changed its mind, I guess, and came right at me. I don't know. I wasn't scared. I think survival set in."
The tornado wound up taking a different path and going straight for him.
As the video rolled, Schultz collapsed into a falling chimney and became buried underneath the rubble of his destroyed house. Schultz woke up under a pile of debris and was able to crawl towards a first responder.
"Don't look down," the first responder said, according to Schultz.
"Why?" Schultz replied.
"Because your wife is under that beam, and she's dead," the responder said.
Schultz's wife of 25 years, Geri, was killed in the tornado after being crushed by a beam.
Schultz is now planning to attend a memorial dedication for victims of the twister on April 9 in Fairdale, despite having moved to Genoa, Illinois, in 2015, The Daily Herald reports.
The video he shot was remarkably salvaged in the tornado, and he ultimately decided to share it with others after some convincing. It even took Schultz himself several days to work up the courage to view it.
"I did not know if I wanted to see that video," he told The Daily Herald.
The video has since been used by tornado researchers as a reference for studies.
"The guy upstairs says, 'You got to [...] share that,' Schultz told WLS. "I figure that's that the reason I'm alive."
The shocking video is set to be shown at an atmospheric science convention in California, and it has gone viral since being released publicly.
"I'm proud of it," Schultz told The Daily Herald. "My video is saving lives."

Times are changing, guys. This blog used to be my primary outlet for all things beautiful, amusing and thought-provoking. I used to write in here two or three times a week, and now my posts have dwindled to a few times a year.
Art of Wore has never been about making money for me. It's always been about documenting my love for aesthetics and adventure. When it started to feel like I needed to pay to promote posts on Facebook just so my followers would see them, and when it started to feel my worth was being measured by Instagram likes, and when it started to feel like maybe I was divulging too much personal information ... well, I knew it was time to rethink my mission with Art of Wore.
For the time being, I'll keep this site alive and running, but mainly as an archive. I've been browsing through old posts, and it's been really fun to see the evolution of my taste over the past seven years. That's as good a reward as any for all the time and energy I've put into my humble corner of the internet. Maybe I'll post here and there, if the mood strikes. But for the most part, you can find me on Instagram, which I update every few weeks. I've set my account to private, but I'm always open to new followers.
I hope you're all finding satisfying, healthy, positive ways to use the internet these days. It's not as innocent as it once was. Feels like it's never been crazier or occupied more of our daily brain space. Don't forget to take breaks. And give yourself permission to shut off entirely every now and then. There's no shame in reprioritizing how you spend your time. That's essentially what I'm doing with Art of Wore, moving it lower on my list.
Dormant, but not forgotten. Beloved, but repurposed. Fun, but in repose.

Your Mines In Kabul
The following appeared in the Totentanz Webzine.
Shortly after the release of the very short "Sufiq" on Soleilmoon, Staalplaat presents us here a triple-CD (packaged in a simple jewel case, by the way and with a booklet printed in Kabul) of Muslimgauze works. the 23 tracks of "Your Mines in Kabul" were recorded by Bryn Jones in 1998, and are related to the EP "Lahore & Marseille".
With this CDs, Muslimgauze was still and totally into Arabian music, but the sounds used here are more distorted and looped that on some of his later recordings. The drums, clearly acoustic, are treated and the rhythms are very repetitive. Some tracks could very well be played in clubs, since they tempo and loops would fit very well any industrial play-list (and show why Bryan Jones has collaborated with Sonar on a record). The melodic passages are in the background and less present than on "Sufiq". They are sliced, slightly echoed, and add to the industrial touch of "Your Mines in Kabul". The structures of the song seem slightly less Arabic than on other release, at least the repetition of rhythmic loops intertwined with breaks and very fast beats sounds more occidental to me.
Otherwise, this is a "normal" Muslimgauze album. The atmosphere is still the same, focused entirely on Middle Eastern percussions, patterns and themas. Some strange vocals are added on some songs, for on example on the pair "Gujarati Translator" / "Translator of Gujarati". Finally, the third CD is a 30 minute remix of "Lahore", fast, hypnotic and catchy.
Any Muslimgauze fans will be sent to Heaven by "Your Mines in Kabul". All the tracks are good, and you have plenty of them to listen to. Another proof the incredible productivity of Bryn Jones, and another very enjoyable record.

The following appeared in Incursion Publishing.
Here's one for the collectors. Recorded around the time of Lahore & Marseille, a double-disc EP released in 1998 on Soleilmoon, we have a re-visitation of that characteristic sound, and instead of it being spread over two EP-length discs, it's spread over 140 minutes and three discs instead.
The big, distorted beats are front and centre here, with moments of respite few and far between. When those moments do occur, they emerge as the most powerful and hypnotic points on the disc. Take, for instance, the last two minutes of the track "Izlamabad Carpet Boy". All of a sudden, the five and a half minutes of crunched-up beats come to a grinding halt, and we are treated to what feels like utter silence - a stringed instrument is plucked away over a dark and hypnotic drone, peppered with crackling vinyl. It feels like you've been walking over a safe terrain, and then you realize.. you'd better be careful for what could lie beneath your feet (and once you view the photo on the rear of the disc, this all comes full circle).
However, these moments are limited on the disc, and for the most part things run pretty much "on safe ground" for Muslimgauze fans. The first disc is the heaviest of the three, the second disc borders on being a little too much, even for a die-hard like myself. The obviously improvised keyboard notes plainly played over top of the beats sound childish and sketchy, at best. This has not been a fault of his in the past -- sketchiness is one of Muslimgauze's endearments -- but here things get to be a little much, especially around the latter half of Disc 2.
The third disc, a thirty-minute version of "Lahore", with the subtitle "Extended Version - Speed Up", is a non-stop assault of a pummeling backbeat, with at first very little to distinguish it apart from the original version. But things change to great dramatic effect about halfway through, and this disc is perhaps the most engaging of the three.
Once again a beautiful package has been put together by Staalplaat for this release (hand-numbered and limited to 700 copies), and they have fit three discs inside a single-sized CD package. The third disc is the most difficult to get to, as you must snap open the jewel case to extract the disc from its position in behind. Silk-textured paper and black text printed directly onto the jewel case showcase Staalplaat's undying devotion to this artist, packaging each release as a unique treasure.
Your Mines In Kabul is a worthwhile release on the whole, but one that is really meant for the collectors. I suppose it could have been edited down to two discs (some might say one), but when it comes to Muslimgauze, the case has never really been "less is more".

The following appeared on FluxEuropa.
Muslimgauze is the work of Bryn Jones from Manchester who sadly died last year. He was a workaholic and for over 15 years he has produced well over a hundred releases. The first thing that struck me about this was its packaging - a single CD jewel case containing three CDs, two at the front and one encased behind ...slightly awkward but pretty novel I must admit. The first of the CDs, MINE 1, begins with 'Tangier - Zeen' which sets the agenda for what's in store with its heavy distorted electronic beats ripping through from the word go. Soon these are accompanied by some ethnic string samples. 'Ravi And Kaldesh Mukherjee' sounds a bit like an ethnic version of Kraftwerk. It's pretty clever the way the sounds fade in on this one. The CD continues along these lines with many more interesting samples particularly the use of the female ones on 'Gujarati Translator' which is brilliant. MINE 2 opens with 'Burnt Bungalow of Simi' (I love these titles!) which has a very rhythmic percussion sound. The beats are a lot less harsh than on the first CD that's until you get to 'Ascend Babel In Oanj'. Heavy distorted rumbles make the backbone of this track as they fade up and down whilst electronic sounds and female vocals are thrown in until it stops abruptly. 'Sublultan' continues in the same way, the distortion on here is potent and blends well with its dark rhythms and melodies which swoop in. 'Jamiat Zirt' has more of an industrial techno sound accompanying those ethnic samples. The final track, 'Bismillah', is pretty odd weird crackling which distorts nicely for about a minute and a half. MINE 3 is an extended and sped up version of 'Lahore' which originally featured on the Lahore and Marseille EP which I haven't heard. This though lasts about half an hour and it's back to those heavy distorted beats which are again accompanied by many ethnic samples. Triple CDs are usually a bit of a mouthful with this being no exception but when you get round this psychological fear you should find each CD merits recognition as something brilliant. Just don't go putting yourself off by playing them one after the other!!!!!
review by John Marshall
FluxEuropa (November 17, 2000)
The following appeared in Freq E-zine.
That title gives a certain indication of Bryn Jones' direction onto the Indian sub-Continent and surrounding areas in this album, packaged with three disc jammed (literally) into one jewel case, with track details etc printed directly onto the plastic. Add in the beautifully-printed high-grade paper of the inserts with their disturbingly artistic photos of artificially-limbed survivors of encounters with land mines in Afghanistan and it all adds up to a nicely-done set in a limited edition of 700.
Musically, Mine 1 starts off harsh and keeps on going that way - but harsh and surprisingly funky, with the typical 1998-era stepping groove which Jones was heavily into at that time. Oh yes, and the bass, lots and lots of the stuff. It belches out the rhythms, shakes the harmonics and disturbances of the mid and treble loops, curls up into beats of brain-pounding intensity. The beats themselves fracture, stop for half-breaths, lope across each other with hypnotic irregularity. Jones' constant evolution and instant self-mixing took him into places which other more-digital, less hand-on producers rarely achieve in the same organic manner. What's more, it's all done with tape-loops, cassettes and effects - no samplers, kids.
This is the sort of stuff to drive the listener's head into a whirling dervish-style of orbit - the rhythmic iteration where it all comes from, and thanks to the Muslimgauze methodology of stream of consciousness extended output, the extremes of groove and beat are reached, swept through and taken around the block again and again. As the CD passes through varying percussion styles and levels of distortion, the effect is nearly delirious, thanks especially to the attenuated radio voice cassette samples brought up into sometimes eerie close-up.
From start to finish of the second disc, the percussive onslaught continues, deeper down on the bass, washed across in smears of low end while the metallic thwack of the drums drills nails into the skull. Flutes and other wind instruments make up the closest there is here to melody, tambours, bells, shakers and all manner of clatter and pulse weave into harmonium wheezes, distended bloats of the undertow... In other words, more of the same, doubled and reworked into the stupendous miasma of otherworldly transmissions from an exotic place slightly related to the world of North-South/West-East geopolitical and economic reality, anchored by imagistic titles - "Tongue Tied In Sind", "Karakoram Visa Office", "Papier-Mache Efiji Of Bishan Bedi", and most shuddersome, "The Last Tamil Tiger Skinned".
Finally, the Soleilmoon EP "Lahore And Marseilles" is sped up and extended into "Lahore" for Mine 3 - that's into thirty-one minutes of chugging rhythms and that fearsome bass again, taken, twisted, run through a noisy spice grinder and dealt out again in coils of spiralled hiss and once-melodic insertions. Queasy may be the word, or staggering, and by the time the track ends in a squitter of accumulated tape-hiss and that same main loop, it almost feels like a trip half way around the world. As a whole Your Mines In Kabul approaches the paradigm of Muslimgauze beat repetition made transcendent; sometimes brash enough but also demanding endurance and immersion.

The following appeared on Heimdallr.
What a superb sleeve! Staalplaat overworked all over again to offer a magnificent realization of Bryn Jones, always in the same musical style generated since 1998, very influenced by the dub and raga rhythms, mingling the ethnic sounds to the more industrial distortions. This generosity has no limit as there are 3 CDs, accompanied by a remarkable work to the level of the artistic conception of the packing and photographs, on a hardback and slightly rough paper. The first CD contains ethnic sounds based on dub and raga rhythms, while the second one, a lot more interesting, reinforces the work of sound manipulations that Bryn uses, making the music a lot more attractive and varied. The third CD constitutes some kind of a gift, being an extended version of the Lahore track appeared years ago on the "Lahore & Marseille" EP, which is no more available today. The specific sound of Bryn Jones enlarges more and more year after year, widening the impressive palette of this bulimic artist, allying with genius and good taste his pure convictions, for an unequalled result which seems .. unfailing.
Magnificent! A must for all fans of Muslimgauze.

An elegant and sweeping story of a Chinese family's history, trace follows the footsteps of four generations as their homes and identities are challenged.
"I support you when you need, so that you support me when I need."
An elegant and sweeping story of a Chinese family's history, trace follows the footsteps of four generations as their homes and identities are challenged. Jeff Ho brings life to his great grandmother, grandmother, and mother through considerate storytelling as they recount their pasts, leading to a paralleled present.
Great Grandmother fled the Japanese during World War II by escaping China into Hong Kong, a traumatic event that's rippled down the family line. Grandmother married into the family after a childhood of poverty that will always stay with her. Mother decided to leave Hong Kong for Canada with her two sons, pursuing more opportunities, though dissatisfied with her son's desire to focus on the piano rather than math. Though pain is a constant, there are plenty of wisecracks, games of mah jong, and familiar family anecdotes swirling through Ho's genealogical journey of survival.
trace is performed with two pianos; they stand in for any male dialogue. Their lines are revealed in the book.
The book includes the music.
Jeff Ho is a Toronto-based theatre artist, originally from Hong Kong. As a playwright, his works include Iphigenia and the Furies (On Taurian Land); Antigone: 方; and trace. He has held residencies with the Stratford Festival, Nightswimming, Cahoots, the Banff Playwrights Lab, and Factory Theatre, and is a Bulmash-Siegel Playwright-in-Residence with Tarragon Theatre. Jeff has received a Toronto Theatre Critics Award for Best New Canadian Play for Iphigenia and the Furies, has been thrice nominated for the Dora Mavor Moore Award—twice for performance and once as a playwright—and has been awarded a Harold Award. He is a graduate of the National Theatre School.
"Ho's Chinese-Canadian immigration saga will resonate with anyone whose family has been forced to relocate, conveying universal themes of hardship, escape and hope distilled through the anxiety of defying great expectations to chart one's own course."
- Jordan Bimm, NOW Magazine
"With immigration issues continuing to divide countries around the world, trace is a timely, insightful and well-told tale that humanizes one family's experience."

University of Alaska Southeast is Newest Member of Interstate Passport Network, Third Regional University in Alaska to join National Initiative
The University of Alaska Southeast is the 42nd higher education institution in the country to join the Interstate Passport Network.
Date of Press Release: June 2, 2020
The University of Alaska Southeast is the 42nd higher education institution in the country to join the Interstate Passport Network. The third regional university of the University of Alaska system, the University of Alaska Southeast (UAS) joins the University of Alaska Anchorage and the University of Alaska Fairbanks as a member of the national program of two- and four-year colleges and universities that streamlines the transfer process for students.
"The University of Alaska Southeast is pleased to join other Alaskan universities in the Interstate Passport Network," said UAS Chancellor Rick Caulfield. "Our goal is to make it even easier for students to access quality educational opportunities no matter their location."
With campuses in Juneau, Ketchikan and Sitka, UAS serves all of southeast Alaska through campus and online programs. Taking advantage of its unique location that includes the Inside Passage and the Tongass National Forest, the university offers programs in biology and marine biology, environmental science, mine training and fisheries technology, as well as teacher education and educational leadership, liberal arts, business and public administration and health information management. In addition, UAS maintains formal partnerships with the Sealaska Heritage Institute, the Central Council of Tlingit and Haida Indian Tribes of Alaska, and Ketchikan Indian Community – advancing the cultures of the Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian peoples.
University of Alaska Southeast serves approximately 5,000 undergraduates and offers 75 degrees and certificates through the School of Arts and Sciences, School of Career Education and Alaska College of Education. It supports a wide array of research partnerships and fosters partners in industry to provide state-of-the-art training equipment, internships and career paths.
The Interstate Passport program was founded in 2011, and became fully operational in 2016. Students who earn a Passport, which encompasses lower-division general education and is based on learning outcomes instead of course-by-course articulation, can transfer to a Network institution in another state and have their learning recognized and general education credits accepted. All students from UAS who earn a Passport can now more easily transfer to any Network member institution without having to repeat or take additional coursework to satisfy general education requirements. "I am very excited that UAS has become a part of the Interstate Passport Network! This program will allow students from other states to transfer easily to UAS and have their credits counted as they pursue their education and career goals." said UAS Provost Karen Carey.
Nearly four in 10 college students will transfer institutions at least once during their college careers, and almost a quarter of those will enroll in an institution in another state, according to data from the National Student Clearinghouse. Until now, transferring between schools – especially across state lines – has been made more difficult and expensive by lengthy credit evaluation processes and loss of credit already earned.
"We are very pleased that the University of Alaska Southeast joined Network days after the University of Alaska Fairbanks. Now all students enrolled in the University of Alaska system can benefit by earning a Passport." said Anna Galas, director of academic leadership initiatives at WICHE. "Even for students who don't transfer, earning a Passport can be beneficial. Because of its specifically defined learning outcomes, the Passport can become a widely recognizable documented completion benchmark from which employers can gauge a prospect's skill level and readiness for a job."
Interstate Passport is a program, based at the Western Interstate Commission on Higher Education (WICHE) that facilitates block transfer of lower-division general education attainment based on multistate faculty-developed learning outcomes among its participating institutions. After years of research and development, the Interstate Passport Network, whose members are two-year and four-year regionally accredited public and private non-profit colleges and universities, was launched in July 2016. Member institutions began awarding Passports in the 2016-2017 academic year. For more information, visit the Interstate Passport website.

Currently 42 institutions are members of the Interstate Passport Network. ALABAMA – Community College of the Air Force; ALASKA – University of Alaska Anchorage, University of Alaska Fairbanks, University of Alaska Southeast; ARKANSAS – University of Arkansas Community College at Batesville; CALIFORNIA – Cerritos College, College of the Siskiyous; COLORADO – Adams State University; HAWAII – Hawaiʻi Community College, Honolulu Community College, Kapiʻolani Community College, Kauaʻi Community College, Leeward Community College, Maui College, University of Hawaiʻi Hilo, University of Hawaiʻi Mānoa, University of Hawaiʻi West Oʻahu, and Windward Community College; IDAHO – North Idaho College; ILLINOIS – The Chicago School of Professional Psychology; MINNESOTA – Concordia University, St. Paul; NORTH DAKOTA – Lake Region State College, North Dakota State College of Science, University of North Dakota; OREGON – Blue Mountain Community College, Western Oregon University; SOUTH DAKOTA – Black Hills State University, Dakota State University, Northern State University, South Dakota School of Mines & Technology, South Dakota State University, University of South Dakota; UTAH – Dixie State University, Salt Lake Community College, Snow College, Southern Utah University, University of Utah, Utah State University, Utah Valley University, Weber State University; and WYOMING – Laramie County Community College, and University of Wyoming.
Western Interstate Commission on Higher Education (WICHE)
For over 60 years, the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE) has been the leading agency serving higher education throughout and beyond the American West. WICHE is one of four U.S. regional interstate compacts, with a multifaceted portfolio of research, policy, resource-sharing, and student-access programs and priorities. WICHE's 16 member states include: Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawai'i, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, Wyoming, and entities (including Guam and the Northern Marianas Islands) under auspices of the U.S. Pacific Territories and Freely Associated States.

Black Maternal Health Week: Black mothers matter
Tara Michel | 4/20/2020, 2:18 p.m.

Black women in the United States are more likely to die from pregnancy and childbirth than women of any other ethnicity. Black women are affected by conditions that affect their health during and after pregnancy, including high blood pressure and diabetes. From April 11 to April 17 Black Maternal Health Week was observed and Rep. Alma Adams (NC-12), Sen. Kamala Harris (CA), and over 60 cosponsors have introduced a resolution.
Black Maternal Health Week is celebrated every year and brings national attention to the United States maternal health crisis in the Black community and the importance of reducing maternal mortality and morbidity among Black women and birthing persons. Some 40 Black women per 100,000 die and 13 white women per 100,000 die in terms of pregnancy complications.
African Americans are dying due to the coronavirus at alarming rates and the fact that we are in a pandemic makes this a double crisis for Black women. "It's a time when we really feel joyful about giving birth but under these conditions women are stressed and they have a lot of anxiety about even going into the hospital," says Rep. Alma Adams, co-founder, and co-chair of the Black Maternal Health Caucus. "It's a pandemic on top of a pandemic."
Many Black women experience challenges including fertility treatments, housing, and healthcare. They are not given quality care due to their skin color and are treated with disrespect. One of the problems is doctors and healthcare professionals are not listening when Black women say they are feeling pain, or that their bodies do not feel right. Healthcare workers often dismiss the problems they are feeling.
The focus of this year's Black Maternal Health week is to help black women have healthy pregnancies and healthy postpartum care. These are important to ensure the survival of Black women and reduce severe maternal morbidity. The resolution this year will help our Black mothers be able to go home with their children and not be left in the hospital to die and leave their child to be raised by someone else.
"The potential ramifications that could come with giving birth during the coronavirus pandemic—specifically a pandemic that is disproportionately impacting African Americans—is of particular concern to Black women who were already facing a maternal health crisis in our country," said Sen. Harris. "Now, more than ever, we need to address this issue. During Black Maternal Health Week, we must continue in the fight to ensure Black women are taken seriously when they speak about their health concerns, and remove disparities and implicit bias from our health care system."

There are few honours that can be bestowed upon a city as prestigious as being made host to the Olympic Games. It's an opportunity for a city to boast its culture to the world and take advantage of the gleeful and spend-happy tourists who come pouring into town. Smaller, lesser-known cities especially use this chance to put themselves on the map, in the hopes of attracting tourism for years to come.
But do these benefits last beyond the duration of the Games? What happens after the stadiums empty, the podiums come down and the ski ramps are disassembled? The luge runs were spectacular during the few weeks of the Games, but what good are they now? While the Olympics can provide a little boom for a city, it is debatable whether hosting them is actually worth the accompanying bust.
Montreal's Olympic upset It's a common misconception that hosting the Olympics is a lucrative endeavour. In fact, the first city to profit from hosting since the 1930s was Lillehammer, Norway, which hosted in 1994. Montreal, unfortunately, was no exception to the rule. When it was decided in 1970 that Montreal was to be the host of the 1976 Summer Olympics, the announcement was met with positivity and excitement. True, the honour of playing host had a $310-million price tag attached to it. This money, however, was seen as an investment in the city: Hotels, restaurants and businesses would surely benefit from the added tourism, and Montreal would get its 15 minutes of fame. The then-mayor of the city, Jean Drapeau, is remembered for his wonderfully misinformed line: "The Olympics can no more have a debt than a man can have a baby."
The city met the undertaking with enthusiasm and energy, the first project being the Olympic Stadium. The Stade Olympique-or "The Big O," as it's known to Montreal residents and snickering adolescents alike-eventually became home to the Expos, but was originally built as the main location of the '76 games. The stadium's ambitious design included an Olympic-sized swimming pool and a retractable roof. The roof was to be controlled by a tower of close to 170 metres in height, half a metre taller than the Washington monument, making it the world's tallest inclined structure.
Construction did not start on the Stadium until 1973 and from the beginning, the Stadium was fraught with problems. It was not actually ready for opening day, as the construction workers went on strike. Once construction was completed, the deteriortion continued with this notoriously problematic building. To add insult to injury, the building that was literally falling apart had incurred a huge debt, causing the Stadium to take on another nickname-The Big Owe. The total cost of the stadium, which came in at close to $3-billion, was only settled in 2006.
While the Olympic Stadium was arguably the biggest problem of the '76 games, it was by no means the only problem. The Olympic Torch was doused out by a rainstorm. Fortunately, a quick-thinking official relit it, with his cigarette lighter. This blasphemy was quickly undone, as the torch was extinguished again, and then re-lit with a flame from a "back-up torch." Canada left the games with a paltry collection of medals-five silver and six bronze. It remains the only Summer Games in Olympic history where the host country did not win a single gold medal.
Though the Stadium was finally completed, and the enormous debt eventually paid off, the Montreal Olympics continue to be the most expensive Games in Olympic history.
Money well wasted In order to be considered as a host city for the Olympics, a city must put in an official bid. If they are "short listed," the city is given the opportunity to showcase itself in an elaborate attempt to seduce the IOC. Such a seduction can cost millions of dollars. In 2001, Toronto spent an estimated $40-million in their bid for the 2008 Olympics-money that may have been well spent, were it nor for the racist remarks of then-Mayor Mel Lastman. The outspoken Lastman, when asked about his trip to Mombasa, Kenya to support the Toronto bid, was quoted as saying, "What the hell do I want to go to a place like Mombasa? I'm sort of scared about going out there, but the wife is really nervous. I just see myself in a pot of boiling water with all these natives dancing around me."
Lastman apologized profusely for the insensitive remarks, but it is believed that-although Toronto's hold on the Olympics was tenuous at best-this one moment of brutishness cost the city whatever chance it had.
While some would argue that the prestige of hosting the Olympics is worth the astronomical expenses, groups such as the Bread Not Circuses Coalition and NoLondon2012 maintain that the money could be better spent. The BNCC argued vehemently against Toronto's bid, asserting that the government was not being forthcoming about the actual cost of the bid. As the group's name suggests, their belief was that the millions of dollars spent on a bid-not to mention the billions that would be spent if Toronto were actually chosen-should be used to create affordable housing as opposed to refurbishing the Rogers Centre (née SkyDome).
NoLondon2012 has similar arguments-the British government has made several claims stating that the Olympics would be a positive experience for the capital. They claim that 3,000 new jobs would be created, that tourism in the city would be boosted both during and after the games, and that young people would be encouraged to take part in sports. Each of these claims is met with disagreement from NL2012: They believe that since London is already a significant tourist city, the tiny surge of visitors will not create enough of a difference to justify the money spent on the games. They also argue that the businesses that would most profit from hosting are those that are backing the bid; advertising companies such as London First will stand to make a huge profit off the games.

Существует несколько вариантов значения и версий происхождения

В чешском языке имя Дана означает «данная».

Дана — современная форма имен Деница, Даница, образованная от общеславянского «денница», означающее «утренняя звезда» (название планеты Венера). В этом значении имя Дана употребляли в Болгарии и Сербии.
Обычно любит Руслана и Молли

Дана — краткая форма женского имени Данута, «Богиня луны». Имя Данута употреблялось в Беларуси, Польше, Чехии, произошло, возможно, от литовского «дочь неба», либо от латинского «donata» — «данная, дарованная».

Имя Дана может выступать в болгарском языке как сокращённая форма имён Богдана, Йордана, Данаила.

Еврейское имя Дана (), производное от Даниела, одна из форм мужского имени Даниил, с древнееврейского означает «Бог мой судья».

Имя Дана () из персидского языка, и означает «знающий, мудрый».

Арабское имя Дана () означает «большая и крупная жемчужина».

Кельтское имя Дана (Danu) происходит от имени кельтской богини созидания Дану (Danu), считающейся прародительницей Племён Дану (племени богов). Этот божественный народ, по легенде, некогда правил Ирландией до прихода Сыновей Миля (людей), предков современных ирландцев. После поражения в битве с Сыновьями Миля племена Дану переместились в подземный мир Ирландии и со временем преобразились в эльфов, фей и гоблинов, а Дана стала покровительницей эльфов и фей. В данной интерпретации имя Дана произносят как Дэйна.

Baseball Falls in Two Hard-Fought Games
By Alyson Wong | March 16, 2022

This past Sunday, Cornell baseball competed in a double header against Georgetown University and University of Maryland, but dropped both games despite putting up a fight against their opponents.
In the Red's (2-6, 0-0 Ivy) first game of the day against Georgetown (9-6), the Red jumped out to a quick 3-0 lead by the third inning. The lead quickly dissipated as the Hoyas rallied back, scoring the next seven runs. They led the game 7-3 by the bottom of the seventh inning.
Cornell did not go down easy. With only two outs to go, sophomore catcher Nathan Waugh started off a ninth inning rally off with a two-run home run, bringing the deficit to only two runs. After a strike-out by junior pinch-hitter Sam Kaplan, the Red was down to their final out of the game, but the team broke down, showed grit and strung together well at-bat to retake the lead.
Freshman shortstop Ryan Porter tripled to center, followed by a RBI single by freshman left-fielder Kyle Musser, cutting the score to 7-6. Next, junior right-fielder Elijiah Diaz walked, putting the go-ahead run on first base.
This brought the Red's hottest hitter, junior third-baseman Joe Hollerbach, up to the plate. Hollerbach, who already hit a home run in the first inning and doubled in the eighth, hit a two-run double to left to retake an 8-7 lead for the Red.
"We showed good fight in the first game," said Waugh. "It was an opportunity for the team to really show that we had some fight, come back, and take it to extra innings. We had a lot of guys come off the bench and put together really good at bats, just doing whatever they can to help the team win."
Leaderboard 2
Unfortunately, the Red's late ninth inning rally was not enough to secure the win. The Hoyas tied the score in the bottom of the ninth, courtesy of a home run by second-baseman Ethan Stern, and they walked it off in the bottom of the tenth with an RBI single.
"They're just a quality baseball team, and we made some mistakes and I made some mistakes that contributed to us losing," Waugh continued. "But, also, we played pretty well. I think we showed that that's a team we can beat."
In their second game of the day against No. 24 University of Maryland (13-3), the Red were shut down by the opposition's strong starting pitching performance and unrelenting offense. Maryland's starter Ryan Ramsey shut down Cornell's offense, pitching six innings, dealing 13 strikeouts and giving up only one hit and three walks. The Terrapins were just as overpowering on the offensive side as well. They blew the game wide open in the fourth inning with eight runs, and had scored 11 unanswered runs by the fifth.
One of the only offensive highlights for Cornell came courtesy of junior second-baseman Ryan Ross, who hit a grand slam in the top of the eighth inning, cutting the deficit to 11-5. Maryland would go on to score one more run in the bottom of the eighth, bringing the final score to 12-5.
"[Maryland] has a lot of talent," Waugh said. "They have some really good arms, and we just couldn't get it done I guess. Again, we played well. I think we showed good competitiveness against them, especially playing a big school, a big team like that."
This coming weekend, the Red will look to bounce back in a three game series against University of Richmond (10-4).
"I think it's just going to be about consistency," Waugh said, on potential improvements the team could make. "We've shown to be a really good baseball team at times, and then at times it doesn't show up."
The team will hit the road to play in Richmond, Virginia, with both Friday and Saturday games scheduled for 1 p.m. and the third game scheduled for noon on Sunday.

If you're hoping to expand your web store into a new country or reach multilingual markets, your first step is likely going to be translating your eCommerce site. 72% of customers are more likely to buy a product if the website is in their language, according to the Harvard Business Review. And for over half of customers (56.2%, to be exact), the ability to shop in their native language is more important than price.
Translating your website can be one of the most effective strategies to boost engagement and sales. But where do you begin?
Below, we've collected the best practices for translating eCommerce sites, no matter what your budget.
No matter whether you're running a huge catalog or are selling a few boutique items, you can save a lot of time and money by taking some time at the beginning of the process to think about your needs. Do you have a lot of inventory overturn? Do you need to recreate a particular kind of brand voice? What's your timeframe and translation budget?
With the answers to these questions in mind, you can write a project scope document. It's a combination of a project plan and a wishlist, and it gives your translation partner a clear vision of what you need and want. Your document should include big-picture goals and little details, like what source files you have access to and how much review you'd like built into the process.
For the key parts of your eCommerce site–any large branding copy, major marketing assets, landing-page material–consider bringing in translators with subject matter expertise in your area.
Your products are specialized and need specific, accurate descriptions–and so you need a translator who understands the nuances of your industry. A subject matter expert will know just the right way to express a concept, or will know exactly what kind of safety documentation is required in a country.
Subject matter experts with marketing expertise can help you with any transcreation or creative adaptation you need to do on the website for marketing purposes. Sometimes, it might be easier to re-create a particular paragraph of content in your target language than to twist yourself into knots trying to get the syntax just right.
If you regularly cycle through a huge catalog of items, you might be thinking that your volume is way too large and your turnaround time is too short for a regular translation process. In these cases, sometimes machine translation is a good option. Machine translation options can give you quick, relatively accurate translations, and in high-volume situations this can be an efficient way of getting your web copy translated.
A way to balance the speed of machine translation with the accuracy of manual translation is to have the first pass machine-translated and then have a translator review the text. They can keep an eye out for any inaccuracies and correct major errors, but won't have to do the bulk of the work.
If you're using the same vocabulary over and over in your product descriptions, using translation memory as part of your automated translation process can save you even more time. Over time, your translation software can "learn" key words and phrases so you don't have to keep re-translating them.
Once you have the translations the way you want them, you can do a final pass to make sure the web design looks right. This can mean replicating your brand design in another language, or adapting your website's design so it's in keeping with the eCommerce standards of your target country. For example, some countries prefer brightly colored, highly informational product catalogs; in other countries, clean and minimalist product images are the way to go. You can do some UX research in-country to learn shoppers' behavior, and then implement these choices in the design of your website.
With these best practices in mind, you can efficiently translate and localize an eCommerce site.

Q: How to access meteor.users profile I am trying to simply query the name of a user given the _id like so;
profile = Meteor.users.find({_id: userId}, {fields: {"profile" : 1}});

EDIT**
The userId will come from a url parameter (I'm using it to route to user profile pages)
Assuming there is a "name" field in the profile, I would assume calling profile.name would give the name of the user. But it shows profile.name is undefined. console.log(profile) shows [object Object]. I've also tried
name = Meteor.users.find({_id: userId}, {fields: {"profile.name" : 1}});

but this yields the same thing, console.log(name) -> [object Object]
name.name -> undefined (in case it returned an object like {name: "jon doe"} i would call name.name)
What am I doing wrong?

Tomorrow is the LAST day to vote for "The Specials" for a Webby Award.
Why is important for you to vote for "The Specials" for a Webby Award?
Think about how under-represented disability programs are in the media.
Think about how few REAL people with disabilities you see in Film and TV.
If "The Specials" win a Webby Award and beat out all other non-disability programming, it will show the media execs that there IS an interest in disability programing.
Why is that important? I believe that the more that that society is exposed to the reality of disability, the less disablism there will be. The more society see people with disability as just PEOPLE the better acceptance there will be. I strongly believe that with more disability programming (Paralympics, programs devoted to people with disabilities, people with disabilities featured in regular programing, etc), people with disabilities will be better accepted. This has certainly been the case with other minority groups.
Please support The Specials in their effort to win a Webby Award.

I recommend Laser Lisse Highly!!

My experience was amazing. Dr. Ferral and her assistant were professional and very caring. I would recommend her very highly.
Dr. Farrell is amazing! I love the results from my treatments.
On time and super friendly! I can't wait to get another treatment.
Dr. Farrell is amazing. I saw results after the first treatment and continue to see results with each treatment (3 in total). She is so bright and personable it is a pleasure to receive services with her. Her office is so inviting and her staff are an absolute delight. I highly recommend Dr. Farrell for sculpting.
It was so easy to get an appointment and the process was painless.
I felt so much more confident and relaxed knowing a doctor and NP were performing the service. I had unbelievable results with the laser hair removal procedure after only 2 visits. It was also great that I was taken back to the room right when I arrived, and the procedure took just a matter of minutes. It was pretty painless too!
I've been eager to try laser hair removal for a while and when I found out Dr. Farrell was doing it I was in! My bikini treatment went so well that at my 2nd treatment I added my underarms. It's not painful at all- in fact it's less painful than waxing!
Such a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. I was totally comfortable getting lip, chin and bikini treatments. Can't wait for summer! I am so excited about this!!
The skin tightening is awesome! I have tried lots of different facial treatments in the past, and this one by far is the easiest with the least downtime. The redness lasted less than an hour for me, and I felt the skin getting tighter right away. Now after two treatments, I can start to see a difference in my fine lines. My face feels really smooth and has a dewy glow. Two more treatments to go, can't wait.
I had been so afraid to try laser hair removal, because I have heard from friends for years that it is so painful. When my friend told me about Laser Lisse, I decided to give it a try. It was not bad at all, and I didn't need any pain medication! The laser has a special cooling device that makes it so easily tolerable. Thanks Dr Farrell and Laser Lisse!!
I highly recommend Laser Lisse. The results are great. I saw noticeable reduction in hair after only 2 treatments, and it was much more comfortable than other laser treatments I have tried in the past.
I am excited about Laser Lisse. The treatment is working so well. It has been 4 weeks since my first visit and the hair has barely grown back. I haven't had to shave yet!
A joy to visit Laser Lisse, as you see an experienced Medical Doctor, Dr. Farrell, who operates in the utmost professional way and does so in a timely fashion. Great all around!


1987-08-21 Hood Hebron, NY	 14:09 Strong early "Hood" includes a long, slow-tempo intro (to 3:50) with dogs barking in the background, and a soaring and unusually long (for this period) Trey-led jam, prompting Fishman to comment "that's why I'm in the band."
1989-11-10 Hood Clinton, NY	 11:19 As a good bouncy jam builds, there are a few times when Trey sustains a single note, and Page and Mike fill in nicely.
1990-05-06 Hood New Haven, CT	 12:23 Solid version all around, with good interplay, great Fish, and Machine Gun Trey makes a strong showing.
1990-05-10 Hood Northampton, MA	 11:56 Big Red lulls us with some beautiful soloing, before training the machine gun at the audience and firing at will.
1990-11-04 Hood Fort Collins, CO	 10:27 This is a terrific compact "Hood" with crisp, sharp playing, good interplay, and strong Trey. Great sbd recording too.
1991-10-06 Hood St. Paul, MN	 12:26 Nice bubbly flow to the beginning of the jam. Trey adds some great soloing, then the jam builds up to a solid peak.
1991-11-30 Hood Port Chester, NY	 13:28 Great and playful intro. The jam is excellent and rocking, and Machine Gun Trey's playing is simply incredible.
1992-04-18 Hood Palo Alto, CA	 13:41 The famed "Linus and Lucy" version pays homage to the "Theme from Peanuts" during the jam.
1992-05-17 Hood Schenectady, NY	 13:03 The jam has an unusual dark, minor mode section from 7:15 - 8:45, making it the first truly exploratory "Hood." From here, the jam builds to a strong, shred-filled peak.
1992-07-15 Hood Charlottesville, VA	 12:12 The jam begins in an exhilarating and surprisingly gentle and graceful manner for '92, but consistent with the year, Trey kicks into high gear and rips the ending.
1993-02-12 Hood Poughkeepsie, NY	 12:29 The jam starts with a really nice, swinging vibe. As it builds, Trey has some great soloing, topping it off with strong trilling.
1993-02-20 Hood Atlanta, GA	 13:14 -> in from "HYHU." A cool and very improvisational jam, coming at the end of a historic show. Shredding, intense peak.
1993-03-21 Hood Ventura, CA	 13:15 Beautiful, delicate playing at first. Then at 7:55, there's an incredible section where the power builds in a cool and very unusual way for "Hood." From here, there's a brief settle before launching into a blistering ending.
1993-08-15 Hood Louisville, KY	 13:29 The jam begins in a very delicate manner, then grows in power with sprinkles of improvisation. There's another great quieter section, and then at 10:40, it's all guns blazing for a full throttle finish.
1993-08-26 Hood Portland, OR	 13:03 Enchanting and nimble early section is gradually overtaken by power, ending in a fierce and extremely tight peak.
1993-12-31 Hood Worcester, MA	 13:20 The jam starts with an "Auld Lang Syne" tease and delicate soloing, which builds into a frenzied guitar-led jam.
1994-04-08 Hood State College, PA	 12:27 Begins with a nice bouncy groove, things settle into quiet, subtle playing, then Trey & Co. build to a textbook finale.
1994-04-10 Hood Buffalo, NY	 12:06 A "Classic '94" jam begins with a great early section that has a good Fish-driven pulse, then Trey starts to add power with strummed chords. The intense peaking section concludes with really incredible trilling by Trey.
1994-04-30 Hood Orlando, FL	 12:00 Jam opens with a great "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" tease followed by light, fluttery playing before a knockout punch ending.
1994-05-27 Hood San Francisco, CA	 12:51 Mike gets into this really great groove starting at about 8:00 that everyone else plays off. Even as Fish, Trey and Page bring the heat, Mike keeps the licks of this groove rolling. And the ending section is just smoking hot.
1994-07-01 Hood Philadelphia, PA	 13:06 Cool, spacey beginning to the jam, great riffs from Trey, strong Fish, and a powerful finish with solid trilling = Great "Hood."
1994-10-20 Hood St. Petersburg, FL	 19:48 The first seriously "Type II" "Hood" includes some very experimental jamming. Parts of this exploration are mildly dissonant and very un-"Hood"-like, while other sections are quite spectacular. The "Type I" ending is first rate.
1994-10-23 Hood Gainesville, FL	 14:48 This "Hood" from A Live One seems to peak, then breaks at 11:25 into a section combining '94 space, moderate dissonance, and loads of tension. When this oblique resolves back to normal "Hood" at 13:30, it's pure '94 bliss.
1994-10-29 Hood Spartanburg, SC	 14:04 One quality of many great '94 "Hoods" is their balance of grace and power. As the encore from a fantastic show, this "Hood" begins with some quiet and delicate playing, which pairs nicely with the raw energy and intensity of the finish.
1994-11-03 Hood Amherst, MA	 14:49 The jam includes an unusual and very un-"Hood"-like section from 9:00 - 10:50. The build and peak sections that follow are strong '94 fare.
1994-11-22 Hood Columbia, MO	 12:46 Played by audience request, the jam features an improvisational early section, a fantastic build up, and wonderful peak.
1995-06-17 Hood Bristow, VA	 14:22 Great summertime version includes some filthy, nasty Mike in the "Mr. Minor" section, Trey soloing by himself for several minutes, and a very powerful but non-shredding peak.
1995-06-24 Hood Philadelphia, PA	 14:43 A really beautiful quiet section at first, then the power starts to build, but ever so gradually. False peak > Real peak ending.
1995-07-01 Hood Mansfield, MA	 14:19 Great interplay between Page and Trey leads builds steadily and bursts into a soaring Trey solo and powerful peak.
1995-09-27 Hood Sacramento, CA	 15:16 The jam veers into different territory at 8:45 as the customary "Hood" harmonics are upended by a shift to minor mode. Returns to normal "Hood" after 10:30, building to a nice peak which gradually fades with no closing refrain.
1995-10-07 Hood Spokane, WA	 16:03 A heartfelt and moving version with beautiful soloing by Trey, who briefly plays without amplification. Then the jam builds to a powerful '95 peak, but is unfinished with a crazy crescendo of sound instead of the closing refrain.
1995-11-10 Hood Atlanta, GA	 17:14 Outstanding version with a great intro. The jam begins with Trey soloing beautifully, and then he is joined quietly by Page and the others. The gradual but deliberate build up and glorious peak evince top level musicianship.
1995-12-05 Hood Amherst, MA	 17:12 Multiple rolling peaks that get higher and higher, and the final few, which incorporate an "Entertainer" tease are just sweet.
1995-12-11 Hood Portland, ME	 14:57 A good mix of quieter playing leads to anticipation as the build develops, then the peak delivers a celebratory release.
1995-12-17 Hood Lake Placid, NY	 17:06 Another strong December '95 version. Fish is the star as he expertly intensifies the percussion as the jam progresses.
1996-04-26 Hood New Orleans, LA	 12:34 Good accented notes and riffs from Trey, but a well orchestrated build up is the strong point. Great Fish in the peak, too.
1996-08-16 Hood Plattsburgh, NY	 13:39 Enchanting solo from Trey leads the band in a patient, beautiful build-up to a mighty peak that segues (literally) into fireworks.
1996-11-02 Hood West Palm Beach, FL	 14:20 Karl Perazzo on percussion. Wonderfully celebratory "Hood" in which Trey hits on a cool riff at 9:45 and Page is rock solid.
1996-11-16 Hood Omaha, NE	 15:55 Trey sustains a note for nearly 3 minutes letting Page and Fish shine. Altered lyrics referencing Leigh Fordham.
1996-11-23 Hood Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada 15:07 A really excellent version that captures the sound of the band in Fall '96, including strong Page (who seems louder in the sound mix throughout much of '96), dynamic Fish, who increases the jam's intensity, and rocking Trey.
1996-12-06 Hood Las Vegas, NV	 15:40 Top notch "Hood" follows a stellar "Simple" as the "meat" of a fantastic "Mike's Groove." The jamming highlights include cool percussion in the intro, super Page, lots of syncopation, great power rocking, and a terrific peak.
1997-02-18 Hood Paris, France 13:56 This is really an exceptionally strong "Hood" with great Page/Trey interplay, great melodies from Trey, super peak, etc. etc.
1997-08-10 Hood Noblesville, IN	 14:35 Reaches a near-transcendent peak, and closes the first set in a brilliant fashion. Practically "HOSE." IT.
1997-08-17 Hood Limestone, ME	 15:30 Inspired by the first ever "Hood" glowstick war, Trey leads this fan favorite melodic jam to a thrilling peak.
1997-11-16 Hood Denver, CO	 17:55 A remarkable version in which the band repeatedly tests the "Type I" boundary after 12:30, with Page in particular altering the harmonic underpinning several times. Closes with a truly magnificent peak and > to "Izabella."
1997-11-22 Hood Hampton, VA	 18:00 This patient "Hood" has an extended and very gradual build. The peaking section in the final few minutes is quite glorious.
1997-12-13 Hood Albany, NY	 17:44 The jam drifts away from the typical "Hood" quiet section into an ambient sort of section at 8:45. At 12:15, an excellent, rocking, and non-"Hood" rhythm kicks in and continues until 13:40, when a huge traditional peak erupts.
1998-07-15 Hood Portland, OR	 13:23 Delicate, directed, and fantastic playing by Trey leads to a soaring peak. Mike and Page are great, too.
1998-08-08 Hood Columbia, MD	 12:36 Very strong Page/Trey interplay, some good variation by Trey, and uniquely '98 sound combine for a quality '98 "Hood."
1998-10-15 Hood San Francisco, CA	 16:53 The jam has a very gentle, ambient quality, and the build and peak sections veer away from the norm, at moments almost sounding like something other than "Hood."
2000-06-16 Hood Suminoe-ku, Osaka, Japan 17:42 Extended intro with awesome jazzy Mike and possibly a "Dog Log" tease. You might expect a really gentle, spacey jam given the year, but thanks to Fish, it has a really great pulse while also being delicate at first, swelling to nice peak.
2000-06-22 Hood Antioch, TN	 2:32 Robbie McCoury on banjo, Ronnie McCoury on mandolin, and Sam Bush on fiddle. "Hood" intro -> "Dog Faced Boy" > "Hood." Unfortunately the AUD recording does not do justice to this cool instrumental arrangement. KS - Live Bait Vol. ?
2000-06-22 Hood Antioch, TN	 13:57 > in from "Dog Faced Boy." This great "Hood" now launches, but the AUD recording does not do justice to the great and different instrumentation.
2003-02-15 Hood Las Vegas, NV	 18:46 The jam seems to peak at about 13:00, then breaks into several minutes of angry and dissonant rocking before returning home.
2003-02-28 Hood Uniondale, NY	 14:30 Great version that just keeps building and building, up and up. A BIG exclamation point to end Set II of a historic show.
2003-07-08 Hood Chula Vista, CA	 18:11 "Type II" version leaves "Hood" at 9:25, breaks into a low-key groove that gets rocking, then dissonant, and heads home.
2003-07-25 Hood Charlotte, NC	 29:34 Spectacular, very "Type II" "Hood." Between this one and 7/31/03, the jam here gets a further removed from the norm, working through several exploratory sections before returning to close. > to an excellent "David Bowie."
2003-12-28 Hood Miami, FL	 13:36 Jam has a nice rocking section beginning about 7:50, returns to "Hood" and peaks with great struming by Trey.
2004-04-16 Hood Las Vegas, NV	 19:27 This "Hood" shifts to a rocking "Type II" groove at 8:45, briefly returns to "Hood," then departs into a dark, rhythmic minor mode section before finally coming home to close around 17:25.
2009-11-27 Hood Albany, NY	 12:49 Sweet Mike action in the intro, then the jam has an excellent and measured build up in intensity, it peaks, and > to "Suzy."
2010-12-28 Hood Worcester, MA	 16:39 Excellent 3.0 version with Trey picking staccato notes, Page matching him on clavinet, and Mike and Fish kicking in on this super and very unique rhythmic groove, before returning home for a more traditional "Hood" ending.
2011-06-08 Hood Darien Center, NY	 11:13 A very solid jam, building from start to end, and thus in good company with 5/6/90, 11/30/95, 2/18/97, 8/8/98, and 11/27/09.
2012-07-08 Hood Saratoga Springs, NY	 11:22 A very well played version overall, but the ending section in particular is extremely powerful.
2013-07-13 Hood Columbia, MD	 12:30 This "Hood" is a very good one, with a strong building jam, great peak and good interplay by the band.
2013-08-05 Hood Hollywood, CA	 22:32 Ground-breaking version that ushers in a new era of exploratory "Hoods." After some typical play, the jam turns rocking and percussive, including some "Woo" jamming. Things settle and the play becomes introspective and probing. Turning upbeat but with tension, the jam takes a final deep breath and returns to "Hood."
2013-10-23 Hood Glens Falls, NY	 13:21 Early in the jam, the band pays homage to the great Worcester '10 version. After some quieter musing, the jam picks up a really great head of steam and peaks in an exultant and powerful manner.
2014-07-01 Hood Mansfield, MA	 18:34 A thunderous, powerful, exploratory and very improvisational jam breaks almost from the get go. After landing in uncharacteristically darker terrain, the jam finds brighter ground, ventures further astray, and finally winds its way back to the land of "Hood."
2014-07-08 Hood Philadelphia, PA	 13:08 This "Hood" has a really great early section, especially between 5:25 - 9:25, where Mike, Page and Trey have this wonderful 3-way musical conversation, while Fish scales the percussion down to a very subtle but key rhythmic foundation.
2014-07-19 Hood Chicago, IL	 16:28 "Harry" once again proves to be the improbable choice for exploratory jamming. This time, the band begins the jam in minor mode, works up to a rocking fury, and finally settles back for a traditional "Hood" closing.
2014-07-26 Hood Columbia, MD	 13:20 While not as exploratory as some from Summer '14, this "Hood" is by no means a typical. The jam includes great Trey licks, rocking chording, strong Mike and Page, and a solid peak.
2014-08-03 Hood Alpharetta, GA	 14:18 The band has fun, as Trey plays duets with Mike, Fish, and Page. Then Mike plays the fight bell while Trey plays rhythm on the mike. Once fully back in "Hood," the jam breaks into minor mode, recalling the strong exploratory versions from earlier in the summer.
2014-10-24 Hood Inglewood, CA	 14:14 Amidst of sea of exploratory '14 versions, this fine one is a welcome reminder that the plain old "Hood" jam, when well executed as it is here, is pretty damn good stuff. Fish and Page are key in bringing up the energy and adding great color to the jam.
2014-10-28 Hood San Francisco, CA	 17:26 Strong jam starts in "Hood" mode, shifts to rocking minor mode at 7:25, settles briefly at 9:25 before becoming percussive and groovy, and jumps back to "Hood" proper at 11:52 with great "Type I" interplay, ending with an extended spacey phase-out.
2016-01-16 Hood Riviera Maya, Quintana Roo, Mexico 14:18 The early part of the jam includes great interplay and soloing by Trey. The gradual, but deliberate and well executed peak reminds us that a strong but plain ol' "Harry" is pretty spectacular in his own right.
2016-06-29 Hood Philadelphia, PA	 14:21 After a couple of years of venturing abroad, "Harry Hood" proves that a more traditional, but extended trip is equally compelling. This fine encore version also includes a very powerful ending section.
2016-07-03 Hood Saratoga Springs, NY	 11:00 Ever versatile, in the past few years, "Harry Hood" has spanned the range from a centerpiece improv-heavy jam to a lilting, polished encore. Here, after really cool, rarefied, and old-school stylings, Trey works this powerful classic to an archetypal peak.
2016-07-23 Hood Chula Vista, CA	 12:46 Trey modifies his tone early on to great effect, and solos quite strikingly. As the power grows, Fish, Page and Mike serve to colorfully and dramatically paint a wonderful, Trey-penned sketch. The powerful peak leaves everyone feeling good, and underscores why we all love this band so much.
2016-10-19 Hood Nashville, TN	 16:23 On the heels of a strong "Plasma," yet another wandering "Hood" serves to anchor a strong show. While the exploratory sections (5:00 - 12:30) offer some excellent playing, the return home leaves room for improvement.
