Friday 18 July 2014
Families looking for fun things to do in the national park this summer should try some of the exciting events the Peak District learning and discovery team has planned for them.
Inspired by the Tour de France's visit to the national park, the team is offering cycle activity trails from cycle hire centres at Ashbourne and Parsley Hay.
Families can take to the traffic-free trail from Ashbourne to pedal from Town to Tissington on Thursday July 31 or Saturday August 23, or explore the Tour de Peak from Parsley Hay on Sunday August 17. For anyone with energy spare after the rides there will be craft and wildlife activities back at base.
Family and community leader Paul Maddox said: "These cycling events are brilliant for everyone in the family to enjoy the Peak District's wonderful countryside and particularly for encouraging youngsters to take an interest in wildlife and the environment."
For families visiting two of the national park's beautiful reservoirs, the learning and discovery team are running Water from Wild Places days at Tittesworth Water, near Leek, (Saturday July 26, Tuesday 5 August, Saturday 30 August) and at Ladybower Reservoir, near Bamford (Thursday August 14, Tuesday August 19, Thursday August 28).
Paul Maddox added: "Families can join us for some watery fun in the outdoors to discover the wild places our clean water comes from and learn more about what makes these special through hands-on activities and games for all the family."
Other national park events over the summer include:
- A Miller's Dale Mini Safari on Saturday August 2.

New rail bridge over Mobile River
CSX Transportation Inc. said it has awarded $60 million contract to Scott Bridge Co. of Opelika, Ala., for the alteration of the 14-Mile Bridge over the Mobile River.
The bridge, which is named for its location on the river, will be converted from a swing span to a vertical lift bridge and will double capacity on the river, CSX said.
The existing bridge was built in 1925 and provides a 146-foot channel horizontal clearance for vessels. The alteration will improve channel horizontal clearance to 300 feet. The lift span will rise 60 feet, providing plenty of vertical clearance for barges and vessels that routinely use the waterway, the company said.
The total project cost is estimated at $72 million, which includes the construction contract to the Scott Bridge Co. The federal government is providing 94 percent of the funding and CSX 6 percent.

(ConservativeJournal.org) – Iran will lead the U.N. Conference on Disarmament for two sessions between March 18th through the 29th and May 13th through the 24th. Iran is notorious for supporting local militias and terror groups which attack the U.S. and its proxies in the region.
Conference leadership is rotated between the 65 member nations each year, and the assigned nation leads the affair for four weeks. They go in alphabetical order. Iran will serve as president for the conference alongside other nations that begin with I including Indonesia, India, Israel, Iraq, and Ireland.
The conference is responsible for the ongoing process of nuclear disarmament and the regulation of other weapons.
Iran has been attempting to achieve nuclear weapons technology for decades alongside its nuclear power program. Iran has become emboldened under President Biden, engaging in rampant militarism, arming of terror cells, and recently launching airstrikes against neighboring states. Those strikes were reportedly retaliation for terror attacks that occurred inside Iran, a frequent justification used by the U.S.
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) within the U.N. warned last year that Tehran has likely accumulated enough enriched uranium to produce multiple nuclear weapons. IAEA inspectors have been denied access to inspect Tehran’s nuclear materials for several months.
Senior fellow Behnam Ben Talebu with the Foundation for Defense of Democracies told Fox News that Iran was capitalizing on chaos in the region to advance its nuclear weapons capability.
The ongoing war in Gaza launched by Israel in retaliation for a Hamas-led surprise attack on communities and a music festival overnight and into the morning of October 7th kicked off the latest round of warfare in the region. Tens of thousands of Palestinians have been killed in the fighting while over a thousand Israelis were killed as well.
In the aftermath, Iran has attacked Iraq, Syria, and Pakistan. The U.S., Israel, and the U.K. have launched strikes inside of Yemen, Lebanon, Afghanistan, Syria, Somalia, Libya, and Pakistan since the war began. Observers worry that the conflict could continue to spiral out of control if the fighting doesn’t slow down soon.

Chronic stress and inadequate sleep may increase levels of stress hormones such as cortisol in your body. This can cause increased hunger and may result in weight gain. If you’re looking to lose weight, you should review possible ways to decrease or better handle excessive stress in your life. Although this often demands substantial changes, it may immediately affect your stress hormone levels, and perhaps your weight.

People use a ketogenic diet most often to lose weight, but it can help manage certain medical conditions, like epilepsy, too. It also may help people with heart disease, certain brain diseases, and even acne, but there needs to be more research in those areas. Talk with your doctor first to find out if it’s safe for you to try a ketogenic diet, especially if you have type 1 diabetes.
In nutrition, diet is the sum of food consumed by a person or other organism. The word diet often implies the use of specific intake of nutrition for health or weight-management reasons (with the two often being related). Although humans are omnivores, each culture and each person holds some food preferences or some food taboos. This may be due to personal tastes or ethical reasons. Individual dietary choices may be more or less healthy.
Based on this, researchers from the University of Alabama conducted a study with a small group of obese men with prediabetes. They compared a form of intermittent fasting called “early time-restricted feeding,” where all meals were fit into an early eight-hour period of the day (7 am to 3 pm), or spread out over 12 hours (between 7 am and 7 pm). Both groups maintained their weight (did not gain or lose) but after five weeks, the eight-hours group had dramatically lower insulin levels and significantly improved insulin sensitivity, as well as significantly lower blood pressure. The best part? The eight-hours group also had significantly decreased appetite. They weren’t starving.
Another program called the 5:2 Fast Diet involves eating 5 days a week and fasting for the other 2 days, when women can get no more than 500 calories and men no more than 600. That’s a quarter of the amount you likely eat on the days when you don’t fast. Whether you eat those calories in one sitting or spread them across micro-meals throughout the day is up to you.
The scale is not necessarily your friend. You may want to lose fat – but the scale measures muscles, bone and internal organs as well. Gaining muscle is a good thing. Thus weight or BMI are imperfect ways to measure your progress. This is especially true if you’re just coming off a long period of semi-starvation (calorie counting), as your body may want to restore lost muscles etc. Starting weight training and gaining muscle can also hide your fat loss.
So here’s the deal. There is some good scientific evidence suggesting that circadian rhythm fasting, when combined with a healthy diet and lifestyle, can be a particularly effective approach to weight loss, especially for people at risk for diabetes. (However, people with advanced diabetes or who are on medications for diabetes, people with a history of eating disorders like anorexia and bulimia, and pregnant or breastfeeding women should not attempt intermittent fasting unless under the close supervision of a physician who can monitor them.)
Lose It! This two-week phase is designed to jump-start your weight loss, so you may lose up to 6 to 10 pounds (2.7 to 4.5 kilograms) in a safe and healthy way. In this phase, you focus on lifestyle habits that are associated with weight. You learn how to add five healthy habits, break five unhealthy habits and adopt another five bonus healthy habits. This phase can help you see some quick results — a psychological boost — and start practicing important habits that you'll carry into the next phase of the diet.

US aviation safety officials ordered unusual inspections of a sample of four Boeing 787s amid questions about quality issues on the company’s carbon-fiber widebody jetliner.
The Federal Aviation Administration wrote to Boeing on January 11, telling the company it was going to conduct Certificates of Airworthiness inspections on four 787s, according to a letter reviewed by Bloomberg News.
The final review before an aircraft is handed over to buyers, known as an AC, has traditionally been delegated to Boeing’s own employees.
“The FAA is taking a number of corrective actions to address 787 production issues,” the agency said in an emailed statement. “One of the actions is retaining the authority to issue ACs for four specific aircraft. We can extend the AC retention to other aircraft if we see the need.”
The agency didn’t say in its statement whether the inspections had begun or what, if anything, had been found. FAA also didn’t specify what “production issues” it had discovered.
Boeing rose 3.28 per cent to close at $263.59 Wednesday in New York. The stock dropped 3.9 per cent on Tuesday, the sharpest decline on the Dow Jones Industrial Average, after Bloomberg News reported that the company was testing cockpit windows on some 787s.
“We are encouraged by the progress our team is making on returning to delivery activities for the 787 programme,” Boeing said on Wednesday in an emailed statement. “We have engaged the FAA throughout this effort and will implement their direction for airworthiness certification approval of the initial airplanes as they have done in the past.”
The Chicago-based manufacturer hasn’t delivered any 787 models since October as it searches for tiny defects near where the fuselage sections were joined. Boeing mechanics and engineers are working to restart 787 Dreamliner deliveries by the end of this month, in line with what executives promised during a January earnings call.
Boeing and FAA have had tense relations in the past two years in the wake of the twin fatal crashes of the 737 Max that led to its 20-month grounding.
Several additional flaws were discovered on the 737 Max during the grounding, and the agency has brought multiple civil enforcement actions against the company recently. Boeing agreed to pay $6.6 million on February 25 because it failed to adhere to a 2015 agreement to improve its safety practices, including on its production lines.
Under longstanding practice, the FAA typically deputises Boeing employees to inspect planes as they come off the assembly line to ensure they are properly made and can be legally sold. FAA inspectors occasionally conduct a handful of the reviews to ensure they remain properly trained.
The FAA has issued a small number of airworthiness certificates for 787 Dreamliners every year since 2017, according to a person briefed on the matter. The annual checks have varied between two and four aircraft annually, the person said.
The AC approvals were being retained by FAA in this case as a result of the unspecified issues discovered on the 787 production lines, FAA said.
The FAA also retained the sign-offs for all 737 Max jets coming of Boeing’s assembly line starting in November 2019 after debris such as rags and tools were discovered in the planes during inspections.
Boeing has been forced to store more than 80 Dreamliners as they work with suppliers to identify the source of manufacturing flaws in the plane.

Five Nations Leading the Renewable RevolutionJune 2, 2017
One by one, the nations of the world are switching from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources. For some, it’s a matter of environmental protection; for others, it’s about seeking energy independence. Either way, the change is happening, with around a quarter of the world’s energy coming from renewable sources.
The U.S. creates a huge amount of energy from renewable sources each year, but that energy only accounts for about 13 percent of total electricity generation and 10 percent of overall energy usage. This is substantially behind other countries, many of which are on track to be 100 percent renewable in the coming decades. Here’s how five countries are cutting their dependence on non-renewables:
Brazil — Hydroelectricity
Brazil has been relying on hydropower since the 1940s, mainly due to a lack of local fossil fuel resources. Much of the dam-building program was overseen by the military dictatorship from the 1960s onwards and construction work was done with little regard for its social or environmental impact. It’s also an imperfect system, and droughts in recent years have caused issues with availability.
Despite those issues, Brazil’s hydropower infrastructure makes it one of the leading producers of renewable energy in the world, generating 382 GWh in 2015. With the drought now easing, the plan is to build a new generation of dams to help further reduce the use of fossil fuels. However, these dams will be built with greater consideration for the local environment.
Scotland — Wind power
While Scotland’s economy may be dependent on oil, the local government has been pursuing an ambitious goal: 100 percent renewable electricity by 2020, and 50 percent renewable total energy usage, including vehicle fuel consumption, by 2030. Located on the edge of the North Atlantic, Scotland is a prime location for vast wind farms, with existing wind power facilities providing over 8,000 GW per year.
Often, the problem with wind farms is location: wind farms are expensive to maintain at sea, and nearby residents object to them on land. Donald Trump fought a high-profile legal battle to prevent turbines being erected near his Aberdeen golf course up until 2015, with British courts eventually siding with the Scottish government and rejecting his complaint.
Germany — Solar power
We tend to associate solar power with sunny regions, but that’s not always the case. Germany, not famous for its sunny climate, is the world leader in solar energy, with over 35 GW of solar capacity in the country. It’s part of an infrastructure that should allow Germany to go 100 percent renewable by 2050, but how did a cold Northern European country come to dominate solar energy?
The answer is state investment. Solar power has been an unreliable source of energy in the past, with low-performance photovoltaic cells making it impractical to harvest electricity. But since the 1990s, the German government has subsidized the industry and guaranteed against losses by investors. Now the rewards are being reaped, especially with new technology such as perovskite cells providing vastly superior outputs.
The Philippines — Geothermal
Geothermal energy is often overlooked in the race for sustainable energy solutions. The upfront cost for a geothermal energy plant can be enormous — up to $7 million for a station with a capacity of one megawatt. Drilling for geothermal energy can also be as bad for the environment as fracking, potentially releasing toxins and even causing earthquakes.
However, some countries have been able to make this renewable energy source work, thanks to their unique geology. The Philippines leads the way with geothermal sources, using naturally-occurring steam from underground sources to generate approximately 18 percent of the nation’s electricity.
Denmark — Energy efficiency strategies
Many strategies focus on how we generate energy, but it’s equally important to think about how we consume energy. Part of Denmark’s strategy has been to subsidize large-scale energy efficiency measures, which cover everything from home insulation to upgrades of industrial equipment.
The perceived wisdom is that a growing economy means increased energy usage, but Denmark shows that this is not the case. Industrial output has been growing over the past decade, yet energy usage in 2014 was the lowest it had been since 1972. This spectacular management of demand, combined with investment in renewables, has turned Denmark into a net exporter of electricity.
These five countries are leading the way towards a renewable future, and they are not alone. Even China, a country once notorious for its smoke-belching coal plants, is making the switch away from fossil fuels. The nation is now running on 23 percent renewable power and plans are afoot for a multi-billion dollar sustainable energy program before 2020.
With global energy usage set to increase by over 50 percent in the next twenty years across the globe, and the looming threat of peak oil disrupting traditional fuel sources, now is the time for every nation to start looking ahead to a sustainable future.

We live in a world that glorifies youth and conditions women to fear aging. A world where women feel pressured to defy age to be beautiful and to go to great lengths and expense to stop this race against time.
EMPOWERED AGING is a call to replace the negative narratives that dictate how women should look and feel as they age with a narrative of self-love, acceptance and authenticity.
EMPOWERED AGING is about embracing age as a source of strength, wisdom, experience and beauty. 'Anti-aging’ is just a marketing tool. We cannot prevent, reverse or stop aging but we can choose how we live this journey. A woman's worth is not defined by her appearance! While looks change, true beauty radiates from within.
EMPOWERED AGING is about cherishing, honouring and celebrating our aging journey.

Lions win early, often to topple Gaels
The Foran High wrestling team won the first five matches of the night en route to a convincing 51-22 dual-meet victory over Shelton High at Edna Fraser Gymnasium on Jan. 30.
Zach Hubler kicked off the match with a fall in 4:35 at 195, Ben Croll prevailed in a tough 5-1 minor decision at 220 and heavyweight Luke Edmondson pinned in 3:48, as the Lions roared to a 15-0 lead.
“It’s always nice to start out with our upper weights,” Foran coach Frank Peters said. “It gets the ball rolling. With the home crowd behind us tonight, I think it was good to get the momentum and take it into the middle matches.”
Gino Esposito then posted a 19-3 technical fall and senior Jacob Pouliot claimed a 13-8 victory. That pushed Foran’s margin to 23-0, before the Gaels picked up their first of four head-to-head victories.
“We didn’t wrestle with much emotion tonight,” Shelton coach Bill Maloney said. “Our room has been flat all week and it showed tonight in the wrestling. Foran is a good team… We knew coming in it would be a tough match. We didn’t bring it and they did.”
Hubler took a 14-2 lead after one frame in his bout against Malike Malcolm, before increasing it to 17-3 after two. Malcolm attempted to stay off of his back, but Hubler earned the fall early in the third period.
Croll faced off with Shelton junior Kyle Tobin, escaping with a standup to start the second stanza. That lead held until the third period, when Tobin started in the down position and Croll gained a three-point nearfall. A stalling point awarded to Croll sealed the 5-1 triumph.
Edmondson also grabbed an early edge in his match with Jose Nieves, going up 5-0 before getting the pin in 3:48.
Esposito, a freshman, controlled his bout with John Rosa from start to finish at 106, reeling off points with takedowns and nearfalls.
Pouliot held off sophomore Nico DiStassio at 113, opening up an 8-4 lead after one period through four takedowns. Pouliot pushed the advantage to 12-5 after two, before DiStassio escaped and notched a takedown to make it 12-8 in the third. Pouliot then escaped to put the final score at 13-8.
Shelton’s talented sophomore Kyle McGinnis halted the skid for the Gaels at 120, taking Elijah Moretti down off the whistle and pinning in 45 seconds.
Junior Scott Plucienik followed with a first-period fall over Michael Bakx in 1:25 to get Shelton within 23-12.
Jubilee Witte and Patrick Fitzgerald quickly got Foran untracked at 132 and 138, gaining pins over Alexander Ercolani and Ethan Lam, respectively, to establish a 35-12 Lions’ advantage.
Nick Pogacsas at 145 picked up a third pin for Shelton, taking a 10-0 lead over Ray DeWitt before recording the fall in 3:29.
At 152, Foran’s Rich Kratzer sailed to a 16-3 win over Dan Persson and Beau Garcia was awarded a forfeit victory at 160.
Liam Cummings then shut out Noah Hubler, 12-0, at 170 for the final Gael victory of the night.
Cristian Woodford finished off Foran’s triumph with a fall over Brett Scanlon in 2:33 at 182. The Lions improved to 16-5 overall, 2-1 in the SCC A Division. Shelton dropped to 16-4, 1-2 in the SCC A.
“We’ve had a couple of wakeups over the course of the season,” Peters said. “We had to step it up and step up the intensity… We’re a very competitive team in our league and state divisions.”
Take Down Cancer event
Prior to the match, the Lions presented a charity donation to the Get in Touch Foundation to help the fight against breast cancer. It was the culmination of Foran’s Take Down Cancer fund-raising event.
“We were fired up about this match,” Peters said. “We wanted to put out a good show in front of our home crowd tonight.”

Another gardening season has arrived, time to get coordinated. Here and there it is trying to begin gardening tasks and we search under any condition to return inside and set it aside for one more day. One of the main difficulties to your spirit is a muddled space. You keep your home boat shape, should not you be the garden tools coordinated moreover? There are many decisions of coordinator out there and a little examination for the ideal coordinator for your circumstance merits the problem. You would rather not be kicking over scoops, slamming your toe on a cultivator or stand there baffled swearing I realize it was here, I simply know it. Take care of any outstanding concerns and get the best coordinator for your gardening needs and stop the swearing for good inside the garden shed.
The garden coordinator that will turn out best for you ought to have an adequate number of spaces and openings for the whole garden apparatus assortment you own. Assuming you have another garden project coming this season remember that while concluding which buy you ought to make – as the garden tools coordinator you pick will be with you for quite a while to come, you need space for your developing device assortment as Garden tools. First concern after capacity to oblige your garden tools is strength. There are various decisions of coordinator accessible yet some look a piece unstable and would not face a lot of mileage particularly considering weighty grapes, cultivators and digging tools you will pull all through the garden tools coordinator. It is made of sturdy steel and was a preferable cost over a large number of its plastic rivals. Note gathering is required yet you have the tools as of now for this undertaking, they simply need serious getting sorted out right?
Its minimal unit at 20 9 or2 x 13.5 x 27 should not occupy a lot of room and fit in most garden sheds. The garden apparatus coordinator has no base to it so the shafts of your tools will be contacting the ground adding to strength factor. Additionally soil from your tools will tumble to the ground and you can once in a while move the garden device coordinator and tidy up the dirt. Yet, best practice is to painstakingly wash your tools in the yard first as this will have an impact in the support of your tools and the device coordinator. Seems like something odd to bring up yet it stuns me the number of individuals that do not perfect their tools prior to taking care of them. There are some sensible garden tools coordinators made of plastic, if it is not too much trouble, check the Amazon site client surveys to choose if this would be a possibility for you. There many sizes and shapes to look over however the mantra of ‘a spot for everything and all things where they ought to be’ unquestionably ought to apply to your tools.

The companion EIC module allows input of the 4 analog and OPR signals, plus up to 4 channels of digital data, all via a convenient interface box with Status Light, BNCs, and D-Sub connectors. For external data (e.g. temperature, pressure, etc.), a four channel analog-to-digital and digital-to-digital input module in the EB board is utilized. These channels can be used to acquire peripheral data from any transducer with output in the range -5 to +10V. The FlowSizer™ software allows real-time display of these auxiliary inputs, calibration using a 4th order polynomial, and analysis of velocity-scalar quantities. The EB/EIC system does not simply tag each velocity point with an angular position for post-analysis. Instead the user defines an unlimited number of angular windows (perhaps each blade passage). The software then allows the real-time display of velocity and diameter statistics for individual windows, user-selectable angular intervals, or the whole cycle. A host of rotating machinery specific post processing options is also provided.

A city worker has died of coronavirus, Mayor Lori Lightfoot announced Wednesday.
The mayor did not provide personal details about the employee, including the person’s department, but said the longtime worker was “beloved by family and co-workers.”
“It’s with a heavy heart that I’m here to announce that Chicago has lost one of our own city employees to COVID-19,” Lightfoot said. “While I can’t provide and will not (provide) any personal details, I can say that the employee was long-standing, beloved by family and co-workers.”
An emotional Lightfoot praised city employees for their service, noting the sacrifices made by everyone from public health officials to CTA workers, building engineers and custodians.
As of Wednesday, Illinois had recorded 6,980 known COVID-19 infections and 141 deaths statewide since the start of the outbreak. Of those cases, there have been more than 2,600 confirmed infections in Chicago, officials said.
“The numbers we report every day are not mere statistics. They are people whose lives are forever changed,” Lightfoot said.
Earlier in the day, during an appearance on NBC’s “Today” show, Lightfoot said the number of coronavirus cases in Chicago are “starting to trend in the right direction,” though much more work needs to be done to curb the crisis.
“What we’re also seeing is a lengthening of time between the doubling of cases. It’s too soon to make any real predictions but it seems like we’re starting to trend in the right direction. But the truth is, on our modeling, we don’t believe we’re going to reach the peak of this virus until mid- to late April,” Lightfoot said, echoing a point she previously made in a Tribune interview. “So there’s a lot more work that needs to be done.”
Officials have taken drastic actions in an attempt to enforce social distancing rules aimed at preventing the virus’s spread. Gov. J.B. Pritzker issued a statewide stay-at-home order last month requiring people to remain in their homes except for certain exceptions such as going to work or the grocery store. He has extended the order through April 30.
Schools around the state remain closed, and bars and restaurants are off-limits to dine-in customers. Lightfoot has shut down the lakefront and major parks.
“The COVID crisis has no doubt put all of us through a lot. But it’s also shown us, if anything, the strength and vitality and resiliency of who we are as a people,” Lightfoot said. “The true public spirit of our city employees, who embody the definition of public service, and have literally been keeping our city running during this crisis at great sacrifice to themselves. For that, we thank you."
Lightfoot said she personally reached out to offer her condolences to the employee’s family.
“This sobering moment should remind us that the numbers that we report every day are not mere statistics. They are people whose lives have been forever changed and a network of people connected by crisis who need us to do everything that we can every day to save lives.”
Citing the city employee’s death, Lightfoot said the coronavirus crisis will continue and warned the public to continue taking the crisis seriously. The public must stay inside even as the weather warms up in coming weeks, Lightfoot said.
“Each of our individual actions has a direct impact on everyone else and is truly a matter of life and death,” she added.

Lightfoot also urged the city’s landlords to forgo a month’s rent if they can to help cash-strapped tenants.
“My hope is that we will give each other grace,” Lightfoot said. “I understand that landlords have mortgages and they have other bills to pay but in this time where a lot of renters are really being pressed, I would absolutely urge if at all possible to forgo this month’s payment just to give people a little bit of peace of mind and a cushion in really, really tight financial circumstances.”
Lightfoot also said the Chicago Housing Authority will defer rent through the end of the month for thousands of tenants while the governor’s stay-at-home order remains in effect.
A CHA spokeswoman later said rent payments can be delayed but that residents will be responsible for paying rent for April and any subsequent month that a stay-at-home order is in effect. Rent will be due after the order is lifted, for now May 1, a spokeswoman said.

RadioShack-Nissan will send a “very, very strong” team to the Tour de France this year, which will be needed to help Andy Schleck overcome his time trial weakness, according to team manager Johan Bruyneel. The Belgian is also looking for his team to land on the top step of the podium at the Amgen Tour of California.
On his personal website, Bruyneel said, “certainly time trialing will be a factor in this year's race. And we need to be honest with ourselves. As talented a rider as Andy is, time trialing is not his strength. The expectation is not to beat Cadel (Evans, ed.) or any of the time-trialists in the TT. I think that would be unrealistic.
“So we'll need to maximize his strengths and work on limiting his losses. To do this, we'll need to implement an aggressive strategy. I think another thing that plays to our benefit is that we'll have an extremely strong support team. I don't know exactly who will make up the entire Tour team yet, but there's no doubt that it will be very, very strong.”
Schleck wore the yellow jersey on the day before the final time trial in the Tour 2011, and went into that stage with a 57 second lead over Evans. But after the time trial, Schleck was 1:34 down on the Australian.
While Bruyneel wouldn't say who will be on the Tour team, he did say that Jens Voigt “would certainly be considered.” The German is “reliable, sacrifices himself for the team, knows what the Tour is all about, etc. And all this at the age of 40. Impressive to say the least.”
Chris Horner will lead the team in the Tour of California, and “if he shows up at the race in the condition he had last year, I'll feel very good about our chances.” Horner, who is also 40, will be supported by George Bennett, Matthew Busche, Markel Irizar, Ben King, Tiago Machado, Gregory Rast and Jens Voigt.
“One trend that has been evident since the race started in 06 is that each year is more challenging. Not only from a route standpoint, but also from the competitive group of riders racing,” Bruyneel said.
“I'm expecting it to be the toughest edition yet and hopefully we'll be on that top step in LA.”

One of the villain roles has officially been cast for Marvel’s upcoming Captain America: Civil War, and it’s not you who might expect. No, not the Winter Soldier again. And not Tony Stark either, despite what the Civil War subtitle might suggest. It’s a different character entirely, and the studio has tapped Rush and Inglourious Basterds star Daniel Bruhl to bring a Captain America 3 villain to life in the highly anticipated Marvel follow-up. Additionally, another report indicates that Bruhl will actually be playing the main villain in Doctor Strange, and a few other familiar Marvel Cinematic Universe faces are expected to return for Captain America 3. More after the jump.
Marvel officially announced Bruhl’s casting today before any of the trades could get a jump on it. Here’s what Marvel Studios president and Civil War producer Kevin Feige had to say about the casting:
“With Daniel’s ability to deliver intense, nuanced performances, we knew we had found yet another great actor to share the screen with some of our biggest heroes.”
While Marvel obviously didn’t reveal the nature of Bruhl’s role, Variety chimed in to say that he will be playing one of the film’s villains and is also potentially the top villain in Marvel’s Doctor Strange, which arrives the following November in 2016 and would mark a reunion of sorts between Bruhl and his The Fifth Estate co-star Benedict Cumberbatch, who is in negotiations to lead Strange for Marvel. Which comics baddie could be a top villain for Doctor Strange and also an antagonist for Cap? I expect those more well-versed in the Marvel Comics lore than I will be able to speculate with a greater degree of expertise on that front (head to the comments, folks!).
Directors Joe and Anthony Russo—who helmed Captain America: The Winter Soldier—have previously said this third Captain America would continue to explore the Winter Soldier storyline, but the cast is already starting to get a bit crowded so I’ll be very curious to see how Winter Soldier’s arc is approached. Deadline adds that Sebastian Stan will be back, and Samuel L. Jackson and Scarlett Johansson are also expected to take part in the Civil War festivities.
When Marvel announced the subtitle of Civil War and that Robert Downey Jr. would be co-starring in the picture alongside Chris Evans’ titular hero, many assumed this meant the film would be exploring the antagonistic relationship between Tony Stark and Steve Rogers that comes to a head in the comics. I’ve no doubt that Marvel will indeed be pitting Iron Man and Cap against each other at some point, but thus far the studio has never really done a straight adaptation of a comics storyline, so I imagine they’re putting their own spin on Civil War as well.
Bruhl is a fantastic actor so he should make for a fine addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and he’s the second new actor to join the cast of Captain America 3 after Marvel also announced that Chadwick Boseman’s Black Panther would be making his first appearance in this film as well. Production is expected to get underway early next year in anticipation of the film’s May 6, 2016 release date.

This weeks topic is ‘Prologues and Epilogues. Yes or no?’
I have not included either a prologue or an epilogue in any of the books to date. As I only have two full length novels, that doesn’t necessarily mean I never will, but merely that this concept wasn’t useful to me for either of Through the Nethergate or A Ghost and His Gold.
Literary terms describes a prologue as “Some works of literature start with a prologue (pronounced PRO-log), a short introductory section that gives background information or sets the stage for the story to come. The prologue is usually pretty short, maybe a few pages . But it may be the most important section of the story, and if readers skip it they may be lost for the entire story.”
I had a look at a list of the top 12 novels with prologues that worked and I haven’t read any of them. The only prologue I can distinctly remember was the one in the musical production of War of the Worlds which goes like this:
“No one would have believed in the early years of the 21st century that our world was being watched by intelligences greater than our own. That as men busied themselves about their various concerns, they observed and studied, the way a man with a microscope might observe the creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. With infinite complacency, men went to and fro about the globe, confident of our empire over this world. Yet across the gulf of space, intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic regarded our planet with envious eyes, and slowly, and surely, drew their plans against us.”
I think this prologue definitely worked! Of course, I do admit to loving this book [not the film], so maybe that is why I love this prologue.
Literary terms describes and epilogue as “an optional final chapter of a story, such as in a play or book, and which may serve a variety of purposes—concluding or bringing closure to events, wrapping up loose ends, reporting the eventual fates of characters after the main story, commenting on the events that have unfolded, and or setting up a sequel. It can appear as a speech (especially in a play), a series of scenes, or an essay by the narrator.”
I had more luck thinking of a series which ended with an epilogue – Harry Potter. I remember it because I didn’t feel the epilogue added value to the series and I would have preferred to have drawn my own conclusions about the futures of the characters. In fact, I found the epilogue quite annoying.
In conclusion, maybe my thoughts are quite simple” “maybe a prologue, but never an epilogue.”

DO POLITICAL CONSULTANTS MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE?—A CONTROLLED EXPERIMENT. With all the uncertainty about measuring the effectiveness of political political campaigns, I was surprised to see that there has been a randomized controlled experiment. Molly Ball reports that: “In 2006, Rick Perryâ€™s Texas gubernatorial campaign gave researchers the chance to conduct a randomized, controlled experiment in real time. The campaign worked with political scientists to target certain parts of the state with ads while leaving other parts ad-free; the researchers then measured the difference in voter sentiment.”
They found that the commercials boosted Perryâ€™s standing by about five pointsâ€”and that the bump disappeared less than a week after the ads stopped airing.

Inn America, Boise, was an excellent choice for our first night in Boise. Unfortunately, we had booked another hotel for the remaining three nights. The hotel offered free WiFi that worked, a nice size fridge, microwave, continental breakfast and a clean room all at a decent price. It was hardly the nicest motel that I have ever stayed at, but it was head and shoulders above your typical 1 star or 2 star property. I would recommend this motel to anyone wanting to stay in a nice low cost motel.

The English established most of the old jute mills around Kolkata in the 1880’s. The jute industry was brought to the area as an economic stimulus measure to prevent further revolt against the British Empire. This is one of the oldest jute mills in the area. It is still operating as it did back in the 1800’s with original vintage machines.

Personality Variables and Eating Pathology.
About this resource
Personality variables have long been implicated in the onset and maintenance of eating disorders, as well as in symptom divergence between anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. Clinical observations are broadly supported by the data, with restricting anorexia nervosa associated with higher levels of constraint and Persistence, and binge-purge behaviors linked to the tendency to take impulsive action when emotionally distressed. Considerable heterogeneity is found within diagnostic categories, however, suggesting that different personality structures may predispose individuals to develop disordered eating through alternative pathways.

Virgin America is small, low-cost startup airline in the United States, operating mainly domestic routes. And yet in a way which has confounded its early critics, Virgin America reviews show it offers something genuinely unusual: the planes are new clean and modern: checkin generally works well, and on the whole the planes are on time. It is in the premium cabin that Virgin America excel: Virgin America First Class reviews are overwhelmingly positive, thanks to the lovely modern seats, excellent catering, and great inflight bar.
Los Angeles A Virgin America Airbus A320
Indeed, it is rare for Airreview to give such praise to an airline that is, in effect, just doing its job. However compared to the usual motley crew of no-hopers that attempt to operate airlines in the US which make a misery of the business of flying, with woeful quality of service and planes, it is startling to find something different, and Virgin America reviews are certainly that. After all, while the USA may have been among the first countries to start commercial aviation, it has alas been among the last to update its airlines. It is often said that the US can't do airlines – and it certainly can't do First Class – Virgin America prove the point that there is a definite demand for quality in the skies, and that passengers will pay. Read more about Virgin America First Class.
Down the back of the bus, Virgin America economy reviews are still positive – just slightly less gushing. After all, here it is nothing but a low-cost airline, where you pay for your food, bags, and IFE. However the fact that seatback TV is on offer (at a price), as is Wifi, the food is a cut above the rest (ish: don't get your hopes up) and the way the seats aren't the usual plain grey wipe-clean plastic of most airlines in America, sets it apart. Read more about Virgin America Economy Seats.
The airline has grown steadily since launch: it now flies to over 30 destinations from its hub in San Francisco, with over forty brand new Airbus planes. A Virgin America review now is quite different from when it launched. The airline has even started some international routes, although these haven't been a total success: loads are light to Mexico and Canada, where the brand is a virtual unknown. However the free inflight TV service is certainly lifting loads to US destinations Read more about Virgin America Seatback TV.
There are still some let-downs with Virgin America. The frequent-flyer scheme is so-so, with a rather poor earn rate, and woeful availability for redemption. Alliances with other airlines are also miserly. It also doesn't give away upgrades like sweets: unlike other US airlines, which could explain the better quality you get up the front. And it is the front of the plane where the lovely creamy leather seats, flip out TV, and food even on the shortest of flights (no starvation if the flight is under 3 hours – unlike US Airways) comes to the fore. Buying upgrades on Virgin America is well worth it: they are cheap, and good value. Read more about Virgin America Upgrades.
First Class Cabin on Virgin America: good, init?
Alas First Class Virgin America reviews are let down, because there are no lounges as such: if you flight your way in you can get into the amazing Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse in three locations, but other than that you are down to buying day passes for other airline's lounges. Read more about Virgin America Lounges.
On the whole, this new brazen upstart, that had to fight tooth and nail to launch, is giving the old legacy carriers a run for their money: it is no wonder that the grandfather airlines fought against giving it a licence for so long. While it is British designed, with a mission statement of offering low-fare, high-quality service for long-haul point-to-point service between major cities on the East and West Coasts, the airline has to be US owned to get around the restrictive protectionism in US aviation. Only 25% is owned by Virgin Atlantic.
On the whole, Virgin America is a revelation: an airline that genuinely tries to make an effort. The young British upstart is showing the Americans just what is wrong with their airlines, and how.

AN INTERVIEW WITH 18/19 SEASON ARTIST NICOLA GUNN May 8, 2019
by Kiera O'Brien
An Interview with Nicola Gunn, by 18/19 Curatorial Intern Ellen McGivern
Currently based in Bergen, Norway, Australian artist Nicola Gunn fashions hilarious and critical performances situated between reality and the fantastical abilities of our minds dealing with the mundane. Gunn performed at On the Boards, February 14-16 with Piece for Person and the Ghetto Blaster and In Spite of Myself the following weekend of February 21st-24th. Utilizing individual experiences, Gunn entices audiences with personal narratives, the concept of relevance, and questions of if all of it even really matters after all. With intense physical movements, Gunn pushes the conceptual limits of a one ‘man’ show with laughter and interpersonal inquiry. This interview has been edited for length and brevity.
What is your before performance ritual? How do you prepare for production?
With Ghetto Blaster I get to the theatre 4 hours before the performance time and begin warming up — a combination of circuit training and strength exercises and yoga. With all my other works, it’s similar but instead of 3 hours warm-up, it’s usually 1.5. I also warm-up my voice while I’m moving. I prefer that no one disturbs me during this time, so I am more or less able to focus on what I’m doing and what I’m about to do. I generally try and do very little during the day as I’m not actually very good at multi-tasking and really need to rest and take it easy… of course this is not always possible. Performing really disrupts my sleep patterns. I get very little sleep when I’m performing, so if I can, I try and take a short nap during the day.
Throughout your performances, your gestures are intense and full of energy, how do you stay consistent and present when your work is so physically demanding?
Presence is a craft like any other. Sometimes I am 100% present and sometimes my concentration slides a bit, and in those moments my body is so rehearsed it just performs the action unconsciously. It isn’t ideal, but the moments my focus breaks aren’t that often, and yeah, fortunately my body tends to know what it’s doing before I do and now the verbal language is so closely connected to the choreography for me, I can cover up these lapses in ‘presence’. Piece for Person and Ghetto Blaster takes a huge amount of mental and physical energy which is why I have such a long preparation time and which is why it’s getting harder and harder to perform — I almost feel unable to move on from it and focus my energy into other projects, other ideas.
What exact gestures do you use when discussing ethical dilemmas or questions in your work. How did you come to these conclusions and choose to use them in your work?
There’s a lot of ‘weighing up,’ a lot of balancing, a lot of throwing it away. I did really want all the movement to be frivolous, I didn’t want us to think too much about why this movement as opposed to that movement. It is all supposed to be more or less unnecessary.
How has performing internationally affected your relationship to your body of work?
It hasn’t affected my body of work per se, but it has given me a lot more insight into how presenting houses operate, their relationship to programming, my relationship to being programmed and how they engage with the artist and the artist’s work, or in some cases, how they do not engage with the artist and the artist’s work.
Your work calls into question the human experience and our relationship to empathy. Given our current societal standing, what is our biggest threat to empathy?
Fuck I don’t know… apathy? Selfishness? Capitalism? Individualism? Probably capitalism. But even saying that is so generic and such a tired conversation. But it’s a huge fucking problem and exists and has permeated every aspect of our society and how we think we ought to be living.
I thoroughly enjoyed your poking fun of the seriousness of the art world and the artist archetype. How have you balanced your own success and the laughable nature of the industry?
I don’t consider myself to be successful. But it is dangerous to bite the hand that feeds you. I don’t take myself too seriously and I am especially aware of my own earnestness and sincerity.
I’ve read you would rather not gender your performance as a ‘one-woman show’ though you are also raising questions and comments on female experiences. Can you elaborate on how defining your work through gender has impacted the way different audiences interpret the work?
This is a really interesting question. I have no problem being identified as a woman and I definitely talk about my experience in my work, and my experience of the world is particular to being a woman. However, I really don’t like the work being defined as a piece of art made by a woman, a one-woman show for example. The work is a separate entity from my body, it’s its own thing, and I don’t see the work itself needs to be gendered, if that makes sense. I also resist this idea that because I’m a woman, that that somehow should define the work of art I’ve made, as if work made by women has certain identifiable qualities that sets it apart from work made by men. And of course, work made by a man rarely needs to be pointed out and drawn attention to, so why should that made by a woman. It’s like how people would identify someone as ‘Asian’ or ‘Hispanic’ to point at the difference, as if the norm is ‘white.’ It’s a way I can reject this idea the dominant norm (in art, in any profession) is to be a man.
About Nicola Gunn
Nicola Gunn is a Melbourne-based performer, writer, director and dramaturge. Since 2002, she has been making works that blend performance, art, and anthropology to explore the fragility of the human condition with subversive humor. Her artistic practice is committed to institutional critique, social engagement, and generating works that activate the public sphere by questioning old ways of being or proposing new ones. She uses performance to reflect critically on its place in theatres, to examine power relations in existing organizations, and to consider the relevance and social function of art itself. The starting process is often a written text or idea imagined responding to a self-generated impulse to tell a story or explore a form. She draws mainly from her experience to create autobiographical fiction. Nicola’s work has been presented widely in Australia and has toured to Canada, Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, and the United States.
About Ellen McGivern
Ellen McGivern is drawn to work focused on process, research, ritual, vulnerability, and accessibility. Growing up in Kansas, McGivern became fascinated with the Prairie Print Makers, a collective founded pre-World War II that examined her home state with an emphasis in working with community and self-promotion; similar values that are embedded in her curatorial practice. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Journalism from the University of Kansas and will graduate with an MFA in Arts Leadership from Seattle University this June. Beginning in marketing and communications at the fine craft gallery, 108|Contemporary, Ellen has progressed her career towards curation, residency management, art criticism and artist professional development through opportunities at the Hedreen Gallery, the contemporary performance space, On the Boards, and as a resident in The Black Embodiments Studio, an arts writing incubator and lecture series in collaboration with The Jacob Lawrence Gallery and the University of Washington.

PNC Pops: Sounds of Simon & Garfunkel
Theirs was the harmony of a generation. Michael Krajewski conducts this tribute, featuring Simon and Garfunkel's greatest hits: "The Sound of Silence," "Scarborough Fair," "Mrs. Robinson," "Bridge Over Troubled Water," "The Boxer," and many more. It's sure to leave you "Feelin' Groovy!"
James Damore a software engineer was fired from Google last week accused of perpetuating gender stereotypes in an essay he authored on company diversity. His memo received backing from members of Alt-Right groups who believe his First Amendment rights to free speech was violated and were planning protests outside Google offices in nine cities on Saturday including Pittsburgh, but were canceled. March organizers claimed they had received credible terrorist threats from known Alt-Left groups and were concerned for the safety of their march participants in wake of the Charlottesville violence.

I do not know if the change in ownership took place between the time the previous reviewer stayed there and when I stayed there, but there has been a change. My experience was pleasant, if not excellent. I, too, noticed some cleaning problems (cobwebs), and the heating/cooling system needs to be replaced!
My major concern was comfort. I felt crowded even though the room was large, and found that, though the bathrooms are larger than you will find in a more modern motel, there are no vanities! The sinks are pedestal sinks, and there is nowhere to put anything down. If you are staying for several days, this is a real aggravation.
The staff was pleasant and helpful to me.
Pluses are location on the same side of the highway, Interstate and railroad as the fast-food restaurants, free wireless network, etc. The condition of the parking lot has improved greatly over the last five years -- which was the last time I had stayed there.
You might try the "Crossroads" building located on the property. It is actually the old Crossroads Hotel, which was located on the east edge of town many years ago, has more comfortable rooms but is disconnected from the main building. I do not know if there are both smoking and nonsmoking rooms in that building.

The Russo Bros. have typically created and/or coordinated action-arranged live-action content like Extraction, 21 Bridges, and several Marvel Cinematic Universe titles. Superfudge will mark the primary animated film the sibling couple have developed and delivered together. Presently, they are wrapping up creation and directorial obligations on The Gray Man, starring Captain America: Civil War star Chris Evans. They are also creating the continuation of Extraction with individual Avengers alumni Chris Hemsworth.
Disney has been rapidly ramping up creation on various original movies and television shows for their Disney+ streaming platform. With Superfudge being based on just one of several titles in the same book series, the streamer may decide to adapt future movies or shows based on Blume’s popular series of books. Although it is still too soon to determine what the property’s future with Disney+ will be, it is an encouraging sign that such a high-profile team like the Russo Bros. are collaborating on the current venture.
Disney Branded Television’s President Ayo Davis announced the Disney+ movie project with Avengers: Endgame chiefs the Russo Bros. as makers during the Television Critics Association’s Winter Press Tour. It is being created by the Russo Brothers’ company, AGBO, and composed by Amos Vernon and Nunzio Randazzo. Vernon and Nunzio as of late composed the screenplay for Sony Pictures Animation’s Hotel Transylvania: Transformania.
One of Judy Blume’s top of the line youngsters’ books, Superfudge, is currently being developed by Disney’s streaming platform as an animated film created by Joe and Anthony Russo. The Superfudge kids’ novel was distributed in 1980 and is a continuation of Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing, making it the third passage in the Fudge series. The property was previously adapted as a TV series named Fudge and aired from 1995 to 1997.

Showing That We Care
I think sometimes we don’t think about all the benefits we get from friends and family. Sometimes we don’t show our appreciation and then suddenly they are gone. They either die suddenly or for some reason the drop out of our lives.
We need to learn to appreciate those we care for because we don’t know how long we will have them. People die suddenly and then it is too late to show them that we appreciate them.
People don’t want to hear all the wonderful things about them at their funeral. I am not saying it is wrong to say nice things about someone who has died. But the person who died would have liked to hear them before they died.
So what am I saying? Get out there and let the folks you know and love; that you appreciate them. Let them know you love them and let them know all the wonderful things about them that you have never said before.
I was at my step son’s bench in Bethalto on the anniversary of his death. Two of my granddaughters were with me. I told them I really love Josh and I miss him. They both said that they wished that they had been old enough to know him and tell him that they loved him. They can’t tell him how much they love him because he is gone but we keep his memory alive in their hearts. They had an excuse for not telling him how they felt as they were babies.
Let us not let those around us know how much we love them and appreciate them. The other day I dropped off them granddaughters at the Boys & Girls Club. I was walking out the door and they came running to me and I said, “What’s up?” They said, “Papa we just want you to know we love you.”
I already knew that but I loved hearing it again. I know you have loved ones that just want to hear you say the words that you sometimes fail to say when they need it most.
Prayers going up for you today!

In my mind, I launched off the top of the mountain, raced over every huge jump on the World Cup mountain bike track and landed at the bottom without breaking a sweat.
In reality, I prayed, closed my eyes, fluked the first jump and ended up face down in the dirt.
I may have brought bruises back instead of shortbread, but I still loved every minute of my outdoor adventure in Scotland.
We tried our hand at biking and hiking during a weekend stay at the Ballachulish Hotel, which sits within the truly breathtaking surroundings of the West Highlands on the shores of Loch Leven.
It’s only about 100 miles from Glasgow, but may as well be a different universe.
The drive will take you a little over two hours as you pass up the twisting length of Loch Lomond and onto the long open stretches of road that featured in the latest James Bond film, Skyfall.
The first thing that hits you when you walk through the front doors of the Scottish baronial mansion is the warm and friendly welcome from the staff.
Many of the well-appointed rooms have stunning views across the Loch and if hiking is not your thing, it’s just as appealing to sit in one of the lounges in front of a roaring log fire. The food is another reason to stay at the Ballachulish.
Restaurants appear to be few and far between up here and it seemed like even the locals popped in for some of the Ballachulish hospitality.
Its Bulas Bar and Bistro serves up Scottish specialities like haggis stuffed chicken alongside big hearty plates of cottage pie and fish and chips.
And you will need the energy because the activities on your doorstep include biking and hiking at the Nevis Range, which also offers high wire adventures in the tree tops and even skiing and snowboarding.
The Nevis Range, near to Fort William, has the UK’s only mountain gondola to winch its skiers up 650 metres and even the bikers can strap the bike to the back of the gondola for the more terrifying extreme tracks.
It takes about half an hour to get to the range from the Ballachulish, but there is something for every age, interest and ability.
We began our visit with a stroll through some of the 25 miles of forest paths. And we saw a lot more of these pathways when we took out our hired bikes behind a guide. After familiarising ourselves with the bikes on basic mini tracks and obstacles, we progressed through to the more challenging courses.
My insistence on trying the World Cup track ended when I ran out of talent, but everyone else will be fine if they know their limits and respect the expert advice from staff.
The big imposing Ballachulish was the perfect place to explore the great outdoors.
If you are staying at the hotel, you also get the chance to use the facilities at the Isle of Glencoe sister hotel down the road, which has its own watersports centre for sailing, a pool and a sauna. There is also free golf offered at the local nine-hole golf course.
There is no doubt that this is a long drive from the West Midlands, but there are also direct flights and trains to Glasgow from Birmingham and a chance to hire a car.
The Highlands are one of the most spectacular holiday spots the UK has to offer.
My only advice is to explore it a bit more and extend the stay to more than a few days combining the trip with a visit to somewhere nearby. It’s also probably best to avoid world class bike tracks if you are not a world class biker.
To book at the Ballachulish, visit www.ballachulishhotel.com , or call 0844 855 9134
A special offer includes two nights for just £89 per person.
Ski packages at the nearby Nevis Range are £62.50 per person per night including dinner and full day adult ski pass.
For more details about activities at the Nevis Range, which includes biking, climbing, hill walking, high wire adventures and skiing, visit www.nevisrange.co.uk . You can also call 01397 705 825, or email email@example.com .

Lake Forest Symphony Announces 2018-19 Season
The Lake Forest Symphony cuts ticket prices by 25% for 2018-19 Season!
The Lake Forest Symphony is proud to announce the 2018-19 Season which begins September and will feature 9 concerts of classical, jazz, contemporary and film scores, along with special events.
In a historic move, the Symphony is lowering all ticket prices by 25%. "We want to make sure that the performances by these amazing musicians are accessible to everyone." Said Timothy Corpus, Lake Forest Symphony Executive Director, "Now that the Symphony manages our own Box Office, we are able to make adjustments to meet the needs of our audience. We are focused on making the Symphony easy to access which is why we will also be releasing a brand new website this summer."
Last year, in its 60th Anniversary Season, the Symphony made a triumphant return to Lake Forest by performing at the Lake Forest Academy. The Symphony will remain in Lake Forest in the 2018-19 Season by performing two concerts in the John & Nancy Hughes Theater of the Gorton Community Center.
With the Salon Series enjoying record attendance and ticket sales, an additional special presentation has been added to the season. In March 2019, musicians of the Lake Forest Symphony will present newly-composed film scores performed live alongside modern silent films from around the world. Created by Access Contemporary Music, the Sound of Silent Film Festival includes Official Selections from the Lucerne International Film Festival, Cannes Film Festival and Academy Award-nominated short films.
Among the highlights for 2018-19, the orchestra will perform works by Copland, Bernstein, Debussy, Rachmaninov and more. The Symphony will highlight the state of Illinois in its Illinois Bicentennial Concert in November 2018. An officially endorsed event by the state of Illinois, the Lake Forest Symphony will present works by Illinois composers Jim Stephenson, Augusta Read Thomas, Stacy Garrop, and executive director Timothy Corpus.
A special collection of guest artists will perform with the orchestra, including cellist Julian Schwarz, LFS Concertmaster Netanel Draiblate and local saxophonist Russell Kerns. Making her Lake Forest Symphony concert debut, Dana Zemtsov will bring to life the popular Romantic-era work, Harold in Italy by Hector Berlioz. The Masterworks Series closes in May with the return of pianist Wael Farouk in the herculean Third Piano Concerto by Sergei Rachmaninov.
“Music is a fundamental right, not a privilege, and this season we are furthering our effort to bring live musical performances closer to every member of our community," explains Music Director Vladimir Kulenovic, "What we are continuing to achieve through our programming, as well as through the ever-increasing artistic quality or our performances, is to involve more people on the exciting journey that we started with our audience four years ago."
Customers renewing season ticket packages can access all Lake Forest Symphony 2018-2019 concerts listed below. To renew your season ticket package, call the Box Office at (847) 295-2135. New subscription sales begin on May 21 and tickets to individual concerts go on sale August 1, 2018. Subscribers enjoy a long list of benefits including priority seating, free unlimited ticket exchanges, invitations to Martinis for the Maestro, restaurant discounts, and much more.
Led by Music Director Vladimir Kulenovic, the 2018-19 Masterworks Series consists of five weekends featuring a wide range of classical repertoire. The Masterworks Series concerts take place in the James Lumber Center at the College of Lake County and the John & Nancy Hughes Theater at the Gorton Community Center. This season the Symphony has moved up its Saturday performance time to 7:30pm.
The Next 60 Years - September 8 & 9, 2018
The Lake Forest Symphony begins its season with one of Carl Maria von Weber’s most popular works, the Overture to Der Freischütz. Following the overture, one of today’s leading cellists Julian Schwarz makes his Lake Forest Symphony debut with Shostakovich’s landmark Concerto for Cello. Maestro Kulenovic then leads the orchestra in Tchaikovsky’s famed Fifth Symphony, a striking romantic staple and favorite among audiences everywhere.
Illinois Bicentennial Concert & La Mer - November 10 & 11, 2018
Illinois is turning 200! The symphony celebrates the bicentennial with music by Illinois composers Jim Stephenson, Augusta Read Thomas, Stacy Garrop, and our own Executive Director Timothy Corpus. Concertmaster Netanel Draiblate performs Stephenson’s popular violin concerto, Tributes. The concert concludes with Debussy’s monumental impressionistic work, La Mer.
Strings Attached and Detached - January 18, 19 & 20, 2019
The Lake Forest Symphony’s heraldic brass and percussion sections open the season’s most unique concert with Copland’s Fanfare for the Common Man. The works that follow by Mozart, Strauss, and Stephenson will continue to add players and saxophone soloist Russell Kerns to the stage, as well as continue Kulenovic’s Haydn Symphony cycle. The great finale will be celebrated by all forces joining together in Handel’s Royal Fireworks Music!
*January 18 & 19 will be presented in the John & Nancy Hughes Theater at the Gorton Community Center.
Beethoven & Berlioz - April 13 & 14, 2019
The Lake Forest Symphony’s Beethoven cycle continues with his highly-provocative First Symphony. Continuing with firsts, the Symphony invites one of the world’s finest emerging violists, Dana Zemtsov, for her U.S. orchestral debut! Ms. Zemtsov brings to life a popular Romantic-era programmatic work, Berlioz’s Harold in Italy, which was inspired by Lord Byron’s narrative poem Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage.
Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No. 3 - May 18 & 19, 2019
The Lake Forest Symphony begins its final concert of the season with Tchaikovsky’s exciting Polonaise, only to be silenced by the introspective and mysterious beginning of Schubert’s Unfinished Symphony. A profound and tremendous work, it was a significant factor in Maestro Kulenovic’s dedication to music from a very early age. The season concludes with pianist Wael Farouk’s return to Lake Forest in the herculean Third Piano Concerto of Sergei Rachmaninov.
Now in its third season, the Salon Series offer a special evening of music, mingling, hors d'oeuvre and drinks. Presented at the Gorton Community Center in Lake Forest, Illinois, the Salon Series offers a wide variety of musical styles in a relaxed setting with complimentary food and beverages.

|Cooking Tips You Have To Know And Do
Do you find yourself wondering how it is others cook as well as they do?
The helpful tips in this article can help anyone become a great cook.
You need to follow instructions exactly when making macaroni and cheese. The macaroni will be cooked just right and the creamy goodness of the cheese melting everywhere will be a crowd-pleaser. Serve your dish with a nice serving spoon. Sprinkle some pepper on top for added spice, and enjoy!
Being organized is a key step when planning to prepare a meal for family or friends. Gather all of your ingredients well in advance. Set all of the non-perishable ingredients and utensils out the day ahead. This will help to alleviate your anxiety and maximize your potential.
Use space-saving stackable racks for cooling. If you are baking numerous batches of cookies, the ones that are cooling can soon eat up all of your work space. The stackable cooling racks make the best use of your space and allow you to produce many more batches at the same time.
Stack your cookies vertically until they cool off, and use your work space to prepare something else.
Always make sure that the cooking utensils you are about to use are clean before starting any cooking. This is a basic but very important rule for any cook. Any leftover food residue can ruin the food you are preparing. This can also cause bacteria to spread.
Care for your wood cutting board properly. Heat, moisture and other elements can cause warping and splitting of the wood. Do not immerse the cutting board in water, instead, clean it using a sponge and warm water. You should apply oil to a board that is damaged, or to an undamaged board which you want to keep in pristine condition. It should be completely dry before its next use.
Don't waste the leftovers when you cook a turkey, whether it is for Thanksgiving or any other meal. Rather, cut up the meat and store it in an airtight container in the freezer. Keeping the turkey in the freezer allows it to stay fresh for a couple of weeks, and then it can be used for sandwiches or in a salad.
These will work as a sponge and soak up the water. You should use a clean, wet cloth and wipe the mushroom off by hand.
Blot ground meat with a paper towel before you start cooking it. Blotting the moisture away will help the meat cook better. If the moisture is left, it will undergo its natural chemical changes whilst you are cooking. This can change the way that your favorite steak cooks.
This will cause the meat to steam, instead of sear like you want it to.
Keep the bone in your roast if you're trying to make it and you have no time to spare. Heat will be distributed to the center of the roasting pan more quickly by the bone. Before serving the roast, simply cut the meat from the bone.
If you eat a lot of frozen corn, and are starting to get a little bored with it, try adding some extra ingredients to your corn to mix it up. Add some coconut flakes to give the dish a little Thai flavored zing.
Food makes life possible for us, but it can do so much more. Apply these tips to your cooking and watch how people react.
