Guidelines: Committee and secretariat
These guidelines provide a framework for good governance practises and secretariat support in the creation and management of committees and other bodies at the University.
Governance and decision making at ANU, in common with other Australian universities, is characterised by a strong emphasis on collegial advice and input. This occurs primarily through the work of committees which address policy or management issues defined by the terms of reference of each committee.
The principal elements of our committee structure are:
the governing body of the University, the University Council;
six committees of Council;
the Academic Board and its specialist committees;
senior executive committees advisory to the Vice-Chancellor;
other University policy and management committees;
an executive committee, an advisory body and other committees (e.g. education, research) in each ANU College; and
service division committees.
Committee procedures
Unless otherwise specified in an establishing document, ANU practise is that committee procedures can be determined by the Chair taking into account the views of members. In many cases, written committee procedures will not be necessary and issues can be dealt with by the Chair and meeting as they arise. However, committees with a continuing life will benefit from procedures which deal with the following:
periodicity of meetings and arrangements for calling special meetings;
who chairs if Chair unable to attend;
ANU practise is for a quorum to be 50 per cent plus one of the membership;
admission of persons who are not committee members to meetings. Sensible practise allows for the admission of persons to assist the committee or to observe committee proceedings, with due regard to confidentiality;
arrangements for alternates for members; and
arrangements for the co-option of members.
Duties of the committee Chair
The role of the Chair is pivotal in ensuring that the committee operates efficiently and effectively. Chairs should ensure:
they are clear about the terms of reference of the committee and its place in area or University governance or management;
with the advice of the members, appropriate meeting procedures are devised;
agenda items are consistent with the committee's terms of reference, authority and reporting lines;
agenda items are supported by clear and relevant background or explanatory documents;
discussion is facilitated, and where necessary moderated;
discussion is focused on the agenda item under discussion;
by way of summarising the discussion of an item, that the outcome of the discussion is clear to members and the secretary;
the membership of the committee represents a range of skill sets relevant to the work of the committee; and
the membership reflects as far as practicable the diversity of the campus community.
Duties of committee members
There are four categories of membership of committees:
ex officio, that is, the person is a member by virtue of his or her office being written into the membership of the committee;
elected by a constituency;
appointed by an officer of the University or a committee; and
co-opted by the Chair or committee to assist the committee.
Members contribute to the work of the committee by contributing in the following ways:
understanding the purposes, authority and reporting lines of the committee set out in its terms of reference;
taking the time to read agenda papers and attend meetings;
balancing their role as an advocate or representative of their constituency or area with the need to respect the larger purposes of the committee;
accepting from time to time individual tasks on behalf of the committee, such as drafting a discussion paper;
providing feedback to their constituency or area on the work of the committee as appropriate;
advising the committee secretary of absences from meetings; and
declaring any conflict of interest.
Duties of committee secretaries
The overarching role of an ANU committee secretary is to assist the Chair in ensuring that his or her committee functions effectively and efficiently. To this end a committee secretary should discuss with the Chair his or her expectations and requirements of a committee secretary. At an early meeting with the Chair of the committee, the question of committee procedures should also be discussed.
A committee secretary should be familiar with the terms of reference of the committee and its place in area or University governance or management, be able to prepare concise and clear agenda and minutes and assist if required with the preparation of discussion papers and background documents.
Templates for agenda and minutes are available from the Marketing and Student Recruitment website.
Pre-meeting tasks & agenda preparation
Give notice to members of the date, time and place of the next meeting, call for agenda items, advise the closing date for agenda items and return address for apologies.
Ensure meeting room booked and that it has appropriate AV/IT facilities.
Check that carry-over items, reports on progress or outcomes from previous meetings will be available on time.
Monitor progress of preparation of discussion papers for the agenda.
Prepare the agenda after discussing the content of the agenda content with Chair of committee.
Familiarise yourself with the substance of agenda items and with University policies relevant to items on the agenda, particularly if the committee is a decision making committee, e.g. a staff selection committee.
Circulate agenda and papers sufficiently in advance of the meeting so that members have time to read the papers.
Meeting & minutes
Arrive in time to set up the meeting room.
Check quorum and report apologies to the committee.
Record key items of discussion to provide a record of the flow of discussion and the key reason(s) for a decision being taken.
If a committee decision is not clear to you, ask the Chair to clarify the decision with the committee, preferably before dealing with the next item.
Offer information and advice to the Chair, or with the permission of the Chair, to the meeting.
Post-meeting tasks
Prepare the draft minutes for consideration by the Chair. ANU practise is to limit the content of minutes to recording background, the key points made during discussion, and then the formal resolution. We do not normally attribute comments to individuals unless the committee agrees to such action or procedures allow, though practise is to record a dissenting view, vote or abstention if a member so wishes.
Prepare an action sheet and circulate it promptly.
If it is committee procedure to circulate the minutes of meetings prior to the agenda for the next meeting, this should be done as soon as practicable after approval by the Chair.
House-keeping
Maintain a diary of terms of office and timelines for appointing or reappointing members.
Devise an appropriate induction process for new members of the committee.
Establish the scope of record keeping for your committee by consulting staff of University Records if necessary.
Ensure meeting dates are set and notified to members in good time.
Self-evaluation and reviews of committees
In line with good governance practise, Chairs are responsible for initiating periodic self-evaluation reviews of committee performance. These reviews provide an opportunity for members to reflect on the appropriateness of their terms of reference and the effectiveness of their work as a committee. Questions that might be explored include the following.
Has there been adequate access to material, information and persons?
Has there been useful feedback to the committee from persons or bodies receiving its advice?
Has the committee been informed of internal and external developments relevant to their deliberations?
Have members had ample opportunities to contribute to the work of the committee?
As with members, Chairs have the right to provide appropriate feedback to their area on the work of the committee, and the obligation to declare any conflict of interest. A Chair of a continuing committee normally would be assisted by a committee secretary, subject to resources available in the area.

Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) is a putative neurotransmitter in both the brain and peripheral tissues. To define possible target tissues of VIP we have used quantitative receptor autoradiography to localize and quantify the distribution of 125I-VIP receptor binding sites in the canine gastrointestinal tract. While the distribution of VIP binding sites was different for each segment examined, specific VIP binding sites were localized to the mucosa, the muscularis mucosa, the smooth muscle of submucosal arterioles, lymph nodules, and the circular and longitudinal smooth muscle of the muscularis externa. These results identify putative target tissues of VIP action in the canine gastrointestinal tract. In correlation with physiological data, VIP sites appear to be involved in the regulation of a variety of gastrointestinal functions including epithelial ion transport, gastric secretion, hemodynamic regulation, immune response, esophageal, gastric and intestinal motility.

xResonance is a sympathetic string simulator. It's based on a physical model of 14 independently tunable strings with some bells and whistles added. Well, it doesn't really have any bells and whistles — just strings. It does have a 5 band parametric EQ and some LFO's to help shape the sound just the way you want it, though. Download it and give it a spin — or some vibrations. It is useful to read the brief manual to get an idea of how to tweak the physical parameters to get the sympathetic strings to respond they way you want.
xResonance is a great tool for emulating instruments that have sympathetic strings or adding ambience to your instrument. It's also useful for intonation practice.

This is a story of a woman's salvation. Even having strayed from God, and in the midst of her darkness and despair, she was never alone. God was her ever-present protector, guiding her back into his gracious arms.
Net, a strong, independent woman on the outside, was physically and emotionally battered on the inside. She grew up in a lower income area of Dallas, Texas, where a brighter future and a better education were frequently a distant possibility. She remembers playing on the front porch as a child, catching butterflies, before hearing screams and looking through the screen door to see her mother being beaten. This was the first of many abusive father figures that she watched beat her mother.
Net was hurt that no one else seemed to care, nor wanted to believe the truth that she had been sexually abused.
As a young girl, Net and her family moved from the city to a smaller town called Terrell. As the years passed, it seemed that the broken pieces of her life were beginning to mend. She found support from a local pastor, whose encouragement pushed her to pursue a career in primary education. Since she had no emotional support at home, the pastor and his wife decided to take her in as their own daughter.
They began to teach her the ways of Jesus Christ and how to maintain a clean and sinless lifestyle. She attended every Bible study and Sunday service, and later joined the church choir, discovering a singing gift she didn't know she had. It seemed that life had reached some semblance of normalcy, but what would happen next, shook the foundation of the family she thought she had.
Net was alone one evening when the pastor, who had also become her godfather and role model, sexually abused her. She had been betrayed by the very person who had sworn to protect her. After the assault, she began to wonder who she could really trust. She decided to reveal the sins of her pastor to his congregation. After doing so, the pastor and his wife, who had once considered her their daughter, asked her to leave their church and never return. Net was hurt that no one else seemed to care, nor wanted to believe the truth that she had been sexually abused.
After receiving yet another emotional scar, Net abandoned her dreams, along with her faith in Christ. She felt helpless and hopeless. She had sustained her deepest wounds from within the church walls, wounds she still seeks closure from.
Net's spirit was broken in such a way that nothing seemed to fill the void, until a man named Bobby entered her life. He believed in taking care of her, providing emotional and physical support. Bobby and Net soon married, bought a home, and began building a life together. Within a couple years, they were expecting their first child.
During the middle of her pregnancy, something went terribly wrong. She went into early labor, which led to a miscarriage. They were devastated, but still determined to have a child and family. She became pregnant again but tragically suffered another miscarriage. Net felt that God had left her side. After the second miscarriage, she lost hope and decided to stop trying to get pregnant. The loss of another child would have torn her apart.
Bobby and Net began taking measures to prevent pregnancy, but to their surprise, Net was once again pregnant a year later. They had mixed feelings; on the one hand, they were happy to finally be having a child, but on the other, they were extremely concerned for the baby's well-being. At one of Net's monthly appointments, the doctor noted that her pregnancy seemed to be advancing as expected, and Net felt instant relief after so much worry and doubt.
With the help of Jesus Christ, Net overcame the abuse, abandonment, and life threatening illness that marked her life.
Although her first five months of pregnancy went by normally, Net's worst nightmare came true in her sixth month. She went into early labor and was rushed to the hospital. Her family, including her mother Mary, hurried to be at her side. Although Mary had never really been a part of Net's life, she had recently become a Christian and had assisted Net through prayer and emotional support.
After several hours, doctors explained Net's situation to her family. She had developed toxemia, a condition brought on by bacterial toxins that were causing stress on her and her unborn child. Net was too ill to continue fighting much longer, and her family was given the heartbreaking choice to save her or her child. With much difficulty, they decided to save the child.
But, God had another plan for Net's life. Despite the odds, both survived the delivery, and Net's son was born at two pounds, one ounce. One more hurdle needed to be cleared. Net's son had been born three months premature, and doctors explained that if he recovered, he would likely be blind and possibly be mentally challenged. He had also been born with an underdeveloped lung and had to remain on a respirator, under doctors' care, for more than the first year of his life.
Net prayed for hours, asking God to spare his life and to create for him a plan and a purpose. Net's son eventually won the battle, later finding the road to Christ himself. With the help of Jesus Christ, Net overcame the abuse, abandonment, and life threatening illness that marked her life. Her son, who was expected to be blind and mentally challenged, has become a passionate writer and is able to see and functions normally in society.
I am that little boy who lived, and I am evidence that God can reach beyond death and create for you a purpose, allowing others to be inspired or drawn to Him. Through it all, God is the author and finisher of our faith and because of Him, my mom and I are here today.

The amazing story of Solomon Souza and his monumental icons that have galvanised Goans and the wider art world
Vivek Menezes gives us an insider's account of the second coming of one of the biggest names in Indian art
Vivek Menezes
Published: Feb 11, 2020 | 13:01:38 IST
Adil Hasan
Even as 2019 faded to black, I became complicit in a fast-paced project playing out on the facades of buildings across my hometown of Panjim, as well as the annals of Indian art history. This plot twist featured an extraordinary cast of transnational characters, both living and dead, from athletes to writers to freedom fighters. At its core was an irresistibly personable Orthodox Jewish 26-year-old of Goan heritage, who was born and raised in London, but now lives in Tel Aviv.
If this were fiction, it would come off as implausibly fantastical. The narrative tracks back to 1949, when, after founding the all-important Progressive Artists' Group in 1947 (his cohorts Raza, Husain, and later Gaitonde, Ram Kumar, Akbar Padamsee and Tyeb Mehta now comprise the highest valued names in the Indian art world), the 20-something Francis Newton Souza decamped from Bombay to London, seeking global recognition as an artist. At one point in the 1950s, the young Goan's gamble seemed to have paid off. He was rated alongside Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud as the future of the post-War scene. The great John Berger wrote appreciatively, "How much Souza's pictures derive from Western art and how much from the hieratic temple traditions of his country, I cannot say. It is obvious that he is a superb designer and an excellent draughtsman… He straddles several traditions and serves none."
Souza made it to London with the committed support of his wife Maria, who was a decade older, and one of his first collectors. In their new home, she worked two jobs to keep her husband stocked with painting supplies, and bore him a daughter with the rather literary, lovely name of Shelley. But on the cusp of 1955 – which wound up being an extraordinarily fateful year – the artist met Liselotte Kristian (formerly Kohn), a RADA-trained actress who had fled Czechoslovakia to escape the Nazis (much of her family perished in the Holocaust). Souza fell in love, and left Maria. A few months later, his searing autobiographical essay "Nirvana of a Maggot" was published by the poet Stephen Spender in Encounter. Then came a historic solo exhibition at Victor Musgrave's famous Gallery One (Yves Klein and the experimental Fluxus artists also debuted there). It sold out. The first great modern artist of India had arrived.
But here the Souza narrative departs from the rise of Freud and Bacon. Instead of acquiring fame and fortune, then enjoying long decades of lionisation, the Goan's bandwagon became derailed by erratic choices, and fraught struggles with alcohol. He had good years with his second wife, including the birth of three daughters – Keren, Francesca and Anya – but always interspersed with volatility, then another abandonment. In 1965, the artist generated lasting scandal by marrying Barbara Zinkant, who had only just turned 17. Soon afterwards, when he received the Guggenheim International Award – along with the highest monetary prize awarded in the arts anywhere in the world – they moved to New York.
It was a pivotal decision. America never embraced Souza. The good times never returned. After his third marriage broke up in 1975, he became a kind of hermit, living in isolation in Manhattan's Upper West Side, except for annual trips to India and Pakistan to sell his artworks, the proceeds of which kept him barely afloat the rest of his days.
Better had I died. Would have saved me a lot of trouble. I would not have had to bear an artist's tormented soul, create art in a country that despises her artists and is ignorant of her heritage.
—Francis Newton Souza, Words And Lines (1957)
Today, it seems impossible to imagine that Indian art's vaunted "modern masters" were largely ignored in their lifetimes. But that's precisely what happened until Souza died in 2002. The first international auctions of Indian art had begun, accompanied by a modest surge in prices, but the artist himself never pocketed even $10,000 for a single painting. Within months of his death that record leaped to $100,000, and rapidly topped a million dollars. In 2014, his epic, compendious 1955 (that year again!) oil-on-board Birth was sold at Christies to Delhi-based collector Kiran Nadar for just over four million dollars, becoming the most expensive Indian painting (the record has since been broken).
Fragment of "Learn from an Almond Leaf" by Eunice de Souza
Even as the marketplace rewards Souza's oeuvre with buoyant valuations, adequate scholarship and recognition has lagged pitifully behind. The predicament is not unique to him, but it's perhaps most glaring in his case. There still isn't a single decent book about the life and career that produced the historic artworks that keep on appearing and disappearing into the shadows, with ever-gaudier price tags attached. Even in his own beloved homeland on the Konkan coast, there's no public awareness of Souza, let alone any mention of this meteorically brilliant artist in any school curricula. Generations of Goans grow up without ever hearing his name or seeing the paintings. It's an astonishing state of affairs. Imagine Bengal remaining ignorant of Tagore, or if Picasso was unknown in Spain.
Souza himself was white-hot angry about this wilful disregard. My acquaintance with him – which soon evolved to deep attachment – was the result of encountering his art in gallery stacks in Mumbai, then looking for his number in the phone book when my wife and I moved to Manhattan in 1995. The very first time I mustered up enough courage to dial the number (I was in my 20s, and the artist was almost 50 years older), he became livid when the topic turned to Goa. "Our people know nothing," he shouted into my ear, "they ignore me! They have no idea what my work means!"
But when I ventured to enter the lion's den, it became obvious the cantankerousness overlapped with powerful emotional attachment to our mutual homeland. In fact, Souza never stopped painting Goa, and many of his greatest works are especially redolent of his beloved Saligao, where he had enjoyed enchanted childhood years in the nurturing comfort of his ancestral home. In "Nirvana of a Maggot" he writes with great sincerity about giving thanks to "heaven that there was at least a small plot of land left on this planet that has not been poisoned by that ghastly civilisation, if it can still be called a civilisation, with its mechanised fangs which were simply and surely sucking the life out of us."
In 2008, many years after my friend had died, I passed through London at the same time as Sotheby's annual auction of modern Indian art. Someone sent me the catalogue, where Shelley Souza wrote poignantly about The Red Road (1962): "for me [it] so emphatically belonged to my mother, meaning that more than any other Souza painting in her collection, it symbolized my parents' relationship. They journeyed together through his art, from 1945, when she bought his first work for sale, until her death 50 years later." This had piqued curiosity, but nothing prepared me for the sight of that huge, spectacular painting when it was carried out by white-gloved liverymen. I found myself thunderstruck, literally breathless. Then an involuntary yelp escaped my lips, "But, that's Saligao!"
No matter that
my name is Greek
my surname Portuguese
my language alien
There are ways of belonging.
—Eunice de Souza, Fix (1979)
In 2004, I moved to Goa from New York with my wife and two sons (another one came along afterwards), as well as an insistent chip on my shoulder named Souza. From the moment of arrival, my friend's angst about being ignored in the land of our ancestors propelled my own actions and activities. The intervening years have included considerable struggle, but also important breakthroughs.
Brahmanand Sankhwalkar (Taleigao): All-time great goalkeeper and long-serving captain of India's football team, whose heroics provide many of the finest moments in Goa's long history of passion for the beautiful game. Back in 1983, he captained Goa to the Santosh Trophy with an unassailable performance, conceding exactly zero goals across 576 minutes.
A big one came in 2007 with Aparanta – the landmark group exhibition curated by Ranjit Hoskote, which showed Souza and Gaitonde in their ancestral land for the first time in many decades, as well as the Shantiniketan exemplar Angelo da Fonseca, and many younger artists alongside Dayanita Singh and Baiju Parthan (who each have strong connections to India's smallest state).
In his curatorial essay, Hoskote wrote with acute precision, "Geographical contiguity does not mean that Goa and mainland India share the same universe of meaning: Goa's special historic evolution, with its Lusitanian route to the Enlightenment and print modernity, its Iberian emphasis on a vibrant public sphere, its pride in its ancient internationalism avant la lettre, sets it at a tangent to the self-image of an India that has been formed with the experience of British colonialism as its basis. The relationship between Goa's artists and mainland India has, not surprisingly, been ambiguous and erratic, even unstable."
That dissonance has never abated, even as Goa has since emerged as one of the essential cultural poles of the Subcontinent. Now, each year, winter months unroll like an unending highlights reel: the International Film Festival of India (Asia's oldest) and the Goa Arts + Literature Festival (which I co-founded and co-curate with the eminent Konkani writer, Damodar Mauzo) to the spectacular Monte Music Festival, and the DD Kosambi Festival of Ideas (previous speakers have included the Dalai Lama) as well as many other events. Right in the middle of this run is the four-year-old Serendipity Arts Festival (SAF), with its eight-day calendar showcasing veritable dream teams from every genre of the Indian arts. Nothing like it has ever existed before.
For 2019 – marking my third year of curatorial involvement with SAF – the festival director Smriti Rajgarhia gave the go-ahead for me to pursue Mundo Goa – "to highlight the infinitely varied ways of being and belonging that artists, writers and intellectuals derive from Goa's unique cultural scenario, with its deep-rooted connections across the Subcontinent, to Africa, South America and Europe, and more recently North America and Australasia." There were many names on my wish list, but the one that began ringing insistently in my head even as Rajgarhia was still mouthing the word "yes", was Souza.
Chic Chocolate (Aldona): Ae trumpeter and iconic jazzman who performed across the British Raj in the 1940s- with notable long stints in Rangoon and Mussoorie- then settled into lasting celebrity as a Bollywood music composer and director.
Eunice de Souza: One of the great Indo- Anglian poets of the 20th century, and influential academic figure at St Xavier's College in Mumbai, where countless students credit her with igniting their love of language.
Vamona Navelcar (Pomburpa): Extraordinary bridge figure of Goan art, whose work spans years in Mozambique and Portugal, as well as his native village on the Mandovi riverfront. Next year, his first-ever career retrospective will be hosted at the Museu do Oriente in Lisbon.
The dramatic turn of events happened because in 1993, in London, Keren Souza-Kohn had a son. In 2000, following her renewed devotion to Judaism via the Chabad-Lubavitch Hasidic movement, they moved to Israel. His grandfather might have been largely forgotten and abandoned during his last decades in New York, but that wasn't the case in Solomon's childhood. The younger Souza told me he grew up surrounded with stories of his remarkable forebear, as well as a slew of original works that worked a powerful effect on his thinking, "a rock steady foundational presence in my life from day one."
Solomon never studied painting, but began "tagging" illegal graffiti in his early teens in the unruly streets of Hackney, London. Then in 2015, he embarked on a series of striking tributes to contemporary and historical figures on the shutters of the gritty Mahane Yehude Market in Jerusalem: Golda Meir and Menachem Begin, but also Mahatma Gandhi, Albert Einstein and Bob Marley, as well as an appreciable cohort of Palestinians and Israeli Arabs. By 2017, Solomon had begun to attract international attention, and I first mentioned his name to Rajgarhia as someone to bring to Goa. Two years later, I found myself walking through the streets of Old Panjim, watching him point with gleaming eyes to high walls I'd barely noticed before, "we should do that one, and that one, and that one".
Sita Valles (near Panjim market): This fearless Marxist anti-colonial revolutionary often referred to as "Passionaria de Angola" or Passion Flower of Angola (in the background of Solomon's image are the tendrils of the passion flower) was executed in Launda in 1977, at the age of 26.
He later told me, "I had always hoped and planned on visiting Goa at some point, and when you reached out to me I felt the gears of the cosmos turn, and my stars align. What, at first, could be described as surreal, soon became super real, and I realised that I would be embarking on an unearthing of my roots and reconnecting to a past I had little knowledge of." Yet, what actually happened on the ground after he arrived was indeed quite unreal: the 26-year-old became seamlessly absorbed into the community of young Goan artists, disappearing into the night with several of them within minutes of being first introduced at the location of one of my other Serendipity projects, Azulejo 2019. Seemingly instantaneously, he became an indispensable neighbourhood fixture: "Amchem Solomon."
Since he observes Shabbat – the Jewish Sabbath which extends from sundown on Fridays through Saturday – Solomon worked for just about 30 days in Goa, in which time he completed an astounding 20 murals, several of them multiple stories high, rendered by dangling from the business end of the longest cranes we could find. Each aspect of the project was an absorbing, deeply fascinating process of discussion and negotiation – we shortlisted icons who were unquestionably important, but also lacked widespread recognition, then sought to select the precise individual to resonate with both artist and building owner. Before painting, the third member of our team, Daphne de Souza wrangled all the necessary signatures, including city authorisation.
In all this, the strategic move that played out most significantly was beginning the journey in Souza's ever-beloved Saligao, which Solomon told me was "a real homecoming. From the moment I entered the village, I began to tingle and buzz. I cannot fully explain it. I became excited, wanting to wander every alley, and roam every field. I felt like a piece of a puzzle, missing for so long, and here I was being slotted back into place. Within hours I garnered a host of aunties and uncles, accepted as if I had always been there." In rapid succession, the artist painted Sacrula (an eccentric 1970s-era community favourite), the Karachi-born sports impresario Anthony de Mello (who founded the BCCI in 1928) and all-time great Indo-Anglian poet Eunice de Souza (she died in 2017 without anyone in Saligao ever recognising she belonged to them).
In this way, a consequential circle began to close. It was back during Aparanta in 2007 that Eunice had read out her stunning poem about "ways of belonging" for the first time in Goa, an indelible moment which produced substantial impact on me and many others. We all realised together that the phrase perfectly describes the cultural experience of this ancient sliver of the Konkan coastline, with its diaspora scattered from Mumbai and Manchester to Abu Dhabi and Adelaide – and indeed Jerusalem – but almost always retaining infinitely variable connections to the homeland.
And that is precisely what Solomon paid tribute to on walls across the state: champion sprinter Seraphino Antao (who represented Kenya), martyred anti-colonial "passion flower of Angola" Sita Valles, lifelong friends Lata Mangeshkar and Anthony Gonsalves, football's Brahmanand Sankhwalkar and cricket's Dilip Sardesai. Each one of them embraced as Goan, as was the young artist. This story will most likely have more chapters. For one, there's still Souza senior to paint – and the intention is to do it in Saligao – but our project has already exceeded all possible expectations. Sometimes the curator is merely a vessel, and fate directly inscribes history. That is what happened in Goa, in this transcendent moment of inclusion at precisely the right juncture in this nation's history.

Carrera y Carrera pays tribute to majestic animal
ECUESTRE COLLECTION
Magnificent works of art inspired by the elegance and majesty of the horse.
The Purebred Spanish horse, emblematic, beautiful, proud, dependable, brave, and admired all over the world for centuries. This is the Andalusian horse, an animal with thousands of years of history, and today, the devotion continues stronger than ever. Carrera y Carrera pays tribute to this majestic animal as the protagonist of its new collection, Ecuestre.
Manuel Carrera, master goldsmith and founder of the firm, has infused these creations with the personal style that has transformed the jewelry brand into a worldwide benchmark. Passionate about the equestrian world, he has imbued each piece with his unique flair, creating true works of art.
Carrera y Carrera is proud to introduce these magnificent pieces, exquisitely carved and detailed, true to the noble and impetuous curves of this beautiful animal. Gold, diamonds, and amethysts bring these creations to life. The characteristic matte-gloss finish of the gold enhances the lines, volume, and movement of this striking animal. The most authentic and traditional Spanish horsemanship combines with the expertise and craftsmanship of the master goldsmiths of Carrera y Carrera in these pieces.
A collection created for passionate, strong, and sophisticated women, comprised of two sets of impressive pieces in yellow gold with diamonds and vibrant amethysts.

Shortly after WWII, Schlattner and his family were forced to flee their home in Czechoslovakia. They were evacuated from the country due to a mass eviction of Germans by the government.
When Schlattner got the chance to return to his childhood home nearly 70 years later, he remembered a secret his father taught him.
AFTER REACHING OUT TO THE CZECH REPUBLIC GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS, 80-YEAR-OLD SCHLATTNER WAS ABLE TO ARRANGE A RETURN TO HIS CHILDHOOD HOME WHICH HAS SINCE BEEN CONVERTED INTO A KINDERGARTEN.
WHEN HE WAS A CHILD, SCHLATTNER'S FATHER TOLD HIM ABOUT SOME FAMILY POSSESSIONS HE HAD HIDDEN AWAY BEFORE THEY LEFT THE COUNTRY. THE HIDING PLACE INVOLVED A PIECE OF STRING HANGING FROM ONE OF THE WOODEN PANELS IN THE ATTIC.
AFTER PULLING THE STRING, A SET OF HIDDEN SHELVES WERE REVEALED, CONTAINING FAMILY HEIRLOOMS SCHLATTNER'S FATHER HAD HIDDEN NEARLY 70 YEARS AGO. MOST OF THEM WERE STILL IN GREAT SHAPE!
THE HOUSE HAD UNDERGONE NUMEROUS REPAIRS SINCE ITS CONSTRUCTION IN 1928 — INCLUDING A NEW ROOF — YET SOMEHOW, THIS FAMILY TREASURE HAD REMAINED INTACT AND UNDISCOVERED. NEARLY 70 PACKAGES IN TOTAL WERE DISCOVERED.
IT'S INCREDIBLE HOW WELL SCHLATTNER'S FATHER WAS ABLE TO HIDE ALL OF THESE ITEMS. WHAT'S MORE IMPRESSIVE, HOWEVER, IS THE MANNER IN WHICH HE HID THEM. REPORTEDLY, SCHLATTNER WALKED AROUND TAPPING THE WOOD PANELS WITH A SMALL HAMMER, LISTENING FOR A REACTION. WHEN HE HEARD THE CORRECT SOUND, HE FOUND THE STRING, WHICH ACTED AS A TRIGGER FOR THE HIDDEN SHELVES!
SINCE THE GOVERNMENT CAN LEGALLY KEEP ANY ITEMS LEFT BEHIND BY GERMANS IN THE POST-WAR ERA, THE ITEMS WILL BE KEPT AT A MUSEUM. SCHLATTNER IS JUST HAPPY TO GET TO SEE THEM AGAIN.

At the river, you can move with the flow of power. You simply yield to the flow. The current of peace will support you, as you flow in the right direction. You give up your struggle and surrender to the gentle flow. God says, "Behold, I will extend peace . . . like a river . . . like a flowing stream" (Isaiah 66:12).
The river will wash away the stains of life. The river can make you clean. Anyone may come. No one is turned away. What the river can do for one, the river can do for all. The river is never a respecter of persons. All may come. Everyone can go away clean. Say to God, "Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin" (Psalm 51:2). That's the river of God.
Pray the Word: God, forgive my sins and take them away, that I may flow in Your peace. Cleanse me from every sin, through the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
Do the Word: Understand that it's God's will for you to live in peace. Confess your sins to God. Receive cleansing from all your sin through Jesus Christ. Rest in God and flow in His peace. The power of God's peace will direct your life.

It's obvious to some that Trump's rise is the logical conclusion of a long decades of insanity by the Republican party in the name of winning elections, starting with the Southern strategy of Nixon, up to George W. Bush's compassionate conservatism.
But this article is not by outsider, but rather a leading neoconservative which makes the declarations of the article much stronger.
If The Donald wins the primaries, which seems more likely everyday, the GOP might be heading to a huge loss in November. I hoping it's the kind that leads to some soul-searching.
Let's be clear: Trump is no fluke. Nor is he hijacking the Republican Party or the conservative movement, if there is such a thing. He is, rather, the party's creation, its Frankenstein's monster, brought to life by the party, fed by the party and now made strong enough to destroy its maker.
Then there was the party's accommodation to and exploitation of the bigotry in its ranks. No, the majority of Republicans are not bigots. But they have certainly been enablers.

Sold! Weekly Self-Storage News Round Up 4.27.22

The Roll Up: Weekly Self-Storage Development News 4.27.22
Bruce Goldberg/ April 27, 2022 September 30, 2022
Dallas leads nation in new self-storage development
by Bruce Goldberg on April 27, 2022 October 3, 2022
Where are the hottest markets for self-storage development?
Three U.S. markets stood out when Union Realtime LLC of New York, NY released its study about who's generating the most heat in self-storage these days:
Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, Texas CBSA, with 7,698,747 square feet of self-storage development
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ-PA CBSA with 14,777,229 square feet
Phoenix-Mesa-Scottsdale, AZ CBSA with 7,516,436 square feet.
Big Storage in the Big D
Dallas-Fort-Worth-Arlington expects to have a 10.7% increase in total supply once it completes all its development projects and now has 71,945,083 square feet of existing supply, the most of any CBSA in the nation. Texas is experiencing rapid population growth, raising the need for more self-storage.
"It looks like despite the large amount of supply already in the area, developers are still bullish on this market as almost 7.7 million square footage of supply is going to be added," wrote James McLean, market analyst with Union Realtime.
He also advises: "Don't expect rates to rise in that market. When you add this much space, rates don't really spike."
Among the giant REITs in the Dallas area are Public Storage, which in late April 2021 spent $1.8 billion to purchase the ezStorage portfolio with 48 properties totaling 14.2 million NRSF. Public Storage also bought a portfolio of 56 facilities for $1.5 billion in early November 2021, focused in the Dallas market.
The Storage Beat checked in with a few Texas-based experts to learn more what's making storage boom in Dallas.

The cultivation of legumes becomes increasingly more interesting since some years, if it is to the fulfillment of the greening editions or within the framework of the promotion of the soybean cultivation in Germany and the animal care with native protein.
With the cultivation of e.g. soybeans, pea grains, lupins or field beans some points must be considered in the production technology, particularly in fertilization.
In the cultivation of legumes the question frequently arises, which foliar fertilization measures can be carried out. Even if legumes are able to bind symbiotic atmospheric nitrogen, macronutrients like potassium, phosphorus, sulphur, magnesium as well as trace nutrients like boron, molybdenum, manganese, zinc should be taken into account in the basic fertilization. The nitrogen appropriation property depends relevantly on a weighed out nutrient care, which should be given basically via soil.To promote the formation of the nodules as well as the formation of the flourish, a good potassium care is essential. The leaf quality and resistance of the plant is controlled by a good manganese and magnesium care. The protein salary can be improved by a good sulphur and potassium dose.
If a visible lack appears on account of adverse weather conditions (e.g. cold, wet, dry) or on account of an insufficient appropriation property of nutrients, so one can fall back on the product range of Lebosol®. Also a non-visible (latent) lack leads to yield and quality losses. For the diagnosis of nutrient lack symptoms we recommend therefore the implementation of a complex plants analysis.
With legumes a lack of molybdenum, boron and manganese is found out frequently. Here the causes might be a low pH value of the soil or bad weather conditions. The effective care of the crop with these nutrients is carried out via foliar application. In addition the following products are available to you: Lebosol®-Molybdän, Lebosol®-Bor and Lebosol®-Mangan GOLD SC. If there is a lack of macronutrients, you can supply also via leaf. Legumes take sulphur gratefully. Here Lebosol®-Schwefel 800 SC has proved itself. The product Lebosol®-PK-Max will be important, if the elements phosphorus and potassium are needed, because the admission from the soil is not sufficient. Both elements have,like the Sulphur, an important function with the utilization of the self-won nitrogen.
The application of sheet fertilizers in legumes can be combined with the already planned application crossings of plant protection agents. The ideal application moment begins from 6-leaf-stage.
For the improvement of the efficiency of plants protection measures as well as for the decrease of stress (e.g. caused by weather or by herbicides) we recommend the application of Aminosol®.
In unfavourable weather, the application of soil herbicides also leads to stress (rain after application). Here the addition of 0,4 l/ ha Herbosol® can prevent, that the active substance is shifted too quickly.


Want some Mercury with that?
Like it or not, chances are you're getting some with your ketchup along with other foods you are feeding yourself and your family.
I've been reading several of my favorite mom blogs lately and the topic of the Washington Post article discussing the recent findings of mercury in HFCS (high fructose corn syrup) in many products. If you didn't get to read about this is a great post about the article. Read this article for more information.
I, like so many other moms, worry about what goes into our growing children as well as what we give to all our family members. A TOXIN such ad Mercury certainly isn't something I want to feed my family. Mercury is toxic in all its forms. There is a list of 55 brand name products that were found to contain mercury. Some of them I had in my own home and had been feeding to my family. To say the least, I will no longer be purchasing those items. But what else is it in that we don't know about?
The number of children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorders and developmental delays is growing at an epidemic alarming rate. Is there any wonder why with Mercury in the foods we feed our children? Mercury is a known neurotoxin. I have a child with develpomental delays and the last thing I want to do is add more toxins especially Mercury to his body. It sickens me to no end that the FDA allows such things to occur.
I came across a report you may find interesting reading: Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy Not So Sweet: Missing Mercury and High Fructose Corn Syrup. Table 3 might interest you too.
When will they realize what damage they are doing to our children?


Chicago filming where will it fit in the movie?
Discussion in 'Transformers Movie Discussion' started by tonks00, Jul 16, 2010.
So I'm curious, is this the climax or more the middle, possibly the intro. Thoughts?
I kinda want it to be in the middle. I think it would make a good dramatic point point in the movie. I would perfer the final fight to be in some other locale. Don't know where though.
Have you seen how much makeshift destruction they have on the Chicago set? It's insane. I'm 99% sure that it's meant to be the finale, especially since all the principal actors (Shia, Rosie, Tyrese, and Josh) are on set along with all (or the majority of) the Autobots.
But, only time will really tell.
Isn't Moscow also supposed to be the sight of a big battle as well? My thoughts are that this could be a fairly big/important part of the filming, but the final duel in Moscow, though going by history, the overseas battles have been used earlier on in films (Shanghai and Qatar both used in first halves of TF1 and ROTF) but then again, final battle was in Egypt.
Wait and see what filming from Moscow brings us and we'll have a better idea.
I say it's towards the end.
We don't know if the movie is going to be a two acts one like Transformers2 or a classic three acts one like the first Transformers movie.
The movie is at least going to be as long as the first one in the 140minutes range.. but maybe they will go up to 165minutes range like Avatar..
The battle in Chicago is likely to happen in the first half of the movie.. otherwise those three actors would have appeared already..
Well, Bay said that Megatron was not returning on Transformers2 ..
And Bay said that the Twins wouldn't be returning on Transformers3..
Yeah. But that's information regarding specific Transformers. This is regarding an actual scene/filming location. I don't recall Bay saying that Egypt wasn't going to be in ROTF, or that the Hoover Dam was a hoax.

Looking for a sweet book about friendship?
Stick. Stone. Lonely. Alone. A zero. A one. Alone is no fun.
Stick and Stone are unhappily lonely.
and they enjoy fun and adventure together until a fierce storm separates them.
The story ends happily for the 2 friends - and Pinecone - who has undergone an attitude adjustment.
I bought this book by accident. As much as you can actually buy something by accident. I thought that it was another book when, very quickly, putting in my June Scholastic order. Happy mistake.
2. Beth Ferry's gently rolling rhyming text.
3. Stick speaks out against Pinecone's mean words. The message is not overly didactic, but not so subtle that it floats over wee heads.
4. The story would work equally as well as a class read aloud, a lap-time read and snuggle book, and a read to yourself (in kindergarten there are 3 ways to read - read the words, read the pictures and retell the story) book.
5. I like sticks and stones.
Here's a quick read from Psychology Today why playing with sticks is good for kids.
They are fabulous props for all sorts of games.
There are so many things you can do with a stick - it really is nature's perfect toy -- Housing a Forest.
Painting patterns on sticks - art, math and a beautiful building tool -- Tutus & Teaparties.
Create words with alphabet rocks -- Childhood 101. When I made alphabet rocks, I put them in their own separate basket and included them in a variety of interesting (at least I though so) invitations to explore. No takers. As soon as I mixed them up with other rocks, they were suddenly an item of curiosity.
A couple of "stick" and "stone" books that come with a k-kids seal of approval. Click on the graphic to go to the Goodreads summary and reviews.
Love these book and activities! So fun when you can do something in relation to the books you're reading.
I wanted to invite you to join the Cozy Reading Spot, we share posts on what has been on our hearts, minds and bookshelves, and I think you'd be a great addition to our community. Stop by any time this weekend, if you want.
Thanks for the invitation - I will be checking our your Cozy Reading Spot soon.
The illustrations remind me of the book Spoon, which we enjoy. I love how you gave ideas on kids activities too. My daughter loves painting. We haven't gone outside for sticks and stones, just leaves. That is a good idea.
I will have to check out Spoon. I love Amy Krouse Rosenthal's book Exclamation Mark. Happy stick and stone painting.
Wow! Great post. I love all these ideas. I'm pinning!
I love an accidental purchase that turns into a favorite! It's such a treat! Thanks for sharing this book at Booknificent Thursday on Mommynificent.com! I appreciate reading your thoughts on it.

Birx hopes to tell Biden Monday in regards to the coronavirus
White House Coronavirus Task Force Response Coordinator Deborah Birx speaks as President Donald Trump listens during the daily briefing on the novel coronavirus COVID-19 on April 21, 2020 in the Brady Briefing Room of the White House in Washington, DC.

WASHINGTON – The White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx said she hoped to brief the administration of President-elect Joe Biden on America's response to the Covid-19 pandemic on Monday.
"I think the only thing we can tell the Biden administration in this discussion is to understand how they want to see the data," Birx said during a Sunday interview on CBS "Face the Nation".
The Biden transition team did not immediately respond to CNBC's request for comment.
Birx stated that over the past nine months the federal government has been compiling detailed data that could be used to track and measure the virus, a key component in shaping the response effort. Birx, referring to statewide data, also raised concerns about a possible spike in coronavirus cases in the United States due to Thanksgiving.
"On Memorial Day weekend we had less than 25,000 a day, we only had 30,000 inpatients in the hospital, and we had far fewer mortality rates, well under a thousand," Birx said.
"We're entering this post-Thanksgiving wave with three, four and ten times as many diseases across the country. That's what worries us most," said Birx, referring to her colleague, White House coronavirus advisor, Dr . Anthony Fauci.
"We know people may have made mistakes during the Thanksgiving period," Birx said, adding, "when you're young and you've gathered you need to be tested about five to ten days later."
"And if you are over 65 or have comorbidities and have gathered on Thanksgiving and develop symptoms, you need to be tested right away," Birx said.
Travelers pass by O'Hare International Airport ahead of Thanksgiving Day during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic in Chicago, Illinois on November 25, 2020.

Last week, the secretary for health and human services, Alex Azar, the official who oversaw transition planning, told the Biden team about Operation Warp Speed, the program tasked with developing the coronavirus vaccine.
"We get all the materials prepared for the transition meeting immediately," said Azar on Tuesday.
"We will ensure coordinated briefings with them to ensure they get all the information they think is necessary," said Azar, adding that "the planning and execution of the transition will be professional, collaborative and collaborative."
The attempt to inform the prospective Biden administration of the looming health crisis puts an end to weeks of delays in the formal handover of President Donald Trump after the US presidential election.
And with less than 12 weeks remaining in the Trump administration, the president did not give the election to Biden.
Trump has also been criticized for not doing enough to control the spread of the deadly disease.
Since its inception, the coronavirus has claimed at least 1.44 million lives and infected more than 61.64 million people worldwide, according to Johns Hopkins University. With more than 13 million coronavirus cases, the US is facing the most severe outbreak relative to the total. More than 264,000 people in the United States have died from the disease.
Earlier this month, Pfizer and its partner BioNTech filed with the Food and Drug Administration for emergency approval for their Covid-19 vaccine. The FDA process is expected to take a few weeks, and an advisory committee meeting to review the vaccine is planned for early December.
Pfizer announced on July 22 that the US had agreed to purchase 100 million doses of its vaccine for up to $ 1.95 billion. The agreement, which is part of Operation Warp Speed, allows the US to purchase an additional 500 million doses of vaccine.

"String Art" is the name of the art form that transforms thousands of nails and just as many feet of thread into unique masterpieces. Some artists have developed techniques to create photorealistic string art works, but until now, there was no way around the tedious and time-consuming manufacturing process. Depending on the size, it can take months to complete a single piece by hand.
The threading process as shown in this video – (c) Laarco 2016.
Now, you might think, wouldn't it be great to build a sophisticated "nail and thread"-machine that takes care of the whole assembly process, from placing the nails on the board to winding the string around the nails? The people behind Laarco, a design studio in London, UK, did exactly that. Their project "Autograph" is effectively a large scale "printer" for string art, capable of satisfying the increasing demand for this form of image reproduction.
While they are not shy to show their amazing results, mostly string-art-converted photographs of celebrities, we will probably not get a full documentation on the hardware and software behind Autograph. After all, it took them four years of development to build this fully automated machine, and they are about to turn their string boss-ness into a strong business: You can now buy their unique string art pieces starting at $1,100.
Too expensive? Well, you can still build your own: The brain of the machine is a Raspberry Pi which sends commands to an Arduino Mega equipped with a 3D printer shield. The gantry design looks very similar to a popular low-cost CNC-mill, however, they added a custom tool head to position and uncoil the thread while keeping it under tension.
In preparation of an assembly pass, the nail positions are derived from Voronoi diagrams, an unknown mechanism then picks and places the nails into pre-drilled holes. During the threading run, the height of the tool head increases as the process progresses to avoid collisions with previous string segments.
"The gantry design looks very similar to a popular low-cost CNC-mill".
It's an eShapeOko, a version of the ShapeOko by http://amberspyglass.co.uk/.
I'd say the portal is borrowed from an X-Carve, looks like they replaced the beam, though.
It's an eShapeOko, from amberspyglass.co.uk.
thanks! It seems to range from £270 to £400, which is not too bad..
Does anybody have any idea to what tolerance this eShapeoko CNC can cut wood? And how deep?
"string boss-ness into a strong business" Now that's some writing style! Nicely done.
I loved that as well. Came out of nowhere and left me smiling.
If I were going to try and put that many nails in a board I would mill each hole with a short counterbore with a slip fit diameter. That way, once the milling is done, I can quickly place and orient all the nails, then come through and hammer them in a few more mm into the smaller diameter pilot.
Also, I doubt the nail placement is just a Voronoi algorithm. Center of mass Voronoi tends to place points in a line, which is not optimal in very dark areas for this thead tequnique.
I suspect that means the nails that make up the image are done with corner and edge detection, leaving voronoi algorithms for just the space filling. If I were the then venture an artistic and mathematical guess, I would guess that the voronoi algorithm isn't done in Euclidean distance, but maybe Mahalanobis.
The machine is the work of art. The output is bonus.
Hmm. How to do color? Multiple strings or perhaps dynamically apply dye during the process?
yeah, my thought was as well: it wouldn't be much harder to work with colored strings, would it?
It depends on whether it uses multiple bobbins and can change them without human interaction.
Does it drill the holes too?
This is extremely impressive. Awesome.
Even though I've been thinking about it since this was posted, I can't find an algorithmically pleasing way to finding the path to wrap the wire, any ideas on how they do it?
Do they sell the machines? Lol. I run a string art business and this would be incredible!

Cheering for 'Damn Yankees'
at Foothill Music Theatre
Excellent cast, ensemble bring the classic musical to life
OK, so there were a couple of problems with the show at the Sunday matinee of "Damn Yankees" at Foothill Music Theatre.
But it's still a delightful production in almost every way, and I am here today to encourage you to go see this wonderful show.
I grew up watching the 1958 movie on television, and loving it. Sunday at Foothill Music Theatre was the first time I've seen it live, and it was an almost complete blast.
The music and lyrics, by Richard Adler and Jerry Ross, are the things of legend, with great song after song — "Goodbye Old Girl," "Shoeless Joe from Hannibal, MO," "A Man Doesn't Know," "Two Lost Souls" and "Whose Got the Pain?" among them.
But those tunes — all the kinds of songs that would have people humming them on the way out of the auditorium — are overwhelmed by the killer tunes, (You've gotta have) "Heart" and "Whatever Lola Wants," which have become a part of the lingua fraca.
Matt Tipton as Joe Boyd, left, and Mary Melnick as Meg Boyd in "Damn Yankees."
And this production has a collection of excellent singers, who deliver all the tunes with, indeed, a lot of heart, from the principals to the ensemble.
It's the story of Joe Boyd, a middle-aged fellow who loves his wife, but tends to forget she exists during the baseball season. Which is why she sings "Six Months Out of Every Year," wherein she talks about meeting him in November and agreeing in December to marry him. What a surprise she got in April, when the season opened.
Joe loves the Washington Senators, a very consistent team — they lose every game.
He says he'd sell his soul to help them win, which brings the attention of Mr. Applegate, who's willing to make that deal.
Joe, a shrewd real-estate agent, insists on an escape clause. He has till September 24 to change his mind. The rest of the play is Joe becoming a baseball phenom who bats over .500, and Applegate trying to make sure that Joe doesn't exercise his escape clause.
The fine singing starts with Matt Tipton as Old Joe and Mary Melnick as his wife, Meg, singing "Six Months Out of Every Year," with the excellent ensemble. The men's part: "You're blind, ump! You're blind, ump! You must be out of your mind, ump!"
The lovely ballad, "Goodbye Old Girl" starts with Old Joe singing, before Applegate transforms him into young Joe Hardy, who is sung and played by Daniel Mitchell. Both men sing very well.
Then we meet the team, led by Richard Lewis as manager Benny Van Buren, who gets the boys of summer to sing "Heart." Lewis looks born to play this role. He has the crusty old manager look, from his gape-mouthed face to his pot belly to his cleats walk. Plus, he's a great singer, and is fun to watch every moment he's on stage.
Mitchell is very good as young Joe Hardy. Terrific, booming voice, and a fine job of showing his love for his wife — abandoned by the older Joe.
Jen Wheatonfox is delightful and fun as Lola, with a light of humor shining in her eyes, and plenty of hot moves as the vamp who is supposed to seal the deal with Joe.
Jeff Clarke as Mr. Applegate, left, and Jen Wheatonfox as Lola in "Damn Yankees" at Foothill Music Theatre.
Jeff Clarke is hilarious as Mr. Applegate, milking every moment of Applegate's insidious scheming and frustrated anger for every possible laugh.
Tipton and Melnick don't look old enough for their roles, but little matter. They both sing and act with great skill and emotion. Holly Smolik and Dana Johnson, as the Miller sisters, work hard for, and earn, the biggest laughs of the show.
The ensemble and dancers are great fun, and perform with solid enthusiasm and skill.
The scenic design by Margaret Toomey is simple but attractive and functional. The front of Old Joe's house is very charming. Janis Bergmann's costumes are great fun, reviving what would have looked right at home in the 1950s.
The aforementioned problems?
The bad news began with the overture. The 13-piece ensemble, conducted by Catherine Snider, went off key a few times in the overture, and continued to do so from time to time in the show. Teeth-gratingly off tune. We know pit orchestras face odd problems sometimes, but hope this group gets its music together soon. They had moments of excellence, marred by some ... unpleasant moments.
The other bad news was the wireless microphones system. Certainly needed in the huge Smithwick Theatre, but the gear needs to be properly maintained and worn. Lots of pops and clicks throughout the show, and plenty of noise from an actor or a costume dragging against the mic.
The absolute worst moment came when Mitchell and Wheatonfox were starting to sing "Two Lost Souls." During the tender part on the bench, before the big ensemble dance scene, Wheatonfox' mic popped and crashed so loudly that Mitchell actually jumped. It happened a second time, even louder, and Mitchell jumped again and looked, reasonably, terrified. But he came up with a great line anyway, for a character who is supposedly selling his soul: "God doesn't like this deal."
Wheatonfox's mic was dead for the rest of that scene, which was a crime. "Two Lost Souls" is a jumpin', jazzy number with the full ensemble dancing and getting drunk in a bar, and the performance Sunday was great, except Wheatonfox could not be heard. A hot duet with only once voice heard.
A theater professional, Wheatonfox carried on, but we would have been better served if director Tom Gough — who otherwise did a fine job marshalling this fine, huge cast — would have simply stopped the show and changed Wheatonfox's mic.
It's not like anybody in Los Altos Hills, nevermind in the auditorium, didn't know there was a problem.
The scene marched on anyway, and my guess is it was largely the original Bob Fosse choreography, with the kind of monstrous gambles for which he was known — three people slumped over each other but parading across the stage; a fellow sidling across the stage on his hands as a string bass while another fellow plucked his legs as "strings." And helped along by choreographer Katie O'Bryon. A fantastic, Boschian scene that would have been better if we could have heard Wheatonfox.
The show goes on for "Damn Yankees" through August 18, 2013, and it seems likely that the orchestra will improve. And, we hope, the sound system will be fixed. Those things done, this is a great show.
Daniel Mitchell as Joe Hardy, center, is surrounded by the Washington Senators in "Damn Yankees" at Foothill Music Theatre, July 26-August 18, 2013, in the Smithwick Theatre, Foothill College.

Vulnerable patients at St Vincent's Hospital forced to wait outside in cold car park before getting medical help
The conditions have been slammed as 'unacceptable'
Donal MacNamee
St Vincents Hospital
Vulnerable mental health patients at a leading Dublin hospital are being forced to wait in a cold car park until they can be seen by a medical professional.
Dublin City Councillor Anthony Flynn has slammed the "unacceptable" conditions St Vincent's University Hospital where some patients are being made to wait outside in the cold and rain before being called in for a consultation.
The measures, which are in place due coronavirus, have drawn the ire of mental health advocates, who say it's not acceptable that some are forced to remain outside in freezing conditions.
William Cummings, an advocacy worker with Dublin's Inner City Helping Homeless, said he was shocked to discover patients waiting outside the hospital when he attended the hospital with a vulnerable client yesterday.
Mr Cummings said he was advised by the hospital that he could bring the patient to the hospital's walk-in service – but when they got there they were told to wait outside.

"I find this totally unacceptable that this is being allowed to happen," he told Dublin Live.
While waiting at St Vincent's, Mr Cummings saw a number of other people waiting in the car park waiting to be called in.
"I believe it is totally unacceptable when a person is at their most vulnerable that would be asked to wait in the vehicle or in a cold car park," he added.
"Covid has impacted people's mental health and our government is advising people to reach out and say we are all in this together.
"We are all suffering and we are all together in the car park."
Cllr Flynn wrote to the hospital this morning demanding an explanation for the decision to ask patients – "many of whom had no access to shelter or a car whilst waiting" – to remain outside until they were called.
"Whilst I understand that we are living in unprecedented times and there is an increase in demand on your services, I don't believe it is appropriate that patients are left outside in the cold & rain in this manner," Cllr Flynn said, in a letter seen by Dublin Live.

A spokesperson for the hospital said: "To keep patients and staff safe in the current pandemic, St Vincent's University Hospital has implemented guidelines for all patients attending outpatients appointments, including advice for those arriving early for appointments.
"Given the ease with which Covid-19 is transmitted, it is not advisable for people to congregate in waiting rooms or in hospital corridors, before their appointments."
Patients who arrive early for appointments at the hospital are asked to wait outside, either in a car or outside the hospital buildings.
But it's not clear what the official protocol is for walk-in patients seeking help with mental health issues.
The mental health unit at St Vincent's – Elm Mount – is run by the HSE rather than the hospital itself.
The HSE has been contacted for comment on the matter.
