Circulation and Computer Policy
approved 10/14/2008
Library cards are issued immediately if you have a photo identification and proof of current residential address at the time of application. A post office box is not a sufficient address. Mail may be used as proof of address if it has been postmarked within two weeks of the current date.
Persons eligible for library cards must be a resident of Kalona, Riverside or unincorporated Washington County. Also, persons living within the service area of an Iowa library, approved for reciprocal borrowing through the Open Access Program (check at the Registration Desk for confirmation.)
Children who fit the residence requirements and are at least 5 years old are eligible for a library card according to the discretion of their parents or legal guardian. Parental signature is required for persons under age 14. Responsibility for a child's selection and return of materials, and any fines or charges accrued on the child's card, is held by the parent or guardian of the child.
Older children (age 14 and up) not accompanied by a parent need to have photo identification (like that issued at school or driver's permit/license) and address verification (mail recently sent to the child is acceptable.) Another way to verify the child's address is for us to send the library card to the child's address. If a parent is not present at the time of application, checkout may be limited to two items until the child receives a physical library card.
Applicants for a temporary library card must provide proof of local residence. If the applicant has no proof of residence, a voucher from the applicant's landlord or other local property owner must be provided.
Persons without a permanent address in the Kalona area are eligible to register to use the computers. A photo i.d., such as a driver's license, is required. Registration forms are available at the circulation desk.
If a person forgets his or her library card, it is possible to borrow materials once with photo identification. Borrowers must present their library card the next time they borrow materials, or purchase a replacement card.
Lost or stolen cards may be replaced after showing identification. The replacement fee for lost or stolen cards is $1.50.

The iPod Nano was donated to the library, October 2009, by the Kalona Radio Shack.
The iPod is to be used for audiobooks downloaded from the library's WILBOR site.
Patrons must log in to WILBOR with their library card number to check-out desired materials and should download materials from the site onto their own computers. Materials can then be transferred onto the iPod.
WILBOR is available via the library's website 24/7.
All card holding patrons, who have a valid user agreement on file, may check-out an iPod.
An "iPod User Agreement" must be signed by an adult (18 yrs.+) or parent/guardian for any minor.
Before check-out, the patron must leave a $50.00 cash deposit. This deposit will be returned to the patron when it has been determined that the iPod and kit are intact and in good working order.
The iPod may be placed on reserve, though the date of the receipt is not guaranteed. Reserves will be held for 2 days and then removed if not claimed.
Players will circulate for 1 week (7 days) before accruing a fine of $1 per day past due. Maximum fine will be the replacement cost of the item, as determined by the library staff ($150 for the 8 gig iPod nano).
Prior to return, all material must be deleted so the player is ready for the next user. Failure to clear the iPod will result in a $1.00 fee.
The player must be returned to the circulation desk during the library's open hours in order for the kit to be inspected.
Placing the kit in the drop box is not allowed and will result in a $3.00 fine.
The library reserves the right to bill the patron for replacement costs if some or all components of the kit are damaged or missing.
Patrons may supply their own headphones or may purchase earbud headphones for $3.00 per pair at the library.

iPod and audiobook download instructions, library policy & WILBOR information
A. Purpose: The purpose of public access to the Internet is to further support the community's informational, learning, cultural, and recreational needs.
1. Responsibility of Users. The Internet is global in scope, with a highly diverse user population and information content. Some information content on the Internet may be offensive to some people and some content may be illegal, dated, or erroneous. Within the restraints set by the Library, it is always the responsibility of the user, therefore, to determine what materials are appropriate and suitable for his or her use.
2. Library Responsibility. The Kalona Public Library will provide the fullest possible access to the World Wide Web, except as limited by this policy. The Internet is an unregulated medium and the Kalona Public Library has no control over any part of the Internet beyond it's own homepages. Because the Library is not able to exercise the same selection criteria to Internet resources that it applies to materials held in its collections, the Library may provide hardware and software mechanisms ("filters") to restrict access to specific sources determined by Library staff to be inconsistent with its mission and collection developement policies. The Kalona Public Library can assume no responsibility for accuracy of any information accessed through the Internet, and cannot control or monitor all information accessed.
B. General Use: In accordance with other Kalona Public Library policies, use of the Internet is open to all patrons who possess a valid Kalona Public Library card and are in good standing with the library.
1. Patrons must leave their valid Kalona Public Library card at the circulation desk while using the library's computers.
2. The library may from time to time adopt regulations setting time limits on any of the workstations in order to maximize the efficient and effective use of the Internet and other Library information services. Presently, individual sessions may be limited to 30 minutes and will be enforced when others are waiting to use a computer. Computer use is limited to a maximum of 60 minutes per day.
3. Reservations may be made in advance. Users may reserve one time period per day. Reservations will be held for five minutes after the appointed time. Users may continue working on the Internet for an additional 30 minutes if no one is waiting to use a computer.
4. An Internet User Agreement is available on each patron computer.
a. Internet User Agreement for adults. The form will contain the following language:
(1) I have read the Kalona Public Library Internet Use Policy and agree to abide by the policy.
(2) I understand that the Library is not responsible for the content, accuracy or validity of any information found on the Internet. I understand that some information on the Internet may be controversial, offensive, and/or inappropriate in a library setting. I agree to take responsibility for my use of the Internet and respect the rights of other library users.
(3) I agree to avoid using the Internet for any illegal activity and/or for other activities such as harassment, distribution of unsolicited information, propagation of computer viruses, attempting to make unauthorized entry into other computers; and/or violating copyright laws.
(4) I agree to pay any repair or replacement costs for equipment or software damaged by myself or by minors for whom I am responsible.
(5) I understand that the Library is not responsible for any damage to personal media or software due to system malfunction or for any other reason.
(6) I understand that if I fail to abide by the Kalona Public Library policy and guidelines I may lose my privilege of computer use and Internet access at the Kalona Public Library.
b. Use by Minors
(1) Policy.
a. Parents may be concerned about the access to Internet information by their children. The Library affirms the right and responsibility of parents to supervise their children's use of library resources, in Internet services. The Library will make available to parents upon request such publicans as "Child Safety on the Informational Superhighway" as a guide to children using the Internet.
b. The Library also recognizes that parental control and guidance cannot always be provided with regard to unintended viewing of images displayed in public places; that data collected and analyzed by the Library evidences the potential for considerable and pervasive intended and unintended display of sexually explicit images at Internet terminals in the Kalona Public Library; that the use of the Library Internet terminals without implementation of a filtering policy will carry with it a significant danger of exposure of children to such sexually explicit images. The Library, therefore, has implemented hardware and software mechanisms ("filters") to restrict access to specific sexually explicit images, which hardware and software are designed to minimally intrude upon the rights of persons to exercise their constitutional protected right to disseminate and receive speech.
c. By making use of the Internet services of the Kalona Public Library patrons agree to abide by the provisions of this Internet Use Policy.
(2) Specific Rules for Minors
a. Material is available on the Internet that parents may feel is inappropriate for their children. Parents or guardians, not the library or its staff, are responsible for the information accessed by children.
b. Children under the age of 9 may not use library computers unless supervised by a parent or guardian.
c. Children between the ages of 9 and 14 must have a "Parental Permission Form" signed by a parent or guardian on file in order to use the library's internet terminals unsupervised. The form will contain the following agreement:
I grant permission for my child to use the Kalona Public Library's Internet service. I have read the Library's Internet Use Policy and discussed it with my child. Knowing that some materials on the Internet may be objectionable, I accept personal responsibility for the guidance of my child's Internet Use.
I further accept responsibility for and will not hold the City of Kalona and the Kalona Public Library responsible for any damages caused by my child's use of the Internet, whether such damage is to hardware or software, or by virtue of a claim by any party alleged to have been damaged from any material or comment posted by my child on the Internet.
d. Use of computers without internet access is not restricted for children over the age of 9 as long as they can provide a valid library card and are in good standing.
e. First-time Internet users between the ages of 15 and 18 must read and sign the Internet User Agreement, which will be kept on file. First-time users between the ages of 9 and 14 must have a parent or guardian sign a "Parental Permission Form for Internet Use by Minors" (see form), obtained at the circulation desk and kept on file. A parent or guardian must accompany at all times a patron under the age of 9 who wishes to use the computer. On each subsequent use, patrons must sign in at the desk and leave their library card. Sign-in records will be held for 30 days and then destroyed.
C. Assistance. The Library staff, on a day-to-day basis, will help with computers and Internet use as able and reasonable. However, staff members may not be familiar enough with a function to provide any help. Staff members are not available for extensive training except during scheduled training sessions.
D. Unacceptable Use: The Kalona Public Library reserves the right to restrict or terminate the Internet privileges of any individual not practicing responsible use of the Internet. Unacceptable use includes but is not limited to:
1. Use of the Internet for purposes other than informational, educational, recreational or for viewing, downloading or sending sexually graphic images.

3. Attempting to modify or gain access to restricted files, passwords, or data.
4. Downloading to the library computer hard drive, loading personal software or library-owned circulating CD-ROM software, or saving documents to the hard drive. Downloading may be done only to a flash drive or disc.

This includes adding, altering, or deleting files or configurations on library workstation hard drives or other library equipment, violating network integrity, using software from outside the library on library-owned equipment, or using a virus-infected disk on a library computer.
6. Disrespecting the privacy of other users.
E. Procedures:
1. Computers are available on a first-come, first-served basis to users, provided there are no advance reservations for that time slot. Children with permission waivers on file will be given priority for computers in the children's area between the hours of 3:30 and 6:00 PM. No more than two people may sit at one computer.

Library staff are not able to provide technical assistance and no guarantee can be made that you will be able to make a wireless connection.

Last of 3 Straight Yale Road Games
Related Links
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The Yale football team (3-3, 2-1 Ivy) needs a win this Saturday to remain in contention for the Ivy League prize. The Bulldogs, coming off a league road loss last week that knocked them from the unbeatens, head to Columbia (0-6, 0-3) for a noon kickoff at Wien Stadium that airs live on the YES Network (Chris Shearn, Ross Tucker, Jack Ford '72) and on WELI (960 AM) Radio.
Yale has won eight straight and holds a 67-18-2 lead over Columbia, its most commanding advantage over any league team. The Blue is 32-9-0 on the road and 35-9-2 at home against the Light Blue.
The numbers say there are similarities on one side and more separation on the other. Both defenses, allowing more than 391 yards per game, look to prove they are better than the stats show. Yale's offense has averaged better than 100 yards and nine points more than Columbia.
RB Alex Thomas (Ansonia, Conn.) rushed for 204 yards and scored a TD but it wasn't enough to get Yale a win at Penn in a 37-25 decision. The Bulldogs had a 20-10 advantage heading into the fourth quarter but gave up four scores to fall for the first time in Ivy play. WR Chris Smith (Midlothian, Va.) caught six passes for 148 yards and two TDs while accumulating a game-high 202 all-purpose yards. Injuries prevented both Thomas and Smith from finishing the game. QB Patrick Witt (Wylie, Texas) completed 15 of 29 throws for 258 yards a pair of scores. LB Will McHale (Greenwich, Conn.) had a game-best 11 solos and 13 overall tackles. The Quakers, who won their 18th straight league game, totaled 528 yards including 277 on the ground.
A week after nearly knocking off Penn at home, Columbia had a rough going on the road. Dartmouth RB Nick Schwieger rushed for 157 yards and three scores in a 37-0 win at Memorial Field. AJ Maddox led the Lions with six solo tackles.
Yale held off a second-half Columbia rally to win 31-28 last year at the Bowl. The Blue built a 31-7 lead in the first 30 minutes thanks to three touchdown passes from QB Patrick Witt, including the first two career TDs for WR Cameron Sandquist. The Yale defense forced three fumbles, picked off two passes, and came up with a big stop on Columbia's final drive of the day to deny the hard-charging Lions after they scored 21 unanswered points in the second half.
The Lions did not allow Yale to complete a pass in a 1954 game but still lost 13-7... Columbia blanked a Yale team in 1961 (11-0) that was coming off an undefeated campaign. It was the fourth and last shutout of the Bulldogs by the Lions... Columbia QB Marty Domres, a future NFL QB, threw for 326 yards in 1966 for the Lions in a losing (44-21) effort... Yale QB Pete Doherty '67 connected on a school-record five TD passes in 1966 (44-21 Yale win)... Yale and NFL great Dick Jauron '73 scampered 87 yards for the deciding score in a 28-14 win over Columbia in 1972... Ryan LoProto '02 scored on two interceptions, including one from 67 yards, as Yale won 41-0 in 2000.
The Yale football team had not recorded a safety since 2007 when Lafayette misfired a punt snap that ended up two points for the Blue. The Elis got a two-pointer for the second straight week when Penn took a knee in the end zone late in the fourth quarter. Yale didn't force either safety but still got credit for two-pointers on consecutive Saturdays.
Yale has sacked QBs eight times this fall, one more than opposing defenses have gotten to Patrick Witt. Senior Yale DT Jake Stoller (Shaker Heights, Ohio) leads the team with four and 33 lost yards. The only other teammate with more than one is senior DE Cliff Foreman (Washington, D.C.) with two.
Junior LB Will McHale had his busiest day as a Bulldog with 11 solos and 13 overall stops at Penn. He is fifth in the Ivy League with 9.2 tackles per game.
Penn and Harvard stand as the league unbeatens with the Ivy stretch run under way. Brown and Yale are hanging on with hopes of the Quakers and Crimson falling soon, while Princeton and Dartmouth look to avoid elimination from the title chase. Harvard rolled over Princeton 56-39 last week as Brown was beating Cornell 35-24.
Penn is at Brown (12:30) while Princeton hosts Cornell 30 minutes later… Harvard hosts Dartmouth in a 6 pm game Saturday.
Junior WR Chris Smith (Midlothian, Va.) has distinguished himself as one of the top receivers ever in Yale football. He is the only Eli to have three straight 100-yard games, while his 322 yards over the last two and 422 over the three are both Yale records. His four 100-yard games are the second most in the history of the program. Billy Brown '02 had all five of his in 2001, but Smith is the only Bulldog receiver to have a TD in every game he has gone triple digits. Last week at Penn, he had a game-high 202 all-purpose yards and while scoring twice on pass plays. His six catches last Saturday gave him 90 for his career, which is seventh at Yale. On Oct. 15 he earned the College Football Performance Awards National FCS Wide Receiver of the Week Honor with a career-high seven catches for 174 yards and one score. He also returned kickoffs for another 107 yards. He is the only Ivy player with four 100-yard receiving days this fall. Smith, the first player in Ivy history to run back a pair of kickoffs for TDs in the same game (last year at Brown, span of 2:23), ranks second in Yale career KOR yards with 1,355, which is 56 yards shy of Robert Carr '05. His 732 yards in 2010 are a single-season record. Smith is also the only Yale player with two career kickoff returns for TDs.
Smith's 2011 Numbers
111.4 ypg (1st Ivy, 5th FCS)
189.8 AP ypg (1st Ivy, 4th FCS)
5.2 rpg (3rd Ivy)
174 receiving yards vs. Lafayette (most in Ivy 2011)

Senior QB Patrick Witt (Wylie, Texas), a two-time Ivy League Offensive Player of the Week this season, is now Yale's career leader with 463 completions. He was a 2010 second-team All-Ivy selection who led the league in passing yards (2,216), yards/game (246.2), completions (212) and attempts (351) and was the only QB to complete more than 60% of his passes (60.4%). Witt, the largest starting signal caller in the Ivy League, was seventh in the FCS in completions/game (23.56) and 15th nationally in passing yards/game (246.22) last year. Elected to the team's Leadership Council, Witt became the first transfer (Nebraska) student at Yale to start immediately at QB since World War II (when transfers were common). He is also an outstanding student (3.91 GPA) who has written for the Yale Daily News, is a member of the Intercultural Affairs Council and has done some prison ministry work. Witt, Yale's candidate for National Football Foundation & Hall of Fame Scholar-Athlete honors and the Campbell Trophy, has been endorsed by his school as a 2011 Rhodes Scholar candidate and a Mitchell Scholarship candidate. He also won the Francis Gordon Brown Prize, one of the school's highest undergraduate accolades, awarded to the student in the junior class in Yale College who most closely approaches the standards of intellectual ability, high manhood, capacity for leadership and service to the University set by Francis Gordon Brown, who captained Yale Football's "Team of the Century" in 1900.
Witt's Yale Career Numbers
463 completions (1st)
785 attempts (2nd)
31 TDs (4th)
5,042 yards (2nd)
As expected, senior captain Jordan Haynes (Folsom, Calif.) has been all over the field this year and is third among Ivy players with 9.3 tackles per game. Last year he led (102) the Elis and was second among Ivy players in tackles from his linebacker position. The 2010 first-team All-Ivy and All-New England pick represented the West as a National Football Foundation High School Scholar-Athlete. The political science and international studies major is the first Yale captain from the Golden State since Thorne Shugart (Los Angeles) led the 1954 Bulldogs.
Senior WR Gio Christodoulou (Miami, Fla.) is Yale's career punt return yardage leader with 831, which is also top among active FCS players. He was the Oct. 10 Ivy League Special Teams Player of the Week after returning four punts for 106 yards in the win over Dartmouth. He currently leads the Ivies with a 14.1 average, while his 106 return yards vs. Dartmouth are the most for an Ivy player this fall. Christodoulou is in the mix of talented receivers getting snaps but only has two catches this fall after having 38 for a team-best 563 yards last fall. He came back to Yale this fall using a medical hardship waiver from 2009. He also has 23 kickoff returns for 553 yards (shy of 10th on career list).
Alex Thomas (Ansonia, Conn.), nicknamed "Train," became one of five players in the history of Yale football to run for more than 200 yards in a game. His career-high 204 (best day for a Yalie since Mike McLeod, 276 vs. Lehigh, 2007) yards on 30 runs against Penn was the first time a RB has run for more than 200 against the Quakers since 1997. It was almost the most yards by an Ivy back this season. Yale's active career rushing leader with 1,594 yards and seven 100-yard games, Thomas is also Yale's active career receiving leader (49) among the RBs. His 47-yard run at Cornell in 2010 was the longest run by a Bulldog last fall, while his 74-yard TD scamper vs. Dartmouth is the longest this season in the league. Thomas, a former Ansonia High School star, is the most prolific (8,279 yards, 114 TDs) runner in Connecticut High School history. The nickname stems from his "train" tattoo, a word based on scripture verses that refer to training both physically and spiritually.
Deon Randall (San Diego, Calif.) is listed as a RB on the Yale roster and a WR on the depth chart, but you could see him lining up at any skill spot. He is second on the team with 26 catches while his 297 yards are second best.
Senior FS Geoff Dunham (Dallas, Texas) picked off his third career pass last Saturday. Dunham, who wears the same number (11) and has the same body type as starting QB Patrick Witt, is third on the squad with 34 solos and 42 overall tackles. One of the largest DBs in the Ivy League at 6-foot-3, 223 pounds, he started every game last year and was third on the team with 31 solo tackles and 47 overall. His best day was 7-2-9 vs. Penn in 2010, and he scored the first TD of his football career on a fumble return against Princeton. He also had 7-2-9 against Cornell this fall. A biomedical engineering major, Dunham interned in cancer research at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in 2007 and 2008 and spent some of a summer at Scripps Research Institute in Jupiter, Fla., doing the same thing. He stayed on the Yale campus last summer to take an organic chemistry class.
DE Austin Pulsipher (Temecula, Calif.) has accomplished more than the average college senior. After playing on the 2006 JV team, he spent two full years (2007, 2008) in greater Taipei, Taiwan on a Mormon mission where he became fluent in Mandarin Chinese and served in many leadership roles. Pulsipher, whose father played football at BYU, organized and taught a drug rehabilitation program while managing the finances of over 150 missionaries. He is also the only married member of the Yale football team; he arrived a few days late for football this summer because of the wedding (Aug. 13th in Newport Beach, Calif.). Sebastian Swett '09 was one of the groomsmen and the honeymoon was in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Pulsipher, 23, the oldest player on the roster, is looking for his second varsity letter this fall. He is the only Bulldog with an Ivy League Championship (2006) ring.
The left side of the offensive line includes freshman T Ben Carbery (Oak Park, Ill., 6-5, 275) and G Colin Kruger (Sarasota, Fla., 6-3, 300). G Gabe Fernandez (Honolulu, HI, 6-0, 273) and T Roy Collins (Carbondale, Ill., 6-5, 260) are on the right. John Oppenheimer (Menlo Park, Calif., 6-0, 265) played DT as a freshman last fall before switching to center in the spring.
They don't want their names called on the PA system on game days, but that doesn't mean they don't deserve recognition. Here are some notes about Yale's starting five offensive trench guys. LG Colin Kruger, who might be the strongest guy on the team, had had offers to play at other FCS schools including Stanford… RG Gabe Fernandez, a mechanical engineering major who transferred from UCLA after his first year, was a very good soccer player in high school. His senior year's soccer team won the DII state title before he gained 30 to 40 pounds for football. His brother played offensive guard at Harvard… C John Oppenheimer, who moved over from the defense last spring, played both sides of the line in high school. His father, Peter Oppenheimer, is Apple's senior vice president and Chief Financial Officer… RT Roy Collins, who was a prep star at Choate Rosemary Hall, came to Yale as a TE. He was in the New Haven chapter of the National Football Foundation Hall of Fame. His first cousin, Gerome Sapp, played at Notre Dame and then with the Colts and the Ravens (2003-2007). His mother's cousin, Burgess Owens, played at the University of Miami and with the Jets and Raiders (1973-1982)… LT Ben Carbery captained his high school's scholastic bowl team at the national academic quiz tournament.
Junior PK Philippe Panico (pronounced pa-NEE-ko) connected on a 35-yard FG last week and booted one kickoff through the end zone for a touch back. He is 5-for-8 on field goals, including a career-long, 39-yarder against the Hoyas and the Big Green, and is 16-for-20 on PATs. The Boston native connected on 17 of 18 PATs and six of 14 field goals in his first year of varsity kicking in 2010. His three-pointer with no time left at Dartmouth was the game-winner, while his 36-yard boot in the fourth quarter at Brown gave the Elis a three-point win. Panico, who had a 47-yard FG in the 2011 pre-season scrimmage, also swings a golf club well, playing for the Yale team as a freshman and leading his foursome to the lowest score at Yale Football Association Golf Outing in August. He had his photo taken with 2011 U.S. Open Champion Rory Mcllroy when the Yale team was at this year's New Haven Open tennis tournament.
Senior DT Reed Spiller, nicknamed "Speed Riller" because he so fast for a 290-pounder, works with a program called Ready, Set, Launch, which helps underprivileged kids and guides them on the college application process… Alex Thomas (Ansonia, Conn.) and Ansonia native John Coughlin (Yale Football Office) have visited the Boys and Girls Club of the Lower Naugatuck Valley's Joel E. Smilow Clubhouse in Ansonia to help kids learn the importance of eating healthy and staying fit. They have also visited schools in the valley... Senior CB Drew Baldwin (Alexandria, Va.), co-chair of the Yale Black Men's Union Community Outreach Committee, is in his fourth year of outreach work. Baldwin is responsible for creating the lesson plans and the calendar of events, working to promote personal growth and development through educational activities. Classmate Jordan Haynes works closely with Baldwin on the project… Senior LB Nick Schneider (Cincinnati, OH) was one of seven friends at Yale's Saybrook College who founded ReadySetLaunch, a non-profit consulting organization that provides one-on-one college tutoring for underprivileged students. Schneider serves as director of external relations and manages relationships with potential donors in the community. His first year, he helped raise $50,000 in the Chase Community Giving Challenge.
Here are the awards handed out to Yale players this fall:
Ivy League Offensive Player of Week
9/17 QB Patrick Witt (co)
9/24 QB Patrick Witt
9/17 QB Patrick Witt
9/24 QB Patrick Witt
10/8 RB Alex Thomas, DT Jake Stoller, PR Gio Christodoulou

Seven freshmen have seen action this season. P Kyle Cazzetta (Slate Hill, N.Y.), OL Ben Carberry (Oak Park, Ill.) and William Chism (Ridgeland, Mississippi), DE EJ Conway (Luthersville, Md.), DB Nick LaTesta (Wood Ridge, N.J.), RB Wynston Bouknight (Upper Marlboro, Md.) and LB Tyler Manu (Meridian, Idaho). Thirty-one members of Yale's Class of 2015 joined the Bulldogs this summer. The newcomers, representing 15 different states, include 15 defensive players, 16 on offense and a number who have played on both sides during their high school careers. The offensive linemen and defensive backs (6 each) outnumber any other position recruited in this class. The Class of 2015 is spread evenly across the U.S. with California (4) having the most. Connecticut has three, which does not include the Elis who attended Choate Rosemary Hall after growing up outside the Nutmeg State.
Yale finished 1-2 against Patriot League opponents this fall, beating Georgetown (6-2) and falling at Lehigh (6-1) and Lafayette (3-4). Those three teams are a combined 15-7 this fall.
There are 18 seniors listed among the players on the offense/defense on the two-deep depth chart. Thirteen juniors and sophomores are included with just a pair of newcomers. This does not include special teams.
After three straight weeks on the road, the Elis are back at the Bowl to host a hot Brown squad in a noon game that airs live on the YES Network.
Yale is 0-3 on the road and has not gone winless in a fall since the 1986 team went 0-4… Patrick Witt ranks third in Ivies with 229 passing yards per game… Chris Smith tops league players with 7.2 points per game… Yale center John Oppenheimer (Menlo Park, Calif.) is still tied for the Ivy lead with two fumble recoveries, both of which happened after Yale passes were intercepted on consecutive weeks… Yale's 25.8 points per game are tied for second in the league.
Two former Bulldogs are coaching in the NFL this season. Dick Jauron, who has spent 33 years in the NFL, playing and coaching, is the new defensive coordinator for the Cleveland Browns (2-3). Last year he coached the Philadelphia Eagles' defensive backs. Jauron was the 2001 AP Coach of the Year with the Chicago Bears and his most recent head coaching gig was at Buffalo. Pat Graham '01, a former Yale tight end and defensive lineman, is an assistant coach for the 5-1 New England Patriots. Graham, a Waterbury, Conn., native, was a member of Yale's 1999 Ivy title team.
For the 14th consecutive season, all 10 Yale Football games can be heard live on New Haven's News/Talk 960 WELI-AM and free online at 960WELI.com. Ron Vaccaro '04 (play-by-play) and Carm Cozza (color) have the call, which can be heard on AM radio throughout Connecticut and across Long Island Sound, for their seventh season together. WELI's broadcasts can now also be accessed for free via the "iheartradio" application available on most "smart phones". It can be downloaded either by typing www.iheartradio.com into your phone's browser or by typing "iheartradio" in the app search field on your phone and is free of charge.
Former Yale TE Alex Faherty '05 joins Vaccaro and Cozza in the radio booth this Saturday to help commentate on the third quarter of the Yale-Columbia game.
There was a time not too long ago that you could find a half dozen Yale football players who were also varsity baseball players. There might also be six competing in track & field, a few playing lacrosse and a guy or two rowing for the heavyweight program. For many reasons, those days are long gone. The current Yale football roster includes just one player, freshman L.J. Hunt (Stratford, Conn.), who is on another team roster. Hunt, a DB who has seen JV action this fall, was the captain of the St. Josephs lacrosse team and will play for Eli head coach Andy Shay.
Dartmouth owns the most Ivy League titles since league play officially began in 1956. Yale trails Penn by one for second, one championship in front of Harvard.
No Team Last Title
17 Dartmouth 1996
15 Penn 2010
14 Yale 2006
13 Harvard 2008
9 Princeton 2006
4 Brown 2008
3 Cornell 1990
1 Columbia 1961
Tom Williams, the Joel E. Smilow '54 Head Coach of Yale Football, and some of his players are at the world famous Mory's (306 York Street) every Tuesday (Sept. 13 through Nov. 15) at 2 p.m. for the Dick Galiette Yale Football Press Conference. This event is limited to media only. Please contact Yale Sports Publicity Director Steve Conn (firstname.lastname@example.com) if you would like to attend.
All five home games this season are video streamed (pay per view) on yalebulldogs.com through Yale's All Access with Ron Vaccaro and Carm Cozza providing the call.
The Bulldogs, off on Mondays, are on the field at 7:30 a.m. (until approx. 9:30) Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday behind the baseball stadium. Fridays are walk-through days either at Yale Bowl or on the road and times vary. Players and coaches are available for interviews with working media following the practice if there are no class conflicts. All schedules are subject to change.
Yale on YES includes three broadcasts this fall on the YES Network. This week's initial broadcast re-airs Saturday night at 7:00, Sunday at 11 p.m. and next Tuesday at 6 a.m. The other Yale on YES games are Nov. 5 (Brown at Yale) and Nov. 12 (Yale at Princeton). All games begin at 12:05 ET. This is the fourth straight fall the Bulldogs appear on the network home for New York Yankees baseball. YES broadcaster Chris Shearn handles the play-by-play, with color commentary coming from former Ivy League and National Football League lineman Ross Tucker and former Yale defensive back Jack Ford '72, a well-known author and TV personality.
Yale football airs live on VERSUS three times this fall, the second of which is this Saturday (Cornell on Sept. 24 was first). Yale Bowl on Nov. 19 is the setting for the final VERSUS telecast and the 128th edition of The Game. All three contests are noon kickoffs. Randy Moss, a new member of NBC's award-winning horse racing coverage team and contributor to NFL Network, serves as the play-by-play announcer for all VERSUS Ivy League games and is joined in the booth by Ross Tucker as lead analyst.
The annual survey of Bulldogs produced the anticipated results; Yale is a team full of leaders who produced as much off the field as they did on it. Here is the 201 breakdown.
77 players were captains of their high school football team
52 players were captains of another sport in high school
62 players were a national honors society member
8 players were class president at their high school
9 players were student body president at their high school
9 players were class valedictorian at their high school
4 players were class salutatorian at their high school
The following Yalies have distinguished themselves according to a vote by their teammates.
DB Josh Grizzard (Sr, Zebulon, N.C.)… most humorous
DB Geoff Dunham (Sr, Dallas, Texas)… most intelligent
DL Jake Stoller (Sr, Shaker Heights, OH)… most vocal leader (not captain)
DL Pat Moran (Sr, Alexandria, Va.)… most likely to be U.S. President
RB Alex Thomas (Sr, Ansonia, Conn.)… strongest player (pound-for-pound)
DB Drew Baldwin (Sr, Alexandria, Va.)… most involved in community outreach
"Hawaiian Fridays" are the rule in the Yale Football Office. Show up without a Hawaiian shirt and you risk a fine. Three coaches (Tom Williams, Ikaika Malloe, Doug Semones) have worked in high school, college or pro football on the island while three players, Gabe Fernandez (Honolulu), Kolu Buck (Kaneole) and Jake Semones (Haleiwa), grew up there.
The press box has a taste of New Haven with Yorkside Pizza & Restaurant serving slices, pasta and salad on home Saturdays. Rather than interrupting your work with a lunch at halftime, the food is now served on its arrival before kickoff.
Soon, everyone coming to the Bowl will know Yale's primary (Bulldogs) nickname. A three-and-a half foot tall, 600-pound bronze statue of Handsome Dan will be placed outside in the Jensen Plaza and serve as the top spot to have photos taken around the famous venue. A slightly smaller bronze dog, which first appeared in 2010 in the Kenney Center where Yale players could touch it before heading to the field, now sits in the lobby of Payne Whitney Gym.
Yale was the first football team of any type to reach 800 wins when it beat Dayton 42-6 on Sept. 16, 2000. It wasn't hard for Michigan (890) to catch up playing three or four games more than Yale (866) each season.
Nate Lawrie '04 (49ers), Shane Bannon '11 (Chiefs), Tom McCarthy '11 (Falcons) and Chris Blohm '11 (49ers) were in NFL camps this summer. All but Blohm saw action in exhibition games. Bannon, an HB who was drafted by Kansas City in the seventh round and is currently on the taxi squad, had the first and final carry of the opening pre-season contest in August. McCarthy, a free agent DL in the Atlanta Falcons camp, made two tackles in a pre-season game. Lawrie, a TE who has NFL experience but played in the UFL the last two years, signed with the 49ers in August and made a catch in their last exhibition game.
Jesse Reising '11, a starting LB for Yale last fall who was seriously injured at Harvard in the 2010 season finale, is still recovering from a collision with Crimson TB Gino Gordon that left the Bulldog with arm nerve damage. Reising's U.S. Marine Corps career is on hold, but the licensed pilot is still serving his country. He is currently in Afghanistan working as a contractor while he plans a non-profit organization with Yale classmate Nick Rugoff. "Operation Opportunity" will provide personalized prepatory services for the children of fallen service members. "It's the means by which I hope to redirect the outpouring of support I have gotten since my injury towards the service members who are now serving in my place. I have been thinking, since all the e-mails and all the support started pouring in, how could I harness this support for some greater good."
Yale, which last played in the Golden State in 2005 at the University of San Diego, has another trip to California planned. On Oct. 5, 2013, the Bulldogs will play against Cal Poly at San Luis Obispo. The only two games the Blue has played on the West Coast were against USD.
The Ivy League Office has a weekly online radio show, "Inside Ivy League Football," which takes an in-depth look at the action and the news and notes surrounding Ivy football. The 10-episode show airs Wednesdays at 7 p.m. on BlogTalkRadio.com (blogtalkradio.com/insideivyleaguefootball). It's available on-demand via BlogTalkRadio and IvyLeagueSports.com.

Today we are going to focus on creating a space where you can sit and just be.
Your space does not have to be anything fancy, nor does it need to be in a room all its own. It can be as simple as a pillow on the floor in the corner of the living room.
1) Have a look around your home – take the time to go into each room and just feel . What room seems to be calling you? This is the area where you will create 'your' space.
2) You will need something comfortable to sit on. An easy chair or even just a pillow.
3) Do you like candles? Flowers? Do you have a favorite painting or picture? Do you have a favorite ornament from a time since past that means a lot to you? Arrange these items in your space – on a table or shelf.
Keep it simple to start with. Over time this space will change along with you. Don't stress over perfection – just give yourself permission to be as creative as you need to be.
You will no doubt get questions from your partner or kids about what you are doing. Be as honest as you want to with them – tell them you need a time out spot, and when you are in there it means you are in time out and they are not to bother you. Tell them the corner just needed something. Tell them whatever you want – just be aware you will probably get questions so be prepared with an answer.
If you are not comfortable creating a full space, then go with a shelf in one of the rooms you spend a lot of time in. A Shelf next to the TV perhaps, a side table in your bedroom, a window ledge. These areas can all become 'your' space that no one needs to know the reasoning behind. You can work it so that it looks like you are watching TV or looking out the window, when in fact you are visiting 'your' space. No one will know, but you. This is perfectly ok.
Give yourself permission!

No, The RIAA Is Not Asking For $72 Trillion From Limewire (Bad Reporters, Bad)

"Plaintiffs are suggesting an award that is more money than the entire music recording industry has made since Edison's invention of the phonograph in 1877," Wood wrote, citing a Lime Group court filing referring to the inventor Thomas Edison. She called this an "absurd result."While she did say that such an argument would likely lead to "billions" in damages, she also mentioned that it could possibly reach trillions in damages, but I don't believe she ever mentioned $72 trillion. Someone, however, did a back of the envelope calculation based on downloads and tossed out that $72 trillion number, and it caught on widely... again, way back in March of 2011. The first place I can find (though it may have come from somewhere else) to quote such a massive number was actually a Law.com article that came out right before the ruling was made. And it says $75 trillion.
Anyway, a year ago, in May of 2011, Limewire famously (or so we thought) settled the case for $105 million. That case is basically over.
And yet, for reasons that are beyond me, someone has revived the original story and lots and lots of other sites -- including plenty with real reporters who should know better -- are repeating it as fact, even to the point some are claiming that this shows the RIAA "wasn't satisfied" with the $105 million settlement. Most reports are linking back to NME as originating it, and the NME report links back to one of the many posts from March of 2011, from Computerworld, so you might think that the (nameless) NME reporter misread the date.
However, in looking around, two days before NME did its bogus report, it looks like Stuff.co.nz posted a similar story also linking to that same ComputerWorld story. Amusingly, the very first comment on that Stuff piece points out that link is to a story from 2011. And yet, Stuff has still not updated its story or posted a correction. Meanwhile, it looks like NME's (still nameless) reporter, simply copied the story from Stuff without crediting Stuff in the first place... meaning that many people are blaming NME for reviving the story, when really, NME just sucks at crediting their sources (and fact checking).
Either way, tons of other sites picked up on the story, including CBS News, who has since pulled it down entirely and just has a 404 page where it was before.
Then there are the folks at "Business Insider," who still have the story up but appear to have appended a "note" at the bottom that says "This case was settled last May for the much smaller fee of $105 million." You'd think that this should have led them to (a) change the headline (b) put the note at the top (c) be a little more clear in correcting their error. Even The Onion fell for it, though they've since posted an update. Then there are folks like WebProNews, Spinner and ZeroPaid (who is normally so good on this stuff), all of whom should have known better.
Anyway: basically this story is bogus. Well over a year ago, the RIAA made a ridiculous attempt to seek damages on every download. No specific amount was named, and no matter how you do your math, that $72 trillion number never made any sense at all. It was just a reporter looking for a good headline. Either way, the judge totally rejected that plan 15 months ago, and the entire case settled a year ago.
Nothing to see here folks, other than an internet pile-on. Move along now...

Outdoor Program
Many Marlboro students find that they need to balance their academic challenges with physical ones, and also that Vermont is a fabulous place to stay active in the outdoors. The Outdoor Program (O.P.) follows the seasons with regular programs including hiking, climbing, caving, backpacking, canoeing, and whitewater outings. Thirteen+ miles of trails crisscross the 360-acre campus for excellent mountain biking, hiking, and snowshoeing or cross-country skiing when the snow flies. The nearby Green Mountain National Forest offers students a natural playground, with hiking trails, rivers, lakes, and ski resorts within 30 minutes of campus. Two-and-half hours away lie the outdoor playgrounds of the White Mountains, Adirondacks, Lake Champlain and the Atlantic Coast.
In addition to short local trips, the Marlboro O.P. usually makes one or two major expeditions each school year, with destinations and activities based on student interests. Past trips have included canoeing and rock climbing along the Rio Grande, paddling through the Everglades, winter explorations of Yellowstone National Park, and trips to Quebec, Jamaica, and Costa Rica that combined adventure events with community service projects and academic research.

Borrowing Gear from the OP The Indoor Climbing Wall
Athletic activities at Marlboro are organized by the Student Activities and Recreation Program, and range from organized sports to relatively untidy but thoroughly enjoyable events. Soccer is the most organized, and each fall the Marlboro team competes with other nearby colleges to the avid delight of other community members. Basketball, ultimate Frisbee, softball, and hockey, and four-square have all have had their years, depending on the level of interest, and you can usually count on a pick-up game against the staff and faculty at some point in the year. Perhaps the favorite, and bordering on chaotic, sports event is the annual broomball tournament, when teams square on a frozen campus pond to vie for the coveted "golden broom." Other athletic activities include yoga, martial arts, and working out on the indoor climbing wall.

Sharjah: Decimated in their most recent IPL match, there is some good news for the beleaguered Delhi Daredevils with their injured English skipper Kevin Pietersen saying that he expects to be fit for the team`s next game in Dubai.
"I don`t know if they are missing me. This is a long tournament; we`ve played three matches and won one…As for me, I`m going to hopefully be back in the next game," Pietersen, who had been nursing a finger injury, told the IPL`s official website.
Delhi will take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in their next match on April 25.
"I have trained a couple of days, but it hasn`t been an ideal start going into this tournament. I had good practice for a couple of weeks in London, but then hurt myself and have had three weeks off," the attacking batsman said.
Delhi were quite literally thrashed by Chennai Super Kings last night, losing by 93 runs in a lopsided game.
Even though he has not been able to play, Pietersen said he has tried to keep the team motivated in the dugout.
"It`s imperative for me to play a significant role as a senior figure in the dressing room. You need to reach out to the players and help them out. Yes, I have handed the reigns of the team to DK (Dinesh Karthik) but I`ve also got to help him.
"We`re all a part of the senior group in the squad and the onus is on us to look after each other. The young guys need guidance from us and we too need to know how they want to go about things," he said.
Asked if he has been playing a role in the on-field decision-making as well, Pietersen said,
"Not really, that`s all DK. We can only talk about what might happen out there and put some ideas forward. When the team crosses the rope, it`s DK who takes it all out there and runs the show as he seems fit for the team."
Pietersen also spoke about his experience of working under coach Gary Kirsten.
"Gary is people`s person. He`s fantastic to be around. He`s one of those guys with whom you want to hang around; he`s infectious. He`s got such a calming influence, it doesn`t matter whether you win or lose, you get the same positive vibes from him.
"I think that`s really important for the players and especially for the youngsters. You don`t want a coach who gets jittery and goes up, down and all over the place," said the batsman.
On his expectations from the team, Pietersen said he wants the players to play their best without feeling under pressure.
"I want all the guys in the team to know that there is no pressure. I want all the players to relax and play to the best of their ability. Another important thing for me as a leader is that the guys train well. According to me, the training should be so thorough and intense that the game-day becomes easier," he said.
"If you prepare well, you cannot ask for anything more off yourself; there will be no pressure.
If you go into the game knowing that you`ve done all the correct things off the field, who are we to complain about what happens on the field?" he added.

I am Irish, and so this legacy comes to me.
I am Irish, and so this legacy comes to me.
I'm sorry your stress in a difficult situation was exacerbated by a nominally professional health provider. Stereotypes serve an us-and-the dichotomy where the "us" is better. I can't say I've heard this in Australia but the stereotypes have been replaced by other ethnic groups. Each new migration wave becomes the "other".ReplyDelete
Hello Cassmob,
As always, thank you for your comments. I really appreciate receiving them.
It's so true what you've said. You have taken me back to my days in graduate school and studying the work of Edward Said and Michel Foucault, among others, and the idea 'Othering' as the way in which a dominant group or culture perceives an increase in their own power by defining another group as lesser than, as 'the other'.
Despite having this knowledge under my belt, I always find it interesting to notice how easily 'we', i.e. members of society, fall into this sort of habit of 'othering' on an almost subconscious level. To many of us, such as the friend I mention in this piece, or the radiologist, it comes sort of naturally. In these instances I don't think either one of them meant to be deliberately hurtful, instead it is as though the stereotype is 'inside of their thinking' without them even thinking about it.
Cheers to you,
Wow, you do it to me every time. You post the light and the dark, the serious and not so serious. Great post and really worth thinking about, but don't be surprised if someone tells you to lighten up.ReplyDelete
Hi Charlotte,
Thanks for your comments; they are much appreciated.
When I read your comments I smiled (in a good way) because 'lighten up' is a phrase that drives me crazy, and it's one I hear all the time from people who think I am too serious about many matters, so I found it funny that you would mention that I might hear it in response to this post.
I'd never tell you to lighten up, but I think some Irish are not bothered by this kind of thing. I like what you say about stereotypes being inside of us without us really thinking about it. How many of us can honestly say we've never laughed at an ethnic joke?ReplyDelete
Hi Ashling,
Thanks for your comments; they are much appreciated.
Your point about people laughing at ethnic jokes is a great example of people buying into stereotypes without really thinking about them.
Wonderful post! It packed a punch. Growing up I often compared the family stories and experiences of my Rusyn immigrant grandparents with those of my best friend, whose Mexican grandparents crossed the Rio Grande (illegally) and ended up in the Los Angeles barrios. Different foods, different looks, but so very many similarities - especially their prejudices against "others" in America. So far down in the socio-economic pecking order that they seemed to need find an "other" group further down as a foil.
That said, there are cultural traits within ethnicities - as you alluded to in your initial comment about being Irish. You didn't say "in my family we don't discuss these things". Certainly her comment was thoughtless, and one could easily be offended. But if one is going to speak in generalities, others (and yes, a deliberate choice of words) may respond in kind.
I do hope all is well on the health front.
Hi Susan,
As always, thank you for your comments; they are much appreciated.
While generalities are a common feature of communication, I think a distinction needs to be drawn between benign generalizations and negative stereotypes. Generalizations can describe without being offensive, but negative stereotypes rarely describe and are inherently offensive.
Thank You to each one of you for sharing in this 'conversation'. One of the things I like most about platforms such as this one is the ability to share perspectives on a matter. I debated about whether or not to share this post, and decided to do so because I truly believe that discussion leads to understanding.
I am sending each one of you a hug and a thank you for offering comments where many have just avoided engaging the subject.
Cheers to each of you,
You are welcome Jennifer and personally I think some subjects need serious reflection. Thank you for giving us this opportunity. CassmobReplyDelete
I'm late to the "party" but think I'll jump in anyhow. Your post elicited two divergent thoughts as I read it. I recognized that the two main ethnic groups I am researching--Irish and Polish--have both often been the brunt of ethnic slurs, and while I've not previously dwelt on that commonality, see that those two people groups also share a heritage of being downtrodden by other groups seeking ascendancy. Why else would statements like yours about the heritage's sterling examples of brilliant thinkers be buried in a very opposite public perception of the group as a whole?
And yet, I also must acknowledge that the very reason I am currently blogging is to catalog the letters and family history of an average Irishman whose life succumbed to the tragedy of alcoholism. The sum of it all is that, as you so effectively illustrated it, there is a wide gamut of human behaviors embedded within each people group--and yet, we must not take the actions of one as representative of the whole. A simple concept, yet one so complex to unfold in our everyday actions.
That thought aside...my prayers for your health and well being!
Hello Jacqi,
As alway, I very much appreciate receiving your comments anytime. Thank you for your thoughtful and insightful comments on this topic.
Cheers to you,
