BOISE — The Boise State football teams two best offensive playmakers need to adjust their style, coach Chris Petersen said Monday.
The Broncos have lost seven fumbles in eight games this season, including three last week at BYU. Sophomore tailback Jay Ajayi (three) and sophomore wide receiver Shane Williams-Rhodes (one) have accounted for more than half of the lost fumbles.
The others belong to wide receiver Geraldo Boldewijn, and quarterbacks Joe Southwick and Grant Hedrick (one each).
Ajayi (team-high 917 rushing yards, 12 TDs) tends to fight multiple tacklers at the end of his runs. Williams-Rhodes (team-high 55 catches) tries to slither between tacklers.
I dont think they should be fighting for extra yards, Petersen said. They (should) hit creases and go forward and try to fall forward. I dont think guys should be dancing and pulling and spinning because bad things are going to happen. You watch Shane, who is a heck of a playmaker. Hes starting and stopping and looking great, but he gets very few extra yards.
It was just that type of play on which Williams-Rhodes fumbled at BYU. He already secured a first down near midfield when he chose to take on a couple defenders rather than step out of bounds.
The ball came out, the Cougars recovered, and moments later a 17-3 deficit became 24-3. The Broncos never got closer than 14 points the rest of the way.
Petersen and Williams-Rhodes said the Broncos need to take their turnover circuit in practice more seriously. Those are drills that emphasize ball security and forcing fumbles.
Because we do it so much, we relax, we get complacent, Williams-Rhodes said after the game. On Monday, were definitely going to emphasize it.
Hedrick's play "solid"
Petersen said backup quarterback Grant Hedrick, who made his first start last week at BYU, needs to play better.
He called Hedricks play OK solid.
Like we always say, we need better than solid at the quarterback position, Petersen said. We need darn good. It was his first road game. Hell continue to take steps.
Hedrick was 25-of-42 for 232 yards with a touchdown and an interception. He rushed nine times for 24 yards and a TD.
He threw a nice deep ball, Petersen said. He made some good decisions, checked the ball down. The one interception was not a good one. Theres never a good one, but that was all on him. But then you need your quarterback to make some really good throws and stick it on guys. When he does that, our offense will play at a high level.
Starting quarterback Joe Southwick had ankle surgery last week. Petersen said the surgery did not change the expectations that Southwick could return sometime late in the regular season. Southwick likely wont travel again this week, Petersen said, to make sure he heals.
No controversy on targeting call
Petersen agreed with the targeting call on Boise State safety Dillon Lukehart. Lukeharts shoulder hit wide receiver Cody Hoffman in the head. Lukehart was ejected and, since the foul occurred in the second half, he must sit out the first half this week at Colorado State.
When you get involved with the guys head, going over the middle, no matter how it is, theyre going to call targeting, Petersen said.
Averill moves up
Redshirt freshman Travis Averill replaced Steven Baggett early on and played most of the BYU game at right tackle. Averill is listed as a starter for the first time this week.
Averill is expected to play center or guard in the future, where he was practicing before injuries caught up to the Broncos, but hes workable at tackle.
Hes pretty sharp and battles hard, Petersen said.
The Broncos are without starter Rees Odhiambo (week-to-week) and backup Jake Broyles (out for the year) at right tackle.
In other injury news, wide receiver Kirby Moore (foot) ran Monday, and linebacker Jonathan Brown (knee) is nearing his return.

Comments about Jos. A. Bank Executive Spread Collar Fineline Dress Shirt:
This is one of the best shirts I have ever purchased. It has a smooth feel that you wouldn't expect from what is seen. Finished product looks very well. Amazing end product and quality control because the threading is straight and finely done. The shirts are a work of art. Material fits very nice and wears well.Buttons fasten well but don't get undressed in a hurry. It will take some getting used to unfastening the buttons.. There's enough thread to prevent it from loosening quickly.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

"By agreement with the City, Judge Harold Baer of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York has recently entered a judgment against the City of New York in the amount of $25,001 to Occupy Wall Street protester Sade Adona for injuries she sustained in a demonstration that took place on October 26, 2011. In her Complaint in the case, Ms. Adona alleged that members of the NYPD falsely arrested her during that protest and unconstitutionally used excessive force in her arrest. In the case, the City also agreed to a judgment of attorneys' fees of $24,000 for the Hofstra Law Clinic and $11,000 to Gideon Oliver."
Like so many of their peers, Hofstra Law students took a keen interest in the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) demonstrations. Through a special clinic developed by Professor Stefan Krieger, a group of committed students applied their legal expertise to assist this OWS plaintiff. Faculty in the Criminal Law, Youth Advocacy, Community and Economic Development, and Mediation clinics joined in the supervision of the students and shared their unique expertise on the different issues raised by OWS.
"The OWS Clinic's victory proves that when, as legal educators, we provide experiential-learning opportunities in areas they are passionate about, law students can effect positive change in the world around them," said Krieger.
Other recently established Hofstra Law clinics include the Hurricane Sandy Recovery Clinic and the Veterans Advocacy Clinic.
"My fellow law student Jenelle Devits '13 and I had been fired up about OWS since its inception in September of 2011, and I thought this project would be a great way to combine my growing legal knowledge with my interest in the rights of the OWS protestors," said Judith Massis-Sanchez '13.
The students in the OWS Clinic reviewed the case, drafted documents and conducted research — which included watching the many videos posted on YouTube that showed their client to help identify her alleged attackers — sitting down with professors and spending time speaking with the client. They also negotiated with the opposing counsel and argued the case at a pretrial conference with Judge Baer.
"The clinic gave us confidence that we know how to investigate and file a complaint," said Devits. "It was eye-opening in seeing how slowly the judicial process goes and how doing this without a legal background would be nearly impossible. I can't imagine someone without counsel not being intimidated."
The OWS Clinic has already started on its next case.

Dear Editor,
There is a teacher at Yosemite High School that is in the process of having a sex change. This teacher has informed the school district that he will return after the Easter break transformed from his former male self into a woman and is requiring to be addressed as such.
This person has requested that the YHS students, YHS parents, YHS administration and colleagues accept this.
Are you shocked? I hope so.
I would like to pose a question to this gentleman. Why is it that you need to take hormones in order to make the physical changes you have chosen to make? Really, must we accept this?
It seems to me that the contract signed by you in order to teach at YHS was signed by a man. This man, you claim no longer exists. It stands to reason then, that your choice has proven to be a deal breaker because YHS did not hire a woman. In my opinion if you want to retain your job at YHS, then be the man who was hired, or leave to pursue your new life.
People of the community, the point of this letter is to reveal the challenge this community is now facing and in turn, to challenge the community to become a voice against this unacceptable situation. Are we willing to fall prey to grey area thinking, like live and let live, or who are we to judge? I see this as an assault on the minds and morals of our children. It blurs the lines of what is right and wrong.
I challenge the adults of this community to take a stand for our children, showing them that there is a time not to accept the unacceptable, rather to identify a wrong and stand firm against ever accepting it as a right.
Don't let this challenge fall solely on the shoulders of the YHS administration. Let your voice be heard.
Kathi Bales, Oakhurst

On March 19, 209 students from eight of the local high schools sat down in an auditorium to take an hour long multiple choice test, and this was no ordinary one by any means. It was the 10 annual Kent State University – Ashtabula Math Day test. The exam featured 25 challenging pre-calculus, geometry, trigonometry and algebra questions.
After taking the test, the students went to the gymnasium to socialize and have lunch, courtesy of KSU-A. This was followed by small group tours of the new Morrison Science and Medical Facility, which featured new state of the art equipment, including a human patient simulator that could replicate almost any human medical emergency. The students then returned to the auditorium where they listened to three speakers talk about education and mathematics. The award presentation marked the end of the event.
The top 10 individual placers were announced first, and each person received a T-shirt and certificate. Grand River Academy had seven of those students, three who placed in the top four. Dong Wook Lee, a senior from South Korea, answered 18 questions correctly and was awarded first place overall. Sam Zhang, a freshman from China, placed third, and Ben Sesso, a senior from Illinois placed fourth. Gregory Howard, from Geneva, placed second overall. The other four GRA students in the top 10 were Robby O'Guinn, Tong Zhou, Nick Wang and Tianming He. Alan Keep from Pymatuning Valley and Matt Osborne from Jefferson were also in the top 10.
Lee is no stranger to coming in first. His indoor soccer team recently won their league and he is the school's valedictorian.
"He is an excellent example of the kind of student Grand River Academy shapes," said Alicia Field, Math Department chair at GRA, who taught Lee pre-calculus when he was a sophomore. "I see his success as a validation of our math curriculum, our teaching and the work and learning done by our students."
The top three schools were then awarded; Grand River Academy received first place, Geneva received second and third place was awarded to Jefferson. Grand River Academy, which received first place last year, brought 20 students along to defend the trophy and title. Out of the 20, eight were on the winning team from last year, including O'Guinn and Lee, who both placed in the top 10 last year. Thirteen of the students are underclassmen, so it certainly appears that Grand River has an excellent shot at making it a "three-peat."
Calculus teacher and dean of students, Bill Thomas, was especially proud of the first-place finish.
"We may not be able to compete with these schools athletically because we're small, but we can compete with them academically, which is great," Thomas said.
"I was thrilled to learn that we received first place, and I was glad I could help contribute to the winning effort," said senior Jeremiah Jemente.
Grand River Academy also placed first in their academic competition on Cleveland News Channel 5's Academic Challenge. They beat out Strasburg-Franklin and Ledgemont.
"We had a great academic week," said O'Guinn, "First the Kent State University - Ashtabula Math Day title, then the win on Academic Challenge. It can't get any better than this."

Pymatuning Valley student may be petite, but she has big goals as she prepares mission trip to South Africa
Courage, selflessness, sacrifice: words to define a hero. They define a person who has a certain quality of mind that allows him or her to overcome adversity, a person who is willing to forfeit something valued for something of greater claim. A hero is someone noted for feats of courage and nobility of purpose. At Pymatuning Valley, Ami Turner fits that definition well.

Health experts met recently in Washington to make plans for the first national plan to fight the horrid disease.

Murrieta police handed out 21 tickets Wednesday to drivers who were allegedly caught texting or operating hand-held cellular devices.
The local crackdown was part of the "It's Not Worth It!" enforcement, being conducted statewide as part of April's month-long Distracted Driving Awareness campaign.
Last April, more than 57,000 tickets were written statewide for texting and hand-held cell use. There were nearly 450,000 convictions in 2012.
The current minimum ticket cost for the offense if $159, with subsequent tickets costing at least $279.
Murrieta police are scheduled to conduct the day-long enforcement again on Tuesday, April 16, according to a news release.
Murrieta officers join others from more than 200 other local law enforcement agencies plus the CHP this month in conducting these zero tolerance enforcements.
Last April, more than 57,000 tickets were written statewide for driving while texting or using their hand-held cellular devices, Gruwell pointed out; during 2012, nearly 450,000 were convicted of the offense.
"Distracted driving is a serious traffic safety concern that puts everyone on the road at risk," Murrieta police traffic Sgt. Jim Gruwell stated. "In recent years, hundreds have been killed and thousands seriously injured in California as a result of collisions that involved at least one driver who was distracted."
Drivers who use hand-held devices are four times as likely to get into crashes serious enough to injure themselves, Gruwell stated.
The greatest proportion of distraction-related fatal crashes is found among drivers who are younger than 20, studies show.
"In addition, studies show that texting while driving can delay a driver's reaction time just as severely as having a blood alcohol content of a legally drunk driver," Gruwell stated.
There is also reportedly little difference in the risks resulting from hands-free and hand-held cell phone conversations; both can result in "inattention blindness" which occurs when the brain isn't seeing what is clearly visible because the drivers' focus is on the phone conversation and not on the road, studies show.
"When over one third of your brain's functioning that should be on your driving moves over to cell phone talking, you can become a cell phone 'zombie,'" Gruwell stated.
Murrieta police encouraged to turn off their phones and/or put them out of reach while driving, include in their voicemail message that they can not answer while driving, and not to call or text anyone else whom they think might be driving.
"This effort is intended to educate our community about the dangers of cellphone use while driving," Gruwell stated. "We hope that once people see the statistics and realize the danger involved, they will change their driving habits to help protect themselves, their families, and others on the road."
Once tabulated, Murrieta police plan to report the final number of tickets that were issued locally during the awareness campaign.
An additional 22 drivers were cited Wednesday in Murrieta for other alleged infractions as a result of the stepped-up enforcement, according to Gruwell.

NBC Re-Runs Show that Tagged DeLay as Hero to White Supremacist Murderer
When the ballistics on the bullet which killed the black judge showed it was fired by the same rifle which was used to kill the white judge, New York City Police Department "Detective Alexandra Eames" suggested to her fellow detectives and an Assistant District Attorney: "Maybe we should put out an APB for somebody in a Tom DeLay T-shirt." Another detective then presented evidence the shooter came from the West, prompting Eames to point out: "Home of a lot of white supremacist groups."

With 2012 quickly approaching, now is the time to develop and maintain your web presence. An easy to use, well designed website which showcases information, pictures, videos, etc to your clients is a great way to keep them up to date on the latest events, specials, menu changes and more.
The power of Social Media which include and are not limited to Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Youtube, Press Releases and more have shown to increase foot traffic within your store front and even raise sales. Customers like to feel a connection between the places they shop, eat and browse and the store front itself. They feel at ease knowing they can contact management at any time through various media outlets and recieve an almost instant response.
Many feel social media is just a trend, but it's not. Social Media is going to be around for a long time and not taking advantage of it is going to end up hurting your business in the long run. Research your competitors, and see what they are doing to draw in business. Digital advertising is extremely powerful depending on the type of business you are working in.
Regardless, a website is very important, especially for grand opening businesses. It helps you become recognized locally, which is important considering people on Long Island tend to stick with places they know and trust. Develop credibility for your business by showing the public that you are interested in their opinions and what they have to say.

|Manhattan Men Recognized for Academic Success by USTFCCCA
RIVERDALE, N.Y. - One day after the Manhattan College women's cross country team was recognized for its success in the classroom by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA), the men's squad received the same honor. The Jaspers, who placed three runners on the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) All-Academic Team, had a team GPA of 3.24 during the fall semester, making them one of 152 squads selected as Division I Cross Country All-Academic Teams.
Teams must have a cumulative GPA of 3.00 or higher and started at least five runners at their respective NCAA Regional Championships in order to qualify for all-academic status. Manhattan was 30th at the NCAA Northeast Regional. A total of seven MAAC schools were recognized on the men's side.
Mississippi Valley State boasted the highest team GPA in the nation (3.62), while Florida State was named Scholar Team of the Year. That award goes to the All-Academic Team that has the highest overall finish at the NCAA Championships. The Seminoles finished as national runners-up this season.

By Eric Parry
DERRY, N.H. — After 39 years, Calvary Christian School has closed its doors.
John Talley III, senior pastor of Calvary Bible Church, said enrollment has been falling for the last few years. This year it fell to 111, which put the school in financial trouble. Talley attributed the enrollment decline to the poor economy.
"You lose four or five here and four or five there, and it begins to add up," he said.
In June, the East Derry Road school graduated 17 students. In the early part of the decade, Talley said, the school had about 400 students from kindergarten through high school. But then, families started leaving.
The school made changes internally to save money, like cutting teachers' salaries 3 percent last year and laying off the school administrator, a role Talley took on last year.
But last week, Talley decided the school needed to close so officials could return tuition money to families who had already paid for the next school year.
"I didn't want to open and have to close midyear," he said.
Tuition for grades one through five was $5,200, and tuition for grades six through 12 was $5,700. Families with three or more children received a discount on the tuition.
But dropping enrollment isn't just plaguing the Derry school. Some other private religious schools in the area said they are experiencing the same problem, although not as severely.
Salem Christian School Principal Tony Long said bringing families in at the early grades is important. Salem Christian School, which has kindergartners through eighth-graders, costs $4,645 a year.
"We're trying to build our school from the lower grades up," Long said.
In previous years, the school has had full kindergarten classes with 30 students. But this year, there are only 15 kindergartners registered for the fall. The school has 95 students, but officials would ideally like to have 120.
Over the last three or four years, the school has had a slight drop in enrollment. Enrollment was closer to 130 a few years ago, Long said.
"Parents would love to come back, but they can't afford it," Long said.
Mandated public kindergarten has taken its toll on private schools in the area. To combat declining numbers in kindergarten programs, some schools have made changes to make them more convenient for parents. To be more flexible, the Salem school has expanded its preschool program this year into two six-hour blocks, Long said.
The new program allows parents who may work in Boston to drop off their children before work or pick them up later in the day if they have trouble with a typical school schedule.
Some local Catholic school officials said they aren't feeling the economic pinch as much as other private schools.
St. Thomas Aquinas School in Derry has established both a full-day and a half-day kindergarten to give parents options. The school, which has kindergartners through eighth-graders, also has started a prekindergarten program five days a week for 4-year-olds, said Principal Paul Rakiey.
"You have to be pretty creative," Rakiey said.
Mary Moran, superintendent of the state's Catholic schools, said enrollment at New Hampshire's 29 Catholic schools is dipping slightly, but not to the point where schools are closing. Locally, St. Patrick's School in Pelham and St. Joseph's Regional School in Salem both offer kindergarten through eighth grade.
"I haven't seen dramatic changes in our schools," Moran said.
At St. Thomas Aquinas, Rakiey said 182 students are registered for the fall, but he expects a few more to sign up before the end of the summer.
The school conservatively budgeted for 172 students so anything above that means it is in good shape financially, he said.
"I would project we're as healthy as last year, if not better," Rakiey said.

People start a blog for all kinds of reasons. They may have started with one or two goals in mind, but as they got into blogging more, the discovered other benefits—direct or indirect—that they hadn't anticipated.
Business-Focused Blogs
Business owners and entrepreneurs who blog may start slow and small, but for many of them, the goal is to eventually begin to generate revenue and/or leads for their business. If you have a business, you might blog:
To focus your business.
Having a blog can help you narrow your focus and become more of a specialist. Knowing a lot about a certain niche puts you in the driver's seat and attracts people who need help or advice in that area. For instance, I started out as a copywriter and social media coach, but gradually focused my business down to blogging coach. My blog reflected that, with posts on how to become a more effective blogger.
To build your credibility.
I detest the term 'thought leader' because I think it is greatly overused, to the point of becoming meaningless. But as people begin to see how much you know in your field, they will come to value you as a credible resource.
Someone they can ask questions to and get answers from.
This is a good thing. Because the more you show that you know your stuff, the greater levels of trust are built. And, as the term know, like, trust implies, the next step is hiring you to deliver a services or purchasing one of your products.
A blog helps you develop that kind of credibility.
To generate business leads.
A blog can be a very effective way to lead readers into your sales funnel. Readers will be more likely to come to you when they need something because you have already developed their trust by giving away all that free stuff (content) on your blog.
So, as they begin to see that you can solve some of their problems, some readers will become customers and clients.
To stay current with the trends in your industry.
Blogging is a perfect way to keep up to speed on the things that are happening in your field or industry. Through the research you do to write a post, you learn about all the new stuff and, better yet, you are keeping your readers current with it, too.
To make money directly though products or services.
Some bloggers sell their services and products on their blog, without even having a separate website. And often, bloggers can sell affiliate products or services that are related to their business, bringing them a steady (if small) stream of income from the affiliate payouts they get.
To increase traffic to your website.
If your posts are enticing enough, people will become more curious about what you do and the services and products you provide. So the natural next stop will be your website.
Your blog is the perfect place to offer content in small pieces and direct your readers to more comprehensive (paid) solutions on your website.
Personal Blogs
On the other hand, some blogs may never earn money because they weren't launched for that purpose. You might start a personal blog:
To help others.
Some bloggers, like my friend over at HypothyroidMom.com, start a blog because they have developed—or overcome—a disease or illness or something else, and they want to help people who are going through the same challenges.
This kind of blog can be very successful as a place where readers who are similarly challenged can connect and share thoughts and advice. It can also be a launching pad for writing a book.
To change people's opinions and beliefs.
Some bloggers do what they do to raise awareness about important issues or to get people to think differently and/or become involved in supporting a social or political cause. These blogs are usually a mix of public education and advocacy for certain issues.
To share a passion or hobby.
Some blogs focus on a personal passion: painting, scrapbooking, quilting, or other pastimes. The purpose of often to connect people with the same passion and share ideas.
Extra Benefits: The Icing On The Cake
As if the reasons above were not enough to motivate you to blog, there are other significant benefits. These extra perks will bubble over into different areas of your business or personal life.
You will be writing regularly and, boy, does that improve your skills.
You will find yourself becoming a better writer in an overall sense because you are putting in regular time, practicing the craft. And writing is a valuable skill that has applications in many other parts of one's life.
You learn how to listen.
I always thought I was listening before, but thoughtful comments from readers taught me how to lean in close and really understand what my community was saying.
Perhaps it is the immediacy of blogging.
The instant feedback.
It is this kind of listening that moves a blogger forward, helps her give her readers (and clients) the things they need to solve their problems.
You will meet some very interesting people.
Some of them you may even form partnerships with. I have, among other things, formed partnerships to co-teach a webinar, trade guest posts with other bloggers and become as member of a blogging team at a new site. All of this helped boost my visibility and credibility.
You sharpen your teaching skills.
The parts of blogging that are about teaching? They are the best.
And when a reader says, "I tried that strategy. And it worked!"? Well, those are some of the happiest moments in a blogger's life.
You will become more accountable and more responsible to deadlines of all sorts.
There is nothing like having a once or twice weekly blog post deadline to train you in meeting target dates for other projects.
You develop a "thicker skin" (not necessarily a bad thing).
Having a thicker skin doesn't mean you ignore the critics. It just means that you analyze the negative blog comments and figure out if they make sense.
If they do, make an effort to change. If they don't, accept the criticism, thank the reader for expressing her feelings and move on.
Another life lesson.
You begin to understand the huge differences between an audience and a community.
An audience listens. A community listens and responds.
An audience doesn't necessarily feel valued. A community is appreciated—and recognized.
An audience is people reading in a vacuum. A community is an audience, talking to the blogger—and more importantly—to each other.
An audience consumes and leaves. A community hangs around for the conversation.
You will find your elusive voice.
Much has been said about finding your 'voice.' But all it really means is understanding who you are, how you think about things and how you communicate with other people— in the most authentic way.
The more you blog, the closer you will get to your authentic writer's voice.
You may even get noticed by the press.
I can't guarantee this will happen, but sometimes a writer or reporter is looking for advice or quotes for his or her article. They might find you in a google search of their topic.
This happened to Judy and resulted in her being part of a story in the Boston Globe. That kind of coverage can do wonders—for both your blog and your business.

July 28, 2014
Guys, when your sweetheart says "No thanks" to sex, do you knock back a few stiff drinks to feel better? You're not alone: Fruit flies do the same thing.
That's the word from a new study that may explain why you both react that way.
Scientists describe in Friday's issue of the journal Science how they prevented male fruit flies from having sex and then tested their preferences for alcohol. Sure enough, those flies showed much more interest in booze than did other male flies that had mated successfully.
The scientists found evidence that a particular substance in the brain may help explain this. Further research may shed light on the biology of alcohol abuse and, someday, it might help lead to treatments.

With winter here and a big snowfall hitting us on the east coast, there are very important poisoning dangers for pet owners to be aware of.
The salt that is laid down on roads, sidewalks, and driveways can be a major health risk for our four legged pets. Dogs (and cats) step in salt and naturally want to lick their paws to clean them and relieve the skin irritation. However, this can cause a potentially fatal reaction to the chemicals they are ingesting. Some possible ways to prevent this is by not allowing your dog to walk on the salt, use a pet safe deicer, and wash your dog's paws off before they get the opportunity to lick them clean.
Another major health concern during the winter months is the issue of anti-freeze ingestion. Many vehicles leak anti-freeze on roads and driveways. These puddles can be very appealing to our pets because of the color, odor, and taste…making it a very concerning issue for dog owners. Consumption of anti-freeze can be fatal to dogs and cats if not treated quickly. Possible symptoms of ingestion include: vomiting, seizures, increased rate of breathing, and appearing sleepy.
Prevention is often the best way to keep our dogs safe from these very common dangers. However, if you even suspect that your dog might have been exposed/consumed either road salt or anti-freeze, make sure you contact your Veterinarian immediately. Let's keep our four legged family members safe during this winter season.

Echelon Pinot Noir
Sku: 9627
This 2001 vintage of Echelon Merlot is a blend of
our best grapes from the benches and canyons that border the
Salinas Valley. These wind-sheltered areas benefit from welldrained,
alluvial soils and long hours of sunlight with warm
days and cool nighttime temperatures. All of these
conditions are optimal for high quality fruit.
Vine canopy management such as vertical
shoot positioning, leaf pulling, cluster thinning
and deficit irrigation are used to
enhance the excellent growing conditions.
Working closely with each vineyard manager
insures special care is given to our fruit.
We pick only when we achieve full flavor and
color in the grapes. Our philosophy is that the
wine is grown in the vineyard, not made in the winery.
The 2001 vintage began with a warm spring and
very hot weather during bloom. The high temperatures
caused shatter in the young clusters, resulting in looser bunches
and lighter tonnage than expected. The summer was moderately
cool until August and September when temperatures
spiked and the grapes ripened in a short period. The quality
was excellent, partly due to the natural reduction
performed by Mother Nature in the spring.

Smart Fabric. The exchange of information and emotions.Tuesday, March 15th, 2011 by Fernando Senra
Do you know what smart fabric is? It is a smart materials, that can have its properties changed by an external stimulation, such as stress, temperature, humidity, etc. Such materials can "think", interact, do small tasks or carry information on them. It is a growing market. Check out the smart fabric conference site.
Research on Smart Fabric Technology is growing rapidly and new products are expected to be available soon. We are having a series of talks about it here at the FutureCenter, and some very interesting ideas have come up. I am particularly interested in researching about the transmission of information through materials, specially the translation of emotions.
How are you today? It is a question your shirt may ask you someday; you may not answer it, but nevertheless it will sure know how you are truly feeling. If you are feeling cold, it could warm itself up, or if you are nervous it may vibrate like a massage to calm you down. It is a new step towards the interaction with materials that surrond us.
The applications for the smart materials have just begun.
Also, you could exchange data and feelings with others, close or far away throughout smart materials. One of the first experiments is the Hug Jacket, a jacket that activates itself by the contact of a hug.
It might be a good excuse to start hugging people anyway. But the exchange of information could become really useful when you meet people you need to say something to, but keep on forgetting. Spread out the news, like an event or an important meeting just by shaking hands, sending out medical readings or just letting them know how you feel.

Read the full excerpt
Listen to this audiobook excerpt from Susan Wilson's novel One Good Dog, read by Fred Berman and Rick Adamson. Acclaimed author Susan Wilson brings us a touching yet unblinkingly authentic tale of loss and rediscovery, of true friendship and learning what's truly important in life.
The very definition of a hard-nosed businessman, Adam March has no room in his life for anything but the cold drive to succeed. Then, in an instant, he loses everything. Chance is a mix of pit bull and God-knows-what, bred to
"Working and writing with Cesar Millan has taught me that no dog is unredeemable, no matter how horrendous its past. Susan Wilson's evocative and deeply moving novel reminds us that even the most unlikely human can also find redemption, sometimes, with a little help from a canine friend." --Melissa Jo Peltier, New York Times bestselling co-author of Cesar's Way
"One Good Dog will make you cry, will make you laugh, will make you feel things more than you thought possible--and it will make you believe in second chances."--Augusten Burroughs
"One Good Dog is a wonderful novel of healing and redemption. Chance, the four-legged healer and redeemer, will linger in your mind long after the story is done."--Spencer Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of Dog On It
"ONE GOOD DOG EQUALS ONE GREAT BOOK!"--Rita Mae Brown
"Anybody who has ever loved a dog - or been "a pack of two," as Chance so aptly puts it - will love One Good Dog. This is the moving story of Adam March, a man who loses everything only to find something much greater, and it reminds us that it's animals that make us our most fully human. I hope Susan Wilson sits and stays - forever."--Lisa Scottoline
"Nowhere can we see the potential for our own redemption more clearly than in the eyes of our dog. Susan Wilson illustrates this truth poignantly and beautifully in this story of second chances."--Tami Hoag
"One Good Dog shows how animals teach us everything about hope, healing, and unconditional love. One Good Dog is a terrific book that held me from beginning to end!"--Iris Johansen
"One Good Dog tells the eloquent truth about a brave-hearted dog and a broken-hearted man, the mystical ways they rescue each other. I was so moved by Susan Wilson's writing: her understanding of the lost, in the language of the wild."--Luanne Rice
Susan Wilson is the bestselling author of books including Cameo Lake and Beauty, a modern retelling of "Beauty and the Beast," which was made into a CBS-TV movie. She lives on Martha's Vineyard.

The Panthers of Bullard won both of their games Thursday in the Great East Texas Shootout, which is being hosted by Brownsboro High School.
The Bullard boys pressed out a 68-60 overtime decision over Palestine Westwood to start their run in the three-day tournament and returned to the court later to maul Malakoff, 62-42.
Bullard's girls swapped wins by humbling Grand saline, 51-30, before losing to state ranked Alba-Golden, 48-41.

DANVERS — When Danvers High sophomore James English put the key in the ignition of a 2001 Honda Civic as part of a car giveaway contest held in Deering Stadium yesterday, the key wouldn't work.
So, he stuffed his key back in its envelope and dropped it in a box on the passenger seat, allowing another student to try.
But after all 50 students failed to start the car, supplied by the Village Automotive Group and its Keys to Success Program, a new round of the "key off" began.
This time English, 16, managed to start the car. English, who doesn't have his license yet, became the latest winner in this annual contest that rewards students who improve their grades, have strong attendance, get involved with the arts, tutor or volunteer. A similar event was held recently at Peabody High.
"I had a feeling it was going to go to Round 2," said English, who said his first key went in but didn't turn. His math teacher, Denise Yelle, gave him the key card that allowed him to enter the contest.
Raymond Ciccolo, president of the Village Automotive Group, which has Hyundai and Volvo dealerships in Danvers, said the program is meant to motivate kids who may be struggling in school. Students receive key cards from teachers who recognize improvement.
"The teachers love it because it gives them some opportunity to effectuate better behavior or whatever they are trying to promote," Ciccolo said. Students also get gift certificates for getting a key card, so everyone wins something.
"It's the best program in the entire school," said Assistant Principal Mark Strout, who said kids can get key cards for a variety of reasons, including acts of kindness. About 104 were passed out this year, and 50 students were picked for yesterday's Key Off.
Senior Dallas Masters won a $1,000 scholarship to attend Salem State University in the fall.
"I think it's amazing," she said of the Key Off. "It's a chance to get everyone together. ... Even if you don't win, you still get to bond with everyone and have fun."

Luke Murphy Lecture
Luke Murphy, Certainty Shelter, installation shot (via).
Canadian tech-artist Luke Murphy (now living in NYC) visited SCAD on Thursday to talk to the Painting Department about his digital art. His work is non-narrative. It explores "disembodied digital line" and a completely aesthetic use of digital media using algorithms and programmed code. Interestingly, Murphy said that the dividing line between traditional and new media art is randomness. This is the basis for his work, which he says gives digital art a touch of 'naturalness'. He collects Geiger counters and uses them in reaction to uranium glass objects to produce random, unrepeatable visualizations. Take, for instance, his piece Barney's Next Step After Canvas. This is, of course, a result of one interaction with a radioactive object so it recreates Barnett Newman's zips inspired by the painting Vir Heroicus Sublimis (1950-51). While I enjoyed his humor and experimentation, I'm not sold on a fixation with randomness. Art of this nature, in my opinion, is more intelligible when it has a greater purpose for interacting with science. Also, Murphy started this work in the early 1990s and his aesthetic hasn't really changed since. It would be interesting to see the results of a collaboration with more skilled programmers.
Dan Goods talks about working with NASA/JPL as Visual Strategist. Dan is an example of a creative person with a background in art and design working in the field of science. His goal is to make experiences for people to experience science. There's a funny segment at the beginning of this video where he lists the normal steps for getting a job with JPL and then the 'alternative path', which is how he got in.
I've been working on my literature review for my thesis. Dan's work relates directly to research I've conducted on creativity and innovation where the arts merge with science. It's been enjoyable reading Dan Pink's A Whole New Mind, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's Creativity, and David Edwards' The Lab. I also feel like I could spend the entire month overloading ideas into my head with TED Talks. They're definitely "ideas worth spreading."
Thesis Starts Now!
I have to start writing my thesis… Today is the first day of Winter quarter and I am registered for my last class towards my masters: Arts Administration M.A. Thesis. I'm excited to get started, but the break was so long—6 weeks out of the swing. Now I need to dive in and continue my research and start writing. As of right now, my working title is "Convergent Innovation: Uniting Art and Science in Creativity," but this could change.
So let me explain my topic…
Whether in the art museum or science museum, studio or laboratory, the recent intersection of art and science is not limited by setting. If the setting is unimportant, then how is the practice of interdisciplinary collaboration taking place? Rather than limiting the practice to one discipline or the other—art-based or science-based—it must be a collaborative partnership. Therefore, my proposed thesis will explore the institutionalization of reciprocal practices between both disciplines.
I plan on researching and analyzing the advantages and limitations of three existing models: an educational initiative, a cross-cultured museum, and a non-profit arts organization. (Possible examples include MIT Media Lab and the Exploratorium.) Then the next component will propose a new-and-improved interdisciplinary model.
Background of Study
In 1959, renowned physicist C. P. Snow delivered a lecture at the University of Cambridge lamenting the lack of communication between two intellectually elite disciplines. Frustrated with the cultural divide between natural sciences and the humanities, he coined this crisis the "The Two Cultures." Snow warned that if the gap were not bridged, the role of science in society would be one of misunderstanding and alienation. As an even greater repercussion, this increasing separation could stifle future progress. His argument was simple: in order to foster creativity and innovation, the two disciplines must come together.
In historical context, Snow's "two cultures" is a predominantly British phenomenon attributed to academic snobbery between Cambridge and Oxford at the time. Furthermore, the rift was framed between scientists and literary minds. According to Snow, while scientists have the "future in their bones," literary intellectuals are preoccupied with traditional culture. This difference in scholarly interests keeps the two disciplines from mingling, perpetuating the gap. However, Snow ultimately feared scientific illiteracy resulting from a lack of appreciation. In his opinion, preserving science's cultural role is dependent upon less specialization and more comprehension in education. Finding a balance between the practicality of science and the ingenuity of the humanities is therefore essential.
Ten years later, visionary thinker Buckminster Fuller foretold of the blurring of lines between science and art. In his essay "Prevailing Conditions in the Arts," Fuller describes a dialogue with Snow sharing sentiments for the dichotomy. Fuller proclaims himself a comprehensivist—one that synthesizes underlying relationships in all areas of knowledge. Believing that specialization is unproductive, Fuller envisions a shift towards interdisciplinary practices between art and science. He writes:
"…[M]an is coming into an extraordinary new era on earth, in which we are going to be able to deal conceptually with advanced science. Inasmuch as conceptual communication is art, art will become intimate with science; and philosophy will be able to comprehend the significance of developments; and thought may enter upon new speculation and altogether new comprehension."
This proposition of interdisciplinary 'collaboration for innovation' is not new; many professionals agree that partnership is a necessary development. Jonah Lehrer, a contributing editor at Wired Magazine and author of Proust Was a Neuroscientist (a book examining how the arts have anticipated scientific breakthroughs), often explores the overlap. In early 2008, he wrote an article stressing the need to integrate the arts into the field of scientific research. He stresses that, in order to continue the search for absolute knowledge, "Science needs the arts." Studies like physics and neuroscience can only go so far with explaining and imagining the intangible truths of our human existence. To put it simply, science is limited by its reductionist methodologies. It is only with the help of artistic interpretation that science can advance because, as Lehrer says, "This world of human experience is the world of the arts." Because of this commonality, Lehrer believes that art has the distinct ability to augment science.
As Buckminster Fuller predicted, interdisciplinary immersion—the synthesis of art and science—is already underway. Today, a new cultural movement has emerged: Hybrid Arts (or Sci-Arts). This timely development involves individuals and organizations at the intersection of art and science exploring the crossovers and overlaps.
In 2004, American artist Josiah McElheny partnered with cosmologist David Weinberg to create An End to Modernity (2005), a sculptural interpretation of the Big Bang theory executed in both art and science. McElheny founded the partnership during his residency at Ohio State University's Wexner Center for the Arts. With a desire to convey an accurate link to science, he was directed to Weinberg through curator Helen Molesworth. To this day, McElheny and Weinberg maintain a collaborative working relationship in exploring cosmology.
As artists consult scientists to execute highly structured works of art, scientists explore their own artistic tendencies. For example, neuroscientist Jeff Lichtman developed Brainbow, a colorful mapping of the brain's neurons. Brainbow is merely one example of creative representations deriving from scientific research, which draw the attention of both scientists and artists alike.
Various arts organizations are attempting to cultivate this merge including Art and Science Collaborations, Inc. (ASCI) in New York, Leonardo International Society for the Arts, Sciences and Technology in San Francisco, and The Arts Catalyst in London. In addition, a number of science organizations have integrated artist-in-labs and artist-in-residence programs, some of which are more successful than others. For instance, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) employed their first artist-in-residence, Laurie Anderson, in 2003. This program quickly ended in 2005 when a federal bill passed prohibiting NASA to use funds for artists-in-residence. The agency has not sponsored an artist since.
It is clear that the link between art and science is enduring. C. P. Snow's advice still resonates today. "The Two Cultures" is a catalytic reminder that the disciplines must interact with each other on the same plane. Essentially, it is imperative for both disciplines to work closely with one another without using each other for their own purposes. The pressing question arises: How can this partnership be accomplished without opportunistic outcomes?
Statement of Problem
Despite interdisciplinary efforts of the aforementioned models, a formal model for reciprocal practice is missing. Stephen Wilson, a leading authority on the merge, says, "The intersection of art with science and technology calls for new kinds of resources. Traditional museums, schools, art shows, journals, and organizations will not satisfy the need without significant innovation." Moreover, the biggest obstacle for reciprocity is perception, a holding pattern of the mind.
There is more of a tendency for artists inspired by science to explore the crossover; scientists, on the other hand, are less inclined to seek the assistance of artists. Though the two fields differ drastically in approach, they share a common denominator: creativity. In 2003, the American Academy of Sciences published a report, Beyond Productivity, stating, "Creativity plays a crucial role in culture; creative activities provide personal, social, and educational benefit." The underlying motivation for combining art and science is innovation for societal benefit or, in other words, the greater good. As Buckminster Fuller would say, society has progress; now it needs comprehension.
John Maeda, President of Rhode Island School of Design, subscribes to this idea. With a mixed background in computer science and graphic design, he clarifies:
"Our economy is built upon convergent thinkers, people that execute things, get them done. But artists and designers are divergent thinkers: they expand the horizon of possibilities. Superior innovation comes from bringing divergents (the artists and designers) and convergents (science and engineering) together." (via)
Therefore, it is necessary to implement a shared cultural space—a hybrid model—for artists and scientists to work towards a discourse in both practices. The creation of a hybrid model offers a formal process where both outputs can occur.
A hybrid arts and research institute would provide a project-space for artists and scientists to explore. The mission of the organization is to unite art and science in creativity and to create, display, and educate. The key stipulation for interdisciplinary practices requires that the results are collaborative in nature. Providing professionals in both fields with residencies and laboratories, the institute would also promote and attract a broader range of funding from both art and science grants and fellowships. Exhibiting and publishing the results of the alliance produces an essential byproduct: education. The educational component of the organization is centered on the project space, exhibition space, research space, studios, laboratories, and lecture halls. Lastly, the institute would provide an experience for both the participants and the viewer.
Never Enough Books on the Shelf
Every time I go to the bookstore, I end up with an endless wishlist. I like to take pictures of books to remember to order them later on (life after thesis).
…[M]an is coming into an extraordinary new era on earth, in which we are going to be able to deal conceptually with advanced science. Inasmuch as conceptual communication is art, art will become intimate with science; and philosophy will be able to comprehend the significance of developments; and thought may enter upon new speculation and altogether new comprehension.
R. Buckminster Fuller, from "Prevailing Conditions in the Arts" in Utopia or Oblivion: The Prospects for Humanity.

National Park Service wants to save part of K-25's North Tower; will DOE adjust plans?
The National Park Service wants to save at least a part of K-25's North Tower in order to help preserve some of the historic site's authenticity for future viewers, and that could throw a wrench in the Department of Energy's proposed mitigation plan and efforts to complete demolition of the World War II-era structure.
DOE earlier this year distributed its proposed Final Memorandum of Agreement, which includes the federal agency's mitigation plan for knocking down the four-story K-25 building in its entirety but preserving and relocating parts of the uranium-enrichment facility elsewhere at the Oak Ridge site.
The NPS, at the request of the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, commented at length on the mitigation plans and recommended saving two cells from the North Tower -- as well as retaining the exterior wall. Here is the 26-page report.
"Retaining the exterior wall of the North End Tower in addition to the two-cell arrangement would confer a sense of mass and volume that is otherwise unavailable, and present the only truly appropriate facade for a compelling K-25 experience," the NPS said.
"The concept of 'authenticity' cannot be overstated in the preservation and interpretive planning for K-25," the report said.
The Department of Interior last year recommended creating a multi-site Manhattan Project National Historical Park, involving Los Alamos, Hanford and Oak Ridge.
DOE has repeatedly stated that the North Tower is too deteriorated to salvage, citing safety concerns for workers and extraordinary expense to try to prop up the old building. The NPS, in its comments, agreed that the deterioration is great and noted that some areas in order to salvage would require such means as to alter the historical appearance and significance.
But saving part of the structure and equipment, in the original context, is important, the park service report said.
"Because the K-25 building has no substitute, the NPS considers it vital that the maximum practical amount of the original building and equipment be preserved to enable the best possible interpretation of this facility and its operation," the report said. "Retention of the two-cell arrangement constitutes the absolute minimum amount of equipment needed to properly illustrate and interpret the gaseous diffusion process."
NPS said that proposal would preserve about one-twelfth of the original North End Tower and less than 0.3 percent of K-25's original converters.
The National Park Service said it did not recommend display of "disconnected examples of each major process device in an on open-air pavillion," as had been proposed. Even with a roof, exposure would result in rapid deterioration of the "extraordinary equipment, not to mention its vulnerability to intentional damage."
The NPS also wants to salvage the concrete slabs underneath the entirety of the mile-long, U-shaped K-25 building (all of the West Wing and a significant portion of the East Wing have already been demolished down to the pad).
"The loss of the K-25 building's large West and East Wings constitutes a significant diminishment of the original building's overall historic integrity," the NPS report said. "However, from the standpoint of historic interior and exterior fabric, purpose, function, equipment, and interior layout, K-25's surviving, still sizable (approximately 110,000 sq. ft. ) North End Tower remains a relatively intact, tangible representation of the historic significance embodied in the much larger original plant, particularly when considered from an interior perspective."
The Department of Energy hosted a meeting in Oak Ridge last November to gather input from the historic preservation groups regarding the K-25 mitigation plan. Afterwards, the Department of Energy distributed its final Memorandum of Agreement, and a DOE official indicated that would probably be the last revision of plans to deal with K-25 and associated preservation activities.
However, DOE spokesman Mike Koentop said today there would be another meeting of the signatories to the historic preservation agreement and interested parties. Koentop said he was not immediately able to confirm the date of the meeting.

The city of Boston, in general, is a college town. The city is not too big or overwhelming, and there are so many schools located within such a small proximity to one another. Northeastern is located among some of the best attractions, events, and shopping that Boston has to offer! First of all, Northeastern is just around the corner from the beloved Fenway Park. If you're not a Red Sox fan when you get to Boston, chances are you'll be one when you leave. Also around the corner is Newbury Street, which is famous for its high-end boutiques, fancy restaurants, and beautiful architecture. Parallel to Newbury Street is Boylston Street, which is lined with fun bars packed with mostly college students. Even if you're not 21, you can still enjoy Boylston Street's Pour House (along with many other restaurants) for a cheap and incredibly delicious brunch.
If you're looking to watch the Celtics or Bruins play or see your favorite musical artist perform, the TD Banknorth Garden is just a short 10-minute T-ride away from campus. Downtown Boston has plenty of attractions, such as Faneuil Hall, Chinatown, Downtown Crossing, and the theater district. Another great aspect of Boston's atmosphere is the local suburbs like Brookline and Cambridge, which are only 10 minutes away and offer a nice break from the chaos of the city. No matter what you enjoy seeing, doing, or eating, the city of Boston and its suburbs have so much to offer—it's impossible to think of going to college anywhere else.

Tools of the Trade recently got a sneak peek at what's next from German tool manufacturer Festool at its new U.S. headquarters in Indiana, and we're allowed to share three tools with our readers.
The Kapex is the first miter saw from Festool in the United States, and the first variable speed model we've ever seen. It has a 10-inch blade, right and left miter and bevel action, and a cutting head that slides on fixed arms. Festool says that the design of this saw gives it nearly the capacity of a 12-inch slider at a weight of only 47 pounds. Look for a test of this saw in our July/August 2008 issue.
Also new is the MFK700 trim router, which has vertical and horizontal bases. The horizontal base features an adjustable bearing guide and holds the bit at a slight angle, which allows for flush-trimming edge banding with no chance of marring the top surface.
The last item is so new, it's not even out in Germany yet: Festool's biggest router ever, the OF2200. This powerful plunge router is uniquely styled to be held at an angle comfortable to the user, and features a quick motor brake.
Like other Festool products, these newest feature electronically controlled motors, integrated dust collection ports, and very fine (but metric) calibrated adjustments.
Look for photos of these new tools in my blog at www.toolsofthetrade.net/blogs.
