GRAND FORKS, N.D. -- Making his first collegiate start for the injured Braden Hanson, fifth-year senior Marcus Hendrickson tied a school record with six touchdown passes and led North Dakota to a 45-37 non-conference win over Portland State. It was the 10th straight victory in the Potato Bowl USA game for UND, who improved to 2-0 on the young season.
Hendrickson, who also led UND with 50 yards rushing, completed 16 of 25 passes for 294 yards. Five of his six passing touchdowns came in the first half, including three to junior receiver Greg Hardin, who finished the night with six catches for 190 yards.
UND and Portland State (1-1) combined to rack up 916 yards of total offense, nearly 600 of which came in an opening half that saw UND take a 35-24 lead to the locker room.
Receivers R.J. McGill and Jameer Jackson also hauled in touchdown strikes from Hendrickson, while true freshman Kenny Gollday nabbed the first two receptions of his career for 29 yards.
PSU freshman quarterback Kieran McDonagh went 21-for-41 for 301 yards and three touchdowns, but threw a pair of costly second-half interceptions.
PSU's D.J. Adams led all players with 144 rushing yards on 16 caries, while receiver Justin Monahan had six catches for 156 yards and two scores.
UND junior middle linebacker Garrison Goodman had a career-high 12 tackles to lead all players.
The Green and White special teams came up big once again, blocking three PSU kicks.
The game started inauspiciously for Hendrickson and company as after PSU held the offense to a three-and-out, McDonagh connected with Monahan on a 65-yard touchdown play on the visitors' first offensive play.
Hendrickson and Hardin had an answer though as that duo hit on a 66-yard touchdown on the first play of the ensuing drive. Hardin got great downfield blocking by McGill and Jackson on the quick screen pass and he was off to the races for his first score of the game.
A fumbled punt return by senior Erik Mersereau would leave PSU in great field position, but Goodman and company held the Vikings to a field goal attempt that the San Ramon, Calif., native would promptly block to swing momentum back to the home team in what was turning into a wild first quarter.
The action would slow down as the defense settled in to force some punts before Nick Fernandez put PSU back in the lead with a 44-yard field goal.
Fortunately, it would not take long for the Hendrickson-Hardin combo to strike again for the home team. This time the connection came from 26 yards out and made it a 14-9 contest in favor of UND. The lead was shortlived, however, as McDonagh once again found Monahan on a deep passing score in the opening minute of the second quarter to put the Vikings back in the lead at 16-14.
Hendrickson and UND would build its lead to 28-16 with a pair of unanswered touchdowns as he found Seth Nichols from one-yard out before connecting with Hardin on a perfectly thrown 49-yard bomb with six minutes, 45 seconds to play in the half.
Adams would reel off a 38-yard touchdown run to pull PSU within four points with just over two minutes in the half. After the PSU defense forced a three-and-out, the UND defense responded with its own three-and-out with 45 seconds play.
Redshirt freshman Casey Young then came up with one of the bigger plays of the game as he blocked a punt by Thomas Duyndam that was recovered by Blair Townsend on the PSU seven-yard line. Hendrickson found McGill two plays later from five yards out to give UND an 11-point lead at the break.
The second half was not nearly as action-packed as the first, but it was just as nerve wracking down the stretch. UND scored the only 10 points of the third quarter to pull ahead by 21 points - its largest lead of the game - but PSU would stage a late rally to make things interesting down the stretch. Junior linebackers Dominique Bennett and Cordero Finley both came up with interceptions in that stanza to help keep PSU off the scoreboard.
Fernandez hit two fourth-quarter field goals and a 25-yard touchdown pass from McDonagh to Alex Toureen put the visitors within a touchdown and a two-point conversion with two minutes, 28 seconds left on the clock.
PSU head coach Nigel Burton opted to kick the ball deep with two timeouts left, but Hendrickson used his legs on a third-and-four to gain the five yards he needed and seal the win for UND.
The Green and White will travel to San Diego State next Saturday for a contest against the Aztecs of the Mountain West Conference. Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m. CT.

LUMBERTON — County Manager Ricky Harris declined to comment on Monday's request by the president of the local branch of the NAACP that the county and his civil rights organization "partner" in the search for a black to serve as an assistant county manager.
"That's personnel," Harris said. "I'm not saying anything about that."
Harris will review the applications for the open assistant manager's position and recommend to the commissioners who should get the job. The position has been advertised since October.
During Monday's meeting, Robert Davis, the newly installed president of Robeson County's branch of the NAACP, asked the board to hire a black assistant county manager — and that the NAACP be enlisted in the search process.
"The NAACP aims its mission as to ensure the political, economic, educational and social equality of all people and to eliminate racial hatred … within the boundaries of our county," Davis told the board.
Davis emphasized that the next assistant manager should meet all of the requirements set by the county, which, he said, are similar to those set by the NAACP. He also told the board that any black chosen for the assistant manager's position should be one that is acceptable to the black community.
"I believe the two parties can work together to ensure that the requirements of the position are met," Davis said. "…Working together we can bring great harmony among all the people (of all races)."
In the past the county has had two assistant managers, but there has only been one since Harris became the county's interim manager when former Manager Ken Windley retired in November 2010. Harris had been an assistant county manager before being elevated to his current position.
The position to be filled is the one that has been held on an interim basis by Charles Britt, the county's fire marshal and director of Emergency Services, since former Assistant County Manager Rod Jenkins, who is black, left in June 2011 to become deputy director of Human Services for the Cumberland County Health Department. Britt, who is white, has told The Robesonian that he has applied for the job.
Harris has stated previously that he does not know if the commissioners will eventually move to hire a second assistant county manager.
In other business, the commissioners approved a resolution setting the specific boundaries for property that will serve as the site of a dental school that the East Carolina University Dental School of Medicine plans to open in Lumberton. To move the project forward, the city of Lumberton will also have to approve the site as a minor subdivision, according to County Attorney Hal Kinlaw.
The 2.5 acres of land is located in front of Pinecrest Country Club, near the county Department of Social Services on N.C. 711, and adjacent to the Pinecrest Village subdivision. The county has donated the land, valued at about $30,000, to the school.
The university plans to set up a Community Learning Center on the site, one of 10 such facilities it wants to open in rural areas across the state. The center will provide a community-based site for fourth-year dental students and post-graduate students who will provide free and reduced-cost dental care to area residents.
In other business, the commissioners: Heard a report from Ronald Oxendine, the director of the county's Housing Authority, who reported that there are few vacancies at the county's four sites, which include a total of 300 units. Interior renovations are currently going on at the West Gate complex, he said, with 40 of the 100 units now completed.
— Tabled appointments to the county's Parks and Recreation Committee.
— Recessed Monday's meeting until the beginning of their annual three-day retreat on Jan. 30 at the county's Emergency Operations Center.

I currently do self fulfillment of my print sales, what are the main advantages of handing this part of my business off to SmugMug? The main reason I've been doing it this way is so I know exactly what my customer is getting and I can proof all the steps of the workflow.
Advantages of Smugmug fulfillment:
Disadvantages of Smugmug fulfillment:
Great answer by @jfriend00, plus: - shipping cost only happens once- from the LAB to the client - with smugmug you can set up your own branding. The product gets to your client with your own sticker on the box and a thank you print 100% customized by you. I use the print to thank them and remind them to like us on Facebook and recommend our shop. During the Holliday season I also add a coupon code for repeat orders - since smugmug enables you to make your own promotions. - you never have to go to the post office again to send prints. Frankly, that's been totally amazing :p |

Earthology (LP sleeve edition)
CD (Item 493040) Now Again, 2010 — Condition: New Copy
The long-awaited return of the Whitefield Brothers – melding global funk and tripped out psychedelia as masterfully as on their massive In The Raw album – and tripping it out and funking it up even more this time! The psychedelic sounds get more pronounced play this time out, but it's still well within the funk realm – gritty drums and percussion under fuzzed out rhythms, keys that range from a jazzy funk groove to thick layers of fuzz and bubbling atmospherics, exotic string accents, heady bass grooves and more. Their reach is global, too, with influences from the east and the west – and a heck of an impressive guest roster – with leftfield MCs on a couple gems – Edan & Mr Lif on "The Gift" and Percee P & MED on "Reverse" – plus Bajka, Brooklyn funk revival masters the El Michels Affair, and fellow psych funk traveller Quantic. Titles include "Joyful Exaltation", "Safari Strut", "Taisho", "Sad Nile", "Ntu", "Pamukkale", "Alin", "Breakin Through" feat El Michels Affair, "Sem Yelesh", "Lullaby For Lagos" feat Quantic, "Chich" and more. (Comes in a nice gatefold booklike cover.) © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

Alhambra Palace, Granada Casa Real, Alcázar
On the north side of Charles V's palace is the entrance to the Alhambra Palace, residence of the Moorish rulers of the Nasrid dynasty. Work on the building of the palace began in the reign of Yusuf I (1333-54) and was substantially completed in the reign of Mohammed V (1354-91). Like all Moorish secular buildings, it is externally plain and unpretentious: it depends for artistic effect on its carefully contrived ground plan and its sumptuous decoration, one of the finest achievements of Moorish art. The palace, surrounded by its walls and numerous towers, was known to the Arabs as Medinat al-Hambra, the ''Red City'', after the color of the stone.

Alhambra Palace Highlights
The interior of the Alhambra Palace is an outstanding example of Islamic palace architecture, with its careful articulation into three sections - the Mexuar, used for the public administration of justice and for large assemblies; the royal palace proper (the Divan or Serrallo); and the women's apartments or Harem, designed for the private and family life of the monarch. In each section all the rooms open off a central courtyard, as in the old Greco-Roman house; in the Divan this has a large ornamental pond (Court of Myrtles), in the Harem a fountain (the Lion Fountain).
An antechamber at the Alhambra Palace leads into the azulejo-clad Mexuar, originally an audience chamber and court-room, which after the Christian conquest was used as a chapel. Adjoining the Mexuar is the Patio del Mexuar, on the left of which is the Cuarto Dorado (Golden Chamber), on the right one of the Alhambra's finest facades.
Court of Myrtles
The Patio del Mexuar leads into the Patio de los Arrayanes or Patio de los Mirtos, which takes its name from the hedges of myrtle round the central pond. The court is 37m/121ft long by 23m/75ft across, with a graceful arcade at each end. At its north end, beyond the Sala de la Barca (Hall of Blessing), is the 45m/148ft high Torre de Comares.
Hall of the Ambassadors
In the Torre de Comares is the Sala de los Embajadores (Hall of the Ambassadors). In this room (11m/36ft square, 18m/59ft high), also used as a throne room, the rulers of Granada received foreign envoys. With its magnificent larchwood dome, its many tall windows and its profusion of ornament (over 150 different patterns, including verses from the Koran and floral and geometric themes), this is one of the richest and most beautiful apartments in the Alhambra.
Court of Lions
From the southeast corner of the Court of Myrtles at the Alhambra Palace in Granada the tour leads through the Sala de los Mozárabes into the Patio de los Leones, the central feature of the royal winter residence built by Mohammed V, with the adjoining Harem. In the center of this spacious court (28m/92ft by 16m/52ft) is the Lion Fountain, its basin supported by twelve marble lions. The arcading round the court, with its 124 columns, is of extraordinary lightness and delicacy.
Hall of the Two Sisters
On the north side of the Court of Lions is the Sala de las Dos Hermanas which together with the succeeding apartments was probably the women's winter lodging. Its tile and stucco decoration is perhaps the finest in the whole of the Alhambra. The honeycomb dome, the largest of all Arab stalactitic vaults, has some 5,000 celles. The hall owes its name to the two large identical slabs of marble let into the floor.
Sala de los Ajimeces
Opening off the Hall of the Two Sisters at the Alhambra Palace is the Sala de los Ajimeces. Between its two arched windows (ajimeces) is the Mirador de Lindaraja (or de Daraxa), a charming little enclosed balcony with three windows reaching down almost to the floor and overlooking the Patio de Lindaraja.
Hall of the Kings
At the east end of the Court of Lions Alhambra is the Sala de los Reyes or Sala de la Justicia. It is divided into seven sections with high stalactitic domes. In its alcove-like recesses are well preserved 15th century ceiling paintings. Highly unusual are three paintings on leather of scenes from court life and possibly portraits of rulers. The paintings show a consultation between ten magnificently attired councillors, a hunting scene and a representation of the rescue of a maiden from the clutches of a wild man.
Sala de los Abencerrajes
On the south side of the Court of Lions is the Sala de los Abencerrajes, named after a powerful aristocratic family who probably celebrated their winter festival here at the Alhambra Palace in Granada. In the center of the room, which is crowned by a mighty stalactitic dome, is a twelve-sided marble fountain.
Patio de Lindaraja
Leaving the Alhambra Palace and going down a staircase, twice turning left, the visitor comes to the Patio de Lindaraja, formerly the inner palace garden, which is planted with cypresses and orange-trees. The garden was not laid out until the victory of the Christian kings; the fountain formerly stood in the courtyard of the Mexuar.
Queen's Dressing-Room
From the Hall of the Two Sisters of Alhambra Palace, we pass along the gallery on the west side of the Jardín de Daraxa and through two other rooms in the outer gallery on the north side of the palace into the Tocador de la Reina on the upper floor of the Torre del Peinador, from which there are fine views, particularly to the east of the Torre de las Damas and the Generalife.
On the south side of the Patio de la Reja are the Baños, an extensive complex of underground rooms dating from the time of Yusuf I: first the Sala de las Camas, with a gallery for girl singers, then a small bath, a steam bath and two women's baths.
It is well worth visiting the towers of the Alhambra in Granada.The towers form part of the fortification and are associated with various historical moments at Alhambra.
Torre de las Damas
Immediately east of the Alhambra Palace is the Torre de las Damas, a defensive tower with an adjoining vaulted hall, a pool and a small mosque.
Battlemented Tower
East from the Torre de las Damas, at the Puerta de Hierro or del Arrabal (where there is a path down to the Paseo de los Tristes), stands the Torre de los Picos.
Torre del Candil
Beyond the Torre de los Picos of Alhambra is the Torre del Candil, with a view of the former Convento de San Francisco, Granada's oldest religious house, converted in 1495 from an Arab palace and now a Parador Nacional.
Tower of the Girl Captive
The Torre de la Cautiva of Alhambra comes after the Torre del Candil, with a small patio and a splendidly decorated principal apartment.
The Torre de las Infantas
The Torre de las Infantas at the Alhambra Palace has a richly decorated hall and affords extensive views from the upper platform.
Torre del Agua
At the east end of the Alhambra Hill is the Torre del Agua, with the cistern which supplied the Alhambra with water.
Other Towers
Around the corner from Torre del Agua, on the south side of the Alhambra Palace, are two smaller towers, the Torre de Juan de Arce and Torre de Baltasar de la Cruz, followed by the tower of the Puerta de los Siete Suelos (''Gate of Seven Storys''), two other small towers, then the Torre de las Cabezas (''Tower of the Heads'') and finally the Torre de los Carros (''Tower of the Wagons''), at the exit.

LETTER: Catholic Church should have a voice in public square
To the Times:
The Daily Times' anti-Catholic editorial on Sept. 30 aimed at Archbishop Charles Chaput once again shows the paper's prejudice against the rights of Catholics or their leaders to speak out on public topics. The insulting, bullying language leveled by the Daily Times against Archbishop Chaput only reinforces the lesson that Archbishop Chaput was trying to convey to Catholics in his online column. We need to bring a healthy dose of skepticism to what we read in the news, as too often the media's biases include disdain for Catholic belief.
What set off the Daily Times' Editorial Board was Archbishop Chaput's weekly column in CatholicPhilly.com on Sept. 27, where Chaput referenced a recent poll by the Gallup Organization. The poll found that 60 percent of Americans, a record high, have little or no trust in the mass media's ability "to report the news fully, accurately and fairly." In his column, Archbishop Chaput went on to express his opinion that no single source of news, not The New York Times or Fox News, is an adequate source of information on disputed moral and social issues.
The Daily Times Editorial Board apparently could not stand that a Catholic church leader would actually express an opinion that the media should not blindly be believed, backed up by a poll from the Gallup organization. Therefore, it went on a rant against Chaput, rehashing events in the priest sex abuse scandal (which the media also ignored for decades) and finally, taking shots at Chaput's stance on educational choice.
First, let's examine Chaput's position on the public's opinion on the reliability of the media. If the Daily Times did not like the Gallup poll, let's look at another generally reliable polling organization. In August 2012, the Pew Research Center released the results of a survey conducted in July 2012 that found that the average "positive believability rating" among 13 leading news organizations, including the "daily newspaper you know best" was 56 percent. Only 56 percent of the American people believe what news organizations say! The Pew Research Center, which has been tracking these statistics for a decade, found that the number of Americans who doubt the believability of what the news tells them is down from 71 percent ten years ago. When asked about the believability of the daily newspaper "you know best", only 57 percent of Americans gave a positive believability rating, down from 64 percent ten years ago. The Pew Research Center found that news organizations did even worse among Americans that identify as Independents, with no partisan axe to grind. Among Independents, the news organization believability rating drops to only 52 percent.
The next tactic of the Daily Times Editorial Board was to level criticism against Archbishop Chaput for daring to speak to elected officials or, heaven forbid, actually appear in public with elected officials. The Daily Times' ire against Chaput is centered particularly on the issue of educational choice. Archbishop Chaput has spoken publicly and forcefully about the importance of educational choice as a civil right.
While it is clear that the Daily Times Editorial Board is against educational choice, it is disturbing how the Times descends to the use of vitriolic language about Archbishop Chaput to ridicule him when he expresses the opposite opinion to elected officials. Back in February, when Archbishop Chaput announced that Bonner and Prendie and the other Catholic high schools would remain open, he was joined at the press conference by elected officials of both parties speaking in favor of educational choice. In an editorial dated Feb. 27, the Daily Times Editorial Board called this "the unseemly glad-handing of priests with politicians". In the Times' Sept. 30 editorial describing the recent meeting between Archbishop Chaput, Governor Corbett and other elected leaders at Prendie and Bonner, the Times decried that Chaput "paraded" those elected officials before the cameras. If the Daily Times has expressed such contempt for another religious leader or religion, I have yet to see it.
As a candidate for the Delaware County Council in 2011, my running mates and I were invited to visit many houses of worship of different faiths and religions to discuss issues in our county-affecting members of those churches. Dare I say that had we appeared at any Catholic church, the hue and cry would have been long and loud, for such "parading" would no doubt have been labeled "unseemly" by the Times.
Since his arrival to this archdiocese one year ago, Archbishop Chaput has taken positive steps to right the operations of the archdiocese from both moral and business standpoints. He has shown that he will listen to his flock -- witness the "Miracle on the Hill". Just as important, Archbishop Chaput is a leader who has openly expressed his opinions and willingness to engage in dialogue with public officials.
If the Daily Times want to help reverse the trend of less and less people believing what it reports, perhaps it should stick to the issues and drop its apparent disdain for Catholic belief. Continued...
