So far, the calls from Congress to stop air travel between the United States and Mexico are limited, as are the demands the close the border because of the swine flu outbreak. But that could still change.
At the first Congressional hearing on the swine flu outbreak, Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison of Texas raised the issue of closing the border, but was assured by Centers for Disease Control officials that it isn't needed right now.
Something tells me if the number of flu cases jumps dramatically - especially along the Southwest border - those calls for action might multiply.
We'll see if that comes up today when Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano testifies before a Senate committee.
Napolitano made clear again at a briefing on Tuesday that she's not ready to shut down the border.
"And with respect to closing the border, again, you would close the border if you thought you could contain disease, the spread of disease," Napolitano said.
"But the disease already is in a number of states within the United States, so the containment issue doesn't really play out," the Secretary added.
It will be an interesting test for Napolitano, who arrives with a somewhat damaged brand after her dustup in recent weeks over a Homeland Security intelligence review of "right wing extremist" groups.
I would bet someone will broach that subject today - I mean - why not? You don't get that many bites at the apple, and you may as well give it a shot.

That's so cool, thanks for posting pictures!
Over here it was from 1:30-5:00 (?) AM so I couldn't stay up and watch... plus, it was cloudy outside. I'm really glad I got to "see" it thanks to you! :)

That's awesome. My genius gal insisted on going to Griffith Observatory last night to "see" the eclipse.
I said hey genius you realize that it's raining and there is 0% chance of seeing anything but she insisted.
We heard a great lecture about solar and lunar eclipses, stuff I already knew because I am an astronomy (well, more cosmology) geek, but she was enthralled.
Sigh. the things I do.

Occupy Tampa braves near-freezing temperatures in West Tampa park listen
01/04/12 Seán KinaneWMNF Drive-Time News Wednesday | Listen to this entire show:
Last night was the coldest night of the winter so far in Tampa. According to Wunderground.com it was 35 degrees Fahrenheit right before sunrise at the University of Tampa weather station. At about 7:30 this morning as the sun began to rise a couple of miles away at Voices of Freedom park in West Tampa about 30 people slept inside tents or in sleeping bags on the ground at the new Occupy Tampa location. As a few of them began to emerge from sleep, protester Ashley Perry sat by a campfire to tell what the cold night had been like for the occupiers.
"Oh yeah it was in the thirties, it wasn't too bad, most of us are sleeping in tents. We've only got a couple out on the ground and they choose to be there I guess. But yeah, we insulate the bottom; put all your blankets inside your sleeping bag with you, you're pretty good.â€
"Do you know if there were people at Curtis Hickson park this morning?â€
"I don't think so. Some of our strong supporters from over there came over not too long ago so I'm not too sure if they're hanging out over there or what.â€
"Was last night colder than the night before?â€
"I think so, Yeah. People stuck it out anyway. If they can do it in New York and Seattle, we're fine.â€
"Do you have any worries about later on in the season, in the winter, that it will get colder and make it tougher or was last night a good test?â€
"I think last night was a pretty good test, because I think you know, for one we're using the knowledge that other people have built, don't just put your tents straight on the ground , use our extra cardboard, use our extra signs; anything we're not using at the time, and get that level of insulation there. And figuring out rather than piling all your blankets on top of you put them in the sleep bag with you and sleep almost naked, and using these survival tactics and were pretty cozy.â€
"Are there any electrical outlets you can use for heaters or anything like that?â€
"There are electrical outlets around, I'm not positive what the law is on heaters, but we've got a little fire going here, and we've got another fire pit, we've used them both. I guess they had them going both while I was sleeping. So what ever people want to do, we will - you know - if you're not warm, ask someone and we'll figure out a way to get you warmer.â€
"If people don't know where your located, give them a idea of where this is.â€
"If you are heading out of downtown, it's to the right off of I-275 on the corner of Albany and Main. So I know we're not far from Howard/Armenia. Address 2102 W. Main St. Exit 42 off I-275. If people want to get involved.â€
"When are your general assemblies, When is your next meeting , other than an assembly?â€
"Well the idea of having a 24/7 Occupation, is you can get involved whenever you want to.â€

Hanging Wooden Wreath - Set of 4
Personalized Christmas Ornament
Made in Germany, you will see the skilled craftsmanship in each and every piece that will bring heirloom quality into your home. In this set of four German wood ornaments, you will receive one of each design that includes an angel, a reindeer, a Santa Claus and a snowman. These European playful but classic designs are ones that you will treasure upon your tree for their uniqueness. The traditional green wreath is tied with a red ribbon adorned with stars and each has a character in the center of the wreath. The sweet little angel has a star on top of her head and golden wings, reminiscent that she came straight from heaven. The reindeer wears a red and white striped scarf to stave off the cold and carries a twinkling star topped Christmas tree. The snowman clutches a snowman doll toy and a striped package. The man in red has a sack on his back filled with toys like a hobby horse and squeezes a teddy bear that is handmade with love in his workshop at the North Pole.
Dimensions: 3 3/4" x 3 1/2" each

During the physical exam, your doctor will check your lymph nodes for swelling and use a stethoscope to listen carefully to the sounds your lungs make when you breathe.
The most commonly used diagnostic tool for tuberculosis is a simple skin test. A small amount of a substance called PPD tuberculin is injected just below the skin of your inside forearm. You should feel only a slight needle prick.
Within 48 to 72 hours, a health care professional will check your arm for swelling at the injection site. A hard, raised red bump means you're likely to have TB infection. The size of the bump determines whether the test results are significant.
The TB skin test isn't perfect. Sometimes, it suggests that people have TB when they really don't. It can also indicate that people don't have TB when they really do.
A false-positive test may happen if you've been vaccinated recently with the bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine. This tuberculosis vaccine is seldom used in the United States but is widely used in countries with high TB infection rates.
False-negative results may occur in certain populations — including children, older people and people with AIDS — who sometimes don't respond to the TB skin test. A false-negative result can also occur in people who've recently been infected with TB, but whose immune systems haven't yet reacted to the bacteria.
Blood tests may be used to confirm or rule out latent or active tuberculosis. These tests use sophisticated technology to measure your immune system's reaction to TB bacteria. These tests may be useful if you're at high risk of TB infection, but have a negative response to the skin test, or if you received the BCG vaccine. Because these tests are relatively new, many health departments don't have them.
If you've had a positive skin test, your doctor is likely to order a chest X-ray. This may show white spots in your lungs where your immune system has walled off TB bacteria, or it may reveal changes in your lungs caused by active tuberculosis.
If your chest X-ray shows signs of tuberculosis, your doctor may take a samples of your sputum — the mucus that comes up when you cough. The samples are tested for TB bacteria. These bacteria can also be tested to see if they are resistant to the effects of medications commonly used to treat tuberculosis. This helps your doctor choose the medications that are most likely to work.

CD/LP/Track Review
George Gee Big Band: Settin' The Pace (2004)
Outstanding soloists on Gee's big band session include Howard Johnson, Robert Trowers, Joe Cohn, Lance Bryant, Walt Szymanski, and Carla Cook. The three vocal numbers that feature Cook offer a particularly affable impression. She fits this band quite well.
While a student at Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Gee had an opportunity to interview Count Basie for the school's radio program. This turning point in his career gave birth to his 17-piece big band and an eventual musical return to his native New York. "Mambo Inn" offers an in-depth look at the joyous celebration New York provides every day of the year. Gee is in his element here, and his studio session proves noteworthy. He's provided the means, the tools, and the right attitude for this band to take off. And they do.
Track Listing: Out of Nowhere; Settin' the Pace; Lover Come Back to Me; In a Sentimental Mood; Mambo Inn; Ready Now That You Are GG; Bass in Yo' Face; The Very Thought of You; When Your Lover Has Gone; Autumn Leaves; I Don't Want to Learn to Sing the Blues; Scrapple From the Apple.
Personnel: George Gee- leader; Frank Foster- conductor; Ed Pazant, Marshall McDonald- alto saxophone, flute; Michael Hashim- tenor saxophone, alto saxophone; Lance Bryant- tenor saxophone, flute, vocal on "I Don't Want to Learn to Sing the Blues;" Howard Johnson- baritone saxophone, bass clarinet; Charles Stephens, Robert Trowers, Eddie Bert- trombone; Jack Jeffers- bass trombone; Walt Szymanski, Steve Wiseman, Shawn Edmonds, Mark McGowan- trumpet, flugelhorn; Joe Cohn- guitar; Jon Cowherd- piano; Daryl Hall- bass; Willard Dyson- drums; Renato Thoms- percussion on "Mambo Inn;" Carla Cook- vocals on "Lover Come Back to Me," "The Very Thought Of You" and "Autumn Leaves."

A Dominican lawyer says a prostitute who once alleged she had sex with a New Jersey senator is now admitting the allegations are false.
The attorney, Vinicio Castillo Seman, told reporters at a Monday press conference that the 23-year-old woman says in a sworn statement that she not only "never went to bed with" U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez but she never met him.
Castillo has been accused of hosting outings on his yacht in which the senator used the services of prostitutes. He has strongly denied the allegations and said he would seek a criminal probe into the source of the reports.
In Washington, Menendez told reporters he looks "forward to seeing whatever the Dominican courts have that prove what I've said all along."

December 7, 2012Post-Sandy: Update from the Staten Island WaterfrontFor the Staten Island community—one of the hardest hit in Superstorm Sandy—recovery comes in small steps. The island's marine sector has fared no differently. After Folly, a 39-foot aluminum pilothouse sloop owned by John and Kerry Pears, was flung two boatyards away, a recovery crane dismasted it during lifting. Amid the confusion, the couple filed this report about the island's state of affairs since the storm struck the U.S. East Coast on October 29, 2012.

Looks great but once assembled is very rickety. Set it up with books and it sways like a ship. :(
Went together in about 1/2 hour. I had to have my husband muscle one back brace because the pegs didn't align exactly with the predrilled holes, but some muscle and a little wiggling got it done. I like the stand a lot.
I like this bbokcase for my cookbooks just the right size. but the color is off said walnut. but really a red cherry. it will do.
Paint is a flat black, I'll probably touch up with black gloss. It is wood, looks like plywood. The shelves are all solid wood, not compressed or particle board. It will support the weight of all my cookbooks without warping. Good solid piece at a lower end cost. Looks nice too. Easy to put together.
if you are planning on matching this with other walnut items get something else. this is sooo not the right color. does not match any of my walnut items. had to put this in the garage cause it doesn't match anything and I didn't want to mess with the hassle of returning it. the quality and look to it are not imprressive either. very cheap looking. get something else.
Precisely the shelves I wanted. Excellent price and service! Easy to assemble!
I was impressed with the durability of this product. It does not feel or look cheap. It holds a good amount of books. I was able to clear out two large boxes. It is also easy to assemble. I put it together in an hour which is record time for me. There are not too many tools. Everything you need is in the package.
Although these bookshelves are quite attractive the quality leaves a little to be desired. All holes didn't line up causing wood to split during construction and they are very light weight.
Very nice product and easy to put together. Very fast shipping to the door.
I needed some bookcases that would be easy to assemble, hold many books and looked elegant besides. This one looked like it would fit the bill, so I bought two. I was particularly pleased that they were not heavy and difficult to move, as some are. I am so happy with them that I am thinking of buying two more for my guestroom.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Charleston Catholic's baseball team has punched its ticket to the State Tournament with much frequency during Coach Bill Mehle's 17-year tenure.
And with plenty of experience returning to a team seeking its third straight tournament appearance, and eighth in the last 12 seasons, Mehle likes what he's seen so far.
"We feel very positive about the upcoming season," Mehle said. "We have six returning starters from last year's team, as well as five other kids with significant playing time.
"Our core group of guys is back that finished as state runners up in 2011, and made it back to the state tournament last year. They're a group of guys that are hard-nosed competitors and they know through their experience, the effort and discipline that it takes to gain the skills and confidence necessary to battle in the postseason."
The Irish's six returning regulars are seniors Rocco Wilcox (CF), Kiefer Hovorka (P/SS), Nelson McKown (1B), Andy Hoyer (OF/P), and Drew Cable (C), along with junior Connor Golden (INF).
That group returns with plenty of accolades with Wilcox and Hovorka earning first-team All-State honors last season, while McKown and Hoyer earned second-team honors. Golden garnered special honorable mention honors.
Wilcox (.479), Golden (.440), and McKown (.421) finished second, third and fifth in the Kanawha Valley in batting average leader standings last spring.
Hovorka and Hoyer are what Mehle calls the Irish's "two big-game pitchers."
Hoyer finished an area-best 11-2 last season, while Hovorka finished 7-2.
Five other players return after seeing action last season in seniors Jack Crockett (OF/DH) and Vincent Stricker (P/OF), and sophomore utility players Jordan Covelli, Thad Jameson, and Sam McKown.
"We know we need an everyday outfielder and another starting infielder," Mehle said. "The guys will be competing for positions and we'll experimenting to see what combination of players gives us the strongest defense and most offensive power.
"As long as we stay healthy and focused and get quality senior leadership throughout the season, we feel that we can be very competitive."
Here's a quick peek at the area's other Class AA and Class A programs. (Herbert Hoover was featured in Monday's Daily Mail):
Buffalo - Coach Jimmy Tribble welcomed 17 players to spring practice, including a slew of pitching arms to choose from.
"I think we're going to have some pitching, but I don't know if we're going to have that shutdown pitcher that we've had in the past," said Tribble, who guided the Bison to a 19-15 mark last year. "Buffalo has always somehow had an exceptional starting pitcher. This year we've got some arms, but we don't have what I call a 'shutdown guy'. It's going to be interesting to see how things play out."
Senior Levi Jordan returns to the hill for the Bison and will also man the shortstop position. He'll be joined by juniors Bradley Harris (P/3B), Aaron Lewis (P/IF), Blake Caplinger (P/1B) and Laythen Good (P/CF).
Sophomores Beau Whittington (P/IF) and Brandon Buntura (P/OF) will also see time on the mound.
Senior Matt Harrison will take over behind the plate for Buffalo, after a junior season as a utility infielder.
Harrison's play has been a pleasant surprise for Tribble.
"He moved to catcher and has worked his butt off in practice," said Tribble of Harrison. "He might just solidify this baseball team. He's jumped in there and I've been absolutely impressed with him behind the plate."
Senior Garrison Erwin will help provide stability in the outfield.
Tribble likes the potential that his current team has, but also looks forward to the much needed depth that is working its way through the Buffalo school system.
"The middle school has 35-40 kids out," the Buffalo coach said. "They're loaded up and there's also an absolutely good group of 10-11-12 year old kids coming up as well.

GERMANS generally like Barack Obama - 89 percent favored him over Republican Mitt Romney in 2012, according to a Pew Research Center survey. And he admires Germany back.
The president once asked an adviser to explain Germany's success in high-wage manufacturing, according to a Washington Post report by Zachary A. Goldfarb last year. The adviser's answer focused on German investment in workforce training and business-government cooperation.
"If they can do it," Obama replied, "we can do it."
No doubt those familiar features of the German "social market" economy help explain its dominance in Europe and its low, low 5.4 percent unemployment rate. But they date to the economic wunder of the '50s and '60s.
What really propelled Germany's economy to new heights was the package of market-oriented reforms launched by Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder 10 years ago.
Schroeder acknowledged that Germany's safety net had become a bit of a hammock. He restructured and reduced unemployment and welfare benefits while giving employers more freedom to hire and fire.
As it happens, Schroeder's plan reflected his admiration for U.S. capitalism, which, in his view, had surpassed Germany's in dynamism, flexibility and innovation.
But it triggered resistance within his own center-left Social Democratic Party - and from ordinary workers, one-eighth of whom were receiving some form of government aid by 2003.
The struggle probably cost Schroeder a third term in the 2005 elections.
History's verdict has been kinder. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development has given Schroeder's reforms much of the credit for Germany's "labour market miracle."
Which brings us back to Obama and the United States' economic predicament today.
That predicament has both cyclical and structural components: It is the result not only of a spectacular financial crisis but also of accumulated rigidities and inefficiencies.
In the United States, too, certain outdated or unwise policies discourage work and investment (Schroeder's impressions a decade ago notwithstanding).
Social Security Disability Insurance - SSDI - is a case in point.
Congress created this program in 1956 to help workers age 50 and older who were terminally ill or unable to work for the rest of their lives, but it has steadily expanded so that now it covers workers in their 20s with maladies such as back pain.
SSDI spending has tripled since 1970, relative to the economy's size, and it now approaches a full percentage point of gross domestic product. The program paid $135 billion to 8.8 million beneficiaries (plus 2.1 million spouses and children) in fiscal 2012.

On the Road
By Virginia Hughes | December 11, 2012 | 7 Comments
Some sad-yet-happy news: I'm leaving the people of LWON. Next week I'm launching my own blog at a new network hosted by National Geographic. I'll be sharing a web neighborhood with some amazing writers (and they'll post their own announcements soon). My blog, called Only Human, will be all about people — our genes, cells, brains, behaviors, history and culture.
The move has prompted me to reflect on the last two-plus years of my contributions here at LWON. I wrote some posts that turned out to be unexpectedly controversial, cathartic, and popular. I experimented in cartoony multimedia. My voice matured, maybe, and word counts swelled, definitely.
My favorite posts are the quirky detective stories, like how to find out whether Napoleon is really buried in Napoleon's tomb, or what disease killed Chopin, or in what country a mouse hopped aboard an otherwise sterile container ship.
In that spirit, I leave you with an offbeat tale about the Silk Road, Marco Polo, lamb fetuses, paleo-proteomics and a very old bible.
In 1685, a Belgian Jesuit named Philippe Couplet returned to Europe after nearly 30 years working as a missionary in China. It was not a modest homecoming. Couplet spent several years visiting various European rulers, showering them with golden goblets and elaborate embroideries, and crowing about his time away. He gave the Pope some 400 Christian books that had been translated into Chinese, and took a Chinese traveling companion to visit linguists at Oxford who were curious about the Chinese language. To the Grand Duke of Tuscany, Couplet presented a 4.5-inch square pocket bible wrapped in creamy yellow silk. The manuscript, he claimed, had been carried to China by none other than Marco Polo and was now, finally, returning home.
Four centuries earlier, in 1271, 17-year-old Marco Polo left his native Venice for a three-year, 6,000-mile adventure down the Silk Road to China. He stayed there as an ambassador for 17 years, then spent two years coming home by sea. Polo was just getting settled back when Venice went to war with Genoa, and he wound up in prison. There he shared his stories of the Orient with his cell mate, Rustichello da Pisa, who turned them into perhaps the most famous travel book of all time.
So you can understand why Couplet would have been proud to acquire the famed traveler's bible. He told the Italian Duke that he had received it from a native in the Nanking Province, who said it had been carefully passed down in his family since Polo's time. The book went into a big library in Florence, the Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana, and has been scrutinized by historians ever since. This summer, it was displayed* in Tiananmen Square for a Chinese government tribute to Marco Polo.
The book is falling apart. Most of its 456 parchment folios are full of holes and all stuck together. It was most likely one of the 10,000 bibles produced (by hand, painstakingly) in Paris between 1235 and 1300, and sold to theology students, priests and monks. But that seems to be the only solid claim about its history.
I fell down this rabbit hole about a week ago, when a search of a biomedical research database turned up a paper with a title that I couldn't help but click: "The Silk Road, Marco Polo, a bible and its proteome: A detective story." It was published in June, in the Journal of Proteomics, by a group of Italian chemists. The scientists were interested in one particular aspect of the bible's lore: that its ultra-thin pages were made from lamb fetuses.
I can't find evidence of any such claim, but I'll take the scientists' word for it, as they put a helluva lot of effort toward disproving it. Here's their gist of their skepticism:
…out of a single foetal lab skin only two pages (even of a pocket bible) can be produced. Considering that on average such bibles contained 600 pages and that 10,000 were produced over a 65-year span in Paris, this would have meant sacrificing 3 million lamb foetuses, a hecatomb hardly conceivable in the Middle Ages where food was at premium and often famine ravaged Europe. Farmers could not have possibly afforded it.
Being scientists, they sought proof. The director of the big library in Florence gave them a few fragments of the parchment, which they analyzed using several sophisticated methods that don't much interest me, except for a couple of the pictures:
The bottom line of these experiments is that the scientists were right to be skeptical. A mass spectrometry analysis turned up eight different proteins, all of which belong to the genus Bos taurus. The bible's pages came not from lamb skins, but calf skins.
I know what you're thinking, and I'm totally with you. That's the big detective story? Big deal! What about the real question of whether the damn book was actually Marco Polo's?
Science, unfortunately, doesn't provide any answers about that. But history might.
In 1955, a historian at the University of Notre Dame named Boleslaw Szcześniak published a paper in the Journal of the American Oriental Society. The title, "The Laurentian Bible of Marco Polo," isn't flashy, but the content is fascinating. Szcześniak takes a good look Philippe Couplet, that ostentatious missionary who carried the bible from China to Europe.
Couplet was, according to Szcześniak, a man of "rather sensational behavior," who "lacked the virtue of prudence and perhaps of modesty." Many details of Couplet's story don't make sense. He never gave the name of the man who supposedly gave him the book; he said the name of the town, Xam Xo, but there's no such place. The very idea of Marco Polo carrying a bible isn't very plausible, either. At that time, bibles were for clerical scholars, not adventurous teenagers. From Polo's own accounts of his travels and run-ins with non-Christians, he didn't seem particularly religious. "He did not deplore the idolators' spiritual fate, nor did he wish them converted to Christianity, neither did he condemn them to hell," Szcześniak writes. Polo did recount the famous story of the Three Magi, but he called it a Persian legend, told to him by local people, as if he had no idea that it also appears in the bible.
Here's a more plausible version of what happened to that beat-up pocket bible. The book is made in Paris in the middle of the 13th century. Within the next 50 or 100 years, a religious man, maybe a Franciscan friar, takes it to China on a missionary trip. It stays there for another 300 years, maybe in one family, maybe not, until Couplet finds it. Then he brings it back to Italy and concocts the grandiose Marco Polo story.
Why would he lie about it? Couplet was that type of guy, for one thing, but he may have also had a specific agenda. At that time, missionaries like Couplet "constantly looked for evidence which would help to establish an opinion that Christianity had enjoyed past success in its relations with China and the Far East," Szcześniak says. In other words, Marco Polo's bible would have been a symbol of the spread and lasting presence of Christianity among those exotic infidels.
It doesn't really matter, then, whether Marco Polo ever touched that bible — the book tells its own story. But for now, that's all it is, a story. Maybe history, like science, has the last word on nothing.
*This tidbit is stated in the Italian chemists' new paper, but I wasn't able to verify it elsewhere. Pretty much all of the historical information in this post, in fact, came from those Italians and the 1955 report in the Journal of the American Oriental Society.

No matter where you go to college, first year dorms are always small. Fairfield has four first year dorms with mostly double rooms and very minimal triples. Some floors are…
Dorms are not up to par. However they did build two new buildings that are probably 4 stars.…
It is really easy to make friends and form a community in the dorms. I highly recommend the Ignatian Residential College because it helped me to find friends and build…
The dorms are clean and well-cared for. I enjoyed living on campus and found that I was always surrounded by friends in the dorms. …
I communte, so am not familiar. …
The school's food is satisfactory in my opinion. There are so many options for food and drink outside the school also if you take a quick trip downtown where there are nice restaurants and pizza places. A popular choice is Primo Pizza, which you are probably going to encounter a lot of at certain events and clubs. Within the campus there are a few hotspots like Einstein's Bagels where student congregate to get their morning coffee and bagels, and The Stag which is just like any fast food joint basically. (I like their calzones.)
Read MoreThere are several food options on campus: the main cafeteria, the university cafe (pastries, coffee, sandwiches), a grill-type restaurant, and an on-campus bar/pub. The food is overall good-tasting, but not very healthy, although healthy options do exist. In addition, the food is generally expensive.
Read MoreThe dining hall is okay, but it has the same selection everyday which is boring. The stag is good too, but after four years, it gets very very boring.
Read Morenot bad
Read MorePersonally, I do not like the food. There is one dining hall in the campus center. There are several different option which is nice such as deli bar, grill, vegetarian option, salad bar, soups, stir fry bar, and entree. I really just don't think the food is good quality. I think many would agree. I often feel so bloated after I eat there and I am starving in an hour or less after all of my meals because it's all empty carbs. I always bought tons of snacks and cereal and milk to keep in my room because I was often hungry. I knew it was this food right away because after coming home for the summer and eating the food cooked here, I was no longer bloated and stayed full until the next meal of the day.
Read MoreThe food is moderate, but better than most college cafeterias. Sometimes the choices are few, but there is a stir-fry station with many ingredients each night. The dining hall is what you make of it.
Read MoreAgain leaving home will be hard because you have to leave mom and dad home cooked meals but after awhile the food is tolerable.
Read MoreIt is good at first but after a while it gets quite too repetitive, they seem to only change it up when there are parents visiting, etc.
Read MoreFood and dining is a bit drab at times. Like at any college, it gets repetitive after a while. Pizza and cheeseburgers are always available, though an eye should be kept on the stir-fry station, which offers a nice change from the usual.
Read MoreThe freshmen are trying to integrate Greek life into the school, but as of right now, they don't have any besides the standard Honors clubs.
Read MoreAs a Jesuit University, Fairfield University does not have Greek Associations.

text: In recent years the Mid-Atlantic DI club league has been headed up by PAC and Norfolk. But this year could be the most wide open since 2008. With NOVA working in some new talent, and Schuylkill River still moving up, challengers will have to have noticed that both PAC and Norfolk will be without some very experienced leaders. With the other teams expected to be improved, this could be a competition where the first-place team could well have two, or even three, losses. But PAC and Norfolk are still probably the two best teams in the league, and their problems are all fixable. Their issues are mainly those related to leadership, experience, and cohesion. Well all of those things tend to get better with time. So if you're going to knock down these two, you're going to need to do it early, and then you can put them under pressure. This week, the improving Schuylkill River Exiles play PAC, and the always unpredictable NOVA play Norfolk. Those are perfect games for the favorites to get upended. If Potomac and the Blues win impressively, we may have to throw out all that talk about this being a wide open league. This could be wide open, and it will be weekend #1 which will tell us just how wide.
