Key Features of English 101 and English 115
Writing courses at Xavier University serve two aims: first, to introduce students to writing as a subject of scholarly inquiry grounded in rhetorical theory and knowledge about the writing process, and second, to help students develop writing skills that they will use in their college courses and beyond?in their personal, professional, and public lives.
The Writing Program at Xavier University consists of the following courses: English 101 (English Composition) and English 115 (Rhetoric). Most students take either English 101 or English 115 as freshman, and only these students should register for English 115: English majors and minors; students enrolled in an honors program (University Scholars; Philosophy, Politics, and the Public; and Honors Bachelor of Arts); and students whose degree programs require English 115.
Both courses fulfill a core requirement at Xavier, and there is not a system for students to test out of the requirement. However, students may receive credit for English 101 with a score of four or five on the Advanced Placement English Language and Composition test. Students must earn a D in the course to fulfill the core requirement.
Goals, Means, and Outcomes for English 101
All elements of English 101--course syllabi, assignments, and classroom activities--stem from the program goals, means and outcomes. The first three goals span the four areas outlined in the WPA Outcomes Statement for First-Year Composition: rhetorical knowledge; writing processes; critical thinking, reading, and writing; and knowledge of conventions. And in keeping with the mission of Xavier University, the fourth goal emphasizes the ethical and societal ends of a Jesuit rhetorical education. The means describe the practices required to meet the goals and outcomes.
Goal 1: Rhetorical Knowledge and Writing Processes
Students will be writers who have developed an effective writing process guided by the rhetorical elements of audience, purpose, and cultural context.
Outcomes for Goal 1:
By the end of the semester, students should demonstrate the ability to:
1) Respond appropriately to different rhetorical situations, varying their approach, format, and structure in recognition of the shifting needs of audience, purpose, and context.
2) Demonstrate familiarity with concepts describing writing processes (invention, drafting, revising, editing) and use them effectively and efficiently in their own writing process.
3) Articulate the rhetorical choices they have made.
Goal 2: Critical Thinking, Reading, and Writing
Students will understand writing as an art that helps them solve problems analytically, creatively, and rhetorically and as a means of inquiry, thinking, communication, and argumentation.
Outcomes for Goal 2:
By the end of the semester, students should demonstrate the ability to:
4) Understand and use rhetorical vocabulary to analyze writing by others and themselves.
5) Integrate their own ideas with those of others.
6) Explore an issue or question raised by another author and respond to it or challenge it in the service of developing their own view.
Goal 3: Knowledge of Conventions
Students will be writers who understand the role and use of information.
Outcomes for Goal 3:
By the end of the semester, students should demonstrate the ability to:
7) Observe the rules of academic honesty, intellectual property, and citation style(s).
8) Use rhetorically appropriate information from academic and popular sources to corroborate, expand, and alter personal knowledge.
Goal 4: Writing in Community
Students will be writers who understand the power and ethical responsibility that come with the production of written discourse.
Outcomes for Goal 4:
By the end of the semester, students should demonstrate the ability to:
9) Engage responsibly with topics that have ethical, moral, and cultural meaning.
10) Acknowledge and show respect for different views/opinions in their writing.
English 101 instructors help students meet the program goals and outcomes through these means. Evidence of these means should be present on the course syllabus, in major projects, and in activities:
1) Completion of at least four major projects that involve textual analysis and/or production in a variety of genres for a variety of audiences. These major projects must include rhetorical analysis, argument that responds to counterarguments, and research-based writing; students must write for academic and public audiences.
2) Completion of the Common Assignment during the last three weeks of the term.
3) Production of 7,500 - 10,500 words of polished writing (or 15,000 - 21,000 words including drafts).
4) Frequent commentary on successive drafts of writing projects by peers and instructors.
5) Classroom instruction including lectures, class discussions, collaborative learning and writing, guided writing practice, and providing feedback on peers' writing.
6) Individual writing conferences with the instructor.

Twin sisters and their brother make up the Wednesday's Child sibling set for today. They're too young to be living without a permanent family, so we're hoping someone watching now will step forward to adopt.
At the park, Arlee and his two sisters found no lack of youthful enthusiasm for the most simple playthings... 6-yr old Arlee blowing bubbles... 4 year old Zanay with football, and 4 year old Yanay with soccer... Or is it Zanay with soccer, and Yanay with football...
I confess I frequently got them mixed up... But those who know them well claim they are very much individuals..
"There's a strong bond, they, uh, Arlee is the older brother, but Zanay is kinda bossy (laughs)...she runs the show," admits Constance, an Adoption Recruiter for the County's Division of Family Services.
While trying to explain the finer points of a yo-yo to the twin sisters, I came to find out that these kids are determined and resilient.....despite a disappointing childhood.
"The strange and mysterious thing about kids is that they are flexible, they're very flexible, and that's why it's so important to keep them together," says Constance.
Right now the two sisters are living in a separate foster home from their brother... Not perfect, but they're doing well.
"Yes, they're doing well in school....and they're in a stable environment... Both of them are in strong foster families right now, and they see each other a lot... And that helps...that helps the stability," explains Constance.
These three need a loving home as soon as possible.
"They're adorable, they're little, they need a lot of love, they need a strong family, they need a committed family, they need structure, they need somebody to take 'em right now," adds Constance.
Arlee, Zanay and Yanay are precious...and free 'n' clear for adoption.
To begin the approval process now, call the local office of the Adoption Exchange at 436-6335...

Over the years WLBT News has brought you hundreds of stories showing people living in squalid conditions in local apartments and rental homes.
In most cases, many of the apartments have numerous problems involving mold, shoddy plumbing, ceiling and sewage leaks, as well as dangerous conditions in which railings and steps are loose or nonexistent.
In the latest case this week, we showed you one complex in which David Kenney brought you this:
"These are pictures off the Internet enticing renters to the park at Riverside Apartments. Just look at that blue lake and the neatly manicured landscaping . Turns out those pictures were photo shopped," said David Kenney.
"There are rats, there are snakes. I've seen a feline cat with a rat in her mouth eating it on the front of my steps," said one resident who did not want to be identified.
Granted, renters could also take more responsibility.
But, city inspectors and HUD need to do a better job making sure complex owners and managers do more than just collect rent.
We're going to keep looking at this growing problem and see who's at fault and what needs to be done.
That's my Point of View.

Twins focus on politics of new park
Upcoming vote on sales tax among club's areas of interest
MINNEAPOLIS -- Twins president Dave St. Peter is busy these days.St. Peter and the Twins continue to work on multiple fronts during the early processes of forming club's new open-air ballpark. Team officials are working toward a final design while discussing and identifying issues with the recently formed Minnesota ballpark authority, the Hennepin County Board and Minneapolis' light-rail transit system. "There are a lot of balls in the air," St. Peter said. "A lot of folks wondered why we can't open until 2010, and this is why. There are just a lot of things that need to be dealt with. And to do this in a responsible way, we have to be diligent on the front end and attending to these details." Members of the Twins organization recently completed a six-city ballpark tour, with stops in St. Louis, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, San Diego and San Francisco. St. Peter said that the discussions with officials from each club were the most valuable part of each trip. A final design for the Twins ballpark isn't expected until early 2007. But the immediate issue on the mind of the Twins organization is the successful passing of the Hennepin County sales tax to help finance the downtown Minneapolis ballpark. The sales tax will be discussed in public forums next week before the Hennepin County Board votes on imposing the tax. The 0.15 percent sales tax (three cents on a $20 purchase) would exclude clothing, food, medical supplies and automobiles. The county's share of financing the ballpark is $350 million for construction and infrastructure costs, while the Twins will contribute $130 million. The club will also pay $1 million a year for ballpark improvements and $250,000 a year in contributions to amateur sports. Three public hearings are scheduled for Aug. 22-24, and the board's final vote on the sales tax is slated for Aug. 29. "Public input has been essential to this debate every step of the way," St. Peter said. "We take the hearings next week very seriously. "We still remain very confident that the Hennepin County Board will continue to vote in favor of levying the tax and building the ballpark in conjunction with the Twins." The following is a list of the public hearings scheduled for next week: Aug. 22, 5-7 p.m. CT
Board Room, 24th Floor, Hennepin County Government Center, 300 S. 6th St., Minneapolis Aug. 23, 6-8 p.m. CT
Council Chambers, Bloomington Civic Plaza, 1800 W. Old Shakopee Road Aug. 24, 6-8 p.m. CT
Council Chambers, Maple Grove Government Center, 12800 Arbor Lakes Parkway Residents interested in testifying at the hearings should call the County Board Clerk's Office at (612) 348-3081 or e-mail the clerk. Those who would like to testify but are unable to attend a hearing may also may their comments to the clerk.

Feels like someone should have mentioned the various talents of 19-year-old Bryce Harper, but I guess I don't mind being the first. Here's a throw that didn't get a runner, with a .gif after the jump.
Was he out?
Heck, I don't know. Probably. But the wily umpire blocked the camera. It was close enough to not blame the ump for blowing it. Still, man, that throw.
Edit: another angle

PEORIA, Ill. -- The Boston bombings hit especially close to home for a Peoria Rivermen who just recently joined the team at the end of the season.
Rivermen left wing Marshall Everson is a current student at MIT and he lives just 10 minutes away from Watertown.
Everson had a friend near the finish line at the Boston Marathon injured from the explosions.
He was also home at the time of the police chase.
"We heard some explosions from our door," said Everson. "We were told most of them were controlled. From what we know, what we were told by the school there were some devices thrown out of their car during the chase and the police took care of them through controlled explosions."
Everson said his friend was released from the hospital the night of the bombings.
He plans to return to Boston to finish up school now that the hockey season is over.

Hot Yoga is practicing yoga in a heated room. Originally it was done to simulate the atmospheric conditions in Calcutta, India where this lineage of yoga began. Today, we realize that the benefits of the heat during practice are great, here are a few to mention:
The room similates the body during fever when fighting infection; the body temperature rises then T-cell's from the lymphatic system are called to action; this improves our immune system. Yoga helps to be the "heart" of the lymphatic system moving lymphatic fluids throughout the body to fight infection, fungus, removal of cancerous cells; this is especiallly true during inversions.

So, I'm 6'0'' and 160 lbs. I started casual lifting about 2 weeks ago. I have a few questions that I would like to be addressed individually if anyone has the time or knowledge I've been wondering about these questions for some time and have made a list so I can put them all in one thread and get some information. Here we go.
- The size and strength between my left arm and right arm is tremendous. My right arm is quite bigger than my left, and I can feel it when I'm lifting weights too. I can literally double the reps with my right arm and it's mentally frusterating because my left arm is so weak. Has anyone experienced this and what did you do to even out the size/strength in both arms?
- Is working out 7 days a week too much? 6 days? 5 days? What is the most time you should spend at the gym without hurting yourself or overworking yourself?
- I am 6'0'' and 160 lbs...obviously that is pretty skinny. I've heard a few people tell me to pack on fat (eat fattening foods, more specifically fast food) to gain weight quicker. My workout buddy has told me to eat as LITTLE fat as possible. I'm going for a cut look, but I also want to put on some weight as quick as possible. Fat or no fat?
-Abs excercises? I am trying to put on a 6 pack, but the only workouts I know for abs are sit ups and pushdowns (Where someone pushes your legs toward the ground and you try not to let your feet touch the ground) Are there any ab excercises that wil produce more and quicker results than these?
- I hate eating vegetables. I know they are a huge need and necessity in your diet, but I really hate eating them. I do however like the V8 juice that they sell in stores. Each bottle of juice is supposedly "3 servings of vegetables". Could I get by on drinking a bottle of V8 a day and not have to worry about eating those nasty things?
Thanks for help ahead of time, I look forward to hearing some answers.
Hey! Welcome to the forum! Ill answer as best I can
1) Yes its common for there to be differences in strength and size between each arm. To help your left arm catch up, do what your left arm can do on both left and right for all excersises. Your concern now is to even them out, this is the best way. If you use heavier weights in one arm than the other youll always have one arm bigger than the other.
2) For a person starting out 3-4 days a week is enough. Find a good routine here like WBB1 http://www.wannabebig.com/article.php?articleid=25
I used that routine 6-7 months ago and ive gained 20 pounds in a span of 2.5 months ( I was underweight like you are now so weight will come easy). My deadlift went up from 0 to 175 in that period of time. Very good routine!
3) Fat is essential in putting on muscle. Certain growth hormones are made of fat. Get 1-2 grams of protein per lb of body weight, get your essential fatty acids, some carbs, and the rest can be what ever you want so you eat enough calories to grow
4) Try doing weighted ab crunches, they seem to work very well.
5) Vegetables contain phytochemical and nutrients. V8 juice isnt very healthy in terms of sodium content. I suggest taking a daily multivitamin.
Remember, lift heavy and eat alot!

Many people on here will have a lot more valid opinion than me, but I'll try to tackle some of these...
- That's quite possible, but you did say you just started lifting two weeks ago, and casually. I say, go hard, stay consistent, and over time, it will even out. I'm not sure why exactly your right arm would be that much bigger than your left, but it should even out eventually. As for mental frustration, like everything, a lot of problems exist in your mind. You may notice that your right arm is bigger than your left, so you have it set in your mind that your right arm will be that much stronger. Try to overcome that mental obstacle.
- I guess it would depend what you mean by "working out." If you mean lifting heavy weight, then yes, I would imagine so. I'm sure you could go 7 days a week mixing lifting and cardio, but strictly lifting probably won't give the body enough time to rest and grow. As for the amount of time you spend in the gym, I don't think there is a set time. You should construct a workout with the right amount of sets and reps, determine your time you'd like to take in between sets, and that's how much time you'll be spending. Time doesn't necessarily correlate to results, so don't think you have to spend more time to see better results.
- I wouldn't necessarily say you'd have to have as little as fat as possible, but a clean bulk is probably better than consuming food that is bad for you. It's kind of hard to go for a cut look if you're wanting to bulk up.
- Putting on a 6 pack is also hard if you want to put on a lot more weight and not look so skinny. I don't know if there is any super exercise for abs that puts on quick results. There are plenty of ab exercises you can google though.
- I'm not sure about the V8, but I would imagine it is preferrable to actually consume the vegetables as opposed to drinking them. I am just guessing, but I would think that if you are consuming vegetables in a liquid form, you're more prone to quickly excrete the beneficial vitamins and nutrients as opposed to consuming them in solid form. The best thing to do is learn to like things like vegetables. Again, mental. Train yourself to enjoy them, or at least stomach them.
Hopefully if I misinformed at all, someone will be so kind as to correct me. Hope this helps.

I would think its easier to abosrb nutrients if its in a liquid
i had the same problem with my right arm being stronger than my left and i evened it out by using dumbbells
when i work out i have monday wednesday and friday for lifting and tuesday and thursday for cardio and thats it.
Your right arm may always be a little stronger than your left. Just use dumbbells in the meantime, and it should (Mostly) even out.
As for diet, stay away from fast food. Sure, you could put on some pounds by eating that garbage, but going clean will make it much easier when you go on a cut later on. As for fat, if you want mass, GO FOR IT! Easy calories there. Peanut butter, cheese, whole milk. Fat doesn't make you fat. Lack of exercise and excess calories do. Fat's essential to your diet. That, and it's tasty
Here's your ab routine:
3x10 Weighted sit-ups once a week. If that gets too easy, up the weight. If you run out of weight to use, do them on a decline.
Ab definition is all diet. Most all of us want nice abs.
BUT you're also wanting to pack on mass. Well, it's going to be hard to do both at the same time.
So set a goal. If you want to be 200 pounds, set that as your goal. Once you get to 200 pounds, go on a cut until you can see your abs. This way, you'll be bigger AND have some sexy abs, as opposed to being a 6 foot twig with no muscle and a little bit of ab definition.
Forever Goal: Strength
Weightlifting sucks. I just like to lift heavy things.
I want to have more of a cut look than a mass look, if that makes sense.
i24.photobucket.com/albums/c31/taxed_upon/willposey.jpg (it wont let me post a link so you'll have to add the www or whatever before it)
That is basically the body style I am trying to achieve, maybe with a more defined chest. Does this mean I have to get up to 200 lbs and then cut and get my weight down to 185? Or can I just eat less fattening foods and build muscle up to 185 without having to bulk first?
Also, I was looking at the suggested workout routine and I notice that on some excercises, it seems like it isn't enough of a workout or not enough excercises to actually workout a muscle group. Example:
Flat Barbell Bench Press : 2 x 6-8 reps
Low Incline Dumbbell Press : 2 x 6-8 reps
Dips : 2 x 6-8 reps
So 3 excercises, 2 sets each, with 6-8 reps per set. Is that really enough of a workout on chest for a whole week?

juice plus....is something you can get to avoid eatting veggies...this will give you intake of fruits and veggies but check em out
If you want to prevail
Ignore the known road
and BlaZE your own trail
A little off topic but within the same idea...
I'm right handed and my right arm is stronger than the left but when I flex my biceps, my left arm is noticeably larger. It was always the opposite before I started lifting. I'm assuming they will even out eventually.
Did the left get bigger to compensate for being weaker from the start?

sexican dont have the mentality of "staying away from fatty foods" because fat is essential for growth. Your mind set should be in terms of calories, not fat.
And yes its enough training for a newbie. Youll be suprised how many people out there over work their muscles.
As well because your new, every week in every excersise you should out do what you did before. You should only be able to do 6-8 reps of that excersise, if you can do more, raise the weight. In other words, make those 6-8 reps count by going all out (with good form). Make it a quality workout.
I was skeptical at first but my gains were very good, and yours will be too if you eat alot (including fat), sleep, and lift hard.
I disagree.
You DO want to add calories but you'll have to cut for a longer period of time if you eat a lot of fat.
Eat the leanest meat you can find. Lots of calories, protein and very little fat.

Lord.... eat vegetables. They are good and good for you. You could take some pills and drink V8, but you ARE NOT going to be getting all of the phytonutients that you could be and you will eliminating a lot of soluble and insoluble fiber from your diet. I'm sure there are innumerable benefits to actually eating healthy foods rather than eating crap and popping pills, but I'm not a dietician - do a google search and I'm sure you'll get hundreds of sites.

A child does not learn to squat from the top down. In other words, he does not suddenly make a conscious decision one day to squat. Actually, he is squatting one day and make the conscious decision to stand. Squatting precedes standing in the developmental sequence. This is the way a child's brain learns to use the body as the child develops movement patterns. Therefore, a child is probably crawling, rocks back into a squatting position with the back completely relaxed and the hips completely flexed, and stands when he has enough hip strength. This approach makes a lot of sense and can be applied to relearning the deep squat movement if it is lost. -Gray Cook

Bonnie has this weird boyfriend named Ralph whose idea of a good time is to hang around shopping centers, where he likes to greet customers - "Good evening, ma'am, that's a lovely dress you're wearing" - then shake hands, answer questions and do a commercial for some product or other. And when he talks, you listen: Ralph is an eight-and-a-half-foot robot. He and Bonnie Large, a slender but well-organized five feet, five and a half, both work for Hill-Davies Productions in Sherman Oaks, California. The company - sometimes with the assistance of name entertainers and vaudeville acts - puts on shows to entertain businessmen and help them market their wares. Bonnie's dates with Ralph - who speaks and moves with the help of a concealed accomplice who operates the remote-control buttons and the microphone - are but a small part of what she does for Hill-Davies. She handles their secretarial chores and makes occasional out-of-town trips to help set up shows. And she performs, too - as a dancer, a model and a "straight girl" for magician Chuck Jones. In their act, Bonnie floats through space - not with the greatest of ease, perhaps, but convincingly - and in another routine, she gets sawed in half. After getting herself back together, Bonnie hops into her Beetle for the 45-minute drive to her apartment in Alhombra. "It's nothing fancy," she says, but it's distinguished by the numerous antiques Bonnie has collected at local thift shops and "swap-ins"; among them are a four-poster bed and a pre-1900 Singer sewing machine. A confirmed animal lover who once worked as a veterinarian's assistant, Bonnie also keeps a variety of pets: two great Danes, three cats and a gopher snake who stays safely locked in his tank. Because her job is as demanding as it is exhilarating, Bonnie has had to shelve plans to take night courses in shorthand and industrial drawing this year. She'd like to do more modeling, though. In 1969 she was a finalist in the competition for the court of the Rose Queen but was disqualified when the officials learned that she was too young. "I'd been told that they make exceptions," she says, "but they didn't make one in my case." Now Bonnie hopes that her Playmate appearance will inspire some modeling offers. We'd bet on that - but, of course, we're a little biased.

A Chicago baseball icon, Moose Skowron grew up on the Northwest Side and starred at Weber High School. The former Yankee and white Sox Star enjoyed one of baseball's most memorable careers.
There has been concern lately about Skowron after a recent health scare, but we're happy to report, at the age of 80, the legend is as full of life and personality as ever. A visit with Skowron is like taking a trip into baseball history. His home is filled with memorabilia from a stellar career that began with the Yankees in 1954.
The stories never end, like the time Skowron dressed in drag for a party, egged on by long-time pal and legend Mickey Mantle, the greatest player Skowron says he ever saw.
"To Moose, my best wishes," Skowron read off memorabilia. "We came up at the same time and it was one of the best things in my life. Thanks a lot, Mickey Mantle. ...I treasure that picture. It does mean a lot to me. He was a heck of a guy and a very good friend of mine."
How about the Yankee Clipper? Well, Skowron knew him well. Joe DiMaggio had retired by the time Skowron came along, but he was a frequent visitor to Yankee Stadium, as was his wife, a certain Marilyn Monroe.
"Me and Tony Kubek went out with him and his wife, Marilyn. I'll never forget that day. I shaved four times. I was so excited to meet this lady and she was a beautiful woman," Skowron said.
Skowron even made appearances on the Ed Sullivan show, a hugely popular network variety show of the era, and when he played for the Dodgers, had a bit part in an episode of the iconic Mr. Ed show.
Skowron even played Las Vegas for a week with his fellow Dodgers back in 63. Skowron was Big.
"We sang songs! We did a hell of a good job. We got good pay, too. Two shows a night we were sold out," Skowron said.
At the age of 80, his wit is sharp as are his memories, although Skowron's life is a little slower now.
He still makes appearances for the White Sox and hangs out with his family and his trusty dogs, Mickey and Maris, happy to be alive after battling lung cancer, a battle he believes he's won.
"I've been there the last six weeks and I'm doing great. Another two weeks and I'm done. I beat it," Skowron said.
Skowron still proudly wears his World Series ring from 1961, the greatest team he ever saw.
It was that year that Mantle, Roger Maris and Moose, the three M's, combined for 143 homers, still the record for a trio from one team.
His greatest thrill was the 1958 World Series. Game 7 and Skowron delivered the key blow, a three-run homer off of Lew Burdette to cement the win. Skowron, in fact, played in eight World Series in his first 10 years in the Major League.
His eight World Series home runs is good for seventh place on the all-time list, trailing only: Mantle (Mickey), Babe Ruth, Yogi Berra, Duke Snider, Lou Gehrig and Reggie Jackson.
Not bad for, the son of a garbage-man from the Northwest Side.
Today, Skowron is a fixture on the South Side where he has been a community relations representative for the White Sox since 1999.

Honey Tree Stables
"Our home away from home..."
Located on 160 picturesque acres, Honey Tree Stables gives Xavier's Equestrian Team access to first rate amenities. The property is just gorgeous and has become a place of peace for the team. Far removed from the Cincinnati city life that students are around while at school, Honey Tree's Oxford OH location gives the team a chance to decompress.
The team carpools out to honey tree at least two times a week for private and group lessons. The barn is located 40 minutes away from campus, and although this may seem far the drive is totally worth it. These hours spent at Honey Tree give the team a chance to forget their worries of school and do what they love most: ride.
For the warmer months of the year the team enjoys riding along the scenic trails that Honey Tree offers them. The property also has a massive hunter derby field where Coach Sarah has set up a series of natural obstacles for the team to conquer. Sarah believes that if a rider is able to control their horse in a field of grass, then that rider will see the ride in an arena as a walk in the park. Check out this video of Honey Tree's riding trails!
During the Winter months Honey Tree has a large indoor arena with a viewing area for spectators. Connected directly to the tack room and aisles of stalls the indoor is a high class riding arena. This indoor arena sets HTS apart from surrounding barns in the area who do not have indoors, and for this Xavier is incredibly grateful to have access to such a high functioning facility. Check out this video that offers and inside look to HTS' facilities!

Caribbean low gets upgrade from National Hurricane Center
By John Nelander
The Caribbean low pressure system strengthened slightly on Friday south of Jamaica. (Credit: NOAA)
The tropical system in the Caribbean became a little better organized Friday and earned the tag Invest 94L by the National Hurricane Center. Forecasters gave the disturbance a 20 percent chance of becoming Tropical Storm Arlene over the next two days.
It's too early to say where the system may eventually go. High pressure building into the southeastern U.S. should keep the low stationary south of Jamaica at least through the weekend. Late Friday afternoon, 94L was plotted at 16.1N 77.3W, 755 south-southeast of Palm Beach.
In its afternoon advisory, the NHC said: "Heavy rains could cause flash flooding and mudslides over portions of Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica and extreme southeastern Cuba over the next day or two."
Wind shear, which usually prevents tropical systems from forming, has fallen into the moderate range and is forecast to continue decreasing over the next several days, according to hurricane blogger Jeff Masters at Weather Underground.
"This should allow the disturbance … to increase in organization, though it will take many days for it to approach tropical depression status since it is so large and poorly organized," Masters said Friday afternoon.
"The last two runs of the NOGAPS model have developed the disturbance into a tropical depression or storm by early next week, with the system moving northwards into Jamaica, the Cayman Islands, and eastern Cuba. The other major models do not show the disturbance developing during the coming week."

KHQ.COM - The Central Valley Bear Boosters Club of CVHS wishes to keep the legacy of Jansen Badinger alive, creating the "Jansen's Door" Foundation. The fund is intended to provide short term financial assistance to students who attend CV High School; students who are in need and might otherwise not be able to participate in an activity, event, or have the necessary supplies for their studies. "Every person matters; any person can make a difference. Let's open our hearts...just like Jansen opened the door."
This vision embodies what Jansen stood for; and how he lived his life. The CV High School graduating classes of 1976-1980 are hosting a "Buy Your Way Home" softball game on August 10th, from 10:00am-3:00pm at Central Valley High School.
Fans and players will have the opportunity to pledge money to advance runners around the bases, score runs— or perhaps buy an 'out' (we can see many teens doing this to their participating parents).
All funds raised from this event will be donated directly to Jansen's Door. The Bear Boosters Club will also be selling concessions; in which proceeds are donated to the fund.
A web site and blog page is currently in design; but please visit the Central Valley Bear Boosters Facebook page; www.facebook.com/centralvalleybearboostersclub for more information on this event.

My passion for the photography come up when I was a child and during last ten years the passion for travelling around the world, is arisen as well.
I love to visit countries like Africa, India, Asia, where ancient and tribal cultures are still alive and touchable. Making photos in these places is very often forbidden or very dangerous, but staying close to them, so different, or looking at a simple smile by a child, as a token of friendship, is always a great experience.

I love designing for live music. I think it goes back to my start in this crazy business, running lighting in bars like Providence, RI's infamous Living Room. That same summer, I got my first taste of lighting by working as an electrician at Trinity Repertory. It all took root immediately.
It seems funny now, somehow. The club stuff I did I saw as something that was steady, with reliable cash. Belly up to a Leprecon LP1000 two-scene preset and run 24 PARs. That console had more pitchers of beer spilled on it than most fraternity rugs, but you could count on at least half of it to be running predictably. Theatre was what I did for love; music, for money. It's still that way upon reflection. But my love for designing live music has grown very large.
I quickly learned that designing live music for concerts was very visceral; it demanded a Zen-like flow. I loved it. There's no question in my mind that running shows live is very much related to jamming directly with the band — incredibly gratifying stuff.
All of this is a long-winded way of saying that I was very happy to get the call from LeAnn Rimes this summer with an invitation to design her new production. It was an addition to a summer workload that already included designing a very large new production for Nickelback. It meant that I would be living on buses for much of June and July, with back-to-back production processes. But I took it on with relish.
In this case, I was joining a formula that included Steve Fallon, who has been designing lighting for Rimes for some time. Decisions were quickly made with regard to the scenic construct. Risers would be faced with LEDs. We would also include three "deconstructed," irregular panels of Barco MiTrix upstage.
The placement of the MiTrix offered itself immediately to scenic content. I wanted to give the production real form through some graphic structure. Some of it felt right as Las Vegas-style light wall elements. But it was a big priority for Rimes that the design reflect femininity and warmth, in addition to straight-out dazzle. I incorporated this in several ways. I referred to a garden motif in some of it, with content constructed of organic elements. I wanted a verdant backdrop but shaped and stylized — topiary by Gaia, if you will. I began with some vector graphics of vines and leaves that I cooked up in Adobe Illustrator. I brought these "hero" elements into After Effects, where I created a 3D composition. By converting these Illustrator graphics to layers defined as paths, I was able to use After Effects to trace their edges with light and animate their color values and scale values without losing any detail. By adding some other stock leaf elements and a final illuminated backdrop to receive the shadows of the garden layers, I created my paradise in a convincingly dimensional way.
The MiTrix was really bright and very coherent — actually, surprisingly coherent — and it moved really well. This was a must, logistically. We had to serve a very tight truck pack and also be able to play in a wide variety of venues. Showrooms, sheds, rodeos, theatres — there was a bit of everything on the schedule.
Rimes has intense focus in her work. The new album, Family, resulted from a process where she took a great deal of control over the producing aspects and the writing. The album enjoys a rich influence from Delta blues, with gumbo-soaked banjo riffs, and phenomenal slide steel guitar. The opening number, "Nothing Better to Do," is about serving time for crimes of passion. The music video was really well done, set in prison, with a fantastic dance number and some very cool shadow play elements with searching beams of light. Rimes wanted an intro developed that would lead us into this scenario and crank up audience excitement. It was evident and natural that we begin with a prison siren's familiar cranking wail in the dark and then moving lights searching the audience. Add a stark vector graphic of a chain link fence and strobing beacon lights, and it provided a perfectly silhouetted environment for the band to enter. A huge downbeat and then — bam — sweep all to center, revealing our star, and cue the intro sequence for the music video.
I am not a fan of using music videos in concerts. A music video is a very different thing from the content created to impart atmosphere. Having huge replicas of themselves on screens behind them can devalue the veracity of the performers being right there, and it comes dangerously close to watching television for the audience. It needs to be approached with caution. I discussed this extensively with Rimes, and she agreed — pretty much. "But there were just these two numbers…"
In those cases, it worked beautifully, so you can take all that drivel for what it's worth. The bleached color correction gave the "Nothing Better to Do" footage a stark prison vibe, and the imagery had the perfect grit of a '50s or '60s Southern gothic. Plus, in my view, it gave the audience a nice, supersized dose of Rimes right away. It gave us permission to leave that for a while and go scenic with the content in the following numbers. We made a conscious decision to omit IMAG from the show. I approach IMAG with the same caution I do music videos. In big venues, I understand the logistical need, and I'm not unsympathetic to using the power of a great talent's face at supersize to punctuate the flow and drive audience energy. Having a live, cued, and operated camera rig was financially difficult. Using lipstick cams was a possibility that we explored pretty vigorously early on. But my thought was that the music was really so rich and textured that I wanted to put it in a beautiful scenic jewel box and reveal it without the overt slam of IMAG.
One of the things I do for most shows in the initial stages is to develop a color/atmosphere progression chart, which, in very simple blocks of color, reveal the palette that the show is developing. One of Rimes' other priorities (and a sensible one at that) was that all elements needed to develop in the show with an arc and rhythm. My little chart served me well in this respect. I could get a macro view of a show as it moved from big flash to subdued hues and then on into the heat. Thoroughly embedding the content and lighting together from moment one is obviously critical.
Fallon was no small part of this. The irascible Irishman was wielding a set of Vari-Lite VL2500 units that spaced around the perimeter of the backing MiTrix panels, in addition to a substantial front-of-house truss with Martin Professional MAC 700 units.
We worked on teching the show at Sound Check's ample Nashville rehearsal stages. We were able to hang the rig in its entirety and enjoy a week of climate-controlled comfort. The show's control elements had been decided upon prior to my arrival, so it was my first time using the Martin Maxedia Media Server and the Martin Maxxyz console.
Programmer Keith Hoagland made the transition a smooth process, though. I found the Maxedia to be immediately accessible. I was fairly disappointed in the convoluted way used to achieve dual outputs from one server. Basically, you had to give up the server's media interface to achieve a second output. It seems ridiculous at this stage where many consumer gaming machines can support up to four outputs, and where other servers, such as Hippotizer or Pandora's Box, handle this with ease. It was a substantial drag for me initially, but I resolved most of that difficulty by carefully mapping my footage so that I could reliably locate media events to specific parts of the stage in the content-creation phase. After this initial difficulty, the server proved very simple to program, and Hoagland knew the Maxxyz console very well, so consolidating lighting and media cues was a breeze. Hoagland is one of those programmers who really enables a designer to reach and achieve levels of subtlety and complexity. He's fast, accurate, and intuitive.
The result was a show that looked, felt, and sounded very tight. Rimes is really coming into her own; her vocal powers were undiminished. All we had to do was put that at center, decorate accordingly, and stay out of the way!

'£79k drug farm' Burnley gang face trial
12:22pm Friday 14th February 2014 in News
FOUR men are set to face a crown court judge after an alleged £79,000 cannabis operation was discovered at a farm in Burnley.
Anthony McArdle, 48, of Red Spar Road, Burnley, appeared before Pennine magistrates charged with permitting Lower Gibfield Farm, Crown Point Road, to be used for the production of cannabis and dishonestly obtaining electricity totalling £10,144 between January and July 2013.
Adam Slack, 34, of Hopwood Road, Middleton, Peter Connor, 47, of Lake View, Ashton Road, Failsworth, Manchester, and Carmine Schiavo, 36, also of Lake View, were accused of producing 3.977kg of cannabis over the same seven-month period.
All four were released on bail to appear at Burnley Crown Court on May 19.

County falling behind its regional rivals (From Redditch Advertiser)

County falling behind its regional rivals
8:30am Friday 23rd November 2012 in News
WORCESTERSHIRE is "falling further behind" key regional rivals such as Oxfordshire, Warwickshire and Gloucestershire for skills, jobs and economic growth, according to a leading council chief executive.
Trish Haines has used her annual report to say the county is facing a skills deficit which needs to be tackled urgently.
Ms Haines, chief executive at County Hall, said economic data reveals how Worcestershire has some way to go before it can truly punch above its weight.
Her annual report also insisted residents should "come together and do things for themselves" to save taxpayers money.
It states: "Our task is to support communities to come together and do things for themselves, and actively participate in delivering those services which are important to them, and which might otherwise cease through lack of funding."
The authority has launched a scheme called Act Local, where community groups are asked to do work such as cut hedges, run youth centres and staff libraries for free.
Ms Haines said good examples of where it has worked so far include Feckenham, where a village shop is staffed by volunteers.
The council is trying to save up to £100 million by 2016 under a scheme called BOLD, known as Better Outcomes Lean Delivery.
She said: "We are going though a process of change and reduced budgets and if we don't lead that, we'll have a fiasco, a wreckage of services we can't afford – that to me is the biggest challenge, and we are well placed to take it on."

There are many ways to develop a highly successful Blogging and Content Production Strategy. In this post I want to provide four (4) of the most important ones.
With the Super Bowl right around the corner, the smart folks at our software partner HubSpot decided to pit these two disparate groups against each other in the infographic below to decide which side is more successful. (Read the original post including HubSpot's methodology at the end of the post).
There's certainly an overwhelming amount of media coverage in the week leading up to the Super Bowl, but how do the teams fare on a media comparison... specifically speaking, how do the teams and their respective fan bases compare in terms of sheer numbers, amount of interaction and contagious excitement (as measured by re-tweets and shares?) We decided to use social media tools and methods we typically reserve for clients to try and find out!
We know the BIG GAME will be decided Sunday evening, February 2nd, 2014, but which team and its fans are winning the battle off the field for search and social media dominance? We decided to find out, deploying a range of research tools we normally use for clients to provide us the data to arrive at the answer.
Choosing how many questions to ask and in which order on your Landing Pages can be one of the most important pieces of lead generation. Fine tuning and testing is an ongoing process for the agile marketer. Our friend Lisa Margetis created an Infographic showing various areas to test and work on the science of your lead generation.

Have you been struggling to find success with transitioning to an Inbound Marketing strategy? To understand the underlying reason some websites fail to attract and convert new visitors requires answers to several basic questions. Advancements to the HubSpot Content Optimization System (previous versions known as the Content Management System) this past year have allowed customers to generate thousands of new visitors and leads. Customers have raved about HubSpot's analytics which truly help a marketer turn prospects into customers.

Banish a Bad Mood in 15 Minutes
Pull yourself out of a funk, pronto, with these 3 surprisingly simple steps.
Decode Your MoodAsk yourself these key questions to figure out what's wrong.
- What's really bugging me? You're irritable and sad, but you're not sure why. "Think about what happened earlier in the day or in the week," says Larina
Kase, author of Anxious 9 to 5: How to Beat Worry, Stop Second Guessing Yourself, and Work with Confidence (New Harbinger, $15, barnesandnoble.com). "Keep going back until you hit on the most upsetting thing, something that resonates with you." This will help you address
the underlying problem rather than just focusing on the latest snafu in your life.
- Am I avoiding something? It's easier to pin your bad mood on stalled traffic than on, say, your stalled romantic life. If you still don't feel that
you've arrived at the root problem, ask yourself if there's something big going on that you're unwilling to address. Is there
someone―your new love, for instance, or your best friend―whom you're reluctant to show anger toward? Is there a nagging problem
that has been building for months that you've been hoping would simply go away? Merely acknowledging the bigger issue will
take some pressure off.
- Could it be more than one thing? Say you had a bad fight with your sister. It might be a simple case of cause and effect: You argued, and now you're angry. But the fight might have been aggravated by a problem you're dealing with at work or compounded by the fact that your father is sick. In those instances, you might be angry but also feel sad or hopeless. It's common to have multiple emotions cropping up at the same time. When you have two or more pressing problems bringing you down, try to address them one by one.

John Mabry, Olmedo Saenz and Eric Byrnes, for example. They might be on the bench for games at a time, and they fit the traditional meaning of the term "role player" for the A's.
But they aren't the only players who play roles. Every player on the Oakland roster has a clearly defined role, and that they understand those roles has been key to the A's success. Heading into Wednesday's game against the Angels, Oakland needs only to go 9-9 the rest of the way to win 100 games.
"I think everyone here knows what their job is, and that's half the battle," says manager Art Howe, "Some teams either don't have their roles laid out or the players aren't willing to accept the role they've been handed. We don't have that here."
The most clearly defined roles are in Oakland's bullpen, which through Tuesday had compiled a 2.37 ERA over the previous 34 games, and nobody's role is more set in stone than that of closer Billy Koch. He's the guy who slams the door, and on Monday he added to his ongoing career high with his 39th save of the season.
But there's more to the A's 81-0 record when leading after the eighth inning than Koch. Right-handers Chad Bradford and Jim Mecir have been reliable in setup roles for much of the season, and Bradford has been a particularly pleasant surprise. A sidearm specialist, he posted a 1.42 ERA in his first 47 outings of the season.
Lefty Ricardo Rincon, picked up just prior to the trading deadline in July, has been impressive in a set-up role as well; he's allowed four earned runs in 19 appearances with Oakland.
"Those guys don't get much credit," says Koch, "but they deserve a lot."
As does Randy Velarde, despite his limited playing time. A quiet veteran of 16 seasons whose physique looks as if it were chiseled from granite, he can play every infield position and gets kudos from throughout the clubhouse for his unmatched work ethic and professionalism.
"Randy's an inspiring guy," says third baseman Eric Chavez. "I mean, look at the guy. There's nobody who works as hard as Randy in here, and he prepares like he's a starter. That's impressive."
Velarde is the only player on the Oakland roster with more big-league service time than David Justice, and it is Justice who might be the ultimate example of someone for whom the traditional meaning of "role player" needs expansion.
He's an everyday player who plays one of the most important roles on the team: leader. Few players in the clubhouse are more liked or revered.
"DJ means so much to this team," says center fielder Terrence Long. "He's a winner, he's a teacher, and he's kind of like a big brother. No matter what you need, you can go to DJ and he's there for you."
General manager Billy Beane says that's exactly why he picked up Justice in an offseason trade.
"David has given us everything we hoped to get," Beane offers. "He has all of the intangibles that a team like our needs, and we're seeing them all as the season progresses."
And if the season progresses into the playoffs, Howe says, it will be in large part because everyone has thrived in their respective roles.
"That's the key to any team in sports," he explains. "Every person has a job, and when everyone embraces what that job is, that's when you're on your way to success."
Fantasy Edge: Ray Durham has cooled off since the A's hit the road last Thursday. Through the first five games of this seven-game road trip, Durham was batting .111 (2-for-18).

He better accept it.
Post Week 1 FA
1st Round: Mike Evans, WR Texas A&M
2nd Round: Kyle Van Noy, LB BYU
3rd Round: C.J. Fiedorowicz, TE Iowa
4th Round: Jackson Jeffcoat DE, Texas
5th Round: Aaron Colvin, CB Oklahoma
6th Round: Zack Kerr, DT Delaware
That's right in line with what he's worth IMO
I doubt he accepts only 3 years though. 4 Years maybe.

As first reported by Matt Allevato of WVIllustrated, the talented wideout will be spending his college years in Morgantown, where he will wear the Old Gold and Blue and catch passes from...well, from one of several talented quarterbacks either already on campus or possibly enrolling this summer. With offers from Ohio State, Auburn, Tennessee, Nebraska, Pitt and many other BCS schools, Gibson's services have been highly competed for. Assuming he makes it to campus---and there are no indications that he will have any trouble qualifying---he may be Holgorsen's most talented recruit to date. Finally our pass-happy offense is starting to pay dividends.
Gibson is a huge pickup for a Mountaineer offense in dire need of playmakers now that Stedman Bailey and Tavon Austin (and to a lesser extent, JD Woods) have moved on toward fulfilling their NFL dreams. He will join JUCO wideouts Kevin White and Ronald Carswell along with early enrollee Daikel Shorts in competing for immediate playing time this fall. Given this infusion of talent along with returning players like Jordan Thompson, Devonte Robinson, Devonte Mathis, KJ Myers, Dante Campbell, and Connor Arlia, the Mountaineer passing attack will have an entirely different look in 2013. Let's just hope the results share some resemblance, even if the players don't.
