Panorama from inside of Alexander Golod's pyramid. April 2012.
Inside Alexander Golod's pyramid. April 2012.
In the 1930s an occultist, writer and hardware store owner published a theory that pyramids might have special powers, such as preserving food, sharpening blades and focusing the mind. The theory was picked up by Karel Drbal, a Czech businessman who created a pyramid shaped box for sharpening knives.
The idea of pyramid power might have ended here, if paranormal authors Sheila Ostrander and Lynn Schroeder had not met with Drbal while traveling and written an entire chapter about the theory of pyramid power in their new-age hit "Psychic Discoveries Behind the Iron Curtain." Pyramid power was now an established part of new-age belief.
Picking up the torch was Ukrainian defense contractor Alexander Golod. Golod's research on pyramids is bizarre, innovative, and entirely unscientific. Nonetheless he is committed to his work and Golod created a 150-foot-high fiberglass pyramid in Russia to begin his strange experiments. Although he created multiple pyramids, his most notable is an hour outside of Moscow and stands at 150-feet high.
After a number of longitudinal studies, Golod's research found that the pyramid presence had some serious effects, including increasing the immune system, increasing agricultural yield 30-100%, and decreasing the effects of pathogens and radioactive material. Other organizations such as the International Partnership for Pyramid Research and Pyramid of Life are major proponents of pyramid therapy.
Despite a website claiming scientific support from the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences there is no published scientific evidence to support any of these claims.

Just in case you mistakenly heard that it was all ice and snow in Russia, take a peek at the Big Bikini Exposition. This is right on the river Moskva in Moscow!
Moscow has been the capital of Russia for almost its entire history. The exception is during the period of the Russian Empire, which lasted from 1721 until the Russian Revolution 1917. For these two centuries the capital was St. Petersburg. The Russian Empire was the second largest contiguous Empire in world memory; only the Mongol Empire had been greater.
Check out what's happening north of Mongolia these days, in Chita
Although you may not have heard of Sochi, on the Black Sea, they're building up quickly and hope to host the 2014 Olympics.
Other periods of Russian history include the Tsardom of Russia, from Ivan IV to Peter the Great, and the Grand Duchy (14th-16th centuries).
The earliest period of Russian history was ruled by the Novgorod Republic and Kievan Rus, which was the first Russian state dating back to 800AD in Kiev.
Modern Russia remains one of the world's superpowers. They launched the earth's second satellite, called Sputnik 1, and were the first country to put a human being into orbit around earth. (The first one is called the Moon.)
After the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991, Russia became a federal republic of 83 states.

To help build this city, during HIMSS 2013, the ONC released a request for information seeking ways to catalyze interoperability. Various government mandates, ranging from the meaningful use of EHR technology to the care coordination advocated in health care reform, depend on better health information exchange. Several avenues could be pursued, ONC notes, including Medicare, Medicaid, and Children's Health Insurance Program pilot programs and an expansion of the popular Blue Button program.
With interoperability alliances, movements and projects emerging with increasing frequency, the ONC should be prepared to do some heavy reading -- and, it is hoped, give the industry the guidance it needs to make data exchange easier.

Upton Statement on Decisive Win in Republican Primary
ST. JOSEPH, Mich. – Congressman Fred Upton, R-St. Joseph, released the following statement following his decisive victory in the Republican primary election for Michigan's 6th Congressional District. "I am honored again to be the Republican nominee for the Sixth Congressional District. I am not going to let you down. We're going to continue to work on a […]
Fred's Friends
Fred's top priorities remain jobs and our economy here in Michigan. Local businesses are working hard to lead the way for our state's recovery, but many of the policies coming out of Washington are making matters more difficult. Fred is fighting to put a permanent halt on the Obama administration's aggressive regulatory assault, which not only threatens to slow growth, but to destroy jobs and raise everyday costs for Michigan families. Instead, it is time for a pro-growth, pro-market approach that encourages businesses to create jobs and reinvest in their communities.
Fred's legislation to strengthen the pharmaceutical supply chain has been signed into law, which will streamline regulations, protect patients, and preserve local jobs. Fred has also worked to improve education and job training through more local control, protect our Great Lakes infrastructure, and support our local manufacturing jobs.
Since President Obama took office five years ago, our nation's debt has exploded beyond an historic $17 trillion dollars, sending us spiraling toward bankruptcy. This level of debt equates to nearly $55,000 for every citizen – for struggling Michigan families and small businesses, this is unacceptable.
Having worked at the Office of Management and Budget under President Ronald Reagan, Fred understands the meaning of fiscal responsibility and knows what it takes to put our nation's fiscal house back in order. He is working hard to cut federal spending and reduce the size of our bloated government.
Fred has voted to enact real spending cuts to reduce our deficit and supports major budgetary reforms to put us back on a sound fiscal footing. He is a supporter of the constitutional Balanced Budget Amendment, which would require the federal government to live within its means each year, just like the rest of us. He is also a longtime proponent of the presidential line-item veto, which would allow the President to propose cuts to wasteful spending in legislation passed by Congress – regardless of which political party is in control.
Fred is a national leader in the fight against the President's controversial healthcare law. Fred voted against the law's passage and one of his very first acts as Chairman of the Energy and Commerce Committee was to shepherd through repeal legislation, which passed the House on January 19, 2011 by a vote of 245-189. Rather than massively expanding the size and reach of the federal government, Fred supports thoughtful reforms to bring down healthcare costs and protect the doctor-patient relationship, such as tort reform and allowing consumers to purchase health insurance across state lines.
Fred has passed legislation through the House to prevent families from losing access to their health coverage, along with focusing resources to prevent premature births, battle cancer, and help schools quickly care for students with severe allergic reactions.
Fred is leading the way for our nation's energy future through an "all of the above" energy strategy. By focusing on the energy we can develop here at home, we can keep costs low for Michigan families and businesses, create jobs, and reduce our reliance on volatile energy-producing regions. As a leader in Congress, Fred is a champion of the Keystone XL pipeline project, a Canadian energy pipeline that will create countless good-paying jobs in the United States and bring us almost 1 million barrels of oil per day. While the administration has played politics with the issue, Fred is focused on commonsense solutions for our nation's energy future.
He is also on the front lines fighting the EPA's endless regulations on our nation's power plants, which if enacted will send consumer energy bills through the roof, and supporting efforts to improve natural gas pipelines to make energy more affordable.
Fred supports keeping the federal government limited, transparent, and accountable to the American people. After two years of one-party rule and zero accountability, Fred has been leader in restoring much-needed oversight. He has been a leader in holding the Administration accountable to taxpayers by supporting the "No Subsidies Without Verification Act" to reduce fraud and waste in the health care law and voted for legislation to prevent unelected Washington officials from unilaterally imposing costly regulations on the American people.
Michigan taxpayers deserve greater accountability when it comes to their hard-earned tax dollars – Fred is fighting for just that.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the NHT Super 8 by Kristen Schaub Why add a powered subwoofer? A powered subwoofer gives you bass you can feel as well as hear. Our customers love the depth and impact their subs add to music and movies. We hear comments like "it brings out sounds I didn't know existed in discs I've watched a million times." Powered subwoofers aren't just for big bass that rattles your picture frames; they can also deliver tight, accurate lows. If you haven't shopped for a powered sub in a while, you might be surprised at how small they get. Look for an ultra-compact model if you want to tuck your sub away under an end table or in a corner. NHT's compact Super 8 delivers high-quality bass without a high price tag. It produces deep, clean bass equally well with both movie and music soundtracks thanks to the 8" woofer and 110-watt amplifier. Plus, its compact footprint measures less than a square foot, so it'll practically disappear into your room. Use the Super 8 with NHT's perfectly matched SuperZero 2.0 satellite speakers and you can create a fantastic compact sound system that puts the excitement back in your movies and music. Airtight design for tight, clean bass The Super 8 has a built-in Digital Signal Processor (DSP) that dynamically controls the amplifier power, equalization, and crossover functions to ensure that you hear deep, controlled bass without distortion. A special equalizer switch on the back helps you optimize the sub's output for either movies or music. And unlike most subs, it has an acoustic suspension (sealed) cabinet design a common feature of NHT speakers. It means there's no hole or port to interact with your room, so you'll hear tight bass no matter where you put the sub.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Controls Connections Features Overview: The NHT Super 8 powered subwoofer is great for use with any high-quality compact speaker that's bass shy, and is a perfect match for the NHT SuperZero satellite speakers (228SZ20B, sold separately). The NHT Super 8 powered subwoofer delivers high-end deep bass performance and is great for both home theater & stereo music. Adding a powered subwoofer to your home theater or home stereo system offers plenty of benefits - takes the deep bass load off of your main speakers, so they play louder with lower distortion helps your amplifier by handling the deep bass (your amp handles just the midrange and high frequencies) blends seamlessly with your main speakers and disappears DSP (Digital Signal Processing )Engine: The integrated DSP engine dynamically controls the powered subwoofer's amplifier power, equalization, and filter functions. As a result, the Super 8 plays louder, deeper, with more control. The DSP's built-in limiter and compressor even protects the woofer from being over-driven. 110 Watt Amp: The NHT Super 8 powered subwoofer employs a built-in BASH amplifier rated at 110 watts, 4-ohms, 0.5% THD. Note: Always provide adequate space for ventilation of the subwoofer amplifier. Do not place the powered subwoofer directly against a wall, curtains, or any other surface. 8" Woofer: The NHT Super 8 powered subwoofer houses a heavy-duty, long-throw, pulp-cone 8" woofer that has been custom designed by NHT specifically for the Super 8's closed box, acoustic suspension design. The loaded woofer fires forward into the room (not down-firing). Sealed Enclosure: The NHT Super 8 powered subwoofer features a sealed enclosure. It has no holes or ports that can interact with its surroundings making it ok to put it wherever it fits in your space, instead of the other way around. An instead of boomy, sloppy bass - you get deep, accurate, natural sounding bass. Gloss Black Finish: The Super 8 powered subwoofer comes beautifully wrapped in the signature NHT gloss black finish. Mounting Feet: The NHT Super 8 comes with four aluminum spiked feet for carpeted flooring. There are also four aluminum floor protectors included, in case you have hardwood or tile flooring. The feet are adjustable to combat against uneven floors. Controls Subwoofer Volume Control: The NHT Super 8's volume control (min/max) matches the powered subwoofer's volume to the your satellite speaker's output. EQ Switch: A Unique EQ switch tunes the powered subwoofer for your choice of Movie or Music. The Movie setting augments soundtracks and special effects, while offering higher output. The Music setting will provide lower, more balanced bass response. Crossover: The NHT Super 8 incorporates a variable low-pass crossover (60-150Hz). The crossover is active for the powered subwoofer's stereo line-level and speaker level inputs. It does not function with the LFE input (you will need to use the low-pass crossover built into your A/V receiver). Phase Control: A phase control (0/180-degrees) integrates the Super 8's output with your satellite speakers for a more blended, smoother sound. Auto On/Off: The NHT Super 8 will automatically turn-on when it senses an audio signal through its line-level or speaker-level terminals. The powered subwoofer will then turn itself off when there is no sound present for approximately 20 minutes. Or, you can leave the powered subwoofer always on. USB Wireless Adapter (optional): There is a USB (type-A) connection for use with a future NHT wireless audio adaptor (sold separately). Connections LFE/Stereo Input: The Super 8 has an LFE/RCA input for connection to your receiver's sub out, and stereo RCA inputs for your receiver's line-level preamp outputs. LFE/Subwoofer Input: The most common connection for A/V receivers today is to run a single audio cable from the receiver's Subwoofer or LFE output to the powered subwoofer's LFE/RCA input. The LFE input bypasses the powered subwoofer's crossover control and uses the built-in crossover settings in your receiver. Stereo RCA Input: Some older A/V or stereo receiver only offer preamp outputs. In this case, connect a pair of audio cables from the left/right preamp outputs on the receiver to the two stereo RCA inputs on back of the powered subwoofer. With this connection, you will use the powered subwoofer's integrated crossover controls. Speaker-Level Inputs/Outputs: There are speaker-level inputs with a high-pass (bass removed) speaker level outputs to connect your satellite speakers, if your receiver lacks LFE/Stereo RCA Inputs. Simply connect a pair of stereo speaker wires from the receiver to the speaker-level input terminals on the powered subwoofer. Then connect a second stereo pair of speakers wires from the powered subwoofer to each satellite speaker. With this configuration, you will use the powered subwoofer's integrated crossover controls. Not only will the crossover prevent high-frequencies from reaching the powered subwoofer, it will prevent low-frequencies from reaching your connected satellite speaker to prevent unwanted distortion. Universal Power Supply: The Super 8 uses a super-efficient, universal power supply (100v to 240v) to deliver full output anywhere in the world.

Celebrating our 90th anniversary in 2009, Marquette's Engineering Co-op Program is the fifth oldest co-op program in the United States. (Co-op is a program combining academic study and practical work experience, a learning and training partnership between Marquette, employer and student beneficial to all participants. Co-op provides students with hands-on, career-related work experience and the opportunity to develop professionally and academically. Employers draw upon the energy and enthusiasm of highly qualified students to meet their ongoing need for effective employees. And Marquette has contact with the new trends and needs of industry, which can be integrated into course work and curriculum.
Marquette Co-op students alternate semesters of school attendance with semesters of employment after completion of their sophomore year. Under this plan, students are required to complete a minimum of three alternating work terms with their Co-op employer, but, in most cases, they work four work terms. They receive one academic credit for each semester they work, three of which can be used as a technical elective toward degree requirements. More than 240 students currently participate in the Co-op program, which constitutes 47 percent of the junior- and senior-standing students. In addition, approximately 150 sophomores each year pursue Co-op employment beginning in eMay (summer), August (fall) or January. Co-op candidates are enrolled in all engineering curricula: biomedical, Civil, Construction and Environmental, computer, electrical, industrial, and mechanical. All candidates approach Co-op employment with a great deal of maturity and willingness to work hard at and learn the practical side of engineering.
When hiring a Co-op student, an employer is not required to sign a Co-op agreement form with Marquette. However, that employer is asked to verbally commit to offering that student challenging, engineering-related work assignments for a minimum of three alternating work terms (many employers hire an alternating pair of Co-ops, which results in always having a Co-op student working for them at any time of the year). At the end of each work term, the Co-op students supervisor is required to complete and submit to our office an employer evaluation form. Salaries are determined by each Co-op employer. But the approximate average salary for the first Co-op work term is $14/hour, and the range is $12/hour to $18-plus/hour.

Classified Staff at Dawson Community College are employees who are not faculty members or administrative officers of the college.
See BP/CP 2-4: Evaluation of Classified Staff.
Classified staff members are entitled to annual vacation leave as per the following rate table:
A. 1 – 10 years of service = 1 ¼ days per month (10 hours)
B. 11 – 15 years of service = 1 ½ days per month (12 hours)
C. 16 – 20 years of service = 1 ¾ days per month (14 hours)
D. 21 or more years of service = 2 days per month (16 hours)
A classified employee may accumulate a total of no more than two (2) years of unused, annual vacation leave. Any unused annual vacation leave above that amount will be forfeited.
A classified employee who is separated from service is entitled to cash compensation for unused vacation pay.
Employees with less than six (6) months of continuous service to the College are ineligible to use annual vacation leave during that period.
The college will be closed on those holidays designated by the College President. Generally, state approved holidays will be observed unless school is in session. In these instances, compensatory time may be accrued to be used at a later date.
Short leaves of absence without pay may be granted with approval of both the immediate supervisor and the President.
Classified staff positions that are more than half-time, but less than full-time are eligible for leave benefits calculated on a pro rata basis.
Full-time and permanent part-time classified employees are entitled to sick leave with full pay at the rate of one working day for each month of service. The employee is entitled to sick leave only after 90 days of continuous employment, and is entitled to credit for sick leave earned during that period. Accumulated sick leave is paid to the employee at the rate of 25 percent when an employee leaves employment.
Classified staff may be allowed to accrue overtime or comp time when they must work additional hours within the monthly pay period to complete their job duties. Compensatory time is not to be claimed in connection with attendance at seminars or meetings which are primarily for professional development.
The employee is required to obtain written permission from their immediate supervisor to accrue overtime/comp time or use comp time. Work should be scheduled and overloads anticipated so that comp time will be the preferred method; overtime will be allowed only in emergency situations and on a very limited basis.
Overtime/comp time will be accrued at a rate of one and a half hours for every hour worked. Comp time should be used during the semester in which it is earned.
All new, rehired, and newly-promoted employees, excluding faculty, work on a provisional basis for the first six months. An employee is encouraged to take advantage of this period to determine whether the position meets one's expectations and to get clarification regarding responsibilities. The College will use this period to evaluate an employee's capabilities and work habits. Either the College or the employee may end the employment relationship at will, with or without cause.
If an employee is absent from work for any significant time during the first six months, the provisional period will be extended by the length of the absence automatically. In addition, if the College determines that it has not had sufficient time for a thorough evaluation of one's performance, it may choose to extend the provisional period for a specified length of time. The employee's supervisor will notify him/her of any extension, its length and reason.
Provisional employment status does not affect eligibility for employer-provided benefits. The terms and conditions of each determine eligibility for such programs.
If newly hired, an employee will receive a performance appraisal after the first 90 days and at the completion of the provisional period. Subsequent reviews occur annually on the job-anniversary date, with an informal performance discussion every six months.
A classified employee resigning his/her position at Dawson Community College is requested to give notice to his/her supervisor at least two weeks before the termination date. Also refer to A.19 (Separation from Employment).
Classified staff salaries are paid at an hourly rate. A concerted effort is made to maintain fair wage and/or salary range for each position. Placement on the Classified Staff Salary Schedule is determined by three major factors: skills, responsibilities, and working conditions. Advancement on the salary schedule is determined by satisfactory work performance and length of service. The college does not grant automatic salary increases. No salary advances will be paid by Dawson Community College.
When a job description specifies that the educational requirements are a Bachelor's degree or the combination of an Associate's degree and related work experience, this means an applicant has two ways in which to meet the requirements. The first is the possession of a Bachelor's degree. The second is a combination of an Associate's degree and six (6) years of work experience directly related to the nature of the work to be performed. Unrelated work experience will not be counted.
Classified staff will be selected according to procedures required by statute and regulation. The procedure for selection will be similar to that described under BP/CP 2-5: Faculty Hiring Requirements. However, appropriate modifications to these procedures will be determined by the respective Dean and the AA/EOE Officer.
Except for situations involving termination for cause, a financial exigency, or termination within the probationary period, classified employees will be given a written notice of intent not to renew their contracts at least 30 days prior to the expiration date during the first year of employment, three months prior to the expiration date during the second year of employment, or six months prior to the expiration date during the third and subsequent years of employment in a full-time position.
Classified staff members are required to document hours worked by means of a timesheet. The college pays twice each month (on the 5th and 20th or the last working day prior to these dates if these dates fall on a weekend or holiday). Classified staff must complete their timesheet, secure their supervisor's signature on the form, and submit the completed form to the Business Office by the 1st and the 16th of each month.
Standard working hours are 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Working hours may vary according to the terms arranged at the time of appointment. The normal work week is 40 hours. Normally, the lunch period is 30 minutes. Summer hours may vary. The work week starts Sunday at 12:00 a.m. and ends at midnight on the following Saturday.
Staff may arrange "flex-time" hours with the approval of the appropriate Dean, in order to adequately address their job duties. All classified staff must complete time sheets and turn them in to their supervisor for approval at the end of each pay period. Planned-for-absences must be documented on an absence report and be authorized by the immediate supervisor prior to the absence. Unplanned-for-absences (e.g., illness, bereavement, etc.) must also be documented on an absence report and be authorized by the immediate supervisor upon the employee's return to campus.

Second Coming Tor
The Granite Tors are a collection of granite buttresses located above tree line on the ridges that circumvent the Martin and Rock Creek drainages within the Chena Hot Springs recreation area. Though there is an established loop trail that makes accessibility easier to the crags there is a remote nature to the climbing and care should be taken not to underestimate the approach and other associated risks in traveling Alaska's backcountry.
Getting There
From Fairbanks take the Steese Expressway to Chena Hot Springs road and take the road to milemarker 39 and a camping ground area (parking fee $5) that marks the start to access Granite Tors trailhead. Cross the road and follow the south bank of the Chena river to a fork in the trail. Leaving the river you can gain a ridge that ascends a series of increasingly elevated hills to above tree line. From here the trail continues up and loops through the various Tors climbing sites. Approach time: 2 hours. If you take the trail at the fork that continues to follow the Chena approach time is 2 1/2 to 3 hours.

A dance school run by the same woman since it began is celebrating its diamond anniversary.
The Jandor School of Dancing, based at Netherhall School in Queen Edith's, Cambridge, has been run by Doris Fullman since 1953 – the year of the Queen's Coronation.
The group, previously known as Doris Juveniles, moved from Essex to Cambridge in 1968 where it has taught thousands of children to perform while improving their self-confidence and boosting fitness.
It celebrated the landmark anniversary at its annual show on Sunday, which featured dance styles including tap, modern, ballet and Latin.
About 85 dancers performed to an audience of more than 200 people
There was added significance to this year's diamond anniversary event following the death of Doris' husband Joseph, aged 87, from a stroke in 2011.
He would help stage the show despite being in poor health.
Their daughter Janice has been helping her mum with the school since she was 6.
She said: "We've taught children, who have then had their children here and I'm waiting for the third generation.
"I think we've been here for such a long time because it's such a friendly school. I take all types and you don't have to be a brilliant dancer.
"Each child is an individual and you can always find something they can do. You might have a child who says 'I can't dance' but then maybe they can sing.
"It gives them self-discipline and of course it's fun."
Former professional dancer Doris was treated to a surprise performance of her opening routine by the youngsters.
Janice added: "She had no idea it was going to happen. It was a very emotional day."

Three lanes of westbound Interstate 4 south of downtown Orlando have reopened after a tractor-trailer lost control and crashed, spilling fuel on the interstate and sweet potatoes down an embankment, authorities said.Motorists experienced heavy delays through downtown this morning. Westbound I-4 was closed from Anderson Street to just before the State Road 408 entrance ramp as crews worked to clean up debris and diesel fuel.The semi, headed to Publix, crashed and struck a pole just before 3:45 a.m. at S.R. 408 entrance ramp to I-4. The semi's trailer turned over, spilling the sweet potatoes.The semi's cab caught fire, but the blaze was quickly extinguished by Orlando firefighters.A second vehicle behind the semi slipped on spilled fuel on the roadway and also crashed, authorities told Fox 35's Melissa Mahadeo."They'll get a flatbed and probably some big tractor to pull that thing from around the pole," Orlando Fire Department District Chief Mike Droege said. "Then we have to clean up the roadway, and we have a bunch of sweet potatoes on the other side."Both drivers suffered minor injuries but are expected to be OK.

Associated Press
AUSTIN, Texas — Executives with OneWest Bank have announced that more than 700 workers will lose their jobs as the company is acquired as part of a $2.53 billion deal.
The Austin American-Statesman reports Monday that the majority of the 725 employees work at a call center.
OneWest Bank is being acquired by Atlanta-based Ocwen Financial Corp., which announced last week that it's purchasing mortgage servicing rights from OneWest. It's the latest in a string of acquisitions by Ocwen of companies that collect payments on subprime mortgages.
A letter of notification to the Texas Workforce Commission indicates the layoffs are scheduled to begin Aug. 31. About 150 employees will be retained at the Austin facility, which serves as headquarters for OneWest's home loan business. The bank is based in Pasadena, Calif.

UCF Black & Gold Challenge Commences on Friday for FGCU Cross Country Teams
ORLANDO, Fla. – For the second straight weekend the FGCU cross country teams will travel to Orlando, Fla., this time competing at the UCF Black and Gold Challenge on Friday evening. In their final tune-up before the Atlantic Sun Conference Championship, the women's team will begin the 6K event at 6 p.m. with the men's 8K race to follow at 6:45 p.m.
The Eagles will be competing in the 17-team women's field and 13-team men's field which includes Bethune-Cookman, Florida A&M, FAU, Jacksonville, North Florida, USF, Stetson and UCF (women only). It will mark the first time competing at the event for the Green and Blue.
It will also be UCF's UKNIGHT in Pink event, meant to raise awareness for breast cancer research. Part of the entry fees for the competition will be donated to cancer research. With approximately 300 runners in the competition it will be the largest meet hosted by UCF, and runners will be wearing pink shoelaces in honor of the event.
Last Saturday at the Disney World Cross Country Classic in Orlando, the Eagles had a strong showing as the men's team took second place in the field of 24 teams, while the women took fourth in the 28-team race at the Wide World of Sports Complex.
Finishing one-two in all four competitions this fall, the women's team is led by junior Barrie Cohen (Voorhees, N.J./Eastern Regional HS) and sophomore Kelly Perzanowski (St. Clairsville, Ohio/St. Clairsville HS). For the fourth straight event this season, Cohen was the top finisher for the Eagles, taking seventh out of 269 individuals with a time of 18:42.70 last Saturday, an effort which earned her FGCU's first-ever A-Sun Runner of the Week honor. It was a new season-best time for Cohen, and also set a new program record for a junior. Perzanowski finished 10th overall at the event with a time of 19:00.20.
Sophomore Argeo Cruz (Immokalee, Fla./Immokalee HS) and redshirt sophomore Gilbert Chemaoi (Eldoret, Kenya/Kirobon HS/Eastern Kentucky) continue to pace the Eagles, running top times for the Green and Blue in all four fall events this season. Earning FGCU's first-ever A-Sun Runner of the Week award, Cruz finished in seventh place in the field of 214 runners with a time of 25:55.70, setting a new season-best time, as well as, a new program record for a sophomore. Chemaoi also made a strong contribution to the men's second place finish, crossing the finish line at the 26:18.01 mark to take 12th overall.
Results and recaps from the women's and men's events will be available at www.FGCUAthletics.com following the competition.

She received her Ph.D in both French and Italian from Stanford University in 2011 with a dissertation entitled "Late Twentieth-Century French and Italian Essayistic Fiction," which analyzed various strands of essayistic thinking, style, and rhetorical strategies in fiction from the late 1960s to present in France, Italy, and beyond. Writers included in her project are Michel Tournier, Claudio Magris, Italo Calvino, Patrick Chamoiseau, Yannick Haenel, Édouard Glissant, and others. She spent a year at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris as a researcher and has published various articles, translations, and book reviews in Chimères: A Journal of French Literature, Quaderni di Synapsis, The French Review, Magazine littéraire, Quaderni del '900, and Yale French Studies. She was managing editor of Modernism/Modernity and production manager for Professor Robert Harrison's radio show Entitled Opinions on Stanford's radio station KZSU 90.1. Her book project investigates rootedness as a pervasive literary, political, and philosophical theme in 20th-century French and Francophone culture. With examples from a wide range of writers and thinkers (Bachelard, Guillevic, Condé, Barrès, Gide, Weil, Levinas, Glissant, Deleuze, Guattari, Sartre), she illustrates the extent to which the root metaphor becomes erroneously literalized and used as a justification for everything from ultra-conservative nationalism to claims of hereditary inferiority of certain class and ethnic groups.

Her specific areas of focus are nineteenth-, twentieth-, and twenty-first-century French, Francophone, and Italian literature, with a special interest in prose, particularly the essay and the novel and texts in which these two forms overlap. The intersection of philosophy and literature is central to her work as a researcher and teacher. She has taught courses on the contemporary French novel, on the history of the essay in France beginning with Montaigne, and read authors such as Houellebecq, Gary, Barthes, Kristeva, Cixous, Sartre, Camus, Fanon, Darrieussecq, Baudrillard, Cocteau, Valéry, Irigaray, and Perec with her students.
This media-based survey of popular music in twentieth-century France traces the evolution of music culture through intensive listening to the most influential artists from 1900 to 2012, through recorded and printed interviews with musicians, songwriters, producers, and critics, and through the analysis of music videos and blogs. Beginning with the great music hall performers at the beginning of the century to contemporary experimentations in electronic music, hip hop, and hybrid forms, the course constructs the genealogy of influence between musicians and raises questions about the relationship between music-making, commercial interests, and politics, and poses the deeply philosophical problem: What is authenticity? Musicians studied include Gainsbourg, Piaf, Baker, Khaled, Brassens, Montand, Brel, MC Solaar, Reinhardt, Dalida, Air, Plastic Bertrand, Les Rita Mitsouko, Stereolab, and many others.
This course, which emphasizes both close- and far-reading, analyzes forms such as autopathography, autofiction, photo-roman, autobiography, philosophical treatise, blog, biography, novel, archival fiction, and novella. Through texts of contemporary writers (Guibert, Vargas, Nothomb, Volodine, Chevillard, Fellous, Pennac, Quignard), students interrogate the relationship between text and image, analyze cinematic adaptations of texts, evaluate new kinds of subjectivity afforded by contemporary writing, and challenge normative assumptions about what prose can or should do. Other themes include: representations of the body, metatextuality, the act of reading and writing, global identity, memory and trauma, and consumerist culture. Students will watch interviews with the authors in question and read critical articles on the specific texts covered in the course.
FRE 367 Feminist Thought in Twentieth-Century French Literature and Art
This course surveys the canonical theoretical writings on feminism in twentieth-century France and Francophone countries, including texts by Beauvoir, Cixous, Kristeva, Irigaray, Condé, Wittig, Despentes, and Tiqqun. Some topics addressed: pornography for women, debates on the veil and the burqa in the public space, the Dominique Strauss-Kahn incident, le manifeste des 343, cosmetics, parity laws, street harassment, maternity politics, queer politics, ecofeminism. We will explore these themes in texts, music, photos, films, and other visual media by Cahun, Nothomb, Darrieussecq, Denis, Djebar, Calle, Ernaux, and others.
FRE 530 Essayism: Trajectory of a Genre (graduate seminar)
The essay, whose tradition is firmly rooted in sixteenth-century France beginning with Montaigne, resists conventional taxonomies and tests the plasticity of genre. Not only does the essay borrow at liberty from all Aristotelian categories – the lyric, the dramatic, and the epic –, it also merges disciplines, conflating art and science while constructing its own system of logic and its own codes. Students will take stock of prominent theories of the essay and develop a sophisticated conceptual framework to discuss this elusive form. With exemplary essays and essayistic texts by European writers, this course explores issues including: hybridity, open-endedness, contingency, voice, form, rhetorical devices and style, humility, intuition, self-portraiture, possibilitarianism, virtuality, digression, the peripatetic tradition (walking and thinking), playfulness, and political engagement. With an emphasis on the twentieth century, we will read the most fascinating essays from a range of sub-categories (the familiar essay, the critical essay, the politically engaged essay, etc.), and will consider examples of essayistic poetry (Eugène Guillevic), the essayistic novel (Robert Musil, Michel Tournier), the photo-essai (Sophie Calle, Denis Roche), and the essay-film (Chris Marker). We will also consider the essay's role in the progressive aestheticization of theory that has occurred throughout the twentieth century. This course may be of particular interest to students of philosophy and poetics.

The best nut brown I've had since Samuel Smith. The apperance was great with a dark chocolate brown color and slightly off white head. The smell was great with a smell of nutella and malt. The flavor was very smoothe and refreshing with a great blend of nuttiness, malts and just a slight hint of hops in the finnish. A excelent brown and extremly drinkable!

Appearance: chestnut brown in color, 1/4 inch head, clear, high carbonation
Smell: deep toasted malt and nut
Taste: deep toasted malt, nut, light roasted malt, earth, and some chocolaty notes
Mouthfeel: light bodied, high carbonation, sweet start with an earthy backbone.
Overall: A very enjoyable sessionable nut brown. Not my favorite in the style, but it is up there. I will certainly pick this one up again. Makes for a great fall beer.

750mL bottle from Premier Gourmet, purchased alongside a good number of AleSmith offerings.
Poured into a sampler glass, shared at a recent tasting. Dark chestnut brown, and with a brilliant half inch of light brown head that takes a good while to recede. Great retention, and loads of sticky lace. Great stuff.
Nose is classic quality brown ale, lightly roasted malt, caramel, toffee, nuts (chestnut or hazel), apple, figs and a light hop bitterness.
Very impressive brown ale. Normally this is a style that I really enjoy, but rarely have much to say about, nor is it a style I actively seek out in my beer hunting - it's a sturdy, everyday drinking ale. This edition, however, is one of the best around and deserves special mention. Rich, very flavorful with a clear nuttiness and sweet caramel flavour, which is cleaned up with a nice dry roasted bitterness. Smooth, highly sessionable were I able to have this on tap.
Great stuff, this. So glad I picked this one up, especially at the price (4 or 5.99 I think). Very tasty brown ale - well worth seeking out.

Tap @ O'Brien's. Pours clear brown with a short-lived off-white head. Aroma of nuts and caramel. More nuts in the taste; almonds, hazelnuts, peanuts. Nice blend of caramel and cocoa and a slightly smoky finish. I'm still not a huge fan of brown ale, but this was very good.

Rich dark brown in color with great clarity. A thin layer of white foam rests on top. Brussels lacing. Luscious nutty aroma along the lines of hazelnut and caramel greets me. Delicious hazelnut dominates the dark malt flavor. The mouth is smooth and silky.

Vine Cottage
San Marcos, CA
A very dark brown with a small brown head that eventually leaves messy sheets of lace down the glass.
Pleasant, to-style aroma of distinct nutty elements, mild roast, biscuit, and mild toffee.
The flavor is similar, though more complex than the aroma. Along with the nutty, bready, and sweet elements, there's also distinct coffee flavor.
Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
A terrific brown.

Poured from a 22 oz. bottle into a tall Summit glass. Bottled on 08/06/13.
Appearance: Pours a deep brown amber cola like color with a moderate amount of bubbles. Solid two fingers of light tan head which slowly fade into a thin creamy layer. Leaves a lot of creamy lacing around the glass.
Smell: A toasty and fairly sweet malt forward aroma with good hints of chocolate and nuts. Upfront toasted and roasted malts with hints of sweet chocolate, caramel, toffee, biscuit, nuts, coffee, toast, grains, and yeast. Hints of brown sugar sweetness. Subtle hints of earthy and grassy hops linger around in the background. Slight hint of citrus orange as well. A pretty solid brown aroma.
Taste: Like it smells, a nicely toasty and sweet malt driven taste with good notes of chocolate, biscuit, and nuts. Toasty and roasted taste of malts upfront with notes of chocolate, caramel, toffee, biscuit, nuts, toast, coffee, cream, grains, and yeast. Sweet notes of brown sugar linger. Decent hop background with earthy and grassy notes and a slight presence of citrus orange peeks through. A very solid malty and nutty taste.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with a moderate amount of carbonation. Very creamy and smooth. Somewhat sweet but finishes fairly dry.
Overall: A very solid take on a Brown Ale. Good toasty malt presence with good notes of chocolate, biscuit, and nuts.

Chestnut colored with an oatmeal colored head that rises up minimally and settles out quickly. Surprisingly clear. Low aroma of cocoa and dark malt, a little toasted.
Flavors of dark malt, cocoa, notes of molasses and licorice, slight metallic note. A raisin note lingers. Thin mouthfeel, a bit slick. Decent beer, but I expected more from this world class brewer.

22 oz bottle, 2014 vintage, served in a wine glass.
Pours with a very durable tan head that leaves excetional lacing. The body is very dark red-brown, clear but almost opaque.
Aroma: the weak point. Nutty malts with some faint off odors.
Flavor: Moderate strength nutty flavor with dark grains and a impression of dark bread. Good, lingering malty aftertaste.
O: a decent nut brown but the weakest offering I've had from this fine brewery.

I had this beer on tap at the Liar's Club. I have never seen it anywhere else, so I am happy that it is always at the Liar's Club.
This beer pours a redish brown color with a nice looking ruby tint. It has a light tan head, that fades slowly, leaving many thick laces.
This beer has a nice toasted malt aroma. It smells nutty. It also has a good caramel sweet aroma to it. Not much hop presence.
This beer tastes much like the aroma leads on. It is pleasently nutty, with a mild toasted malt flavor. Caramel sweetness in present. As with the aroma, the hop profile is rather low.
This beer is quite refreshing. It goes down very smooth, leaving a nutty aftertaste. This beer is perfectly carbonated.
I think this beer would make a perfect session beer if you could find it. It is low in alcohol, and that can be nice. Also, it has a great flavor, and wouldnt get overbearing.
Overall: I really like this beer. It is easy to drink with the low alcohol. I wish it was more available. It is a winner.

Had on-tap at the Yard House in Long Beach, CA.
Pours a bright brown color with a one-finger tan head. The head recedes into a patchy layer on top leaving solid lacing.
Smells of toasted malts with sweet caramel aromas and a hint of citrus hops.
Tastes similar to how it smells. Toasted and caramel malt flavors kick things off and carry through until a crisp and slightly bitter ending. As with the smell there's a small amount of citrus hops that makes an appearance but the malts are front and center throughout.
Mouthfeel is good. It has a solid thickness with moderate carbonation.
Drinkability is good. I didn't have a problem finishing my glass and could have a few more of these, especially at 4.8%.
Overall this is one of the better brown ales I recall having. A solid brown that doesn't try and overpower the subtle flavors. Certainly worth a shot.

Poured an excellent dark brown with off white head that looks ruby red when held up to a light. The scent was excellent, rich roasted malt, toffee, nutty notes and a bit of dark coffee were all present on the nose. Very enticing. The flavor delivered on this promise, beginning with a hit of roast malt, moving into toffee and roast malt, and finishing with rich nutty notes and a slight coffee like aftertaste. The mouthfeel was good, with a medium carbonation that made the beer quite easy to drink. The body was medium-light which contributed to this ease. An all around excellent brown ale, easily the best I've tried as of this date.

Caravans destroyed in Devil's Dyke traveller site fire
12:40pm Monday 25th February 2013 in News By Ben James
Two caravans were destroyed after a mystery fire at a traveller site.
The vehicles, which were parked up by the side of Devil's Dyke Road, went up in flames in the early hours of Sunday morning.
Two engines from Hove Fire Station were called to tackle the blaze but the caravans were completely destroyed.
Nobody was thought to be hurt.
When The Argus visited the illegal camp at 9am yesterday (February 24), the wreckage was still smouldering.
Just the frame of the vehicles were left along with the metal sink units, cooker and grill.
The majority of the 20-odd caravans appeared to be abandoned with rubbish strewn around the nearby land.
One resident, who asked not to be named, said: "We were woken up in the early hours by the fire engines.
"I don't know how it started and I don't think anyone was hurt."
She added: "A lot of people have moved away because it is so cold up here at the moment."
Hard times
The Argus featured the camp and its inhabitants on February 11.
Many residents, rather than belonging to traveller families, claim to have lived in the surrounding towns and cities and fallen on hard times.
Their four-month stay near the popular beauty spot has cost Brighton and Hove City Council some £20,000.
The authority last week served them an eviction order which they have appealed citing that they need more time to leave the land.
An East Sussex Fire and Rescue spokeswoman said: "Two appliances attended from Hove at 3.12am.
"It is thought to have been started accidently but we are unsure as to what exactly happened.
"Nobody was injured."
Some members of the current encampment are said to be part of a group which was evicted from land bordering Devil's Dyke Road in May 2012.

Much of the talk heading into North Carolina's Elite Eight showdown with fellow basketball blue-blood Kansas was about whether the Tar Heels would miss injured point guard Kendall Marshall. So far, James Michael McAdoo has made up for that injury and another one, and kept North Carolina tied with Kansas, 31-31, in a fast-paced game.
McAdoo has come off the bench to score 10 points and record two steals, leading North Carolina in both categories. That's made up for the absence of John Henson, who has been on the bench and having his ankle looked at for much of the first half.
Similarly, Thomas Robinson's carrying the Jayhawks: he's got 11 points and four rebounds, and just stepped into a rare three. Jeff Withey's contributed seven points for Kansas, but Robinson's eight shots are as many as Kansas's next three most-used shooters combined.

PEORIA, Ill. -- The Peoria High School Cheerleaders are back home from what many call 'the trip of a lifetime' to sunny Florida.
The Central Cheerleaders performed during halftime at the Florida Gator Bowl this past weekend.
Their trip was made possible by community donations and several fundraisers.
The Cheerleaders practiced for weeks prior to the trip.
Not only did they perform, but they also competed for top honors with seven other schools.
They ended up taking fourth place, but say the experience was well worth it.
"It was fun. I had a great time, and the weather was nice. The teams were nice. Most of them. And, it was a good experience. Like bonding with the other teams that was fun and meeting new people. That's always fun," says Nicole Robinson, PHS Cheerleaders Co-Captain.
"We had a Hawaii team, a team from Hawaii that was there, and Pennsylvania and bonding with them. Really feeling welcomed," says Gina Dailey, PHS Cheerleading Coach.
The Peoria High Cheerleaders say they're looking forward to the possibility of making another trip to a high profile National event, and will be up for the challenge if and when the opportunity presents itself.

Add To Plan
Enter the fly-zone! An eco-rainforest adventure for those seeking excitement and exhilaration! Featuring seven zip lines, 10 lofty tree platforms, Alaska's longest sky bridge, a 250-foot long mountain slide, and rappelling. Your adventure begins with a ride up the steep hillside in a custom all-terrain 4x4 Mercedes Unimog, to the outfitting chalet. After outfitting and an orientation, it's an uphill hike via an improved rainforest trail to a ground-based practice zip line, where your guides introduce you to zipping. This is your introduction to 5,200 feet of dual cable zip lines, intersected with a 250-foot long suspension bridge, providing an aerial view of Bear Creek and a forest waterfall. You'll rappel to the ground from the last tree platform. Speeding down the mountain slide will be one of the highlights of your zip line adventure. Experience the panoramic ocean, forest and mountain views from the tree platforms on this exciting and safe adventure at the lush Herring Cove rainforest reserve, an eight mile coastal drive from Ketchikan. In addition to tall stands of spruce, hemlock and cedar, the ecosystem here supports an extensive wildlife population. Although sightings cannot be guaranteed, guests often see eagles and bears. Board the Unimog for a forest hillside descent and transportation to the base camp, where you'll be presented with a special award in recognition of your achievement.
