NPR's popular host, Scott Simon, live-tweeted his 84-year-old mother's passing from her bedside in a Chicago hospital. By doing so, he challenged some commonly held beliefs about social media in general and Twitter in particular. Twitter, due to its terse style, is often held up to be superficial, void of genuine emotion and incapable of creating a meaningful narrative. Simon's eloquence, charm, pain and humor over five difficult days should have created a bit of cognitive dissonance for those who think that Twitter-speak reduces people to idiots. If you read his posts during the last hours he spent with his mother, you would be impressed by his ability to say so much with so little. Like many others, you would be moved to tears. And you might also reevaluate the ability of social media to capture meaningful human experience.
Yes, it defied convention. The structure of Twitter, however, enables the chronicling of life events in very powerful ways. It documents a slice of life through words and images that, cumulatively, is incredibly powerful. Twitter is simple. Posting is easy. It alleviates the need to do anything other than spotlight meaningful moments. You don't have to provide segues to get the reader from one thought to the next. The continuity and meaning is constructed through the accumulation of events, not any one point of brilliance. Not many of us have the verbal acuity and finesse of Scott Simon. His words were simple, yet poignant, devoid of text-speak and resembled poetry not stereotypical tweets.

Post-NBA Draft, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh opt-out
in Basketball
I'll go over everything about the 2014 NBA Draft. What I thought happened at the top of the draft, were there any major reaches? Who fell too far? Which teams had the best draft and which didn't make out too hot? Also, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh opted out of their deals with Miami for the 2014-15 season. What does this mean? Will they come back with LeBron? Will one or two stay? If they all come back, what do they have to do to be able to compete with the San Antonio Spurs?
SPORTS Chat: Chris Bosh four-year, $80 million-plus contract to leave the Heat

#MiamiHeat forward#ChrisBosh had his first direct conversation withHouston #Rocketsmanagement on Monday morning, inching closer to the possibility of a four-year, $80 million-plus contract, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
Bosh's stance on his intentions has remained unchanged: His preference is to stay with Miami on a new deal and play withLeBron James. Nevertheless, James hasn't committed to a return, and Houston has moved aggressively to secure a deal with Bosh, sources said.

NBA Live Talk - Special Guest: Bob Rathbun
in Basketball
We are very pleased and extremely honoured to have Atlanta Hawks play-by-play colour commentator, Bob Rathbun, join us on this week's edition of NBA Live Talk. Coming off an impressive campaign that saw them push the Indiana Pacers to seven games in the opening round of the playoffs, the Hawks are looking to take the next step and emerge as perennial championship contenders. Mike Budenholzer is set to enter his second season as the bench boss in Atlanta and his aggressive mindset has translated into success on the hardwood. The Hawks possess two of the NBA's premier big men in Paul Millsap and Al Horford. Jeff Teague has asserted himself as one of the league's elite point guards while Kyle Korver continues to tickle the twine from beyond the arc on a nightly basis.
The 2014-15 NBA schedule has been released! The Hawks will begin their season in Toronto against the defending Atlantic Division champion Toronto Raptors. As for the reigning NBA champion San Antonio Spurs, they will begin their pursuit of back-to-back championships on Tuesday, October 28, 2014 against cross-state rivals, the Dallas Mavericks. Kobe Bryant makes his highly anticipated return to the hardwood later that night as the Lakers host James Harden and the Houston Rockets.
The following evening, Wednesday, October 29, Derrick Rose makes his return to the Chicago Bulls as they take on Carmelo Anthony and the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden. The Knicks will then hop on a plane and travel to Cleveland where they will be greeted by LeBron James and his new-look Cavaliers in a nationally televised Eastern Conference showdown.

Yeah, YOU, Mr. Prophet-man!
You can be sure there is a nefarious plan behind anything I do.
Or a deal to get a free snack cake.
Re: Childress' playcalling
Prophet, my point was the fact that it may be considered a "good move" to run on 3rd and 8 to catch the defense off gaurd, but when it is a down that SHOULD be made (i.e. a 3rd n 1 with chestor having a great day) than that should be the obvious chioce regardless of what the defense is suggesting or how many men are stacked in the box. its not the genious of fakeing the other team out, its smash-mouth football that the vikes are made for IMO.
my example could be the steelers when the bus was in his prime. granted we dont have jerome, but the piont being, you knew they were going to run the ball. right down the opposing teams throats. and there was nothing those teams could do about it. just how demoralizing that was to the defense was evident.
and if i remember right, not many inside slants or TE drags or w/e were used, but little checkdowns to mewelde that got the vikings nowhere. was it good coverage by the lions, maybe, but thats the OC and HC job to make stuff happen. unlike alot of people think on the boards, i doubt its brad thats being hesitant to put it in there.

Re: Childress' playcalling
Great example, the Bus demoralizing teams when they knew what was happening.
Most of us have watched all the games at least once and we have all kind of speculation as to why didn't they call this play or that play.
I don't know.
A summary of the opinions as to why we have the offensive woes usually comes down to one of these topics:
2. O-line
3. WRs can't catch/run routes
4. Play calling (HC vs OC)
5. Newness of coaching staff/schemes
There are some more potential explanations but the more I think about it it appears that we are overanalyzing some of these points to no avail.
If I had to rank a hierarchichal ranking of offensive problems I would go with this ranking biggest problem to smallest:
4, 5, 3, 2, 1.
Probably a combination of these.
I'm going with time alone will solve many of the problems.
I'm confident in the determination and abilities of the coaching staff.
They are watching game film and breaking everything down and coming up with a plan.
Our coaching staff has a hunger for the game that is deeper than ours.
They will get the job done.
I am confident in that.
Many of our problems are perceived due to young fans wanting instant gratification and success.
That is how I see it.
Re: Childress' playcalling
Just my 2 cents that I wrote on another thread....
but probably belongs here instead...
Note to Coach Childress - The experiment should be over....maybe there was a reason that Coach Reid called the plays in Philly....
It is time to hand over the play calling to the O-Coordinator that you brought in and trust him to do the job!
You have enough on your plate in making sure everyone else is prepared for Sundays....
it is NOT a slap in the face to admit that your play calling leaves something to be desired....
Man up and trust your coaches!
Two weeks to prepare for the next game....maybe the success we have enjoyed on our first series each week can extend to the first half...not just one series!
Also, time to practice the jump ball in the corner to M. Robinson....
I still havent seen the 5'8" DB that is going to outjump him in the corner.....I'd much rather see the Packers miss the playoffs because of their talent then because of their injuries.

Re: Childress' playcalling
I am fine with the playcalling EXCEPT on 3rd down. We have this stupid philosohy of going long on 3rd and short and going short on 3rd and long. I also don't understand why we don't put Troy on a few more crossing patterns. If we can get him the ball in stride he will pick up some yards.
I live in Chicago. I hate to say it but our offense looks like the pathetic Bears offense from a few years ago. Strong running game, inconsistent WRs and short play calls on third and long.
Things are just not clicking in the passing game. BJ doesn't look as sharp as he did beginning of the season. Troy has trouble making some difficult catches. He has to make SOME of them. Not all. Taylor kicks ass but fumbles the ball. Robinson is not being used enough for some reason. mcmullen sure doesn't get a lot of plays for a guy who "Knows the system".Halo 4. Start another fight.
Re: Childress' playcalling
it was really nice to see hank baskett, the wide reciver we traded for mullenhead have another great game, seems like it was a good trade but not for us, still dont know why carter isnt playin, even tho he is a rookie, so is baskett and couldnt do any worseI BLEED THE COLOR PURPLE
Re: Childress' playcalling
i agree prophet, im so glad we have the seahawks after a bye. it seems our scripted offense is amazing.
to review your pionts, or over analyze them to no avail
1) QB- brad johnson is definately not our problems, unlike that joke thread seems to think. he might be hesitant, but i seriously doubt it like i previously stated. if anything he has saved us where culpepper wouldve killed us.
2)Oline- our oline played very well it seemed against the lions, but the unit needs to keep steping it up, but i dont see them as our problem. how they could be affecting our plays could be by not giving brad enough time, yet another possibilty.
3) WRs cant catch- that seems to be troys downside, but our receivers arent anything special. not saying they shouldnt be expected to exceed in the WCO, but our product is only equal to what our reactants are. chemistry, blah.
4) Play calling- one of my main points, but if a team runs a play correctly and to its full potential then you're good. its how efficiently you run plays, which could fall to our OC. then i go to point #5.
5) new coaches- i realize we have a BUNCH of new coaches, and that will eventually get better with time as they have gotten their feet wet for their first 5 games of the season. however, unlike the tice era, we have...good coaches. i agree that they can get the job done. except for you, ST coach. im still skeptical about you.
6) All new schemes- a point i think you combined with another, but a point that could very well be the answer to our offensive woes. we also have many new starters that do need to gel. alot of people think the gelling is over, but chemistry takes alot longer than just a few games. thats 11 guys that have to figure each other out.
a few optimistic points toward a new, exciting vikings season!

He has had 1 great game other than that his stats are about identical to McMullen's and in the thread comparing the 2 I didn't bother to mention the 3 passes that Baskett dropped yesterday, and if you take away the 87 yarder for a TD he had 2 receptions for 25 yards.
Lets Be more realistic!
By the way McMullen has caught every ball thrown his way and he has done everything the Vikes have asked!
What we've got here is failure to communicate.

Gunplay and Young Dro Get 'Krazy' in New Video
Gunplay and Young Dro join forces in the visual for 'Krazy.'
Gunplay and Young Dro join forces in the visual for 'Krazy.'
The MMG MCs connect on this speaker-shredding banger, off Gunplay's upcoming 'Living Legend' LP.
We've already visited Queens to speak with Fool's Gold's latest signees, World's Fair and this week we visit Tucson, Arizona to chop it up with Isaiah Toothtaker, a guy that knows a thing or two about putting work in. Check out Isaiah's story as a rapper, tattoo-artist, father and bare-knuckle brawler.
Did Gunplay escape a life sentence? Potentially.
In October, the rapper was put on house arrest while he faced charges of armed robbery, assault with a deadly weapon and aggravated assault from an incident last April which found him pulling a gun on his accountant
Gunplay is in a lot of trouble with the law right now, but that hasn't stopped the rapper from making music.
He released the new track "Drop" today, and the song ironically involves him running a quick "errand," which he obviously cannot do at the moment, as the M
Rapper Gunplay was reportedly released on a $150,000 bond earlier today, after being arrested for armed robbery last week.
"The state did not prove that Mr. Morales was a flight risk or a threat to the community," said his attorney. "He should be home with his family shortly. This is f
New details have emerged from a fight Gunplay had back in April, and things are not looking up for the "Rap Sheet" rapper. TMZ is reporting that Gunplay pulled a gun on his attorney and allegedly stole a cellphone and gold chain during the meeting.
Remember yesterday, when Gunplay turned himself in for armed robbery? Well the details of the robbery are now out. According to the police, he robbed a man at gunpoint back in April, taking his chain and cellphone, and striking him in the head.
Earlier today, Maybach Music Group affiliate Gunplay debuted a new song, "Rap Sheet," littered with verses centered on his felonious past. The dreadlocked rapper's effort comes as news hits that he must turn himself into authorities due to outstanding warrants.

Sugar Bowl Scuffle: Crazy Bama Chick Dive Bombs OU Fans
Posted by Videokie on Jan. 03, 2014
Posted by Videokie on Jan. 03, 2014
Wellwhatevernevermind- OMG wth did race have to do with anything? Last I'm seeing is the fact that you're making it about race. I have no problem with any race. Please!!! I like the fact you are trying to turn something into a thing about race. When in fact it's about oh a white woman from Alabama. No stereotyping here is there? I type very well thank you. Plus I was responding to someone else! But, thanks for responding! I'll put your comment in my what a loser file. Must be nice to stay at home and work on your grammar and proper punctuation. I'm sure you have plenty of time for that.
Bldr republican 260- no I don't teach my child violence. I was stirring the pot to see what da responses is see and....ding ding ding... You're the winner. Please the OU guys were classless for picking a fight with her son and spilling drinks on her daughters. So call her what you will...she could have went about it differently yes, but let's see how you'd react to drunk college guys being pricks to your kids. My son doesn't know violence, but he will know how to defend himself. But, geez get over yourself. Stop generalizing all Alabama fans.... All teams have their fanatical fans!!! You choose to open your mouths because people hate greatness. Lol :P
Whites sure know how to act in public.
That's one wacky lesbian!
She can't handle drinking had a girl like that once then jail. 242 PC
What did she do wrong? I thought this was normal arena behavior.
If the Okies started fighting her son and spilled beef on her two younger children I understand where the mother instincts can cause her to want to beat the shit out of someone
Good old alcohol screwing up a good day for others...
It makes wearing the White Ribbon (ending violence against women) kinda tough when you see women acting like this.
May be she is on drugs!
Where, she left the horse?
Definitely a Republican.
This is when okla. always makes fools out of the expected winner. sorry tide. http://kwn.me/n8pp
Bitch looked like Liu Kang with that bicycle kick
Get that stupid woman arrested. If that was a bloke he would have been on the floor with three cops sitting on his head.
the blue team is better! No, the red team is better! never ending nonsense that is sports.
Fiest! nok thit beach oot
Yer team aint fer!!
Bldr-republican really yes I am but I was a comment to see what people would say. Too spark a smart azz response. Guess what I figured it would not take long. Such an easy thing to do. No I don't teach my child violence at all! Especially over football!!! Yes, I love Football. Would I get into a fight over it...no!!! Plus don't down grade the south because of a few...how you should say(rednecks) put the rest in a bad light. And to roaldee... I'm sure you would...but guess what? I'm not married!!!
At least the OU fans stayed classy and didn't fight back.
Obviously she was drunk.... it's not that cool to make a complete ass of your self while at a game...
go home grandma, you're drunk
Sorry guys most of us bama fans aren't like that but we have the few that shoot each other after the bama auburn game
I'm shocked, college football usually brings out the best in people, especially when you have intellectual powerhouses like Alabama and Oklahoma involved.
@it_will_be_alright....@uBlow is correct that fool should have been arrested and charged! A crime is a crime wether it inflicts damage on someone or not. To say that a man could inflict more damage so he should be judged more harshly is insane. There are laws and if you violate them you should pay the consequence regardless of what type of damage you ultimately cause. Her intent was to cause damage so she should have paid a price for acting on that intent. If a thief takes $200 from a millionaires him, is the rich man hurt? No. So should the thief be charged? Yes! The double standard exist but in this case uBlow is correct....,lock her up! Lol!
too much bud lite for that lightweight
Know what's amazing? Â If a guy did that, they'd be arrested and charged. Â But this bitch wasn't even scratched. Â Love the double standard that both men and women expect. Â
ROLL TIDE!!! buhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!
Who else thought she wanted the D?
A bunch of people get together in a stadium and drink alcohol while watching an active and (sometimes) violent sport..... and this surprises you? Â Was this the first time you ever went to a live game or something?
Shit, we take our hockey seriously up in the GWN, even the crowd goes ready for a fight...
ah lora I'd let u jump me anytime. I would enjoy it so much. But u have to be quick or your husband might see...
Go nanna
She is getting her 15 min of fame.
Good thing you got your potato out to film this.
College football fans are inbred rednecks
People need to get all the info on a situation before they just go off spitting out whatever. I hate when things circulate and they are fake.
shes a peace of sh1t
I would have jumped harder. Mess with my kids and fear me!!!!
@Kent-Walters-601Â ...notice how everyone else put the one going crazy in her place... yeahÂ
@Lora-Slaten-451Â Would you say the same for black people or mexicans? Â Most of the break community continues to perpetuate racial prejudice with claims that stereotypes are real cause they think stereotypes are based on reality. Â No, stereotypes are based on perception, there are no definitives. Â In any case, I appreciate your sentiment, but it's hindered when you cannot write correctly. Â
@Lora-Slaten-451Â This was quite possibly the most difficult paragraph to read in the history of the Break.com comments section. Â
you're an IDIOT!Â
@uBlow Most guys are much more coordinated and much stronger than someone like her. They can actually land some blows and inflict damage. You just used some ridiculous generalization to say that there is a double standard. I acknowledge that a double standard exists but it's simply not applicable in this case.
@Mactabilis You have to mention that this is in the nosebleeds.
@Geoffrey-Ivonnet-370 Seemed like normal Americans to me.
@Lora-Slaten-451Â OOOhhh! Â Easy to be tough from behind a keyboard, isn't it.
Do you realize the hypocrisy of your statement - teach your kids to respond to violence with violence.

Backed by industry heavyweights, SPECpower_ssj2008 will be a building block for future power-performance standards
Over the past year or so, there's been plenty of head-scratching as to how to meaningfully measure a server's power performance: that is, how efficiently it uses energy to do its work. This kind of metric is important as datacenter operators struggle to keep energy costs down and free up floor space -- without sacrificing service quality.
Plenty of folks have invested resources and brainpower in the task, from independent analysts such as Neal Nelson and Associates and InfoWorld's chief technologist Tom Yager to large-scale organizations such as The Green Grid and even the EPA.
Thus, I was rather intrigued to learn this week that SPEC (Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation) has announced what it deems "the first industry-standard benchmark that measures power consumption in relation to performance for server-class computers." It's called SPECpower_ssj2008, a name that doesn't so much roll off the tongue as ooze -- but what's in a name, anyway?
Driving toward meaningful metrics
Before digging into the nitty-gritty of SPECpower_ssj2008, I want to provide some context as to why a server power-performance benchmark has proven elusive. As I said, plenty of smart people have been trying to devise one, and at first blush, it may seem like a deceptively simple task.
I like to compare it to the MPG measurement used to assess vehicles' fuel efficiency. You simply divide the number of miles you've traveled by the number of gallons used, and voilá, you have a meaningful measurement with which you can easily compare vehicular fuel efficiency. A high MPG, such as that you might get from a hybrid sedan, is deemed good. The low MPG you might get from an SUV is bad. Easy.
But wait: Perhaps it's not quite so cut and dry. Is it really meaningful to compare the gas mileage of a hybrid to that of an SUV if you don't factor in how the respective vehicles are being used? If you're comparing the two when the application is carrying three passengers and light baggage down Highway 5 from San Francisco to Los Angeles, the hybrid wins, hands down.

Official says smoking caused Manchester apartment fire
The fire, which started in Room 210, burned an upholstered love seat and triggered smoke alarms and recently installed sprinklers. Several apartments had to be evacuated, and four apartments were rendered temporarliy uninhabitable.
Meanwhile, police said that the resident of the apartment, Dave Desrochers, 45, returned to the Pariseau about 8:20 p.m. Tuesday, looking to go home. He had been taken to the hospital by ambulance for smoke inhalation.
"He wanted to go back there, obviously, because it's his home," said Sgt. Craig Rousseau. "They said sorry, you can't."

Eric Holder Gets Busy: Enron's Skilling May Be Released From Prison Over A Decade EarlySubmitted by Tyler Durden on 04/04/2013 11:56 -0400
Former Enron CEO Jeff Skilling may be the latest beneficiary of the culture of pervasive permitted, even at times encouraged, crime. After being sentenced to prison for 24 years in the aftermath of Enron's spectacular 2001 bankruptcy, the former CEO may be released after serving well less than half of his term. As a result his prison term, which scheduled to end in 2028, may be cut by more than half as a result of a new agreement with the Department of Justice. It appears that AG Eric Holder is so busy not prosecuting Wall Street for being Too Big To Prosecute, he has decided it is far wiser to spend his time productively by commuting the sentences of convicted financial felons, because apparently there is nothing more important to do.

Now that The Show is over, we are left with the equivalent of a Sunday morning hangover following a binge of promises and lies. After the Supreme Court upheld the PPACA, a spate of mergers rippled through the managed health care realm, to ostensibly cope with smaller profit margins and 'compliance costs.' But really, it's because each firm wants to corner as much as possible of the market, in as many states as it can, to garner more premiums and control more disbursements and prices at the upcoming insurance 'exchanges.' Meanwhile the more hospitals are viewed as profit centers, the more their Chairmen will cut costs to maximize returns, and not care quality. They will seeks ways to sell underperforming assets, programs or services and reduce the number of nonessential employees, burdening those that remain. And if insurance companies can manage doctors directly, they can control not just costs, but treatment – our treatment. It's not an imaginary government takeover anyone should fear; but a very real, here-and-now insurance company takeover, to which no one in Washington is paying attention.

Barclays Fined Record Amount For Channelling Enron, Manipulating California's Electricity MarketSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/01/2012 12:09 -0400
It just is not Barclays' year. After being exposed (so far the only one) as a ringleader in a massive LIBOR-rigging scandal which cost Bob Diamond his job, yesterday the British bank added insult to injury, after the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) fined it $470 million - the largest penalty ever levied by the energy regulator, and even larger than the bank's LIBOR fine - for getting caught doing what Enron got caught doing about a decade ago: manipulating California's electricity markets. Although while the former ended up being the biggest corporate bankruptcy at the time, led to the end of one of the nation's largest auditors and sparked a scandal so great it was all corporate America spoke for about for the next year, this time the news has come and gone, and nobody cares. Perhaps this is to be expected: in a time when none other than the central bank intervenes each and every day in every single market to preserve the "wealth effect", habituation to epic corporate manipulation of every imaginable kind is perfectly normal.

The Top 15 Economic 'Truth' DocumentariesSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 10/14/2012 16:55 -0400
On a regular basis we are placated by commercials to satisfy our craving to know which bathroom tissue is the most absorbent; debates 'infomercials' assuaging our fears over which vice-presidential candidate has the best dentist; and reality-shows that comfort our 'at least I am not as bad as...' need; there is an inescapable reality occurring right under our propagandized nose (as we noted here). Economic Reason has gathered together the Top 15 'reality' economic documentaries - so turn-on, tune-in, and drop-out of the mainstream for a few hours...

On Wall Street Crime Pays - A 350% IRR To Be ExactSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/07/2012 19:59 -0400
Previously we showed that when it comes to Wall Street's returns, the 8% market return benchmark that every first year analyst finds in Ibbotson's is for naive amateurs. With corporate lobbying returning anywhere between 5,900% and 77,500%, the real money is to be made in the buying and selling of politicians. Yet in our day and age, when information propagates rapidly and when political muppets can be exposed for the Wall Street purchased frauds they are, lobbying is getting increasingly more complicated. Which leaves one other high returning "investment", which unlike lobbying is completely riskless when one is a Wall Street firm: crime. But not just any crime, the type of crime where a firm settles "without admitting or denying guilt" and in the process is slapped with a fine that barely covers the government's legal fees. Case in point: U.S. v. Morgan Stanley, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York Case #11-6875, where MS was punished with the epic disgorgement penalty of $4.8 million. Of course, the fact that Morgan Stanley, who did not admit wrongdoing, generated profits of $21.6 million, is merely a triviality. But a useful one: it allows to calculate that on Wall Street crime does pay, and the IRR is in give or take 350%.

Enron Redux Has JPMorgan Probed For Abusive Energy TradingSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 07/03/2012 10:10 -0400
While the CIO was clearly not populated by the smartest guys in the room, it appears the bank that just can't get a break has hit another snag as the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission is probing them over 'bidding practices' and abusive trading in California and Midwest energy markets. Via Bloomberg:
Is there a wondrous capital structure here for Bethany Mclean to investigate? We can only assume that JEDI Morgan is 'not the Chewco FERC is looking for'.

Picture, if you will, the site of a forest two years after a wild fire. In my mind's eye, the scene is dotted with burned out pine hulks and heaps of ash, but is dominated by green undergrowth and leafy seedlings. While this might be consistent with the sites of eastern and northwestern blazes, fires in dry climates leave a different, more permanent, impact on the landscape.

After walking into the baggage claim area of Palm Springs Airport, I knew from the heap of camping equipment that greeted me that my spring break had begun. I introduced myself to Tyler, our group coordinator, and was shortly on the road to Joshua Tree with seven other students.
The Alternative Spring Break to the Everglades changed my life in so many ways. Not only did I meet an amazing group of people who I made real, lasting connections with, I learned about an ecosystem so unique and different than what I had ever experienced before.
The Everglades is a beautiful place and the national park really shows the diversity of the area.

We worked at Lake Chekika yesterday, clearing brush and invasive plant species like the Brazilian Pepper Tree. We worked so hard the rangers had to kick us out—we were tiring them out! It was a good thing though because the pepper tree has overtaken the park and the native plant species.
Photos by Erika Barker
Two days have passed so far and I find myself more in love with this beautiful diverse ecosystem than ever before. I have never seen skies so blue or a sun so bright in my life.
If you're in New York this month, make sure to check out this awesome Alternative Spring Break billboard at the American Eagle Outfitters store in Times Square. The 15,000 square foot LED display will run images from Alternative Spring Break four times per hour for the entire month of March. Thanks to American Eagle Outfitters for giving us some bright lights in the big city!
SCA and American Eagle Outfitter's Alternative Spring Break kicked off yesterday with the arrival of 30 excited crew members at Everglades National Park! Over the next four weeks, 120 college students will be working in the Everglades and at Joshua Tree National Park to conserve some of the country's most beautiful and endangered wild areas.
Washington, DC (PRWEB) February 29, 2012
The Teton Mountains. The Mojave Desert. The Everglades. These are not your typical Spring Break destinations. Then again, these are not your typical students.
Volunteers from colleges and universities across the U.S.
Grand opening is now over. The dignitaries have come and gone and we emerged basically unscathed from the hurricane. Now that things have calmed down enough to write a new blog the utter insanity of the last week comes into even better focus.
The first major hurdle that came up was all of the crap in the basement of our education building.
Art, education, and community made a comeback at the Prairie Wetlands Learning Center this weekend. It was "Return to Prairie Days" (a Fergus Falls Signature Event, proclaims the town's event calendar), bringing students, artists, locals and outsiders to the refuge for a pageant, duck banding, butterfly tagging, and prairie planting.
Generally, when we think of science we think of lab coats and test tubes. Sparkling, sterile laboratories where PhDs churn out new truths. At least when it comes to most environmental sciences this is not the case. While a large part of science will always take place in the lab, it has to start in the field.
One of my goals for working an SCA internship this summer was to immerse myself in wilderness.
Captures are the most interesting part of this job, and the best opportunity to improve wildlife field skills. We have done a few captures in the last two weeks. I was involved with two of them, Yellow 70 and Orange 66.
Yellow 70 was a 7-year old male bear that we put a radio collar on. And we finally captured bear 3565.
WOW! I cannot believe it has been a YEAR since I packed my bags, left the great state of Texas, and moved to Maryland to begin my SCA adventure at the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal National Historical Park.
Time really does fly by when you're constantly learning, engaging in new activities, and truly enjoying your job.
Some weeks you've got to move boxes. Moving is one of those inevitably dreadful tasks that we all must undertake throughout our lives. It gets even more interesting when the stuff your moving isn't yours and the stuff was packed by yet another person. That's the situation we've been in this week up at Schoodic. Unfortunately the construction up here took longer than planned.
Monarch week has begun at Prairie Wetlands Learning Center! Four generations of monarchs have hatched this summer from their eggs on Minnesota's milkweeds. The generation, which will be winging it to Mexico and other wintering sites, have emerged from their chrysalis on the prairie. Dozens can easily be found flitting from flower to flower as they fatten up on nectar before their flight.
Climbing Mount McKinley: The Program
The program was developed by an SCA intern a few years ago. It included a simulation of climbing Mount McKinley. One of the interpretation coaches wrote up her program into a "template" so that it could be presented by other interpreters after she left. The template was further developed last year by another SCA intern and a seasonal interpretation ranger.
The Minnesota Waterfowl Association's annual Woodie Camp is taking place here at the Prairie Wetlands Learning Center. For the first time this summer, the Center is abuzz with activity. Its dorms filled with campers, counselors and instructors. The campers are 13-15 year olds with an interest and some experience with waterfowl hunting.
Today we had the end of season barbeque where each department presents what they've accomplished for the year. I presented the brood survey portion of the power point. It was a pretty good feeling to share all that we've done this summer.
Base camp is where climbers begin their climb on Mount McKinley, the tallest mountain in North America at 20,320 ft. Base camp is at 7,200 ft on the Kahiltna Glacier. Denali National Park and Preserve Mountaineering Rangers from the Talkeetna Ranger Station are camped here during the climbing season from late April until early July.

Court documents revealed new details Tuesday in the case of an Asheville mother accused of killing her two children with a hatchet and then trying to kill herself with it.
Police said they were called to 40 Shannon Dr. on Sunday after they received a call for help.
According to a search warrant, police arrived at the home to find Naiyana Patel injured inside the home. It said Patel's children, 8-year-old Jiya Patel and 4-year-old Piya Patel, were also inside the home. It said Jiya was dead, and Piya died later at Mission Hospital.
The document said the children's father, Lalo Patel, was in the yard when officers arrived.
According to the document, Lalo Patel told investigators that he found his wife in the floor hitting herself in the head with a hatchet. He told investigators that he grabbed the hatchet and threw it outside. He said that he saw his two children lying on the floor covered in blood. He said he then went outside and called for help.
The search warrant said that when Naiyana Patel was interviewed by investigators said claimed that "the ghost killed her children," and that she did not want to live and did not want surgery.
Police said they found a bloody hatchet lying on the front porch of the home.
Naiyana Patel was in the hospital Tuesday afternoon, recovering from her injuries. Police said she will likely be charged with two counts of first-degree murder upon her release.
Friends of the family said Naiyana Patel recently had a child that wasn't carried to term and had been suffering from postpartum depression.

|I live in a state where I cannot receive Ka Bluey blueberry plants. I did, however, find a source for Ka Bluey blueberry seeds--I think. The seeds that I received are the biggest blueberry seeds I've ever seen. They are approximately 3/32 to 1/8 of an inch and they are light brown/tan. Their size reminds me of grape seeds. If anyone is familiar with what Ka Bluey blueberry seeds look like, I would be grateful for the information.
Follow-Up Postings:
|Won't be the cultivar if seed instead of plants. Size sounds too large for blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum or other Vaccinium).
|Yes, Sally14, take note of what bboy said about the seeds. It's not possible to grow named varieties of blueberries from seed. Whoever sold you them either didn't know this or they did know and have conned you.
- Posted by ken_adrian MI z5 (My Page) on Sun, Mar 16, 14 at 10:24
|i wonder why delivery of live plants is restricted????
arent you kinda defeating the purpose of such ... by importing seeds ...
e.g if they are invasive to your region .... or host to bugs or disease that could wipe out one of ORs many horticultural industries????
|The concern is over certain strains of blueberry scorch virus.

Albany, NY (Sports Network) - Lamont Jones knocked down 10-of-11 shots at the free-throw line, finishing with 19 points, as the Iona Gaels captured a 66-62 win over the Siena Saints in Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference play at the Times Union Center.
Also scoring in double figures for the Gaels (8-6, 2-1 MAAC), as they won their second straight and the third in the last four outings, were Sean Armand with 14 points, David Laury 12, to go along with a team-best nine rebounds, followed by A.J. English with 11 points off the bench.
The Saints (2-12, 0-3) were paced by O.D. Anosike who registered yet another double-double with 19 points and a game-high 15 boards, but still the squad suffered a 10th consecutive setback. Rob Poole accounted for 18 points and eight boards for the hosts.
Both teams shot about 40 percent from the floor in the first half, but Siena was able to open with a 6-0 run before having to battle back to a 29-24 lead at the break.
In the second half the lead reached double digits for the Saints several times, but down the stretch it was a series of free throws by Jones, English and Taaj Ridley that secured the four-point win for the visitors.
In a game that featured three ties and 13 lead changes, Iona picked up the win despite shooting only 37.9 percent from the floor.

This year's theme "Did You Know…" provides a fun way to explore America's national parks. For example, did you know that there are five national parks in Frederick County?
National Park Week is a good time to explore the national parks in Frederick's backyard - Monocacy National Battlefield, Catoctin Mountain Park, Appalachian National Scenic Trail, Chesapeake & Ohio Canal National Historical Park, and Potomac Heritage National Scenic Trail. Visit these five national parks throughout the week and collect passport stamps to earn an Explorer Ranger pin at the Monocacy National Battlefield Visitor Center. The Visitor Center will also host a special exhibit on national park trivia.
Monocacy National Battlefield Visitor Center is open seven days a week, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
