I pulled the trigger watching the bullet fly through the air, as if in slow motion. That's when something I didn't expect happened. Louis jumped in front of Niall, taking the bullet for himself. I dropped to my knees as I glared at my best friend dead on the ground. Zayn screamed loudly in terror as Niall fainted falling into a pool of blood that quickly filled the room. This wasn't how it was supposed to happen. IT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO BE HIM!
Tears quickly fell down my face as I sharp pain through my chest. I turned my head around to see Liam looking at me apologetically. I knew he had to do it & in my final moments I realized how mad I have become. I quickly dropped to the ground paralyzed unable to move. I felt myself slowly being drained of all life. I closed my eyes & breathed my final words, "I'm sorry."
Harry walked through the door. "Sorry I'm late guys! Was Katie surp-" he cut himself off as he looked at the scene going on in the living room. Everyone looked up at Harry in shock as Liam got down on one knee pulling off the realistic mask of who they all thought was Harry to reveal Mitt Romney. Everyone gasped except for Katie as she stood up laughing maniacally. "And it all went according to plan."

The Snob Talks Government Shutdown on HLN
Tuesday, October 1, 2013 at 9:59AM in The Snob
I was in Jane Velez-Mitchell's the Lion's Den last night on HLN as our government hurled towards a shutdown. Thanks to my good friend, Dr. Jason Johnson, there's actual video capture of it. So if anyone missed the shoutfest the first go-round, here you go!

If suddenly one day in the mirror you see that this is not the face you have always been accustomed to seeing, you will go mad - the balloon is missing. The face is constantly changing, but the change is so slow that you never recognize it. Just go back home and look at the album of your childhood. You know that it is you, which is why you don't see much difference, but just ponder over it, how much you have changed. The face is not you, because deep down something has remained permanent in you. And your name can be changed; I do it every day. I go on changing your names just to give you the feeling that the name is just a balloon fastened to you, it can be changed, so that you get disidentified with the name.
The ego is nothing but a false substitute for the self. So when you know who you are, there is no possibility of the ego arising again.
You ask me, "Can the thought of enlightenment create an ego?" The thought can create it if it is only a thought. Then in fact it is not good to say that it can create it: the ego is already there, the thought is already thought by the ego. If the ego has disappeared and you have really become enlightened - and that is the meaning of enlightenment: the shift from the ego to the self, the shift from the unreal to the real, the shift from the mind to no mind, the shift from the body to the embodied - once you know who you are, I cannot see that somebody can persuade you to tie a balloon to your feet to remember yourself. It is impossible.
An enlightened person cannot be egoistic, whatsoever he says. Their assertions may look very egoistic to you. Krishna says in the Gita to Arjuna, to his disciple, "Leave everything and come to my feet. I am the very God who has created this world." Very egoistic. Can you find a more egoistic person? Listen to what Jesus says: "My father in heaven and I are both one." He is saying, "I am God." Very egoistic. Mansoor declared, "I am truth, the very truth, the ultimate truth" - "ana'l haq." Mohammedans were very much annoyed; they killed him. Jews killed Jesus. Very egoistic assertions? The Upanishads say, "Aham brahmasmi" - "I am the whole, the total."
But they are not egoistic; you misunderstand them. Whatsoever they are saying is true.
I have heard about one man who was worried very much about his inferiority complex, so he went to an Adlerian psychoanalyst. And he said to the psychoanalyst, "I am suffering very much from an inferiority complex. Can you help me?"
The psychologist looked at him and said, "But you are inferior. It is not a question of inferiority complex; you are inferior, so what can I do?"
When Krishna says, "I am God," he is - he is not being egoistic. What he can do? If he says, "I am not," that will be untrue. If he behaves politely, as the so-called mahatmas do - that I am just dust underneath your feet - he will be untrue, he will be false. He will be hiding the fact. When Mansoor says, "I am the truth," he is.
But the problem is not with Mansoor, Krishna, or Jesus; the problem is with you. You cannot understand the language of no ego. You go on interpreting it in your own ways.
Let me tell you one anecdote:

Mechanisms of synaptic competition at developing neuromuscular synapses
We are studying the mechanisms underlying synaptic competition during neural development, using neuromuscular synapses as a model system. Using transgenic mice in which the dynamics of synaptic vesicle recycling and trafficking can be monitored in vivo, we are testing the hypothesis that activity modulates presynaptic vesicle recycling and trafficking, affecting synaptic structure, strength and survival.The results of these experiments will provide fundamentally new insights into mechanisms by which activity changes synaptic function and neural circuitry during normal development, and contribute to understanding of developmental disorders such as epilepsy, autism and mental retardation. Click here for more details.
Mechanisms of neuron-astrocyte signaling underlying synapse formation and function
We are studying the mechanisms by which astrocytes modulate inhibitory synapse formation and function in the developing central nervous system. Previous work and preliminary studies in hippocampal neurons in vitro suggest that astrocytes release soluble signals into the media (astrocyte conditioned media, ACM) that increase inhibitory neuron axon elongation, branching as well as synaptogenesis, by the criteria of increasing the number of GABAergic presynaptic terminals colocalized with postsynaptic GABAAR clusters (Elmariah et al., 2004; 2005; Hughes et al., 2010). These data lead to the hypothesis that secreted signals from astrocytes mediate the formationn of inhibitory synapses during neural development. The results of these experiments will extend our understanding of how inhibitory synapses are formed during neural development, and may also contribute to understanding of disorders of development such as epilepsy, autism and mental retardation. Click here for more details.
Pathophysiologic mechanisms of CNS autoimmunity
Novel forms of encephalitis were recently identified by Dr. Josep Dalmau in the Dept. of Neurology, Hospital Clinic and University of Barcelona, Spain. These diseases are associated with antibodies to the NR1 subunit of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, the GluR1 / GluR2 subunits of the AMPA receptor, among several other cell surface proteins. These disorders were initially identified in young women with ovarian teratoma who presented with psychosis or memory problems that evolved to severe complications requiring prolonged intensive care support. Prompt recognition of this disorder is important because patients often improve with treatment.
With Dr. Dalmau and his lab, we are working to study the binding of patients' antibodies to NMDA or AMPA receptor clusters at synapses formed in cultures of rodent hippocampal neurons. We are also determining how cerebrospinal fluid from affected patients affects synapse structure and function, how NMDA receptors are cleared from synapses, and whether these affects are reversible. Collaborative efforts are underway to generate and characterize animal models of this human disease.

I'm making an animated GIF showing some different color mixes for our satellite imagery. A GIF can only have 256 colors, so you want to make sure they're the most important ones in the image – otherwise you get banding or noticeable dithering.
As I iterate on the GIF, I notice places that look bad and add little clips of them in true color to a palette image. Then I convert the palette image to 256 colors and tell the GIF converter to use only colors that appear in it. Thus this image has become a little scrapbook showing my priorities for color fidelity in the animation. Regions that I'm extra worried about appear more than once.

Tonight will be the second of four meetings with the Flyers and the last at home. The last time the two teams met, the Flyers chased Ryan Miller from his net just 6 minutes into the game after he allowed 3 goals. The Sabres lost that game 3-2. The Sabres and their fans are hoping for a different outcome this time around.

EDMONTON - Stephen Yakimets has a passion for rediscovering the past, particularly if the topic is trains.
Yakimets was among dozens of people who helped share Edmonton's past with hundreds of visitors attending the Historic Festival and Open Doors Edmonton launch Sunday.
The festival, now in its 18th year, runs through July 13 with events in Edmonton and surrounding areas. The launch put a spotlight on Fort Edmonton Park, the Beverly Historical Society and a number of Edmonton's cultural communities including Indonesian, Polish, Arab, Thai, Chinese and African organizations.
For Yakimets, the thrill of the festival is in learning about old, and sometimes unknown, stories.
"You discover there's all this hidden railway history," he said.
It might be hard to imagine today, but the popular Mill Creek Ravine path was the first railway track that linked Strathcona to Edmonton, Yakimets noted. Built in 1899, it connected passengers and freight to the North Saskatchewan riverbank where the John Walter Ferry would carry passengers and goods across the river.
"The bike path in the ravine was the former train track," Yakimets said, and cyclists, joggers and walkers are travelling a historic route each time they use the paths.
One particular group in Edmonton was a major contributor to railway operations. Nii Koney, executive director of the Nile Valley Foundation, said formerly enslaved black migrants who came here through the underground railroad made up the majority of porters in the railway business in the area. Although they were free, they faced racism here, Koney said.
"When black people first came here, they were not allowed in churches," Koney said.
Shiloh Baptist Church, built 110 years ago, became a cultural hub in the city. Black peoples' histories, he said, are often passed down through gospel music. "We tell our story through music."
Peter Wong, who works with the Chinese Benevolent Society, has found archival research as a way to keep history alive. He displayed archival photos of Chinatown around 97th Street, including a black-and-white picture from 1909 of the Chinese Community Arc on Jasper Ave.
"The first recorded Chinese person in Edmonton was someone running a laundry around 1895," says Wong, whose father immigrated to Canada not long after, in 1911.
As visitors passed between the exhibits, three children gathered around Todd Houseman, an Aboriginal Peoples interpreter from Fort Edmonton Park.
"Bison were very sacred to my ancestors, the Cree and Blackfoot," Houseman said, pointing to the teeth on his necklace that he pulled from a bison skull.
Judith Gagnon, the mother of two boys fascinated by Houseman's necklace, said she hopes to attend other festival events.
"I think it is important to get to know a little more about the (history) of the city they live in."
Highlights of the Historic Festival and Open Doors Edmonton:
— Humberstone Mine online Exhibit Launch: July 7, 7 -8 p.m. at the Beverly History Interpretive Centre, 10906 40 St., Edmonton.

KECH 93.5 Filmmaker Interviews
Click the link below to listen to interviews with Jeremy Tischer, Annie Eastman and Allison Shigo. A big thanks to KECH 93.5 fm!
Annie Eastman
Healing Hands of Joy: A sneak peak with Allison Shigo
A Walk to Beautiful is a film that follows five women in Ethiopia and their transformation after having surgery to repair their obstetric fistula. This is an issue that upwards of three million women worldwide suffer from, both physically as well as emotionally, as they are pushed out of their communities with their ailment. Allison Shigo, co-producer of the film, was so affected by the crisis in Ethiopia that she co-founded Healing Hands of Joy, a program designed to educate mothers about fistula, and reintegrate fistula survivors into society with educational and therapeutic methods.
On Tuesday March 4th, Allison Shigo will be sharing her Emmy award winning film A Walk To Beautiful as a lead into our Festival this year. We had the privilege of catching up with her for a peak into her exciting work. See below for a snippet of the interview.
Q: Was the filming of A Walk to Beautiful your first experience in Ethiopia?
A: Filming A Walk to Beautiful was my first time traveling to sub-sahara Africa and I feel in love with Ethiopia immediately. The countryside is beautiful, the people so friendly and kind and the experience unforgettable. At the time, I never dreamed I'd have the opportunity to return and build a center for fistula survivors.
Q: A Walk to Beautiful was a hugely successful film - beautiful, moving and educational. How has your life changed since its success?
A: Working on A Walk to Beautiful changed my life dramatically. After spending time with Ethiopian women suffering from fistula, I felt called to work to eradicate fistula and support the social reintegration of fistula survivors. At the time, there were very few programs assisting fistula survivors post-surgery, and no programs that believed that these strong women could join the fight to end fistula by educating their communities. Over time I realized this work could not be part-time. I decided to leave my job in 2010 to work full-time to establish the Safe Motherhood Ambassador training program in Ethiopia. Ethiopia has become my home away from home...i would like to be here full-time one day once we have a full-time fundraiser to help me in the US.
Q: Elaborate on some of the educational and therapeutic methods employed by Healing Hands of Joy that are important to the 'whole' healing of a fistula patient.
A: Education and counseling are vital in the holistic care we provide. Many of the women we work with have been married at a very young age, 10-13 and have had no opportunity for education. Our literacy training teaches them how to write their name for the first time, which empowers them. One SMA said of the training "my mind has become bright." Psychological and Spiritual counseling are also very important in their healing process. These women have been outcast by their families and communities and in some cases considered "cursed" by God. They have dealt with abandonment, divorce and anxiety over thinking they will never be cured. Our center also serves as a "retreat" where we provide a loving home environment, beds, water and meals that are difficult to come by in the rural Ethiopian countryside.
Check out http://www.healinghandsofjoy.com/ for more info on this amazing organization. And don't forget to come to the Community Library on March 4th at 6 p.m. for Allison's presentation.
The 7th annual Family of Woman Film Festival announces 2014 film line-up
- Details
- Published: 21 January 2014
Sun Valley, IDAHO—The 7th annual Family of Woman Film Festival in Sun Valley will take place March 7-9, 2014, at the Sun Valley Opera House. The festival supports the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), which works in over 150 countries to achieve a world where every pregnancy is wanted, every childbirth is safe and every young person's potential is fulfilled.
"This year's films were selected to represent a broad range of what the festival theme, Women and Education, might mean," said Peggy Elliott Goldwyn festival co-chair. "While Anita Hills speaks to the power of truth, a small girl in Afghanistan only has a fantasy of school and an illiterate slum-dweller in Brazil finds life itself has given her an education."
Films for the 2014 Family of Woman Film Festival include "Anita" U.S. (2013) by Freida Lee Mock, "Rafea, Solar Mama" (2012) by Mona Eldaief and Jehane Noujaim, Jordan, "Tall as the Baobab Tree" (2012) by Jeremy Teicher, Senegal, and "Bay of All Saints" (2012) by Annie Eastman, Brazil and "Buddha Collapsed Out of Shame" (2007) by Hana Makhmalbaf, Iran.
"Anita" is an acclaimed feature documentary film by Academy Award-winner and Sun Valley resident Freida Lee Mock. Now a distinguished law professor, in 1991, Anita Hill appeared before the Senate Judicial Committee during the confirmation hearing of U.S. Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas. Public reaction to her testimony helped create groundbreaking legislation against workplace sexual harassment.
"Rafea, Solar Mama" documents the real-life story of Rafea, a Bedouin woman who struggles against tradition and society as she seeks to become the first solar engineer in Jordan. Living with her daughters in one of Jordan's poorest desert villages on the Iraqi border, Rafea travels to India to attend the Barefoot College, where illiterate grandmothers from around the world are trained in six months to be solar engineers.
"Tall as the Baobab Tree" is a feature length dramatic film shot in Senegal and is the remarkable result of a student Academy Award-nominated film by Jeremy Teicher. Rooted in reality, the film tells the story of Coumba and her little sister Debo who are the first to leave their family's remote African village to attend school. But when an accident suddenly threatens their family's survival, their father decides to sell 11-year-old Debo into an arranged marriage.
"Bay of All Saints" is a feature documentary filmed over six years by Annie Eastman in Brazil. Through an introduction by a handyman, who became an integral part of the story, Eastman met Geni, Jesus and Doña Maria, three single mothers, who, though illiterate, found their voices and roles as leaders in the ongoing fight to save their stilt community on the Bay from destruction.
"Buddha Collapsed Out of Shame," is a dramatic feature length film from Afghanistan. Amidst the rubble from statues of Buddha blown up by the Taliban, poor families live in caves at the foot of the cliffs. Baktay, a six-year-old Afghan girl is challenged to go to school by her neighbor's son who proudly reads his lessons. Finding the money to buy a precious notebook and taking her mother's lipstick for a pencil, Baktay sets out. On her way, she is harassed by boys playing games that mimic the terrible violence they have witnessed.
"The Family of Woman Film Festival presents the clear need to educate and empower women and girls for the future of the world," said Stephanie Freid-Perenchio festival co-chair. "Every year for the past seven years, our films portray this mandate—the challenges women and their families face and their successes."

Sometimes, when life gets me so stressed out, and NOTHING is clicking, and the kids are fighting, and no one wants to go to bed on time when all I want to do is end the day so that I can start fresh with a new day in the morning...sometimes in moments like that, one of my kids will snap me back into the land of gratitude by a sweet comment. The other day it was my two year old, when I was pushing her in a swing at the park, she kept telling me "higher mommy! higher!" and I really just wanted to go home because of the day I was having, but she kept wanting more and more pushes...and then she smiled up at the sky, her head thrown back with hair blowing wildly, and she said to me, "Mommy...this makes me happy!" and I swear, just the innocence and simplicity of her comment brought tears to my eyes. I laughed and said, "This makes you happy?" and she said, "Yea. I SO happy!" and I said, "You know what makes ME happy?" and she said, "What" and I said, "Pushing you in the swing makes me so happy!" and she said, "I love you, Mommy"
and my day was suddenly better.
Just like that.
Happy Easter, Erin :)

That is adorable and so so sweet!
Ours was horrible as well - the boys were arguing, CJ was extremely unthankful for his Easter basket, I got no pictures of said Easter basket.....we had to take the basket away....oh gosh it was annoyingly frustrating. oh well. Ours ended much the same way, though, Derek was in bed, and CJ said he wanted me to sleep with him and never ever let go. Guess who got snookered into sleeping with the octopus-like 3 year old? :)

This made me get all teared up! Such a sweet little thing for her to remember! I love it!
- April 25, 2011 at 7:18 AM
Just precious!
When Ellie's other front tooth does fall out be sure to get a super close-up of her face and toothless smile. I'm sure your will, but there is nothing cuter. I had professional pictures taken like that and have all of my kids toothless portraits hanging up.

So sweet! I love those good conversations with my kids. The things they think about and worry about is so real to them.
Hope Kole is feeling better.

And you are a great mom for capitalizing on that moment with Ellie rather than rushing her to bed. I know that when I make that choice to seize those times with my kids they always, always end up being the BEST part of that day.

Aww, Erin...what a sweet little moment! It sure is tough when you are SO CLOSE to having them all in bed for the night and you are SO CLOSE to being able to actually stop being mom for a second and finally punch out for the night. What a great way to end the day. So precious. Thanks for sharing.

Very sweet post Erin! Had me in tears! Sorry to hear you had a rough weekend, but so glad that it turned around for you with your sweet little Ellie!! I appreciate your honesty and how you appreciate the good and the bad moments, your kids are very lucky!
I've had a few of those moments lately with my kids and I'm feeling very sentimental as they grow up! Hope you have better days ahead!

I love it! That Ellie, she is such a sweetheart, I am always loving the things she says. So glad you got to have sweet and precious moment with her to end the day. I could have used one of those. I was so emotional all day- Easter fell on my Mom's b-day and between thinking about her and feeling so crappy and just wishing I had her here for this, I kept crying off and on all day long! Great, here I go again!
Still post some Easter pics so we can see them in their cute dresses. I didn't even get a pic of Madi in her new dress, that's how good she was being.

That is so sweet. I am 7 weeks pregnant, so I am not quite feeling myself (needless to say), and I am having a hard time taking care of things around the house and taking care of my five-year-old. My sweet 12 year-old daughter has been doing such a great job helping me out. She put the little boys to bed last night and read to them. Then, I woke up to a note from her that says "Thanks for the Easter stuff you got us I love it and so dose everyone else. I know that you didn't feel very good but you still let us play and have fun and thanks for being such a good mom".
Wow--Heavenly Father really blessed me with such an amazing girl. Little girls are so sweet. Just wait--it gets even better.
Hope this week is better for you. :)

What a sweet convo with Ellie...she is such a great little girl. These kiddos really can keep us in check with what is important.
I would LOVE to get together when we ever get to St. George at the same time! I actually thought about you when I was there the other day....I wondered if you were in town because I saw a car just like yours! Guess not.
Hope your week is going better than your weekend was!

Mergers are an expensive business. Not only is Comcast spending $45 billion just to buy Time Warner Cable, but also there are the costs of getting the deal approved.

Kaching, kaching, that's the sound of Mastercard's lobbyist's coffers engorging. The credit card company spent nearly a million dollars in the 4th quarter to lobby Congress critters. By comparison, they spent only $680,000 in the 3rd quarter, and $510,000 in Q4 2008. Among the issues of keen interest to the big orange and yellow interlocking circle: overdraft fees, banking reform, interchange fees, issuer practices, and the Consumer Financial Protection Agency. The good thing about being Mastercard is that you can just charge all your lobbying expenditures.

Rebekah Burroway
Assistant Professor
Ph.D. Duke, 2011
Areas of Interest
Poverty & Inequality, Global Health, Gender, Development & Developing Countries, Political Sociology, Social Demography
Professor Burroway's research utilizes a comparative, cross-national perspective to examine the impact of social structural forces on health and poverty, with an emphasis on women and children. Health is a productive site for studying inequality as it is one of the most fundamental indicators of life chances and is integrally related to many other aspects of disadvantage. Thus, her research is motivated by several key questions: What explains global patterns and vast inequalities in health and well-being? How do macro structures shape individual life chances, particularly in developing countries? How do contexts of gender inequality manifest as unequal power and resources, and consequently, as unequal life chances for women and their children? Burroway's research and teaching interests broadly encompass the areas of poverty and inequality, global health, gender, development and developing countries, political sociology, and social demography. Drawing on theories of comparative institutions, feminism, democracy, and development, she uses quantitative cross-national and multi-level research designs to illustrate the ways in which political, institutional, economic, and policy contexts influence the lives of women and children. While recognizing the role of individual characteristics, her work underscores the importance of social structures for shaping the distribution of poverty and well-being across societies.

Fees Other Departments Hours
All puppies/dogs over 16 weeks of age will be spayed or neutered prior to adoption. The adoption fee is $150 (includes spaying/neutering, age appropriate vaccinations, deworming and microchip). If the puppy is too young for altering at the time of adoption, the adoption fee is $200. Adopter must sign contract agreeing to spay/neuter by specified date in the adoption contract. $100 is returned to adopter upon proof of spaying/neutering. The adoption fee includes age appropriate vaccinations, deworming, and microchip (to be implanted by shelter staff when puppies are over 4 months).
Senior dogs or special needs dogs are adopted out at a reduced fee or the fee is waived if an excellent home is found.
We try to match each dog with its new home so that chances for a successful, lifetime placement are much higher. Each interested party is asked to fill out an application. Once the application is completed, we interview the potential adopter.
All dogs over 16 weeks old are spayed or neutered prior to adoption. Strict follow-ups are made to insure puppies are spayed/neutered when they reach 16 weeks of age.
Visitation is by appointment only; morning, evening and weekend appointments are available.

My Thoughts on Applying to Jobs in a Library
I am by no means an expert on getting a job. But, in my current position as a librarian, I am in charge of hiring two positions in my department. These are both entry-level, part time positions. I know a lot of y'all on tumblr are looking for jobs like these, so here are a few tips I think could help you make the right first impression. I get inundated with emails as soon as we post a job, and anyone whose application has all (or even some!) of these components in it goes to the top of the list.
1. Put your cover letter in the body of the email. With all the attachments, it's very hard to keep track of what's what.
2. Make your cover letter about why you love libraries/want this job. I can look at your resume for your skills and work history. For a part-time job that does not require an MLS, I really only need a couple of paragraphs that show me your personality and why you want the job. that's it!
3. Get the names right. This drives me nuts! My name is listed as the contact on the job posting. I can't tell you how many people address letters "to whom it may concern" or even to the wrong person entirely. And don't even get me started on people who refer to the wrong library. I do not expect an entirely new cover letter for a totally basic job— but I do expect you to have taken five minutes to make sure the information is correct. That goes a long way!
4. Your only attachment should be your resume. Don't bog us down with references and attached cover letters. Again, cover letters should go in the body of the email, and we'll ask for references if we need them.
5. Your last name should be in your resume's file name. I cannot stress this enough. If I am trying to find your resume, I will basically give up if I have to open 20 files named "resume" to find yours. My resumes have names like, "WarshauerResume2012" or "WarshauerResumeMarketing." Do not deviate. Just follow this pattern: Last name-Resume-(any identifying info you might need to tell your resumes apart, if you have multiple.)
These are not just pet-peeves, they are dealbreakers. Good presentation allows hiring managers to pay attention to your qualifications. I can only speak to hiring the kinds of positions that I supervise, but I feel like this is probably good advice even if you were applying for an MLS position or, frankly, any professional job.

Learning Self-Love
So many people struggle with self-love and that is definitely a problem! You must learn to love yourself before anyone else! You do not need to find someone to love you, wait until you lose the weight, or anything before you can love yourself – you must love yourself NOW! At the end of the day all you have is yourself and that must be enough! You must be happy with yourself and love yourself unconditionally! Losing weight will not solve the problem – you will still be the same you with the same problems! Instead of focusing on that learn to love yourself for everything you are!
I hope this helps you all and I am always here to talk if you are having a bad day or just need some help!

Alumni and Student Engagement Center
Rising on Main Street just across from the main gates, the new Alumni and Student Engagement Center will be a signature building for Clark University: a cornerstone for our LEEP efforts, a place to welcome visiting alumni, friends and family, and the perpetuation and strengthening of our commitment to the Main South community. Its bold design and flexible use expresses Clark's aspirations as a change-maker, and reaffirms our reputation as a leading institution of higher education.
The project will offer:
- A 35,000-square-foot, four-story building that will house the LEEP (Liberal Education and Effective Practice) Center. The building will give Clark's pioneering model for liberal undergraduate education a centralized presence on campus, where students will collaborate with faculty, alumni and external partners to experience a rich mix of academic, world and workplace experiences.
- Spaces for alumni to reconnect with one another and re-engage with their alma mater in ways that will incorporate their passions, deploy their expertise, and drive change.
- A hub for panel discussions, lectures and other campus events that foster vigorous intellectual give-and-take and promote collective action.
- Green space that complements the city's improvements to University Park and the upcoming Main South streetscape work that will enhance lighting and widen and beautify sidewalks.
- A prominent Main Street presence that serves as a gateway to a re-energized downtown.
Clark University has already received generous support from local foundations, alumni and friends who recognize the transformative potential of the project. We welcome your involvement to help raise the necessary resources for the Alumni and Student Engagement Center. To learn more about giving opportunities, please contact Ed Ottensmeyer, Interim Vice President for University Advancement, at 508-793-7569, or at email@example.com.
Read more about the project in the fall 2014 issue of CLARK Magazine.

The agony is over.
The Pistons returned to Indianapolis tonight, 120 days after they opened this miserable season with a loss to the Pacers. Detroit took another loss tonight, but unlike Dec. 26, it wasn't a licking.
It wasn't pleasant. It wasn't inspiring. And it sure wasn't meaningful. But the Pistons hung with the Pacers until the game's final minute, when Indiana pulled away for a 103-97 victory.
Every year, a team surpasses all expectations. Its players improved during the offseason more than expected, or its coach ingrains a new plan quicker than expected, or something else just goes right that nobody saw coming.
One hundred and twenty days ago, I thought that might be the Pistons. Of course, I didn't actually think it would be the Pistons. They had just essentially returned a team that went 30-52. But I thought it might be.
The Pacers crushed that hope in just a couple hours, and they, in fact, became the team that surpasses all expectations. One hundred and twenty days later, the Pacers are resting their top players as they've already clinched homecourt advantage in the first-round of the playoffs.
The Pistons, on the other hand, fell to 24-41 while using all their top players save Ben Wallace. The way they lost to Indiana in the opener, it was no surprise they started 4-20. Since, they've made moderate gains to a foundation that was invisible Dec. 26, and many of those improvements were on display tonight:
- Greg Monroe (18 points and 12 rebounds tonight) became one of the league's most improved players.
- Brandon Knight (16 points, four assists and four rebounds) showed flashes of being a dynamic lead guard.
- Jason Maxiell (10 points, seven rebounds, two steals and two blocks) rekindled his energy.
- Vernon Macklin (six points and six rebounds in 14 minutes) developed into a reasonable NBA big man.
- Austin Daye (11 points) made a few shots.
Pessimistically, those aren't the biggest marks of progress – especially when the production of Rodney Stuckey (zero points, two assists in 20 minutes) has regressed lately. But in the context of 120 days ago, they're remarkable.
The Pistons' big losses and small steps of 2011-12 will soon begin to fade from memory, and tonight was the last hurdle for the fans who've hung on for this entire ride. As Detroit transitions from its penultimate game into its season finale against the 76ers on Thursday, attention will turn to Ben Wallace and his remarkable career. With one game left, this season's basketball is over. All that's left is to celebrate Wallace.
Soon after that, we'll look back on the basketball of this season and try to convince ourselves the 2012-13 Pistons could be the team that surpasses all expectations.
Most Valuable Player
Roy Hibbert, Danny Granger and George Hill sat out for the Pacers. Paul George most certainly did not. The active wing had 27 points, 10 rebounds, four assists and three steals.
Defining moment
Both teams offensively rebounded very well, but the Pacers got the biggest when Tyler Hansbrough corralled a miss, got fouled and made both free throws – giving Indiana a three-point lead with 26 seconds left.
Greg Monroe (18 points and 12 rebounds) helped keep the Pistons in the game, but his five turnovers and making just 1-of-4 late free throws ultimately sunk Detroit.

VANCOUVER, Washington — The Federal Highway Administration is giving the states of Washington and Oregon five more years to repay tens of millions of dollars they were given for the now-defunct Columbia River Crossing — a new Interstate 5 bridge between Portland and Vancouver.
The states requested the extension last month.
The Columbian reports (http://bit.ly/ZrNEFl) the states could be on the hook for as much as $188 million. More than $100 million of that went to Oregon.
The $2.9 billion project shut down in May after five years of work as support shrank in both legislatures.
Transportation officials say a new I-5 bridge eventually will be needed over the Columbia River.

Opinions by GamesBeat community writers do not necessarily reflect those of the staff.Super Street Fighter 4 Street Fighter 4 became a great success, and Capcom released a console-exclusive sequel the next year with 10 new characters and balance changes to the whole cast. Meanwhile, the rise of Internet streaming groups like Team Spooky meant that you could watch high-level matches complete with commentary several times a week. M. Bison The most obvious additions to Super Street Fighter 4 are the new Ultra Combos for everyone. While some like Ryu had finishers that were inferior to the original, others like M. Bison got weapons that helped out in specific matchups. For example, the Shadaloo dictator can use his new Psycho Punisher to squash fireball throwers. E. Honda The next major change was an across-the-board damage nerf. Most Ultras took less life, as did certain moves like Sagat's Tiger Uppercut and Rufus's EX Messiah Kick. While E. Honda got some improvements, the heavyweight became one of SSF4's best largely because his worst matchups became easier. Guile Less-fortunate competitors also got improvements. Guile was one of "vanilla" SF4's worst, and not only did Capcom address his weaknesses, but it also shortened the time needed to charge his Sonic Boom. Guile became a defensive menace who could frustrate and outlast most of the roster. Gen Not everyone was happy. Gen made some noise with his "MK to Hands" combos and an invincible EX Oga wall jump that helped him on defense, but Capcom decided to take away those tactics without giving him much in return. Balance is a tricky thing: Taking away a strong tool from an underused fighter may keep it from becoming an issue later, but it isn't going to please character loyalists. Gen would have his day later on, however, after Singapore's Xian used the master of the Mantis and Crane stances to conquer the Evolution 2013 tournament. Above: The King of Fighter's Kim Kapwhan, the greatest Tae Kwon Do artist in fighting games, is noble to the point that he tries to reform criminals, so of course Street Fighter's Juri is a cruel backstabber. Juri A new game also means new characters, including the oil wrestler Hakan and the evil taekwondo expert Juri. These warriors represented martial arts and play styles that never appeared in the series before. For example, Juri could hold onto her fireballs and release them later, letting her ward off incoming foes, extend attack strings, or terrorize them in the corner. Dee Jay The rest of the additions came from previous titles. First up were the last of the Super Street Fighter II "New Challengers": Dee Jay and T. Hawk. The Jamaican kickboxer is a well-rounded, charge-based competitor who is decent even though over the years he's had trouble finding the right rhythm that would put him in the spotlight. Dudley Before launch, enthusiasts pegged Street Fighter III boxer Dudley and Final Fight criminal Cody to be the new top tier because they had the versatile Ultras that SF4's best had as well as answers to fireballs. They ended up being easy fights, however, for the likes of Chun-Li and M. Bison, who became better now that Ultra-Combo comebacks weren't as dominant. Then again, everyone in SSF4 had a few bad matchups. Guy "Average" could be used to describe a lot of SSF4's additions, many of whom were meant to inject more dynamic play into the game. Guy runs a fast-paced offense that works great when you have momentum, but getting it is a problem. Even then, however, SSF4 was very well-balanced, and you could play as most of the cast and win if you practiced enough. Adon The most memorable tournament match in SSF4's lifetime involved someone with little hype surrounding him: Adon. During Evolution 2010, Taiwanese player Gamerbee eliminated Justin Wong, who many considered the United States' best player. Gamerbee used Adon's pressuring Jaguar Kicks and unusual quirks to edge out Wong's Rufus. Next Page: Street Fighter returns to arcades with new friends that players will get to know very, very well.
