WC Honors 'Best and Brightest' at Student Recognition Ceremony
Bekah Muchmore and Megan McDonough Selected as Lucas Award Co-Recipients
April 29, 2014
An excited Megan McDonough and Rebekah Muchmore cross the stage to be recognized as co-recipients of the Robert E. Lucas Leadership Award at the April 27 Student Recognition Ceremony. President Jim Reynolds described them as students that "love this College and they've made the very best of their four years here."
Wilmington College honored juniors and seniors for academic achievement and leadership activities April 28 at its 33rd annual Student Recognition Ceremony.
President Jim Reynolds said these students' success "inspires and motivates" his work for the College. "We're proud of what you've accomplished and rejoice in your success," he said.
Erika Goodwin, vice president for academic affairs, said the students honored are among the College's "best and brightest."
"You are students that are truly living the mission of the College," she said. "Your time here has been special to us."
The College selected co-recipients for the Robert E. Lucas Leadership Award — what Reynolds called "the highest honor for student leadership" — to seniors Rebekah Muchmore and Megan McDonough.
"They love this College and they've made the very best of their four years here," he added.
Muchmore, who will represent main campus graduates when speaking at WC's Commencement May 10, is majoring in communication arts with a minor in music. Music faculty members named her the top student in that academic area.

McDonough also received the Activities Planning Board's Distinguished Service Award and the Center for Service and Civic Engagement selected her for its Excellence in Community Service Award, which has a minimum criteria of volunteering more than 300 hours.
McDonough also received the Charles J. Ping Award, which is a statewide honor that recognizes outstanding leadership and contributions to community service or service learning. In addition, she earned Honors Program recognition and was introduced as a member of Green Key Honor Society and Who's Who.

Comments about Grips Athletics Lil Secret Kids Gi:
I bought a Gi each for my son and daughter. They are both roosterweights with long limbs. The Gi fit both of them perfectly. And the pant cord system helps keep their pants up while training compared to the traditional flat drawstring that most gi pants have. My sons arms fit just right out of the bag and other gi's such as the Fuji he has arms that are too long for the sleeves. I would definately recommend this item.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Associated Press
BEIRUT (AP) -- TV singing contests around the world tend to serve up light, glitzy entertainment with a dash of emotional drama. But in the Middle East's version of "American Idol," it's the region's troubles that often take center stage.
Two contestants are from civil war-ravaged Syria, including a singer-composer whose bus was ambushed by gunmen en route to her audition and a music student who brought judges to tears with a song lamenting the devastation of his hometown of Aleppo. A performer from the Gaza Strip has become an audience favorite for singing about the plights of Palestinians under Israeli rule.
"The show has become a platform for Arab Spring youth to express themselves artistically and show the region that there's hope for the future," said Mazen Hayek, the spokesman for the Dubai-based, Saudi-owned MBC Group that broadcasts "Arab Idol" from a studio in the Lebanese capital, Beirut.
The show's producers say political expression is allowed. But in a region where tribal, religious and political affiliations often define identity, performers walk a fine line -- especially in a contest where winning is based on popularity.
"It's live and people around the region, and Arabs around the world, follow it in real time, posting praise or criticism on Twitter and Facebook, before they even vote for their favorites," Hayek said.
Now in its second season, the show has jumped in the ratings in part because of an eclectic mix of contestants, including several from nations wracked by conflict, such as Syria, as well as those still reeling from the fallout of the Arab Spring.
The current season began in March with 27 contestants from across the Arab world, including Tunisia, Egypt, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Syria and the Palestinian territories. The group has been whittled down to 10, and two will compete in the June 21 final.
Several contestants bring political baggage to the Beirut stage from which young singers in evening gowns and smart suits dazzle a TV audience of millions with a repertoire running from Arab classics to modern pop songs.
But the Syria crisis, now in its third year, has loomed largest. More than 70,000 Syrians have been killed and millions displaced since an uprising against President Bashar Assad's regime erupted in March 2011. Now a civil war, the conflict has taken an enormous toll on the country.
Farrah Youssef, 23, a singer and composer from the Syrian port city of Tartous, was nearly killed on her way to Beirut in October. Syrian gunmen fired on the bus she was traveling in and robbed the passengers.
She said several of her friends have been killed in bombings in Damascus, the capital, where she's been studying English. A younger brother was gravely wounded in a shooting attack and four of her girlfriends were kidnapped, raped and killed, their bodies dumped on the side of a deserted road outside the capital, she said.
"I've been so sad that I can't grieve any longer," Youssef said in a recent interview. "I ask myself all the time, 'what on earth happened?' Everything was so calm and then suddenly my country was on fire."
While Damascus has been largely spared the destruction that has hit other cities, Aleppo has not been so fortunate.
Ten months of street fighting have devastated Aleppo, Syria's largest urban and commercial center, leveling entire neighborhoods and leaving landmark mosques, the ancient souk and other historic treasures in ruins. Once one of Syria's most beautiful cities, Aleppo is now scarred, carved up into rebel- and government-held areas.
Abdelkarim Hamdan, who grew up poor in a traditional Muslim family in Aleppo's walled Old City before becoming a contestant on the show, refuses to choose sides in the conflict.
"I sing for Syrians regardless of their opinions and their political affiliations," Hamdan said in an interview in Beirut.
The 25-year-old did not join anti-government protests when the uprising broke out. He has expressed his opposition to violence in his own lyrics about his hometown, set to a popular folk tune. His performance on a recent episode brought the four-judge panel to tears and prompted patriotic cheers in the audience.
"Aleppo, you are a spring of pain in my country," he sang. "So much blood has been shed in my country. I cry and my heart is burning for my country and my sons who have become strangers in it."
His ode to Aleppo instantly went viral on the Internet, but with praise came criticism from Muslim hardliners, who consider the talent show un-Islamic.

Poetry Out Loud tests students' mettle
Tuesday, February 19, 2013
According to the Book of Lists, fear of snakes, height and even death do not rate as #1 for Americans. That distinction belongs to ... the fear of public speaking.
Prior to and subsequent to each reading cheers could be heard, but during the recitations, a natural silence settled over the large group of teens. "I can't imagine how anyone could do that," said freshman Alex Chase, "if it was me up there, I probably wouldn't remember a thing."
Some presentations were short, only a few lines, while others spanned a bit of time, such as freshman Nolan Greig's interpretation of Tennyson's "The Charge of the Light Brigade." Other student's presentations included works by Sara Teasdale and Ralph Waldo Emerson.
As the 21 recited and gesticulated, a panel of five judges from the school department and the public graded each of them in a number of categories. "Be tough on them," advised Goodnow to the judges.
After the competitors were winnowed to less than half, the tension rose in the hall as each had one more opportunity to impress the judges. Some stumbled before the hushed audience, yet received a massive applause for the courage they showed.
Goodnow took the stage and announced third place for Shaelyn Frost, second place Mathew Palczynski, and the winner, to represent Dover High School in the regional event was Courtney Couillard.
Couillard, a senior, is bound for Barnard College next year with a plan to major in communications with an eye toward political commentary.
"I'd love to do something like Jon Stewart does," said Couillard whose presentations were veritably flawless. "I have done a little bit in front of people before," said the smiling 4.3 GPA student, "but when the auditorium began filling up it started to be knee knocking time." She gave credit to her mother saying "I couldn't have done it without her."
Several fellow students who were in the audience and have had much experience in front of audiences had similar reactions to the day.

Throughout the month of November, the Round Rock Public Library will exhibit photographs and artwork in the exhibition Wurzbach Manor: Narratives of Resettlement, organized by Borderland Collective, a social art project based at Texas State University.
Reflecting Texas' diversity and growing multiculturalism, Wurzbach Manor tells the story of three families living in the Wurzbach Manor apartments in North San Antonio, Texas. This exhibition is the result of the participatory art collaboration between the Niyonkuru, Day, and Paw Moo families (displaced from their native homes of Tanzania, New Orleans, and Burma) and artist Joey Fauerso, writer Jenny Browne, educator Ryan Sprott, and photographer Jason Reed.
About Borderland CollectiveBorderland Collective is a social art project that facilitates the participatory exploration and documentation of geographic and sociocultural borders. Fueled by collaborations between artists, teachers, youth, and families the project uses art as a means to trouble notions of who holds knowledge and what stories are told, providing an inclusive representation of the contemporary American experience.
The collective was conceived of (with great inspiration from the work of Wendy Ewald) on a road trip along the Texas/Mexico border in 2007 by Ryan Sprott and Jason Reed of West Texas, and Ulrich Eigner of Austria. It is currently housed at Texas State University in San Marcos, TX and directed by Jason Reed, Assistant Professor of Photography. Borderland Collective exhibitions have taken place in Illinois, New York. Texas, and in Mexico.

The Psiphon SV Pant is specifically created to provide durable weather protection and warmth while allowing a climber to move efficiently and effectively in severe alpine conditions.
Air permeable, four way stretch Fortius™ 3.0 softshell uses a nylon/elastane fabric laminated to mid-loft, heavyweight stretch fleece to deliver elevated thermal performance, weather protection, abrasion resistance and stretch. Burly™ Double Weave softshell reinforces the lower leg. Advanced articulated patterning and strategically placed gussets provide climbers with the ability to move effectively without compromising coverage.
Arc'teryx designs focus on achieving the highest degree of function for a specific purpose. The Psiphon SV Pant is optimized for climbing. The trim cut is carefully patterned to reduce fabric and seams that could snag crampons, particularly in the lower leg. Webbing loops are integrated to accommodate gaiter straps (not included) that will help keep snow out of your boots in deep snow conditions. The low profile waistbelt adjuster is glove and harness friendly, and removable suspenders add a level of security. Two thigh pockets: one zippered pocket securely holds small essentials, and Velcro flapped dump pocket provides quick access, even with gloves on.
The Psiphon SV pant and other Arc'teryx Ascent products stand alone, but really shine when coming together as technically advanced systems that help maximize personal performance in harsh alpine environments. Clothing layers, harness, helmet, backpacks, and crampons are all considered part of the system. Knowing how a climber moves informs the designs, which are built to work in unison according to the intended style of use. Arc'teryx leverages premium craftsmanship, construction innovations and ergonomic patterns to create products that work together to deliver the highest degree of function and hardwearing protection from the least possible weight.

Recipient of Dr. Toy's "Best Children's Products" award, this electronic version of "hotter/colder" challenges children to find the monkey using a wand that beeps and lights up as seekers close in. Four LEDs on the wand begin to illuminate when it is within 20' of the monkey. As seekers get "hotter," more LEDs light up, and when the wand is within 5' of the monkey, it beeps to confirm the monkey is close by. The monkey is small enough to be hidden under a child's pillow and its curved tail allows you to hang it from tree branches or lampshades. Includes one 9-volt battery for the monkey and two AA batteries for the wand (includes two wands). Ages 4 and up. Imported. Wand: 12 1/2" L x 1" Diam. Monkey: 8" H x 4" W. (2 lbs.)

The Legend of Gary
No, we got on the topic adding skills Castles & Crusades, wherein I mentioned that one of the last things Gary wrote was an optional skill system for C&C's Castle Zagyg. There was a pause on the line, and my friend said "Really?" with more than a hint of deep respect in his voice.
Among most of my gaming friends, we still have a reverence for Gary Gygax and what he did. Some of us started playing after AD&D 1e, some of us were hardcore readers of the early Dragon Magazine, and others go indie all the way. But one of the common things that binds us is that the opinion or words of Gary Gygax are not lightly discounted. Certainly we don't agree with everything he's written, but he still commands our respect to the highest degree. We aren't all OSRers, or 4ers, or exclusive D&Ders, but we are Gamers, and those that weren't around for some of Gary's highlights are now picking it up secondhand. A new generation of gamers progresses, and soon enough, they'll know about him, too, so long as gaming endures.
That's the way legends grow. And in a world where we're expected to be hyper-critical and cynical (and yes, I definitely put myself in there), it's nice to still have legends. We know Gary wasn't perfect, but none of the best legends are, are they?

I think the idea of playing in a certain way because Gary did so, or because people played so in a certain decade is absurd. I play the way I do because it works for me. I borrow ideas from early day gaming and gaming from the later eras, but the bottom line is that it has to work for me and my group. :)

I am not a real big follower of the "cult of Gary" (as I JOKINGLY call it)- I find some importance in knowing he was first and/or trailblazer type, but his work doesn't have relevance to me or my style. That's me, though.

- Zachary Houghton said...
Legend doesn't necessarily mean emulating Gary or gaming by the light of his Dragon articles. It means a healthy respect for what was, I think.
And, to be fair, in 1978, 1998, or 2010, Gary wasn't relevant to how some gamers played. He is to others, sometimes in surprising ways, I think.

I'm pretty sure diseased yaks were used at one point by Gygax to discipline unruly players.

Gygax never meant much of anything to me. I had been playing games for at least 10 years before I had even heard of him (I was not raised on DnD) and that was on an episode of Futurama.
Since then, every where I turn it's "Gygax-mania!!!"
I've read the old DnD books he wrote and found them to be dry, boring, and near-impossible for me to read through. He had cool ideas, but they aren't worth the migraine they gave me trying to find them.
and sure, he can arguably be said to be the guy that started it all, but once again, that doesn't really mean much to me. The first doesn't mean the best.
- November 5, 2010 at 2:00 PM
- Zachary Houghton said...
I can understand that. Different experiences, and all that. I'm sure there are enclaves of gamers who haven't heard of Gygax, or if they haven't, don't much care for him. I've had the opposite experience, largely, but it all comes down to the anecdotal stuff, as usual.

Ann Stevenson - Never shake a baby
Experts have learned that crying is the No. 1 trigger for shaking a baby
Nov 2, 2012 | 4 Comments
Click, click. How does the sound of knitting needles busily clicking together help prevent infant abuse?
Through a national campaign called Click for Babies, more than 50,000 handmade purple-colored baby caps from volunteer knitters and crocheters across the country are helping to raise awareness about normal crying and the dangers of shaking an infant.
During November, babies born at hundreds of participating hospitals will receive a free purple baby cap, a DVD and booklet called the Period of PURPLE Crying. The PURPLE program was created by the National Center on Shaken Baby Syndrom to help parents understand their baby's crying.
In McMinnville, parents of every baby born at Willamette Valley Medical Center receive this educational, 10-minute DVD and pamphlet upon discharge. They are encouraged to share the DVD with their baby's caretakers as well.
In November, each baby also will receive a purple cap. In collaboration, the McMinnville Noon Kiwanis Club pays for the DVDs, and the hospital's birthing center distributes them.
Traci Millsap, nurse manager for the Women's Center at the medical center is enthusiastic. "I think it's a wonderful way to present a difficult subject," she said. "Some parents don't understand that crying is normal. They don't want anyone to know they are frustrated and may not ask for or seek help. This is an educational tool to help them and, I hope, prevent shaken baby syndrome in the future. What is really great is that this DVD is good for mom, dad, grandparent, siblings, babysitters and anyone else who may be left alone with an infant."
PURPLE, an easy-to-remember acronym, reminds parents of the characteristics of normal infant crying:
P - Peak of crying. Babies may cry more each week, peaking at two months, and then less at three to five months.
U - Unexpected. Crying can come and go, with no explanation.
R - Resists soothing. The baby might not stop crying, no matter what you try.
P - Pain-like face. It may look like the baby is in pain, even when he or she is not.
L - Long lasting. The baby might cry five hours a day or more.
E - Evening. The baby might cry more in the late afternoon or evening.
Experts have learned that crying is the No. 1 trigger for shaking a baby. An estimated 1,200 to 1,400 children are injured by shaking every year in the United States, and about 25 percent die from their injuries. Actual numbers may be much higher, as many cases likely go undetected or misdiagnosed.
Not only is shaken baby syndrome/abusive head trauma a crime, it is also a serious public health issue. Besides death, shaking an infant can result in permanent disability, blindness, mental retardation or developmental delays, learning disabilities, cerebral palsy, motor dysfunction and seizures.
Survivors may require constant medical or personal attention, which places tremendous emotional and financial strain on families. Medical costs associated with initial and long-term care for these children can range from $300,000 to more than $1 million.
"Many parents have no idea what to expect when they bring their new baby home from the hospital," says Ryan Steinbeigle, director of development for the NCSBS. "The goal of the Period of PURPLE Crying program is to give parents reasonable expectations and let them know that all healthy infants cry more in the first few weeks and months of life. The crying will come to end, and it is OK to put the infant down in a safe place and walk away when feeling frustrated."
The good news is that the syndrome is preventable, and we all have a role in that prevention. We can help educate others about the dangers of shaking a baby, we can create awareness of normal infant crying, and we can help support a new parent in the often-frustrating daily care of their newborn by offering to lend a hand. As the national center states on its website, "Believe all babies can be safe from harm. We do."

That said, it is unfortunate and in poor taste that you chose to spread your agenda in an article that discusses prevention of abuse and attempt to shift focus from this prevention effort. You agree that shaking a baby can cause serious damage, and this article only goes to reinforce this shared belief and how these injuries can be prevented. I agree with your statement that most parents are loving and would never intentionally hurt their infants. SBS is usually an unintentional injury that is a response to caregivers being unable to stop a baby from crying. Prevention efforts to educate about the normality of early infant crying have been proven to help. Multiple studies have shown that AHT cases doubled during the recent recession.
TV, ads, and the media teach children about sex from the time second they are born, yet many parents still do not talk to their children about protection, prevention, or parenting. I need a license to catch a fish, I have to pass my classes with a decent grade to receive a piece of paper that will amount to little in today's job market, yet I need to do nothing special to be a parent.
When will we wake up and realize parenting is not a right, it is a privilege, and there needs to be more done to protect our children?
Purple hats are great, but what about screening for parents, drug tests, mandatory classes, support groups for those who may have limited support, job skills classes for prospective parents who need it, etc?

Review: 2008 MINI Cooper Clubman
by Alex Nunez (RSS feed) on May 23rd, 2008 at 12:03PM
"You want a large for $.25 more?" That's what the popcorn drone behind the concession counter asks when you order a medium Coke at the movies. You may not need it, but hell, it's offered, so you pull the trigger. The same thing is happening in auto showrooms. Why settle for just an Escalade when you can have the ESV? This year, even BMW-owned MINI is getting in on the act. The result is the MINI Cooper Clubman, which your local MINI salesperson will happily offer for just $2,000 more than the regular Cooper.So, what does that extra two grand (before options) really get you? After all, the... Read More

AP Technology Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- Longtime users of Hotmail, MSN and other Microsoft email services will start noticing a big change: When they sign in to check messages, they'll be sent to a new service called Outlook.com.
You might be thinking, isn't Outlook the software Microsoft Corp. makes for people to use email at work? Indeed it is, but Microsoft is now adopting that brand for personal, Web-based email services as well. It's part of a broad makeover that includes the company's overhaul of the Windows operating system and the Office software suite.
There's little relationship between the two Outlooks apart from the name. That's good. The Outlook Web App I use for checking work email at home feels like an adaptation of software meant to be installed on work computers, rather than something designed from the start to play to the Web's strengths. The consumer Outlook.com, on the other hand, feels the way Web email should. It bears more similarities with consumer-based email services, such as Google's Gmail and Yahoo Mail, than with the corporate Outlook.
People have been able to sign up for Outlook.com email addresses and use the new interface as a "preview" for several months now. Microsoft made Outlook.com official on Tuesday and plans to spend millions of dollars to advertise it. Microsoft is even starting to force people using older Microsoft email services to switch to Outlook.com. If you've already tried Outlook.com on a browser, you might find your other accounts automatically upgraded the next time you sign in. Others will be moved over starting this summer.
One important note: People will be able to keep their existing addresses while using Outlook.com. There's no need to print new business cards replacing Hotmail with a new Outlook.com address. But if you want to change your address, you can get a new one for free. In fact, at least for now, it's still possible to get new Hotmail and Live addresses by signing up through Hotmail.com or Live.com, rather than Outlook.com.
You'll see a lot of improvements when you switch, though nothing feels revolutionary if you've already been using Gmail.
By revolutionary, I mean something along the lines of what Gmail did to email when Google introduced it in 2004.
First, Gmail scrapped the use of folders to organize older messages. Instead, it gives you labels, and you can apply as many as you want to a particular message. So an email among friends to make plans for "The Hobbit" movie might be filed away as "friends," ''movies" and even "The Hobbit." With folders, you had to choose one folder to put your message into or create multiple copies of the messages. It's a relic of the offline world, in which a paper document can only go in one folder without a copying machine.
Meanwhile, those 50 emails it might take to coordinate your movie date with friends could have easily cluttered your inbox. Gmail automatically groups those into "conversations," so you see all 50 messages as a single item in your inbox.
These changes took time to get used to, but that's what happens with revolutions.
Outlook.com adopts conversations, which makes it feel like it's catching up to Gmail, but it still uses folders instead of labels.
The improvements over Gmail are mostly around the edges:
-- Outlook integrates with leading social networks such as Facebook and Twitter.
Gmail mostly integrates with Google's own services. With Outlook, you can have the service automatically fill your address book with contact information not just from Google but also from Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and even China's Sina service. You can chat with a Facebook friend directly from the Outlook website.
And if you get an email from a Facebook friend, you might see that person's latest Facebook post to the right, as long as Facebook has that email address registered to the social-networking account. Keep in mind that your posts won't start showing up next to correspondences with people you're not friends with, unless you've set them on Facebook to be publicly visible.
-- Outlook offers many ways to customize and manage the mailbox.
One of the complaints I have about Web-based email is the lack of versatility. You're not given as many options as you are with stand-alone email software.
I was pleased to see a number of options with Outlook. For instance, I can have contents of emails automatically appear in a reading pane, rather than just as a list with subject lines. This is the part that feels most like Outlook software for work. You'd need to turn this feature on, though. It's something you might not want if you check messages a lot from public places and don't want messages to automatically appear. But Gmail doesn't even give you that option unless you install a tool that Google says "may change, break or disappear at any time."

WASHINGTON - The job market can be tough for veterans looking for work, but a unique partnership aims to help veterans catch a big break.
The Fullbridge Program and Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America are partnering together to offer a 15-day boot camp for veterans to help them retool their skills to the business world.
"We think that these are our future CEOs," says Paul Rieckhoff, founder of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America.
"It's not just about getting 10 folks a job, it might be about finding our next Mark Zuckerberg."
Rieckhoff says veterans have a lot to offer and need people to understand that their skills translate. That's where The Fullbridge Program, a post-college graduation employment readiness school, comes in.
Founder Candice Olson calls it an "MBA boot camp."
"They have a work ethic that is enviable," says Olson.
"(We want to) help them translate that experience into the language of business so that employers can really see how much they know."
The rigorous program is nine hours a day, but students learn from actual Harvard professors.
The program teaches skills, such as reading financial statements, financial analysis and how to make presentations.
So far, 10 veterans have gone through the program in Boston, but Olson hopes thousands will eventually attend.
Competition was stiff. Olson says the program received 30 applicants for every veteran they could take into the bootcamp.
They eventually chose five officers and five enlisted former service men and women. They ranged in age from their 20s to 30s, including one veteran from Alexandria, Va. He served in the U.S. Army and was deployed to Iraq. Even with a bachelor's degree in economics he still struggled to find a job once he left the Army.
Rieckhoff says now that the veteran has gone through the bootcamp, "he is now well-positioned to get picked up by any major company."
Rieckhoff says vets "aren't a charity they are an investment," and he urges other companies to stop and take notice.
Here is more information on the program and how to apply.

29 Champion Super Bowl Recipes
Playing host for the big game? We've got the perfect recipes to cover you from kick-off to the final whistle. Start with classic finger foods like pigs in a blanket or go wild with soy chicken wings yes, soy! At halftime, serve up heartier fare, like chilis, soups, and stews. Playful desserts like Snickers Blondies and Peanut Butter Cereal Treats ensure a sweet finale whether or not your favorite team wins.
Need more eats for the game? Don't forget the party dips and the wings!
Easy Pigs in a Blanket
For a grownup version of this kid favorite, use puff pastry to encase chunks of gourmet sausage. Using sausage (as opposed to franks) really lets you play with flavor; try an array of types, from chicken and apple to spinach and feta.
