Defeating Bowdoin Fri., Feb. 10, 74-61, behind the monstrous double-double of Mike Callaghan '13 (#44, right side photo), who had 25 points and 15 rebounds, both career highs, along with 20 points from Derick Beresford '13 (#3, left side photo), Wesleyan secured the #3 seed in the upcoming NESCAC tournament and will host a first-round game Sat., Feb. 18 against Bowdoin, the #6 seed. Ending the regular season with a 76-70 victory at Colby Sat., Feb. 11 to snag a pair of NESCAC wins in Maine, the Cardinals eclipsed the school mark for wins in a season with their current 19-5 record. The 1990-91 Cardinals finished 18-6 in establishing the previous school record for wins in a season. Callaghan, who averaged 20 points, 11.5 rebounds and 3.0 assists over the weekend, was honored by the NESCAC as Player of the Week while also finding a spot on the D3hoops.com Team of the Week.
Wesleyan became just the second team in NESCAC men's basketball history to go from failing to make the playoff field the previous year to a home berth in the tournament the next. The only other squad to do so was Middlebury, which finished ninth in the standings in 2005-06, then earned the #4 seed in 2006-07. Wesleyan has risen even one step above that, moving from #9 to #3 in a year's time. Watch a video detailing the accomplishments of the 2011-12 Cardinals ....
Wesleyan Men's Basketball - Record-setting Season from Wesleyan University on Vimeo.
At Bowdoin, Wesleyan got off to an outstanding start will a powerful 28-14 margin through 11:06 of the first half after holding a slim 11-9 edge the opening 5:48 of play. The 17-5 run was triggered by Beresford, who netted 11 of his 20 points in the 5:18 span with four baskets, three of them treys, as he finished the contest with six three-pointers on 10 attempts. Wesleyan settled for a 38-30 lead at halftime.
Bowdoin came out storming to begin the second half, scoring seven straight to narrow the gap to a single point, 38-37. Wesleyan regained its edge and pushed ahead by double-digits behind a three-pointer by Beresford with 9:57 to play, 55-43, thus completing a 17-6 run over a nine-minute span. Callaghan and Beresford combined for 11 of the 17 points. From that point, the lead never fell below eight points as the Cardinals avenged a 72-71 home setback to the Polar Bears on the final game of the season in 2010-11 which kept Wesleyan from making the playoffs.
Shasha Brown '13 chipped in with 10 points and six assists to aid the Cardinal cause while Glen Thomas '14 had 10 boards, helping Wesleyan to a substantial 48-30 margin on the glass.
At Colby, Wesleyan recovered from a sluggish start, trailing 13-2 after just 6:05 and still down 20-10 with nine minutes to go in the half. But a 20-11 Wesleyan run to close out the period narrowed the margin to 31-30 at halftime, and Wesleyan grabbed the lead for good, 34-33, on a pair of Thomas free throws 1:18 into the second half. The lead hit 10 on a Callaghan jumper with 13:50 to go and stayed in the 7-15 range until the closing three minutes when the Mules got as close as four, 74-70, with :12 left. Two Brown free throws ended the day's scoring.
Wesleyan had five players with double-digit scoring, led by Brown with 16. Callaghan added 15 and a eight rebounds, matching Thomas for team-high honors on the boards. Beresford and Julian Harris '14 added 12 points and Mendell chipped in with 11. The Cardinals connected on eight of 16 three-point attempts in the contest with Beresford, Brown and Mendell each hitting a pair.

I'm slowly trying to transition DD to drop her third nap. This is our current schedule and I'm trying to see what a 2 nap schedule would be like. I would like to push bedtime a little earlier.
7am - DD wakes, I BF
8:30am - DH drops off at daycare
9am - Solids
10am - Bottle, nap (usually 30 minutes)
12pm - Solids
1pm - Bottle
2:30pm - nap (again, 30 minutes)
4pm - I pick up
4:30pm - BF, nap on me (anywhere from 45min- 2 hours)
Anywhere from 5:30-6:30pm - DD wakes, I BF
7:30pm - Solids
8:45pm - Bedtime routine (dim lights, book, bath on bath days, diaper, pjs, BF, burp, snuggle) put to bed drowsy, but awake.
9-9:30pm - Asleep
She'll wake to eat between 1-3am, and one more between 4-5am.
My main question is how long is LO's awake time between last nap and bedtime.
5:15. Up for a bottle.
7ish: Up for the day and breakfast.
9:30ish: 1st nap. It could be 20 minutes or an hour. It seems to rotate between morning and afternoons as to which is longer. I stopped fighting it.
11:30ish: lunch
1:30- 2nd nap. Again 20 minutes or an hour. Depends on the morning nap. If she didn't nap in the morning nap can be as early as 12:30. If she slept long in the morning nap can be as late as 2:30ish.
4:00- She's always up by then and we have a snack.
5:30- dinner.
6:15. Start bedtime routine. In bed by 7 at the latest.
Up once in the night for a bottle sometimes. Sometimes not.
She gets a bottle with each nap and bedtime, but I'm working on replacing with a sippy.
So basically her awake time between last nap and bedtime can be anywhere between 2 and 4 hours..lol. I just follow LO lead. She's pretty easygoing and it works for us.
DS dropped his 3rd nap at 7m and he pretty well fell into a 2-3-4. His day looked like this (we were only doing solids twice a day at 7m):
7am - wake & BF
8am - solids
9am - nap (1 to 2h)
11am - bf
1-2pm - nap (1 to 2h; start time depended on what time he woke from first nap, so 3h after that. If he woke at 10:15, he went back down at 1:15. If he woke at 10:45, he went down at 1:45).
2-3pm - BF (nursed when he woke up)
5pm BF
5:30pm- dinner (solids)
6:30pm - bath, BF, in bed by 7
6-ish wake up, 7 oz. bottle
7:30, solids breakfast
8:30 or 9, nap
10-ish 4-6 oz. bottle
11:30, solids lunch
1 or 1:30 4-6 oz. bottle
1:30 or 2, nap
4:00 4-6 oz bottle
5:30 dinner solids
7:00 6 oz. bottle, bed
Even though we do solids 3 times a day, she doesn't eat enough to significantly reduce her formula intake. We are working on that!
My daughter is almost 15 months old, but her schedule has been the same since she was maybe 9 months old. There are 4.5-5.5 hours between waking up from her afternoon nap and going to bed for the night.
She wakes from her p.m. nap between 3 and 3:30. Bedtime is between 8 and 8:30.
Before that, she would have a short 20-30 minute cat nap from about 5-5:30, but like I said, that was dropped quite a while ago.
Our food schedule is kind of weird, being that we give bottles AFTER solids, not before like it seems everyone else does. Anyway.
6am - Wake Up and go play
8:30am - Solids Breakfast
10:00am - Bottle, Nap (anywhere from 30 mins to 2.5 hours)
1:00pm - Solids Lunch. On bath days, I do his baths after this, during the daytime.
2:00pm - Bottle, Nap (anywhere from 30 mins to 2.5 hours, depending on if the first nap was short or long, he seems to do the opposite of. Also, h'e starting to just take a 3.5 hour nap at 10am and no second nap, so that's happening sometimes)
4:00pm - Snack Time
6:00pm - Solids Dinner.
6:45/7:00pm - Bottle, bed.
The time in between is spent doing activities, cleaning, or going out if we have out-the-house things planned.
VeilSdeGTO:Looks like so many of you have bedtime around 7. That just seems so early to me since DH doesn't even get home from work until 7 most days.
We found that even with trying to keep the babies up, they definitely got fussier and were in their own way, demanding an earlier bedtime.
Our schedule looks like this:
6/6:30 wake up
7:15 bottle of 8 oz
7:45 solids
8-8:30- first nap for about an hour and a half
11:30 bottle of 8 oz
12 solids
1/1:30 nap for up to 2 hours
4:30 bottle of 8 oz
5:30 solids
7:15/7:30 bottle of 8 oz
bed as soon as we are done.
4:30-5am, wakes to nurse and then back down
6-6:30am--up for the day
9am--nap starts and sleeps for 1hr15min usually
10:30ish (or whenever she wakes from nap) nurse
1:30-2ish--nap for another 1hr15min usually
3pm (or whenever she wakes from nap) nurse
6:30pm--bedtime routine starts
She has just started being awake longer between sleeping. When she dropped her afternoon nap, she was on a 2-3-4 schedule and we did have to bump up her bedtime. She did used to sleep until 7-7:30am and went to bed around 8-8:30pm, but her wake time just kept getting earlier and earlier no matter what time we put her to bed. So once she dropped that 3rd nap, I had to put her to bed earlier.
VeilSdeGTO:Looks like so many of you have bedtime around 7. That just seems so early to me since DH doesn't even get home from work until 7 most days.
Yeah, we used to wait until DH got home from work at 7:30 to do bedtime and then we would eat dinner after she was down. But now I have to put her to bed before and since he works 10-11hr days, he usually only sees her a few minutes in the morning before he leaves
7:00-8:00 AM wake, bottle, dressed, fruit or yogurt
9:00 Nap (only if he wakes early -- he won't take this if he wakes at 8:00)
10:00 out for the day
12:00 home for lunch and bath
4:00 bottle and indoor playtime
5:30 dinner
7:30/8:00 bedtime.
He STTN most nights and I'd say that you should be down to 1 wake up at this point.
My son is 11.5 months. Dropped 3rd nap at 7 months or so.
Awake 6:30/7, nurse
Breakfast (solids) 8:30
Nurse at 10, nap til 11:30
Lunch (solids) at 12:30
Nurse at 3, nap til 4:30
Snack 5/5:30 (fruit, crackers, cheese, etc)
Dinner (solids) at 6:30ish
Bath at 7:30
7:45/8 - stories and nursing
8:00/8:30 - bed
Either STTN or wakes once at 4 to nurse. Phasing that out on his own thankfully.
My son dropped his third nap around 7 months. I followed his lead, he didn't seem to want to go down for it, always fought it and when he did fall asleep, woke up after 15 minutes to a half hour. So, as one of the ladies said before, we are in a perfect 2-3-4 now, or, 2-3-3.5
Times can vary by as much as a half hour, but we have him on a sleep routine based off of Tracy Hogg's the Baby Whisperer, so here is my son's routine.
7- Awake, breastfeed
8:30- Breakfast (solids)
9- Nap, 2 hours
11- Breastfeed
1:30- Snack, practice with finger foods
2- Nap, usually ranging 40 minutes to an hour and a half
3:30- Breastfeed
5:30- Dinner, solids
6:45-7:15- Start bedtime routine, bath if it's bath night. In bed asleep by 8 at the latest
Babies this age should easily be able to go 2-3 hours between sleeps. My son, in particular, needs to go 3.5-4 hours before bed so he sleeps the full 11 hours. If he doesn't, he's up at 5. Every baby is different. Hopefully you can gleam your own new routine from all our ideas Good luck!
Hope this helps!
8:00am Wakes up- bottle (8oz)
9:00 - Solids
10:30 - Morning nap (1 hour)
noon- lunch + Bottle (4oz)
2:30 Snack (Gerber snacks + juice)
3:00- 4:30 - nap
4:30 bottle (6oz)
6:00 dinner
7:30 -bottle (6oz)
8:00 - bedtime ----- Has been STTN for 12+ hours since 6m old.

Machipongo, VA United States
Restoration/Preservation / Merit
Stephen Muse, FAIA, liked this historic house from the get-go. "It had to do with the simplicity of the floor plan, compared to the way houses are built today, when things are so convoluted and you have to walk through galleries to get places," he says. "It's something all of us should think about more."
After clearing away the bad additions on the eastern end of the plantation house, Muse created a hyphen that connects to a one-story structure containing a new kitchen. Its attached breakfast room, which faces the water, is designed as an enclosed porch and echoes the twin Georgian entry porches, which Muse replicated on the waterfront side. A judge called it "a very sensitive restoration of this kind of housing. It could have gone off-track in a lot of ways, but it didn't."

Vets for Freedom, a conservative-leaning organization of combat veterans from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, has expanded the ad buy for its TV spot "Skipped" (subscription), putting it on the airwaves in Colorado and Ohio this week. The ad criticizes Barack Obama for holding no oversight hearings on Afghanistan and not spending more time in Iraq.
One of the targeted states -- Colorado -- is among the five that John McCain's campaign is reportedly pulling back from this week. The Politico reported today that the chances of a third-party, Swift-Boat-style attack on Obama are dimming. But there does seem to be a pattern developing of outside groups stepping into battleground states as McCain steps out.
Foreign Policy, Television Ad, Third-Party Ad
Wednesday, October 1, 2008 4:47 PM
Vets For Freedom, an organization of combat veterans from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, is targeting Barack Obama in a new TV ad for what the group says is his failure to lead on the two conflicts.
Opening with an image of a smiling Obama lounging in a chair behind his desk, "Skipped" (subscription) notes Obama's high absentee rate in the Senate – he missed 45 percent of votes -- but says that "he did manage to show up to vote against emergency funding for our troops." The announcer goes on to criticize the Illinois senator for not holding any hearings as the chairman of the Senate oversight committee on Afghanistan. And he points out that Obama has traveled to Iraq only twice, while during the course of the presidential race he visited Iowa 45 times.
Brian Bowers, an Iraq war veteran, appears on screen at the end urging viewers to call Obama and ask him to support Senate Resolution 636. The bill, sponsored by two of John McCain's closest surrogates, Sens. Joe Lieberman, I/D-Conn., and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., calls for the recognition of the success of the troop surge in Iraq.
The accusation against Obama regarding troop funding came up in the first presidential debate, where Obama defended his vote as a reflection on his position seeking a timetable for withdrawal. "Senator McCain opposed funding for troops in legislation that had a timetable, because he didn't believe in a timetable," Obama pointed out. "I opposed funding a mission that had no timetable, and was open-ended, giving a blank check to George Bush. We had a difference on the timetable. We didn't have a difference on whether or not we were going to be funding troops." Factcheck.org, meanwhile, reported in response to a McCain campaign ad released in July that while Obama did cast one "no" vote on legislation providing money for combat efforts, he voted at least 10 times in favor of increased funding.
As for the committee Obama chairs, it does not, in fact, have direct oversight of the war in Afghanistan. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee's Subcommittee on European Affairs does have jurisdiction over NATO affairs, and NATO has played a large role in the conflict. But hearings on Afghanistan have been held in front of the full Foreign Relations Committee, headed by Obama's running mate, Joe Biden. ABC News reported in July that Obama has attended one of the three full committee hearings on Afghanistan held within the last two years, while McCain has missed all three.
"This is a despicable distortion of Senator Obama's record," spokesman Nick Shapiro said. "Senator Obama has been a forceful advocate for our service members, passing legislation that ensured our wounded warriors receive the care and treatment they deserve, fighting to end disparities in veterans health care benefits, and proposing a plan to revitalize our military to meet the threats and challenges of the 21st century."

The ONE Campaign against global poverty hit the airwaves today with a TV spot (subscription) calling for John McCain and Barack Obama to address worldwide hunger and disease at the presidential debates.
The nonprofit humanitarian group, which was co-founded by U2 front man Bono, has spent a little over $700,000 to air the ad on national cable to correspond with Friday's debate. The only problem? McCain's announcement that he's "suspending" his presidential campaign this week because of the economic crisis has thrown the future of that debate into jeopardy.
But ONE insists its message has no expiration date, even if the original intention was to tie their message to an event that attracts tens of millions of viewers. "When the debate does go forward, if it occurs tomorrow or it occurs at the some other time, the issue will still be relevant," said ONE spokeswoman Kimberly Cadena.
Even if the Friday debate goes off as planned, cutting through the media buzz about the ongoing economic crisis may be difficult. In speeches at the Clinton Global Initiative conference this morning, both McCain and Obama focused their remarks on the Wall Street meltdown, and media reports after the fact largely ignored their comments on combating malaria and reducing global poverty.
But, echoing Obama's recent comments that presidents must be able to multitask, Cadena said voters can pay attention to more than one issue at a time. "Voters have been dealing with several different challenges both at home and abroad during this election season," she said. "And they've maintained a level of interest in these problems throughout."
This is not ONE's first foray into presidential politics: The group paid $1.8 million in December to air a similar ad in Iowa and New Hampshire during the primaries, and also ran a second spot featuring actor Matt Damon days before the Democratic convention last month.
Barack Obama, Foreign Policy, John McCain, Television Ad
Friday, September 19, 2008 4:53 PM
John McCain countered Barack Obama's tough Spanish-language TV ad this week with one of his own today.
Two days after Obama came out with "Dos Caras," McCain countered with "Obama-Chavez" (subscription), which juxtaposes footage of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez denouncing the U.S. with Obama's comments last year that he would meet with Chavez soon after becoming president.
The ad shows Chavez at a rally, reproaching the U.S. with some profanity bleeped out. In translation: "Go to h*ll, you filthy Yankees!" and "We, you filthy Yankees, know that we are resolute to be free, no matter what happens, and at any cost!" The announcer asks viewers: "Do you believe we should talk with Chavez?... In November, you decide." At a CNN/YouTube primary debate in July 2007, Obama said he would meet "without preconditions" and within the first year of his administration with the leaders of Iran, Syria, Cuba, North Korea and Venezuela -- a remark he has taken heat for ever since.
McCain is coming off an international gaffe of his own; he recently said he would not promise to meet with Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Zapatero, going so far as to lump him in with Chavez and other Latin American leaders known for their traditionally hostile relationships with the U.S.
"Obama-Chavez" is running in the battleground state of Florida. That also happens to be where Obama is touring today -- and where the Illinois senator took a salvo from Republican Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart over "Dos Caras," which links McCain to conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh and President Bush's "failed policies."
"It is offensive and dishonest for Barack Obama to lie about John McCain's record on immigration and years of support for the Hispanic community when it was Barack Obama himself who voted for 'poison pill' amendments that killed the effort at immigration reform," Diaz-Balart said in a statement. "Instead of making false ads with baseless attacks, Barack Obama should be apologizing to the Latino community."

With thousands of reporters and political bigwigs in Denver and the Twin Cities for the next two weeks, the Israel Project is hoping to seize the moment for a message underscoring the importance of a nuclear-free Iran.
The nonpartisan advocacy group is running two TV spots in both markets during the national conventions. "Nuclear Iran," the harder-hitting of the two, opens with an unsettling comparison: "Imagine Denver under missile attack from nearby Boulder." The ad goes on to explain that Israel faces those kinds of attacks from Hamas and Hezbollah, funded in part by Iran. Israel Project President Jennifer Laszlo Mizrahi said likening Iranian nuclear attacks to one here at home helps reiterate how imminently the issue should be dealt with. "People already understand the threat but the urgency of the threat is something we're trying to bring home by pointing out the facts of what the outcome could be if we do nothing," Mizrahi said. The group is planning to run another version of this spot during the GOP convention with a Minnesota-specific reference.
The other ad, "Partners In Renewable Energy," stresses how energy independence from the Middle East would lead to a peaceful Israel while encouraging investment in renewable energy. "Israel and America. Partners in a changing world. That means a commitment to freedom, including freedom from giving our gas dollars to the Middle East," the announcer says.
Mizrahi said the sheer number of influential people attending the conventions -- from delegates to world leaders to reporters -- was the impetus behind tailoring the ads to convention attendees. The ads will air more than a thousand times on the major news channels in both convention cities.
"For politics, the conventions are like the Super Bowl plus the Olympics put together," Mizrahi said. "And because this year, more than ever before, I see momentum moving significantly toward helping reduce our dependency on foreign oil.... This seemed like the perfect opportunity, perfect storm, to communicate with the world."

Iraq has taken some of the limelight back from the weak economy this week as both Barack Obama and John McCain have talked up the topic on the presidential trail. Two third-party groups, meanwhile, are up with new ads calling out certain lawmakers on the war.
Vets For Freedom continues its campaign highlighting the success of the surge strategy in Iraq with its latest ad (subscription), launching today in five battleground states. MoveOn.org Political Action, meanwhile, is chastising (subscription) McCain on national cable for not supporting a timetable to withdraw troops from the region.
In the Vets For Freedom spot, called "Some In Washington," seven veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan call out Washington critics -- specifically Obama and Sens. Harry Reid, D-Nev., Chuck Hagel, R-Neb. -- for saying early on that the surge would fail. "Some in Washington told us the war was lost," one veteran says. "Others said the surge would fail," another asserts. "Today, even the harshest critics agree: The surge worked," another one says. The ad concludes by reiterating the message of the group's first ad (subscription): "Finish the job" in Iraq.
MoveOn.org Political Action, on the other hand, isn't too happy about McCain's rejection of a timetable. In "Timetable," a narrator says that the Arizona senator is at odds with everyone -- both at home and abroad -- on this issue. "In Chicago, in St. Louis and in Seattle, the American people are demanding a timetable for withdrawal from Iraq," the narrator says. "In Baghdad and Basra and Tikrit, the Iraqi people -- and now the Iraqi prime minister -- are also demanding a timetable. But John McCain doesn't want a timetable."

As Barack Obama catches heat for "refining" his stance on --pulling U.S. troops from -->Iraq, a veterans group has launched a new ad toeing the John McCain line on the war. While the ad does not mention either of the presidential candidates by name, the message is clear: Obama's plan to end the war is misguided.
Vets For Freedom is an organization of Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans which, according to its Web site, aims to "educate the American public about the importance of achieving success in these conflicts." The group is embarking this week on a "Four Months, For Victory" media and grassroots campaign, set to run from now until Veterans Day, highlighting what it claims has been the "phenomenal success" of the surge strategy in Iraq .
"Finish The Job" (subscription), which kicks off the media blitz, features --eight-->six veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts, as well as a mother whose son is still in Iraq, explaining "the facts" --about what is going on -->on the ground. "Casualties are at an all-time low," one vet states, while another adds, "Al Qaida in Iraq is decimated." A quote from a Washington Post editorial also appears on screen, stating that "the Iraqi government and army have gained control."

In John McCain's first major ad buy (subscription) of the general election, he highlights his family's tradition of military service while distancing himself from hawks who would talk "tough or romantically about war." The ad debuted Friday in nearly a dozen crucial battleground states, where McCain hopes to woo former supporters of Hillary Rodham Clinton before party lines reharden.
The ad maintains an appropriately somber tone throughout, positioning McCain's face in shadows and showing black-and-white images of his family in war over a soundtrack of mournful strings. It stresses that military experience -- something the GOP has repeatedly said its young Democratic opponent lacks -- is crucial to lead a country during a time of war. "I hate war. And I know how terrible its costs are," McCain says near the end of the spot. "I'm running for president to keep the country I love safe."

The Middle East has been in the limelight this past week as top world and national leaders gathered for the American Israel Public Affairs Committee's annual conference in Washington, D.C. Among those who spoke on --both-->Israel and peace in the Middle East --more generally included-->were Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert [PDF], as well as presidential candidates Barack Obama, John McCain and Hillary Rodham Clinton. One --key-->topic--, however,--> has received --a particularly scrutinized discussion-->particular scrutiny at the conference -- Iran and the threat of nuclear weapons.
Nonprofit group The Israel Project released two TV ads on Sunday that capitalize on the attention Israel has been receiving amid the conference, which concluded Wednesday. The first ad (subscription) urges U.S. involvement in Iran--, pointing to France and Germany as countries that have acknowledged Iran as a threat.-->. "Isn't it time for the U.S. to use strong economic diplomacy to peacefully stop Iran's nuclear program?" an announcer insists-- in the ad-->.
The second ad (subscription) focuses on rocket attacks launched against Israel by "Iran-backed Hamas." "Israeli families are being targeted and killed. Children run from playgrounds to bomb shelters," an announcer says. "When will the rockets stop so both sides can live in peace?"

At least John McCain knows what he'll be up against in the general election. With the Democratic candidates otherwise occupied and six months to go before the presidential vote, there are already two ads on the air that use McCain's "100 years" remarks on Iraq to paint him as a standard-bearer for President Bush's policies.
MoveOn.org today announced the launch of --the newest Iraq ad, -->"Candles," which uses the image of a birthday cake with a century's worth of burning candles to characterize McCain's plan for Iraq as dangerously --and -->open-ended. "One hundred years in Iraq?" an announcer says. "And you thought no one could be worse than George Bush." "Candles" joins a similar spot put out earlier this week by the Democratic National Committee-- that's already on the air-->.
MoveOn is running the ad on nationwide cable, as well as in New Mexico and Iowa -- two likely swing states where McCain has already begun airing general election ads. Republicans have protested that Democrats and outside groups are taking McCain's remarks out of context, but they may have to get used to it. The fact that two ads are already deploying the "100 years" charge against him suggests the soundbite -- as well as the picture of McCain embracing Bush that closes MoveOn's ad -- will only continue to haunt the Arizona senator in the coming months.

The furor over a Democratic National Committee ad that uses footage of John McCain's --saying he "wouldn't mind" if the U.S. remained in Iraq a century from now-->"100 years in Iraq" comment has only grown since the spot hit national cable stations on Monday. Before the ad was even on the air, the Republican National Committee released a statement castigating the ad's claims as "distortions and smears," and the GOP has only stepped up the pressure in the following days.
In "100," the DNC --shortens-->condenses McCain's answer from a January town hall event in which he compared a long-term presence in Iraq to U.S. policies in South Korea. "Bush has talked about our staying in Iraq for 50 years," begins a questioner in the audience. "Maybe 100," McCain responds. "That'd be fine by me." The spot then shows scenes of chaos in Iraq, suggesting that McCain was referring to 100 more years of war rather than a peaceful U.S. presence. "If all he offers is more of the same, is John McCain the right choice for America's future?" an announcer asks as the ad concludes.
On Monday, RNC Chairman Mike Duncan called on TV stations not to air "100" and accused national Democrats of illegally coordinating their advertising with the party's presidential candidates. Continuing the tit for tat, DNC Chairman Howard Dean defended the ad in a conference call with reporters yesterday, --in which he called-->calling McCain "completely out of touch" on the war.
The RNC isn't the only group leveling accusations of illegal coordination between candidates and outside parties. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee filed a petition with the IRS today challenging the nonprofit status of conservative advocacy group Freedom's Watch, --for-->which is running attack ads in the ongoing La.-06 special election.

If you're having a problem with substance abuse, there are a lot of people you could turn to for help. A doctor, perhaps; maybe your pastor; or, failing that, a D-list celebrity with a history of substance abuse. If you're in need of that last one, we're happy to inform you that Michael Lohan, father of six-time rehab visitor Lindsay Lohan, has decided to open his own clinic. And we have decided to suggest some slogans for him. Here you go, Michael!
The Lohan Clinic: Because Rehab is the Family Business
The Lohan Clinic: When You're In Need of a Comeback
The Lohan Clinic: A Chance to Lilo For a While
The Lohan Clinic: Michael Didn't Get That Reality Show
According to his press release, Michael Lohan was "inspired by his faith" to open "the nation's first faith based clinical treatment center." So basically, he is inventing an entirely new kind of sobriety program based on Christianity! Except, wait, aren't there lots of those already? Including a little program called Alcoholics Anonymous, which Michael Lohan actively participates in? Yeah, that's what we thought.
But speaking of rehab and Lohans, it appears that Lindsay may be changing rehab facilities again. Last week, she left Betty Ford for the Cliffside Clinic in Malibu, amid rumors that she wasn't cooperating with the program. Now the NY Daily News reports that she's headed to the Seafield Center in New York -- which is, ironically, where the judge ordered her to go for her 90-day sentence in the first place. Maybe she's secret-shopping rehab centers to give her dad tips? Doubtful. Still, at this point, she could practically write a Zagats guide.

Outreach Program Focuses On Teachers Aides

MAILED: February 11, 1998
EAU CLAIRE -- Teacher aides play an important role in the daily activities of students in almost every school in Wisconsin.
But many find themselves in situations they're unprepared for, such as supervising students on the playground, in the hallways or during lunch.
To hone the skills needed to be an effective teacher aide, the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire Education Outreach will sponsor "Effective Aideing in Education," a workshop to provide participants with strategies and techniques needed to supervise and discipline students.
The one-day workshop will be held from 9 a.m.-3:30 p.m. at four locations in Wisconsin this spring. Locations include Comfort Suites Rock Garden in Green Bay on Feb. 26, Best Western Midway Hotel in Wausau on March 26, Best Western Midway Hotel in Brookfield on April 22, and Holiday Inn-West in Madison on April 23.
The workshop will be facilitated by Dr. T. J. Sheridan, who has more than 30 years of experience training teachers and aides.
Regular and special education aides who want to improve their instructional skills and become more knowledgeable in the basic tasks associated with their jobs are encouraged to attend.
The cost of the workshop is $95 per participant, which includes materials, refreshments and lunch.
For a brochure or more information about the workshop, contact the Education Outreach office at (715) 836-5843.

Question NASA Yuri Krasilnikov, Eric Jones and photoshopped NASA images
November 7, 2012 in Science
AwE130 is concerned about the historical values of the ALSJ. After we had informed the ALSJ of photoshopped material without proper information in the caption of the image the ALSJ editors called AwE130 hoaxers and did not want to work together with us anymore? Despite we have always stated to them that we do not support the CT side nor the pro Apollo side. We are representing the people that have some doubt about the Apollo moon landings. This doubt could come from wrong information in the ALSJ as we have showed them. We are investigating the historical values of the ASLJ and if they are willing to correct errors and mistakes. We released this video to show that the altered material, the ALSJ is using, is for any real historian a absolute no no without proper information. We also start to think that if the Apollo moon landings did happen, that it could be the historical incorrectness of the ALSJ that could be the reason why many people have doubts about the Photo material. When a historical archive photoshops image without informing the reader it is a big concern to any historian. We have found many more photoshopped images without any information at all. Caption with image reads: High resolution version with anaglyphs in context ( 10 Mb ) by Yuri Krasilnikov and Eric Jones.
Information Eric jones (Editor ALSJ):
Information Yuri Krasilnikov:
If they really are concerned about the historical values they would join the whisper and start to correct this information.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) issued new standards Jan. 17 for the mortgage servicing industry, including procedures for managing delinquent loans and helping troubled borrowers avoid foreclosure.
The final rules under the Truth in Lending Act and the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act address a wide range of loan servicing topics, from collecting payments and providing mortgage statements to early intervention with delinquent borrowers and the foreclosure process.
Some of the changes are mandated by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, while others were promulgated under the CFPB's discretionary authority to regulate the mortgage industry.
CFPB Director Richard Cordray discussed mortgage servicing regulations Jan. 17 at an agency field hearing in Atlanta. "We believe that today's rules are all the more important because of the basic structure of the mortgage servicing market," he said in prepared remarks.
"For the consumer, this relationship often is not a matter of voluntary choice. After a borrower chooses a lender and takes on a mortgage, the responsibility for managing that loan can be transferred to another provider without any say-so from the borrower," Cordray said. "So if consumers are dissatisfied with their customer service, they have no opportunity to protect themselves by switching to another servicer."
Dodd-Frank requires that periodic mortgage statements to borrowers disclose the amount of the principal obligation, the current interest rate and the reset date if applicable, information on prepayment penalties and late fees, as well as contact information for the servicer, and home counseling information.
The CFPB rules mandate that other information also be included, including upcoming payment obligations, the application of past payments, a list of recent transaction activity, and other account information.
On interest-rate resets, servicers will be required to provide consumers with a notice between 210 and 240 days prior to the first payment due with the adjusted rate.
When collecting from borrowers, servicers will be required to credit payments on the same day they were received. Servicers also must provide an accurate mortgage payoff balance to a consumer no later than seven business days after a borrower requests such information, according to the rules.
The regulations set new procedural requirements for servicers to respond to other information requests or complaints from borrowers. Servicers must respond to borrowers within five days.
The rules also state that servicers are generally required to conduct investigations when errors are asserted by the consumer. The error must be fixed, or the servicer must provide written notification that no error occurred, within 30 to 45 days, according to the bureau.
The CFPB regulations also provide special protections for borrowers who experience trouble making their monthly mortgage payments.
Early-intervention procedures require servicers to establish contact or make "good-faith efforts" to establish contact with borrowers within 35 days of their delinquency and inform them of loss mitigation options. The servicer also must provide written notice of those potential options within 45 days of the borrower's delinquency.
The rule also places significant restrictions on the industry practice of "dual tracking," in which a servicer can proceed with foreclosure while also evaluating a borrower for a potential loan modification or other assistance.
During a Jan. 16 conference call with reporters, a senior CFPB official said that the final rule provides stronger protections than were initially proposed by the bureau in August (24 BBLR 1078, 8/16/12).
The proposed rule focused on the "back-end" of the process as borrowers neared foreclosure. But the final rule states that borrowers must be notified and evaluated for potential assistance options during the "beginning, middle and end" of a prolonged period of loan delinquency, the official said.
Servicers also must provide delinquent borrowers with direct access to employees who handle loan modifications and those personnel are responsible for alerting borrowers to any missing information on their applications and informing them about the status of their requests.
During the review process, servicers must consider "all options" available from the mortgage owners or investors, ranging from deferment of payments to refinancings to loan modifications, the CFPB also said.
To give borrowers additional time to submit applications, the regulations prohibit servicers from filing foreclosure notices until the loan is more than 120 days past due.
Even if a borrower is more than 120 days delinquent, if a borrower then submits a complete application for a loan modification, servicers would be required to at least evaluate the application, the agency said.
If a borrower is rejected for assistance, the servicer must explain the decision. For example, if the decision was based upon a financial model, the servicer must provide the borrower with the specific inputs used in making their calculations, according to CFPB.
If a workout cannot be achieved, the servicer must consider the borrower for alternatives to foreclosure, such as a short sale, the rules states.
Many elements of the CFPB regulations are similar to the terms of the $25 billion national mortgage settlement reached in February 2012 between the nation's five largest servicers and a coalition of federal agencies and 49 states (24 BBLR 222, 2/16/12).
The larger servicers signed and filed thousands of foreclosure affidavits with state courts without reviewing the validity or accuracy of the documents. Federal and state regulators found a host of other problems related to mortgage servicing, such as inadequate staffing and resources to handle borrower inquiries.
The CFPB's final regulations provide a number of exemptions and other adjustments for small loan servicers that handle 5,000 or fewer mortgages. The agency had initially proposed a threshold of 1,000 loans, but received negative feedback from community banks and credit unions during the rule's comment period (24 BBLR 1378, 10/25/12).
An exemption for servicers that handle 1,000 loans or less, "is likely to be of little practical utility," the Credit Union National Association (CUNA) wrote in an Oct. 9 letter.
Elsewhere, the CFPB rules will require more transparency in the process of force-placed, or lender-placed, insurance.
Servicers are responsible for ensuring borrowers maintain property insurance. If the borrower does not insure, the servicer has the right to purchase insurance to protect a lender's interest in the property.
However, this force-placed insurance is typically much more expensive than insurance the borrower could buy privately.
The CFPB regulations require servicers to give advance notice and pricing information before charging consumers for the insurance. The servicer will have to notify a borrower twice before the servicer charges the borrower for the insurance--first, at least 45 days before, and then again at least 15 days before.
The servicer is also required to end the insurance within 15 days if it gets evidence that the borrower has the necessary insurance and the insurer would refund the force-placed insurance premiums.
The final mortgage servicing standards are available at http://www.consumerfinance.gov/regulations.

Shaking up the varsity eight lineup just a bit, head coach Pat Tynan got solid results from his top boat as the Cardinals placed second of four boats during their first trip to Lake Quinsigamond in Worcester, Mass. this spring. Covering the 2000m course in 7:11.9, Wesleyan stroked past Smith by 0.6 seconds in an exciting finish as the Cardinals came from behind to grab second. WPI, which won the race by a margin of 3.8 seconds, also trailed Smith most of the race but made up the difference and then some in the final 800m. With coxswain Sami Pop '11 steering the crew of Megan Nash '14, Greer Dent '12, Becca Schofield '11 (photo insert upper left), Haley Sacks '13, Clare Doyle '14, Isabelle Gauthier '14, Catie Steidl '11, Erin Kelly '12, Wesleyan enjoyed the fruits of its labors to improve to 3-4 on the year. Doyle was making her first-ever appearance in the varsity eight.
Following the season, Schofield received her second all-NESCAC nod as she was chosen for the second team. A year ago, Schofield was a first-team selection. In addition, eight Wesleyan women were recognized by the Collegiate Rowing Coaches Association as national scholar-athletes. This group included Schofield, along with Steidl, Dent, Kelly, Robin Cotter '13, Margo Tercek '13, Yara Kass-Gergi '12 and Alexa Atamanchuk '12.
Wesleyan was most effective in the second varsity eight race as the Cardinals defeated all three rivals with a 7.4-second margin of victory over Smith. The accomplished second varsity eight boat was composed of cox Atamanchuk, Emilie Sinkler '14, Becky Gillig '12, Kass-Gergi, Kayla Cloud '14, Tercek, Emily Johnson '13, Emily Klein '14, and Cotter. The Cardinals were 2.8 seconds behind Smith's "A" boat in the third varsity eight race, matching the varsity eight with a second-place effort among four boats.
Wesleyan headed to its fourth different racing site of the spring, but a familiar location over the years, Sat., April 9, when the squad ventured to Malden, Mass. to take on Tufts, Bates and Wellesley in a four-team affair. Wesleyan faced Bates in its opening race, falling by a 15.3-second margin. That put Wesleyan up against Tufts for its second battle and the Jumbos grabbed a win by a five-second cushion.
In other races of the day, the second varsity eight fell to Bates, then downed Tufts. The third varsity eight matched the effort of the second varsity.
On Sat., April 16, the crew returned to Worcester, Mass. with opponents Williams and Ithaca. Williams, ranked #1 in New England, defeated Wesleyan in a head-to-head varsity 8 race by about 40 seconds. The Ephs also took the second varsity 8 race by 26 seconds and was the winner of a three-way affair in the third varsity 8, posting a 38-second margin of victory. Wesleyan was 23 seconds ahead of Ithaca in the third varsity race.
Wesleyan took on Trinity Sat., April 23 in its final dual race, held on the Yale University course on the Housatonic River in Derby. Trinity, ranked third in New England, swept the three varsity races, taking the first varsity eight by a 20-second margin.
The Cardinals went on to compete in the annual New England Championships, held on Lake Quinsigamond Sat, April 30, for their next action. Wesleyan finished just about on its seed, coming in 14th of 17 entries. The Cardinals defeated UMass Lowell in their heat, then conquered Tufts and Colby during the third-level final in the varsity eight division. Wesleyan's second varsity eight placed 14th of 15 crews and the third varsity eight had a strong effort in placing fourth of 10.
The Cardinals closed out the spring campaign with another journey to Worcester, Mass., for the ECAC National Invitational Collegiate Regatta Sun., May 8. The Cardinals' varsity eight finished 15 second behind heat winner Wellesley and gained a spot in the third-level finals. Wesleyan's last race of the season brought about a fifth-place effort, 10.7 seconds shy of race winner Smith, putting the Cardinals in 15th place overall among 21 entrants. The second varsity eight won its third-level final to come in 13th among 18 crews. The third varsity eight came in third in its heat to secure a spot in the grand final. Wesleyan ended up sixth of 12 in the event.

Dr. Benoit's "Joy of Pet Ownership"
by gwilson on Oct.18, 2013, under Projects
Each year when Dr. Benoit teaches our freshman BIMS course on Unicellular Organisms, students leave with more than just knowledge and a grade….they take with them a pet.
In BIMS 1101 Unicellular Organisms Lab, Dr. Benoit takes students through an amazing tour of the unseen world, one filled with bacteria and protozoa and algae and yeast. The course teaches basic cell biology and the diversity that exists among the smallest forms of life. As a way of demonstrating the metabolic diversity of bacteria, all students create Winogradsky columns by filling Falcon flasks with diatomaceous earth, a variety of chemicals, and some water drawn from pond sludge (see photo). These are the students' pets, cared for and tended to by the students. Dr. B encourages students to drop by the lab regularly to visit their pets and to enjoy their journey to maturation. At the end of the semester, students are free to take them home where they can continue to mature and change for many years.
The preparation begins white usually, but chemical changes caused by a variety of bacterial turn the many minerals present into a technicolor show. A good balance of chemicals and diversity of bacteria can result in reds and greens and blacks and yellows and purples as one species of bacteria after another transforms the minerals into colorful compounds. It is the microbial equivalent of a garden filled with diverse plants.
As educational as the Winogradsky column is, the fun take on the project by Dr. Benoit demonstrates an important component of science at McMurry – if it isn't fun, something is wrong!
Oil Spills – There's an App for That!
by gwilson on May.20, 2010, under A Day in the Life...
The horrible disaster in the Gulf of Mexico caused by the explosion and sinking of the BP oil platform is all over the news. Devastation to the landscape and wildlife all along the Gulf Coast is sure to be a topic of discussion for months and years to come. Lawsuits will be in the headlines, and government finger-pointing is going to part of coming elections. How could such a thing happen? How can such pervasive damage be repaired?
News videos for the past two weeks have shown use of booms, human hair, and chemical dispersants to try to minimize the amount of oil reaching shore. However, little has been said about the use of microbes to help digest the oil and remove it from the water and shoreline. One amazing fact about microbes is that when it comes to the versatility of their metabolism and their physiological capabilities, there are few organic chemicals that one or another critter can't break down. Oil included. For example, the Exxon Valdez mess was cleaned up in part using oil-eating bacteria.
You might say – "Getting rid of oil coating the shoreline and contaminating the environment? There's an app for that!"
Both of McMurry's microbiologists, Drs. Tom Benoit and Gary Wilson, have experience in the use of microbes to remove oil and other hydrocarbons from contaminated soil and water. Benoit has extensive involvement in reducing hydrocarbon contaminants from water. In fact, he helped design a facility for the City of Nacogdoches (TX) that removes such pollutants from wastewater entering its sewage treatment facility. It uses microbes to destroy harmful chemicals that would choke the sewage treatment plant and slow return of treated wastewater to the environment. Wilson worked with a local electricity provider to help reduce the hydrocarbon counts in contaminated soil by more than 90% to significantly reduce the cost of disposal. In both instances, encouraging the growth of harmless microbes that devour oil and other organic compounds in the water and soil helped protect the environment. Chances are, students in BIMS courses this fall will find themselves doing research to try to maximize the effectiveness of similar organisms in eliminating crude oil-based pollution.
You may not be able to download the magic microbes as an app for your iPhone, but microbiology provides an answer to some of life's trickiest problems.
BIMS Retreat Planned for Friday August 14th
by gwilson on Aug.11, 2009, under A Day in the Life...
This Friday, the faculty of the Biomedical Science Program will meet for a retreat to discuss our first year of operation and plan for the year ahead. Attending will be Tom Benoit, Heidi DiFrancesca, and Gary Wilson from Biology, Paul Pyenta from Chemistry & Biochemistry, and Alicia Wyatt from Computer Science. Larry Sharp is on vacation and will miss the meeting.
In reviewing the first year of operation, many milestones suggest a rich and profitable future for the program. The first year saw over 20 students declare a BIMS major, mostly incoming freshmen interested in health professions or biotech. The new courses were very well populated. Growing publicity from the city fathers, The Development Corporation of Abilene, the TTU School of Pharmacy, and local biotech firm Receptor Logic helped to strengthen our position as the premiere life science/biotech training program in Abilene. Heidi DiFrancesca and Hyunshun Shin from Chemistry & Biochemistry have begun collaborating on a project to develop and test new treatments for breast cancer. And McMurry has seen the value in promoting these endeavors through funding for equipment and supplies to support the research-in-teaching approach used in BIMS.
I'm sure some time will be spent discussing the parallel development of the biotech infrastructure in Abilene, with a variety of support facilities (including the Abilene Life Sciences Foundation Research Accelerator facility) coming on line. Add to this the decision by Abilene Independent School District to start a new engineering/computer science high school this fall and you have converging efforts that point to a bright future. One of the tracks possible at the new high school is biotech engineering, which Dr. Jon Weidanz from TTUHSC-School of Pharmacy and I are promoting.
So what does the future hold? That is the reason for our retreat! I expect that we'll see growing commitments to link our courses together and use our BIMS lab courses to conduct research. We'll see BIMS-focused proposals for the lab renovation competition being held on campus later this month. We'll see plans for research grants and programs to help high school science teachers learn and implement new methods, techniques, and equipment into their courses. We'll see more articulation agreements with professional schools for pharmacy, physical therapy, and who knows what else! Clearly, BIMS is on the move and possesses the creative firepower to transform the sciences at McMurry. Thoughtful planning and staged implementation are keys to making that happen.
Check back in a few weeks as I give an update on the event!

31 in Florida infected by salt-water bacteria
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Patty Konietzky thought the small purple lesion on her husband's ankle was a spider bite. But when the lesion quickly spread across his body like a constellation, she knew something wasn't right.
After a trip to the hospital and a day and a half later, Konietzky's 59-year-old husband was dead.

Circumcision used to be a given, at least here in the United States. In 1980, almost 76 percent of all baby boys born in the Midwest were circumcised; nationally, the number was 65 percent. More recently, however, the statistics have told a different story: In 2006, just over half (56%) of all American newborns were circumcised.
An increasing number of parents (myself included) looked at their beautiful, perfect baby boys and could see absolutely no reason to cut off their foreskins. We found strength in the most recent statement about circumcision by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP): "Circumcision has potential medical benefits and advantages, as well as risks. The existing scientific evidence is not sufficient to recommend routine circumcision."
But recent research has some expectant parents wondering if the trend away from circumcision could ultimately be harmful. The latest studies argue that circumcision decreases the spread of human papillomavirus (HPV), a virus that causes cervical, anal and oral cancers. And according to a clinical review in The Journal of the American Osteopathic Association, circumcision seems to help males rid their bodies of the HPV strains most likely to cause cancer.
As a mom who's had HPV -- and pre-cancerous changes removed from her cervix as a result -- I'm intrigued. I certainly don't want my sons spreading HPV to my future daughters-in-law. But I'm still not sure I'd circumcise my sons, especially when there's another option: vaccination. Three injections of an HPV vaccine given over six months between the ages of 9 and 26 will protect boys from HPV as well.
New research aside, the decision whether or not to circumcise your infant son still isn't an easy one for parents to make. Read the research, weigh your options and make a decision that reflects your values. You won't regret it.
