She's gorgeous and, if her genes have anything to say about it, brilliant. If I had a juice box, I'd raise it to her, but she'll have to settle for a pint of Stella Artois.July 30, 2003 - 11:01 am Link to this Comment

You have to wonder what it'll be like for Gnat when she grows up. Everywhere she goes she's going to run into Bleat readers. I mean no criticism–the Bleat has no bigger fan than I. I just hope she ends up a breezy, outgoing person who thinks it's great that people the world over know all about her childhood. And hey–maybe it's an advantage. I mean, if her resume crossed my desk, I'd hire her.
Anyway, happy birthday to Gnat, and congratulations to her mom and dad on having such a charming little girl.July 30, 2003 - 11:55 am Link to this Comment

Developer Buys Promontory at AuctionMonday, April 27th, 2009
In the spring of 2008 creditors forced the Promontory luxury golf subdivision in Park City, UT into bankruptcy. The developer, Arizona based Pivotal defaulted on loans amounting to over $270M.
On April 15, 2009 a group named Pivotal 7000 headed by the CEO of Pivotal, Francis Najafi, purchased the development for a price far less than the debt on which Pivotal defaulted. The $70M bid by Najafi which was approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court effectively wiped out $275M in loans that had been packaged by Credit Suisse.
During the bankruptcy, Promontory maintained its operations which consist of two golf courses, clubhouses (golf, tennis, kids, outfitters, etc) an equestrian facility and more than 1000 building lots. The assets have been valued between $230M and $560M.
The new ownership plans to move forward with Promontory's original vision for the second home luxury community. While some property owners within Promontory may still have a bad taste for Pivotal, the fact that the development is no longer in bankruptcy and is being run by a company familiar with the project may be a benefit. Promontory's plan of reorganization binds Pivotal 7000, LLC, as the new owner, to observe key provisions of the court-approved plan and sale procedures. These provisions include the obligation to honor Promontory's county-approved master plan, the Promontory Club's membership agreements and membership plan, and the assumption of all lot purchase agreements with Promontory lot and home owners. In addition, provisions have been made in the plan for funding of legitimate unsecured creditor claims and the creation of a reserve fund for Promontory's homeowners' association, the Promontory Conservancy.
The stigma of bankruptcy and the relatively large number of speculative purchases and building that was done by private investors has hurt the market in Promontory. The luxury homes that are for sale in the Promontory area are currently some of the best values in Park City. Now may be a perfect time to invest or purchase a second home in a golf course community as the developer should be on much more stable ground for the near future.
On another positive note, Golf Digest just ranked the Jack Nicklaus and Pete Dye designed courses at Promontory as the number 2 and 3 courses in the state behind Glenwild (also in Park City).

Volvo XC60 Wind Noise
Just bought a new xc60 turbo and i really love everything about it. Except when on the highway it sounds like a window is a bit open. Not sure if i need the windshield sealed, or is this somewhat common in this car? Anyone else experience it?
Hmmm. I can't see how a luxury vehicle has wind noise like a less expensive model. It's strange. There is little road noise except when going over bumps at speed. There is also very little engine noise at highway speeds so the wind noise is really standing out. It seems the 2011 XC60 I test drove (pre-November model) handled bumps with more rigidity and less noise than mine.
I've got a few general quality issues with my XC60, so I'll email Volvo USA to let them know eventually. Basically my quality comparisons are with the 2011 Audi Q5 which in the same price range and class (and garage).
rapidrick Posts: 70I got an 08 C30 and it has the wind noise. Many words have been written on this issue. It is the mirrors. Fix can be done by the dealers if they read the service blurb. C30 World can clue you in as well, as the thraed is pinned.
I don't know which blurb it is, nor do I care, for I am one with the wind noise. :P
abmwfan Posts: 47My 2012 S60 T6 had a problem of wind noise and whistling from the passenger side-view mirror at highway speeds. The noise was most noticeable when driving in a cross wind. This is a known problem. The dealer's service department replaced the seals around both side-view mirrors and the problem was completely solved.
A tech bulletin was listed in a different forum (RTJ 23725). The current part numbers for the seals to fix this problem are 31335274-1 and -9.

Today I met with
and I was glad to hear the interest in Open Source in Afghanistan among students and recent IT graduates is increasing. Afghanistan still has a high degree of illiteracy. The IT literacy is therefore even more limited, but even among the small IT community the sense for the advantages of free and open source software and its business opportunities is very strong.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Some positive light was shed on the SU men's basketball program Monday. Both major polls put the Orange at number one in the country.
SU beat George Washington convincingly over the weekend, while Kentucky and Ohio State in front of them took losses.
This is the first time SU has been at the top of the polls since the final week of the 2009-2010 regular season. It's also the first time in a couple of weeks the program has been making headlines for the right reasons.
The top spot in the country has students feeling better about their surroundings.
"It really makes me enjoy going here a lot more. The spirits are definitely a lot higher around campus. And it's really good to be ranked number one at a division one level because it really makes the school look good, gives the school some good publicity with everything going on with Bernie Fine right now," SU student Brandon Duplain said.
"I'm surprised for everybody involved that attitudes have been as good and in is in good morale as they have been considering everything that's been going on. And this is exactly what needed to happen, that people need to realize that this is the school. And the actions of one man do not reflect the entire program. And this is what comes of that, you know. It's about the basketball and not about the controversy," SU student Evan Fonseca said.
Bernie Fine denies all allegations against him and no charges have been filed.

In the US Senate last week, Sen. Tammy Baldwin (WI) spoke some serious truth to power:
"The truth is, while you hear a lot about the wide distance between Democrats and Republicans, the widest and most important distance in our political system is between the content of the debate here in Washington and the concerns of working families in places like Wisconsin. That distance parallels the large and growing gaps between the rich and the poor … between rising costs and stagnant incomes … between our nation and our competitors when it comes to education and innovation. And it's really hurting people."

Life After Life: A Novel
Publisher Reagan Arthur Books
Publication Date 2013-04-02
Section New Hardcover - Fiction
Format Hardcover
What if you could live again and again, until you got it right?
On a cold and snowy night in 1910, Ursula Todd is born to an English banker and his wife. She dies before she can draw her first breath. On that same cold and snowy night, Ursula Todd is born, lets out a lusty wail, and embarks upon a life that will be, to say the least, unusual. For as she grows, she also dies, repeatedly, in a variety of ways, while the young century marches on towards its second cataclysmic world war.
Does Ursula's apparently infinite number of lives give her the power to save the world from its inevitable destiny? And if she can—will she?
Darkly comic, startlingly poignant, and utterly original—this is Kate Atkinson at her absolute best.

Out of Stock
Item # RSX0042
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Seatposts in stock than that.
RockShox Reverb Seatpost $0.00
Perfect saddle height—instantly.
Adjustable seatposts have quickly become the norm for all-mountain and freeride mountain bikes. When the first mechanically operated posts started to appear on long-travel bikes, they were heavy and finicky (the HiteRite aside, of course). However, advantages far outweighed disadvantages and their popularity quickly grew. adjustable seatposts have come a long way since then, and now products like the RockShox Reverb 125mm take advantage of extensive suspension technology to offer smooth, slop-free operation.
By opting for a hydraulic actuation of a cable, the Reverb is the first post to eliminate any mechanical connection. Hydraulics may be cause for alarm, but if you're running disc brakes they're more than likely hydraulic -- and share the same, basic principles. Expect the Reverb to be as reliable and easy-to-service as any modern hydraulic disc brake. RockShox is so sure of hydraulics that they use it to operate their remote fork lock-outs too. In fact, both the Reverb and RockShox suspension lock-out systems use a bar-mounted XLoc remote.
This system uses 2.5-weight fork oil, and comes with the necessary materials and instructions to shorten and bleed the line. It won't become contaminated with grit like cables, and it's also lighter than a comparable cable-actuated unit. Fluid in the line opens and closes the Reverb's main oil-flow valve, allowing the post to drop, and the aluminum knob at the lever controls how fast the post returns to its static position. The post has 125mm of travel, and its height is infinitely adjustable.
RockShox has an advantage over other dropper post designs due to its extensive suspension technologies. For example, the seals used are optimized to prevent contamination from dirt and water, and, just like fork seals, they're free from friction out of the box. You'll also find an IFP, an internal floating piston, which is another shared technology from RockShox's forks and shocks. The IFP prevents the oil from mixing with the air preload and offers a buffer if your buddy decides to lift the saddle up without pressing the XLoc button.
Both the post shaft and head are constructed out of forged 7050 aluminum and they're anodized for durability. Longer-than-average clamps support the saddle rails, which simplifies saddle fore and aft adjustment, as well as tilt, by making the two bolts easy to access. Markings on the head and clamp also assist with fine tuning.
The XLoc remote is compatible with MatchMaker X mounts to allow integration with brake lever and shifter clamps for a clean cockpit. The XLoc is available in left and right configurations, to further enhance ergonomics. The Reverb comes in two diameters, 31.6 and 30.9, and two lengths, 420mm and 380mm. It has zero offset.
- Adjustable return speed at the handlebar remote
- Triple-lipped seal system for long maintenance intervals
- Easy-to-use two-bolt clamping system

Best clamp? No. Best Control? Yes.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
As a longtime Thompson devotee, I want to like the Thompson Dropper, but the hydraulic control on the Reverb simply feels the best to me. Get a thumb on it, and you can make fine adjustments to saddle height on a rough descent more easily than on any of the cable actuated posts. My only beef with the Reverb is the way the saddle clamp develops some creaking over time. A little lube or grease on rails and bolts seems to keep things a little quieter.
Daryl Deprey
Gets the job done with ease
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I opted for the Reverb due to its fully hydraulic actuation and to this day am still happy with my decision. The ease of use with the light actuation button (mounted on the underside of my bar on the left) is incomparable to competitors. After 3-5 rides I found myself instinctively using the post with little thought of preparation by either slowing down or glancing at the lever.
The post has been on my bike for 3-4 months now with no issues that weren't solved with general maintenance (aka refill the air chamber to the required PSI). When the air pressure dropped enough below the required height, the saddle would sag through the stroke, but thankfully this was solved within seconds. One thing I would like to point out is seat clamp torque. If this is over tightened there is a good chance the post will not drop or will hang up on release.
That being said, I haven't encountered any of the previous generation issues and am finally convinced a dropper post is a must have for any trail rider out there due to the immense increased to on trail fun.

You need to match the seatpost diameter spec. The length doesn't need to be matched unless you absolutely need the full 400mm

|my parents are redoing their kitchen and are in need of some additional barstools. unfortunately, the barstools that they have and love more than they love me came from storehouse.
does anyone happen to know who made the barstools for storehouse?
thanks so much!
Follow-Up Postings:
|I believe Storehouse sold furniture from several makers so it would be hard to say who made your parents' specific barstools without more information.
I have barstools that I purchased from Storehouse and they were made by a Canadian company called Baronet. My barstools have a Baronet label on the bottom of them so I would imagine your parents' would have some identifying information too. If it does, Google the company and they may still sell the product. I believe mine are still available but only from small boutique type stores.

Even as Breadwin Productions LLC's partnership with Marc Zicree and Michael Reeves yielded TV Guide's top award for the Star Trek episode "World Enough and Time," Breadwin Productions LLC meanwhile has wrapped principal photography on its first short aimed for the Film Festival circuit. The two successes, back-to-back, were both "midwived" by Mark Moran, who was Unit Production Manager on the Trek shoot and directed "Blast and Whisper." Blast and Whisper is a high-definition period piece that paves the way for an increasingly ambitious . . .
Breadwin Productions LLC helps in production of Star Trek"World Enough and Time" episode starring original cast George Takei ("Mr Sulu"). Screenings & world-wide premiere webcast of new Star Trek™ episode will originate from the Fine Arts Theater in Beverly Hills on August 23. To register to stream the episode, log onto
Breadwin's Vision
The more change assails us from all directions, the more fervently heartfelt is our human need to cling to something, somewhere, that fiercely bucks change. We are taught that tradition has proven but a hodgepodge of failed experiments in human progress. But nowhere else outside the rich ore of tradition can we find veins of truth to outlast human whim. For all its wonders, science cannot, nor ever will, measure or even understand good or evil, transcendant love or hate.
Breadwin Productions
Movies with a surgeon's edge to expose and peel away the blunders of tradition, but equally to expose and peel away vandals whose blunders would still the beating heart at tradition's core.

Drag Color Chips
Featured Artist : Katherine Stein |
Artist Bio / Statement
My Name is Katherine Stein and I create in Raleigh, North Carolina. I am a natural "Fiber Loving Chick" and I Dye silk scarves for resale.
I learned Shibori techniques from a friend and was dying primarily with PFD Cotton fabric. After taking a batik class, the teacher had white silk scarves for sale. I bought a couple and, after using Shibori techniques I discovered a true match in heaven. The white Haboti silk scarves I get from Dharma come in a variety of sizes and shapes and they work wonderful with any technique I choose to use. (Shibori, Batik, Brush on, and Ice) I like to imitate what I see nature. Sun rises and sets are great color blend inspirations. The stricking color contrasts in insects and butterflies also generate ideas. Dying with Ice has been a huge help in getting an "out of world" color experience and gives my work a water color effect.
Procion Fiber Reactive Dye is my favorite color application to use. Not only is there a broad range of color and value to use, they can be thickened with Sodium Alginate to create paint like texture which can then used like as paint but dries without a paint texture. They also work well with all different natural fibers like cotton, wool and of course silk. Clean up is really easy as well.
Using Procion Fiber Reactive Dyes I am able to replicate some of these inspirations to create a wonderful kaleidoscope of color and textures.

Rizal's death was no trigger
1 comment:
Thank you for publishing a tribute to our national hero on Rizal Day. I cannot comprehend how a people that produced a selfless hero such as Rizal also produce in great quantities corrupt villains who enrich themselves at the expense of the nation, and who have driven the Philippines to ruin.ReplyDelete
How would Jose Rizal have felt had he know that the country for which he gave his life ended up as one of the worst-ranked countries in the world in terms of corruption, tied at 134 with Nigeria and Sierra Leone? Even worse, every year it slips lower down the rankings.
In an attempt to remind Filipinos of Jose Rizal's ideals, PinoyLeaks is launching today.
Thank you very much for reading my blog. You inspired me. But if you intend to put your name "anonymous", better not comment at all. Thanks!

Senior forward Tom Planek believes Fenwick is a much better team today because of what the team endured at the start of the season.
The Friars played more than half the season without Northwestern recruit Scott Lindsey, who broke his foot during a college visit in the summer.
"We knew we had enough pieces in place to win and be a good basketball team without him," Planek said. "We took advantage of the players we had and were able to get the job done. We're glad Scott is back, though."
Fenwick (21-8) compiled a 12-4 record without the 6-foot-5 Lindsey and improved to 9-4 with its star back in the lineup after beating Farragut 69-56 in the Class 3A Farragut Regional final Friday. Lindsey scored 12 points in the win.

Twice-weekly flights will also be offered between Papua, New Guinea and Coolangatta, Australia with connecting service in Ilford, Canada (a). A video with more information about how JetBlue chose these three new destinations can be found at blog.jetblue.com."They asked and we listened," said Shirley Eugest, director of miscellaneous for JetBlue Airways. "We're all about meeting demand and our loyal customers told us they wanted to fly to these locales.

Last weekend I cruised down to San Juan Capistrano to shoot Rinehart and Jessica's engagement session. The sky was just about ready to unload it's bounty of rain the entire 2 1/2 hour drive there, so on the way, I began thinking of creative ways to use the weather to my advantage. When we finally met, the rain was coming down steadily, and would intermittently stop, then start again. Secretly, I was hoping it would rain, mostly because I love a good challenge, and shooting in these conditions was just that. In Southern California we don't get too much rain, so when it happens, I'm always eager to be out in it. Here now, is the engagement session, in pictures.

Ross & Catherine's Engagement Shoot
I mentioned in the teaser that we had to walk away from the mission in San Juan Capistrano because they were let onto the fact we were about to do a photoshoot. Luckily before the shoot, I did some scouting around the area, and found some great places to have our session, including the Regency Cinema, the Amtrak Depot, and around the historic district.

Richard & Carrie at Forster Mansion
Richard and Carrie were married May 7, 2011 at the beautiful Forster Mansion in San Juan Capistrano, California. There were many surprises at this wedding, including a dog as the ring bearer. The entire wedding, and the celebration afterward was spectacular. Here now, is a small sample of that beautiful day.

The Wedding Dress
It seems as though the wedding dress has become an almost mythical artifact, treasured and saved, becoming heirlooms tucked away in a closet. It is the hope of a lot of brides their dress may get used by their daughter in another wedding in the distant future. If that is the case, why then did they not use their own mother's dress. Maybe it has to do with the style and trends of the time, and the choice to forge your their own path, and choose their own dress.
The choices are endless when it comes to styles, leaving the bride bewildered by the process of deciding what she will be wearing as she walks down the isle. So much fuss has been made over choosing a dress, there is a reality show devoted to just that. I'm not sure if all brides are as emotionally charged about their dress choice, or if there is a bit of drama injected into the mix by TV producers trying to liven the show up.
I do know that on the day of the wedding, the bride will look stunning in what ever she chooses to wear. The dress gets partial credit, the rest goes to the glow of a beautiful woman about to be married. That kind of beauty is priceless. I don't think it is the dress that makes a bride beautiful, but a beautiful bride that makes a dress stunning.

Microburst storm over Burroughs Creek ,
Lawrence, Kansas, 2009
From the SWEETHEART, IS EVERYTHING O.K.? series
Website - PhilipHeying.com
Philip Heying is a photographer living in Lawrence, Kansas. In 1980, he met William S. Burroughs and began a friendship that endured until Burroughs's death in 1997. Burroughs and his circle of friends, from Albert Hoffman and Allen Ginsberg, to Brion Gysin and Timothy Leary provided artistic insight and guidance. Soon after college, curiosity to experience another culture led Heying to France, via coal freighter. Since then his work has been exhibited and published internationally. Heying returned to the U.S. in 1997, settling in Brooklyn, New York, and became an assistant to Irving Penn until the Spring of 2001. In the fall of 2008, he returned from Brooklyn to Kansas to live closer to his family and pursue an idea for a photographic survey that began during a visit in the fall of 2005. He is currently employed as a professor of photography at Johnson County Community College and recently completed a body of photographs of the surprising variety of architecture, cultural and environmental processes to be found within walking distance from his home.

Lamar Odom worried about his wife in the Garden
Via Yahoo!:
"It's a little more hostile in Boston," Lakers forward Lamar Odom said. "I don't know how my wife [reality star Khloe Kardashian] is going to be able to sit in the crowd.
"They gave it to my kids last time in Boston. I can't repeat (what was said). It will be fun. The people were rude to my kids, but it was fun."
If the Boston Crowd was rude to Odom's kids, I can only imagine how they'll treat Khloe. "Worst Kar-Dash-I-an clap-clap-clap-clap-clap. Worst Kar-Dash-I-An clap-clap-clap-clap-clap."
By the way, my friends the other day tried to argue that Khloe would be cute — not hot, but cute — if you saw her in real life. I won't say I disagreed that she'd be cute but goddamn it, have you ever seen Khloe Kardashian?
In other news, Pau Gasol trashed the Garden fans, especially those who threw rocks at the Lakers' bus after the Celtics' series-clinching Game 6 victory. "There are some [expletives] in Boston," he said. "A lot of fans were celebrating. It got a little out of hand."
I don't know if I would ever stoop to throwing rocks at the Lakers' bus, but physically hurting Pau Gasol has always been one of my biggest goals in life.

The Cricket
Gov. Herbert talks about Redford, and his movies
There are a few things that are synonymous with "Utah," according to Gary Herbert — who, as governor of the state, is in a position to know.
"Today, with the Utah brand, there's some things you know about Utah: Mormons — Utah. Utah Jazz — Utah. Sundance, Robert Redford, Sundance Film Festival," Herbert said Saturday. "They're intertwined in our fabric."
Herbert spoke with The Cricket on Saturday, ahead of a gala tribute the Guv threw for Redford at the Grand America Hotel. (Read The Cricket's account of the event here.)
Before the big show, Herbert said Redford, for all his stardom, is just a regular guy to his Utah neighbors.
"We kind of take him for granted. Oh, yeah, he's the guy who lives up Provo Canyon," Herbert said. "We forget he's an American icon. He's as good as it ever gets as an actor."
Herbert talked about some of Redford's classic movies:
"Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" (1969): • "One of my favorite movies of all time, and my wife Jeanette's, is 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.' Some of that's probably because it came out when we were dating. It's just a beautiful, fun movie. It shows parts of Utah. Just one of those buddy movies. I always enjoyed the interplay between him and [Paul Newman]."
"The Sting" (1973) • "The reuniting of Redford and Newman. And again, that interplay, which is pretty unique, between the two of them. It was just wonderful casting."
"The Candidate" (1972) • "I liked the movie, I enjoyed it. I know the end scene, where he's in the hotel room and they've pulled off the big upset, they've just won the election. And he sits on his bed and says, 'What do we do now?' … We see that taking place today. We have people who are really good at campaigning, and good at getting elected, but not so good at governing. That's the hard part, to actually make a difference. Now you're elected, you've got the title, are you going to make a change? Are you going to get something done?"

Musical Grades:
Bye Bye Bye/ I Want It That Way (Original by *NSYNC and Backstreet Boys): Sometimes, there are two great, beautiful things that don't work together. This number was a ton of fun and plus a million points for actually working in the strings of No Strings Attached (Did that bother anyone else? Of course there are strings attached! It's right there on the CD cover!) but I would have preferred a Britney/Christina mashup if we're going with songs from that era. B+
Closer (Original by Tegan and Sara): This was just a few seconds of shower singing in the episode, and we didn't even get some shirtlessness? Unacceptable. Later in the episode, we got the "Ending in the Auditorium" number, which basically just featured the kids running around. B
Cold Hearted (Original by Paula Abdul): I love the fact that Santana's finally getting more numbers. She should always travel with some fly girls. B+
How To Be A Heartbreaker (Marina and the Diamonds): As Brody seductively dances his way through a hotel, Rachel is waiting around at home, playing second fiddle. I love this song (If even a few more people check out Marina and the Diamonds, then this episode was worth it). B+
I Still Believe/Super Bass (Original by Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj): Oh gosh, I don't know how I felt about this. The Mariah Carey part by Blaine was pretty Glee-club standard, but Sue rapping Super Bass with Cheerio back up? Undecided.
The Bitch is Back/Dress You Up (Original by Elton John and Madonna): Now this is a feud, not to mention an enjoyable mash up. Ryder and Unique were a fun pairing, and feud-wise, Elton/Madonna puts nearly everything else to shame. More stuff like this, please. B
Top Lines:
"Go find a new boyfriend. Maybe Lance Bass is available, or RuPaul." –Sue to Tina
"We need to do something muscular, like Biggy versus Tupac. Although we know how that turned out." –Schu
"Blaine is on the bottom" –an airplane banner. So now you know.
"I read all about it on http://whogivesacrap.biz ." –Sue
"I'm pretty sure she just stole my comforter." "Bitch took my pillow." –Rachel and Kurt about Santana
Ryder is totally getting Catfished by Kitty, yes? What will Brody's next move be? Is Finn headed to college in New York to get a teaching certificate? What did you think of Ryder and Unique's fight? Is Jane Lynch coming for Nicki Minaj? Was anyone else briefly afraid Marley and Finn were going to kiss? How much hair gel, on average, is Darren Criss using in one day of shooting Glee? I can only hope that Brittany's absence is because she's answering all these questions for a Very Special Episode of Fondue for Two.

Why Psychology?
"I love people, and I found Psychology to be incredibly interesting and helpful in understanding people and relationships. It was an immensely engaging topic and there was never a dull moment in any of the psych courses I took at SMCM. In law school I've found my psychology background to be easily transferable to the legal field. It provides a wonderful background in understanding the reasoning and actions of individuals in the criminal cases for example. And it gives a different perspective and view than my classmates who do not have a social science background."
- Esther Adetunji '08
Overview of the Psychology Major
download program brochure
The general objective of the psychology major is to enhance understanding of behavior and mental processes and to examine their connections to the fields of biology and the social sciences. This general objective is translated into specific objectives that concern the understanding of
- scientific methodology,
- the current state of psychological knowledge, and
- the application of both methodology and knowledge to real-world problems and events.
The psychology major consists of five components. First, a required core of courses introduces students to the field and to communication skills within the field. This core includes required methodology courses in writing, library research, statistics, and experimental design. Second, a required core of lower-division courses provides students with exposure to the key subdisciplines of psychology. Third is a set of upper-division laboratory courses that represent psychology's close alliance with both social science and natural-science approaches to the study of behavior. Fourth, psychology majors select an upper-division course from a group of elective offerings. Fifth, every psychology major must complete a senior capstone experience.
Use the links to the left to explore our degree requirements, courses, and our departmental mission statement. For high school students who may be researching psychology programs at various colleges, we created a page just for you that provides our program highlights. For students interested in transferring to St. Mary's, we created a guide to help you know which courses at your previous institution will help you complete our major requirements.

Improvement expected for second part of year
The National Association of Realtors® says the next few months could bring a modest gain in home sales. The group also says that an improvement is forecast for the second part of the year, as more consumers are able to tap into affordable mortgages.
NAR reports that the Pending Home Sales Index, based on contracts signed in April, increased 6.3 percent to 88.2 percent, compared to 83 in March.
Pending sales contracts are increasing in places where prices are dropping significantly, said Lawrence Yun, chief economist at NAR.
"Bargain hunters have entered the market en masse, especially in areas that have experienced double-digit price declines, but it's unclear if they are investors or owner-occupants," Yun said. "Sharp price reductions are leading to a quicker discovery of price equilibrium points. The West is already seeing year-over-year gains in pending contracts."
Yun said mortgage interest rates will increase steadily, but still remain historically favorable, NAR reports. Mortgage company Freddie Mac said that 30-year fixed-rate mortgages this week averaged 6.32 percent, the Associated Press reports.

Men's College Volleyball: Nate Royer shines as St. Ambrose defeats Cardinal Stritch at Lincoln-Way East
By Tim O'Brien For Sun-Times Media January 21, 2014 9:12PM
Updated: February 23, 2014 6:32AM
The volleyball record board that hangs over the court at Lincoln-Way East has Nate Royer's name all over it.
Royer, a 2012 grad and East's all-time match, season and career leader in kills, got his shot Tuesday night to slam home a few more kills, this time for his college team, St. Ambrose.
Royer's 12 kills helped St. Ambrose to a 25-22, 25-22, 25-12 win over Cardinal Stritch in a NAIA nonconference match in Frankfort.
"It was really nice to come back and play," Royer said. "We thought it might be weird to come back, but we were looking forward to it all week. It showed in how we played."
Ryan Mahl's 17 kills led St. Ambrose (3-0), with Nick Lynch dishing out 39 assists for the Fighting Bees. George Langheld, a 2010 East grad, finished with seven kills, including the match-winner.
"There was a little more adrenaline than a normal away match on a Tuesday," Langheld said with a smile. "It definitely helped us get pumped up."
That pumped-up mentality worked the wrong way for the Fighting Bees in the second set, with Stritch going ahead 5-0 after of three huge blocks at the net.
"Things go wrong every once in a while," Royer said. "We had to take a deep breath, get a good pass and get the ball in transition."
Royer helped turn it around. The sophomore outside scored St. Ambrose's first point, then added a big block and floated a kill past the defense as part of a 5-1 spurt. A Mahl kill capped a 6-0 run later for the Bees, who went ahead 15-11.
Mahl continued his assault on Stritch (1-1) in the third set, powering six kills.
"We talked about it at a team meeting, how good it would feel to whoop a good team, beat them bad," Mahl said. "That was the attitude we had, coming out knowing we're better and showing it."
As for the potential of the college match on a high school court becoming an annual thing in the south suburbs, St. Ambrose coach Bill Gleeson, a Brother Rice grad, is more than up for it.
"This would be a great event on a yearly basis," Gleeson said. "A volleyball-rich community like this, it's great for them to come out and see what the next level is like. I'm just happy we came out on the winning side."

User reviews on Regal Arbor Cinema 8 at Great Hills
This is one great movie. The first 20 minutes of adults talking in front of teens was so stupid I wanted to leave, then the movie moved on to greatness. Difficult to show influence and growth in 90 minutes but this films does it in believable ways. In the theater or later on video makes little difference. You won't forget this movie quickly in either case. The last few minutes of the film were perfect.
The behavior of adults around teens depicted is probably fairly common and off putting (I see too much of myself!) It's a good reminder to behave with more sincerity instead of yacking to impress. Don't miss this film - it is much more than a coming of age film. This teen finds himself in short order and it is a pleasure to behold.
this theatre is a great one. great location. great selection of movies, which range from serious doc**entaries to fun artsy ones, to small budget films. . . the ones you cannot find elsewhere are always at the arbor. and there is great parking. good restaurants are close by which makes it an easy night out-

The 2009 conference brochure describes the 20 breakout workshops, three plenary sessions and more.
2007 Poverty & Policy Conference
It's inspiring to know that nearly 400 Alabamians are willing to brave icy winds to spend a day envisioning a fairer Alabama! On Feb. 15, 2007, the second Poverty & Policy Conference filled Birmingham-Southern's Norton Campus Center with civic and church leaders, community advocates, educators, students, social workers and other hardy souls from around the state. This year's conference theme, "Let Justice Roll," echoed throughout the day in keynote addresses by Chief Justice Sue Bell Cobb, Anniston Star editor Bob Davis, and Birmingham Civil Rights Institute co-founded Odessa Woolfolk. Three breakout sessions offered a total of 24 workshops on topics ranging from Medicaid reform to affordable housing to environmental justice.
The 2007 conference brochure gives program details.

Noel Biderman, the man behind the wildly successful AshleyMadison.com, is helping to facilitate extra-marital affairs. Microsoft, Google, and Facebook want no part of it. Crying censorship, Biderman is fighting back.
Noel Biderman is infamous for owning the site that helps married people have affairs, AshleyMadison.com. But he doesn't publicize the fact that he also owns six other niche dating sites--CougarLife.com, which hooks older women up with younger guys; ManCrunch.com, which pairs gay men; Swappernet.com, which matches swingers; and others--for fear that the sites will suffer in the pall of Ashley Madison controversy. Last week BusinessWeek's cover story, "Cheating, Incorporated," covered the wild success of Ashley Madison as well as the lengths to which Biderman goes to defend his site. But lately, Biderman has been fighting a battle on several fronts, trying to protect his other properties' ability to advertise as Ashley Madison ads are systematically yanked off TV and the Web.
"The Facebooks of the world feel the need to be these bastions of morality. I just find it hard to believe we want them making decisions for us."
Since Biderman, 39, took out a billboard in Beverly Hills advertising the cheating site in 2007, he's become both a de facto expert on infidelity and a scapegoat for failed marriages. And getting lambasted in public is only good for business: When Sean Hannity attacked him on-air last spring, Ashley Madison received 20,000 hits per second and nearly crashed. Because of his site's impressive growth--Ashley Madison has 8.5 million members and at least 12 million monthly visitors, making it, Biderman believes, the fastest growing social network after Facebook--Biderman was content to just accept that people hated him. But then media giants like Facebook, Google, ABC and Fox went after his businesses, refusing his ads, pulling his Super Bowl commercials and even blocking Facebook messages containing "AshleyMadison.com."
Biderman and his wife, who have two young children and live in Biderman's hometown of Toronto, believe they have been unfairly vilified (the BusinessWeek story described Biderman as "possibly evil"). Now they are done biting their tongues: They are sick of people making assumptions about their personal sex life, they are sick of getting hate mail, and they are especially worried about what they see as a growing censorship crisis in the U.S. "People think that if they eradicate Ashley Madison, they'll eradicate infidelity," Biderman says. "Companies like Google and Microsoft are playing Big Brother and they're not telling you what you're doing. It's almost like, if Noel touched it, they censor it."
It started at the company's inception in 2002: TV networks balked at his business concept when Biderman tried to buy ad spots. Still, Ashley Madison ads were permitted opposite programs like Jerry Springer and on ESPN. Then in 2007, Microsoft's MSN.com stopped letting Ashley Madison advertise and buy keywords, which it had done since 2002. Bing, which is also owned by Microsoft, followed the same policy. MSN and Bing won't even let Biderman buy the words "Ashley Madison," which Biderman trademarked. "If you type in the world 'infidelity' on Bing but Bing pretends that Ashley Madison doesn't exist, they're redefining the word," Biderman says. He says that MSN told him it was a "policy of one: my company and my company alone." Other cheating sites began buying the same keywords on MSN and Bing and using Ashley Madison's tagline: "Life is short. Have an affair." Biderman complained to Microsoft, but the company continued selling ads and keywords to the competing sites. There was nothing Biderman could do. On March 3, Microsoft will officially change its trademark policy, further reducing Biderman's negotiating power. "It will continue to investigate complaints about trademarks in advertising text but will no longer investigate complaints about trademarks used as keywords on Bing and Yahoo! Search," a Microsoft spokesperson said.
The other media giants followed Microsoft's lead. In 2009, ESPN stopped running Ashley Madison ads, which it had aired since 2002. When ABC premiered the show Cougar Town starring Courtney Cox, Biderman pushed to advertise CougarLife.com but ABC refused. Then NBC asked Ashley Madison if it would be interested in creating a commercial to run during the 2009 Super Bowl. Ashley Madison hesitated--it was a big investment that would be wasted if the company encountered more obstacles--but eventually made the ad. Before the big game, the NFL refused to air the expensive commercial. Instead, it ran locally on NBC in certain parts of Texas.
So last year, when CBS had broadcast rights to the Super Bowl and Biderman was preparing to launch his new dating service for gay men, ManCrunch.com, he had another choice to make. "I knew there was zero chance that CBS was going to accept an ad for a same-sex dating site," Biderman says. Man Crunch wasn't even live yet, but Biderman saw another publicity opportunity: "We thought, 'Let's just do one of these ads that we know will get rejected,'" he says. They shot the whole commercial in 25 minutes. When CBS refused it, Biderman's company posted it all over YouTube and the Web, tagging it as the "banned Super Bowl commercial." When Fox, which aired the Super Bowl this year, approached Ashley Madison about creating an ad for the 2011 game, Biderman knew there was little chance it would air. Still, the company created the commercial, which Biderman calls "very tame." When it was rejected, Ashley Madison used the same surefire marketing strategy, posting the "banned" ad all over the Internet.
Last fall, Facebook, which Biderman already paid $300,000 to advertise Cougar Life, told Biderman it would no longer run his ads. A spokesperson for Facebook says it does not have a "broad ban on 'cougar' ads but dating ads have specific targeting restrictions and cannot be "overtly provocative or sexual." Facebook has never accepted Ashley Madison ads. Still, Biderman takes particular issue with Facebook because he feels that the company is hypocritical, refusing his ads while enabling "sexual dalliances" in the same way for which Ashley Madison is criticized. But Biderman refutes one contention in BusinessWeek's story: "I'm not obsessed with Facebook," he says. He was angry, however, to discover recently that Facebook messages containing the URL AshleyMadison.com were blocked, immediately presenting users with an error message below. Facebook says it temporarily blocked messages containing AshleyMadison.com because the URL was distributed in a spam campaign on the site, although it would not confirm whether the company had been involved. Messages containing the address were blocked as of Monday afternoon but re-enabled the following night after this reporter contacted Facebook for comment.
