[MA in Literature] - [MFA in Writing] - [MA in Language and Linguistics] - [PhD in Literature] - [PhD in Composition Studies] - [Past students]
MA in Literature
Lava Asaad
I am Lava Asaad. I was born in a small city in Syria, Hasaka, 1989. I moved with my family to the capital, Damascus, to pursue my study in Damascus University, Department of English Literature. I did a post-graduate course after my graduation for one year. I focused through it on African American Fiction. Nevertheless, I like to study all genres in English Literature. I applied for Fulbright and got the grant to study at UNH.
Since I belong to an ethnic group, the Kurds, I am hoping that I can blend my Arabic and Kurdish origins into the American culture and literature and vice versa.
I am hoping to earn my MA thesis and with a huge interest to proceed with PhD. This will give me the opportunity to be an Associate Professor at Damascus University.
Jason Andreason
Jason Andreason is an MA Lit student and Teaching Assistant. He earned his BA in Literary Criticism from UMass Dartmouth in May 2012 and also minored in Asian History while he was there. During his junior and senior years, he completed an undergraduate thesis entitled "The Graphic Narrative As Literature." Jason's main area of interest is American Literature, particularly American ghost stories and the like. He enjoys practicing Shotokan Karate, collecting comic books, and, of course, reading.
Colette Bazylinski
Colette is a first-year MA student in literature. After attending St. John's University in Queens, NY for two years, she transferred to Merrimack College where she earned her BA in English. She has spent the past few years working at EBSCO Publishing in Ipswich, MA and has recently moved back to her home state of Maine with her very large cat. Her research interests are wide and varied but are mainly focused now on Charlotte Bronte's life and work. Outside of her academic pursuits, she enjoys baking and embroidery. She tries hard to resist buying books and movies (she has a particular weakness for expensive foreign films) but is often unsuccessful.
Emma Burris-Janssen
Emma Burris-Janssen is overjoyed to be living in temperate New England after a childhood spent on the barren tundra of landlocked Nebraska. For the last few years, Emma has been working as a sexual and domestic violence counselor in Pennsylvania and is looking forward to her first year as an MA student in Literature at UNH.
Emily Dolive
Emily Dolive is a first-year M.A. in Literature student and TA. Hailing from far-away Longview, Texas, her undergraduate work was completed at Baylor University which was the perfect ground to help cultivate her interests. Between outstanding professors and working at Armstrong Browning Library, Emily's passion for the study of literature, and poetry in particular, grew immensely. One British Literature class was all it took for her to be certain that British Romantic poetry was the path for her. While studying abroad in England, she set out to find the "green and pleasant land" Blake speaks of as well as the home of John Keats, her favorite. She is looking forward to snow, finally experiencing graduate school, crafting her thesis, and meeting new colleagues and professors.
Meaghan Elliott
Raised by crazy Canadians, Meaghan hails from Ann Arbor, Michigan (GO BLUE!) and holds a BA in creative writing and theatre from Hope College in Holland, Michigan, after which she spent 18 months as a preschool teacher in Ann Arbor before going on to an MFA in creative writing for poetry at the University of Wyoming. It was there in Laramie that she learned to be somewhat "outdoorsy," spending extensive hours hiking and being generally Wordsworthian about nature in the Rockies. Following her MFA, she travelled for one year in China, teaching English in Hangzhou and Beijing, learning just enough Mandarin to argue with cab drivers. Upon returning from China, Meaghan moved to the Washington, D.C. area for six months to continue working on her poetry. After living amongst the consortium of universities in the capital, she then decided to return to Ann Arbor and take courses at the University of Michigan in order to gear up for her MA in literature at the University of New Hampshire. This will be her second year of the MA program, after having spent a remarkable summer term participating in the UNH Cambridge courses in England. She hopes to continue on to the doctoral level after her MA. Hopefully, by then she will have made her mind up about which period of poetry to focus on. For now, however, she's enjoying every era of verse.
Molly Hall
I'm a first year MA Lit student, originally from Somerville, MA, but living in NH since 2008. I graduated from UMASS Boston with my BA in English and later got a M.Ed. Despite my passion for literature and academia, my jobs have always been in food service. I have spent the last 12 years doing pretty much everything that can be done in the industry. Having had no luck acquiring a high school English teaching position in NH, I took a job last year working for Tidewater Catering Group in Manchester as a Café Manager, Catering Sous Chef, and Event Supervisor. I am excited by the idea of teaching on both the high school and university levels one day, but for now my focus is on achieving the latter. I am very interested in literary theory, specifically Ecocriticism (which was the focus of my undergraduate capstone as well as my thesis for my M.Ed.). I also dabble in Ecofeminism, Animal Studies (a logic choice for a vegan, I suppose), and Deconstruction (I know it's passé but I just can't help myself).
Michael Haselton
Michael Haselton is a first-year MA Lit student from Goffstown, NH. After starting his academic career at St. Michael's College in 2004 he finally graduated from UNH with a B.A. in English in 2012. He spent the years between programs working several jobs, including a lengthy stint at a doggie daycare in Williston, VT and several years for the Star Island Corporation in Portsmouth, NH. Michael spends his summers in York Beach, Maine with his cat, Satan. When he's not reading about Milton, eighteenth-century English literature, or meals in novels, he can be found in the kitchen, lost in a new cookbook, or at a local wine shop searching for that perfect-yet-inexpensive bottle of red.
Brittany Hoxie
Brittany Hoxie is a first-year MA student in Literature. She has two degrees, one in English Literature and the other in Sociology from Suffolk University in Boston. She originally went to Emerson College for their Writing, Literature and Publishing program, but could no longer justify attending the Hipster Olympics for forty thousand dollars a year. She will generally read whatever you put in front of her, and having grown up without being allowed to watch much, if any television, she is not in the habit of doing so now. British Romanticism is her niche, but she is excited to engage other fields of literature. She finds writing short biographies with sparse credentials mildly frustrating. She hopes you will understand.
Courtney Nelson
Courtney Nelson is a first year MA in literature student from St. Paul, MN. She received her BA in English Language, Literature, and Culture and completed a minor in Linguistics at the University of Minnesota, Duluth. During her senior year, she did research for the Linguistics Department on the word like as well as taught a freshman-level Gothic Literature Course as a Teaching Assistant. After she earns her MA, she plans on pursuing a Ph.D focusing on the Post 9/11 Bestseller. Spending time in Milan, Italy fueled her love of traveling, fashion, good coffee, and of course, gelato. Outside of school, she enjoys watching movies, rocking out to bad music with her sister, and playing with her cat, Leah. Sadly, Leah had to stay in Minnesota, but Courtney calls home frequently to make sure that her 10 year old brother is taking care of her. She has a weakness for shoes, and consequently, has more than she will ever know what to do with.
Kristin Raymond
Kristin is a part-time MA Literature student and an ESL Lecturer. She has a BA in English and French Literature and a MA TESOL from Saint Michael's College. She is interested in sociolinguistics in literature.

She was home-grown by hippies in the foothills of Southern California, and earned her BA in English Language and Literature at Central Washington University. Shakespeare is her main dude, but Allison has been known to dally with a Modernist or two. She is ridiculously proud of her cats (a fearsome sight to behold), and they are bound to come up in conversation— clearly. Allison loves Bob Dylan, is an unabashed Anglophile, and likes to think she can paint. But mostly she just reads and writes. A lot.
Ryan Sherwood
Ryan Sherwood is a first-year M.A. student in Literature. An impassioned New Englander and stereotypical English major, Ryan has spent the past two years in Nashua, New Hampshire, making rent with a series of temp jobs and reading copious amounts of Philip Roth. He plans to spend his life publishing volume after volume of comprehensive cultural criticism, operating at the nexus of literature, film, and popular music studies (like his academic idol, Greil Marcus). Of special interest to him are the novels of Richard Yates, the New York School of poetry, film noir, and the music of the Velvet Underground. He got into this program with a paper on John Cheever, and he thinks it's a shame that John Updike is currently out of vogue.
MFA in Writing
Ivan Ang
Ivan Ang was born in Singapore and is currently a first-year student MFA student in Fiction. He earned his BA in English Literature from the National University of Singapore and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He is addicted to traveling and lists visiting the necropolis at Ceveteri, Italy as the most memorable visit of all. The necropolis inspired him to write a photo-essay which was published in a Singapore literary journal, Ceriph. The photo-essay, along with his other published fiction, eventually won him a scholarship awarded by the National Arts Council of Singapore. In addition to writing fiction, he hopes to write about his travels to Israel which he visited in 2011. When not traveling, reading and writing, he is hitting the weights at the gym.

Alicia de los Reyes
Alicia grew up in NJ but always wanted to live in NH. She graduated from Swarthmore College in '08. She's a second-year nonfiction MFA student currently writing about crafts in the US and travel outside of it. Non-writing interests include running, hiking, knitting, and baking cookies.
Janet Falvey
T.S. Eliot reminds that the journey brings us back where we started, now knowing that place for the first time. My journey started with songs and poems of the ages, rendered by heart in my father's deep baritone voice. Overlaid over the years with voices of reason, of anger, of yearning, my path has always tangled with words. As a photojournalist, therapist and educator, my attention was drawn to the words of others, my own voice muted, words constrained by theory and science and editorial policy. I did well in those fields, remain a tenured professor widely published in the literature of counseling psychology. But something was always missing. Witness to generations of voices coming from the heart and soul of others, I have at last circled back to my father's side with stories and poems of my own. And a young girl's spirit that soars on the beauty of words.
Aaron Gerber
Aaron grew up in a coastal town in Maine, and later studied creative writing, music and visual arts at Hampshire College . After graduation, Aaron moved to Portland Oregon where he lived for five years focusing primarily on songwriting and music performance.

Lindsey Greene
Lindsey was raised by a corporate dude/drummer and a massage therapist/artist in Sandy Hook, CT and is a second-year MFA in fiction student. She harbors an irrational fear of moths and butterflies. However, she loves yoga and singing in the shower. She's recently started growing flowers on her windowsill, and there's a very good chance that you'll hear her talking about her cat at some point. She also feels strange talking about herself in the third person.
Katie Hogan
Katie Hogan was homeschooled in a haunted 1840s farmhouse in upstate New York, where she developed a reliance on books early in life as an excuse to avoid math assignments and to keep the lights on at night. At 15, she enrolled at a community college, where a workshop tutorial in poetic meter sparked her interest in poetry. She completed a BA in English with a concentration in Creative Writing and Global Culture at Binghamton University in 2011, and has spent the past year working as a writing consultant and tutoring English at a community college in upstate NY. In the past, she has been an Irish dance instructor, a competitive archer, and an amateur potter. She has no definite plans for the future. At present, she lives in Somersworth, NH with her cat, Bellatrix. Outside of poetry, she enjoys reading about buddhist philosophy, wandering around antique stores, blogging, and drinking overpriced coffee. This is her first year in the MFA program at UNH.
Willa Johann

Alex Ledford
Alex Ledford is a first year poetry MFA who has tried to quit smoking since she started. Though it is not apparent in her work, her two favorite poets-du-jour are Etheridge Knight and Wallace Stevens, and she will always harbor the greatest fondness for Elizabeth Bishop and Pablo Neruda. She just graduated from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro with a Bachelor's in English and is grateful to her two fantastic poet mentors and friends, David Roderick and Stuart Dischell, for the guidance and expertise with which they have steered her. The farthest north she has been in the United States to date is Stamford, Connecticut, so this will definitely be an adventure. Her interests other than poetry include but are not limited to film, visual art, theatre, music of any genre, fashion, philosophy, tennis, beer, and the culinary arts. She hopes her strange accent provides a source of amusement.
Jesse Mack

Lisa Meerts-Brandsma
Lisa Meerts is a second-year MFA nonfiction student. But really, she is a cycling machine who loves anything bike-related. So if you want her to commit to something, throw in two wheels, and she's there. Or throw in the wilderness because she is also a reformed backpacking guide who accepted that her wardrobe should contain more than Chacos, Carhartts and Capilene. She has also come to terms with the fact that the Seacoast is a swamp compared to her beloved, dry, dusty Colorado and has developed a passion for all things watery (sea kayaking, whitewater kayaking, surfing). Sometimes, when she is tired, she remembers that she is also a writer and teacher of writing.
Kayleigh Merritt
Kayleigh is a second-year MFA student in fiction. Originally from small-town NH, she moved to Salem, MA, for undergrad and earned a BA in English from Salem State in 2008.

Sarah Terry
Sarah Terry is a first year poetry MFA student, and a nearly twenty-third year human. She comes originally from New Jersey, and has spent the last four years living in New York City while getting her BA in creative writing at Columbia University. Her poetry is strongly influenced by her love of science fiction, music and obscure rhyming words. When not writing, she is singing her way through German operas and the Kurt Weill songbook, stargazing, baking TARDIS cakes, playing piano, pretending she can play violin, and dressing up in costumes whenever possible. She has a mini dachshund named Annabel Lee, who couldn't make the trip up to New Hampshire, but is being trained to play fetch over Skype.
Michael Thompson

Before that, he grew up on a mountain in Maine, where he often returns to bake pies, pickle things, grow food for his family and friends, and write long sentences, all in the company of his peculiarly tall springer spaniel, Scout.
Jonathan Vesey
Jonathan Vesey is a student in the Poetry MFA program, transplanted from his life and schooling in Cleveland, Ohio. He was born there into a suburban lifestyle before doing his undergraduate work at Case Western Reserve University closeby, studying English and Cognitive Science. He predominantly focused on writing poetry and cognitive linguistics. Having had a 5 year college radio show, he's a fervent devourer of music of all sorts, though predominantly metal. Since graduating from CWRU in 2009, he had been making paltry amounts of money cleaning and stocking at a department store so that he could save up for graduate school. Now, as a TA and all around charismatic gentleman, he might just have enough momentum on his side to live a decent life.
Rose Whitmore
Rose Whitmore hails from San Francisco where she was an All-American rugby player, immunology researcher, and amateur smelt fisherman.

She is a second year MFA fiction student and an editor of Barnstorm.
MA in Language and Linguistics
Marino Fernandes
Marino is a proud, and, slightly incredulous, graduate of Bridgewater State College in Bridgewater, MA. He graduated with a BA in Philosophy, which makes getting an MA in Linguistics look like he is becoming an accountant. His family is very proud that he will eventually (hopefully) become a doctor, though they aren't sure how Linguistics will help with their acid reflux. Marino grew up in Brockton, MA but was born in Portugal and spent sometime living in Cape Verde. He moved to the United States with his family when he was 14. Marino has spent the last two years teaching ESL in Boston. He is interested in studying the profile of diverse kinds of second language learners and thinking about the implications of this in theories of L2 acquisition as well as in the ESL classroom . Marino also enjoys playing djembe and balafon (both instruments from the African nation of Mali). You can catch Marino drumming in the centerfold of the August 2010 issue of ever-popular Science News where he enjoyed the shortest modeling career on record.

Kim Dougherty
Hi, I'm Kim Dougherty. I made it to my fourth-year as a Ph.D. lit student through much trial and error and I'm looking forward to beginning my dissertation "'Of the sky above you must beware': Airpower, Airspace, and Biopolitics in Twentieth Century Literature."

He received a BA in English from St. Mary's College of Maryland, and an MA in Composition & Rhetoric from Salisbury University. He just moved to New Hampshire, so if you see someone looking lost and shivering in the cold climate, come over and say hi. His academic interests are varied, and include digital writing practices, epistolary studies, History of Rhetoric (especially, but not exclusively, the medieval stuff), and Writing Centers. Someday he will focus those interests enough to write a dissertation. He also likes to cook, write (obviously), drink craft beers, run, and visit the beach.

Maja Wilson
Maja Wilson is a PhD student in composition studies. She has worked in Michigan's public school system for 10 years, teaching high school english, alternative education, adult basic education, and ESL. She is interested in examining how assessment policy either undermines or supports our goals and values as educators and citizens, and in finding ways to develop teacher agency in institutions designed to thwart it. Her published works – including Rethinking Rubrics in Writing Assessment, published by Heinemann in 2006 and recipient of NCTE's 2007 James Britton award – began with a feeling of frustration. When she is particularly caffeinated, she has grand delusions of being Obama's education advisor. She enjoys reading and swimming with her two sons, gardening, and taking long walks in the fall.

Security is critical to web services. However, neither the XML-RPC nor SOAP specifications make any explicit security or authentication requirements.
There are three specific security issues with Web Services:
Network Security
If a client sends an XML request to a server, then question is that can we ensure that the communication remains confidential?
Answer lies here
XML-RPC and SOAP run primariy on top of HTTP.
HTTP has support for Secure Socktes Layer (SSL).
Communication can be encrypted via the SSL.
SSL is a proven technology and widely deployed.
But a single web service may consist of a chain of applications. For example one large service might tie together the services of three other applications. In this case, SSL is not adequate; the messages need to be encrypted at each node along the service path, and each node represents a potential weak link in the chain. Currently, there is no agreed-upon solution to this issue, but one promising solution is the W3C XML Encryption Standard. This standard provides a framework for encrypting and decrypting entire XML documents or just portions of an XML document. Check it at http://www.w3.org/Encryption
If a client connects to a web service, how do we identify the user? And is the user authorized to use the service?
Following options can be considered but there is no clear consensus on a strong authentication scheme.
HTTP includes built-in support for Basic and Digest authentication, and services can therefore be protected in much the same manner as HTML documents are currently protected.
SOAP Security Extensions: Digital Signature (SOAP-DSIG). DSIG leverages public key cryptography to digitally sign SOAP messages. This enables the client or server to validate the identity of the other party. Check it at http://www.w3.org/TR/SOAP-dsig.
The Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) is working on the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML).
There is currently no easy answer to this problem, and it has been the subject of much debate. For now, if you are truly intent on filtering out SOAP or XML-RPC messages, one possibility is to filter out all HTTP POST requests that set their content type to text/xml.
Another alternative is to filter for the SOAPAction HTTP header attribute. Firewall vendors are also currently developing tools explicitly designed to filter web service traffic.

New Jersey growers endured a cold, wet start to the spring, but it could have been a lot worse.
"We didn't have the heavy rains and severe weather a lot of the country had," said Bill Nardelli, president of Cedarville, N.J.-based Nardelli Bros. Inc. "We were very fortunate."
Damage also was limited, Nardelli said, by the fact that many plants are transplanted from greenhouses.
"They don't take the beating" they used to, when they began life in the open field, Nardelli said.
Nardelli Bros. began harvesting parsley, beets, leeks, greens, lettuces, cabbage and other wet vegetables in April, Nardelli said.
Squash, cucumbers and other dry vegetables were set to begin shipping in late May, he said.
Also, with cooler weather, crops grow more slowly, which is generally good for quality, Nardelli said.
This spring has turned out to be almost ideal for Fresh Wave Fruit & Produce, Vineland, N.J., said company vice president Nick Giordano.
"Our deals are right on time, the weather's cooperated, the rain came when we needed it and the quality is excellent," Giordano said.
Fresh Wave began shipping Jersey-grown romaine and leaf lettuces, parsley and cilantro on May 1, and by the middle of the month volumes were in full swing, Giordano said.
Iceberg lettuce is the only commodity Eastern Fresh Growers Inc., Cedarville, N.J., expects to grow more of in 2011, said Tom Sheppard, the company's president.
Volumes of all of the company's other commodities should be similar to last year, he said.
The company expects to double its iceberg production, but the percentage increase is misleading, Sheppard said. Instead of growing 15 acres, Eastern Fresh will now grow 30.
Thirty years ago, there were thousands of acres of iceberg grown in New Jersey, Sheppard said. Then romaine, red and green leaf, boston and other lettuces took over, and Eastern Fresh was left as the only local grower of iceberg.
Growing weather for iceberg, romaine and all other lettuces grown by Eastern Fresh has been excellent this season, Sheppard said.
"Days in the 70s and nights in the 50s are ideal for lettuce," he said. "We'd rather see 70 than 90. We may be a couple of days late, but there should be real good quality."
Sheppard said his company began its vegetable season with asparagus in mid-spring, and expects to wind the deal down about the first week of June.
Romaine followed at the end of the week of May 16 and was expected to ship through June, Sheppard said.
Eastern Fresh will likely begin shipping squash about June 10, cucumbers about June 20 and peppers about July 15, Sheppard said. The company expects to have all three commodities available throughout the summer.
Peppers were planted a bit late because of the heavy rains early in the growing season, but good growing weather in early May was helping crops get caught up.
And Sheppard said when it comes to the weather, it's all relative.
"When you see the conditions in other parts of the country, we're happy with what we've gotten," he said.
More and more New Jersey vegetable growers are extending the season by growing under row covers, said Ben Casella, field representative for the New Jersey Farm Bureau, Trenton.
It's common to see commodities like squash and cucumbers grown under cover in the Garden State, Casella said.
Now, however, more growers are trying to grow tomatoes under cover, too, he said.
"It's pretty labor-intensive and expensive, but growers see the benefits," he said.
"It's not only the heat, but protection from the wind."

I was snowed on, hailed on and rained on - like Noah's flood - all in the space of 3 hours today. Crazy. Cars and rooftops in west central Phoenix were white with accumulated snow/hail. The MOTH sent a pic from Tucson of drifting snow around houses there. What's not to believe about climate change?! |

Agreed. Scientists tell us this area was once under an imense glacier. The climate has changed quite a bit since then. |
Yep. The climate is always changing and has been for thousands of years. Parts of the world that where lush and green are now deserts or covered in ice. |
Exxxxactly. 'Climate change' may be the new terminology for what we have *been* calling 'evolution'. ;-) |
- Posted by fabaceae_native (My Page) on Thu, Feb 21, 13 at 11:01
Centurion, you are right about the climate having changed a great deal over long periods of time, but you're off with that bit about a giant glacier... Western North America all the way up into Alaska was NOT under glaciers during the last ice age, only alpine areas had these features (similar to what you now see in Glacier National Park in Montana). Eastern North America was different, however, with a large continental ice sheet akin to what now covers Greenland. |
Last night it snowed here in East Mesa, Stayed on our cars for a few hours. Local temps were in the low 30's. Yet the national weather service says we had a low temp of 40 degrees. They show much lower temps as the current temp and then post much higher temps as the recorded low on a daily basis. |
Thisisme, you are so right about the temps. I thought all my temp gauges were off. I consistently show different temps too. As for climate change, I certainly hope we get colder in the valley. Can't stand the 100's in the spring, summer and fall. Enjoy the coolness while we have it. |

It's only going to get hotter and drier here. All you deniers can go argue with the scientists. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Drier - and hotter
I got to get in on this one! It has been pretty cold the last three days, up until then it was pretty nice. The apricot tree and plum was starting to really bud due to the warmth which was way too early, hopefully the snow and cold will keep them at bay. We didn't get any snow till about 4:30 pm(just rain) then it hit like no ones business. It came down in big old flakes and didnt stop. The neighborhood kids were out making snowmen. We have never had snow this late in the season, never! I started my veggie seedlings which are on top of the refer trying to stay warm, prior to this weather I was able to put them in the warm sun. hope they make it or the garden will be late. As for the temps being off, have any of you noticed on your electric bill ,were it states the avg temp for the month? I don't know where they get that info, (summer or winter) but I swear it must be from another state. Avg temp for Aug 75 d. yeh right! |
All the proponents of Man Made Global Climate Change were discredited in Climate Gate One and Climate Gate Two. All the leading Climate Scientists spoke openly about faking the whole thing. There is little need to argue about. They admitted it. If it weren't for there being so much money to be gained for scientists who are proponents of MMGCC it would be laughed out of academia. Even so they propose spending more than 500 TRILLION DOLLARS to fix it while their own figures show it would only affect temperature by a few tenths of one degree. The reason for that is that man has so little influence over our constantly changing climate. Sure it may get hotter and it may get colder but the Sun and the Earths Oceans and Volcano's and the Earths orbit and tilting axis have so much more influence on climate change that man is only along for the ride. |
This reminds me of March '06. We attended a wedding in Cave Creek in weather that was freezing cold, and it snowed that day. |

From the article below: "So, what do we have? On one side, we have scientists kicking around ideas, criticizing each other, disagreeing, getting angry, and changing their views as new information comes to light �" all in a valiant effort to create a massive document summarizing complex scientific issues on which there is broad consensus but disagreement on minor issues. The areas of disagreement, by the way, are on the degree to which man is causing the climate to change �" not on whether it's happening or whether man is the cause. On the other side of the debate, we have a massive denial machine intent on distorting anything that doesn't fit their worldview �" a Borg-like monstrosity that believes everyone who disagrees with them is just as dogmatic and closed-minded as they are." As a now-and-then, not-even-good gardener, I enjoy the science of it all. Like what a seed is made of, the why - and the how - it germinates. But then, maybe some little garden fairy flits by and sprinkles some magic dust over it. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Climategate? Not really.
No, I don't think so. One the one side you have all of academia being paid to promote the idea of man made global warming. While on the other side you have a small number of people who are refusing to accept the crap they are shoveling who are not getting paid a single cent for standing up to them. By the way I can post plenty of links too. Just because someone who is getting paid to say something say it does not mean that its true. |

^ That is an absurd characterization --> If you disagree with me, you must be corrupt/paid to lie. Really?? Many/most of the climatologists arguing pro-anthropomorphic climate change (and that would be the vast majority) are academics of some manner, while a substantial percentage of the relatively small number of skeptics are industrial consultants. I don't care who is right, radical climate change is upon us, and it would behoove us all to become far better stewards of our planet. |

In the 70's it was "our earth is cooling and we are heading for another ice age." In the 90's it became "Global Warming." Now it's called "climate change." (Gotta hand it to em...this new term has both bases covered). And now they're also calling it "settled science" to squelch opposing views. Meanwhile Al Gore and his cronies are flying all over the world in private jets reaping hundreds of millions of dollars convincing governments to invest hundreds of Billions of dollars on largely unproven "green energy" projects which have to be heavily subsidized to appear effective. This would be funny if it weren't so tragic. |
By the way. I have heard and read of climatologists being fired for not espousing MMGCC. I HAVE HEARD THEM SAY "There are no governmental grants/no funding for anyone who does not promote MMGCC." I did not say it just to be saying it. That's what I have heard on the news. Anyone who has ever been in a lawsuit or been to court knows that opinions are bought and sold. The money goes to those who will confirm MMGCC. Those who don't, don't have jobs. Instead they blog and the news sometimes picks it up. Climate Gate one and Two are real no matter how someone spins it. When you read the emails and they openly discuss falsifying data. I don't care what anyone else says. I can read. I will believe my own eyes over any talking head no matter how they twist it. I know what "is" is. I don't need someone else to explain away the obvious. When climatologists write in their emails to each other that they are falsifying all their data. I believe them more than when they speak in public for a fee and say the data is all true. You see; I believe a person's true character is based upon what they do and say when they believe no one can see or hear them. Not by what they say when everyone is watching. From all I have ever heard the earth is still much cooler now that it has been through most of the last 10,000 years. Look at the fossil record. Massive amounts of evidence that tropical plants have grown all over the globe supporting massive mammals. Places that are far to cold now for them to live. There are parts of Africa that were lush and green during the peak of the Roman and Egyptian empires that are desert wastelands now. In fact they have been for the last 1100-1200 years. Did man cause it back then? The earth's climate has always been changing. To this day no one has been able to adequately explain to me how global climate change on earth is caused by man. While scientists say mars and all the other planets in the system have been going through the same warming trend. Yet there are no men living on any of the other planets. This all reminds of Chicken Little. "The sky is falling the sky is falling!!!" |

A quilting friend and I are both participating in a mystery row robin that does not require exchanging rows. She found a link to a row robin that has a new row added on Monday for 5 weeks. Each row so far has four 12" blocks.
We both bought fat quarter bundles of City Girl fabric by Moda in 2009. We are using this for our row robin. I am using a cream for the background and she is using white. We get together each week and compare our rows. It's fun to see how we each use the fabric and interpret the pattern. You can see my rows at the link below. Linda OH |

What a neat idea! I love your 2nd row and think your layout of the stars is much more dynamic than the example. I could see a whole quilt done in those star blocks. |

I like this idea, too. I'm a bit partial to stars, and I like your layout better. Will be interesting to see it completed. SharonG/FL |
Love the fabrics!!! This project is starting out great. Rosa |

D'Arnaud and Locke Lead Indians Over Charlotte
Indianapolis Indians 5, Charlotte Knights 3 (Box) The Indianapolis Indians had one big inning tonight at the Knights' Stadium in the suburbs of Charlotte, NC, but that one inning was all the Tribe needed for their fourth win in a row. Jeff Locke made the start for the Indians, and earned his 5th win of the season. SS Chase d'Arnaud provided the biggest piece of fire power, driving in 3 of the Indians'...
Indians' Reyes Earns 4th Win, Slaten Earns 4th Save
Indianapolis Indians 3, Norfolk Tides 1 (Box) Strong pitching and timely hitting gave the Indians their second win over the Norfolk Tides this evening at Harbor Park in Norfolk, Virginia. Jo-Jo Reyes earned his 4th win in 4 starts, and Doug Slaten took his 4th save in his last 4 opportunities. It took Reyes 90 pitches (57 strikes) to go 5 innings. He gave up only one run, and that was a 2-out solo homer by LF Jamie Hoffman...
Taillon's First Loss; Marauders And Curve Bombarded
The Power played a double-header this afternoon, and the Curve and Marauders have evening games:
Lexington Legends 4, West Virginia Power 2 Game 1
Jameson Taillon suffered his first pro loss this afternoon, as the Power were one-hit in the first game of their double-header. Taillon began by giving up a solo homer in the bottom of the 1st. Lexington scored two more in the 2nd inning with a single, a double, then an RBI ground out and an fielder's choice and throwing error by 3B Eric Avila. Taillon had to work around another fielding error, this one by 1B Matt Curry, and a single in the 3rd inning, but he kept Lexington from scoring. A single, a stolen base, and another single drove in the Legends' 4th run in the 4th inning. Taillon gave up a total of 7 hits, no walks, for 4 runs (3 earned) in his 4 innings, and he struck out 4 batters.
The Power threatened in the 2nd inning, when both RF Justin Howard and DH Jairo Marquez walked, but a double play got the Legends out of that inning. LF Andy Vasquez reached base in the 5th when he was hit by a pitch, but he was picked off first base. The Power scored their only runs in the 6th, on only one hit. 2B Kevin Mort and LF Rogelios Noris both walked to lead off the inning, then SS Drew Maggi singled to load the bases. CF Mel Rojas's grounder force out with a throwing error by the Legends' shortstop let Mort and Noris score. Curry also walked, but two strikeouts ended the inning.
Power 9, Legends 3 Game 2
Apparently the Power were saving up their hits and runs for the second game. They put up 14 hits on the way to 9 runs, while holding Lexington to just 5 hits. DH Dan Grovatt, 1B Matt Curry, and C Kawika Emsley-Pai each had 3 hits, with homers by Grovatt, Curry, and LF Rogelios Noris.
The Power jumped out to a 5-run lead in the top of the 1st. With one out, CF Mel Rojas and Grovatt singled, then Curry brought them in with his 3-run homer. Emsley-Pai singled up the middle, and Noris added his 2-run homer for a 5-0 lead.
Curry led off the 3rd with a single, and he scored from first on Emsley-Pai's double. Noris tripled, plating Emsley-Pai, and a wild pitch let Noris come across the plate. Power up 8-0. Dan Grovatt made it 9-0 with a solo home run in the top of the 4th.
Tyler Waldron made the start in Game 2. Waldron buzzed through the first two innings, retiring 6 Legends in order. He loaded the bases in the 3rd, on a walk and two singles, but got a double play to end the frame. The lead-off batter in the bottom of the 4th homered for the only run Waldron surrendered. Kevin Decker relieved Waldron to begin the 5th. He retired the side with two strikeouts and a fly out in that inning, but gave up 2 more runs in the 6th. A double, a single, and a walk loaded the bases for Lexington. A sacrifice fly brought in one run, and a throwing error by Decker allowed the second run of the inning to score. Decker also retired the side in order in the 7th, earning the win.
Marauders Start With A Rampage; Crotta Shines For Curve
Bradenton Marauders 18, �Fort Myers Miracle 3 (box)
The Marauders began their inaugural season in the Florida State League with a hit-a-thon, as they posted 16 hits on their was to 18 runs. �Two 7-run innings took care of most of the scoring and sent the Ft. Myers' pitching staff scrambling. �Each member of the Bradenton lineup except one had at least one hit, and most had two hits. �1B Calvin Anderson did not have a hit, but he walked twice and came around to score. �LF Quincy Latimore went 3-for-3 with a solo home run and two RBI singles. �RF Robbie Grossman had a 3-run homer, and 3B Jeremy Farrell contributed 7 RBI with a 3-run homer in the 7th inning and a grand slam in the 4th. �CF Starling Marte singled and doubled, walked, and scored 4 times. �C Tony Sanchez had two RBI singles.
The scoring started with Latimore's homer in the bottom of the 2nd. �Singles by Latimore and Grossman, plus an error by the Miracle and a passed ball added two more runs in the 3rd. �The 7-run 4th inning followed, as the Marauders sent 11 batters to the plate. �Grossman's homer and Farrell's grand slam, plus a wild pitch with the bases loaded accounted for those 7 runs. �Marte's double and an RBI single from Sanchez tacked on a run in the 5th. �The 7th was the second 7-run inning, as the Marauders sank the Miracle with two walks, four singles, a wild pitch that allowed a run to score, and Farrell's 3-run shot.

Hi all,
I am having s40 plattform mobile(Nokia 5610). I need a program running in the background for my mobile which will automatically invokes an application at a particular time on daily basis. Its like minimizing the current application and allowing the user to perform other tasks.
I heard like s40 plattform will not support background application.
Is it true? If so, Is there any way to run an application in background?.
In same s40 mobile, if applications like Alarm/Reminder etc are able to run in background, why cant we do the same for a new application?
Thanks in advance,

"My corn chips got a little soft by the lime juice and I didn't put all of the liquid from roasting the veges into the salsa- tomatoes give off a lot of juice themselves and the salsa was looking a little runny. Otherwise very good- will make it again & modify some seasonings when we have fresh tomatoes from our garden.""
