Holodomor: Témoignages de la gnose terrestre
31/05/12 || gk
Holodomor is a young band from the UK and this is the band's debut release. "Témoignages de la Gnose Terrestre" is some blackened death metal and with 5 songs lasting for little less than 17 minutes, it's vicious and unrelenting. "Fall into Time" opens proceedings with a somewhat sparse sounding guitar attack but the savagery of the riffs makes up for it and the song is pretty promising. "The Spell of Black Affliction" is the highlight of this EP for me with its dissonant riffs and a feel that reminds me of a blackened Order from Chaos. "Tribulation Stigmata" has a very cool middle part with some dissonant riffing backing a well-placed lead before the song goes off into a slower, more traditional black metal part. Holodomor show a lot of promise on "Témoignages de la Gnose Terrestre". The band isn't doing anything particularly new but they are doing the whole blackened death thrash thing very well.
7.5/10: Really looking forward to the album.

Benefiting the Shelby Humane Society
Give Life A Chance.
Shelby Humane Society's Shelter Partners Program, founded in November, 2006, is a volunteer driven transport program providing second chances for thousands of dogs.
The Shelter Partners program moves pets from Shelby County, which is experiencing extreme animal overpopulation, to shelters in states where the success of animal and spay and neuter initiatives limit the number of pets available for adoption. Shelby Humane works with a dedicated group of partner shelters to find new forever families for dogs being transported. With rare exception, the dogs and puppies transferred are placed with adoptive families within a few days of becoming available for adoption at our partner shelters.
This program would not be possible without the dedicated volunteers who are willing to drive 19-23 hours each way to make these life-saving trips possible. Each Shelter Partners trip costs Shelby Humane Society $750-$850 and gives a second chance to as many as 75 dogs per trip. Since the inception of this program in 2006, over 4,400 dogs have found forever families!

Prior to the game, Dwayne Wade said: "It could be emotional. We've thought about. But at the same time we have to win this game… But I think everybody has thought about that moment where you lean down and put the gold medal around your neck and you hear your country's song being played. That's when your emotions really come out because you really reflect on the journey…"
"We talked about on the bus ride over (for Saturday's practice at Beijing Normal University). We are not going to shy away from our sensitivity" said Wade," We know Melo is going to cry. We're not shying away from it. We know it's going to be a great moment, but we know we still have a job to do to get that moment."
And now the three-year effort to redeem themselves has culminated in a 118-107 victory for the Men's USA Basketball team as they delivered a lil dose of karma to Spain to bring home the Gold…with, of course, David Beckham and his golden balls watching from the sidelines.
Prince(ess) Kobe Bryant finally got a gold around his neck, and he did it a day after turning 30-not a bad gift for the patient and wicked black mamba. After nibbling on his first taste of gold: "It is more important and more special than any championship that any of us will ever win," Bryant said.
"I know that we had a tough road ahead of us. We knew that these guys (Spain) weren't going to roll over and give up that easily," U.S. forward Chris Bosh said. "So we had to be men, and that's what it takes to win." Damn straight! Men they are…teamwork, commitment, heart, soul, sweat and determination are what these men are made of. And for me, Bosh was impressive as hell. Talk about a friggen warrior. Bosh tears that court up with more soul than I've seen most ballers do in a lifetime. I could watch him play and never get bored of that hunger on his face.
Speaking of hunger…Carmelo Anthony. Oh my Melo, Melo, Melo. Damn. I mean, what can I say? His scored 13 luscious points? He proudly marched around with an American Flag wrapped around his waist as I tried to stay focused on his neck where that beautiful gold was hanging…that he lit Kobe's cigar…that he drove me crazy…that I need to bite his medal, hard? I suspect if any 'game worn' Melo items turn up on the 'Right to Play' eBay auctions, my savings account will be drained.
Mad love to Jason Kidd for becoming the 13th U.S. player to win multiple gold medals-his first was in 2000. Mad love to the mighty-mighty-fine men of USA Basketball: Jason Kidd, Carlos Boozer, Tayshaun Prince, Kobe Bryant, Lebron James, Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony, Dwight Howard, Chris Paul, Michael Redd, and Deron Williams.
Go on with your bad selves and bite your medals, smoke those cigars, cuddle on the bus and party till next season. You did us all proud. Undefeated, uncompromised, united and unbelievable.

Introduction |
SICILY: July 1943A Good DeedThe Third Division landed in Sicily on July 10, 1943 at Licata. The infantry met little resistance on the beaches and advanced at a fast pace. There was a concern that pockets of the Germans or Italians could trouble the service troops landing behind the assault so the order of the day was to set a perimeter of trucks with .50 caliber ring-mounted guns. A walking guard went between the trucks with two hours on and four hours off. The trucks were strung along the high ground above a small river. Along the river was a valley floor of agricultural land. Sicily of is an arid country and very mountainous but the flatter land produces crops. The landing was contested by German fighter planes that harassed the new LST landing ships. Immediately after one of these vicious raids the 82nd Airborne flew over the ships. The ships took aim with antiaircraft guns and the sight was not pretty. Those poor bastards. I was on guard between the trucks, and on my first duty I heard a woman screaming along the river bottom. I wondered what was going on at that time that was not right but it quieted down so I didn't pay much attention to the commotion. At the end of the second guard shift of the screaming and crying of a women was heard again so I said to my partner on guard, "Let's go down and find out what is going on." We put our bayonets on our rifles and proceeded to the area. We encountered five or six Sicilian men in a small depression and by chance one of the men had been in Brooklyn and could speak English. He informed me some strange soldiers had forced them from their home and had taken their women. We learned later that the soldiers were French Moroccan troops called Goums. French Moroccan troops in France, winter of 1944-45. They were good soldiers and were used in the mountains. The man who spoke English came with us. Along the river's edge we found the women. As I remember, there were about five Goums with them. They were armed with Springfield rifles. My buddy and I proceeded to take their rifles and we threw the bolts in the river. The Sicilian man who accompanied us took the women under tow and, we took the Goums back to the depression. We then had to fight the Sicilian men from harming them, but a few threatening moves with our bayonets calmed things down. I asked the man who could speak English if the women were harmed or hurt. He said, "None were harmed." We gathered up the boltless rifles and then proceeded to the small area where we had camped.I hollered for the Corporal of the guard and who should come flying from his sack but First Sgt. Davis, stark naked, with a .45 cal. pistol in his hand. I asked what I should do with these guys. His answer was turn them loose. I said I had to have an officer's say-so. Captain Carrol spoke and said turn them loose. I asked the captain if he cared how fast I turned them loose and he said no. I took them outside our camp and hollered "Allez tout de suite" and fired five shots in the air and they took off at a high run. During my last haul on guard duty a whole platoon came back wanting their rifles. They were informed to come back in the morning and they would be given their rifles. The next morning Prince who could speak a bit of high school French informed them to leave the Sicilian women alone and returned their rifles. The next morning Captain Carrol gave a small speech and hoped this incident would not cause an international problem. I heard nothing more. The next day the Sicilians took their women in a cart to the village. A nice wave was presented as they drove by our camp. The Tenth EngineersI would be criticized if I did not tell some of the stories and deeds that the Tenth Engineer Battalion accomplished during the battles of this war. One unsung and every day chore was to provide water for troops of the Division and for anybody that happened to be in the area. As I remember it, our Battalion Commander Lt. Col.Petherick said the Division and attached troops needed at least 17,000 gallons per day, about one gallon per man, but under normal conditions 60,000 gallons were needed. This water was chlorinated and distributed from three water points with one point in reserve. Sicily was very short of water and this created a major problem to provide the needed water. All the engineers were honorary members of the Great Unwashed, and were fed C Rations the whole six weeks. Oh what a jolly war this was going to be were our thoughts, but it only made us mean for what was coming. Bridge to the SkyThird Division in Siciy: July and August 1943 The map of Sicily shows a long straight coastline forming the north coast suggesting a major fault formed this rugged line with many high, sheer cliffs plunging to the sea. Of course there had to be a road along this coast that required tunnels and cuts along these cliffs. At Cape Calava the Germans blew the road off the face of the cliff into the ocean. A Company. of the Tenth Engineers got the job of putting the road back on the cliff. The many photos to follow and Ernie Pyle's story from his book Brave Men tells it best. I was there most of the day and I remember this historic event. The job was finished in about 24 hours and we beat the British by that time into Messina. Gen. Truscott gave the Engineers a keg of Cognac for their efforts. The motto for the present day Tenth Engineer. Battalion is now "Bridge to the Sky" in memory of this great accomplishment Another little episode that took place while A Co was putting the road back on the face of the cliff occurred because a bulldozer was needed down the road to fill blown parts of the road. From a small village a couple miles west of Cape Calava the Engineers borrowed three leaky fishing boats about 20 feet long. They took the tarpaulins off there trucks, wrapped them around the boats to keep them from leaking, then put a deck across the boats, and drove the dozer onto the deck. An amphibious jeep towed the boats down the coast around Cape Calava to mend the road to Messina. The army bulldozer saved many hours of back breaking labor building roads. The Germans did not have this machine.

With an ethereal quality and pops of colour, this story gets top marks for being bang on trend this season as well as painfully pretty! Angela said the shoot was 'all about colour contrasting with monotone skin, and lips blending into the hair. I used Radiance Primer mixed with Luminous Skin Colour, plus the Compact Concealer buffed into lips. Creme Eye Colour was applied in a painterly style without mascara to give the look a cooler edge'.

Students may prefer to use a name other than their legal name during orientation or may prefer to specify a gender pronoun different than the gender at the time of application. Though orientation records are based on the student's legal name and legal gender, our staff is happy to assist students in using their preferred name and pronoun whenever possible. Below are the most common situations where name and gender would be relevant at orientation:
1) Orientation will assist in asking that your preferred name be added to the campus registration system in addition to your legal name. Professors are asked to use preferred names. The university must use your legal name and your legal gender until you have it legally changed. What this means in practice is that you can have a preferred name listed, but, in some cases people may inadvertently use the wrong name because they are consulting the legal name. There are also times when you may have to clarify that your legal name is different from your preferred name.
Orientation will make certain your name badge reflects your preferred name, and will notify your academic advisor of your preferred name and pronoun.
2) Students are encouraged to review the following website--there are many useful tips and resources for trans-students on campus:
3) You'll need to follow the instructions on the above website to get your campus email address configured so your preferred name is what is used. Specific page is here: http://www.colorado.edu/glbtqrc/name-pronoun-gender-marker-changes
4) Orientation overnight housing:
Typically students will be assigned a roommate for their overnight stay during Orientation. However, if you did not indicate a gender on your Admissions application (see above), you will receive a phone call prior to Orientation asking what type of room accommodation that you would prefer. You may choose a single or to be with a roommate, and if with a roommate which gender they should be. If you have concerns about your housing accommodations, please contact Maria Spoon at 303 735-1562 or email@example.com.

Johanna Farmer is one of 150 Native American students on the Morris campus.
Dedicated to the Native American
By Bob San and Judy Riley
From eNews, April 21, 2005
Four years ago, Lisa Rainbow came to the University of Minnesota, Morris, (UMM) because of its strong academic program. This spring, she is graduating. And, she says, she couldn't have done it without UMM's American Indian Tuition Waiver.
"I came [to UMM] with my belongings and no money, [but] the tuition waiver program saved me because my family is unable to support me financially," says Rainbow, a sociology major and member of the Spirit Lake Nation in North Dakota.
The history of the UMM American Indian Tuition Waiver is rooted to the campus grounds. In 1887, the Sisters of Mercy (an order of the Roman Catholic Church) established the American Indian Boarding School on the site that is now the Morris campus.
"The boarding school was part of a government effort to mainstream Indian children," explains UMM chancellor Sam Schuman. "The Sisters of Mercy surely thought they were doing a good and useful thing, but from today's perspective, the off-reservation boarding schools were not a good idea. They were a place that took kids out of their families, out of their communities, and imposed upon them most of the conventions of the majority culture. [The students] weren't allowed to speak their own language; they were dressed up like white, middle-class workers."
However, the nation's Indian boarding schools began closing by the early 1900s, says Schuman. At about the same time, the Sisters of Mercy turned over their school--its land and buildings--to the federal government.
"The nuns had one requirement in the transaction," says Schuman. "No matter what institution was built on the land, American Indian students would be given an education there for free. It was a condition the federal government accepted."
UMM has honored this promise since its founding in 1960, waiving tuition for American Indian students it admits. To be eligible for the tuition waiver, students must meet UMM admissions requirements and show documented proof of their American Indian heritage or ancestry. Applicants are not required to be residents of Minnesota.
"I think a key aspect is that UMM is dedicated to teaching about Native Americans. We, as Native students, are not alone in trying to be educated," says Farmer.
The impact of the tuition waiver program has been positive. American Indian students make up 7.2 percent of the UMM student population, compared to just 1 percent of undergraduate students nationally. They are the largest student-of-color population on campus, comprising 7 percent of the nearly 2,000 students enrolled.
American Indian students who attend UMM are also graduating at higher rates. According to the Minnesota Higher Education Services Office, only 29 percent of American Indian students who entered Minnesota's four-year colleges and universities in 1994 graduated in six years. For the same cohort at UMM, 53 percent graduated in six years, and an additional 5 percent graduated from another college within the University of Minnesota system.
Johanna Farmer is another student who credits the tuition waiver for much of her success. A Lakota from the Rosebud Sioux Tribe and Cheyenne River Sioux in South Dakota, Farmer is graduating in four years with a degree in Native American studies.
"The tuition waiver made college affordable," says Farmer. "It allowed me to stay at Morris, and do all the incredible things UMM has to offer." Farmer has been able to hold two internships, study abroad, participate in UMM campus activities, and serve two years as the UMM student representative to the U's Board of Regents.
"[The tuition waiver] is critical as most Native students come from a lower socio-economic status and may not otherwise be able to afford to go to a four-year university," says Julie Pelletier, UMM assistant professor of anthropology. "It also expresses a sense of welcome to Native students to know that they are considered a valuable part of the campus community."
"UMM is dedicated to Native Americans in more ways than just the tuition waiver," says Farmer. "I think a key aspect is that UMM is dedicated to teaching about Native Americans. We, as Native students, are not alone in trying to be educated."
In addition to the waiver, UMM offers two other programs geared toward Native students--the Multi-Ethnic Student Program and the student-led Circle of Nations Indian Association.
The tuition waiver program costs UMM nearly $1 million per year--the cost to cover tuition for 150 American Indian students. Schuman is actively seeking funding support for this unfunded mandate from the federal government. And he pledges that UMM will continue to honor the tuition waiver.
"It's a significant fiscal burden, but it's the right thing to do and we are not going to stop doing it," he says. "Native American students are a vital part of the UMM community."

Local authorities must come up with their own planning guidelines to ensure valuable farmland is not lost to renewable energy developments, an MP has warned.
Suffolk Coastal's Dr Therese Coffey outlined her concerns during a Parliamentary debate.
Dr Coffey said in the debate she was increasingly worried about the amount of good grade farmland starting to be used for other purposes – particularly energy production.
The loss of land for agricultural use would lead to less produce being grown, forcing up prices and impacting on food security, she added.
"There have been speculative applications for solar farms on arable farmland," she said. "Reducing the amount of good farmland will in turn reduce the supply of domestically produced food which can adversely impact food prices and reduce our food security.
"Both Suffolk Coastal and Waveney district councils should get on the front foot and devise their own supplementary planning guidance on renewable energy for their local plans so they can take a strategic look on the use of agricultural land."
A spokesman for Suffolk Coastal and Waveney said they had to follow Government guidelines and each application was judged on its individual merits. He said in the case of Suffolk Coastal its Core Strategy – which is set to be examined by a planning inspector over the coming weeks – followed national policy and therefore generally encouraged the generation of renewable energy, particularly where it will serve local communities, although they would seek to protect environmental assets.
"Unless and until our Core Strategy has been approved we cannot attempt to develop any new supplementary guidance on this issue or indeed any other issue," he added. He said Waveney adopted a similar positive approach – subject to environmental considerations – and was currently preparing a Supplementary Planning Document to help in the implementation of this policy, which will shortly be subject to public consultation.

The shocking plans made by Peterborough Council for 3,000 acres of prime productive Fenland farmland to disappear under solar panels should worry anyone who thinks food production should be prioritised over renewable energy, especially when we have no effective controls on energy waste in place.

What a load of rot. Globally, the 2012 grain harvest was the third largest ever (following 2011 and 2008) and if it weren't for the amount going to into animal feed and biofuels there would be plenty to go round. Instead of whining about a few solar panels here and there, Coffey should maybe look at the bigger picture.
Friday, October 19, 2012
The food deficit is, depending on who you listen to, already 25% to 50% using 80% of our land mass for farming, so stopping using it for renewable energy or bio fuels isn't going to make up the massive shortfall, even if there were no buidlings, roads, houses, or even turbines, there is not enough land mass to provide all our own food for the population we have, we can't rape and decimate it any further. We would need to drain the North sea to be fully food secure, and yes even if we got shot of all the immigrants it would still be the case, we are about 50 million too many. Maybe they should be looking to take land away from some of the large land owners, one in Scotland was given over a million acres for sending us, his peasants, off to fight for the king, we need that land back now thanks very much. The Tonight program had their take on this aired blaming a lack of farmland due to too much building, then you can read in the EDP about tens of thousands of tonnes of wheat and corn being shipped to where the money is, China and India, which is pushing prices up that we can see in animal feeds but not in the supermarket as yet, but it is coming and it's already way to expensive to shop now. If there truly is a shortfall, as we know there is, why are farmers allowed to grow bio fuels at all, or ship all their food crop to another continent. Not sure if this MP is talking about bio fuels or wind power, but whatever it is, it is more complicated and the crux is the population size, which no MP will ever address as they wouldn't get voted in.

Microsoft co-founder to fund 'world's largest plane' to launch people to space
The new venture plans to bring "airport-like operations" to space flights and eventually, human missions.
Microsoft co-founder and billionaire, Paul Allen and pioneering aerospace engineer, Burt Rutan have joined forces to develop what they say will be the next generation of space travel.
Launching their new company, Stratolaunch Systems this week, Allen and Rutan announced ambitious plans to develop "the world's largest plane" that would launch satellites, cargo and ultimately, people into orbit.
Allen and Rutan say they are stepping in to fill the gap left when the US government retired its Space Shuttle program earlier this year.
Speaking at a press conference this week, Allen shared the company's vision to build a "private, orbital space platform business" for cargo and manned missions that can offer "greater flexibility, safety and cost effectiveness" than anything previously launched.
Allen funded and Rutan designed SpaceShipOne, which made the history books in 2004 as the first privately built and funded manned aircraft to fly to the edge of space.
The experimental spacecraft evolved into SpaceShipTwo, which has since been commercialised for space tourists and is backed by Sir Richard Branson and Virgin Galactic.
It is hoped that Virgin Galactic's first space flights for tourists will launch from its newly built spaceport in New Mexico by late next year.
The world's largest plane?
Allen and Rutan say they plan to take space travel to the next level, getting spacecraft into orbit using the largest aircraft ever flown.
The giant twin-aircraft carrier would be built from parts of 747 jets.
Powered by six 747 engines, the carrier would airlift a spacecraft for mid-air drop launches, putting cargo and, eventually paying passengers into orbit.
Designed with a wingspan longer than a football field and a takeoff weight of more than 1.2 million pounds, the carrier would need a 12,000ft long runway for take-off and landing, the company said.
Stratolaunch said the carrier would need to serve a large airport or spaceport, such as Kennedy Space Center.
Allen declined to reveal how much he was investing in the venture but said it would be "an order of magnitude" greater than his investment in SpaceShipOne, which is estimated to have cost US$20m (£12.8m) to develop.
He also said of the new venture: "It will keep America at the forefront of space exploration and give tomorrow's children something to search for in the night sky and dream about."
The first unmanned test flight is penciled in for 2015.

DES MOINES � Gov. Terry Branstad said Wednesday, Dec. 5, 2012, he wants to eliminate allowable growth from the state school funding formula and replace it with something else.
�We haven�t put (a proposal) together yet, my staff is working on it,� Branstad said during a question-answer session at the Iowa Farm Bureau�s annual meeting in Des Moines. �We�re looking at some type of inflation ... a factor that would be fully funded by the state.�
Iowa lawmakers each year set allowable growth, which is the percentage that a school district can allow its budget to grow from year to year. Branstad told the group the practical effect of that system is �you have an automatic increase in property tax each time allowable growth goes up.�
Allowable growth covers a good share of schools� infrastructure, transportation and operational costs. Lawmakers, particularly Democrats, have criticized the governor for recent proposals of zero allowable growth.
�Something like this, we�d have to see the details of what comes out,� said Jean Hessburg, spokeswoman for the Iowa State Education Association.
Branstad, who earned a standing ovation from the audience during his entrance and exit, kept his prepared remarks on the topic of taxes.
He said a property tax relief plan will be a primary part of his legislative agenda for the 85th General Assembly, which convenes on Jan. 14.
�I want to assure local governments that we will fully fund the (tax revenue) reduction,� he said. �But we want to make sure it�s a replacement and not used for additional spending.�
Branstad also said he thinks a fuel tax increase could pass the Iowa Legislature this session.
�The only way I see the legislature doing it is if it is part of a comprehensive tax reform proposal,� Branstad said. �The thing about it is, is it�s a motor user fee which means people who use the roads, pay for them � including out-of-state users.�
The remark about out-of-state users drew applause from the crowd. It was one of two times the governor got applause during his speech. The other was when he said that state workers should pay at least 20 percent for their health insurance coverage.

Sequestration Impacts FDA's Ability to Deliver New Innovations to Allergy & Asthma Patients
On May 30, 2013 @ 4:04 pm In All Articles
[1]Federal government sequestration cuts have begun. Sequestration is the employment of automatic, across-the-board spending cuts in the face of annual budget deficits. As members of the Alliance for a Stronger FDA, we (AANMA) have concluded that the FDA's public health responsibilities cannot be accomplished with its existing budget, particularly post-sequestration.
Impact To You:
Act Now & Speak Your Mind:
You can help stop this assault on FDA allergy and asthma programs. Please contact your member of Congress and urge your Senators and Representatives to: (1) stop the unprecedented sequestration cuts to FDA user fees and, (2) voice your concern over the $209 million in FDA sequester cuts that threaten to delay and development of new allergy and asthma therapies that would help the 50 million Americans who have been diagnosed with these diseases.

How to use clove bud oil?
Clove essential oil is extracted from the evergreen clove tree, which grows mainly in tropical countries.
For oil production is used as branches and leaves and buds of the plant. But the most is the quality of clove oil obtained from the kidney, and that is what is recommended in a home facial.
Also, this oil has a strong, pungent, spicy, tart and sweet, fruity flavor.
The use of clove oil is recommended, especially for skin care suffering from acne and pustular rash. This is due to the fact that clove oil has potent anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antiseptic effect.
With regular use, it helps to get rid of acne and inflammation on the face, as well as from various pustular rash, including boils and difficult to heal wounds and sores on the skin.
In particular the use of clove oil helps with lupus, scabies, warts, and assists in the healing of burns, cuts, abrasions, and other types of skin damage. Cloves essential oil can be used as a refreshing and tonic for fatigue and already fading skin.
Methods of using clove oil
The use of clove oil in its pure form is possible only in small quantities, and then only for a point lubrication warts, and skin affected by scabies.
With acne, and other chronic inflammatory diseases of the skin, clove oil is better to dissolve in some vegetable oils (sea buckthorn oil, grape seed oil, milk thistle, and black cumin). Just add 3-4 drops of essential oil of cloves on 2 teaspoons vegetable oil and, and use this mixture to lubricate the problem areas of the skin.
Well, you can also add 2 drops of clove oil to the home masks and lotions designed to eliminate acne. Recipes you will find on our website.
For infected wounds treatment on the skin it is recommended to dissolve in 100 grams of pure water 30 drops of clove oil, and clean the wound with this solution several times a day. Also, this solution works well for compresses for poorly healing wounds, cuts, burns, and bruises on the skin, etc., and in the processing of inflamed skin.
Well, to refresh and toning flabby skin clove oil can be added to a variety of anti-aging creams and masks, made at home (2 drops of the composition). And, of course, these recipes are available on our website.
Caution: highly desirable to have an overdose of clove oil, and is not recommended use it during pregnancy, and increased nervous excitability.

Contact Sports Desk: Call: 603-516-2949 / E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com Berwick Academy boys falter in second half
Sunday, May 12, 2013
Hebron scored nine straight goals in the second half and held Berwick scoreless until the final seconds to earn a 13-7 victory, handing the home team a setback in its quest for a postseason berth. "If I knew that, it would have been a different outcome," said Berwick coach Bill Clapp when asked about the difference between the first half and the second half. "The guys put a lot of effort intot he first half. We were passing and catching effectively. But Hebron's a very talented team. They were able to adjust at halftime." Berwick fell to 5-7 and now must make hay in its final two games, at Proctor Academy on Friday and at home next Saturday against Beaver Country Day School. "We started strong and followed our game plan," Berwick's Sam Hereford said. "We just have to play full games. When it comes to that, you just have to key in on fundementals." The Bulldogs outscored the visiting Lumberjacks 3-2 in both the first and second quarters to stake themselves to a 6-4 halftime advantage. Will Reis scored three goals on the afternoon, including one in each of the first two quarters, to lead Berwick. Things unraveled fast for Berwick in the third period. The Lumberjacks (8-5)outscored the Bulldogs 5-0, including a pair just seven seconds apart that put Hebron ahead for good. Jake Bosse scored twice for Hebron in that stretch, and the visitors led 9-6 after three stops. "We had a little bit of the 'bus legs' going on," said Hebron coach Owen "Kit" Smith Jr., who plays professional lacrosse for the Boston Cannons. "I felt confident that we were going to be able to push through it. I told them to settle down and we made some adjustments defensively." It was more of the same in the fourth quarter as the Lumberjacks scored early and often to put the game out of reach. Miles Horn and Nico Mangiello scored four goals apiece on the afternoon to lead Hebron. Goaltender Pat Shelley made a number of saves. "Their transitions against us were strong," Clapp said. "They have some kids who can shoot. They started to release the ball a lot better in the third quarter." Berwick's Reis scored his team's only goal of the second half, which came with 16 seconds to play. Brendan Bradley, Stephen Sherbahn, Hereford and Joey Lazzaro also scored for the Bulldogs. |

Kobe Bryant misses first 15 shots, sinks go-ahead 3-pointer to lift Lakers
LOS ANGELES -- As long as there's time left on the clock, Kobe Bryant can still work wonders even when he's having a horrible game.
Bryant burnished his reputation as one of the NBA's greatest closers, hitting a 3-pointer with 20 seconds left after missing his first 15 shots, to help the Los Angeles Lakers hold off the last-place New Orleans Hornets 88-85 on Saturday.
"There's always time to redeem himself," Jarrett Jack of the Hornets said. "Nobody's even going to talk about those first three quarters. They're going to talk about that last shot he made to put his team over the top."
More on the Lakers
For more news and notes on the Lakers, check out the Land O' Lakers blog from the Kamenetzky brothers. Blog
It was just the third field goal of the game for Bryant, who finished with 11 points on 3 of 21 shooting as the Lakers ended a two-game skid at home.
"Kobe never gets down on himself," Andrew Bynum said.
Pau Gasol had 21 points and 11 rebounds, and Bynum added 19 points and 10 rebounds, while Ramon Sessions had 10 points and 10 assists for the Lakers.
Bryant was 0 for 7 on 3-pointers before making his only one. He had five assists, three rebounds and four fouls in 39 minutes. He endured the worst start to a game in his career, having previously missed his first 13 shots against San Antonio on Dec. 28, 2010.
"I'm stubborn. You have to have that kind of attitude, that kind of determination or stubbornness," Bryant said. "That's what gets teams over the hump to win multiple championships.
"If I were to miss that shot, everybody would have killed me."
Jack had 18 points and 10 assists playing with a sprained right ankle for the Hornets, but he missed a go-ahead bank shot with 4.9 seconds left.
"I just played it off the glass wrong," he said. "I got to the spot I wanted and we got the matchup we wanted. I was expecting Bryant to come over as well. I just shot it off the glass a little too hard, but we got exactly to where we wanted to be."
Jason Smith added 17 points and 10 rebounds, and former Clipper Al-Farouq Aminu had 10 points for the Hornets, who lost while playing their second straight game with just eight players available because of injuries. Trevor Ariza, Carl Landry, and Chris Kaman all sat out, while new father Gustavo Ayon and Emeka Okafor weren't with the team.
"It's tough to go against the Lakers with only eight guys, but everybody on our team hung together," Smith said.
The Lakers' anemic bench still got outscored by the Hornets' three reserves, 26-19. As a team, the Lakers went 32 of 77 from the floor, playing poorly for much of the game until being rescued by Bryant's late heroics.
"New Orleans came out as the undermanned team and we took them lightly," Sessions said.
The Lakers trailed 75-65 before he hit a 17-foot jumper over Marco Belinelli with 7:52 remaining for his first field goal.
Bryant followed on the next possession with a fadeaway jumper and got fouled, making the free throw to get his team within seven after sitting out the first four minutes of the fourth.
"Fatigue might have something to do with it," Bryant said of his struggles, "but I had good shots, good shots out of the rhythm of the offense, but none of them went down. You have to be patient and just focus on the last quarter and focus on getting some good shots."
Bryant stepped to the line with 58 seconds left after Jack was called for a blocking foul. He made the first and missed the second, leaving the Lakers trailing 85-83 and the fans in agony. Their voices rose in a cheer when he finally made his first basket after groaning on his earlier misses.
"I have a great team here and a lot of support and I really pushed myself defensively to get after the guys," Bryant said. "Sometimes you have to sacrifice a little bit of the offense and the stamina that you have to defend because that's what we believe is going to get us to a championship."
Greivis Vasquez missed a 3-pointer with 31 seconds to go, setting up another signature closing moment by Bryant that Jack couldn't defend.
"He hadn't been shooting the ball well all game, so I figured he would try to get to the basket, but he pulled up," Jack said. "I tried to contest it as best I could, but he hit a tough shot."
Bryant was 0 for 7 in the first half, missing four 3-pointers while dishing out five assists.
The Lakers opened the game on a 20-6 run before New Orleans scored the final eight points to trail 20-14. Steve Blake sparked the Lakers' bench with three 3-pointers in the second while Matt Barnes scored four in a row to extend their lead to 41-30. But the Hornets closed with a 9-2 run and trailed 43-39 at halftime.
Game notes
The Hornets have held 40 of their first 52 opponents under 100 points. ... Before the game, Bryant met with Lakers fan Allene Wynn of suburban Pacoima, fulfilling the 105-year-old woman's wish. She attended as a guest of the team and pulled no punches with Bryant, telling him, "You need to play better." ... The Lakers played their first non-holiday home game on a Saturday in the regular season since Jan. 17, 2004. ... The Lakers are 2-0 against the Hornets this season, having rallied from 17 points down on the road to win 107-101 in overtime earlier this month.

The Cherokee County treasurer's office is in hot water after auditors have found more than $23,000 to still be missing since 2012. A 2011 and 2012 audit showed more than $300,000 was originally unaccounted for, but all but $23,000 has been found. County Commissioner Richard Hilderbrand tells News Talk KZRG the county hired an outside firm to find the rest of the cash, but it's not an easy job.
"The auditors are having a hard time because there's never been a bank reconciliation in that department, and there's a number of bank accounts open."
He says their problems stem from a lack of control within the department.
"Every person had the ability to delete transactions; we recently got that changed. Deposits have not been made within 24 hours, sometimes it's two to three weeks. And there's still no bank reconciliations happening."
Hilderbrand says they should get the final audit report back within the next two weeks.

Harvard, Ayn Rand, and the NCAA Basketball Tournament
OHappy Sunday monkeys,
I came across a couple of interesting articles over at Bloomberg, written by Jonathan Mahler, one of their sports columnists, that touch on some peculiar happenings during the recent NCAA tournament: Florida Gulf Coast University's historic win streak into the Sweet 16, and Harvard's first tournament win since its inception 371 years ago. The author credits some interesting aspects of these two stories, FGCU's success is credited to none other than Ayn Rand, and Atlas Shrugged in particular, and the latter's success is credited to a rather shrewd move in attracting talent without the use of athletic scholarships.
Mahler immediately points the reader to the required reading for FGCU's economics and finance undergrads as a key to their success: Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand.
Embedded in this long, ponderous novel -- required reading for all undergraduate economics and finance majors at FGCU -- is the formula for transforming your college from a bunch of trailers on a swamp into the most talked-about school in the country. It's simple, really. All you need to do is practice what Ayn Rand called "rational self-interest."
Don't waste your time wooing Nobel laureates to your faculty or trying to recruit National Merit Scholars to a college they've never heard of. Do what any self-respecting entrepreneur would do: Devote your resources to building a first-class Division I basketball program.
For all of you sports lovers out there, this is not a bad idea. In fact, its not unusual to see a university, after some athletic success, be able to leverage it's newfound publicity into potential candidates with stronger academic performance. Virginia has seen two school, George Mason and Virginia Commonwealth turn NCAA tournament wins into better academic classes. I mean, prior to 2006 and 2011 respectively, neither of those schools had any presence nationally, now, they absolutely do. Butler's 2010 run to the Final Four was actually studied in terms of how much it was worth to the school:
Just how valuable is a strong showing in the NCAA men's basketball tournament? As it happens, Butler, whose improbable run to the 2010 Final Four is still the stuff of legend, has studied this very question. Its near-championship run -- it lost in the finals to Duke -- generated precisely $639,273,881.82 in publicity for the university. That's to say nothing of the increases in merchandise sales and charitable giving, or the 41 percent surge in applications.
The connection to Ayn Rand at FGCU goes deeper, according to Mahler, and is epitomized in their head coach, Andy Enfield:
Rand wasn't much of a sports fan, but she would have loved Enfield. To begin with, he's a proud capitalist: Before becoming a basketball coach, he made a fortune with a health-care startup. (Rand: "Until and unless you discover that money is the root of all good, you ask for your own destruction.") Enfield's wife is a model, validating Rand's belief that in order for a man to be truly satisfied, he needs "the highest type of woman … the hardest to conquer." Rand would also have found a lot to like in the Eagles' style of play: unconstrained, creative and utterly self-confident. "The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me."
What I do find interesting in the author's write up, is his mention of Harvard's coup in attracting talent away from former basketball powerhouses:
Harvard won its first tournament game this year, too -- 371 years after its first commencement. (They may be a little slow in Cambridge, Massachusetts, but Harvard finally seems to have figured out the allocative efficiency of college basketball: This year, the Crimson managed to lure away one of the nation's most coveted high-school prospects from the likes of Wake Forest, UCLA and Texas.)
Which leads us to the second column written by Mahler which outlines the very clever plan by Harvard and other Ivies to create an athlete monopoly, to accompany it's academic monopoly (okay, it might not be the stated goal of the plan):
Several years ago, the Ivy League significantly altered its financial-aid structure. The Ivies didn't start offering athletic scholarships. That wouldn't have been consistent with their student-first images. Instead, they did something much more effective: They took hundreds of millions of dollars from their massive endowments and repurposed it toward need-based aid.
A Harvard (or Yale, or Princeton, etc.) education was suddenly a lot cheaper for the lower- or middle-income families. Student loans were essentially eliminated. Grants for middle-class families basically doubled. And families earning less than $60,000 would no longer be asked to contribute anything toward their child's Ivy League degree.
Frankly, I'm surprised they didn't do this sooner, considering the size of their endowments, but the author raises a compelling point:
From a pure cost perspective, that athletic scholarship to the University of Michigan is no longer necessarily a better deal than that financial-aid package from Harvard. What's more, at Harvard, your aid package can't be revoked at the coach's whim if you underperform or get injured.
I see what you're doing there, Ivy league... Truly diabolical. But, as you'll see, the plan won't come full circle, its true genius revealed, until the inclusion of, you guessed it, Wall Street:
Some 25 percent of Ivy League graduates will go on to work on Wall Street, earning untold millions. Many will donate at least a portion of their fortunes back to their alma maters -- further swelling their already bloated endowments, even as state schools suffer funding cuts and accumulate debt investing in their athletic departments. Some of that endowment money will, in turn, be used to upgrade athletic facilities and hire the country's best coaches, while also subsidizing irresistible financial-aid packages.
Enjoy the games and have a great weekend!
"My caddie's chauffeur informs me that a bank is a place where people put money that isn't properly invested."
The pool of athletes who can
?The pool of athletes who can actually play basketball at Harvard is still extremely low when compared with other schools such as a Michigan though all they've done is leveled the playing field slightly. I once heard an assistant hockey coach at an Ivy school with an OK program (Brown, Dartmouth, Princeton, Yale) describe the pool of athletes they have to choose from. He said that when they go and look at recruits at a high level junior hockey tournament in Canada, 90% of the players aren't good enough to play on their team and of those 10% who are good enough, 90% don't qualify academically.....I don't know if anyone else here knows if this is accurate (seems a little exaggerated to me).
the Ivies will most certainly
CFthe Ivies will most certainly lower their admissions standard for student athletes as the money continues to roll in. It will be the only way to lure big name coaches to the programs. How hard would it be to pluck a few more perfect SAT scorers to balance out the extra 4 and 5 star recruits they take in?
I don't know, why bother? The
OI don't know, why bother? The Ivy League schools will never be as good as even mid level college sports schools. They already have infinite demand because of their brand and recognition as the best educations people can receive. No need to focus energy on something that will never be a big driver of business.
Would Harvard offer players
?Would Harvard offer players just based on basketball, for example, prowess though? For example, take Andrew Wiggins, who is labeled the next LeBron James. He's clearly a basketball virtuoso and is the most accomplished amateur player in the world, but would Harvard offer a guy like that who probably doesn't have the grades or test scores to get in otherwise? I know Harvard accepts people with extraordinary backgrounds and isn't just GPA/SAT, so that's why I'm wondering about that.
Also, in spite of that, I think we're overlooking the fact that most elite basketball prospects don't look at schools to get into Wall Street. If that were the case, Stanford, for example, would be a basketball powerhouse and Kentucky would be off the radar. Most of these guys want to go where they have the best shot at getting into the NBA, which would require a huge investment in top coaching talent, facilities, etc. I don't think a financial aid package alone is enough to attract the very best for the aforementioned reasons and the ivies would need to make a more conscious effort to invest in athletics to attract the top athletes in revenue generating sports like football and basketball.

First day? Welcome!
True or False: You're ready to achieve your higher education and career goals? That's what we thought. And that's what we're here for. From college to career-we've got you covered. So get going! Your future's waiting.
Do you love Theatre? You'd better, if you choose to pursue graduate study in Drama and Dramatics/Theatre Arts. During your studies, you'll gain knowledge of the entire spectrum of what makes theatre happen. You'll learn, first of all, about theatre history, dramatic literature, great playwrights from the past, and the origins of theatre as we know it. You'll study Shakespeare and other great writers for the stage. You'll learn all about where theatre began, and how it got to where it is today—and you'll gain the skills to make hypotheses about future theatre trends and possibilities.
You'll also learn how to make theatre happen by taking courses that involve directing, acting, and teaching drama. You'll learn about all the components of theatrical productions, from costumes to makeup, from stage lighting to scenery. You'll learn about technological advancements that have taken theatre to new heights. By the end of your studies, your ample knowledge will enable you to design, write, direct—or whatever path you choose to pursue.
While many programs require graduate students to submit a thesis, some programs give the option of a creative thesis—which can include anything from writing a play to directing a theatrical production. In all cases, your studies in Drama and Dramatics/Theatre Arts will be far from classroom-bound.
There are several degrees related to this field; they go by different names in different programs and vary slightly from one to the next. There is a M.A. in Theatre Production, designed for educators who wish to produce theatre productions in their schools; there is a M.A. in Theatre Arts, covering a broad range of drama concepts from directing to playwriting. Some programs link Dramatics with Communication for a M.A. in Speech Communication and Dramatic Arts. Those programs that offer a Ph.D. generally have a similar range of options. Because of the broad range of possibilities, it's important to research programs to be sure their emphasis is the emphasis you want.

A 28-year-old African-American female with a past medical history of Crohn's disease and associated arthritis was evaluated for chest pain of 5-month duration that had become worse over the previous week. Her past medical history was significant for Crohn's disease diagnosed 7 years earlier when she presented with nonbloody diarrhea after a trip to Kenya. She underwent a colonoscopy that confirmed the diagnosis, and she was treated with mesalamine and steroids for 1 year at an outside institution. She had one flare of her bowel disease 2 years later, which required hospitalization for 2 days and was treated briefly with oral steroids. She also underwent a liver biopsy because of abnormal liver enzymes. This revealed primary sclerosing cholangitis which was not specifically treated at that time.
Ten months prior to this presentation, the patient was admitted with a threatened abortion at 13 weeks of gestation along with an asymmetric polyarthritis of the fingers, wrists, ...
