Religion & Spirituality
Religion & Spirituality
Religion is an organized set of fundamental beliefs shared by a number of people or sects that centers around explaining the cause, purpose and nature of the universe. These sets of beliefs often consider the universe as the creation of some supreme power or powers. Religions involve ritual, devotional and cultural practices in their belief systems, as well as a code of ethics contained therein. Religions are usually centered around several texts that contain all of these beliefs within, in addition to narratives and histories.
Spirituality refers to the practice of concerning oneself with the inner spirit or soul, as opposed to material or physical things. Spirituality is neither a religion nor necessarily affiliated with religions or organizations. Rather, it is a way of life that is inherently personal. People practice spirituality in many different ways, but common themes in spirituality involve getting to know oneself, feeling connected to oneself and others, and finding meaning, purpose and direction in life.

Speedy the geoduck is Evergreen's mascot. The geoduck has been called every name in the book: weird, versatile, baffling, even a delicacy, but Speedy represents the essence of Evergreen's charm.
What the Heck is a Geoduck?
Despite the name, a geoduck is not a geode, nor is it a duck. In fact, it's pronounced like gooey-duck. Clearly, nothing is quite as it seems when it comes to the geoduck.
The geoduck is among the world's largest clams, weighing three pounds on average. It's so large, it can't fit into its own shell. Omnia extares, indeed!
Geoducks will live longer than you or I. Geoducks have an average lifespan of 147 years. Technically, that makes them supercentenarians, but we'll settle with just super.
The word geoduck comes from the Lushootseed word gʷídəq, meaning "dig deep." Geoducks stretch their siphons out from over three feet beneath the sand. Get out your clam-diggers.
Geoducks are only found in the Puget Sound and the Strait of Georgia near Vancouver, British Columbia in Canada. Pacific Northwest represent!
Geoducks, having a savory flavor, are a delicacy in some countries. There are many ways to prepare a geoduck: serve it raw as sashimi, or turn it into a pie.
The Geoduck in Pop Culture
Speedy appears as BuzzFeed's 2nd-weirdest college mascot, and has been featured on several other similar lists:
- #3 weirdest college mascot at Campus Explorer
- #5 strangest on PetsLady
- #7 weirdest college mascot at FirstPointUSA
- #7 weirdest college mascot at Huffington Post
- #8 most baffling college mascot at TheBestColleges.org
- One of the most unusual mascots in college sports, according to WBKR in Owensboro, Kentucky.
- #9 on Buzzfeed's somewhat strange, but mostly awesome college mascots list.
- One of 11 interesting college mascots on College News.
- And the #1 worst college mascot ever to stroll a sideline according to MSN Now. (Haters!)
Speedy is one of just two non-insect invertebrate college mascots. The other is Sammy the UC Santa Cruz Banana Slug. Just don't call 'em spineless.
Geoducks have been featured in Dirty Jobs, No Reservations, Iron Chef, and many other TV shows.
Speedy likes you, and you can like Speedy back on Facebook. Or follow Speedy Q. Geoduck on Twitter.
From the Seashore to the Sidelines
The geoduck is a symbol of the essence of Evergreen: accessible to all who are willing to dig deep.
At Evergreen, the Geoduck represents more than team members and fans. Founders of the college wanted a mascot that epitomized the difference between traditional schools and Evergreen's innovative ideas. It had to be the opposite of all the snarling, fierce, aggressive mascots typically seen in athletics.
It is a symbol of the essence of the college: accessible to all who are willing to dig deep—stable, yet flexible, and the antidote to departmental thinking and design that is the standard in most colleges and universities. And since Evergreen is devoted to sustainable and environmentally conscious practices, the geoduck—a integral part of the Pacific Northwest ecosystem—is the perfect representative. Geoducks are the most abundant marine animal in the south Puget Sound, with each adult clam filtering about 30 gallons of water every day.
The clam uses a tiny foot to burrow into the seafloor as it grows. Its shell can end up several feet down, with only its neck poking up into the water. Called siphons, these necks, double-barreled like a shotgun, dimple the sand like rows of wheat. Geoducks feed by drawing microscopic creatures called phytoplankton down one side of the neck, and they expel filtered water through the other. Once buried, a geoduck's shell remains sedentary. While other clams move to avoid predators, a geoduck, when approached by a hungry crab or spiny dogfish, retracts its siphon, like a turtle withdrawing its head.—Smithsonian.com, "Geoducks: Happy as Clams"
The Humble Origin of Speedy
The Evergreen State College's Geoduck represents the spirit of the college, chosen at a time when Evergreen's experimental concepts were viewed as revolutionary:
- Versatility & flexibility—Evergreen can change to fit the needs of its students.
- Vulnerable & non-aggressive—Evergreen does not use competition to push academic achievement. Instead of grades, we have evaluations and an environment that encourages students to help each other rather than compete for the highest rank and grade. The opposite of big sports obsession at traditional colleges.
- Permanence—Evergreen is like a rock. It won't go anywhere. Geoducks are rooted to the same spot forever.
Speedy Through the Ages
Factual or humorous, rustic or technical, sometimes even with a little bit of glam, Speedy has gone through many phases of life. Scroll through this slideshow to see our humble mascot's development.

The mother accused of neglecting her two daughters and leaving them in a car in Marysville has pleaded not guilty.
Christina Carlson entered not guilty pleas on two counts of criminal endangerment and two counts of failure to provide care in Tulalip Tribal Court Thursday.
Carlson wore a blanket over her head and shoulders throughout the hearing. A judge ordered her face not be shown.
On Monday, police found Carlson's 17-month-old daughter Chantal dead in a car. Her 2-year-old daughter was found unconscious and is being treated at SeattleChildren's Hospital.
According to charging documents, the children were neglected between September 19 and October 8.
If convicted, Carlson faces as long as four years in jail and thousands of dollars in fines. Her bond was set at $75,000.
Child Protective Services and Tulalip Tribal Police conducted a joint investigation prior to the incident, but children were not removed from their mother's custody.

Jetty is a project at the Eclipse Foundation.
|Jetty Powered:
private support for your internal/customer projects ... custom extensions and distributions ... versioned snapshots for indefinite support ... scalability guidance for your apps and Ajax/Comet projects ... development services from 1 day to full product delivery
What is this ?
J2SE 6 ships with an embedded web server that handles Endpoint publishing. This web server can be replaced by Jetty thanks to the contributed Java HTTP Server SPI implementation.
- svn
- mvn ( preferably at least 2.0.4 )
- jdk 1.6
Obtaining the Source
The project uses Subversion as it's source code control system.
The source can be checked out anonymously using:
The project uses maven2 as its build tool.
Go to the top level directory of the project and type:
This will build jetty6 locally, copy the jars and artifacts into the correct directories and put snapshot versions of the artifacts into your local maven repository.
Copy the freshly-built j2se6-6.1-SNAPSHOT.jar archive to $JETTY_HOME/lib/ext. As long as this JAR is on the classpath, the JVM should pick up the Jetty implementation instead of the default one.
By default, an independent Jetty server will be started no matter if there is already an instance running. This is a good choice if you just want to write a standalone application publishing web services via Jetty's web stack.
You can however tell the provider to reuse an existing server by setting the static server property on the provider's implementation in the jetty.xml configuration file:
The provider will then add new contexts to the specified server eventually binding a new Connector if the port specified in the endpoint is not yet bound by Jetty.

Inadequate policies, institutions, and rural infrastructure lead to agricultural markets that do not function efficiently. As a consequence, the poor pay more for their food and receive less for their produce. To enhance the efficiency of markets, and support their development, the Markets, Trade, and Institutions Division analyzes agricultural market and trade reforms, crop and income diversification, postharvest activity, and agroindustry.
Project Spotlight
- Mitigating aflatoxin exposure to improve child growth in eastern Kenya
- A New Approach to Weather Insurance
- Using Stochastic Profit Frontier Analysis to Construct Typologies of Rural Micro-Regions
- A Poverty Module of the MIRAGE Model of the World Economy
- Markets for High-Value Commodities in Indonesia
- Contracting Out of Poverty
- Aflacontrol: Improving Lives of People in Africa
Countries moving from a subsistence or centrally controlled economy to a commercial market-oriented economy face a difficult period of transition. This transition is typically accompanied by changes in product mix, sources of income, the structure of employment and the productivity of labor. The prospects for reducing rural poverty, assuring food security, and improving rural livelihoods depend on how governments manage this change.
The Markets, Trade, and Institutions Division seeks to understand how countries can best develop markets, institutions and infrastructure in ways that contribute to agricultural growth, help alleviate poverty and ensure food security for all.

I had mono when I was 16. I'm now 25. Is it possible for me to get mono again?
- Theon
While it is possible, someone who has been infected with mononucleosis (which is caused by the Epstein-Barr virus) usually won't get the symptoms of mono again from this virus.
However, the symptoms of mono — which include tiredness, fever, sore throat, and loss of appetite — are common to many other medical conditions. So chances are, if you've been diagnosed with mono before and are now experiencing some of these symptoms, you have another infection or other medical condition. To be sure, see your doctor for an accurate diagnosis.

"Pet Cot"
Love the frame but the fabric is awful. I ordered 5 of these and the mesh center came loose from the rest of the bed in less than a month regardless of size and I had no dog over 30 lbs. using the beds. Very disappointed but will make my own fabric center out of a sturdier fabric to use with the frame.
"Have ordered 2..both fell. apart"
I ordered the medium for my 62lb English Bully. She LOVES IT. The first bed we ordered lasted a few months until our bully discovered that rolling around on her back on it causes her coarse hair to stick thru the center mesh panel, which must feel really good like a fabulous scratch. I got a replacement and reinforced the seam for the center panel, unfortunately, it only lasted 2 weeks before that seam began to rip, just like the first one. Luckily, before puttinfg the 2nd bed together, I had traced the top for a quick pattern. The top I made lacks the fabulous mesh panel, but the bed has lasted for months this time. Usually, I would rate something that fell apart twice, so quickly, much lower, but I do blame my zealous bully for treating it too exuberantly. I did have good customer service. I regret that my dog will miss out on the benefit of the cooling mesh center, but she loves my home-sewn option and I think its the best we'll be able to do. The frame is excellent.
"Dogs Love It."
What a pleasure to set up. Goes together easily and looks great. My Goldens and Vizsla love to lounge on them. Must get another one! I like the fact that the feet are plastic and wont rust like the other cot I have as these beds are used outdoors beds.

Lady Falcon Softball Opens Up League Play with Pair of Losses at King
March 10, 2013
BRISTOL, T.N. - Host King College used a fast start in game one followed by a comeback win in game two to sweep Pfeiffer University in Conference Carolinas softball action on Sunday afternoon. The Tornado improve to 9-14 overall, 4-0 in league play after Sunday while the Lady Falcons drop to 7-11, 0-2.
A three-run triple in a four-run first got King off to their quick start while a two-run double in the second capped off a three-run frame. Pfeiffer would manage just three hits in game one, two by Celia Dew and the other a double off the bat of Sam Jarmusch.
In game two, Pfeiffer took a 1-0 lead on a two-out single to center by Sadie Saine. Saine's hit would bring in Lindsey Russell who singled earlier in the frame. King again came back to score two in the fourth using a Lady Falcon error before adding insurance in the fifth. Pfeiffer picked up six hits in game two, two by Hannah Jackson.
The Lady Falcons are right back to action on Monday hosting Barton before welcoming Erskine and Coker later in the week.

Effective Leadership
Prof. Martin Chemers has been at Claremont McKenna College for only three years, and yet he has already left an indelible stamp on the institution. During his first year here he was the recipient of the G. David Huntoon Senior Teaching Award. Dr. Chemers is the Henry R. Kravis Professor of Leadership and Organizational Psychology at CMC.
Since receiving his PhD in social psychology at the University of Illinois in 1968, he has taught at the universities of Delaware, Washington, and Utah, where he was chair of psychology. He is an active researcher, and has published numerous articles and books on the topic of leadership. His most recent book, Improving Leadership Effectiveness: The Leader Match Concept (1976), has been translated into German, Japanese, Swedish, and Portuguese. He has consulted widely on leadership and organizational practice for such clients as the U.S. ski team, the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education, and the U.S. Bureau of Mines.
Prof. Chemers will surely make a lasting impression as he leads a discussion in effective leadership with the class of 1994.
All freshmen are signed up for the 5:30 reception and dinner preceding Dr. Chemers' address. If a freshman is unable to attend the dinner, please stop by the Athenaeum between 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. prior to September 12, and let us know. You will not be able to eat in Collins unless your name is removed from the Athenaeum list.
The U.S. Automobile Industry in the 1990s
Maryann Keller is a highly respected automobile analyst. She is also a widely read columnist for business trade publications and appears regularly on PBS' "Wall Street Week," as well as morning news shows discussing the current state of affairs in Detroit.
Her book, Rude Awakening: The Rise, Fall, and Struggle for Recovery of General Motors, was published by William Morrow and Company in 1989. This book takes a hard look at the once-unparalleled leader of an Industry-General Motors-a company that defines in microcosm American industry in the 1980s and how that industry must approach the 21st century.
Although Ms. Keller is a severe critic of the Big Three-and GM in particular-she frequently speaks before gatherings of Detroit executives. It was she who first warned that the Japanese threat was far more serious than the Big Three were willing to admit.
Maryann Keller is a managing director and automobile analyst with the brokerage firm of Furman Selz Mayer Dietz and Birney, Inc. Prior to that Ms. Keller was a first vice-president at Paine Webber Mitchell Hutchins.
Please join us for an informative evening with Maryann Keller. If you wish to attend the 5:30 reception and 6:00 dinner prior to the address at 7:00, please fill out the reservation form accompanying this Fortnightly.
Diversity in America
Linda Chavez comes to CMC as the first of four speakers to discuss the problems of preserving the variety of cultural and ethnic experience in America. The series is sponsored by the Gould Center in conjunction with its seminar on diversity led by Prof. Robert Faggen.
Chavez has been actively involved in the controversial debates about the social, economic, and political integration of Hispanics in American society. As staff director of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights (1983-85), Chavez conducted studies on discrimination based on race, sex, and national origin. She has been president of U.S. English, a public interest research group addressing the question of bilingualism in American education, and a political commentator for the Chicago Sun Times and American Politics. In 1986 Chavez was the Republican nominee for the U.S. Senate in Maryland. Her forthcoming book, At the Crossroads: Hispanics in the United States, is the result of research she has directed over the past several years as a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research.
She will speak in the Athenaeum at 7:00 p.m., following a 5:30 reception and 6:00 dinner.
Open Forum Lunch

Public Figures and the Humanities: My Homer
DONALD McKENNA
The Family of Benjamin Z. Gould Center for Humanistic Studies presents a unique series during the fall 1990 semester. A paramount concern of the Gould Center is to promote interaction between the humanities and public affairs. The "Public Figures and the Humanities" series represents a new approach to the influences that humanists, civic and corporate leaders, and members of the professions exert upon each other, and the affect they have upon our attitudes and the way we live. The series' speakers will discuss some of the classics of Western literature, but they will not, in their remarks, approach these works in a conventional, scholarly manner. Rather, their presentations will be more personal, describing what these great works have meant to them.
The series begins with Donald McKenna, an original trustee of Claremont McKenna College and the man for whom our institution is named. Mr. McKenna graduated from Pomona College and was a master's student in literature at Harvard.

Mr. McKenna leads off the series with "My Homer" on September 19 at the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum.
Those interested in the relevance great books have to their personal and professional lives will find Mr. McKenna's address engaging and edifying. Please use the form to sign up for the reception and dinner prior to the 7:00 talk.
Economics in Perspective: A Critical History
John Kenneth Galbraith is presently Paul M. Warburg Professor of Economics Emeritus at Harvard. Professor Galbraith was deputy administrator of the Office of Price Administration in the early 1940s and was principal organizer of the wartime system of price control, which he headed until 1943. In 1945 he became a director of the U.S. Strategic Bombing Survey, which corrected wartime claims about the accomplishments of air warfare. He later held other public offices in the State Department and elsewhere, and was awarded the Medal of Freedom.
Galbraith served on the campaign staff of Adlai Stevenson in 1952 and 1956; was the chairman of the Economic Advisory Committee of the Democratic Advisory Council from 1956 to 1960; served on John F. Kennedy's 1960 convention staff; and was U.S. ambassador to India from 1961 to 1963.
Galbraith's two most recent books are a history of Economics, Economics in Perspective: A Critical History (1987), and Capitalism, Communism and Coexistence: From the Bitter Past to a Better Prospect (1988), which he co-authored with Stanislav Menshikov for simultaneous publication in the United States and the U.S.S.R. He is the author of numerous other books and is well known to readers of The New Yorker, The New York Times Book Review, Book World, and other journals for his articles and book reviews.
Dr. Galbraith is one of America's leading economists. His address, "Economics in Perspective: A Critical History," begins at 7:00 in McKenna Auditorium. Please use the enclosed form, if you wish to join us at the reception and dinner prior to Dr. Galbraith's speech.
Why Men Are the Way They Are
Attention women! Have you ever asked yourself, Why are men like that? Men, have you ever wondered. What do women really want from men? If you are ready to probe these and other questions about men, join us for Dr. Warren Farrell's discussion on Wednesday, September 26.
Dr. Farrell is the author of Why Men Are the Way They Are (1986), a national best seller that won two national awards and was published in more than 50 countries in seven languages. The New York Post called it "the most important book ever written about love, sex, and intimacy." He is also the author of The Liberated Man (1974).
Dr. Farrell received his PhD in political science from New York University. He is the only man to serve three times on the board of the National Organization for Women in New York City.
Dr. Farrell has taught at the School of Medicine at the University of California, San Diego, as well as at Georgetown University, Rutgers, and elsewhere.
Warren has appeared on numerous TV shows. He has been featured in Time, People, The New York Times, Psychology Today, and other leading publications. The Chicago Tribune described Dr. Farrell as "the Gloria Steinem of Men's Liberation."
Warren is an engaging speaker. His address begins at 7:00 p.m. Please use the enclosed coupon, if you wish to join us for the reception and dinner prior to the discussion.
You've Come the Wrong Way, Baby
More young women are smoking, and cigarette companies are pursuing the gain with advertisements that show smokers as slim, sexy, and attractive. Dr. Jean Kilbourne is a critic fuming about the opportunistic way the advertising media promotes smoking.
This becomes Dr. Kilbourne's third appearance at the Athenaeum. She is an extremely lively and provocative speaker. An internationally recognized authority on the media and sex roles, she has lectured extensively throughout North America and abroad.
She was recently invited by President Bush to assist in the development of a plan to combat the deadly problem of drunk driving in the United States.
Kilbourne received her BA in English literature from Wellesley College and her PhD in education from Boston University. Following her graduation from Wellesley, she spent three years in Europe, working for the British Broadcasting Corporation in London and for a French film company in Paris.
She is a visiting scholar at Wellesley College and is on the board of directors of the National Council on Alcoholism.
Join us at Dr. Kilbourne's address and slide presentation titled "You've Come the Wrong Way, Baby." Your dinner reservation may be made by filling out the enclosed coupon.
The Sunday brunch extravaganza is here! The first Sunday brunch takes place September 30 at 11:00 a.m. Sunday brunch only comes once a month, is extremely popular, and fills up quickly. Return the enclosed coupon as early as possible, so you don't miss this delectable event. Sunday brunch is limited to CMC students and one guest per student. CMC faculty and staff are invited, of course, and encouraged to attend.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Athenaeum project at Claremont McKenna College. We began September 1970 in the President's House, which is now the Admission Office. In September 1983 the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum building opened. During the past 20 years we have grown from dinners of 30 (twice a week) to lunches and dinners of 30 to 200 (four times a week).
Our program this semester is ambitious and varied. A big thank you goes to the numerous faculty and students who have made suggestions toward the fall schedule. The spring schedule is wide open and ready for your contributions. Many of our guests come to the Athenaeum because someone who knows them personally has invited that guest. Jesse Jackson came to the Athenaeum because an alumnus worked for him; William F. Buckley, Jr., and William Styron came because faculty knew them personally; Mortimer Adler joined us and visited his son at CMC at the same time. Please stop by my office with your speaker suggestions.
Students wishing to sit at the head table with the guest speaker should contact one of our Athenaeum fellows-Barbara Clark, Gena Morgan, or LaTanya Wright.
I encourage you to make a habit of joining us at the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum, where the food is delicious and the speakers are enlightening. Please always sign up for dinner, but you may simply drop by for the speaker's address, which begins at 7:00 p.m. (or sometimes a little before) and ends at 8:00 p.m.
In accordance with the Drug Free Schools and Communities Act Amendments of 1989, the Athenaeum will serve wine only to individuals who are over 21.
Preventing Cruelty to Animals
A new addition to our Athenaeum schedule is Dr. John F. Kullberg, president of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
As pro-animal sentiment builds across the country, John F. Kullberg is poised to build bridges between the animal rights movement and mainstream America. As president of America's first humane society-Dr. Kullberg has worked since 1978 to extend the ASPCA's activities into every area of animal protection.
Kullberg's seven years in a Catholic religious order helped nurture an ethical framework for his later involvement in animal rights issues. His career as a high school and college educator and university administrator prepared him for the educational and administrative challenges inherent in running one of the world's largest humane societies.
A native of Rhode Island, Dr. Kullberg has a bachelor's degree from The Catholic University of America, a master's degree in English literature from the University of Rhode Island and a doctorate in education from Columbia University.
Mr. Kullberg's address is entitled Preventing Cruelty to Animals. His book, The Animal Rights Handbook, Everyday Ways to Save Animal Lives (1990), may be purchased at the Huntley Bookstore. This book kicks off the 125th anniversary of the ASPCA.
If you wish to join us for the dinner prior to Mr. Kullberg's 7:00 address please fill out the reservation attached to this notice.

Junior forward Will Felder paced the RedHawks with a career-high-tying 20 points. He also scored 20 points in a game while at St. Francis before transferring to Miami. Felder was 10-of-14 from the floor (.714), which is the fifth time this season he has shot 60.0 percent or better from the field.
Felder's 20-point game marked the second time in as many games the RedHawks have had a 20-point scoring effort (junior guard Allen Roberts had 22 at Buffalo on Jan. 12). It is the sixth time this season a RedHawk has hit the 20-point mark.
Freshman Geovonie McKnight had two huge defensive plays in the last 1:37, picking up a big defensive rebound at 1:37 and taking a charge with 54 seconds left. McKnight also came up with a crucial steal at Buffalo on Jan. 12 in the last seconds of the game to preserve the win.
Junior center Drew McGhee recorded his second double-figure scoring effort of the season, both coming in the last four games, with a season-high 14 points. McGhee was 5-of-7 from the floor and is 20-of-26 from the field in the RedHawks' last eight games (.769).
Miami had struggled on the boards as of late, but the RedHawks managed to outrebound the Falcons 24-21. MU hauled in 10 boards on the offensive glass, the most since its 10 vs. Wilmington on Dec. 30.
Both teams shot an impressive percentage from the field. The RedHawks shot 56.5 percent in the opening half and 54.9 percent for the game. The Falcons shot 64.0 percent in the first half and 57.8 percent for the game.

In announcing the Affordable Excellence initiative at Roger Williams University in October 2012, President Don Farish launched this President's Blog as a key tool in starting a broad conversation, both on campus and beyond, on access to and affordability of American higher education.
In my last post, I criticized wealthy campuses for focusing too much on the size of their endowments and the returns on their investments, and not enough on making their campuses financially accessible to more students. In this post, I will suggest why they strayed, and why it is important that they rediscover a more socially useful path.
It all begins with an analysis of mission and purpose. Private colleges were established in this country to meet the need of various religious denominations to prepare members of the clergy here in the colonies, rather than having to import them from Europe. A number of institutions still retain their religious affiliation, although very few of them limit their educational efforts to the preparation of clergy. However, most private colleges today have at best a distant relationship to a particular religious denomination, or have become entirely secular, and their educational programs have expanded dramatically to include all of the traditional arts and sciences, and very often professional programs as well.

Though Hurricane Sandy seems like a long time ago to many of us, many of those who lost everything to the storm are still just beginning to piece their lives back together. At the ASPCA, we're still working with animal welfare groups and individuals who suffered as a result of Sandy, and less than a month has passed since our special facility for Sandy pets closed.
Since then , we've seen many Sandy strays find new homes and hundreds of Sandy pets reunited with their families. (To see some of those, visit our Facebook album of reunion photos.)
If we could tell you all their stories, we could, because if you give to the ASPCA you're responsible in part for each one. For now, we'd like to tell you one—Magnus and Aheber's. Please watch their video to see how you helped them.
Thank you for giving to the ASPCA and helping us help animals like Magnus. If you're not already a member, please consider making a gift now. You'll help us be prepared to go wherever animals need us, whenever they need us.
This story just touched my heart. If that gentleman was displaced in sandy and needs an apartment. I have several available and will take his sweet friend.
I'm glad he hadaplace to keep his fog till he can find anew home, but you could see the sadness in his eyes. It brought tears to my eyes. I hope they can be back together soon.
this video brought tears to my eyes-a lucky dog to have such a devoted owner, and a lucky man to have such a devoted dog.
I want to say thank you to the aspca for providing these families an option through the hard times. Also I want to say, thank you to this Magnus's owner for remembering this wonderful soul even through hard times. Really, many owners abandon pets when going through hard times. Also, you are the living proof that no matter what breed the animal is, an animal raised in a loving caring home is a loving caring animal. You can see that this dog was raised with so much love and gentleness. Many people should learn from you!!! I pray for the two of you to be reunited very soon! you both deserve to be with each other!!!
I would like to know the final outcome of this wonderful relationship of Magnus and Ahebar. Please post more about this story as time goes by. Thank you! It is very touching....
Thank you ASPCA for all the wonderful work you have done in assisting both human and animal victims of Sandy. I wish I had the money to donate but sadly that is not the case. We do have 3 rescues and I would highly recommend to people that they explore this route when they want a new furbaby in their lives. PLS also remember that senior dogs bring so many special rewards to the families they adopt :)
Hope to see a follow up when Magnus gets to finally GO HOME.
Please read our stories about our experiences with Smilin' Pit Bull Rescue in Buffalo New York and the animal abuser who runs it. http://www.facebook.com/groups/387337678021545/

Comments about WTB Nano TCS Tubeless 29" Tire:
This is the first time I have set up tubeless on my 29er HT and so far, so good. The Bronson is a very good all around tire. Prior to my purchase I actually spoke with a rep at WTB and discussed the type of riding I do...mostly hard pack, loose over hard pack, singles and doubles and fire roads in the local mountains & canyons here in So Cal. The WTB rep recommended the Bronson 2.2 front and WTB Nano 2.1 rear setup for lots of grip and hook up in the back and great handling up front. The Bronson handles and takes curves nicely and doesn't want to slip out from under you when you suddenly hit some deeper loose stuff on a rapid descent. I am using the WTB Bronson front/Nano rear setup with WTB Stryker wheels and I really like the upgrade. My rig feels lighter and more nimble. I would definitely recommend these products! Great job Jenson and WTB.

Tewis de Bruyn will start at flyhalf when the Free State Cheetahs tackle the Golden Lions in Bloemfontein this weekend.
Head coach Naka Drotske has relegated Sias Ebersohn to the bench, and has decided to go with De Bruyn – a specialist scrumhalf – at pivot. Ebersohn has been out of favour at the Bloemfontein union for most of the season.
This is one of the three changes to the Cheetahs' starting line-up.
The other two are tweaks to the pack, as No 8 Hendro Scholtz and lock Francois Uys replace Davon Raubenheimer and Andries Ferreira respectively.
Free State Cheetahs – 15 Hennie Daniller, 14 Nico Scheepers, 13 Robert Ebersohn (c), 12 Andries Strauss, 11 Raymond Rhule, 10 Tewis du Bruyn, 9 Sarel Pretorius, 8 Hendro Scholtz, 7 Lappies Labuschagne, 6 Heinrich Brussow, 5 Izak van der Westhuizen, 4 Francois Uys, 3 Marcel van der Merwe, 2 Hercu Liebenberg, 1 Schalk van der Merwe.

He got beat up enough after 2 games in Summer League to need to sit out the last 3 games. He's young and still has a lot of maturing/growing to do both physically and mentally. I think one of the 247 podcasts pointed out that Tony Parker took about 3 years before he became trusted enough to earn starters minutes.
My Anthony Davis website: http://thebrow.uphero.com/
I honestly don't see the point of Vasquez starting. This team is rebuilding and not in contention so I don't see the reasoning of stunting Rivers development by giving Vasquez more minutes over him when Rivers is the better talent?
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
Starting him too early will make it alot more difficult to get rid of some of the bad habits he has. Easier to develop him off the bench where there isn't as much pressure. Plus, Vasquez is a solid PG who is young as well. He's ahead of Rivers right now and deserves to start over him. Starting Rivers right away and letting him struggle early and often will affect his confidence.
I get off line for like 7 hours and yall go crazy about my last post. I know kemba was awful last year but i thought he would win it. Norris cole is terrible because he hasn't had a training camp yet. Did you see him in the finals??? He was a gem that we found in the late first round

I was at least expecting a source with an absolute statement as the topic.
"I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."
The dude couldn't handle summer league at this point, physically so why would he be allowed to start?

Besides, there are players other than Austin Rivers on the roster, and it'll probably be better for their development to play with someone who can set up and run a conventional offense. Rivers is certainly not that right now, and he's a long way from being that. For guys like Aminu and especially Davis to develop, they need someone who can get them the ball in places where they can be effective. Austin River was a poor passer in college, and Vasquez assists at one of the better rates in the NBA. It's not like he's some ancient, on his last legs vet, either. He's gotten better over the past two years and he showed real improvement on his jumpshot in international play. Rivers will get enough minutes to develop regardless due to the lack of a 4th guy who will demand them, but it makes no sense to me to put him in the starting lineup ahead of a better player who understands how to get teammates involved. Maybe Rivers develops that, but most smart objective observers recognize the Rivers-to-PG project has a long way to go, if he ever gets there.
Make sure to bump this thread when he starts opening day gezzzzzzz
Its my opinion that Austin Rivers will not be "The Standard" 6th man for the Hornets.
More time has been spent on this thread talking about whether or not Rivers will start over Vazquez. There's a chance that Rivers starts, and if he does he wouldn be the Hornet's 6th man. Done and done.
If Vazquez starts he will facilitate the offense. He'll line up the plays, penetrate and kick out the ball, run the picks and reset broken plays.
Eric Gordon will execute the offense. He'll catch and shoot, create his own shot and draw the defense.
Gordon is the best player for the Hornets. He will not be the first Hornet going to the bench.
Vazquez will be instrumental to the first quarter offense. If Rivers comes in for Vazquez he will alter the way the offense operates, especially since he is modeling himself after Westbrook an attacking high volume shooting point guard. To alter the offense so drastically so early is risky. I doubt that will be a regular rotation for the Hornets.
They might take out Aminu and put in Rivers creating a 3 guard line up. "Going Small" That could leave the Hornets vulnerable to defensive mismatches, which makes it unlikely to be regular procedure.
The biggest question about the Horneys starting line up isn't at the point its at center. Anthony Davis is a better player than Lopez but he might not be able to match up against some of the big men in the league. The Hornets will probably vary their line up a bit. Which means if their line up isn't working at first they might have to adjust. This change up will mainly occur at the forward and center position. This also makes it highly unlikely that Rivers comes in consistenrly as the 6th man.
On top of everything I've said, if Rivers comes off the bench he will have a lot of competition for that 6th spot. He could be going up against the likes of Anderson, Lopez, Smith, Mason jr, Aminu, and all of those people have one thing Rivers doesn't, experience playing in the NBA.
I've layed out a persuasive argument. For all those unhappy that I titled this thread like it was fact and not opinion I say, "You are right, but I challenge you to defeat my opinion with your own."

WORST: This Diane von Furstenberg gown looked like it belonged in the jungle, not on Jessica Biel on a red carpet!
BEST:Jessica's makeup and hair, however, looked flawless.
BEST: It is not surprising that Sarah Jessica Parker chose to honor her pal Alexander McQueen by wearing a gown from one of his last ever collections. We are obsessed with this purple and pink gown, which she paired with balanced cuffs and a grey clutch.
BEST: SJP added boho bracelets and a grey shimmering bag to her AM gown.
BEST: Gwyneth Paltrow showed off her flawless bod in custom coutured Michael Kors gown, which she paired with a matching MK crocodile clutch and Fred Leighton bling.
BEST: Gwyneth sported a perky and perfect ponytail.
BEST: Dakota Fanning showed off her impossibly perfect legs in a flirty Marchesa bridal mini, which she paired with Brian Atwood pumps.
BEST: Dakota looked absolutely gorgeous, her eyes lined in white shimmer.
WORST: Emilie de Ravin's Max Azria mini failed to do anything for her.
BEST: But we loved Emile's makeup look. It was tres Valley of the Dolls!
WORST: We aren't saying Kate Mara looked awful, but we think she could have done a little better than this Zac Posen Pre-Fall 2010 little red riding hood dress! We love her Brian Atwood Cristal Pumps!
BEST: Maggie Grace showed off her bombshell bod in a Notte by Marchesa frock, which featured an embellished neckline.
BEST: Rachel Weisz looked powerfully purple in a Jason Wu Resort 20100 mini.
WORST: We didn't love Rachel Roy's look. In fact, we didn't even like it.
BEST: Supermodel Hilary Rhoada looked beyond beautiful in a Rachel Roy gown, which featured one embellished shoulder.
WORST: Alison Pill did not look dressed up enough in a printed wrap dress and Brian Atwood
WORST: We love Molly Sims' shimmering mini, but paired with glitter pumps and pastel jewelry? Not such a great look.
BEST: Broooke Shields looked sophisticated in a nude J. Mendel wrap gown.
WORST: Daisy Lowe's Dolce & Gabbana mini looks like something Bam Bam from The Flinstones would wear!
WORST: Michelle Trachtenberg slightly missed the mark in her Rebecca Taylor. If the shimmering, navy gown was 1Ž2 inch longer we would have loved it, but it was an awkward length, and her sandals peeping out of the bottom. Ugg!
BEST: Victoria's Secret babe Doutzen Kroes rocked a perfectly pin-tucked one-shouldered black gown with nude Christian Louboutins.
BEST: Supermodel Hana Soukupova looked babelicious in a cream hand embroidered Marchesa mini.

BEST: Whitney Port stunned in a liquid metallic David Meister gown, which featured a sexy front slit.
BEST: Jessica Stam rocked a statement, chunky necklace with her sheer-skirted black strapless for a sexy and stylish look.
WORST: Diane von Furstenberg, in one of her own gowns presumably, could not pull off the intense pattern.
WORST: Alexa Chung looked angelic in an ivory Marc Jacobs frock from the Fall 2010 Collection, but her square heeled shoes were a bit grannyish!

Another "Controversial Issues" Bill
House Bill 1172 is scheduled to be considered by the Public Education Committee of the Texas House of Representatives on April 22.

Tennessee District Rejects Textbooks Over Evolution
The Blount County Board of Education rejected the adoption of three new biology textbooks because they present evolution but do not present creationism, The Daily Times, Maryville, Tennessee, reported on April 5.
The vote to reject the textbooks passed 2 to 1, with four board members declining to vote. Board members Mike Treadway and Jean Simerly voted to deny the texts and Don McNelly voted to approve them.
Louisiana House Resolution Urges Rejection of "Certain" Textbooks
On April 1, Louisiana Representative Ben Nevers introduced House Concurrent Resolution 50, which "[e]ncourages city, parish, and other local public school systems to refrain from purchasing certain textbooks."
The resolution states that "in the effort to encourage the development of students' critical thinking skills, city, parish, and other local public school systems should refrain from purchasing textbooks that do not present a balanced view of the various theories relative to the origin of life but rather refer to one theory as proven fact."

This is Part One of a two-part series.
STANTONSBURG — A hog farm slapped with violations a year ago may now be facing a lawsuit.
Stantonsburg Farm, at 2938 Sand Pit Road near Stantonsburg, is allegedly continuing to dispense contaminants into a blue line waterway leading into Contentnea Creek in Greene County, to wetlands adjacent to the Neuse River Basin and eventually the Neuse River.
A notice of intent to sue — from the Waterkeeper Alliance and signed by Jessica Culpepper, a food safety and health attorney with Public Justice in Washington, D.C. — was sent to a number of representatives for the farm on March 13.
Those listed in the notice of intent include Robert Manly IV and Gregg Schmidt of Murphy-Brown, a subsidiary of Smithfield Foods; Wendell Murphy Jr., president of Stantonsburg Farm and manager of Murphy Family Ventures, the Wallace-based owner of the farm, along with Environmental Manager A.J. Linton; and Certified Operator Michael Griffin and Manager R.O. Britt of the farm.
If they do not respond or bring the farm into compliance with the Clean Water Act within 60 days, the Waterkeeper Alliance will file a citizen's suit seeking civil penalties for each of the violations, according to the notice.
Larry Baldwin is the N.C. concentrated animal feeding operator, or CAFO, coordinator with the Waterkeeper Alliance in New Bern.
"(Stantonsburg Farm representatives) have 60 days to notify us as to what their intent is," he said.
David May, regional supervisor of the N.C. Division of Water Resources in Washington, said his department's task is to oversee the farm in relation to its permit.
"A lawsuit filed outside of our agency, right now, we wouldn't be an active party," he said.
Christine Lawson is an engineer and acting supervisor of the animal feeding operations branch in Raleigh.
"The department could take an independent action," she said, "But I don't have any knowledge of whether or not that is the case."
According to state regulations, it is illegal to discharge hog waste into waterways.
The Neuse Riverkeeper Foundation, under the umbrella of the Waterkeeper Alliance, has performed routine testing for the past year, as well as leading up to a major spill incident on March 15, 2013.
"So, over the course of the year, our samples are showing that there's a continuous discharge," Baldwin said. "So, we're basically saying that they are not properly managing their waste applications."
Every hog farm has a management plan which explains when and how much the farm can spray the fields with waste from its lagoon, based on rainfall and the type of crops grown, Baldwin said.
The state regulates the number of pigs each farm can have at one time, according to the permit issued to the farm. Stantonsburg Farm is permitted for 4,800 pigs.
"That's the equivilent of 48,000 people," Baldwin said, adding a study done by UNC-Chapel Hill found the raitio of waste from hogs to people is 10-1.
He said, "If we had a community of 48,000 people, would we allow the community to collect their waste in a big cespool and then periodically spread it out on the ground? It wouldn't happen."
The farm recently added an eighth hog house. But May said Marlene Salyer, an environmental senior specialist, inspected the Stantonsburg site on March 19 and said the farm had not exceded the number of swine allowed.
Routine inspections are performed, an average, once a year under a "short-term notification," May said, adding that ensures the inspector can gain access to key people and records.
For a discharge violation on March 15, Stantonsburg Farm was assessed on May 21 a civil penalty of $5,236.81, which included $736.81 for enforcement costs. But the amount was reduced to $2,986.81 because the farm took action to clean up the spill, May said.
Regulations require at least 19 inches of freeboard — the minimum number of inches that are required from the surface of the lagoon to the top rim — to prevent overflow.
The farm also received a violation notice on Jan. 21 for a freeboard level of 14 inches in the lagoon on Dec. 31, and a notice of intent on March 3 to assess another civil penalty for a freeboard level of 11.5 inches on Feb. 19.
With heavy rainfall or hurricane event, the state may deem high lagoon levels an emergency situation and allow a farm to pump waste out of the lagoon and spray the fields, Baldwin said.
It becomes an environmental issue, as well as a public health concern, he added.
Lagoons in the state generate nearly 12 million gallons of waste a year and waste is sprayed on nearly 86 acres, he said.
Many residents in Eastern North Carolina use well water for drinking and bathing. So groundwater, which isn't far below the soil surface, may become susceptible to contaminants.
The Waterkeeper Alliance and Neuse Riverkeeper Foundation — both funded by grants and donations — are currently in litigation with a Jones County hog farm. They have sent notices of intent to three hog farms, including Stantonsburg Farm.
Jim Kellenberger, Foundation president, said his organization hopes to work with officials of Stantonsburg Farm to address the "serious issues."
"However," he said, "we must take action to address the mismanagement of swine waste and pollution discharges at this facility, and if the facility is unwilling to implement sound swine waste management practices, we will then be forced to file suit to enforce the law and protect the citizens of North Carolina."
Stantonsburg Farm did not return a phone call. Murphy Family Ventures referred to its attorney, who had not responded before press time.
