Baseball Surrenders Early Lead; Falls Late to #13 Francis Marion 11-3
March 16, 2010
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Francis Marion freshman Don Sandifer (Bamberg, SC) started and finished on the mound as the 13th-ranked Patriots claimed an 11-3 win over Pfeiffer University in baseball action on Tuesday afternoon. Francis Marion moves their record to 18-5 overall while the Falcons dip to 13-16.
A Barrett Kleinknecht (Florence, SC) double put the Patriots on the board in the third as Graham Couch (Bishopville, SC) scored. Pfeiffer bounced back with two in the third and one in the fourth to grab a 3-1 advantage.
Myles Pearl (High Point, NC) brought in Carlos Badillo (Gurabo, PR) with a two-run blast in the third, while J.T. Pope (Mebane, NC) singled home Eric Shoemaker (Huntersville, NC) in the fourth. Francis Marion would go on to score the next 10 unanswered for the 11-3 victory.
A five-run fifth started with an RBI-single by Alex Lee (Blythewood, SC). Chris Honeycutt (Fort Mill, SC) and Tyler Cappelmann (Sumter, SC) would later pick up run-scoring singles before the final pair of runs came around on a Falcons throwing miscue.
Two in the seventh, thanks to a Jacob Wallace (Moore, SC) double and sacrifice fly off the bat of Josh Biggers (Southlake, TX), put the visitors up five before their final three came in the eighth. Honeycutt and Cappelmann again delivered with RBI-singles as the fourth and final error of the day by Pfeiffer led to the Patriots final run.
Cappelmann was perfect at the plate going 5-for-5 with a pair of RBI and run scored in the win. Honeycutt followed with a 3-for-5 outing at the plate with two RBI and three runs scored. Pfeiffer was paced by Shoemakers 3-for-5 day as Sandifer surrendered just nine hits with no walks and three strikeouts in the win.
The Falcons hit the road for a Wednesday night contest against another top-25 team. Pfeiffer heads to #19 UNC-Pembroke for a 6:00 p.m. first pitch.

Police arrested a man who robbed a bank in north Seattle, took a man hostage, then crashed his car after a police pursuit.
Seattle Police say the man went into the Wells Fargo Bank at Wells Fargo Bark at N. 132nd St. and Aurora Ave. N. at about 11 a.m., claimed he had explosives, and demanded money.
After receiving money, the suspect left the bank and car-jacked a truck.
Jake Gift was in line at the drive through at nearby Gourmet Latte.
He just walked up, jumped in my truck and was like drive, said Gift.
His heart raced, but Gift kept his cool.
If anything I thought try to befriend the guy to make sure he wasn't going to hurt me, he said.
The robber sounded desperate.
The whole time he was saying someone had his wife and kidnapped and that he needed 120 grand to get them back, said Gift.
The suspect also had a strange device strapped to his body.
It was a black tube looking thing ... had some wires in it, said Gift.
They eventually pulled over, where the suspect had stashed a car.
He kind of just let me go, said Gift.
The suspect then took off. The King County Sheriff s Office spotted the suspect and he led them on a pursuit.
The suspect wrecked the vehicle near the Edmonds ferry dock.
The man claimed to have explosive devices and the King County Sheriff s Office bomb squad was called.
The FBI and ATF were also called in.
Police say a suspicious device that was found was not a bomb.
The 30-year-old suspect was interviewed by detectives and was booked into the King County Jail.

Party Pictures
San Francisco jumped into the art-fair game with all three feet last week, hosting two competing commercial fairs, the San Francisco Fine Art Fair and Art MRKT, and even making room for ArtPadSF, an alternative fair, all running May 17-20, 2012.
ArtPad, now in its second year, returned to co-founder Chip Conley's Phoenix hotel, a boutique venue located in San Francisco's tenderloin district, an area better known as a place to avoid. Despite its small size, ArtPad threw some of the better parties during what was popularly known, at least in more irreverent quarters, as SFart Week. The ArtPad vernissage was the place to be on Thursday night (at least before sneaking into the Asian Art Museum, which also had a do), and the next evening the fair hosted a benefit for the Black Rock Arts Foundation, a guaranteed good time. Black Rock is a local nonprofit founded in 2001 that brings the Burning Man ethos to public art.
ArtPad presented about 40 galleries, including a few non-Bay Area visitors like Mark Moore from Los Angeles and Lyons Wier from New York. Among the special panel discussions was one featuring Leo Villareal, talking about his upcoming LED installation on the Bay Bridge, and Berkeley Art Museum director Larry Rinder on "institutional missions."
As a New York expat myself, I couldn't help but compare the fledgling S.F. art scene to the one in New York. Dealer Jack Hanley's presence was much missed at the fair, as the former S.F. guitar man is now a New Yorker. My efforts to lure New Yorkers to the West Coast paid off when I baited Murat Orozobekov of Winkleman Gallery with promises of German beer chalets hidden in Muir woods, much to the chagrin of his partner Ed Winkleman.
Although the question remains as to whether San Francisco has much of a collector base, the town certainly has enough artists and galleries, as was clearly seen in the overwhelming spirit of camaraderie among the locals. One thing missing, however, was the air kisses. Could this be unique to the San Francisco art world?

Comments about Tektro BMX Sidepull Black:
Good product but has a very short mounting bolt and will not work on a front fork. I used a regular bolt to install, but would not recommend this as it will probably bend. This is an add on for a single rear break bike so it is not essential on my setup.
I really like this product, too bad it was for rear only. I totally didn't notice that when I purchased.

People seeking assistance to pay monthly rent or utilities to avoid eviction or utility termination notices were waiting through the night on the landing of Religious Community Services last week.
Phillip Scott was back in line early Wednesday morning. A few weeks ago he stood in front of the RCS door from 3:30 a.m. until 8 a.m. hoping to get assistance to pay his $900 utility bill. Another man was sleeping in front of the door. The man sleeping had been there since 11 p.m. the night before, Scott said.
Scott said that when he first came to New Bern four years ago, there was no problem getting help through RCS's assistance program. But until last week only the first five people were receiving assistant funding, he said.
But he said he could understand more people are seeking assistance now because of the economy.
Scott has been helped through RCS twice before, when he first moved to New Bern and in 2010. He was laid off from his job in August and said he had to come back to ask for additional help.
"Here at Christmas time, I can't afford to have my electricity turned off," he said.
The Department of Social Services told Scott it was out of funds to help people pay their utilities, he said.
"I understand they are trying to change (how the assistance is distributed), so I got up this morning and decided to give it one more shot," Scott said, adding he got there at 6 a.m. "With the Lord's help, maybe I'll get it this time."
Scott was standing in line with five other people who said they had seen people sleeping on the landing at RCS to be first in line when the doors open.
"I came from New Jersey and then I was living in Virginia," Scott said. "They helped you out. Here they don't even come to your door. They just go to your box and shut you off."
The utilities department does send out notices when customers fall behind on their bills.
Michael McMillan, executive director of RCS, said he and staff have initiated a different routine to help people get in and out of the assistance program quicker and to keep them from spending the night outside RCS to be first in line.
Until last week, RCS opened its doors every Wednesday at 8 a.m. and on a first-come basis people would receive funds for rent or utilities.
Now people will be let in at the same time when the doors open and selected randomly; it could be five to 15 people, depending on how much money is available, McMillan said.
"People were getting here earlier than they needed to," he said. "…We've had people tell us folks are coming at 3 a.m. and waiting all night on the landing for the doors to open. Last Wednesday one gentleman spent the night out there to be the first or second or third in line."
McMillan said more people were seeking funding assistance at RCS and food requests have almost doubled in the past two years because of the economy and less resources available. The Department of Social Services helps people with funding needs three or four times a year and when those funds run out, RCS is about the only agency left that can help, he said.
"Unfortunately, there are not enough funds to handle all the requests," McMillan said. "In an effort to get assistance, people have to go through too many hoops."
The assistance program was getting inconvenient, uncomfortable and could be hazardous at times for people sitting out in the cold on the stoop, McMillan said.
"We saw it last week," he said. "Now we will open the doors at 8 a.m. and everyone can come in at the same time. We'll have a random selection based on the money we have and everyone will know they have either been assisted or are out in 45 minutes."
The funds offered by RCS don't generally satisfy someone's outstanding rent or utility bills, he said.
"Folks generally have to partner with someone else or get their landlords or utilities to prorate their rent," he said. "It is hard enough for folks to have to come and ask someone for help. But to have them go through something like dealing with the weather by waiting outside — we didn't think that was the right way to do things."

We have enjoyed a number of successes last year that we hope to continue this year. Those successes haven't been just on the field or on the court. They have been in the classroom as well, and those are the successes that demonstrate Snead State Community College's commitment to providing the Complete College Experience for our students - including our student athletes.
The athletic program is committed to assisting the College in its top priority of having students earn their Associate degree at Snead State. We set a goal of graduating 60 percent of the freshmen enrolled in Fall 2011 by 2013. The national average for students to graduate from a community college in three years is less than 35 percent.
Of the freshmen enrolled in 2011, 68 percent of them earned their degree by the summer 2013. The average grade point average of our athletes was 3.10 in the spring 2013, which is higher than the average Snead State student. During last year, we had seven student athletes to be named NJCAA Academic Student-Athletes. Three different SSCC teams also received All-Academic Team accolades. This is what we call success!
Add to that highly competitive seasons during which our baseball team made it to the State Tournament for the second year in a row and our tennis team won the State Championship and competed at the national level for the sixth consecutive time. New coaches are making their mark, and our veteran coaches are enjoying continued success. Snead State has the best gym atmosphere in the State due to our athletes, the student body, our cheerleaders, dancers, and foremost, our Jazz Band. Everyone works together to provide excellent home court advantage for our teams.
SSCC's student athletes also serve as examples of the College's service learning philosophy. Last year, our athletes gave of their time to work with school reading programs, to volunteer with the Special Olympics, to assist with local animal shelters and to spend time with residents of assisted living facilities and nursing homes. They participated in a variety of events outside of their regular season games, and those events served to bring people to Snead's campus and make people aware of the positive things the College is doing. From athletic tournaments to camps and clinics, our athletes worked with the young people of our community while at the same time raising money for their respective programs.
The standards we have set for our student athletes are more stringent that those set by the NJCAA, but we believe those standards serve to make our students better competitors and better members of society. We hold our athletes to a high academic standard, so they can achieve their goals and demonstrate sportsmanship and the accomplishments that come through hard work and sacrifice. We hold them to a high citizenship standard so they set the example of the difference a productive and dedicated individual can make in the community. No matter how high our standards, our athletes have the ability and commitment to meet those standards. To our athletes, I want to wish you good luck this season. You are on the right track for a bright and positive future. Go Parsons!

The stairs pictured here have both treads and risers made out of Neopolitan.
Stairs are constructed of a series of steps. Steps consist of a tread and a riser. The tread is the portion of the stair that you stand and walk on. The riser is what makes ascending possible and is the vertical portion of the stair. Sometimes these are left out like in the photo below. Typically, though, in single family homes they are used.
These stairs do not have risers, so they're considered to be a floating staircase. Floating staircases are usually supported by one or more stringers, which structurally support the treads (and risers when used).
Giving your stairway the Plyboo Touch
Now that you're armed with knowledge about what makes a stair step, let's apply that knowledge to continuing the look and feel of your Plyboo or Durapalm floor on the stairway. There are several options to build a stairway that's right for your needs. The first option is to custom build the stair out of palm or bamboo plywood.
Although the most expensive option, it offers complete versatility as you can build the step into whatever you desire. Floating stairways, spirals, any option that there's a full view stairway can utilize this method. Work with a professional to design the stairway of your choice. This way you have full control over the look and feel of the tread, the visual effect and thickness of the whole step, and complete design freedom of what your step will look like.
Smith&Fong Co. offers both bamboo plywood and palm plywood in addition to flooring. Contact our main office to find your local distributor if you'd like to know how to customize your staircase.
A second, albeit, more common and less expensive option, is to buy a stair step to meet the riser. Stair steps are yet another solution to completing the look and feel of your flooring choice up the stairway. They're simple to install and they have the rounded nose that extends beyond the tread in one easy piece. Just purchase as many as you have steps and install.
The third and least expensive option is to use stair nosing with any additional flooring you may have ordered. Smith&Fong Co.'s stair nosing is different from its stair steps. While both extend beyond the rising, the stair nosing is an economical solution to offer the continuity of a flooring look. You merely lay the flooring down as your tread and clip the nosing piece onto the tongue of the palm or bamboo flooring.
Stair nosing is implemented for both aesthetic and practical reasons. It extends beyond the tread and rounds off the edge of the step finishing it off and giving a traditional (or in the case of Neopolitan non-traditional), yet polished look. The photo below uses Durapalm flooring and stair nosing to finish off the steps. It makes the tread extend beyond the riser beneath much like the stair step.
As you can see, there are many possibilities with bamboo and with palm as a building material. Each offers a great deal of versatility and there is a solution for every price range. If you'd like to know more ways to use bamboo, feel free to contact us at email@example.com.

Black Writers in America: James Baldwin
The Gould Center for Humanistic Studies proudly joins the Athenaeum and CMC in welcoming Shelby Steele back to Claremont. Well known to Claremont audiences, Steele, who in 1990 won the National Book Critics' Circle award for The Content of Our Character: A New Vision of Race in America (1990), will engage his own work with that of the late novelist and social critic James Baldwin.
Baldwin, who leapt onto the American literary scene with his first novel, Go Tell It On the Mountain (1953), captured further critical attention with a highly polemical essay entitled "Everybody's Favorite Protest Novel" (1949), in which he attacked the use of the novel as a form of social protest. Steele will locate his own and other writers' work within the tradition of social commentary in American literature and examine how writers' approaches to political action have met, refuted, or challenged those dicta that Baldwin articulated in his essay.
Steele has received wide acclaim for his ability to discuss broad social and moral issues with the sensibility of a novelist. Much in demand for the force and eloquence of his commentary, he has appeared on such television programs as 60 Minutes and The MacNeil-Lehrer News Hour. George Will has written that Steele's The Content of Our Character is the most important writing about race since Martin Luther King's Letters from Birmingham Jail (1963).
Steele is the Gould Center's special program director for the series, "Black Writers in America."
The End of Affluence: The Causes and Consequences of America's Economic Dilemma
According to Jeffrey Madrick, the American Dream is slowly moving out of reach for more and more Americans. Madrick asserts that if the American economy had continued to grow at the same rate it had been before 1973, we would have lower taxes, no health care concerns, and a federal deficit. Madrick uses both economic and historic examples to demonstrate that our slowing economy is a result of a. more competitive world market, rather than differing political ideologies, increased military spending, or the irresponsible behavior of citizens.
In his revealing book, The End of Affluence: The Causes and Consequences of America's Economic Dilemma (1995), Madrick identifies the reasons behind America's economic problems. He believes that we cannot progress until we understand the historical shift that caused this economic malaise.
Jeffrey Madrick, a graduate of Harvard business school, has written numerous articles on the American economy. A former finance editor for Business Week, he served as an economic reporter for NBC from 1985 to 1993.
Please join us for what will surely be an informative, provocative lecture concerning the state of the American economy.
The Myths and Realities of Human Rights
For 66 days in the summer of 1995, U.S. relations with China were not centered on trade, regional security, or the future of Taiwan. They were almost singularly driven by efforts to release human rights activist Harry Wu. A renowned critic of China's human rights policies, Wu intended to document what he has termed that nation's "dirty secret," the prison system's forced labor camps or laogai. Wu's arrest was an international incident, but his effort to expose the myths and realities of China's human rights violations is a personal crusade.
When Wu attempted to enter China through a remote border point in Kazakhstan on June 19, he was arrested by Chinese authorities on espionage charges. He was subsequently imprisoned for over two months, only to be convicted in a four-hour trial and deported from the country with a warning that if he were to return, he would serve a 15-year sentence. In spite of this threat, Wu refuses to give up his work: "I cannot turn my back on my former inmates or my suffering country. I won't give up. No way."
Wu's activist history certainly supports his assertion. Since he arrived in the United States in 1985, he has returned to China three times, not only to videotape the conditions of labor-reform camps but to confirm allegations that prison-made products were being exported to the U.S. and that the organs of executed criminals were sold to transplant recipients.
The intense commitment that Wu has to his campaign is rooted in his own history. The Chinese government identified Wu as a counterrevolutionary and arrested him at the age of 23 for criticizing the Soviet Union's 1956 invasion of Hungary. He consequently spent the next 19 years of his life in camps that emphasized "reform through labor."
A research fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution, Wu founded the Laogai Research Foundation to expose the human rights violations of China's prison camp system. He also has chronicled his experiences in a book co-written by Carolyn Wakeman, Bitter Winds: A Memoir of My Years in China's Gulag (1993). Most recently, Wu was nominated for the 1996 Nobel Peace Prize by Congressman Pete Stark of California.
Harry Wu's appearance at the Athenaeum is sponsored by the Keck Center for International and Strategic Studies and the Office of the Dean of the Faculty at CMC.
Dinner reservations are available to Claremont McKenna College persons only. The 6:45 p.m. talk is open to all.
Deep-sea Animals: What Do We Know About Them, and What Do They Mean to Us?
What creatures live on the ocean's floor? What do we know about these animals, and why are they important to us? The deep sea, those areas of the world's oceans that are permanently dark and cold, is the home of a variety of animals that are specially adapted to the extreme physical conditions in which they live. Recent discoveries reveal that the deep sea is very important to our well-being, and although this vast habitat seems very remote to the casual observer, our actions on land can have far-reaching consequences in the deep sea.
David L. Pawson, senior research scientist at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History, has been investigating the denizens of the deep sea floor for more than 30 years, using collecting nets towed from ships, cameras that can be lowered to the seafloor, and manned research submersibles. In this quest to reveal the mysteries of the ocean's floor, he has traveled the globe, including Antarctica, Ascension Island, Chile, Argentina, Panama, and the South Pacific. In the last decade, Pawson has made 100 dives in the Johnson Sea-Link submersibles to observe deep-sea organisms in the Bahamas.
David Pawson received his Ph.D. from Victoria University in Wellington, New Zealand in 1964. Pawson also serves as an honorary research associate at the National Museum of New Zealand, as well as an associate in marine biology in the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard University.
David Pawson's appearance at the Athenaeum is sponsored by Sigma Xi, the national honorary society for science majors.

Readings from "The Flaming Corsage"
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1995 12:15 p.m.
In conjunction with the Gould Center for Humanistic Studies, the Athenaeum is proud to welcome William Kennedy, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Ironweed (1983), to Claremont to read from his just-finished novel, The Flaming Corsage (1996). Kennedy is famous for his Albany cycle, which includes, in addition to Ironweed, the novels Billy Phelan's Greatest Game (1978), Legs (1975), and Very Old Bones (1992). His latest work returns to the scene of Billy Phelan's Greatest Game and deals with the journalist Martin Daugherty and his wife Katrina, whom readers of Very Old Bones will remember as being very much involved in Fran Phelan's fortunes.
In addition to his work as a novelist, Kennedy is a wide-ranging and acute essayist and critic. His random pieces have recently been brought together in the collection, Riding the Yellow Trolley Car (1993). Among his many other notable credits is the screenplay (with Godfather (1972) author Mario Puzo) of Cotton Club (1984).
Mr. Kennedy's reading will begin at 12:15 p.m.
History Wars of the 1990s
As the codirector of the National History Standards Project, Gary Nash has endeavored to revolutionize how history is taught in American classrooms. He leads the movement to create a voluntary curriculum for the instruction of history from kindergarten through the 12th grade. This address is part of the Athenaeum series entitled "Redefining Education."
The project's initial recommendations were published last fall in a three-volume work, National Standards in United States History: Exploring the American Experience (1994). The ultimate objective of Nash's efforts are effectively summarized in those volumes: "The study of history involves more than the passive absorption of facts, dates, names and places. Real historical understanding requires students to engage in historical thinking: to raise questions and to marshal evidence in support of their answers; to go beyond the facts presented in their textbooks and examine the historical record for themselves."
The guidelines developed by Nash and his collaborators have been praised for raising the academic goals of history instruction to levels heretofore unknown as well as for incorporating the contributions of women and minorities into the main of U.S. history. However, Nash's group has also ignited a firestorm of controversy among conservatives who decry what they perceive as a liberal bias and a negative depiction of Western civilization.
Nash, the director of the UCLA National Center for History in the Schools, has been a member of UCLA's faculty since 1966 and is considered by his peers the "preeminent active historian of colonial America." His books include The Urban Crucible: Social Change, Political Consciousness and the Origins of the American Revolution (1979) -a Pulitzer Prize finalist-and Forging Freedom: The Formation of Philadelphia's Black Community, 1720-1840 (1988), which earned him the award for best book of 1988 from the Society for the History of the Early American Republic. In 1995 he was recognized as a University of California distinguished emeriti for his scholarship in the humanities and social sciences.
Poet Reads From His Work
Steve Kowit is a man as original as his poetry. He sharpened his craft, and modeled his own poetry, after the tradition of the Beat poets of the 1950s and 1960s. His literary education in coffeehouses in New York's Lower East Side and San Francisco's Haight Ashbury district contributes to the humanity and accessibility of Kowit's poetry.
Kowit is the editor of The Maverick Poets: An Anthology (1988), an anthology of contemporary poetry. He has published five volumes of his own poetry, including Lurid Confessions (1983) and Climbing the Walls (1976). In the Palm of Your Hand: A Poet's Portable Workshop (1995), his latest book, is a guide that encourages poets to transform their dreams and secrets into poetry. He believes that poetry should be "hot and passionate, from the heart, communicated with craft," and not cold or distant.
The recipient of numerous awards, including a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts Literature Program, Kowit teaches poetry at Southwestern College. He has translated a volume of political poetry by Latino poet Pablo Neruda, and he has recreated traditional Indian love poetry. Kowit is also an outspoken advocate in the animal rights movement. In addition to his poetic endeavors, Kowit has published two crossword puzzle dictionaries (1977) and a book on low-cholesterol cooking (1974).
Please join us as Steve Kowit reads from his own poetry.
Bach, Barrios, Bebop, and Beyond
KENTON YOUNGSTROM, guitar
PUTTER SMITH, bass
Kenton Youngstrom is one of America's most dynamic and gifted musicians. Youngstrom earned his B.A. and M.A. degrees from the University of Southern California, where he studied guitar with James Smith and Lee Ritenour. He also participated in master classes with artists such as Pepe and Angel Romero, Gabor Rejto, Manuel Barrueco, and Michael Lorimer.
In this multifaceted performance, he will perform pieces ranging from classical to his own unique blend of jazz. The first half of the program will include classical guitar from Bach music from the late-romantic Argentinean composer Barrios.
In the second half of the program, Youngstrom will be joined by bassist Putter Smith, who has played with Thelonious Monk, Duke Ellington, Art Blakey, and Johnny Mathis. Smith's professional career spans four decades and includes eight jazz recordings.
Youngstrom and Smith will play a piece of music that is more spontaneous than traditional jazz. The piece, entitled "Dialogue," is completely interactive and lacks traditional set chord progression, key, or meter. In addition, Youngstrom will be performing an original jazz composition.
Among Youngstrom's numerous awards and honors, he has served as musical director of Ballet Folklorica Mexicapan and cofounded Mariachi Mexicapana. He has performed with the Redlands Symphony, Downey Symphony, and the Glendale and Pasadena Chamber Orchestras.
This concert is made possible through a generous gift from Ed and Dorothy Stotsenberg, friends of Claremont McKenna College and sponsors of the Stotsenberg Chamber Music Series.
The U.S. Mambo: One Step Forward, Two Steps Back
"If I don't touch people with my reporting, then I'm not doing my job," says Maria Hinojosa, an award-winning journalist and news correspondent for National Public Radio (NPR). As a reporter intimately familiar with the issues that affect women and Latinos, she maintains an outspoken position on multiculturalism and the minority empowerment.
Focused on urban and inner-city issues, Hinojosa's investigative reporting is dedicated to exposing the stories that are often overlooked by the media. Her most acclaimed work is a list of unconventional, yet critically important topics that range from women and AIDS in Puerto Rico to a story entitled "Kids and Guns," which received the New York Society of Professional Journalists award. In a Los Angeles Times interview, she explained: "I want to do the stories no one else is doing, and I think those stories come from just talking and listening to different kinds of people, and hearing what is important to them."
Hinojosa's report on New York's crews-bands of youth that do not consider themselves as gangs, but have the same violent tendencies-has been recently published as a book. In Crews: Gang Members Talk to Maria Hinojosa (1995), she details the lives of young men and women who turn to these groups for the support they lack from their families.
A magna cum laude alumna of Barnard College, Hinojosa is a provocative journalist who is both innovative and prolific. Apart from hosting NPR's Latino USA, a journal of news and culture, she anchors WNBC-TV's public affairs show Visiones. Hinojosa is also a contributor to Public Television's Informed Sources and a frequent guest of CNN and Company.
Good News, Bad News: Washington Confronts a Changing Middle East
A tenuous Palestinian-Israeli peace and Iraq's occasional military rumblings dominate current American concerns in the Middle East. However, these issues present only a sampling of the questions that confront a region that is still attempting to cope with changing social, political, and economic realities. The Soviet Union's collapse and the end of the oil boom have permanently changed the dynamics of area politics. Michael Hudson, a leading Arabist and a Georgetown University professor of international relations, addresses U.S. policy toward the Middle East in regard to this crucial transitionary period.
In their drive to achieve political stability and military security, Middle East countries have been swept by powerful forces, such as the dual rise of both Islamic political movements and free market doctrines. Hudson's published work focuses on these very factors, which include the unresolved problems he has witnessed personally. He was abruptly forced to end his Fulbright senior fellowship at Sanaa University when civil war erupted in Yemen in 1994.
Hudson is the Seif Ghobash Professor of Arab Studies at Georgetown's School of Foreign Service and served as the director of the university's Center for Contemporary Arab Studies. A past president of the Middle East Studies Association, Hudson's research relates to processes of political liberalization, politics in divided societies, Middle East regional security, and the Arab-Israeli conflict. His publications include The Precarious Republic: Political Modernization in Lebanon (1968), Arab Politics: The Search for Legitimacy (1977), and an edited volume, The Palestinians: New Directions (1990). His current project is a book on political participation in the Middle East.
The Keck Center for International and Strategic Studies and the Athenaeum are pleased to present tonight's distinguished guest to the Claremont community.

An event which has been going on for more than 30 years in Lenoir County continues to bring smiles to dozens of children.
On Friday, the Lenoir County Special Olympics had its annual fall games event at the Fairfield Recreation Center, with student-athletes from schools across the county participating.
Kinston-Lenoir County Parks and Recreation program supervisor Galen Treble said 10 to 15 schools participate in the semi-annual event.
"We have a fall and a spring Olympics each year," Trebel said. "The kids look forward to it every year. It's a big event for them, and they practice all year for it. We pick them up, bus them, volunteers help with the kids and we feed them lunch from Dominos."
The Kinston Civitan Club provided sponsorship and volunteers for the event. Marcia Hart, the president of the group, said the primary focus was helping people with developmental disabilities.
"We give our assistance here because we love seeing the smiles on people's faces," Hart said. "This is strictly volunteer work, so you know we love what we're doing."
Recreation superintendent Tim Knobeloch said the parks and recreation department stresses the importance of keeping the event going strong.
"This is the kids' chance to shine and their moment in the spotlight," Knobeloch said. "In the fall, we have a basketball skills competition and track and field during the spring. The kids cherish it, and the Special Olympics is one of the most valuable programs we conduct."
Melissa McCoy, who has been the Lenoir County Special Olympics coordinator since 2004, said seeing the smiling faces of the children competing is always great.
"The kids come out here and have a good time mingling with others from different schools," McCoy said. "It's a competition, but a friendly one, and everyone has a great time. It's a bit like a field day for them."
The Fun Zone provided entertainment throughout, with Flimsy Da Clown performing tricks, making balloon animals and passing out candy to the children.
"I've been doing the Special Olympics for about nine years, and it's always a great event," Flimsy said. "It's great to see the kids and adults who come out."
Caroline Carlyle, who was crowned Miss Neuse in February, delivered the welcome and said she enjoyed the Olympics.
"It's just a great event all around," Carlyle said. "I love watching the children having fun and enjoying themselves."
One of the children, Tyquan McKinney, a seventh-grader at Rochelle Middle School, said he had plenty of fun.
"I feel great and like being here," he said.
McKinney's grandmother, Betsy Greenchase, said it was an event which has a positive effect on the students.
"It's very important to make these kids look special," Greenchase said. "It's something they look forward to and they're motivated to do their best in the activities."
Marquel Black, a freshman at Kinston High School, said he had a good time, but needed to practice more at basketball.
"I've got to work more on my shot," Black said.
South Lenoir sophomore Christopher Guardiola said he enjoyed the Special Olympics.
"I like that I get to go against another school for competition," Guardiola said. "My favorite thing was shooting the basketball."
Logan Hardy, a third-grader from Northwest Elementary, said the event was cool, but the only thing he didn't like was the balloons popping.
"I don't like the noise (of the balloons)," Hardy said. "I did like bouncing the basketball."
Timila Lane, an exceptional children teacher at South Lenoir, said she has had the school taking part in the event for the past 10 years.
"This event allows the students to participate with their peers at a competitive level," Lane said. "Other students get to do it, so it's important these students have a function, and I'm thankful the community gives us the opportunity to do this."
Mayor B.J. Murphy, who opened the games, said the event is vital to the community, especially the children participating.
"These young people need to be embraced by the city and county," Murphy said. "I'm proud of the school system and the parks and recreation department for continuing to put these games on."

I like the pictures in the first post, particularly the second one because of the way you collaged the faces together. Love teh shading technique, it really contributes to the overall feel of the art.
You should update this sketchbook, you have some real talent. It is somewhat inspiring to see work like this as it is the sort of art that I do in my spare time trying to cram a lot of things into one piece of paper(except mine is much lower quality).

About Railroad Earth
Railroad Earth Tickets - All Aboard the Music TrainWhen one of New Jersey's most popular bands -- From Good Homes -- broke up in 2001, there was a wonder if bluegrass was going to stay big. Well, it did just fine. Railroad Earth was born in 2001 to take up the helm. It was back in 1998 when violinist Timothy Carbone collaborated to get a band going and recruited a man named Todd Sheaffer on vocals and acoustic guitar, another by the name of Goessling on acoustic guitar, mandolin, banjo, penny whistle, and saxophone, also John Skehan on mandolin, guitar and piano, drummer and percussionist Carey Harmon, and upright and electric bass guitar player Dave Von Dollen. BOS Music took the band on to carry the torch for the ever-loved genre of bluegrass music.
Railroad Earth Tickets - The Music of the RailroadAfter releasing a few songs on an EP -- like 'Head,' 'Black Bear,' 'Stillwater Getaway,' and 'Cold Water' -- BOS Music had released a proper CD called The Black Bear Sessions in June of 2001. It was critically acclaimed. It was so acclaimed that the band absolutely had to release a second album in 2002 called Bird in a House followed by another album in 2004 called The Good Life. They kept touring, playing, and recording after that, making headlines in the bluegrass industry.
Railroad Earth Tickets - The Sound of the Earth PlayingImprov was awesome with the Railroad Earth, traveling to different genres and even eras as they mixed the sounds of the Grateful Dead, String Cheese Incident, Phish, and Leftover Salmon. The Railroad wasn't just bluegrass, by any stretch. They lovingly kissed the genres of folk music, Celtic music, jazz, and even rock. And that was part of their ingenuity.

Clinical TrialsClinical trials are research studies in which people help doctors find ways to improve health and cancer care. Each study tries to answer scientific questions and to find better ways to prevent, diagnose, or treat cancer. A clinical trial is one of the final stages of a long and careful cancer research process. Studies are done with cancer patients to find out whether promising approaches to cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment are safe and effective. Click the link above to find out more about Radiation Oncology clinical trials.
Section of Radiation BiologyResearch in the Radiation Biology section is focused on utilizing interdisciplinary advances in cell and molecular biology as well as translational research to develop novel therapeutic approaches that will enhance our ability to treat cancer. Areas of ongoing research include the role of oxidative stress/inflammation in radiation-induced normal tissue injury, interventional approaches to modulate radiation-induced late effects, and anti-tumor approaches including radiosensitization, modulation of angiogenesis and the tumor microenvironment, and gene targeting for cancer. Section of Radiation Physics:o Bioanatomic Imaging and Treatment Program The Bioanatomic Imaging and Treatment (BAIT) Program is a clinical and research program at North Carolina Baptist Hospitals and Wake Forest University School of Medicine. The program was initiated in the late 1990s with a grant from the NCBH Developmental Technologies grant program, with additional industrial funding from Varian Medical Systems and GE Healthcare. Facilities aspects of the program include dedicated PET-CT and 3.0T MR Simulators in the Department of Radiation Oncology in the new WFUBMC Outpatient Comprehensive Cancer Center. TRADONC Research Fellowship The Department of Radiation Oncology at the Wake Forest University School of Medicine in Winston-Salem, NC is currently funded by the NCI to institute a novel, interdisciplinary postdoctoral training program in translational radiation oncology called TRADONC. The mission of TRADONC is to equip basic scientists, radiation oncologists and other cancer specialists with the background and expertise required to work efficiently and effectively together and be successful in obtaining peer-reviewed funding in translational radiation oncology, biology and physics research. o Physics Research The Department of Radiation Oncology supports graduate students through the VT/WFU School of Biomedical Engineering and Sciences program. Current research thrusts include IMRT resolution studies, PET imaging threshold analysis, and shape-based problem solving.

It's odd, but for me, the killer feature of Mists is your farm at Halfhill.
I've played games which had player housing, and similar cosmetic structures, and I've never really done anything with them. I've bought the land or house, maybe added one decoration, and then never bothered with it again.
So why is Farmer Yoon's farm so different?
I think it's because the farm is useful.
I like logging in and harvesting vegetables to level cooking. Or planting crops for various quests. Or planting crops to get raw materials for professions or even Motes of Harmony.
It's like you don't need to farm mats anymore, you can just "farm" them. Very zen.
I like upgrading the farm, and making it more useful. I like that there's a "rhythm" to the farm. Log in, harvest today's crops, plant tomorrow's crops. Simple, and yet feels just right.
I even like getting the cosmetic features like the dog. It's like player housing, but making it actually useful instead of just cosmetic was the element that put it over the top.
Excellent work on the farm and the Tillers, Blizzard.
I hope the next expansion sees an expanded farm system, maybe near Stormwind, that is more integrated into the game as an evergreen feature, rather than just an expansion-only feature.

It's odd, but for me, the killer feature of Mists is your farm at Halfhill.

I agree, I never thought I would like the Farmville thing, but I am enjoing it immensely, which is surprising.
But of course there is the gambling addictive aspect in it for me too as I hope every day for a Terrible Turnip...

For me, the success of Halfhill means that Blizzard might have to review their stance on player housing. I don't know anyone who doesn't love the Tillers, and I love decorating my farm, and wish there were more options for it.
I am pretty sure people would be happy to have their homes at the farm, with more decoration options, and still be out in the world. I know that the latter point was always quoted as one of their main reasons for not having player housing. As if everyone just hanging out in Orgrimmar/Stormwind in Cata's World of Queuecraft was any better.

The Tillers is the first reputation I have raised to exalted. Even if I mostly farm spirits of harmony, it's a relaxing change of pace from killkillkillkill.
The Tillers dailies tend also to be better than the others.
At the same time, I will soon celebrate 1 year of playing the settlers online, so it's probably not a suprise that I liked the farm :P

Companion crafting was one of the things that I really did like about SW:ToR. Combine that with the farm concept and I think you can do interesting things.
Not something that could be done in WoW, the economy and craft system is wrong, but it would be more engaging rework of the basic craft trades. Want minerals? Go find a mine (of the correct type), do a lot of questing to clear it out and get things started. Need to refine the minerals? Same thing, but you need to find a suitable foundry. Do the same for the finishing trades. A lot of details would need to be worked but it would still feel better than "my Death Knight, the Blacksmith".

Everything about the Tillers is awesome. I actually cared about helping them out and expanding my farm. Blizzard knocked it out of the park with that one. Hopefully it will inspire them to do similar things elsewhere in the game.
My wife said the other day that she wished that we could farm stuff from the animals on the farm. Her example was with Shaggy the Yak (he's an awesome yak). We should be able to sheer him and make yak wool to make other stuff. There are lots of possibilities.
The only problem I have with Halfhill is the market and how there's always some ahole covering up a quest giver or vendor on purpose.

The game has an "Interact with target" option to keybind. Set that to something, type /tar "name of vendor" and press the keybind to get around the D-bags. Usually just the first few letters of the vendor's name is enough, so you don't have to type the whole name out.

Sounds dumb, but I can't stop clicking on Shaggy. He's got about 6 different sounds, all vaguely flatulent. I love my yak.

I'd agree, I've found the farm very useful, and often made >1000g a day even at honored in the initial rush for people to level cooking. Still pulling in >600g a day with Spirit farming.
