Policy Against Discrimination and Harassment in Employment Practices and in Student Academic and Campus Life
Barnard College is guided by the precept that in no aspect of its employment practices or educational programs should there be disparate treatment of persons because of improper considerations of race, color, religion, creed, national or ethnic origin, sex, sexual orientation, age or disability. In addition, Barnard College does not discriminate on the basis of alienage or citizenship status, gender (including gender identity), marital status or partnership status, military status, predisposing genetic characteristics or domestic violence victim status in its employment practices.
Barnard College is committed to providing an environment free from sex and gender-based discrimination or harassment. As such, the College does not tolerate any kind of gender-based discrimination or harassment, which includes sexual assault, sexual harassment and gender-based harassment. Gender-based misconduct is a serious concern on college campuses throughout the country. To address this problem, the College provides educational and preventative programs, services for individuals who have been impacted by gender-based and sexual misconduct, and accessible, prompt, and equitable methods of investigation and resolution.
While Barnard College has long had an express policy against improper discrimination, it is to be understood the policy also explicitly encompasses the goal that faculty, staff and students are to be able to work and study free from harassment by any member of the College community. Barnard College does not tolerate and specifically prohibits any and all harassment against any person by a member of the College community. Appropriate disciplinary action may be taken against those found to have committed harassment, up to and including dismissal.
For the purposes of this document, the "College community" includes: students, faculty and staff; prospective students and employment applicants; visitors to and guests of the College.
Discriminatory Harassment is harassment on the basis of a protected classification, including harassment of an individual in connection with a stereotyped group characteristic, or because of that person's identification with a particular group. Such harassment is any conduct, verbal or physical, on or off campus, that has the effect, because of its severity and/or persistence, of unreasonably interfering with an individual or group's educational or work performance or that creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive educational, work, or living environment.
Discriminatory harassment includes but is not limited to: epithets or slurs; negative stereotyping; denigrating jokes; and display or circulation in the working, learning, or living environment (including electronic transmission) of written or graphic material. Sexual and Gender-based misconduct, which are described in detail below, constitutes a form of discriminatory harassment.
Gender-Based and Sexual Misconduct
Gender-based misconduct comprises a broad range of behaviors focused on sex and/or gender discrimination that may or may not be sexual in nature. Sexual harassment, sexual assault, sexual exploitation, gender-based harassment, stalking, and intimate partner violence (which includes domestic violence and dating violence) are forms of gender-based misconduct under this policy. Misconduct can occur between strangers or acquaintances, including people involved in an intimate or sexual relationship (current or former). Gender-based misconduct can be committed by men or by women, and it can occur between people of the same or different sex.
Gender-based harassment includes acts of verbal, non-verbal, or physical aggression, intimidation, or hostility based on gender or gender-stereotyping. Gender-based harassment can occur when an individual or group is harassed either for exhibiting stereotypical characteristics of a particular sex or failing to conform to stereotypical notions of masculinity or femininity. To constitute harassment, the conduct must unreasonably interfere with an individual's educational or work activities or create an intimidating, hostile, or demeaning work or educational campus environment.
Sexual harassment is unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature. Sexual assault and requests for sexual favors that affect educational or employment decisions constitute sexual harassment. Sexual harassment may also consist of unwelcome physical contact, requests for sexual favors, visual displays of degrading sexual images, sexually suggestive conduct, or remarks of a sexual nature. Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal, nonverbal (including print or electronic communication) or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitute sexual harassment when:
1. Submission to such conduct is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of an individual's employment or admission to or participation in an academic program or College-sponsored activity; or
2. Submission to or rejection of such conduct is used as the basis for decisions affecting an individual's employment status or academic standing; or
3. Such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's performance on the job or in the classroom; or
4. Such conduct has the purpose or effect of creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive work or study environment for an individual or group of individuals.
Sexual harassment can occur regardless of the relationship, position or respective sex of the parties, same sex harassment violates this policy. Harassment because of one's actual or perceived sexual orientation also constitutes a violation of this policy. Violation of this policy also includes harassment by a student of a faculty member or a subordinate employee of his/her supervisor.
Intimate partner violence, Also referred to as Domestic Violence or Dating Violence. The use of physical violence, coercion, threats, intimidation, isolation, stalking, or other forms of emotional, sexual or economic abuse used to control a partner in an intimate relationship constitute intimate partner violence. This includes any behaviors that intimidate, manipulate, humiliate, isolate, frighten, terrorize, coerce, threaten, blame, hurt, injure, or wound someone. Intimate partner violence can be a single act or a pattern of behavior in relationships. Intimate partner relationships are defined as short or long-term relationships (current or former) between persons intended to provide some emotional/romantic and/or physical intimacy.
Stalking. As mentioned in the definitions for gender-based misconduct, stalking is defined as a course of conduct directed at a specific person that would cause a reasonable person to feel fear or suffer(experience?) substantial emotional distress. Stalking involves repeated and continued harassment made against the expressed wishes of another individual, which causes the targeted individual to feel emotional distress, including fear and apprehension. Stalking behaviors may include: pursuing or following; non-consensual (unwanted) communication or contact - including face-to-face, telephone calls, voice messages, electronic messages, text messages, unwanted gifts, etc.; trespassing; and surveillance or other types of observation.
Sexual Assault. The College defines sexual assault as any non-consensual, intentional physical contact of a sexual nature, such as unwelcome physical contact with a person's genitals, buttocks, or breasts, or any form of sexual intercourse without consent. Rape is a form of sexual assault. Sexual assault occurs when the act (non-consensual sexual contact or non-consensual sexual intercourse) is committed by: a) physical force, violence, threat, or intimidation; b) ignoring the objections or without the consent of another person; c) causing another's intoxication or impairment through the use of alcohol or other drugs; and/or d) taking advantage of another person's incapacitation (whether by alcohol or drug use, disability, unconsciousness or is otherwise helpless) which renders them unable to give consent.
Sexual Exploitation. Non-consensual sexual abuse or exploitation of another, such behavior that does not otherwise constitute another specifically defined behavior. Examples of sexual exploitation include, but are not limited to, non-consensual use of electronics to capture, reproduce or share images of a sexual nature without consent of parties involved, public indecency or exposing genitals to others without consent, or engaging in 'peeping' (observing another when privacy would be reasonably expected) without consent.
Consent. The presence of consent involves explicit communication and mutual approval for the act in which the parties are/were involved. A sexual encounter is considered consensual when individuals each willingly and knowingly engage in sexual activity. Consent cannot be obtained through the use of coercion. In instances of sexual assault, coercion is the use of pressure, manipulation, substances force and disregarding objections of another party to engage in sexual activity. The presence of consent must be identified (Consent must be clearly and unambiguously communicated.) The absence of "No" is not a "Yes."
The use of alcohol or other drugs can lower inhibitions and influence whether a reasonable person would believe that another is able to provide consent for sexual activity. One who is incapacitated (whether by alcohol or drug use, disability, unconsciousness, or is otherwise helpless) cannot consent to sexual activity.
Consensual Relationships and Sexual Harassment Actual or apparent authority that employees may have over a student is a strong factor in finding that certain types of conduct constitute sexual harassment. This can be so even if a student has accepted the conduct, does not show signs of being harassed, or fails to file a complaint of harassment.
Consistent with the College's policy on sexual harassment, consensual relationships are deemed sexual harassment when they are found to compromise the educational mission of the College. Complaints of sexual harassment of students, including alleged consensual relationships, will be carefully evaluated in the context of the unique relationship and responsibility that faculty, administrators and other College employees have to students or employees.
The conduct alleged to constitute harassment under this policy will be evaluated from the perspective of a reasonable person similarly situated to the complainant and considering all of the facts and circumstances. A single incident or a few incidents may not necessarily rise to the level of harassment; however, a single extreme incident could constitute prohibited discrimination or harassment. Each matter will be evaluated individually.
The Concept of Academic Freedom and Employment Responsibility
Under the College's Code of Academic Freedom and Tenure "all officers of instruction and all officers of administration while giving instruction are entitled to freedom in the classroom in discussing their subjects and . . . they are entitled to freedom in research and in the publication of its results." Similarly, students are encouraged to openly express their views and opinions. While not all conduct can be shielded by claims of academic freedom or freedom of expression, the College is committed to encouraging meaningful, candid discussion in the classroom and in other academic settings and recognizes that there can be a tension between the need for frank and open discussion and the right of individuals to be free from injury caused by harassment.
Harassment must be distinguished from behavior that, even though unpleasant or disconcerting, is appropriate to the carrying out of certain instructional, advisory, or supervisory responsibilities of education or employment. Instructional responsibilities require appropriate latitude for pedagogical decisions concerning the topics discussed and methods used to draw students into discussion and full participation. Similarly, supervisory responsibilities require appropriate latitude for decisions concerning the methods of fulfilling institutional and work related obligations. Therefore, in determining whether alleged conduct constitutes harassment, it is necessary to examine all of the relevant information available, including the nature of the conduct and the context in which the alleged incidents occurred.
The complete Columbia University Gender-Based Misconduct Policies for Students (Including Sexual Assault, Sexual Harassment and Gender-based Harassment Polices) can be downloaded from Columbia's website: www.Columbia.edu/cu/dpsa. In addition, the complete Grievance Procedures for allegations of sexual or gender-based misconduct and General Grievance Procedures can be found on the Barnard College website.
Who May Bring a Report of Discrimination or Harassment?
A report alleging discrimination or harassment may be brought by any member of the College community. Note that the person reporting the information need not be the intended or even apparent target of the conduct that is alleged to be harassment. Reports may also be brought by individuals who are not members of the community, but who believe that discrimination or harassment may have occurred.
In certain instances, the College may investigate allegations of discrimination or harassment based on information received from individuals within or outside the College community, or from other sources, such as newspaper accounts or anonymous letters or phone calls.
In all cases, before further action will be taken, the College will carefully consider the source and nature of the information received; the specificity of the information; the objectivity and credibility of the source of the report; whether it can identify individuals who were subjected to the alleged discrimination or harassment; and whether those individuals want to pursue the matter. If there is sufficient reason to believe that a violation of this policy may have occurred, an investigation will commence.
Duty to Report Staff, faculty, and student Resident Assistants (RAs) have a duty to report knowledge of alleged or observed incidents of harassment to their supervisor and/or the Associate Dean for Equity/Title IX Coordinator upon learning such information. Any member of the community may consult with the Title IX Coordinator to review available information and determine applicable reporting obligations and/or available resources.
Any attempt by a member of the Barnard College Community to penalize, intimidate, or retaliate in any way against a person who makes a report of or who is otherwise involved in a report of discrimination or harassment is prohibited. Retaliation may be found even when the underlying report does not constitute discrimination or harassment in violation of policy. A retaliatory adverse action is an action taken to deter a reasonable person from opposing a discriminatory or harassing practice, and/or from pursuing his/her rights. Examples of adverse actions include termination, denial of promotion or participation in otherwise qualified employment or educational opportunity, and unjustified negative evaluations or references. Adverse actions may not include petty slights and annoyances such as isolated negative comments in an otherwise positive or neutral evaluation, snubbing of an individual, or negative comments that are justified by poor work or assignment performance or history. Employees who have filed a report or expressed opposition to potentially discrimination or harassment are still expected to perform their job functions and follow their employer's legitimate workplace rules and responsibilities.
Any person who believes that he or she has been the victim of retaliation for reporting discrimination or harassment or cooperating in an investigation should immediately contact the Title IX Coordinator. Members of the College community are expected to cooperate with investigations of violation of this policy. Any person who retaliates against a person in response to a report or cooperation in an investigation will be in violation of this policy and will be subject to the appropriate discipline process.
False Reports
Any person who knowingly files a false claim of discrimination or harassment will be in violation of this policy and will be subject to the appropriate disciplinary process.

The Nonprofit Loan Fund helps nonprofit organizations in our 23-county service area meet short-term funding needs by providing bridge loans. Building upon the success of the Arts Loan Fund, The Community Foundation is expanding loans to stabilize the funding of nonprofit organizations. The Loan Fund allows organizations to weather times of short-term cash crunches, seize immediate growth opportunities that require some investment or maintain steady operations while waiting for pledged public or private grant funds or contracts. Because of its year-round accessibility and quick underwriting process, the Loan Fund serves as a valuable source of alternative short-term financing for organizations that typically juggle cyclical grant payments.
The Community Foundation conducted a feasibility study in 2009 to determine the needs within the nonprofit sector. Through this study we discovered:
There is a clear need to help nonprofit organizations not only secure short-term funding but also to create healthy banking relationships. At The Community Foundation, we are committed to strengthening nonprofits in our region, and by making these connections between banks and nonprofits, we are increasing the financial sustainability of nonprofit organizations.
Working directly with our Loan Fund administrator, nonprofit organizations are led through the full application process. Nonprofit organizations with operating budgets between $250,000 and $3,000,000 with a 3-year history as a 501(c)3 are eligible to apply for short-term loans of $10,000 to $50,000. Organizations must be located in our 23-county Metro Atlanta service area.
The Nonprofit Loan Fund operates on a rolling deadline. Applications to the Loan Fund are evaluated as they are received. In most cases, applicants will be notified of a loan decision within two weeks of submitting a complete application package.
Nonprofits interested in applying for loans through the Loan Fund are strongly encouraged to attend an upcoming workshop/orientation session. (At this time, there are no scheduled workshops. Please check back or join The Community Foundation's email list to be notified when the next session is scheduled.)
Cash Flow Projection WorksheetAn important part of the Nonprofit Loan Fund application process is creating a cash flow projection worksheet. Please see video below for a recorded presentation.Click here to access video.
To include a knowledgeable and broad perspective in this work, the Nonprofit Loan Fund is guided by an Advisory Committee of members who have direct banking and lending expertise, as well as nonprofit leaders who understand nonprofit management and trends affecting the nonprofit sector. The committee provides consultation, input and perspective on the Nonprofit Loan Fund application process and overall program progress.
Josh Phillipson, program associate404-588-3216 email@example.com
Loan capital for the Nonprofit Loan Fund is provided by The Community Foundation's capital, as well as two donors who have provided capital for loan guarantees. Operations of the Loan Fund are supported by six generous Atlanta bank sponsors. We are grateful for their shared interest in strengthening our region's nonprofits.
As the largest provider of HIV supportive housing and housing services in the Atlanta region, the Living Room approached the Nonprofit Loan Fund for bridge financing in June 2010. As a result of this bridge loan from the Nonprofit Loan Fund, Living Room was able to continue operating near-capacity during a time when cash flow was tight. Read more.

Cougars Wrap Up Hard Football Season in Paradise
College football is a hard, cruel business.
Yes, business. Colleges don't fork out all that cash for coaches, scholarships, facilities, equipment and travel without expecting a good return on their dollar.
Obviously, the Washington State Cougars finished in the red on the football field this year. One more loss, and they'll be the biggest losers in school history. Twenty-one more points allowed, and they'll be the leakiest defensive team in major college history.
Tonight, Washington State's 19 seniors get one last chance to try to right what went so terribly wrong this season when they finish the season at Hawaii.
"Every year," tight end Ben Woodard said, "your goal is to be a Pac-10 champion and go to a bowl game."
Those dreams disappeared long, long ago. However, seniors like Woodard, Greg Trent and Brandon Gibson promise to fight to the end.
"You have to enjoy the moment," Trent said. "Enjoy the privilege of playing."
"I want to help start the Cougar legacy with Coach (Paul) Wulff and the other guys," Gibson said. "This is a great way to shoot up to that level."
"This" was last Saturday's come-from-behind, double-overtime, 16-13 win over Washington. The task now is get a team loaded with inexperienced players to focus on a season-ending, non-conference game played in a tropical paradise.
"We've had to address that," Wulff said. "Really challenge them to see how mature they are, to see how they can come off a big, emotional game and respond.
"How are you going to play? Will you learn from this and come out and do it, or are you going to lay an egg?"
Wulff only wishes he was certain of the answer. With no classes this week, the Cougars bussed to Seattle on Wednesday, then flew to Honolulu on Thursday.
"They're fired up again because they won the Apple Cup," Hawaii coach Greg McMackin said. "I'm sure they're going to come over here and use this as their bowl game."
The Warriors must beat WSU (2-10) or No. 16 Cincinnati (9-2) next week at home to go to the Hawaii Bowl.
Wulff let his players have some free time to enjoy the beaches and whatnot, but now it's time to bang plastic helmets. Hawaii lost much of the talent off last year's 12-1 Sugar Bowl team, but the Warriors are 6-5 with two straight wins.
"Their defensive line is extremely athletic and quick," Wulff said. "Their linebacker corps is very good against the run."
Wulff was hopeful that key starters Jeshua Anderson (chest) and cornerback Tyrone Justin (ankle) will be able to play wide receiver and cornerback, respectively.
McMackin said he expects two versatile starters to miss the game: running back-slotback-punt returner Kealoha Pilares (foot) and cornerback-free safety/nickleback Ryan Mouton (high ankle). Pilares leads the Rainbows with seven touchdowns.
Kickoff: 8:05 p.m., Aloha Stadium, Honolulu.
TV: None.
Radio: 850 AM, 1090 AM.
Washington State: Paul Wulff (2-10, first year).
Hawaii: Greg McMackin (6-5, first year).
Players to watch
Washington State: WR Brandon Gibson (all-time WSU receiving yards leader needs 24 yards to crack the top 20 in Pac-10 history); MLB Greg Trent (senior ranks seventh in school history with 321 tackles, leads team this year with 86); QB Kevin Lopina (redshirt junior, playing in college games for the first time, has yet to throw a touchdown pass to offset 11 interceptions); OLT Vaughn Lesuma (senior from Hawaii is coming off perhaps his finest game of the season); CB Romeo Pellum (leads team with six pass breakups, tied for lead with two interceptions, third on team with 63 tackles).
Hawaii: MLB Solomon Elimimian (NFL prospect leads team with 91 tackles, holds school career record of 404 tackles); QB Greg Alexander (top-ranked junior college quarterback in the nation last year has completed 40 of 56 passes the past two games for 552 yards, five TDs, no interceptions); OLB Adam Leonard (65 tackles in 10 games); WR-KOR Malcolm Lane (sixth in nation with 29.9 yards per kickoff return; averages 18.5 yards per reception); DE David Veikune (leads team with 13.5 tackles and 13.5 tackles for loss).
Breaking Down the Game
Washington State: The Cougars must deal with the run-and-shoot offense, which features plenty of passing. Portland State, the only other run-and-shoot team WSU has faced, got blown out 48-9 by the Cougars early in the season. Hawaii is far better than the Vikings, of course. The Warriors have a superior running game to Portland State, but Hawaii doesn't have a dominant running back, and Kealoha Pilares and ex-Pasco High star Leon Wright-Jackson are nursing foot injuries.
Hawaii: McMackin, the former Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator, oversees an aggressive 4-3 defense that figures to apply heavy pressure to Lopina at times. The Warrriors and Cougars rank among the national "leaders" in turnovers, but Alexander has thrown 118 straight passes without an interception since being picked off twice by Florida in the season opener. Lane presents problems with his blistering speed.
Prediction: Hawaii 35, Washington State 2 4.

Salt Lake County's
Environmental Programs and Initiatives
The Mountain Accord project will holistically and collaboratively address issues associated with transportation, environmental protection, recreation and economic development within the Central Wasatch Mountains and adjoining valleys. We need your involvement!
Protecting, restoring and preserving our natural resources is one of the core goals of the County's mission to provide honest, open, efficient, and ethical government that is responsive to citizens. Salt Lake County (SLCo) is working to reduce air pollutant emissions, increase energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy in our facilities, and create a more sustainable environment. Below is an overview of SLCo's environmental programs and initiatives.
Sustainable Building and Business
SLCo is committed to reducing pollution and waste, conserve energy, and save money by building green and building smart. We also offer opportunities for local businesses to save money and energy by making energy improvements. Learn more about the County's sustainable buildings and business program.
Open Space & Urban Farming
The Open Space Program serves to protect and preserve land within the County with high conservation values benefiting our residents by providing areas for human respite, renewal, and recreation.
The purpose of the Urban Farming Program is to maximize the value of County-owned land for our residents by providing spaces for community gardens, commercial farming, and biofuel production. Learn more about these programs.
Energy-Efficiency and Renewables
Salt Lake County continues to find opportunities to decrease energy use and diversify our portfolio through solar photovoltaics (PV), geothermal, and energy efficiency initiatives. Learn more about what the County is doing to accomplish these goals.
The County's Recycling Information Office provides education and outreach to schools, community groups, local business, and individual residents regarding waste reduction and recycling practices. This office will also provide consultation with businesses to increase recycling and reduce waste. In addition, a Recycling Guide is published each year which lists contact information for household recycling programs in numerous cities within Salt Lake County. The Guide lists drop-off locations to safely dispose of household hazardous waste, florescent light tubes, electronic waste, prescription medications, glass recycling, packing styrofoam and peanuts, tires, and green waste. Finally the County initiated a car seat recycling program, Safe Kids Salt Lake County. This program provides six locations across the county where the public can drop off car seats for recycling. View the recycling guide. (34 KB PDF)
Learn more about how to properly dispose of your household hazardous waste and prescription medications.
Air Quality
Air pollution obstructs our ability to enjoy the beauty of our natural landscape, causes many health complications, and negatively contributes to climate change. Learn more about how the County is addressing these issues.
Water Quality
Blue Print Jordan River
This project is the first comprehensive look at the river's entire length. All 15 municipalities and three counties along the river are participating. Blueprint Jordan River aims to gather the most broadly supported ideas on how to enhance the river, surrounding trails, and the construction of new buildings. Learn more about the Blue Print Jordan River.
Water Quality Stewardship Plan
Completed in 2009, this plan provides a framework of goals and policies that will forge water quality stewardship consistent with the Clean Water Act and the needs of local residents. Receive more detailed information about this plan.
Watershed Planning and Restoration Program
The Watershed Planning & Restoration Program (WPRP) includes assessments and restoration efforts of streams and other waterways in the Jordan River watershed, stewardship planning, and educational outreach. Restoration objectives include bank stabilization, water quality protection, and enhanced natural vegetation and habitat. The annual Watershed Symposium brings together water quality experts, policy makers, environmental advocates, industry, academics, students, and the public. The Jordan River Watershed Council (JRWC) is dedicated to the ecological and economic sustainability of the Jordan River watershed through the promotion of stakeholder involvement. Quarterly meetings are planned and coordinated by the Watershed Program. Learn more.
The Stormwater Coalition
The Stormwater Coalition was formed to facilitate the cleanup of stormwater pollution in Salt Lake County by educating Salt Lake County residents about stormwater, what it is, why stormwater quality is important and methods to improve stormwater quality. The Coalition is a partnership of Salt Lake County, the Cities in the County (Salt Lake, West Valley, Sandy, Murray, Bluffdale, Riverton, Draper, Midvale, Holladay, Herriman, South Jordan, West Jordan, Taylorsville and South Salt Lake Cities), SLCo Health Department and the Utah Department of Transportation.

How to Start a New Life in a New School
Starting a new school can be very hard, and all you want to do is just fit in.. does that sound familiar? We all have had pretty similar situations, and we want to help you fit in to your new school and have a very comfortable life there!
1Study. Don't get too low on your grades;remember that the reason why you're there is to learn. Sometimes, when you are eager to fit in, you will pretend to act uneducated just for the attention, even if it's not conscious.Ad
2Find people you have things in common with. Although you can't necessarily be picky on the first day, be on the lookout for long-term friends, not just people who are looking to be nice to you to better their reputation.
3Get a new haircut or outfit. If you want, try slightly changing your appearance. Take the opportunity of starting a new school to keep the things about you that you love and get rid of the things that you're less than happy about.
4Be friendly. Introduce yourself to teachers and classmates. You don't need to be overbearing, but smiling and saying hi can help others realize that your quietness is shyness, not snootiness.
5Be yourself. It sounds cliché, but you don't need to dye your hair or start wearing tons of make up just to fit in. It might take a little while, but you'll find a group of friends who want to hang out with you, not someone you've created to try to be more "cool."Remember that there will be a new teacher.Ad
We could really use your help!
Poker Strategy?
interpersonal relationships?
Married Life?
Basic Swimming Techniques?
- Find something that you like and do it. Just don't go overboard.
- Be kind and helpful.
- Be confident and sure of yourself, so people won't bully you just because you're new and will want to be your friends.
- Don't do this exactly - remember to be yourself first. for all you know somebody in your class could have read this and tried to do this. Put some individuality in to it
Things You'll Need
- Hair straighteners (or get your hair layered)
- Internet, (to research other things you like)
- A T.V, you need to know what to talk about.

I went to Grap and Grain for brunch and it was absolutely amazing. I must admit being a born and raised New Yorker and brunch frequenter, it takes a lot to blow me away with brunch. Grape and Grain did just that! I had the Breakfast Pizza which was AMAZING. It is one of the best brunch items I have ever had. It was very hearty, filling, and the ingredients were super fresh. I also tried the homemade chicken sausage patties which were absolutely delicious (although a little small). Again, the ingredients were very fresh and you could tell that the patties were tuly homemade. My boyfriend had the stuffed french toast which was also great! The atmosphere is very cute- rustic wooden tables and benches, drinks served in mis-matched tea cups, etc. It is a very cozy adorable place. If you are looking for a delicious, unique, and super affordable brunch in the East Village then definitly go to Grape and Grain!!!

I celebrated my birthday with a few girlfriends last night and we had such a blast. The place was packed (in a good way) so I'm glad I made reservations. The service was amazing. Everyone was so friendly. Our server kept making sure we were happy and was really sweet. I had a friend who came a little late and no one from the restaurant made it into an issue. The music was all over the place but great! It somehow worked. The food was delicious. The pizza was good but I would recommend sharing several pizzas between people. One pizza with one topping can get old fast. Dessert was the best part. The apple tartin was the bomb. Cinnamon ice cream on top of an apple pastry... Yum. Cute and cozy with great energy. Loved it.

This week my best friend and I decided to try a different brunch place and she picked Grape and Grain. The restaurant was very cozy, inviting, and the music was good on the ear. We love brunch and this amazing place was definitely a great find. I ordered the Breakfast pizza and she ordered the Arturo. The menu said that both of our orders has sunny-side eggs on top which I found interesting. When our pizzas came each had 2 sunny-side eggs. One bite got me hooked, I loved it. The toppings were fresh and the yolk spreaded onto the slices causing our rectangular pizzas to take on a whole new dimension. Each bite was a yolk-sensation. I would recommend Grape and Grain to everyone. Oh yah, the pitcher of Mimosa we shared was quite refreshing. We love to drink and we know of several places that has AYCD brunch but we came out tipsy so i applaud Grape and Grain....helps that we saw our waitress pour what looked like 2 bottles of champaigne into our pitcher.

I had an 8pm reservation at Grape & Grain on a Wednesday night with 2 friends. Our table was ready when we got their and our waitress quickly asked us if we would like a drink. We had a delicious bottle of Malbec for only $30! After our drink and appetizer order our waitress seemed to have forgotten about us! We were very frustrated and disappointed in the service because this place has so much potential! The food was delicious, we had soft pretzels with pickles & mustard and 2 pizzas which were both equally scrumptious. I recommend going if you have a lot of patience.

I loved the atmosphere when we went for a Friday dinner-- very dark and intimate, with flickering candles, and lots of warmth coming from great conversation and a collection of people just glad to be there. It's a special thing to find. Everything we ordered was fantastic -- a portobello salad, the chartcuterie board, the short ribs, and a cheese plate. It all came with big plates of delicious bread. The wine was a great deal -- $9-$12 for a quarto, which was really 2 glasses. The waiter was covering all the tables solo, and yet still managed to provide great service. The one negative was when the bill came -- $120 for a few small plates and 2 quartos of wine each -- but that was the result of over-ordering food and not paying attention to the prices as much as anything. It was a wonderful, relaxing evening, with lots of pleasant suprises. I'll remember to tell my friends that I've found the perfect spot for their next date to impress.

WOW!!! An anti-Bama column from Scarbo and the Bham news.....In the words of Ron White....Who woulda thunk it? Sheez, Scarbo are you ever going to spit out those sour grapes?
woreeagle, you do realize that no one wants to hear your constant drivel about Bama, right? How would you know how easy it is to get into Bama? You are a fifth grader.....
My thoughts exactly Becky. I live in DeKalb county and there is at least eight inches of water standing in my yard!
Yawn.....Another Bama bashing party by Scarbo! Wow, who saw that coming? Get a life Kevin and report on something you love, like Barn sports!
It doesn't matter how many "plus" games they play, until they find a better way than using human polls to rank said teams there will be no fairness.....This year would have been LSU, Bama, Ok St, and Stanford....that is all well and good, but what about Oregon? They destroyed Stanford head-to-head....Until there is a fair way to rank the teams it will still just be bragging rights, not a Championship....
But not as bad as they beat the barn! LOL! RTR!!!
LMAO @ all the sour grapes AuBarn fans rooting for OK St and LSWHOO....It's gonna be a bad day for you people on January 9th! RTR!!!!! The reason LSU and Barn fans didn't want Bama to get another shot is because they both know the first "win" by LSWHO was a gimme by the blind refs. The outcome will be much more decisive this time! Bama 38-10
If there were a plus one this year, lets say Bama plays Stanford and LSU plays Ok St. Does anyone in there right mind think that Bama and LSU wouldn't still be playing one week later? Get real, a plus one would solve absolutely nothing this year.
Well, then you have nothing to worry about cause AU will never dominate or have the respect that Bama does. Now put your blocks away and go to bed.
@AFTiger.....Exactly which team was undefeated and got left out? LSU is the only undefeated, excluding Houston (who doesn't even belong in the conversation with LSU). You are a sour grapes Auburn fan who has her panties in a wad because without Scam your team sux!
Wow, Scarbo, don't you have them tiger stripped undies all in a wad today? Sheez! Maybe we should just publicly execute anyone who bad mouths good ole wholesome, never do anything wrong, Auburn University.....Give me a break!
Newton is a good ball player, I don't dispute that, but lets wait and see how he fairs against some of the NFL elite, not the Cardinals, before we crown him the second coming.....
Miss St 50
Auburn 14
So, how Bama backs did against Auburn is the measuring stick here? Good grief! Mark Ingram is a Heisman trophy winner, he deserves to be here. Rudy Johnson was a great back, but he chose to only hang around one year so he does not belong, because one year is not long enough to proclaim best of all time. My list would be #1) Bo Jackson (No question, best of all time) #2) Hershel Walker #3)Emmit Smith #4) Carnell Williams #5) Mark Ingram

You want an unbiased opinion about Auburn recruiting and you ask two Auburn columnists?? Brilliant job of reporting guys! Why not go ask Nancy Pelosi if she thinks Obama will be reelected???
I have tried to keep my opinions to myself on this Cam issue but I am sick and tired of all you self righteous Auburn fans acting like your school is squeeky clean! If you think Auburn, Alabama, and every other school in the NCAA doesn't break rules and skate the gray areas, you need to see a doctor because you have a serious case of CranialRectitus! Why in the name of everything holy would someone turn down an offer to play for $180,000 and just out of the goodness of their heart agree to play for nothing? Not to mention the fact that the coach of the school offering the $180,000 was his coordinator at Florida. I know ausouthal is gonna have some stupid comeback that will make no sense so fire away. This is just my opinion.......
I live in DeKalb county in northeast Alabama. Our death toll is around 40 and still climbing each day. I didn't see his smiling face up here....why? Because all the television cameras were in Tuscaloosa. And all he really wants is face time!
Another Bham news retard just trying to stir the pot! I wish nerds who don't like football wouldn't be sports writers!

5.0 out of 5 stars What a life,
EA Solinas "ea_solinas" (MD USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sun Giant (1+ Tracks) (Audio CD)
"What a life I lead in the summer/ What a life I lead in the spring..." a chorale sings, solemnly echoing from the speakers.
Well, when a band is just starting out, they have to get your attention somehow. And the Fleet Foxes manage that at the start of their debut EP, "Sun Giant" -- a whirl of exquisitely baroque, elusively pretty rock-pop melodies. And most of it sounds like they recorded it inside a cathedral, or some other big echoey space.
It opens with the title track, a solemn harmony of choir-like vocals accompanied only by a plucked mandolin. "What a life I lead when the sun breaks free/as a giant torn from the clouds/what a life indeed when that ancient seed/is a berry watered and plowed," the Fleet Foxes intone, sounding very innocent and awestruck.
Then the tone shifts with the bittersweet "Drops in the River," with its eerie, vaguely medieval flavour ("On the shores, speak to the ocean and the sea"). "English House" drops into a catchy folk-pop number shimmering with woobly synth and nimble countryish riffs. Think a folksier Grizzly Bear, if you must compare it to something.
The rock sound becomes a bit more organic after that, with the smooth, tight pop melody of "Mykonos," but it's still punctuated with jangly guitars and soaring harmonies. And "Innocent Son" rounds the EP off with a subtle, wistful little folk melody that laments, "some twisted thorn tells me you saw me in the night with another..."
This dramatic intro to the Fleet Foxes -- as well as the whole EP -- does exactly what it's supposed to do: lures you in with beautiful music, and stokes excitement for their future music. I had a lot of trouble figuring out anything much to criticize, because the blended styles, instrumentals and lyrics are so polished and heartfelt in their beauty. Eventually, I sort of gave up.
They don't even have a particular style -- instead we get a blend of rock, folk and electronica. Earthy acoustics sit side-by-side with shimmering electric guitars and growly string melodies, and the wibbly electronica meshes seamlessly with the ringing, jangly melodies. Occasionally they throw something extra into the mix, like that mandolin.
Robin Pecknold's high, sweet voice rings through most of the songs, although at times the band opts for a chorus-sound -- think postpubescent choirboys having a reunion. And they already have a knack for lyrics full of beauty, sorrow and evocative language ("Rust suddenly falling beside me on a ghost of a morning/riding in sorrow to the harbor/far behind me, the bodies of my friends...").
The Fleet Foxes spin up a truly lovely, powerful little EP, crammed with emotion, poetry and plenty of vocal depth. "Sun Giant" really does shine.

5.0 out of 5 stars CSN, definately without the Young.,
This review is from: Sun Giant (1+ Tracks) (Audio CD)
Nice folky earthy ballads, with great blend of voices. Like CSN and the Beach Boys suddenly became monastic monks devoting themselves to singing about the mysteries of nature.
With some pretty good electric guitar thrown in for good measure. What the Akron/Family SHOULD have been.

Powerful lyrics, powerful songs. What else can I say. This indie band is very lyrical, reminds me a bit of past singers/bands such as ELP and the Byrds. Very worthwhile listening to.

The IMBA Epics
IMBA has used the Epic® designation for more than a decade. With the addition of new Model Trail classifications in recent years, IMBA has returned the Epics to the original intent of the designation—demanding, singletrack adventures in a natural setting. The current Epics celebrate true backcountry riding experiences that are technically and physically challenging, more than 80 percent singletrack and at least 20 miles in length. All of theses Epics offer amazing opportunities to interact with the natural world. Existing Epics that meet this criteria will retain Epic status. We created an IMBA Epics Hall of Fame to recognize rides we have honored in the past, but that no longer meet the new criteria.
Submit an online nomination if you think you know a trail worthy of Epic status.
Here are the 2014 Epics:
- Australian Alpine Epic, Australia (pictured) — Built by the resort team at Mt. Buller, the country's only Ride Center, this half- to full-day, 35-mile ride delivers a stunning journey through backcountry wild lands.
- Cannell Trail, Sherman Pass, California — This 26-mile ride in the Sierra Mountains is remote and can take anywhere from three hours to a full day to complete. Highlights include "The Plunge," a near-continuous descent of 5,000 feet.
- Goodwater Trail, Lake Georgetown, Texas — This 26-mile loop circumnavigates Lake Georgetown (near Austin), offering sweeping views of the lake as it weaves through cedar stands and cactus-strewn fields of limestone. The hills are minimal but the trail is very technical.
- Grand Targhee Loop, Wyoming — This 25-mile ride is on 100 percent singletrack and begins and ends conveniently at the Grand Targhee Resort. It offers alpine meadows blanketed in wildflowers, forests of pine and aspen trees, and jaw-dropping views of the Tetons.
- Lake Ouachita Vista Trail, Arkansas — This trail offers 45 miles of singletrack along the southern shore of Lake Ouachita in west-central Arkansas. Prepare for a deep woods experience that includes panoramic views of the lake and its emerald islands.
- Upper Buffalo, Arkansas — The Upper Buffalo Mountain Bike Trail offers about 40 miles of singletrack surrounding the highest point in the Ozark Mountains. This gem of Midwest riding laces around the headwaters of the Buffalo National River on a mixture of narrow, hand-built singletrack and machine-cut flow trails.

Direct Energy Buzz – December 23rd edition
It's almost Christmas weekend! We hope everyone is getting into the holiday spirit and is stress free. We have been having a blast keeping you up to date on the latest holiday gift guides and energy saving tips, so check out what you've missed if you aren't following us on Facebook or Twitter yet.
On Monday, we discussed whether you should invest in real or artificial trees this season. But the truth is, according to the American Christmas Tree Association, both are great choices! See how your choice affected the environment.
We also had some hometown excitement! Houston was just ranked the No. 2 city for mergers and acquisitions for the first three-quarters of the year! The energy sector dominated with other industries also taking the spotlight as well.
On Tuesday, we were back on our holiday helpful hints kick. It seems this time of year our outlets are our best friends holding everything from lights to chargers to cooking appliances. But are you sure you know how much your outlet can take? Now's the time to double-check! We recommend using them to 80% of their capacity maximum.
Are you dreaming of a white Christmas? On Wednesday we told you how you should be thinking about a green Christmas instead! Going green can also put a little extra "green" in your pocket to (if you catch our drift).
Have you ever thought of Santa as a particularly eco-friendly man? Thursday we shared what Santa's carbon footprint would be. We think this is cute and hysterical.
Our final days are approaching to enter the Direct Energy "Tis the Season" Sweepstakes! There are still a few of the best prizes left, including an Apple iPad2, so your time to enter is now.
Happy holidays to everyone! We hope you get to partake in your favorite traditions this year. And, share them with us! We'd love to know how you choose to spend the days. Enjoy your time off and remember to check in with us next week too!

Let Us Now Praise Funky Structures
Amy Forsyth, associate professor of art and architecture at Lehigh, was mentioned in an article about updating worn structures. She and painter Charley Farrell share a five-acre farm with a half-dozen outbuildings hear Bechtelsville, Pa. "In three years they have turned a garage into a woodworking shop and a barn annex into a painting studio with a new sheet-metal roof," the article said. "They have kept the still-functioning outhouse as is. The couple tells dinner guests to bring snow boots for the requisite tour, tromping by lantern from one building to the next. They may next turn the main part of the barn into a yoga or dance studio, Forsyth said, and perhaps convert the pigpen into a dining pavilion or a cabana for an above-ground pool on the property."

Breaking the Kashmir Impasse
Rajan Menon, professor of international relations at Lehigh, wrote an article on India and Pakistan, comparing the countries to two hamsters running on parallel wheels. "Both critics and admirers of Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf will agree on one thing: The man does not lack boldness or an appetite for risk-taking," Menon wrote. "…The upshot isn't that Musharraf has forged the magic key to unlock the Kashmir dispute; it's that, in the context of an improved India-Pakistan relationship, he has produced some new ideas. And according to Farooq, Musharraf's proposals will be on the agenda this week when the Pakistani Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz visits New Delhi. By shifting the grounds for negotiations, Musharraf has adroitly lobbed the ball into India's court."

Private Effects?
Perry Zirkel, professor of education and law in the College of Education at Lehigh, wrote an article on a case where a high school math teacher in the Cherry Valley-Springfield Central School District was charged with an inappropriate relationship with a female student. As the discipline for this offense, the hearing officer fined him $3,500 and was suspended in 1998 for allegedly sexually harassing another female student and in1999, was arrested for stalking a former student. "The case appears to provide various legal lessons for school districts and their employees," Zirkel wrote.

Thanksgiving Snoozers
Elizabeth Scofield, director of Lehigh University's Zoellner Arts Center, was recently quoted in an article about Thanksgiving sleepiness. It has been popular recently to blame the sleepiness on the amino acid tryptophan, a natural sedative found in turkey meat. But researchers now say tryptophan works effectively only on an empty stomach. Thanksgiving ''is supposed to be a festive occasion when people are happy to be together,'' says Elizabeth M. Scofield, who teaches etiquette courses at Lehigh. Napping, she says, shows ''utter indifference'' to that notion. ''What kind of impression do you want to leave?'' Scofield says. ''To be the son-in-law who overate and fell asleep and snored?''

Chamber Committee Grows with Small Firms
Sally Handlon, program director at the Small Business Development Center at Lehigh, was quoted in an article about the Lehigh Valley's previous dominance by large employers 25 years ago. "People don't come with the same basic skills that they did 10 to 15 years ago,'' said Handlon. ''People tended to have knowledge of business process that is not as evident today.'' Handlon said that for example, some younger employees have become so used to relying on technology that they are unable to think on their feet when the computer system fails.

The primary objective of the center is to create a living laboratory that establishes partnerships with schools, parents, and community service providers to enhance the lives of individuals with disabilities.

Godzilla Turns Fifty
Robert Rosenwein, professor of sociology at Lehigh, was quoted in an article about Godzilla turning fifty. He said he is not necessarily a devotee of the Godzilla films but is familiar with the basic story and why it has had an impact on our culture. "Godzilla came out of Japan in the early 1950s and clearly represents their fears of the historic bombings. Godzilla arose out of this and carries the message that if you mess with the atom, it wreaks havoc on you," Rosenwein said. "Godzilla" -- initially "Gojira" before the name was changed for Western tongues to appreciate -- was released in Japan in 1954 and re-released in America in April 1956 with Raymond Burr and redubbed dialogue. It had a message Americans quickly understood. "The Japanese fear is not just isolated to them. It's a shared fear -- a fear we shared during the Cold War," Rosenwein explained.

The world's best motocross racers traveled to upstate New York this past weekend to resume their battle for the coveted 450 and 250-class titles at one of the most historic venues in motocross, as Unadilla hosted the ninth round of the 2011 AMA Pro Motocross series and some of the best racing of the series thus far.
Red Bull KTM
After a two-week break from racing, Red Bull's Andrew Short headed into Unadilla refreshed and confident after gaining another spot in the 450-class standings following a solid top-10 ride at round number eight in Washougal, Washington, moving him into sixth in the standings.
"It was nice having a couple weeks off from racing," Short commented about the break in the schedule. "I got to spend some time with my family, and also attend the WPS dealer show and Red Bull Loretta Lynn's Amateur National. It was great to mingle with dealers and young riders, and be the one to watch the riding for a couple days. Now, it's back to business, and I am ready to get back to the racing this weekend."
When the racing got underway at Unadilla, Shorty immediately put his Red Bull KTM into the top-ten after a solid start, but unfortunately was forced to retire from the moto after only three laps due to a mechanical issue.
In Moto #2, Short came back strong to secure a respectable eighth-place finish, and continues to sit in the sixth spot in the championship points standings as the series heads to Southwick.
Check out the trailer for Shorty's "After Hours" video:
After Hours - The Trailer: Featuring Andrew Short from Kyle Cowling on Vimeo.
After a hard-fought seventh-place finish in Moto #1, Short's Red Bull KTM teammate, Mike Alessi, rocketed out of the gate to grab an impressive holeshot to kick off the second moto, and proceeded to lead for nearly three laps before being displaced by a hard-charging Ryan Villopoto.
After battling inside the top three for several more laps, Alessi eventually dropped back to fourth, where he would finish the moto some nine laps later. With just three rounds left to go in the series, Alessi is sitting comfortably inside the top five in the championship points standings.
Craig Back In Action
Troy Lee Designs/Lucas Oil/Honda's Christian Craig was back in action after missing a round due to an injured wrist, and he looked very strong early on. After securing a second-place start to get the day off on the right track, Craig put up a respectable battle for the first few laps of the race. Showing a lack of rhythm and fitness due to the time off of the bike, however, Craig eventually faded back to ninth by the end of the moto.
Unfortunately for Christian, the second moto didn't go quite as well, as he took a rock to the face that required an impromptu pit stop for a change of goggles. Craig rejoined the race, but was only able to scrape together a 22nd-place finish for 15th overall on the day.
250-Class Highlights
In the 250 class, Red Bull KTM's Marvin Musquin turned in a solid sixth place overall after 7-8 moto finishes, and TLD/Honda's Cole Seely secured a top-10 finish after battling his way to 9-11 moto scores.
The series now takes another weekend off before returning for the Moto-X 338 National in Southwick, Massachusetts, where the women of the WMX series will also return for Round 6 of their series.

Vice President Joe Biden is planning a gun control event next Tuesday at the White House.
It's Biden's first event focusing specifically on gun control since a major Senate vote on expanding background checks failed in April, although the White House held a mental health conference earlier in June. Strengthening mental health care was among the executive actions President Barack Obama took to reduce gun violence after the December shooting in Newtown, Conn.
An invitation obtained by The Associated Press says Biden will deliver remarks. The focus will be President Barack Obama's plan to protect communities and children by reducing gun violence.
Biden and Obama have said they're not done pushing gun control even though momentum has stalled in Congress. Last week, Biden sent an email to Democrats saying he has complete faith Congress will pass meaningful gun laws if everything is done to make it happen.
The White House confirmed the event will take place, but wouldn't disclose any details.
