'Purple Paul' gives archive to UE, recalls plane crash
EVANSVILLE - Paul Werner started his day on Dec. 14, 1977, the same as he did every other one.
"I know I went to work and stopped to get a couple papers," said Werner. "It was just real sad."
The night before, the University of Evansville's team plane had crashed on its way to the Aces' men's basketball game at Middle Tennessee State, leaving all 29 passengers dead.
A community wept as the program, which that season had just transitioned to Division I, started over.
Werner held on to those newspapers and many more.
"The next year I thought, 'This is a new beginning. I may as well just start doing this,'" he said. "And I've done it ever since."
Werner recently donated piles of three-ring binders — boxes and boxes worth of finely preserved articles from every Aces game since the plane crash — to the university's athletic department.
The collection chronicles five NCAA tournament appearances, the coach Jim Crews era and Scott Haffner's 65-point game, as well as the less-remembered days of Aces hoops, both through stories and box scores.
"We're definitely going to keep it for archiving and make a project out of it," said Bob Pristash, Evansville's sports information director. "We'll look through it and see what we can learn about stuff that's been forgotten over the last 35 years.
"Not too many schools get the opportunity to have an archive like this that's going to be right underneath our desk. I look forward to going through it."
Werner, a Reitz High School graduate and Air Force veteran, started his Aces fanhood because of another newspaper clipping he's kept to this day.
While serving overseas in places such as Japan, Korea, the Philippines and Vietnam, he ran across the headline "Evansville wins small college title" from one of former coach Arad McCutchan's five championship teams.
"Guys from the east coast to the west coast saw that and asked, 'How'd they go undefeated?'" Werner recounted. "I said, 'I don't know, but I'm going to find out when I get back.'"
Werner attended his first Evansville game in 1966 and made attending a habit not long after.
Then came Dec. 13, 1977.
Today marks the 35th anniversary of the crash, memorialized on campus through the "Weeping Basketball" that's engraved with the names of everyone killed when the DC-3 plane went down.
"I was just watching that game that night," Werner said. "I think it was Purdue and Louisville, if I remember right."
He does. The Cardinals beat the 17th-ranked Boilermakers 68-66.
"It was around five till eight, and it came across that Notre Dame went down in a crash," Werner continued. "Then five minutes later, they changed it to Evansville. Well, I just didn't know what to think. That just hit me awfully hard because I knew these guys."
Werner had the same relationship with that team as with every Aces squad since, even to this day.
"I'd shake hands whenever they came in," he said. "I'd be sitting in a chair and shake hands with them.
"If you're a fan, the crash was hard to take. It just doesn't happen. It takes a while to get over it."
Werner still goes to every game — most times showing up hours early — and even travels with the team on some road trips.
Few around the program actually know him now as Paul Werner. His shirt instead reads: "Purple Paul."
Evansville coach Marty Simmons said Werner's enthusiasm is contagious within the program, pointing out last season's comeback win at Miami (Ohio) in particular.
"So we're in the locker room, and we're acting like 3-year-olds, jumping up and down like bobbleheads," said Simmons, whose Aces playing career is also chronicled in Werner's collection. "There's Purple Paul right in the middle of it, and after four or five jumps he starts grabbing his back and he's like, 'I've got to quit doing this! I might bend the rods in my back!'
"You can't put a price tag on the emotion and the feelings that you have in moments like that. That's the beauty of college athletics, being on a team and having supporters truly care for you the way our fans do."

Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) - Assessing Metallic Pipelines
Magnetic flux leakage (MFL) is an electromagnetic method of nondestructive testing that is used to detect corrosion, pitting and wall loss in lined and unlined metallic pipelines
- Potable Water
- Raw Water
- Wastewater
- Oil & Gas
Pipe Materials
Pipe Diameters
8" (200mm) and larger
Case Studies
The most accurate method of metallic pipeline condition assessment is MFL in-line inspection (ILI) using advanced nondestructive electromagnetic methods to scan the full circumference and length of the pipeline for damage by corrosion and other causes.
This technology, commonly known as 'smart pigging', has become the industry standard condition assessment vehicle in unlined steel pipelines in the oil and gas industry.
Until now, the presence of mortar lining in water pipelines has limited the accuracy and use of ILI inspection and hindered development of practical ILI methods for large diameter, mortar-lined metallic pipelines. With MFL from Pure, pipeline owners can now clearly see through mortar linings up to an inch thick.
What is MFL?
With MFL technology, permanent magnets are used to temporarily magnetize the steel pipe and the magnetic field changes are recorded and analyzed. The magnetic flux is uniform if there are no flaws in the wall of the pipe. If internal or external flaws are present, such as pitting, corrosion or other forms of damage, the magnetic flux is distorted beyond the wall of the pipe, and this distortion or 'leakage' is measured by Hall Effect sensors.
See Through Lined Pipes
Pure's MFL tools inspect lined pipe through liner up to an inch thick. These tools have industry-leading computational capacity and speed, world-leading inspection resolution of the pipe wall and unique data analysis algorithms using advanced applied mathematics to accurately determine defect characteristics and shape.
Benefits of Pure MFL
- Provides high resolution data of entire circumference of the pipe wall allowing for comprehensive structural evaluations of the pipe
- MFL tool is capable of collecting high resolution data through interior mortar linings
- Recognized as an industry standard for metallic pipe wall assessment
- May be deployed manned or free-swimming
Available Tools
Pure offers a wide variety of MFL tools for assessing the condition of metallic pipelines. These range from large diameter manned entry tools to free-swimming small diameter tools. Contact your Pure representative to find out which solution is best for your needs.
Extra High Resolution (XHR)
Our MFL tools use Extra High Resolution (XHR) data in order to provide a visibly improved view of defects and better analytical characterization of their size. XHR is the newest generation of MFL tools where systems have a very high number of sensors. Hall Effect sensors are positioned at 1/4" (6.25mm) intervals along the circumference of the tool, and in conjunction with higher sampling rates, guarantee maximum data resolution.
Extra High Resolution (XHR) MFL means:
- Better magnets and better sensors
- Tighter sensor spacing for maximum resolution
- Uniform sensor spacing on the entire circumference
- Higher sampling rates for the best quality data
Featured Projects
State-of-the-art Extra High Resolution Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) Tool Scans California Utility's Pipeline
Built in the 1950's, this 73 and 76-inch mortar lined steel pipeline serves an important link between Metropolitan Water District and the San Diego County Water Authority. The inspection employed a custom high resolution magnetic flux leakage (MFL) tool, owned by the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC), to detect corrosion, pitting and wall loss in the lined metallic pipeline.
Hetch Hetchy Water and Power Project (SFPUC) - Magnetic Flux Leakage
San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) operates three parallel cement mortar-lined steel pipelines 47.5 miles long, otherwise known as the San Joaquin Pipelines, which range in size from 56- to 78-inches in diameter. In 2008, the SFPUC contracted Pure Technologies to perform the in-line "smart pigging" inspection of the lines utilizing advanced MFL technology.
Data Analysis
The highest quality tools produce the highest quality data. The world-class data gathered by Pure's MFL tools provides a clean and clear view of pipeline conditions.

North of the Red River, we love us some Kendrick Perkins.
We invite him to our kids' birthday parties, and give him great nicknames like Gran Torino and Sergeant Scowl, and go crazy when he shocks us by making two foul shots.
North of the Red River, we love us some Kendrick Perkins.
We invite him to our kids' birthday parties, and give him great nicknames like Gran Torino and Sergeant Scowl, and go crazy when he shocks us by making two foul shots.
But south of the Red, and frankly anywhere past Oklahoma soil except the commonwealth of Massachusetts, Perk is not so esteemed.
He's Lex Luthor. Or Darth Vader. He's Beelzebub. As popular as a tax collector.
Perkins plays hard, screens hard and fouls hard. Too hard, sometimes. That profanity Mav coach Rick Carlisle uttered on national TV the other night? The "dirty bull…"? He wasn't talking about Daequan Cook.
Before Serge Ibaka clawed Dirk Nowitzki across the face and Irked Dirk responded with a forearm to the back, and before the Perk & Dirk waltz that threatened to go all cage fight, the tone was set by a couple of Gran Torino screens.
Screens is one word for it. Body block is another. Think bulldozer leveling a forest.
Perkins popped Dallas' Shawn Marion with a couple of picks that sent Marion's body hurling one direction, his head another. He looked like he was in the middle of one of those Hollywood saloon fights.
One looked legal. Both looked lethal.
Derek Fisher, who in a previous life played in Laker-Celtic death matches against Perkins, said he's been on the wrong side of a couple of Gran Torino picks.
"Anytime Kendrick sets a screen, you're on the wrong side," Fisher said. "In practice, games, whatever."
Delonte West has gone the other way. He and Perk once were basketball brothers, on Doc Rivers' sabertooth Celtic teams. Now West is a Mav in this Western Conference playoff series that resumes Thursday night.
"He's not intentionally trying to hurt nobody out there," West said. "We're still good friends off the court. But we're enemies on the court.
"In Doc Rivers' system, he breeds tough grizzly bears. Doc knows how to bring the best out of you."
That's the lab that hatched Sergeant Scowl. That Boston team a few years ago that had Kevin Garnett and Tony Allen and Perkins could win any alley fight and more than its share of guerrilla uprisings.
"We learned from a great coach that knows how to bring the best out of you on the defensive end," West said. "I respect what he does."
No way of knowing if most NBA players feel the same. If you play with or ever played with Perkins, you salute him. The others don't want to go waking up the grumpy old troll with accusations that he takes physicality too far.
"In all the battles teams that I've been on, in the Finals and those things, I never got the sense he was playing dirty," Fisher said.

Center helps seniors stay fit
HUNTINGTON -- Ask Poppy Cartee why she takes exercise classes regularly at the Underwood Senior Center on Huntington's Southside, and her response is quick and simple: "To stay young. I'm 80, so..." she says with a smile.
Ask Lucy Duba, and she'll tell you it's because it helps with breathing and staying active, and because the teachers know what they're doing.
They're two of a roomful of seniors staying on top of their health -- and having a good time doing it -- at the Underwood Center. Located at 632 9th Ave., the center offers free Senior Wellness Program exercises for strength, flexibility and cardiovascular health at 1 p.m. every Monday and Wednesday, and 1:30 p.m. Fridays. It also offers a line dancing exercise class at 2 p.m. every Monday and Wednesday. Tai-Chi for health and well-being is at 1 p.m. every Friday.
Some seniors, like Cartee, take more than one class.
"These are some of the more healthy people in Huntington because they're doing this," Duba said, motioning to her fellow seniors in the class.
Instructor Sandie Ruggles has been teaching exercise there since 2003. Her class focuses on strength, flexibility and balance, which she hopes will help prevent falls. She sneaks in a little tai chi, which along with balance and flexibility, helps with lung capacity, she said.
"We laugh and carry on," said Ruggles, who lives in Chesapeake, Ohio. "It's good for socializing. You're not sitting at home. A lot of seniors live alone and to be around other people, I think, is good for your mental health."
The classes are open to seniors who live anywhere in the region, not just Cabell County, she said. For more information, call 304-529-3673.

Duke men rout Winthrop in NCAA tennis opener; Vols up next
The 11th-seeded Duke men's tennis team took an early lead with solid play in doubles and outlasted Winthrop in singles to earn a 4-0 victory over the 73rd-ranked Eagles Saturday at Ambler Tennis Stadium.
The Blue Devils (20-6) advance to the second round of the NCAA Championship, where they will face Tennessee Sunday, May 11 at 2 p.m.
"We took care of business today, and I thought it was good that we got pushed in some spots," said Duke head coach Ramsey Smith. "We had a couple guys in some tough pressure situations and they came through. I think that will help us for tomorrow against Tennessee."
The Blue Devils came out strong in doubles, claiming the point with a pair of convincing wins on courts two and three. In the No. 2 contest, junior Jason Tahir and sophomore Josh Levine cruised to an 8-1 decision over the Eagles' Steven Patrick and Tremayne Mitchell to improve to 8-2 on the season. The Duke duo of sophomore Bruno Semenzato and redshirt junior Cale Hammond followed suit on court three, topping Juan Pablo Boada and Corey Decandia of Winthrop, 8-2. Semenzato and Hammond moved to 4-1 with the win.
The 51st-ranked pair of senior Fred Saba and junior Raphael Hemmeler was on serve at 3-all against Dylan Comerford and Peter Nagovnak of the Eagles when that No. 1 contest was abandoned.
Leading 1-0 heading into singles play, the Blue Devils doubled that score after Hemmeler rolled to a 6-0, 6-1 result over Winthrop's Patrick at the No. 3 position. Hemmeler reached the 20-win mark for the third time in as many seasons at Duke, sitting at 20-10 overall and 8-3 at the No. 3 spot.
Tahir, the 32nd-ranked player in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association's Division I singles poll, surrendered just two points en route to winning his first set against Yuta Hirokawa of the Eagles on court one. After falling behind 3-0 to start the second set, Tahir battled back to close out in straight sets, 6-0, 6-4. The Blue Devil junior moved his season ledger to 23-9 overall and 14-9 at the No. 1 position.
With Duke needing just one more point, the Eagles turned up the pressure on the remaining courts. A little while later, freshman TJ Pura edged Winthrop's Michael Chen in a second set tiebreak on court six, 7-3, to clinch the match for Duke. Pura improved to 22-6 in singles and 9-1 at the No. 6 slot.
"Tournament tennis is different than anything you get during the regular season since it's 'survive and advance,'" Pura said. "You've just got to compete every point. You definitely feel a little bit more nerves than normal ... You've also got to expect your opponents to play their best tennis. Credit to Winthrop for giving us a tough fight today."
The contests on courts four and five were in third sets when the match ended, while 44th-ranked Saba was leading Comerford on court two, 7-5, 5-1.
"In singles, we won half the first sets 6-0 and looked to be in a really good position," Smith said. "I think it was a combination of us relaxing just a little bit and Winthrop fighting extremely well. It ended up being their last match of the season, and for their seniors, it was their last college tennis match. They fought really hard and pushed us, and that last point was tough."
The Eagles concluded their 2014 campaign with a final record of 16-10.
"It was exciting to see how our guys fought back after losing the doubles point and falling behind in the first singles set to keep competing and trying hard to have a chance there at the end," said Winthrop head coach Andrew Stubbs. "It says a lot about what we are building here [at Winthrop]. These guys have come a long way, and I am looking forward to see how we continue to develop next year."
Duke and the 20th-ranked Volunteers will meet for the second time this season Sunday at 2 p.m. Tennessee held off a late charge by Elon in Saturday's earlier contest to advance by a 4-1 score.

Elephants have a long history of interaction with people, and an important place in many cultures.
has been practised since at least 30,000 years ago, when Palaeolithic people in Europe made tools and ornaments out of mammoth tusk. Ivory is hard, fine-grained, and has an elasticity that makes it excellent for carving: skilled craftspeople can produce objects of great beauty. Countless functional objects have been made throughout history: piano keys and billiard balls were one of the main uses in the West, and in recent decades, the ornamental 'signature seal' of Japan has become a major end-product.
The earliest evidence of elephant domestication is in the third millennium BC in the Indus Valley of India. The initial domestication was probably for purposes of traction, tree-felling and porterage; this usage continues today in parts of southeast Asia, although it is declining. Elephants were formerly captured from the wild, either singly in pits or as family units in stockades; now they are bred and trained from calves. An elephant can recognise and respond to 30 or more commands issued by its mahout, or driver.
Soon after their domestication, elephants were pressed into military service. In 326 BC, the Indian king Porus, with 200 elephants in his army, was famously defeated by Alexander. A typical battle formation of the Vedas included 45 elephants, which were the first to charge, throwing the enemy into disorder and knocking down stockades. Kings and princes hunted from elephant-back, a practice taken over with enthusiasm by European colonizers. In general, elephants came to embody royalty, largely because of the high price of their capture and maintenance.
The elephant also plays a prominent part in the Hindu pantheon. Airavata was the elephant mount of Lord Brahma, creator of the universe. Two elephants were the massive pillars of the world and bore the earth on their enormous heads. Ganesh, the elephant god, is one of the best-loved of all Hindu deities: as the Remover of Obstacles and Lord of Beginnings, he is invoked at the start of any undertaking. The worship of Lord Ganesh originated in the third or fourth century AD, and created a strong ethos against the killing of elephants. In Buddhist countries, especially in Indochina, the very rare white elephant was revered as an incarnation of the Buddha; when captured, it was ministered to with the utmost care.

June 29, 2012 11 Comments
Garry Fraser is an Edinburgh based filmmaker who started in short film and is now moving onto features. Garry has a colourful past that you are welcome to read about here, but he shouldn't be defined by that past. He has gone on to make some very interesting and hard hitting films from his unique world view. Garry is definitely 'one to watch', everyone that I spoke to at this year's Edinburgh International Film Festival had heard of Garry or knew him and it is only a matter of time before he gets his big break. We are delighted to be hosting Garry's short film Muirhouse Christmas at July's Write Shoot Cut screening night where the man himself will be in attendance to give a Q&A. Read more of this post

3 tablespoons
1 pound
firm tofu, sliced into 1/4 inch slices
2 cups
whole wheat flour
1 cup
1/4 cup
dry white wine
2 cubes
vegetable bouillon
4 tablespoons
prepared mustard
1/4 cup
This recipe is a great way to get more tofu in your diet! I used silken, or Japanese style, tofu so I froze the tofu, then thawed it and (gently) squeezed out the excess water before I dredged it in the flour. This gives the tofu a chewier, more meat-like texture and keeps it from turning into mush when you cook it. I didn't have any trouble getting the flour to stick.
I love honey mustard, but this recipe was AWFUL! I followed the suggestions of other reviews and coated my tofu in egg and made the sauce seperately. Whew, am I glad that I did! I ended up not using the sauce because it was inedible and I made a completely different sauce.

Really delicious! Maybe a bit tricky if you're new to tofu - definitely PRESS it first (half hour or more under a weighted plate) and it'll be fine. I didn't think my sauce was going to be thick eough but it thickened beautifully when I added the honey-mustard; also worried about the tofu breaking up but it held up fine. Even my toddler ate hers all up in a rice bowl! I used just one bouillon cube and loved the flavor.
Tasted great! A few suggestions that I found helpful. 1-use fresh tofu if you can find it (a chinese grocery may have it. It tastes MUCH better). 2-press or freeze the tofu to take out some of the water.
I didn't have much trouble getting the flour to stick..just threw the tofu and flour in a tupperware dish and shook it around a little.
Served it with noodles...yum. I liked it a lot!
You have no idea how good this is. My children love it. It is labor intensive, but the results are excellent.
I have made it with and without the wine. I used more water when I didn't use the wine, and I couldn't really tell the taste difference.
This was a great recipe. I pressed the tofu for two hours prior to cutting it up. I would have frozen it first if I had time as that makes for a meatier texture. I cut the tofu into small chunks for easier browning. I also used canola oil instead of butter to lower the fat. I took the tofu out after it browned to drain and made the sauce in the same pan. I did thicken the sauce with a cornstarch and water mixture because mine seemed to thin. I added the tofu back in at the end to heat through. I served mine over brown rice with chopped green onions on the top for garnish. Was very tasty. Thank you.
I thought this recipe was fantastic. I followed the advice of other reviews by cooking the sauce separately. To jazz it up a bit I added fresh chopped rosemary and thyme to the flour to give it an herb crust and cut the tofu into large tofu "steaks" rather than cubes. I lightly drizzled the sauce over the entire plate and then laid the tofu over pan seared garlic asparagus (another recipe that I got from this site!). I then drizzled a bit more sauce on top of the tofu. Enjoy!
This was one of the first tofu recipies I tried. I loved Honey Mustard Chicken but then became a vegetarian, so I couldn't have it. I was grateful to find this recipe and share it with a few friends who were willing to try tofu. I usually adjust the measurements for the sauce so I have extra to go over mashed potatoes.

Controlling Exposure to Diesel Emissions in Underground Mines was developed to assist the coal and metal/nonmetal underground mining industries in their efforts to reduce the exposure of workers to aerosols and gases from diesel-powered equipment. It includes information collected by researchers at the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health/Office of Mine Safety and Health Research (NIOSH/OMSHR).
Prior to the production of this text, the knowledge on this complex issue was fragmented. The goal of this volume is to make the information available in one easy-to-use reference.
The book includes comprehensive, mine-specific programs for use by mechanics, mine ventilation engineers, industrial hygienists, mine managers, union health and safety representatives, and personnel responsible for the acquisition of diesel vehicles, engines, exhaust aftertreatment systems, fuels, and lubricants.
The description of methods to reduce exposure to diesel aerosols includes curtailment of diesel particulate matter and gaseous emissions at their source, and controlling airborne pollutants with ventilation and personal protective equipment.
This information should also help researchers in industry, government, and academia to identify areas that need to be addressed in future research and development efforts.

Peace is Present in Unpredictable Places: Thailand's Songkran Celebrations
Posted by GlobaLinks Learning Abroad on May 6, 2013 · 1 Comment
By Shannon Garrity – Shannon is a GlobaLinks Learning Abroad Student from Bridgewater State University who is studying at James Cook University – Townsville, Australia.
No feeling can honestly compare to how free I felt on the streets of Bangkok with thousands of smiling people from all over the world laughing, dancing, and soaking each other. My friends and I just so happened to arrive in Thailand for our lecture recess on Songkran, their New Year – where they participate in the largest water fight in the world since it is the hottest month of the year. Thai locals pour flour all over internationals and everyone soaks each other with water guns and buckets. I was continually amazed at how peaceful the celebration was…
Though, it was only a few days later, after coming out of the absolutely stunning Koh Sok National Park that I heard there was a bombing in my home city of Boston. One can assume the fierce amount of panic I felt in that moment until I reached my family and friends who could have been in the city or attended the marathon I attend almost every year. Though blessed, all I know who were there are okay, my heart hurts terribly for all of those directly affected.
It was after this that I truly appreciated every moment of peace around me. I looked back at my experience at Songkran and smiled at the utter beauty in the ways the people treated each other. Since I'm studying to become a humanitarian worker and ironically taking anthropology of violence class in Australia in the hopes of becoming more aware of issues throughout the world…I did see some of the worst slums I'd ever seen on our travels from place to place, but I also met some of the friendliest people in the world whose dependence on material things like the majority of the first world simply was not present.
Not only that, the beauty in the land itself was one of a kind. So, whenever worries turned toward back home, not only was I surrounded by the incredible Thai people, I had so many back-packers in our group who were the first to comfort me…one of the absolute wonders of Thailand were the bonds of back-packers are unlike any other due to the being the number one destination in the world.
Thus, part of my studies is realizing the reality that violence exists and it can strike at any time. Yet, part of overcoming violence is recognizing the beauty of the different forms peace takes. So, though I was half a world away from my home that was in lockdown – what brought me peace? The kindness in the Thai people unlike any other, the placidity while sleeping in floating bungalows in a national park and the adventurous feeling riding an elephant in the jungle…it's in moments like that which I found peace within myself, it's in moments of bonding with other backpackers that I found peace in others, and it's reflecting upon the strength of my home city and the beauty of a foreign one celebrating the most magnificent holiday I've ever been apart of that I see peace in other cultures.
I am so incredibly grateful to have ventured to Thailand when I did, learning of another culture's whose ways were unlike anything I'd ever seen. Personally, professionally, and culturally I learned first hand that though violence will always be present, the power of peace can prevail in so many forms. Every culture has a unique sense of serenity and despite the chaos of being hosed down by water all day; I found my serenity in Thailand on its busiest streets and its craziest holiday…such an unpredictable, wonderful place to find it!

From its start in 1984, the Eugene Peace Choir has been actively and creatively using our gift of song in support of peace, environmental sustainability and social justice. We combine music, message and community to enhance our musical skills, enrich our lives and contribute to the common good. We strive to live our ideals through our traditions of openness, inter-group collaboration and singing on mission. As a non-sectarian all-comers choir, we are open to anyone who enjoys singing and wants to join.
We give our voice to benefits and fundraisers for various local groups and causes. This has included the Reality Kitchen, CALC and the Winnemem Wintu tribe's defense of Mt. Shasta watersheds. We also perform at non-violent demonstrations to support peace, environmental sustainability and social justice.
Eugene Peace Choir helps lead songs during the City's annual Martin Luther King, Jr. march and has performed during the noontime program. Other venues have included events at the Atrium, the Occupy Eugene camp, holiday singing at Sponsors Halfway House for Women and the Applegate Care Center and Holiday Market. Eugene Peace Choir joins annually with Portland Peace Choir and Rogue Valley Peace Choir to host a multi-choir concert in one of these communities that includes other choirs, such as Eugene's In Accord.
Our income comes mainly from membership dues, grants and donations. A choir garage sale in the spring is great fun. We are most grateful to our community - private donors, Oregon Country Fair, Helios Resource Network and Lane Arts Council - for their generous support. Scholarships and dues set on a sliding scale allow persons at every income level to participate fully in choir activities.
We are a self-governed choir. The responsibility for administration, fundraising and song selection is shared among all choir members. We incorporated as a 501(C)3 non-profit public charity in 2003. Our corporate structure is a Board of Directors consisting of all willing choir members and three elected officers. Decisions are made by the choir at regularly held business meetings where we ensure everyone is heard and arrive at solutions together. See our YouTube interview which Julia Linebarger-Taylor gave to UO student, Alex Katz, in 2014.

15 questions to ask when finding a daycare
When it comes to choosing a daycare, parents rank quality as one of their top concerns, according to a survey released by the National Association of Child Care Resource and Referral Agencies.
Of course, that finding should come as no surprise. Parents want to ensure that their children are in an environment that is safe and promotes their educational, social and physical development.
Yet determining the quality of a daycare facility requires a more comprehensive process than a 15- to 20-minute tour. When you're taking that important step in choosing a provider for your child, make sure you are armed with a list of questions that will give you some assurance about your decision.
Take a look at these top 15 questions you should ask when interviewing potential daycare providers.
- Are your caregivers trained in first aid/CPR?
- Do you conduct background checks on all your employees?
- What type of child development training do you require, if any?
- What is the student to teacher ratio?
- Is your facility licensed and/or accredited?
- How many children does your facility serve?
- What is the specific breakdown of age ranges?
- What is your educational philosophy?
- What is your discipline policy?
- What is a typical day like for the children?
- What is your sick child policy?
- What types of snacks and/or meals do you serve?
- What opportunities are available for indoor/outdoor play?
- What is your policy about administering medicine?
- What is your policy about potty-training?

When using CARP to support failover on multiple firewalls, the protocol itself can be insufficient. Consider the following configuration:
Traffic flows through the upper firewall, the lower firewall simply listens for CARP announcements on both interfaces, and seeing the CARP announcements from the uppper firewall, it stays silent. If the upper firewall fails, within seconds the lower one will notice the absence of adventisements, and take over the CARP'd ip addresses on both sides. Service continues as normal. But a problem arises if there is a network problem that affects only the master firewall. For example, consider a failure of the switch port on one side of the upper firewall:
If the network link state does not change, neither firewall has any idea of where the problem is. The lower firewall no longer hears CARP announcements on this side, so becomes master, taking over the shared address. Incoming packets are now routed in through the lower firewall. However, the upper firewall still still thinks it is master on both interfaces, as it is not recieving any announcements from the lower one. Outgoing traffic continues to be routed to the upper firewall, and is effectively blackholed.
In order to solve the problem of unsynchronised carp interfaces, we need to have some alternate test of connectivity, and some method of ensuring that the working system is master on all network segments. ifstated(8) can be used do to this.
The configuration in the sample ifstated.conf defines 4 main states; each firewall actually swiches between two of the states. During normal operation, the upper firewall is in the master state, with an advskew of 10, and the bottom firewall is in the backup state, with an advskew of 100.
When the bottom firewall detects that the link states of the carp(4) interfaces are no longer synchronised, it uses ping to see if it still has connectivity on both sides. If it does, then the failure must be in the upper firewall's connectivity. It changes to the promoted state, and changes the advskew on all it's carp interfaces to 0 in order to become master of all the carp interfaces.
The upper firewall has a similar state change: it conducts connectivity tests on a regular basis; if it detects a loss of connectivity, or a loss of carp(4) link state synchronisation, it moves to a demoted state, setting the advskew on all it's interfaces to 254. It continues to monitor connectivity, and returns to master if connectivity is restored.
NOTE: It is possible to operate such a failover pair without the master to demoted state transitions - in fact without runnig ifstated(8) on the upper firewall at all. But doing this is required for real redundancy: it ensures that correct failover will still take place if there is a problem with ifstated(8) on the lower firewall.
There are alternatives for both the connectivity test and forcing the failed system to relinquish the carp addresses on all interfaces, which may be less error prone in situations:
If pfsync(4) is being used to synchronise states between the two firewalls, a pfsync watchdog could watch for pfsync messages which indicate that traffic is passing through the other firewall correctly. If If it detects that t no more traffic is flowing end-to-end through the other system, it considers that system down, and ifstated can take action.
Taking over the carp addresses from the failed firewall by modifying the advskew has problems as well. Firstly, it assumes that there is no failure with the functioning of the carp protocol, either via a software failure, or filtering of some carp packets on the network. Secondly, if there is a second failure while a system is in the promoted, such as a failure in ifstated on that system, other systems will not be able to force it to give up the CARP'd addresses. Therefore, it would be desireable for us to have STONITH (Shoot The Other Node In The Head) capability as a sort of final solution to deadlocks. A number of different mechanisms have been proposed, including using WoL (Wake On Lan), or sending a BREAK to the serial console on the other box, dropping it to the debugger

Logan, WV —- Students hailing from Cambodia, South Africa, Korea, and Namibia who are a part of a group from Sandy Spring, Maryland doing service work in Logan County this week will sit in on social studies and history classes at Logan High School on Thursday, March 21st. As part of the cultural exchange, the international students will talk about their culture and government, answer questions from Logan students, and also learn about life and culture in Logan.
Hosted by the American Friends Service Committee and BAPS Youth Leadership, the visiting students from Sandy Spring Friends School in Maryland are here all week on their spring break, helping at the community garden in Shamrock, working at PRIDE Head Start in Dehue, and learning about the BAPS youth's efforts to end child poverty.
"It's cool to hang out with kids from other parts of the country and the world," BAPs member Storm Coleman says, "Doesn't take long to realize that we're not as different as you'd think."


text: Numerous studies have indicated that teachers have expectations regarding how well their students will perform in school. In some cases, these expectations are based on reliable criteria, such as past academic performance or classroom behavior (Dusek & Joseph, 1983, p. 341). However, in many other cases, the expectations are based simply on appearances. Specifically, race and socioeconomic class are often used as the criteria for forming teacher expectations. Many teachers expect white children from upper and middle class homes to do well in their academic studies. By contrast, it is assumed that African-American or Latino children from lower class homes will do poorly in their school work. Such expectations have a subtle effect on the teacher's behavior within the classroom. As a result of this behavior, the expectations of the teacher are communicated to the students. In most cases, the students react to this communication by performing in the manner that the teacher expects of them. This process is referred to as being a "self-fulfilling prophecy" in education (Chunn, 1988, p. 95). The expectations of the teacher are also fulfilled by the system of ability grouping and tracking which exists in most American schools. In this system, the students who are expected to perform poorly are placed in special learning groups. Unfortunately, this system does little to help the students overcome their educational disadvantages. In fact, it tends to reinforce those disadv

Governor Encourages People to Support the Salvation Army
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) – People will soon be hearing a familiar holiday sound…bells! The Salvation Army has kicked off its annual Red Kettle Campaign and Gov. Paul LePage is urging Maine residents to contribute. LePage said during the kick-off event Thursday at the State House that it's very important that Maine people put a few dollars in the red kettle or volunteer their time to ring the bell during the holiday season. The charitable organization expects to have more than 100 red kettles on street corners and shopping areas in Maine through Christmas Eve. The Salvation Army says its goal is to raise at least $800,000 this year to beat last year's collection of more than $700,000. The organization says last year's donations contributed to services and programs for more than 55,000 men, women and children statewide during the holidays and throughout the year.

Below is the poem entitled Lovers Lake which was written by poet
Keen. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Richard-Jamaal Keen
Sometimes when it comes to love its like being at the bottom of a lake
Find myself holding my breath even though the water is fake
The emotions are very real
The feelings are life saving, but they kill
In this water so long my skin is starting to peel
I'm tough like the navy, swimmer like a seal
But the abyss is too deep
Steady kicking my feet
My legs are growing weak
Swimming for what feels like an eternity but it was really a week
Putting in an effort to hold my head above water, I try my best
In Lovers Lake I feel like a monster of Loch Ness
Happy times like little kids
Dangerous times like giant squids
Seaweed from my toes to my eyelids
Pain is love
Love is pain
Floating in this lake removes the hate stain
Leave the mark of love upon my soul
A girl's lifeguard is my rightful role
This water is more sharp than a steel shard
Wrapping around my heart like a wire thats barbed
But blood refuses to leak, only H2O
No director of this movie, no HBO
Stranded alone in Lovers Lake, without a boat
Shall I continue to kick, or just float
If I find my way to shore
Effect of love is no more
Cleaning the lake is such a huge chore
When it rains it pours
Acid rain in my pores
Lovers' Lake water enters my heart's doors
Some people who swam in this lake have drown, body goes stale
Feel like a trout, in a lake full of whale
Deeper, deeper I get
I guess this is it
I drown
Compassion king...where is my crown
The fish around me frown
Because the sun's rays don't reach this far down
I refuse to panic
As I think of the Titanic
Rose and Jack
Their love for each other I lack
My life, my mind, my soul
I need them back
My thoughts are like potion
Like fluid from a lake with motion
Wait...this is Lovers Lake not the Atlantic Ocean
I wouldn't need to be saved
If I would've behaved
Fell in love to the point I'm in too deep
Busy thinking about her, I can't eat
She's a positive reason that I can't sleep
The promises I made to her, I will keep
My feelings are never fake
Drowning in Lovers Lake

Worcester, Mass. - Holy Cross and Bentley College skated to a 2-2 tie in the extra stanza, Friday night at the Hart Center in the Crusaders final Atlantic Hockey home-game of the regular season.
The Falcons jumped out to an early lead in the first when junior Josh Thompson scored from the edge of the left face off circle at 3:58 in the period.
Midway through the first, Holy Cross evened the score at one-all when sophomore James Sixsmith (Alexandria, Va.) slapped a shot from just inside the right face-off circle that ricocheted off the post to sophomore Jon Landry (Lexington, Mass.), who tucked it past Bentley netminder Simon St. Pierre at 9:54. Sophomore Sean Nappo (Northville, Mich.) also assisted on the play.
Holy Cross used a man-up advantage to take a 2-1 lead when sophomore Frank O'Grady (Kimberley, B.C) fired a shot from the top of the circles that was saved by St. Pierre and redirected to freshman Dale Reinhardt (Livingston, N.J.), who netted the rebounded shot at 13:58 in the first. Sixsmith was also credited with an assist.
Bentley's Seth Vinocur fired a shot from high in the slot and then tipped in the game-tying goal during a scramble in front of the net at 9:03 in the second.
Despite out shooting Bentley, 20-5 in the second period and 13-3 in the third, Holy Cross was unable to post another goal to win the game.
Junior netminder Tony Quesada (South Freeport, Maine) made 21 saves for Holy Cross, while St. Pierre halted 46 shots on goal. The Crusaders went 1-for-5 on the power play and killed off all four of Bentley's opportunities.
The Crusaders conclude regular-season action on Saturday, March 5, when they go up against Bentley in Watertown, Mass., at 7:30 p.m.

The state of American manhood is not good, by almost any measure, and it's worse than it was five years ago.
So we learn in the latest edition of monthly newsletter, Postsecondary Education Opportunity. The measures range from unemployment to incarceration to voter registration to living at home with parents. Here's what jumps out from the educational profile:
"For the first time in American history, young men today are less likely to be college-educated than their fathers." In 2008, 28.8 percent of men aged 25-34 held at least a bachelor's degree, compared to 34.5 percent of men in the 55-64 age bracket.
For females, the reverse was true — "our daughters are far better educated than their mothers," as Mortenson puts it. The 2008 share of 25-34-year-old women with a bachelor's or better was 35.9 percent, compared to 28.0 percent for 55-64-year-old women.
The share of U.S. males aged 25-29 with four years or more of college went from 6.9 percent to 27.6 percent in 1976, and has plateaued since, peaking at 27.9 percent in 2000.
The national trend of females forging ahead in higher education is reflected in statistics for Vermont's public institutions. Women outnumber men just about everywhere except Lyndon State. The biggest gender disparity of all is at Community College of Vermont. Here are the numbers for fall undergraduate enrollment in 2009 from the U..S. Department of Education's database:
UVM: 44 percent male, 56 percent female
Community College of Vermont: 31 percent M, 69 percent F
Castleton State College: 47 percent M, 53 percent F
Johnson State College: 39 percent M, 61 percent F
Lyndon State College: 54 percent M, 46 percent F

The Boy Scouts of America will vote on a resolution to partially rescind its ban on openly gay Scouts at a meeting in Texas on May 20. The wording of the proposed policy change is direct. It states that no youth may be denied membership in the Boy Scouts of America "on the basis of sexual orientation or preference alone."
A ban would continue on leadership roles for adults who are openly gay or lesbian.
Proponents of the policy change say the Scouts now have an opportunity to include a group of youngsters who have long been excluded from joining the organization. Critics, however, argue the current policy should remain unchanged.
Clif Morris, an executive of the West Tennessee Boy Scout Council, told the Associated Press last week that surveys show that around 90 percent of his local members either totally support or somewhat support the current position. His group is one of two Boy Scouts councils in Tennessee that have already said they will not support a proposal to change the group's long-standing exclusion of gays.
Officials with the Nashville-based Middle Tennessee Council of the Boy Scouts also pledge to support the current membership policy at the Boy Scouts of America's annual meeting next week. Hugh Travis, scout executive for the Middle Tennessee Council, said surveys show the council's parents and leaders believe the current membership policy is a "core value of the Scout Oath and Law."
The debate on the policy change vote is certain to be emotional and heated. Recently, Texas Gov. Rick Perry said allowing openly gay members to join would erode the foundation of the Boy Scouts.
"Scouting has for over a century now been the real bedrock of values and traditions and developer of men," he said. "Their values and principles have worked for a century now, and for pop culture to come in and try to tear that up because it just happens to be the flavor of the month, so to speak, and to tear apart one of the great organizations that has served millions of young men, helped them to become men and to become great fathers — that is just not appropriate."
Meanwhile, some supporters of the policy change believe Boy Scouts should go even farther. Dave McGrath, 48, and his son Joseph, 21, are cycling 1,800 miles from their home in Idaho to Irving, Texas, (the headquarters of the Boy Scouts) to protest against the continued ban of gay adult leaders in the organization.
Tell us what you think. Should the Boy Scouts revoke its ban on openly gay members?

After shots were reportedly fired at Rick Ross' Rolls Royce in the early hours of yesterday morning, the MMG capo and a female companion were said to have fled the vehicle unscathed after it crashed into a nearby building. With fans and foes having little confirmed information to go on, the rumor mill is now churning: Was Ross the victim of an attempted murder, or was this whole episode a publicity stunt?
It goes without saying that gun violence is no joking matter, nor are yesterday's reports regarding Rozay, or rap beefs in general. If you ask 50 Cent, however, he won't be reluctant to tell you that there's comedic value to be found here. After the shooting and car crash, 50 took to Twitter to voice his thoughts, asserting that the entire incident was "staged," and even went as far as to Instagram a photograph of the scene. "No hole's in da car," he wrote before firing off a second tweet, which was more machismo in nature than anything else, reiterating his familiarity with bullet-proof vehicles.
While 50 and Rick Ross may be long-time rivals, the Queens rapper's theory that the incident is staged is one that is getting a bit of traction online. Whether they are supporters of 50 or not, hundreds of tweets regarding the incident have been published since yesterday using the words "publicity stunt," "staged," and "hoax." Before any more details are revealed, do you guys have any hypotheses to add into the mix? Was this real, fake, or maybe just a warning? We'll be sure to keep you updated as the investigation continues.
So, anyone else think that the Rick Ross shooting was a publicity stunt, or am I effed up for that?
— Starr R.(@GangStarrGirl) January 28, 2013
Maybe the rick ross drive by incident wasn't staged. Maybe they were giving out warning shots.

Hello my darling! I'm so glad you could make it to our new country home. I know we said the one we bought in June was the last one, but sometimes a house just speaks to you, you know? Now enough chit chat: let me give you the grand tour!
I'm terrible at choosing just one decorating approach, so naturally we had to have two living rooms in two different styles. Plus my stuffed peacock doesn't get along with my zebra rug, making an arrangement like this an absolute necessity.
This room is really the huz's territory. He recently splurged on a forty foot yacht, and I thought 'What better way to celebrate than to have a yacht-themed room'? It's subtle, of course--the rope-framed mirror, the portrait of a sea captain--and if the huz has been really well behaved I let him put his feet up on the coffee table.
I've been lugging these tiny French pendant lamps around with me ever since I found them years ago at the Paris flea market, and I'm so happy finally to have a kitchen worth installing them! They provide just the right amount of light when I'm baking my award-winning chocolate cake or arranging my priceless collection of antique tableware.
And speaking of priceless, come to the second kitchen and let me show you the most recent cuttings from my heirloom flower garden! The specimens I grow are one-of-a-kind, direct descendants of cultivars from Marie Antoinette's garden. You don't have to look so awestruck. That's just how I roll!
You must be hungry. Let's have some lunch! I'll tailor the menu depending on which dining room we eat in. After all, we're not animals! Perhaps you'd like waffles with whipped cream and fresh strawberries in my gray room?
Maybe a selection of rare cheeses and salumi in the black room? I'll open up that $2000 bottle of wine I've been storing for just such an occasion, and I'll have some fresh macarons flown in from Laduree.
We could keep things low key and dine al fresco. The benefit of this space is you can just reach up to the trellis and pick a bunch of perfectly ripe, juicy grapes to complete your meal.
Sometime during the weekend I'll have to take leave of you and work on my book. It's a romance novel, and I can just tell it's going to be a bestseller. As an author I'm so sensitive to my surroundings, so when I'm writing in the hero's point of view I sit at this desk...
...and when I'm writing in the heroine's point of view I move into this room. It helps me tap into the personality of each character. Also, I needed a place to display my solid gold desk.
Frankly you're looking quite haggard after your ten hour flight. Let me show you to your room so you can freshen up. This lovely space is calming and serene...
...and it offers an en suite reading room so you can catch up on all the classics. Please do be careful when you turn the pages of my first edition copy of Oliver Twist.
If you choose the pink room, I guarantee a sound night's sleep. I had this color custom blended to induce brain waves of the ideal frequency for sweet dreams.
On the off chance that you do wake up during the night, you might hear me swimming laps in the pool. I'm preparing for an Ironman triathlon and with my busy schedule I have to fit my training in sometime! After all, personal growth is a 24/7 job.
P.S. Awesome giveaways to brighten your Monday: a glam light fixture at Harmony and Home, and a fab silk jumpsuit at This is Glamorous!

AT&T case could bring end to class-action suits for many consumers
A case involving AT&T that goes before the U.S. Supreme Court this week has sweeping ramifications for potentially millions of consumers.
If the court rules for the telecom, any business that issues a contract to customers, such as for credit cards, cell phones or cable TV, could prevent them from joining class-action lawsuits.
This would take away one of the most powerful legal tools available to consumers in such cases, particularly those involving relatively small amounts of money. Class-action suits allow plaintiffs to band together in seeking compensation or redress, giving more heft to their claims.
William B. Gould IV, a professor emeritus at Stanford Law School and former chairman of the National Labor Relations Board under President Bill Clinton, said the high court was clearly interested in extending the reach of the Federal Arbitration Act.
"This is a very important issue," he said. "And this Supreme Court has indicated a measure of hostility toward class actions."

If you weren't a Pitbull fan before, then we promise you will be now. In the second best Kanye West related thing to happen today (hot on the heels of his much talked about Twitter rant), Pitbull (featuring Sensato) has released a remix of Ye and Jay-Z's Watch The Throne hit, "Ni**as in Paris," entitled "Latinos In Paris." Not only is it a great concept — riffing on one of 2011 biggest hits with tongue firmly in cheek — Pitbull has even released a video for his remix, putting him one step ahead of the still video-less Throne duo. The video, the first Pitbull has directed, is pretty funny too, featuring Pitbull and Sensato rapping in front of an illuminated Eiffel Tower and cutting to images of tacky tourist souvenir mini-tours. We're now waiting for this "Different Races In Paris" meme to kick off; what will be next? Should we start penning our own version, "VH1 Staffers In Paris?"
