CHARLOTTE, N.C. — How long can the four drivers at Stewart-Haas Racing get along before it all blows up?
It was the first question asked in a press conference at the 32nd annual NASCAR Sprint Cup Media Tour.
With Tony Stewart, Danica Patrick, Kevin Harvick and Kurt Busch, there are four drivers used to being the center of attention. Add in their history of showing volatile personalities and many have hedged their bets on not a matter of if, but when a situation erupts like a volcano.
Stewart, a driver as well known for his fiery temper as much as his three NASCAR championships, said their common personalities will actually help the group overcome any major problems.
"I think we all have the advantage of understanding each other, having similar personalities," Stewart said. "Everybody, their first thought, is the opposite of the reality of what it is. We're actually a great support system for each other.
"Every one of us have had our battles with each other, the media or whatever group it has been with. But, we can all understand and relate to what the others are going through."
It's no secret Stewart and Harvick have clashed with Busch through the years, including a physical confrontation between Stewart and Busch five years ago at Daytona. It caught most insiders off guard, Stewart included, when team co-owner Gene Haas signed Busch to drive for the team last August, only one month after Stewart said the organization wouldn't expand to a fourth team.
Since then, Busch has visited Stewart and the two insist they have moved on. Stewart described the four of them as alpha drivers, which has led many to speculate it's only a matter of time before a conflict arises either on or off the track.
"When a majority of the media are leaning on it's a great opportunity to be a disaster, we thinking about it about being a great match for four great drivers and personalities," Stewart said. "It's an opportunity for four great drivers to work together because they understand each other."
Harvick was known for occasionally taking verbal jabs at teammates while at Richard Childress Racing. He famously feuded with Robby Gordon and last season called Austin and Ty Dillon "rich kids who were given everything they've gotten."
He was in a light-hearted mode on Monday, joking to Stewart, who missed the last 14 races last season with a broken leg, "If we're fighting, then I'm kicking you in the leg."
He talked about being obsessed with a Sprint Cup championship which has eluded him over his 14-year career in the top series. Despite finishing third in points each of the last three seasons, Harvick sees Stewart-Haas giving him a better chance than RCR of winning a first title.
"It's all about winning races and winning a championship at this point," he said. "It's the one trophy in racing which has eluded my trophy case. That motivates me."
As for Busch being hired as a teammate, Harvick said they let bygones be bygones. He added they worked well together last season when Busch was driving for Furniture Row Racing and was an unofficial teammate to Harvick.
"I've seen what Kurt brings from a racing standpoint," Harvick said. "I see the passion he has for this. It's expected you'll get along as professionals. We can benefit each other and we all want to win. I feel we can benefit from pushing each other."
Busch, 2004 NASCAR champion, is the one who probably has the most experience in this type of situation. While he's been the lead driver at Penske Racing, he's also been the new kid on the block at Roush Racing. On a team of established drivers, he said they have to build trust.
"The information you have to give has to be credible and valid," Busch said. "You have to check your ego, and double-check when there is seniority above you. Tony is our lead driver, and he's also the co-owner. It's great to have an owner's opinion when it comes to writing checks, having someone who has been in the driver's seat. I'm looking forward to seeing how we can use Tony in that owner-driver role."
Patrick also wants to use the all-star lineup to her advantage.
In her second full season on the Sprint Cup circuit and her third season overall, Patrick is under pressure to pick up the pace. She sees bringing Harvick and Busch on board as simply more resources to draw from in helping her achieve that goal.
"It's a great opportunity for me," Patrick said. "So much has changed (with the team) so it feels so new. It's my job to use all those resources to get better faster."

Rutina Wesley Says "Sookie Stackhouse" With Fangs On! (VIDEO)
Rutina Wesley couldn't be more different than her True Blood character, Tara Thornton.
Rutina stopped by CBS's The Talk on Thursday, Aug. 9, chatting about her family's reaction to her "racy" sex scenes and teaching the hosts how to successfully say "Sookie Stackhouse" while wearing a pair of plastic fangs. (And it's very different than Beel's annunciation — that's for sure!)

Students Take Up Global Challenge
Story supplied by LU Press Office
Blackpool Students have been learning how to 'Cool It' this week at Lancaster Environment Centre as part of a climate challenge project.
20 students from Blackpool Sixth Form College visited Lancaster University research scientists as part of the 'Let's Cool It' project - part of an EU / British Council funded project on Climate Change which links students at The Blackpool Sixth Form College with counterparts in a school in Izmir, Turkey.
The project focuses on building international links between young people who can work together to help understand Climate Change and take positive action to improve the environment.
On Wednesday, February 25, the students got hands on at the University's Lancaster Environment Centre working alongside research scientists who are tackling some of the toughest problems facing the planet - from climate monitoring to understanding how to deal with the impacts of climate change whether it be drought or flood.
As part of the scheme, the Sixth Form College ran a competition asking Lancashire schoolchildren to create posters and poems describing something that they find precious about the planet in order to bring the climate change message home. Hundreds of entries were submitted from pupils from 16 different schools across Blackpool, Fylde and Wyre.
Prizes were awarded to the winners at a special ceremony at the Lancaster Environment Centre by Lancaster University Dean of Science and Technology Professor Mary Smyth and Co-Director of LEC Professor Graham Harris.
Lancaster University Science Partnerships Officer Dr Alan Darragh said: "I am delighted the University has been able to assist with this project though our Science and Technology Schools Partnership programme - giving students a chance to sample real climate science at work. The fact the project has involved primary, secondary and sixth form students shows a tremendous commitment in trying to communicate the issues of climate change to all ages."
Eco Council Co-ordinator for The Blackpool Sixth Form College Jon McLeod said: "We had a tremendous response to our competition on the theme of Climate Change. It just goes to show how strongly young people care about keeping their planet safe for the future.
"Our sixth formers from the College have also benefited enormously from working with staff from the Lancaster Environment Centre as part of their project.
"It's great to see them learning from leading research scientists and I am sure this will inspire many of them to go on to study and work in environment-related areas. They will be helping to tackle many of the problems they have been looking at today."

Great shirts
We bought 3 different styles of these traveler, tailored fit shirts for our son for Christmas. He loves them because of the way they look and fit, we love them because when they come out of the dryer there are few if any wrinkles. They are very nice and good looking shirts.
Not same fit as dress shirts
By KAH8
from Atlanta, GA
I love the tailored fit traveler dress shirts, the "tailored fit" sportshirts are a much fuller cut however. They're quite comfortable and the color is nice, but the fabric doesn't come out quite as wrinkle free as the dress traveler and the cut is quite full.
Best shirt ever.

from Oakland
Every time I wear this shirt I get compliments, often from strangers.

She's Chatting Online With Her Ex
get to the bottom of thingsBut before we get to outlining a strategy to deal with your problem, I want you to understand something very important that you're just not getting. Something's rotten in Denmark. Or as my Uncle Jethro Love would say, "There's a dead cat in the closet, and all the air freshener in the world ain't gonna make it go away."
What am I referring to? Take an objective look, Stan. Your girlfriend is giving considerable time and attention to a guy that she rejected. Why would she do that? The answer is that she's addicted to getting all the male attention she can. She doesn't care that she's stringing along this guy that she once dumped. She doesn't care that her continual e-mailing this guy bothers you . She doesn't care about anyone else's feelings.
she's selfish stanShe wants what she wants, and forget about everyone else. She's a woman who just can't tolerate the idea of possibly having to emotionally go it alone, so she keeps potential "back-ups" in her orbit, feeding them just enough to stay hooked. Talk about a lack of integrity!
Stan, what would happen if you tied the knot with this gal and then later wanted to go bear hunting in the backwoods of Montana for fourteen days with your buddies? How comfortable would you be leaving her alone? What would a woman like this be doing during that time while she was left unsupervised? Sitting at home alone reading Nancy Drew books? Visiting girlfriends to exchange recipes? Or... going out to nightclubs, just to dance of course. Get my drift?
No more Mr. Nice Guy...

Reviews Palace of Fine Arts
Palace of Fine Arts
The Palace of Fine Arts is located on Lyon Street in San Francisco.
The design of the building is the brainchild of Bernard Maybeck. Visitors can see a fine blend of Greek and Roman architecture in this edifice.
It was built in 1915 for the Panama-Pacific Exposition. The building consists of symbolic figures and sculptured frieze, which were designed by a German - American sculptor named Ulric Ellerhusen.
Visitors can see the huge exhibition hall inside the Palace of Fine Arts. The hall has now been converted into an Exploratorium.
The Exploratorium hosts a number of interactive science exhibits. The building originally had eight domes. However, now visitors can see only one of them that has been carefully restored. A man made lagoon is located in front of the building which reflects the beauty of this astonishing building.
Similar sorts of lagoon can be found in various European buildings, which were constructed for the same purpose.

Excellent piece from the Guardian about how heterodox approaches to economics were locked out in the UK (the same was true here in the United States, of course). This is a rejoinder to Elizabeth Windsor's question: "Why did no one see it coming?" I wonder what Her Majesty will think of Ann Pettifor's answer. Hat-tip to Lynn F. for putting me onto the UK side of this issue.
I blame the Queen for this crisis
The man hired to lead the Royal Economic Society rejected any challenge to a blind orthodoxy that helped to cause catastrophe
This week I was asked by the Guardian to address the Queen's question: "Why did no one see it coming?" I tried to answer the question by sharing some of the seriously flawed analysis and advice provided by orthodox economists—those that dominate both the economics profession and the economics commentariat.
I found these economists guilty of providing not only the Queen, prime ministers and chancellors, but also the citizenry—including millions of investors—with dangerously misleading guidance.
The accused include advisers to the Club of Rich Countries—the OECD—professors at prestigious business schools and writers for the Economist. The ones I cited offered very little forewarning of the catastrophe that has befallen the highly synchronised global economy—and millions of ordinary people.
A key exhibit in my case against the economics profession is a letter written by professors Richard Portes and Fridrik Már Baldursson to the Financial Times as recently as 4 July 2008. They were responding to an earlier article by another professor, Robert Wade, headed "Iceland pays the price for financial excess" (2 July 2008).
This letter is of some significance because, as Guardian readers will know, Iceland experienced the deepest and most rapid financial crisis recorded in peacetime when its three major banks all collapsed in the same week in October 2008.
Since then the Queen's ministers have combined with ministers of the Dutch government to demand massive compensation—equalling 100% of Iceland's GDP—from the largely innocent taxpayers of Iceland.
The victims of Iceland's catastrophic economic failure include thousands of the Queen's citizen investors and many of her own civil servants—including the audit commission, 100 local governments, police forces, charities and the universities of Oxford, Cambridge, and Manchester.
In their letter of 4 July 2008, Portes and Baldursson cite a great deal of evidence to contradict Wade's claim that Icelanders had borrowed as if there were no tomorrow, and that "Iceland's external liabilities swamp the central bank's ability to act as lender of last resort".
The letter from Baldurrson and Portes claims that while "gross debt of Icelandic households … was high … their assets … were over 750% cent of disposable income". These assets were, as we have since discovered, as solid as bubbles and burst dramatically in the week of 7 October 2008.
The letter asserts that the Icelandic "Financial Services Authority is highly professional … with higher capital ratios than their Nordic peers". Furthermore, they had "virtually no exposure to the toxic securities that almost all other banks did buy".
Because the Financial Times is trusted by thousands of investors, I have no doubt that this letter comforted and reassured civil servants in the various organisations that had invested in Iceland's banks, as well as thousands of the FT's readers.
Today these investors are obliged to rely on the British government's use of part two, article four of the Anti-terrorism, Crime and Security Act to obtain redress from Iceland's government—if not from the FT and Baldurrson and Portes.
Now, any reasonable person might argue, these professors were just two of many that shared a blind commitment to economic and financial orthodoxy. It is unfair, some might say malicious of me to single them out.
But my point is this: Portes was, until recently, the Queen's economist.
As well as being a professor of economics at the London Business School, and holding many other important governmental advisory positions, he has for 16 years acted as secretary general of the Royal Economic Society.
The Royal Economic Society grants its imprimatur to economists, and is therefore a powerful driving force in the field of academic economics.
Under the leadership of Portes, the Royal Economic Society was disdainful, even contemptuous of economists that challenged the orthodoxy he championed. This was most clearly expressed in his valedictory report to the society in April 2008 where he dismissed heterodox economists for their "mediocrity".
I have no doubt that the Queen is consulted about the appointment of the secretary general of the Royal Economic Society. Which is why I blame the Queen for the catastrophe that orthodox economists have helped to inflict on her citizens.
Ann Pettifor was speaking at the first in a series of debates hosted by the Guardian on Capitalism in crisis. Part 2: The global economy: Can we fix it? is on Monday 2 March. For more information and to buy tickets to the debate click here

ALBANY -- The results are in and thanks to Albany State University football fans, Rams quarterback Stanley Jennings was named The Heritage Sports Radio Network's (HSRN) National Player of the Week on Tuesday night.
One of four nominees for the national football fan poll award, Jennings won by a landslide, receiving 1,210 total votes, 994 more votes than runner-up Octavious Hawkins, the quarterback at Winston-Salem State University.
Malcolm Jenkins, a defensive lineman at Elizabeth City State University, received 41 votes, while David Carter, a running back at Morehouse College, received 35 votes.
In the Albany State-Kentucky State University game last Saturday, Jennings passed for 267 yards, completing 13 of 19 passes, for three touchdowns to lead the Rams to a 42-12 season opening victory over the Thorobreds. The junior from Marietta led the "Gold Rush" offense to 418 yards of total offense on the day.
Jennings and the Rams will make their home debut on Sept. 11 against the Clark Atlanta University Panthers. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. at the Albany State University Coliseum.
HSRN honors the top-performances on the gridiron for Division I FCS and Div. II each week. Fans across the country get to cast votes for the player they think had the top performance in HBCU football. Check out the HSRN by visiting www.HSRN.com.

Enzo Ferrari did not set out to create cars; he actually began his a career in Italian racing, and in 1928 formed an amateur team that utilized Alfa Romeo cars until 1938. In 1941 Alfa Romeo was seized by the government and the first Ferrari cars were produced.
Ferrari models are built with speed and performance thanks to the company's racing background. Today's Ferrari cars are lauded as "supercars" and use the famous prancing horse symbol and signature "race red" color. Ferrari car prices are notoriously expensive as Ferrari caters to the upper echelon of consumers.

Teapot - Westgarth Silver Tea & Coffee Service, 1847 Reg. No: SH 980506
- Summary:
- Teapot presented as part of a silver tea and coffee service in 1847 to William Westgarth, a Scottish merchant and financier who was returning to Britain after having played a prominent part in the civic life and affairs of the Port Phillip area from 1840-1847.
The kettle is inscribed 'Presented to William Westgarth Esquire by one hundred and twenty of his fellow colonists in testimony of their high esteem for his character and appreciation of the benefits conferred on the Province of Port Phillip by his statistical writings and other public services, 1847'.
William Westgarth had become a leading merchant and businessman in his seven years in the colony, active in the Benevolent Society and Mechanic's Institute, and written a book publicizing the colony's potential.
Westgarth returned in 1849, helped found the Melbourne Chamber of Commerce in 1851 and was a member of the first Victorian Parliament.
The silver service was made in Edinburgh by J. Mckay, circa 1846, and had probably been imported to Melbourne as a presentation piece.
- Description:
- Ornate silver teapot, large, with impressed decoration and engraved inscription. The teapot was produced as a presentation piece, as there is space on both sides for an engraved insciption to be added within the decoration. A large handle has two small rings of bone to act as insulation and to prevent the handle becoming too hot. The decoration includes flowers, leaves, baskets of fruit, ribbons and scrolls. The lid, which is attached to the body of the tea pot by a hinge, has a 'knob' in an amorphous shape. The teapot is deep, on a silver base; holes are beaten into the silver on the inside to drain the tea through the spout. A detailed inscription is at the front of the pot.

If I could go back an get just one, it would probably be he Pork Pie Patina 7x13... first. That drum has a unique character and tone. I am already thinking of adding that one back.
I also miss the 7x13 Gretsch Catalina Club. It isn't a "high end" drum by any means, but it always had a great sound and was very versatile. People always thought it was a much higher end drum than it was. I have a 7x13 Gretsch Retro Mahogany (basically the same thing) on layaway for a good price to get it back in the lineup.
I also loved that Ludwig Epic Birch "Brick" and I'm gonna add that one back as well. i loved the pop and projection that one had for a wood snare, while keeping a nice woody tone. I used to crank the bottom and go mid-range on the top. It sounded so meaty and strong like that. I let it go in a trade. All 3 of those can be added back at pretty good prices so they eventually will come back into the fold.
A lot of the higher end ones don't linger on my mind too much. My only 2 wood snares in my lineup now are a 7x13 Ddrum Ash and a 6.5x14 Gretsch Retro Mahogany and I like them both better than any of the wooden snares I used to have, except the Epic Birch and the 7x13 Gretsch. The maple snares I used to have, just didn't really do it for me.

Pure education knows no boundaries. Class lectures, books and theories provoke thoughts and power the imagination... essential learning tools. But, they are only part of the educational equation. Experiential learning, practical life encounters, is needed to round out and complete the equation. Imagine not having to imagine! Actually tasting the tartness of wild blueberries; seeing the wind swirling around snowcapped peaks that books can only describe; being moved to tears by the lyrical expressiveness of a howling pack of wolves; having one's boots suctioned to thick taiga sludge - a 4-D experience employs all of one's senses and brings book knowledge and theory to life.
Aquinas College offers both its traditional age and adult students opportunities for experiential learning with study abroad programs, service learning programs and field courses like "Resource Management in the National Parks." As members of last July's field course, an eclectic group of professors and students meandered 1,600 miles in a 15-passenger van. Destination: south central Alaska. This was not a typical group of undergraduate students in their late teens to early 20s. The students varied in age from 21 to 50+ years, demonstrating that adventure in education is not necessarily for the young but for the young at heart. A few were full-time undergrads. Some were fulltime graduate students. A number were employed full-time: One, a middle school teacher; another, a state park assistant superintendent; and there was even a new product development engineer. Three were Aquinas College Continuing Education (CE) students.
Over a period of two weeks, students combined theory and practical experience to study and evaluate the contemporary resource management issues faced by the National Park Service. Reading Michael Frome's book, Regreening the National Parks, was a course requirement. Daily lectures (rain or shine) by Dr. Matt Tueth, AQ professor and former state park superintendent, and Dr. Wikle, a geographer, highlighted numerous topics such as national park history, public use versus preservation and park planning. Occasional hikes on glacial ice, nervous bushwhacking treks through thick alpine tundra and backcountry overnights with indescribable views taught lessons in utter awe, public safety and visitor impacts. The lesson in how to avoid bear encounters proved most vital.

NPR's Diane Rehm Visits Aquinas
By Laura Bennett-Kimble '95, Contributing Writer
She visited, she enchanted, she conquered. Diane Rehm, beloved by many a National Public Radio listener, was in Grand Rapids in October for three Aquinas events. Some 900 people saw the personable radio host over two days, and she was so popular that about 60 people were turned away from her packed afternoon talk in the Performing Arts Center on Oct. 24, 2006.
At that event, Rehm focused on her background and how she got into radio. Her next presentation held that evening at the Cascade Hills Country Club, was primarily a question-and-answer session moderated by the ebullient Grand Rapids 63rd District Court Judge Sara Smolenski. The third appearance, an informal talk at the Donnelly Center on Oct. 25, was scheduled to accommodate people who weren't able to see her the day before.
In her opening at the evening event, she stated, "Here is my definition of a liberal: Someone whose mind, eyes, and ears are open to all possibilities and to all ideas. In that sense, I proudly declare myself a liberal."
She said her NPR program, The Diane Rehm Show, is heard by 1.7 million listeners in the United States, not including the reach of satellite radio. "It is a way of establishing a national town forum," she noted, because listeners are so inclined to contact the program with their two cents' worth. "I get it from all sides and I love it."
Rehm's visit, part of the "Women Make a Difference" lecture series, kicked off the 20th anniversary year for the Jane Hibbard Idema Women's Studies Center. Funds raised at the evening dinner event will go toward a scholarship being developed by the Center.
"I was absolutely delighted to have her here," said Susan Haworth-Hoeppner, director of the Center. "She is truly a model for women, particularly young women. [Her visit] was wildly successful. I think we reached more people than we ever have before."
By Laura Bennett-Kimble
How students end up at Aquinas College varies from person to person. For some, it's the first and most logical choice in a family with an Aquinas tradition. For others, it's the ideal place to finish or begin a Continuing Education program. And for a few like 18-year-old freshman Yvette Nkunde-Bose, it's a world apart from the devastation left behind.
"I cannot tell you how much I love this school," Yvette said. "The people are so nice. You can get help when you need it. I like the small classes. I think I belong to this school."
Yvette, who was born in Rwanda, has only been in the United States two years. Her route here was circuitous and painful. The civil war in Rwanda that left one million people dead began in 1994, when Yvette was just five years old. She ultimately lost her father, mother, a sister and two brothers, and has lost track of her only known living relative, a sister. Summarizing her experiences, she said, "I have a lot of personal issues from my past. I saw the guns and killing and rape."
Half Tutsi and half Hutu, Yvette found herself in danger wherever she went, and endured both physical and mental harm. She traveled from Rwanda to Zaire and finally Zambia, where a priest helped the then-sixteen-year-old find transportation to America. Before being placed with foster parents in Rockford, Yvette spent several months in children's homes in North Carolina and Georgia.
Because of the war, Yvette had no formal education prior to coming to the U.S. She carried 16 credits her first semester, including biology, English and math. Yvette knows 11 languages and has chosen pre-med as her major. "I grew up seeing people suffer," she said, "I grew up having a wish to be able to help people. African people don't have money to buy medicine. I want to go back so I can help them."
Dr. Lisa Anne Morgan will teach English in Belarus
An Aquinas College faculty member, Lisa Morgan, Ph.D., who directs the English as a Second Language Program at the School, has been selected for a prestigious Fulbright Scholar Grant. The grant will allow Morgan, who is also an assistant professor of education at Aquinas, to teach English to future English teachers as well as translators attending the Minsk State Linguistics University in Belarus. Morgan will teach from February to July 2007. Dr. Morgan characterized the award as a "wonderful opportunity" to work with colleagues in Belarus.
Morgan is one of approximately 800 U.S. faculty and professionals who will travel abroad through the Fulbright Scholar Program. Established in 1946 under legislation introduced by the late Senator J. William Fulbright of Arkansas, the program's purpose is to build mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the rest of the world.
Terry Bocian, Athletic Director at Aquinas College, Named Region VIII Athletic Director of the Year
Terry Bocian, Athletic Director at Aquinas College since 1978, has been named NAIA Region VIII Athletic Director of the Year for 2005-06. This is the third time that Bocian has earned the honor since the inception of the award 14 years ago.
He is in his second three year term as a member of the CAA (Council of Athletic Administrators/NAIA) and as region chairperson. Bocian, inducted in the NAIA Hall of Fame in 2000, coached the Saints baseball teams for 30 years during which his teams went 1079-450-13 for a winning percentage of 71%.
Bocian is only the 24th collegiate coach to amass 1,000 victories.
Under the direction of Bocian, Aquinas College has won the WHAC All Sports championship eight times in the past nine years under his leadership. He now is one of 14 athletic directors nationwide to be considered for NAIA and NACDA national honors.
Aquinas College Students Develop Prototype of Unique Emergency Evacuation System
The NaviLife system uses a string of light-emitting diode (LED) lights affixed in the flexible baseboards of building hallways that guide occupants to the safest, not necessarily the nearest, exit. The system's developers believe that the system will provide an additional safety net for those who must be evacuated from large buildings as well as firefighters who are entering smoke-filled buildings.
The NaviLife system is also being positioned to reduce liability for building owners, reducing insurance rates and may be included as part of LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Certification. Further, the newly revised Universal Fire Code (2003) strongly recommends devices, such as the NaviLife System, which, in the future, may be mandated as part of the fire code for large buildings.
The Lady Saints kicked off play on December 17 as they took on St. Xavier (Ill.) followed by a December 18 contest with Freed-Hardeman (Tenn.) and a final contest with Ottawa (Kas.) on December 19. All of the schools Aquinas competed against are NAIA members.
With the fall season wrapped up and the winter season already in full swing here is a look at how the Saints faired on the athletic fields this fall. Heading into the winter season, Aquinas is holding steady in third place in the WHAC All-Sports Trophy standings. As reigning champions, the Saints will look to move ahead with strong performances from both men's and women's basketball. Look for a review in early spring.
The Saints finished with an 11-6-2 (6-4-2 WHAC) record in head coach Joe Veal's first season at the helm of the Saints. Veal returned to the Saints program this year after last appearing on the sidelines at Aquinas in 1996 with former Saints Coach Pat Hoatlin. Seniors Chris Graham and David Juzwiak were named WHAC All-Conference performers, with Graham scoring seven goals and adding five assists to score 19 points for the Saints. Juzwiak led a stout Saints backline that allowed only 1.2 goals per game. Sophomore Erich Jackson was named to the WHAC 2nd Team. Senior Chris Roof and junior Goran Guzina were named to the WHAC Academic All-Conference team.
Head Coach Mark Fales led his squad to a 9-9-1 overall (5-7-1 WHAC) record this season. The Saints were paced by senior forward Katie Schmuck, who tallied 14 goals to score 28 points on the season. Schmuck was named WHAC All-Conference for her play. Sophomore Jessica Greaney was named to the WHAC 2nd Team and senior Audrey Vanderkamp and freshman Rebecca Underwood were named Honorable Mention All-WHAC. Vanderkamp and junior Connie Rogers were named NAIA Academic All-Americans for their work in the classroom.
Adding to the list of accomplishments year after year has become the favorite pastime of the harriers. The Saints finished in 5th place at the NAIA National Championships this fall. Leading the pack for Aquinas was senior All-American Scott Assenmacher, who placed 24th overall at the National Championships. Assenmacher was joined on the Academic All-American team by seniors Pat Earl and Brian Keilan. At the WHAC Conference meet, Aquinas placed four of the top seven finishers to take home the conference championship. Assenmacher was joined by senior James Jones, junior Zach Blough-Orr and sophomore Chris Leikert on the All-Conference team.
The Saints headed back to the NAIA National Championship with a second place finish in the WHAC and a 3rd place finish in the Regional. The Saints finished in 19th place at the National Championships. Paving the way for Aquinas were senior Lisa Wojciakowski and junior Jesse Lord-Wilder, who were both named All-Conference for their efforts at the WHAC Championships. Senior Stacey Hoffman and juniors Amanda Strouse and Lianne Griffiths were named NAIA Academic All-Americans.
The Saints finished the year with a 9-25 overall (4-10 WHAC, sixth place) record this year. Guided by head coach Jan Nevelle, the Saints highlight came in a thrilling five-game victory (30-26, 31-29, 26-30, 10-30, 15-10) over Trinity Christian at the Taylor University Tournament. The Saints were led by sophomore Andye Razmus' 366 kills and junior Michelle Maleski's 641 assists. Junior Alene Seiler was named Academic All-American.
Following two straight WHAC Championship season, head coach Tom Gunn led the Saints to a third-place finish in the highly competitive conference. Junior Brian Hayward took home honors as the WHAC individual champion with a scoring average of 72.3.
In four events this fall, head coach Dan Pupel's squad enjoyed their finest finish at their own Aquinas Invitational at Scott Lake Country Club. Led by senior Nikki Benoit's 88, the Saints finished 2nd behind Davenport. Aquinas also beat local rival Calvin College at Thornapple Point with sophomore Liz Clement carding an 83 and freshman Kylie Damore scoring an 87 to pace the Saints.

There's a new tenant at Armadillo Acres-and she's wreaking havoc all over Florida's most exclusive trailer park. When Pippi, the stripper on the run, comes between the Dr. Phil-loving, agoraphobic Jeannie and her tollbooth collector husband-the storms begin to brew. This new musical was first produced as a part of the New York Musical Theatre Festival where it quickly became a hit. It was restaged for an off-Broadway run at Dodger Stages, opening September 15, 2005. This intimate musical is quickly becoming a must produce for regional theatres around the country. The West Michigan premiere was recently held at Mason Street Theatre where the show quickly sold-out all performances.

Almost, Maine
A romantic comedy by John Cariani
June 7-23, 2007
On a Friday night in the middle of winter, residents of a small, mythical town in far northern Maine are falling in and out of love at an alarming rate. Knees are getting bruised; hearts are getting broken... but the bruises heal and hearts mend - almost - in what has been described as a "charming midwinter night's dream." The acclaimed romantic comedy began performances in New York in December 2005 at the Daryl Roth Theatre. The show received a wide variety of rave notices for its funny, touching look at life in the small, far northern town of Almost, Maine. The show debuted at the Portland Stage Company in October and November of 2004, and was the most successful show in the history of Maine's largest professional theatre company. Audiences flocked to see this show, with its hilarious and heartbreaking stories of love in the time of frostbite. The Wall Street Journal selected the Portland production of "Almost, Maine" as one of the best regional theatre productions in America. The new American National Theatre honored "Almost, Maine" as one of the outstanding regional theatre productions of 2004.

Sunday In The Park with George
Musical by Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine
July 12-28, 2007
One of the most acclaimed musicals of our time, this moving study of the enigmatic painter Georges Seurat won a Pulitzer Prize and was nominated for 10 Tony Awards for its deeply insightful and highly personal examination of life through art and the artist. Act One follows the inarticulate Seurat as he fights a losing battle to maintain a relationship with his mistress Dot as he creates his painting "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" amid the scorn of the artistic community. The second act takes place 100 years later, introducing us to his American descendant, also an artist, burned out and uncertain of the path he must take. The groundbreaking book and score by Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine, the authors of "Into The Woods" and "Passion," contain some of their most beautiful and stirring work. 10 Tony Nominations (two wins), 12 Drama Desk Award Nominations, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Best New American Drama, winner of 1984 Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Musical, the 1984 Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Broadway Musical and the 1984 NY Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Musical. "Sunday In The Park With George" is one of the greatest Broadway musicals ever written. Circle first produced this musical in 1988, with Rodney Vaccaro at the helm. NOTE: We plan to have Grand Award-winning director Rodney Vaccaro return to direct this production. His production of "Nine" in 2005 resulted in multiple Grand Award wins.

Daddy's Dyin' Who's Got The Will?
Comedy by Del Shores
August 9-25, 2007
Set in a small Texas town in anytime, U.S.A., "Dyin'" concerns the reunion of a family gathered to await the imminent death of their patriarch, who has recently suffered a physically as well as mentally disabling stroke. In essence, however, it is not the story of the impending demise of the father or of the drafting of his will, but of a rebirth of the spirit of the family unit. Without becoming ponderous, losing a sense of humor or pandering to timeworn clichés about Texans or Texas drawls, the story... shares many elements of a good summer novel: it's a fast, delicious, easy read with funny moments, tense moments, touching moments, and characters you care about.
Presented by Community Circle Theatre
A musical by Stephen Schwartz and Roger O. Hirson
September 6-22, 2007
This hip, tongue-in-cheek, anachronistic fairy tale about Pippin, the young prince who longed to discover the secret of true happiness and fulfillment, captivated Broadway audiences and continues to appeal to the young at heart everywhere. The energetic pop-influenced score by three-time Oscar-winning composer/lyricist Stephen Schwartz ("Godspell," " Wicked" and the animated films "Pocahontas," "The Hunchback Of Notre Dame" and "The Prince Of Egypt") bursts with one show stopping number after another, from soaring ballads to infectious dance numbers. Nominated for 11 Tony Awards (winner of five), "Pippin" is equally effective as an intimate, black-box production (as envisioned by the authors) or as original director/choreographer Bob Fosse's splashy, dance-driven spectacle, which included some of the most brilliant staging in Broadway history.

Williams Bay — Barry Butters started his career as a student teacher in Williams Bay.
This summer, he will return, but this time as the principal of the Williams Bay Junior/Senior High School. He was hired by the Williams Bay School Board on May 23 over 48 other applicants.
Butters, 49, will take over for Dan Bice, who retired after 21 years as principal in Williams Bay. Bice started teaching in Williams Bay in 1974 and was named principal of the junior/senior high school in 1990.
Butters said he remembers his short student-teaching stop over in Williams Bay in 1986. All 12 grades were still in what is now the Williams Bay Elementary School. He said he worked with math teacher Darla Thiel, who is still there. And, he said, he remembers watching Dan Bice teach social studies.
"He was an amazing teacher," Butters said.
A Delavan native, since 1994 Butters has been a math teacher, department head and coach at Elkhorn Area High School. He's married to Patricia, also a Delavan native, and a second- grade teacher at Westside elementary school, Elkhorn. Older daughter Kelsey is a sophomore at Stevens Point. Younger daughter Maddie will be a junior at Elkhorn Area High School.
They live in Elkhorn right now.
Butters has a bachelor of science in education degree in mathematics from University of Wisconsin-Whitewater and a master's degree in education administration from University of Wisconsin Madison.
He hasn't been in the area his entire career. Butters spent two stints at Wilmot High School from 1986 to 1991 as math teacher and coach and, later, as a vice principal and athletic director.

From 1991 to 1992, he was principal at Viroqua High School, way over in Vernon County. Butters said his wife gave birth in the middle of the school year. He said they agreed that moving back home would be in their best interests.
Butters returned to Wilmot High School, where he again taught math from 1992 to 1994, and then to Elkhorn.
"I knew at some point I would head back to administration," he said. "In the meantime, I went back to the classroom, which was the right move for me."
Butters won a Herb Kohl Fellowship in 2004.
When the principal position opened up at Williams Bay, Butters felt the time was right to make that move back to administration.

Butters said he wasn't throwing his paperwork around the state looking for an administrative position. Williams Bay was the right opportunity, he said.
"It was proximity," he said of his application to Williams Bay. "I don't have to uproot my family."
Butters also said that when he checked on the academic performance of Williams Bay schools, he was impressed.
"It's a tribute to everybody," he said of the district's academic accomplishments. "(Williams Bay) is the hidden gem of Walworth County."
"I'm really looking forward to the position."

On the other hand, Butters said it's not going to be easy taking over a building that was led for 20 years by someone who was well liked and well respected.
"The biggest challenge I will have is to try convince everyone we need to try harder," he said.
The other big problem will be the budgetary woes. "But that's hitting everybody," he said.
In addition to teaching math at Elkhorn, Butters was PLTW (Project Lead The Way) instructor there. The PLTW is a program to encourage students to study science, technology, engineering and math.
From 2001 to present, he was an adjunct math instructor at Gateway Technical College and from 2005 to present, he was adjunct math instructor at Aurora University.

When the San Diego Chargers drafted the late Junior Seau in the first round in 1990, his professionalism and skills throughout his career on and off the field made him one the most iconic sports figures in the city of San Diego. Did the Bolts find a similar linebacker twenty-three years later?
The Chargers jump in the 2013 draft to snatch Manti Te'o has already drawn some comparisons to the late Hall of Fame linebacker because of his intelligence and playmaking ability as a Heisman candidate at Notre Dame. However, there are those critics and fans that deem this judgment premature because of Te'o size, quickness, and adjustments playing the Chargers 3-4 defense. In front of Te'o significant test lie ahead in making the adjustments to a pass friendly league that utilizes the tight end and running backs as much as the wide receivers.
Last month, the Chargers held spring training camp with both veterans and rookies. During drills, Te'o participated alongside starter Donald Butler as "mike" linebacker and the regular middle linebacker with the rookies in the 11 on 11 drills. This was certainly a step in the right direction for Te'o to be a three down linebacker that both Head Coach Mike McCoy and Defensive Coordinator John Pagano expect from him. The team was impressed with his commitment and passion. Despite some rookie mistakes, Te'o was able to showcase his alertness to the ball by batting down several passes and picking up different receiver routes.
Te'o does bring to the Chargers outside distractions, but he is winning over his teammates by handling it as a professional. He will definitely have to prove himself on the football field each Sunday, but he does bring the same passion, determination, and intensity that made Seau one of the best linebackers to play game of football. Will Te'o be the next iconic sports athlete in San Diego? Only time will tell, but if he inspires the defense like Seau and becomes a playmaker on the defensive side of the football, he has a great chance to live up to these high expectations already placed on him by many fans.

New Weight Facility Nearing Completion
Pretty soon there will be a lot of activity going on down in West Virginia University's brand new $2.6 million donor-supported Milan Puskar Center weight room nearing completion.
WVU Director of Strength and Conditioning Mike Joseph estimated that about a month's worth of finishing work still remains before Mountaineer players will have full access to it.
"We have been anticipating the day that we can use this for a long time," said Joseph. "There are a lot of people who contributed to this and it's a process that has been a long time coming, but when it's done it is definitely going to be an outstanding facility."
According to Mountaineer coach Dana Holgorsen, the new strength and conditioning center will put West Virginia on par with the rest of the programs in the Big 12.
Joseph says a slight extension toward the field has helped expand the weight room from approximately 24,000 square feet under the previous setup to nearly 26,000 square feet when it will be completed in late July.
"Before we had a lot of dead space and bad space and now there is not an area in here that cannot be used," Joseph explained.
Aside from the slight addition, the biggest change is the removal of the staff offices that were once located in the middle of the training area – those will now be situated along the far wall close to the visiting team's locker room. Moving the offices has opened up a large area in the middle of the weight room where players have room to assemble before workouts and also before games.
According to Joseph, on game days, instead of running out from the tunnel along the press box side of the stadium, the Mountaineers will now enter from the weight room in the middle of the field where fans will get a much clearer view of the players.
"Some of the lighting in here will allow us to give it sort of a tunnel effect when the players are about to take the field," said Joseph, noting that the flooring will have the ability to change colors and assimilate yard markers when the players walk through the weight room on game days.
Most of the equipment used in the past will be situated in similar areas; the in-lay platforms and power racks will remain near the team locker room and weight training apparatuses and machines in their similar locations, with treadmills stationed at just about every wall surrounding the facility. On the far wall toward the field, Joseph has reserved a space to honor all of the Iron Mountaineer performers recognized by prior WVU strength and conditioning staffs through the years.
There will also be a display for West Virginia's past and future consensus All-American players. And prominently highlighted in the open space just below the Reynolds Family Academic Support Center will be four gold, lighted columns each having one of these four words: Team, Strength, Intent and Discipline.
"The graphics have really improved the area aesthetically. The biggest thing is our weight room is now a showpiece for the program and it helps us with recruiting," said Joseph.
Another unique feature is a 40-yard track that will enable the strength staff to focus on speed and agility work at any time of the year. Joseph noted that there are very few college weight training facilities that he is aware of with a running surface similar to the one Mountaineer players will be using that is located right in the weight room.
The side wall closest to the athletic training room will have a full service nutrition center and flat-screen televisions will be located throughout, as well as a state-of-the-art sound system that is a must for all weight training facilities to help get the guys pumped up for high-energy workouts.
"In terms of efficiency and in terms of us being able to get things done, this is going to be one of the best in the country," Joseph proclaimed.
Joseph said he has visited a lot of weight rooms around the country through the years and he incorporated some of the ideas that he liked from those into the space the Mountaineer players will soon be occupying.
"I think this is the best setup," he admitted. "Every strength coach has their own preferences of what they like, but this is the best way for us to train our athletes in terms of my philosophy and how we do things. Overall, it will be a great situation for us.
"The guys are kind of anxious to get down here and prove that they are worthy of this facility and that West Virginia football is continuing in the right direction," Joseph concluded.

FORT WORTH -- American Eagle Airlines, Inc. (American Eagle Airlines), a wholly owned subsidiary of American Airlines Group Inc., announced today that the company will be changing its name to Envoy in spring 2014.
This change is being made to give the company its own distinct identity and eliminate the confusion between the company's current name and American Eagle, the regional flying brand of American Airlines, Inc. With the formation of American Airlines Group, the 10 carriers currently providing regional service for the legacy American and US Airways networks will all eventually fly under the American Eagle brand.
"Our people and our company - which is one the largest regional carriers in the world with some of the best people in our business - deserve a name that is all our own," said Pedro Fabregas, the president and CEO of American Eagle Airlines. "By taking on the Envoy name, we can better differentiate ourselves from the competition and better market ourselves. This is important for both our people and our company as we further expand our ground handling business."
Envoy was chosen as the company's new name after an extensive selection and vetting process that included looking at more than 1,000 names and considering feedback from American Eagle Airlines employees. The name was chosen because Envoy is reflective of what the company does for the airlines it works with - serving as their ambassador and a representative to their customers.
Customers traveling on both American Eagle Airlines and American Eagle-branded regional air service will not experience any changes to their travel experience as a result of this name change. Ticket counters and gates will continue to be branded American and American Eagle and Envoy's aircraft will continue to operate using the American Eagle brand and livery. Once the necessary regulatory processes and approvals are complete, "Operated by Envoy" will be added to the company's aircraft paint scheme and noted on customers' tickets much like it is for American's other regional carrier partners currently flying using the American Eagle brand.

In my sojourn today
Friendly faces I seek,
Open welcoming hands,
Pathway arms to soft bosom.
Warm favor Cold vapor.
Silent hushes, Malevolent
Goodwill helps, joyous hearts.
Deep beings, not fickle.
Sensitive souls, truthful liars.
Active minds, bright spirits.
In my travails thence on,
Helping fangs I pray
Attack my every play.
Demure, not boisterous
Observant, not thunderous.
Today, I crave like-minds.

openSUSE 11.1 Unveiled
OpenSUSE 11.1 rolled out today, sporting more than 230 new features, many updates, and a brand new license. The newest release is also the first built entirely on the openSUSE Build Service.
According to the announcement, openSUSE 11.1 also includes Liberation fonts, improvements to YaST, and updates to Gnome, KDE, and OpenOffice.
"The KDE experience has been vastly improved in this release," says Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier, openSUSE Community Manager. He says that some features, including KWin 3-D features and Plasma improvements, were backported from KDE 4.2, which will be out this January.
"Also, this release is the first that was built in the openSUSE Build Service, which paves the way for much more community contribution in future releases," Zonker says. "I'm also psyched about the new license, which kills the old unpopular EULA and makes openSUSE much easier to redistribute."
OpenSUSE 11.1 includes Linux 184.108.40.206, Glibc 2.9, Python 2.6, Perl 5.10, Mono 2.0, a new printer module, redesigned partitioner module, and a security module.

openSUSE 11.1 UnveiledOpenSUSE 11.1 rolled out today, sporting more than 230 new features, many updates, and a brand new license. The newest release is also the first built entirely on the openSUSE Build Service. If you think that the title of this post is useful, chances are you are considering about using Linux as your primary or even just an alternative Os when you're just sick of your old system. However many think that Linux is too complicated that it appeals only to geeks, Linux-magazine.com can prove that this fantastic operating system is actually for everyone. It is always fascinating to read about openSUSE 11.1 Unveiled.
Ginger Sill,
New openSUSE 11.1Yep - it's out alright. I loaded it and for a week a put it to the test on two 1.88 gig server machines acting as desktops for me. I have ran openSUSE 10.3 on them for the last year or so and really have gotten used to the excellent performances of the desktop and server mechanisms of 10.3...and I will say - I love 10.3...what I am currently typing this with.
Putting openSUSE on this very same box and it's twin - I have seen a direct and immediate 20 percent drop in performance. I haven't added any 3D drivers or any other extras and run straight up just like I do with 10.3 and 11.1 is definately not on these boxes anymore.
I really like the feel and action of 11.1 - but, when I get faster machines then I will run it. Until then - I will suffer my happiness with 10.3.

Are you saying that since Bisping runs his mouth the most, we shouldn't have any opinion on what any other fighter has to say because it isn't as bad?
Do you think that Bisping's reputation has not suffered that consequences of his attitude? That people still hold him in high regard, and respect his opinion and generally view him as someone with class an integrity?
I don't have a very strong opinion about what Hendricks has been saying, I'm just not following you on how the two are related. Seems like a weird statement.

Ravens running back Ray Rice was indicted by a grand jury Thursday for third-degree aggravated assault for allegedly striking his fiancée. The incident occurred Feb. 15 during the early-morning hours at an Atlantic City casino.
Rice initially faced charges of simple assault, but prosecutors returned a more serious charge of aggravated assault. The charge carries a potential penalty of three to five years in prison.
The Ravens issued a brief statement following Thursday's charge.
"This is part of the due process for Ray," the Ravens' statement said. "We know there is more to Ray Rice than this one incident."
At the NFL owners meetings this week, coach John Harbaugh said he did not foresee a scenario in which Rice would not be with the Ravens next season. The entire Ravens organization, including owner Steve Bisciotti, has been publically supportive of Rice.
"I'm very confident that he's someone we want as part of our team," Harbaugh said, according to a transcript provided by the Pro Football Writers of America. "He will be part of our team. He's a person of character. The thing that's really important is to be able to support the person without condoning the action. There's no justifying what happened."
However, Rice could be subject to discipline from the NFL no matter what transpires legally. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said Wednesday that the league was monitoring the case.
After the incident, the website TMZ obtained casino surveillance video of Rice dragging his fiancée, Janay Palmer, out of an elevator. Palmer appeared to be unconscious.
Rice's attorney, Michael Diamondstein, told the Press of Atlantic City that neither Rice nor Palmer wanted to move forward with the case.
"On behalf of Ray Rice we vehemently deny that Mr. Rice committed an aggravated assault," Diamondstein told the Press of Atlantic City Press. "Both Mr. Rice and Miss Palmer are together, they are happy and they are in counseling."
Palmer was also originally charged with simple assault, but charges against her have been dismissed.

Monday was the deadline for would-be candidates to file for their parties' primaries in Texas, but because of the court battles involving redistricting, the Texas House and Senate campaigners will wait a bit longer, along with U.S. congressional candidates.
Still, races at the county level are ready to go.
In Brazos County, there will be just one contested race, and it's a four-horse race for the District Attorney seat. Former District Court Judge Rick Davis will seek the office he came up short for last election. Like Davis, David Hilburn is currently a local defense attorney, but he used to be a prosecutor in the DA's office.
A pair of current assistant DAs are also in the running. Jarvis Parsons serves as the chief prosecutor in the 272nd District Court and has worked in Brazos County since 2002. Ray Thomas has been in the same office since 2005, and helps present indictments to grand juries.
All four candidates are Republicans, and are looking to replace Democrat Bill Turner, who is retiring from the office after nearly three decades.
All other races are uncontested with Republican incumbents running.
Because of potential court rulings in the future, county officials could not rule out the filing period being reopened down the line for county races.

Long-time reader Anita (you may recognize her posting under the name Anitacska–try typing that ten times fast!) shared this fun, bold look she created with Dior's Tropical Quint. She said she's never done such a bright look before!
- Eyes: She began by laying down Guerlain Eyeshadow Primer as her eyeshadow base. For eyeshadow, she primarily used Dior's Tropical (#940) Eyeshadow Quint. On the inner corner, she applied a turquoise eyeshadow and then applied the light purple to the middle of the lid, above the crease, and on the lower lash line. She used a darker purple on the outer corner and crease with a lighter pink above the creas. Anita used Laura Geller's Blush 'n Brighten in Boysenberry/Amaretti to highlight the brow bone. To line her waterline, she used Urban Decay Covet 24/7 Eyeliner and finished lashes with Boots No. 7 Extreme Length Mascara in black.
- Cheeks: Anita applied MAC Two Virtues Mineralize Blush on her cheeks with Laura Geller's Blush 'n Brighten in Boysenberry/Amaretti to highlight the top of her cheeks.
- Lips: She kept it simple and applied MAC Bubblegum lipstick to her lips for some color.

The Chateau de Roquebrune
Medieval fort without which no perched village would be complete.Built in 970 by Conrad 1st, Earl of Ventimiglia, as defence against raiding Saracens, the fortress included the whole village.

Stony beach which runs a kilometre or two in length to Carnoles and Menton. Its not very crowded, and it's not difficult to see why.

Inaccessible other than by on foot, the beach at Roquebrune is mercifully peaceful.

Roquebrune-Cap-Martin Restaurants
les Deux Freres: Restaurant with a view
The restaurant is right at the main (only) plaza of the town. I went to Roquebrune by train and mounted the stairs, all 300 vertical Meters. The food is french nouvelle cuisine, and the waiter was kind enough to indulge my lacking french skills by speaking german. I appreciate that from a Dutchman.
The restaurant's terrace offers a nice view over to Monaco.
All in all I dined very nicely and loved the food and the view.
I was also very glad I didn't sprain or break anything on my way down to the trainstation at nearly sea level.
Favorite Dish: The wine was good. I had a half bottle of Bandol.

The processions of Roquebrune
On the 5th of August Roquebrune is in a festival atmosphere. The procession, showing various scenes from the suffering of Christ, is drawing thousands of people to the village. It is done exactly the way it was done since 1467, the year the plague was defeated and in return the procession was a sign of gratitude towards God.
On Good Friday another famous procession goes through Roquebrune. In the evening, the "bringing to the grave" of Jezus is simulated in this "procession du Christ Mort". 60 actors play in this parade and the village is alluminated in beautiful candles made of snalehouses and shells.
