Cowboys Getting Pedicures
My boys and I had to go to the city to get some new tennis shoes Monday evening—yes, I still call them tennis shoes and probably always will—and on our way out of the mall, we walked past a nail place. In this season in my life, whenever I see a nail place, all I can think about is how blissful and heavenly it is for a nice person to poke and pick at my feet for 30 minutes or so, and I'm like a Pavlovian dog.
This happened to me Monday evening. I just started veering toward the door, powerless to stop myself.
Then I had the most brilliant idea.
Oh, they resisted.
They balked.
They turned up their noses.
Then they stuck their feet in a bubbling bath of hot water and discovered that the they were sitting in massage chairs and they were totally in.
And now I don't think I ever want to get a pedicure again unless by boys go with me.
It was hilarious.
I warned them that it might tickle a little.
But it tickled a lot.
Our sweet nail technician was very patient, going back and forth between the two boys and enduring their giggles and squirms.
The hot rock treatment was almost too much for them to take.
"Ow, that hurts!"
"Ah, that's nice!"
"Ouch, that's hot!"
"I'm in heaven, mom!"
I just nodded the whole time and said, "Yes, my son. I understand."
It was a fun, unexpected ending to our tennis shoe shopping trip!
But the best part of the day was later, when we returned to the ranch and the boys ran into the house and exclaimed to their dad that they'd just gotten their first pedicure.
Marlboro Man's expression…was priceless.
It has sustained me all week long.

For those hoping that Ree can convince MM to go for a pedi, don't count on it. If his feet are anything like those of the men in my family, they are terrified of someone seeing their feet, much less touching them.
Most guys in the farming/ranching lifestyle have been stepped on by 1800+lbs animals, had heavy and/or glowing hot things dropped on them, and had more than a touch of frostbite over several years. Their feet are either so sensitive or so numb that the idea of someone messing with them can truly be scary. Not to mention how messed up most of their toenails are.
Enjoy your mind's eye seeing MMs reaction, and don't judge to harshly if he never goes near one himself.

Their horizons have been expanded, their experiences made richer, and they are no less tough for it. Happy Mother's Day!
Sheila H. On Friday, May 9 at 2:04 pm
LOVE IT! I don't think I could ever convince my son of getting a pedicure with me. But he's 17.
Margaret On Friday, May 9 at 2:04 pm
Rember the permanent rage for men, long hair and beards? After all, the top country singers had perms, long hair and beards! My Mom laughed a lot when my youngest brother permed his hair! Your boys will grow up to be men with a deep appreciation of women!!
Linia On Friday, May 9 at 2:39 pm
I think the expression on the boys' faces is priceless. WHAT FUN!
It is such a relaxing experience. Thank you for sharing.
Terry J On Friday, May 9 at 4:59 pm
I made my grown son go with me on my birthday, with him protesting all the way, but succombing to the delight of hot water and foot massages. His girlfriend thanked me profusely. And, occasionally, he goes with her. You're right to start 'em young, PW!
Angela Petree On Friday, May 9 at 5:08 pm
Oh, that is the best place for pedis!! And the best story about pedis I have ever heard! Love it! Now my footsies are jealous…
Elaine T On Friday, May 9 at 7:16 pm
Should have told Lad you already made an appointment for him! I was smiling as I was looking at the pictures and my husband wanted to know what I was smiling about. I showed him the pictures and he said he was jealous. I never had a pedicure so I think I'm going to make appointments for the both of us.
Janice C-NC On Friday, May 9 at 7:25 pm
Good for them! 3 years before my grandson joined the Marines, he went and got a pedicure with his Mom, Grandma and Great Grandma. What a treat that was for all us women.He's a special young man. Do I sound like a proud Grandma? You betcha!
christy On Friday, May 9 at 7:50 pm
I know two things for certain after reading this post; #1 real men get their feet soaked in bubbly blue water and let their mama's post it on her blog for the world to see. And #2 I do not know your husband, never met the man. But after reading this blog for so long and listening to you tell stories about him, I pictured the look on his face and started to belly laugh…it too will sustain me all weekend long!! Be blessed this mother's day.
JennJ On Friday, May 9 at 9:00 pm
Pedicures are one of my 8 year old son's favorite things to do!! He adores being pampered!
Recently, at the farmers market he got a chair massage, which he also thought was heavenly!
Boys need pampering too!!! Love it! Next you need to get Ladd in the pedicure chair!!! My husband loves them too!!
Hieu On Friday, May 9 at 9:05 pm

Ree, you are too funny! I wish you took a pic of your hubby's face
Minnesota Red On Saturday, May 10 at 3:57 pm
Horses get pedicures all the time; nothin' to it!
Jay On Saturday, May 10 at 4:04 pm
I have two grown sons. I taught them to push their cuticles back, trim their nails, and generally care for their hands. It was part of the personal care ritual that we emphasized. Both of them at one time or another have commented to me that the "young ladies" often commented on their well cared for hands during their dating days. My younger son works as a mechanical technician with tools everyday but you'd never know by his hands . I am sure that cowboys too, can take good care of themselves.
Randa On Saturday, May 10 at 4:10 pm
There is NO pampering on earth like a pedicure. My favorite way to treat myself. Had to take a break for a while ( breast cancer RUINS your toenails & causes neuropathy), but had a pedicure a couple weeks ago. HEAVEN. My dad's in his 70s and has regular pedicures. Real men get pedicures, too!
Karrie On Saturday, May 10 at 7:25 pm
I love this story. I will have to tell it to my husband.
Chel On Saturday, May 10 at 7:33 pm

Amand Keeley-Thurman On Saturday, May 10 at 11:32 pm
So cute! I think it is awesome you took the boys to get there punkers (my word for baby feet) done! Careful, they might want a pedi every Monday!
Mary Ann On Sunday, May 11 at 7:19 am
My husband is 6'7″ and wears a size 15 shoe…he wanted me to cut his toenails but I talked him into a pedicure..he loved (loves) it! His secret pleasure now although I made sure it didn't stay a secret!

I just finished watching "Edna Mae's Birthday" episode from last year, again. It was so cute and funny, when your boys went out in the yard to find things for her birthday card. Oh, those boys are too sweet!
I hope you had a wonderful Mothers Day. You deserve it!

I really wish there was a picture of your husbands face when you told him…… I almost literally LOL at my computer… Love it!
Bridget On Monday, May 12 at 9:56 am
Tell Marlboro Man and your boys I was at a hot springs and spa in Southern California a few years ago having a pedicure and one of the Clippers basketball team was getting a pedicure, too, flanked by two hot chicks (his friends).
Dian On Monday, May 12 at 12:16 pm
So fun….the boys really trust you! LOL such a fun memory,,..,.,

Love this, Ree!! At the end of last summer, my husband and I were with my in-laws at the beach, and my Mother-in-law and I wanted to veer right in and get pedicures, too. Well, we wrangled the men in there with us to get their toes did, two country boys from lower Alabama, and they both enjoyed it as well! Telling the rest of the family went about like your telling MM! Hilarious!
Heidi S On Tuesday, May 13 at 9:49 am
For my mother in law's birthday, we took her, my father in law, my husband, and my girls to all go get pedicures. It was hilarious to see all five of them in a row having their feet worked on. Both men really enjoyed it and although I didn't convince either of them to have their nails painted, I did take many pictures to blackmail them with for the future.

Kim L. On Tuesday, May 13 at 4:06 pm
Do you pronounce it TENNIS shoes or TENNY shoes? I'm a tenny shoes girl.
Now I want to take my boys for pedicures! I thought that was something I traded in when I got all boys! You have given me hope Ree!

I finally talked my husband into getting a pedicure and now he goes regularly. He calls it his "happy feet"
Joan J. On Wednesday, May 14 at 10:18 am
I loved this entry, I laughed out loud. Your boys have the most expressive faces.
Nancy, from Alberta On Wednesday, May 14 at 10:26 am
LOL, you should have had your camera ready when they told MM.
Wendy T On Wednesday, May 14 at 6:39 pm
Yes! I do think Ree needs to get a gift certificate for Marboro Man and his boys to get manicures for Fathers Day!
Ree you need to be able to do this with your daughters and your boys. Getting a pedicare for the boys will not change them in anyway, it will show them how nice and relaxing it is and when they are married they will get these for their wives to enjoy, just like you enjoy them Ree! You are a wonderful mother and wife!
TJinWA On Thursday, May 15 at 9:22 pm
Priceless! Having been raised on a ranch, I found this hilarious. Literally, laughed out loud.

This story is hilarious and your boys are adorable!
Ali Caprara On Thursday, May 22 at 10:13 am
NEXT STEP …..is the manicure. I love men that have very nice manicured hands. Their mommas raised them right. Your cowboys use their hands and gloves so much…be sure and get a pic of Ladd's face when they announce this one!!!!!! Truly my nail spa is half men these days…..they usually know a good thing! Even if you have to rope them into it~ Hugs
gaylien mendes On Tuesday, June 3 at 7:13 pm
Made me chuckle to see bryce and todd laughing… cause I know how ticklish it can be. I jerk a bit myself ,so sensitive.lol. You would have won the photo of the year with mm's expression on learning what you all did.lol….
justjane On Wednesday, June 4 at 8:46 am
I did giggle out loud a lot reading this post. So many things to smile & laugh about. Perhaps my favorite is how his expression sustain you for a week.
Sandy Pudoff On Monday, June 16 at 9:40 am
An old but true axiom, "Your feet are your foundation, if you don't take care of your feet your entire body suffers." MM possesses more than his share of common sense, he will see the wisdom in that statement. Pedicures are just a quasi medical procedure for maintaining the health of your feet. The attending hoopla (bubbles, polish, massage) can be dispensed with if it is off putting. MM works physically harder than about 90% of the men in this country, he NEEDS to take care of his feet. Let him know that Medicare even pays for pedis if you have diabetes, that's how vital they are. Then get us a photo please!!!
Carla On Thursday, June 19 at 4:18 pm
Love it! Wish I could get my two boys to do that with me!!

Georgia, Florida to Play 4Kay
No. 14 Georgia returns to action on Sunday when it hosts Florida in the Lady Bulldogs' participation in the "Play 4Kay" initiative. Tip off is set for 1 p.m. and the contest will be televised regionally on CSS.
In addition to the Lady Bulldogs donning pink uniforms for the game, there are three promotional giveaways in association with Play 4Kay: the first 500 fans will receive pink t-shirts, the initial 1,000 fans be given pink shakers and the first 300 UGA students will receive pink basketball shooting sleeves.
The Lady Bulldogs are now 16-3 overall and 4-2 in SEC play and should be eager to erase the memories of last weekend's loss to the Aggies.
A Jasmine duo continues to lead Georgia offensively. Jasmine Hassell, who led UGA for most of the non-conference slate, regained top scoring honors following the Texas A&M outing at 12.1 ppg. Jasmine James, who topped the Lady Bulldogs' scoring efforts for the last four games, averages 11.9 ppg.
Shacobia Barbee, a freshman who was a two-time Miss Tennessee Basketball at Riverdale High School in Murfreesboro, Tenn., also has been an extremely solid contributor and leads the Lady Bulldogs in rebounds (106), assists (59 is tied with James) and steals (52).
Florida arrives in Athens at 13-7 overall and 2-4 in the SEC. The Gators dropped their third consecutive conference contest on Thursday, losing to Ole Miss, 88-81.
Jennifer George, a consensus preseason first-team All-SEC selection, leads Florida at 12.8 ppg and 8.3 rpg. George has missed two league games with a shoulder injury but returned against to log 23 minutes of action against the Lady Rebels.
In addition, Jaterra Bonds and Sydney Moss add double-digit scoring averages of 12.4 ppg and 10.3 ppg, respectively.

Series History versus Florida
Georgia is 46-14 against the Gators, including a 25-3 mark in Athens.
Three of the Gators' wins came prior to Andy Landers' tenure as head coach, making him and even more impressive 46-11 versus Florida.
The contest will be the 61st between the Lady Bulldogs and the Gators, making Florida Georgia's most familiar foe...just ahead of Tennessee with 59 matchups.
Over the past four seasons, the Lady Bulldogs and Gators split their eight matchups, with the home team holding serve each time.
In the most recent meeting last Feb. 19 in Gainesvillle, the No. 18 Georgia Lady Bulldogs dropped a 61-57 decision to the Gators in a back-and-forth contest that featured nine ties and 15 lead changes.
Jasmine James led Georgia with 15 points, four steals and three rebounds. Anne Marie Armstrong recorded 12 points and seven rebounds, while Meredith Mitchell notched 10 points and seven rebounds.
The Lady Bulldogs led 54-53 with 2:47 remaining before the Gators closed out the contest on an 8-3 run, including making both ends of a pair of one-and-ones in the final 10 seconds.
The last meeting in Athens was Jan. 12 last season when 19-point scoring efforts by both Armstrong and Khaalidah Miller led No. 19 Georgia in a 61-55 victory over Florida.
The Lady Bulldogs led by 13 points at the intermission and maintained a comfortable advantage well into the second half. Georgia owned a 40-28 edge with 11:50 left before a 9-0 run by the Gators saw Florida pull within three.
A trey by Miller and a jumper by Krista Donald put Georgia back up by eight. Florida closed the gap to 53-49 before a James free throw to start the final two minutes helped seal the Gators' fate.
Last time out...
No. 13 Georgia suffered its first home loss of the season, 64-46, to No. 20 Texas A&M last Sunday afternoon at Stegeman Coliseum.
The Lady Bulldogs were led offensively by Jasmine Hassell with nine points, while Shacobia Barbee and Erika Ford tied for team-high rebounding honors with eight apiece.
A jumper by Barbee tied the game at 8-8, before the Aggies went on a seven minute, 16-2 run that gave them a definitive 24-10 lead with five minutes left in the half. Texas A&M capped the run off with three consecutive treys in just over a minute.
Midway through the second half, Krista Donald then hit four free throws to help ignite a Lady Bulldog 14-2 surge that made the score 53-38, but the Aggies responded with a 6-0 spurt of their own to thwart the threat.
Background on Play 4Kay
The 2013 Play 4Kay initiative (formerly known as WBCA Pink Zone) is an opportunity for a nation of coaches to raise breast cancer awareness and funds for research on the court, across campuses, in communities and beyond.
Since its inception back in 2007, the Play 4Kay initiative has raised more than $2 million to support women's cancer research.
Kay Yow, legendary N.C. State head coach, was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 1987, and passed away on January 24, 2009, after facing her third bout with the disease.
The Kay Yow Cancer Fund raises money to further cutting-edge research conducted by the nation's top doctors and medical experts to allow more patients access to experimental drugs and clinical trials. The majority of these research projects are privately funded.
The Fund, in partnership with the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) and The V Foundation, is a charitable organization committed to being a part of finding an answer in the fight against women's cancers through raising money for scientific research, assisting the under served and unifying people for a common cause.
Searching for first-half offense
On Jan. 10, the Lady Bulldogs poured in 42 first-half points en route to putting up a season-high 95 on the scoreboard in a win over Alabama.
Three days later, Georgia tallied 42 points total to top No. 18 South Carolina in the lowest scoring output in a victory in the 40-season history of the Lady Bulldog Basketball.
Georgia scored a season-low 25 first-half points against the Gamecocks, not a startling fact considering South Carolina leads the SEC and ranks No. 3 nationally in scoring defense.
What is somewhat concerning is the Lady Bulldogs' first-half struggles since then.
Georgia put up 19 points before intermission at Arkansas, rallying from an 11-point halftime deficit to defeat the Razorbacks by four. Last Sunday, Georgia scored just 16 first-half points against Texas A&M - the Lady Bulldogs' third season-low output in as many games.
Hassell earns SEC accolade
Jasmine Hassell was named SEC Player of the Week on Jan. 14 after averaging 20.0 points in the Lady Bulldogs' previous two victories over No. 18 South Carolina and Alabama.
Hassell scored 21 points against Alabama in Tuscaloosa, a career high against SEC competition. That bettered her previous mark of 20 points established versus both Tennessee in the 2011 SEC Tournament and Ole Miss her freshman year.
The senior from Lebanon, Tenn., then scored 19 points versus South Carolina, accounting for 45 percent of the Lady Bulldogs' total offense in the 42-40 win. She did so while playing with a protective mask after suffering a slight nasal fracture during the Alabama game.
For the week, Hassell connected on 15-of-22 (.682) of her FGs and 12-of-12 (.833) of her FTs.
Hassell is the 23rd different Lady Bulldog to win SEC Player of the Week honors since the award's inception in 1985. Those players - a list which also includes Anne Marie Armstrong and Jasmine James - have combined to secure 44 SEC Player of the Week accolades.
UGA in nation's top-50 10 times
Georgia is ranked among the nation's top-50 teams in 10 statistics, including five in the top 20.
The Lady Bulldogs are No. 2 in turnover margin (+8.58), No. 11 in steals (12.8), No. 12 in scoring margin (+18.1), No. 15 in assist-to-TO ratio (1.11), No. 20 in fewest TOs per game (14.0), No. 21 in scoring defense (52.2), No. 45 in scoring offense (70.3), No. 43 in assists (15.5), No. 46 in FG pct. (.426) and No. 49 in rebound margin (+5.5).
Lady Bulldogs hit "magic number"
Georgia has furthered one of the greatest statistical indicators in any sport six times this season.
The Lady Bulldogs put up 80 or more points in wins over Savannah State, St. Bonaventure, Furman, Mercer, Lipscomb and Alabama to improve to 425-6 when reaching the 80-point plateau under Andy Landers.
That converts to an almost unfathomable winning percentage of .98607889.
It also highlights the Lady Bulldogs have hit that mark in more than half of Landers' victories at UGA.
Playing time being distributed
A year ago, six Lady Bulldogs averaged between 20.0 and 34.5 minutes per game. All told, five players logged all 40 minutes a combined 25 times.
This season, "PT" is being more equally distributed. Ten Georgia players are averaging between 12.6 and 27.8 minutes played per game.
Most dramatically affected has been Jasmine James. James averaged 35.4 mpg during her first three seasons and played 30 minutes or more in 82 of 91 games played over that span.
This season, James leads the team in MP but has only played 30 or more in eight of 19 contests. She did log all 40 minutes for the first time this season in Fayetteville since back-up Marjorie Butler was out with a slight knee injury.
James joins UGA's top-20 scorers
Jasmine James has ascended from No. 31 to No. 20 among UGA's career scoring leaders during 2012-13. Twice this season, James has passed multiple players on the Lady Bulldogs' career scoring leaders ledger in a single game.
During the victory over New Mexico, James' 17 points leapfrogged her over No. 28 Pam Irwin-Osbolt, No. 27 Carla Green and No. 26 Cynthia Collins.
At Tennessee, James moved ahead of both No. 21 Tawana McDonald and No. 20 Stacey Ford.
James enters today's Florida game with 1,276 points, which is 120 away from the current No. 19 tally of Camille Lowe.
Hassell hits millennium as well
Jasmine Hassell scored her 1,000th career point against Savannah State, becoming the 33rd Lady Bulldog to reach that milestone.
The former McDonald's and WBCA prep All-American from Wilson Central High in Lebanon, Tenn., has developed consistently throughout her career. Hassell averaged 6.2 ppg as a freshman, 9.6 ppg as a sophomore and a team-high 13.0 ppg as a junior.
Hassell moved past Alexis Kendrick to No. 26 among the Lady Bulldogs' career scoring leaders at Arkansas. She has 1,170 points, four from No. 25 Sherelle Warren and 18 shy of No. 24 Angel Robinson.
A milestone in the making
Anne Marie Armstrong needs 106 points to become the third Georgia senior to reach 1,000 career points.
Armstrong would join Jasmine James and Jasmine Hassell among the Lady Bulldogs' 1,000-point club and make them the second trio of classmates to do so.
James scored her 1000th point late last season at South Carolina and Hassell became the 33rd Lady Bulldog to reach the millennium milestone against Savannah State on Nov. 20.
The only three classmates to top 1,000 points at UGA to date are the Class of 1997's La'Keshia Frett (1,850 points), Tracy Henderson (1,764) and Kedra Holland-Corn (1,566).
Depth showing up elsewhere
Georgia's depth has provided a big boost in a couple of "specialty stats."
The Lady Bulldogs' bench has contributed 467 points, 201 more than the opposing teams' reserves.
Georgia has scored 463 points off of opponents' turnovers, while giving up just 179 - a massive +284 margin.

As a free service provided to support all writers in our Aquinas College community - including students, faculty, staff, and alumni - we meet with writers at every stage of the writing process, from brainstorming to final drafts. With an emphasis on improving thinking as well as writing, the AQ Writing Center can provide fresh perspectives and ongoing support for all writing projects. Our drop-in, no-appointment-necessary policy - accompanied by daytime, evening, and weekend hours in several locations on campus (including a 10 p.m. to midnight shift in one of our residence halls!) makes our Writing Center convenient, accessible and writer-friendly. The faculty and peer consultants in the AQ Writing Center are equipped to assist with a wide range of writing interests and academic disciplines.
As the Spring 2014 semester progresses, remind your student to visit the Aquinas College Writing Center. We are a resource students don't want to miss! >Learn more about the Aquinas College Writing Center
It is hard to believe that many of our Spring 2014 study abroad programs are already approaching Spring Break when it seems like our groups were just meeting at the airport, praying for no weather delays to the starts of their semesters. Aquinas has five semester-long programs for Spring 2014; our students are studying in Angers, France; Tully Cross, Ireland; Santa Ana, Costa Rica; Lüneburg, Germany; and Tübingen, Germany.
In 2012, Aquinas College expanded the variety of internship experiences offered through the Ireland Program by creating the Ireland Community Aides Internships course. This elective course is offered in collaboration with a local non-profit organization connected to myriad programs and partnerships in the region which host our students as interns in such areas as conservation efforts; community radio; theatre; social care programs; second chance educational programs;
During the March 7-16, 2014 Spring Break week, five service-learning programs take Aquinas students around the U.S. and across the globe. In Nicaragua, students work with International Samaritan and the Jose Artigas School, while they learn about garbage dump communities. In the Dominican Republic, students assist a doctor and nurse to offer medical clinics to people in several rural villages. Other groups travel to Kansas City, Missouri, and Eastern Kentucky to complete home repairs with Jerusalem Farm and Christian Appalachian Project. A final group heads to New Orleans to meet the community of St. Peter Claver Church and work with kids at the School.
Students describe service-learning programs as:
A special Blessing of Travelers took place in Bukowski Chapel at Mass on March 3, to send forth spring service-learning groups. For additional information, go to aquinas.edu/servicelearning.
This school year the Center for Diversity & Inclusion has continued to provide opportunities for students to engage cultural and social justice issues. In November we invited environmental activist Winona LaDuke to serve as the keynote speaker for our annual Native American Heritage Celebration. LaDuke packed the Wege Ballroom with her presentation, "Food Sovereignty: Environmental Justice in Native America." Co-sponsors for this event included the Jane Hibbard Idema Women's Studies Center, Center for Sustainability, Grand River Bands of Ottawa Indians, and the West Michigan Environmental Action Council.
As part of AQ's Black History Month recognition, V.I.B.E. hosted their annual Soul Food Sunday on February 16. This year's theme was 'Family, Faith and Food' and included the IMANI Singers of Grand Rapids, local pastor Julian
Newman, and members from the AQ Jazz Band. The meal was provided by Xavier Jaramillo '00, owner of Xav's Catering. Xavier is an AQ alumnus and an active member of the AQ Black Alumni Society.
Looking ahead - This March we will celebrate the life and legacy of labor leader and civil rights activist César Chávez. Students, faculty, and staff are invited to join us at the Grand Rapids César E. Chávez Social Justice March and Community Gathering on March 20. Aquinas will host its own "César Chávez Commemorative Lecture" on March 25 featuring Dr. José Leyba. In addition, we will be coordinating a campus-wide donation drive to support local migrant families.
To learn more about the Center for Diversity & Inclusion, or for more details regarding upcoming events, please visit our website.
Aquinas College is announcing the addition of women's ice hockey to its intercollegiate athletic opportunities beginning in the 2015-16 school year.
The women's program will become a member of the American Collegiate Hockey Association (ACHA) Division I sanctioned programs. Aquinas will join the highly competitive Central Collegiate Women's Hockey Association (CCWHA) which boasts well known schools such as Michigan State University, University of Michigan, Central Michigan University, Northern Michigan University and local members Grand Valley State and Davenport. >Read More
Alksnis Athletics & Recreation Building
The Alksnis Athletics & Recreation Building will provide nearly 70,000 square feet of new space for the Aquinas College community. It will offer a great venue for our students to play, practice and compete. The new facility will not only offer a 200 meter track with all of the amenities for track and field events, but also additional wooden floor courts for basketball, volleyball, cheerleading and dance. Practice areas for baseball, softball, soccer, lacrosse, golf and intramurals will also be available. An extensive curtaining system will allow for multiple uses simultaneously. >Follow the Construction Progress
Apartment E
On Wednesday, November 20, Aquinas College held the second groundbreaking of Fall 2013, this time to kick off construction of a new
residence facility for students. Due to an increased demand by upperclass students to live on campus, the Aquinas College Board of Trustees approved the expansion of campus housing. Construction on the new apartment building will begin in early December and will be completed in time for next academic year (Fall 2014). Currently being referred to as Apartment E, this new building will be modeled after AQ's most popular and LEED certified living space, Apartment D, and will overlook the College's athletic field. Apartment E will be approximately 29,176 square feet and will accommodate 64 residents who are at upperclass status. >Follow the Construction Progress
Many students find summer to be an excellent time to learn! There are different motivations for taking a class in the summer. Some students want to get ahead in their credits, others want to tackle a particularly tough course independent of a full schedule, and others choose to learn on-line from a laptop in varied environments including a backyard deck.
This summer Aquinas is offering 78 courses, including 21 available online. Thirteen of these online courses fulfill our general education requirements, and summer tuition for online courses has been reduced by $100/credit hour. Summer Session courses begin May 19, and are available in 4, 8, and 12 week options.
Encourage your son or daughter to explore our class schedule for summer by logging on to MyAQ, or check out aquinas.edu/online. Early Registration for summer classes is open March 10-21.
The 2014 Students in Action Awards Ceremony will be held on
Friday, April 4, at 6 p.m. in the Sturrus Sports & Fitness Center.
Aquinas College prides itself as an institution of highly involved and enriched students. The Students in Action Awards ceremony celebrates these accomplishments throughout multiple categories. These categories include but not limited to: 2013 Fall Dean's List recipients, Outstanding Student Nominees, Students of the Month, Resident Assistants, and Orientation Leaders.
Throughout the evening, students are recognized for their academic and their overall impact on-campus. Please plan to come and celebrate with us on our students' successes; a light social and time for photos will immediately follow the ceremony. R.S.V.P's will be made available to the students after they return from Spring Break. Please encourage the students to make the appropriate accommodations. If you have any questions, please contact the Campus Life office at email@example.com. Go Saints!

Research Forum Autumn Term 2012
Caroline Villers Research Fellows Double LEcture
Dr Jim Harris and Dr Pia Gottschaller
Thursday, 25 October 2012
18.00 - 19.30, Kenneth Clark Lecture Theatre
Ticket/entry details: Open to all, free admission
Organised by: Professor Aviva Burnstock
Lecture I: 'What are we that you should care for us?' Painting and Repainting Monuments of the English Reformation
Speaker(s): Dr Jim Harris (Caroline Villers Research Fellow 2011-12, The Courtauld Institute of Art)
Memorial effigy of Sir James Deane (1608), St Olave Hart Street, London. Photo © Jim Harris, by permission of St Olave Hart Street
During his tenure as 2011-12 Caroline Villers Research Fellow, Jim Harris has investigated two groups of late sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century tomb monuments in London churches, at St Margaret's Westminster and St Olave Hart Street. By examining the evidence preserved in the paint layers of their polychrome surfaces, the project has sought to understand something of the fate of these remarkable sculptures over the past four centuries and the ways in which their changing appearance has reflected shifting attitudes to colour in church interiors and to the objects that comprise the English liturgical environment. This lecture will discuss the results of these technical examinations and consider the variety of ways in which their subjects have been cared for, or not cared for, during the course of their long lives.
Jim Harris took his BA, MA and PhD at The Courtauld Institute of Art where he was the Andrew W Mellon Foundation/Research Forum Postdoctoral Fellow for 2011 and Caroline Villers Research Fellow for 2011-12. He was recently appointed Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Teaching Curator at the Ashmolean Museum of Art and Archaeology in the University of Oxford, where he is continuing with research into English polychrome sculpture.
Lecture II: Drawing the Line: Straight Edges in Modern Abstract Art
Speaker(s): Dr Pia Gottschaller (Caroline Villers Research Fellow 2012-13, The Courtauld Institute of Art)
Photo courtesy reedstudio, New York
The conscious limiting of modern abstract painters to the use of colour, surface texture and mostly geometric forms in their art making meant that each of these individual compositional elements received unprecedented amounts of attention, by both the creator and observer. With the introduction of pressure-sensitive tape in Europe and the US in the late 1930s, artists were suddenly able to paint perfectly straight lines and edges of forms. Some artists, however, preferred to continue to painstakingly paint their lines free-hand, often with the argument that taped edges appear 'anti-human'.
This lecture will present the project's three main research topics: how do these technical choices relate to the meaning of selected artists' work, among them Piet Mondrian, Ben Nicholson, Barnett Newman, Mark Rothko, John McLaughlin and Bridget Riley? What implications does the use or refusal of tape have for their actual artistic process? And how or to which degree do we, from a neuroesthetic point of view, perceive these very subtle differences?
Pia Gottschaller took a BA in art history from Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in Munich and trained at The Courtauld Institute of Art to become a painting conservator (Dip 1997), then worked at the Harvard University Art Museums, Cambridge (1997-1998), and at the Menil Collection, Houston, where she participated in the conservation of the Rothko Chapel murals (1998-2000). She received her Ph.D. in 2003 from Technische Universität Munich for a thesis on the painting technique of Blinky Palermo. 2003-2005 Associate Conservator at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. 2005-2007 Postdoc Research Fellow at Bibliotheca Hertziana, Rome. 2009-2010 Assistant Fine Arts Director at German Academy Villa Massimo, Rome. Since 2011 freelance curator and author with a focus on postwar European and American art.

Holloway Head, Birmingham
This image taken in 1870 shows a row of old cottages on the Holloway Head, Ladywood shortly before they were demolished.
The area where once this row of buildings stood is little changed even today. The buildings shown above were positioned between Windmill Street and Florence Street on Holloway Head, a short distance from the present twin tower blocks and the Radisson Hotel.
The layout of the streets in this area have changed little since the photograph was taken. In 1870 there was little more in the area than can be seen in the photograph. Behind the cottages was open land which was farmed during the 18th and 19th centuries and a windmill, known as Chapman's Mill, after Samuel Chapman who built it in the 1740s, it lent itself to the name of the nearby Windmill Street.
Ernest Street was cut through the middle of this row of buildings shortly after their demolition, as was Florence Street which is just off the right hand edge of the image. The current petrol station is built on the site of the old Dog and Duck Inn (the building with the canopy on the left). In 1869 this row of buildings consisted of The Dog and Duck (no.89), a Baker (no.86-7), a Butcher (no.84-5), a Greengrocer (no.82), a General Basket Maker (no.80) and the Bowling Green Inn next door at number 79 (nearest the camera).
The area changed from mainly rural and became industrial in nature, many small factories sprung up in the 1870s and 1880s, producing allsorts from lamps and bonnets, metal works, a brass foundry and sewing machine parts.

The Gators led all the way, racking up a 21-0 lead before the Crusaders were able to score their lone touchdown midway through the second quarter. Port responded with 27 unanswered points in the second half to come away with the victory.
The Ridgway Area School District's Students of the Month were honored during Tuesday night's school board meeting.

Solar cells that are more than 100% efficient
If a photon enters a solar cell and produces multiple excitons, then the overall quantum efficiency achievable can be more than 100%. Arthur Nozik of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colorado, and colleagues have made this mechanism work in lead-selenide quantum-dot photocells, obtaining on average 1.14 electrons for each incident photon. The work could lead to more efficient methods to harnessing solar power.

Hi everyone..
This was sent to me via email.
I would really like to share these words of wisdom with all of you
hugssss ....Lu
One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.
He said, "My son, the battle is between 2 "wolves" inside us all.
One is Evil.
It is anger, envy, jealousy,sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, Addictions, All Forms of Abuse and ego.
The other is Good.
It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, Loyalty ,Respect,Compassion,Honorable and faith."
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather:
"Which wolf wins?"
The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."
Here is the same story, but it is called "Grandfather Tells" which is also known as "The Wolves Within"
An old Grandfather said to his grandson, who came to him with anger at a friend who had done him an injustice, "Let me tell you a story.
I too, at times, have felt a great hate for those that have taken so much, with no sorrow for what they do.
But hate wears you down, and does not hurt your enemy.
It is like taking poison and wishing your enemy would die. I have struggled with these feelings many times.
" He continued, "It is as if there are two wolves inside me.
One is good and does no harm.
He lives in harmony with all around him, and does not take offense when no offense was intended.
He will only fight when it is right to do so, and in the right way.
But the other wolf, ah! He is full of anger.
The littlest thing will set him into a fit of temper.
He fights everyone, all the time, for no reason.
He cannot think because his anger and hate are so great.
It is helpless anger,for his anger will change nothing.
Sometimes, it is hard to live with these two wolves inside me, for both of them try to dominate my spirit."
The boy looked intently into his Grandfather's eyes and asked, "Which one wins, Grandfather?"
The Grandfather smiled and quietly said, "The one I feed."
If you care to read the original story of the above which is called The 2 woves story, please do.

Taronga welcomes and encourages support from trusts, family and corporate foundations and Private Ancillary Funds.
Casestudy : Amphibian conservation work
The Wilson HTM Foundation supported the Taronga Conservation Society Australia's frog breeding and research programs at Taronga Zoo. In 2007 and 2008 the program supported the zoo breeding and release of two endangered frog species: the Booroolong and the Corroboree Frog. In 2009, support was directed to a ground-breaking inoculation program to protect frogs against the devastating global Chytrid Fungus. These three years of support have directly impacted on the chances of survival of these endangered native amphibians, and we are thankful for Wilson HTM Foundation's financial support as well as the wonderful interest and engagement of Wilson HTM staff with Taronga. It was a hugely successful three year partnership.

Projects Seeking Support
The Burbangana & Walanmarra Zoo Awareness Program
The Burbangana and Walanmarra Zoo Awareness Programs are unique mentoring and engagement programs for severely disadvantaged at risk Indigenous youth. The programs provide participants with the opportunity to engage in activities in the Zoos, with a focus on education in cultural awareness and identity development.
These experiences and activities instil self-confidence and assist and encourage the participants in their formal education pathways and improve their social skills in the community. Running successfully for the past five years, the programs' have made a life changing difference to more than 30 at risk young people in NSW.
The programs' desperately need to commence a new phase of development, planning and growth to maximise reach and to continue to improve the quality of life for youth at risk.
Without enhancement there is limitation and restriction for growth and development, implicating further engagement and support that have direct consequences for maximising positive results and opportunities for disadvantaged at risk Indigenous youth.
These programs are ground-breaking in their approach. Currently there is no similar model operating utilising native animals and Indigenous culture with at risk youth in Australia.

CONTACT: Steve Roth, Equality California
PHONE: 323-936-1831 EMAIL: firstname.lastname@example.com
(Sacramento) Equality California announced that it will honor Dr. Swati Rao with the State Farm Good Neighbor Award at its 2014 Sacramento Equality Awards on Monday, March 10.
Dr. Rao is a resident physician at the University of California, Davis Medical Center in Sacramento. Dr. Rao teaches medical students how to provide culturally sensitive care to transgender patients in a hormone clinic run by the Gender Health Center and UC Davis that serves Sacramento's transgender community. She also lectures and facilitates workshops with medical students on issues of diversity, discrimination and health care disparities affecting LGBT people, women and minorities. Dr. Rao has also served on the LGBT Curriculum Committee for medical student education, in which she worked with other residents and faculty to incorporate LGBT issues in the medical student curriculum, and the Diversity Advisory Committee for the UC Davis Psychiatry Department, in which she participated in expanding the psychiatry resident curriculum to include issues of gender, sexuality and class in addition to ethnic identity.
"Dr. Swati Rao embodies the true meaning of a good neighbor," said John O'Connor, executive director of Equality California. "In order to make an impact and encourage lasting change, we must 'teach the teachers,' educate future leaders in our community and update our institutions — and this is exactly what Swati does."
Dr. Rao was chosen from a pool of outstanding candidates nominated by members of the public. During this year's Sacramento Equality Awards, Rao will receive the award alongside other honorees, including Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom.
"Equality California is very proud to honor Swati with the State Farm Good Neighbor award for her service and inspirational advocacy on behalf of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people," said O'Connor.
Each year, Equality California recognizes individuals and organizations that have made an impact on the movement to secure full and lasting equality for LGBT people at its annual Equality Awards — a series of formal galas and cocktail events held in San Francisco, San Diego, Palm Springs, Los Angeles and Sacramento. Past honorees have included Adam Lambert, Dolores Huerta, Arianna Huffington, Attorney General Kamala Harris and California Governor Jerry Brown.
The 2014 Equality Awards are presented by AT&T and sponsored by State Farm Insurance and Southwest Airlines. For more information about the Equality Awards, visit www.eqcaawards.org/sacramento. For tickets or sponsorship information, contact Jack Lorenz at firstname.lastname@example.com or by calling 310.266.0502.
Equality California (EQCA) is the largest statewide lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender advocacy organization in California. For more than a decade, Equality California has strategically moved California from a state with extremely limited legal protections for LGBT individuals to a state with some of the most comprehensive protections in the nation. Equality California has partnered with legislators to successfully pass 96 pieces of pro-equality legislation and continues to advance equality through legislative advocacy, electoral work, public education and community empowerment. www.eqca.org

Yay Or Nay: Sarah Jessica Parker's Mole Removal
Earlier this week, actress Sarah Jessica Parker 'fessed up to David Letterman on the Late Night Show that she regrets having her "signature" mole removed.
While moles do add character to a face, I don't think it's that big of a deal in SJP's case. But if Cindy Crawford would have hers removed, I would definitely object.
Before and After
So what do you ladies think? Would you ever have your beauty mark removed?
I actually have a noticeable mole on me that i absolutely hate! But I would never remove it – it's a part of who I am regardless of how I feel about it. I wish Sarah Jessica Parker would've kept it! It was character! I wish she was more comfortable with it instead of removing it! Just my opinion, though.
Since it was flesh colored I don't think it was that big of a difference. Although I am wondering why she did it.
mole or no mole, it doesn't help her decision making when choosing movie roles – blech.
2nd Aleksis! That's why I didn't think it mattered much. She didn't say why she did it though. She just said she didn't really care for it.
If she wanted to, then why not?
I don't think it is a big deal at all since I don't really consider the mole a signature look for her. I never really noticed it there since it is flesh coloured and I never even noticed that she removed it either. I do think she looks better without it.
I have to say – SJP is just the same to me mole or no mole. I definitely don't think that it was her "signature"…(Hello, SHOES??) I did find a crazy & gross post about mole removal – DO NOT follow these steps under ANY circumstances! http://tictacdo.com/ttd/Remove-Moles-Yourself-Safely -This is for comic relief only!
I have a mole on the upper bridge of my nose. People say it's attractive. For now, I think it's fine, but I'll have it removed if it starts getting big and icky.
I agree with what you say. Cindy's mole is like her trademark. SJP's one doesn't really affect her character that much.
Let's get over this so called Mole-Gate. She's still an icon of fashion and grace – mole or no mole!
Her mole made her look 'witchy.'
I think she looks better without it. She is unusually attractive as it is, with character.
Cindi is a beauty so the mole especially near her great lips, is intriguing.
No, no no!! The mole is HER character.
The mole wasn't beautiful, and as she ages she is looking more witch like so the mole gone is actually a good thing. Plus no offense but she needs to gain some weight gaunt is NOT BEAUTIFUL
Better without it! Moles are creepy and gross!
