16 U.S. Code § 803 - Conditions of license generally
All licenses issued under this subchapter shall be on the following conditions:
(a) Modification of plans; factors considered to secure adaptability of project; recommendations for proposed terms and conditions
(1) That the project adopted, including the maps, plans, and specifications, shall be such as in the judgment of the Commission will be best adapted to a comprehensive plan for improving or developing a waterway or waterways for the use or benefit of interstate or foreign commerce, for the improvement and utilization of water-power development, for the adequate protection, mitigation, and enhancement of fish and wildlife (including related spawning grounds and habitat), and for other beneficial public uses, including irrigation, flood control, water supply, and recreational and other purposes referred to in section 797 (e) of this title [1] if necessary in order to secure such plan the Commission shall have authority to require the modification of any project and of the plans and specifications of the project works before approval.
(2) In order to ensure that the project adopted will be best adapted to the comprehensive plan described in paragraph (1), the Commission shall consider each of the following:
(A) The extent to which the project is consistent with a comprehensive plan (where one exists) for improving, developing, or conserving a waterway or waterways affected by the project that is prepared by—
(B) The recommendations of Federal and State agencies exercising administration over flood control, navigation, irrigation, recreation, cultural and other relevant resources of the State in which the project is located, and the recommendations (including fish and wildlife recommendations) of Indian tribes affected by the project.
(C) In the case of a State or municipal applicant, or an applicant which is primarily engaged in the generation or sale of electric power (other than electric power solely from cogeneration facilities or small power production facilities), the electricity consumption efficiency improvement program of the applicant, including its plans, performance and capabilities for encouraging or assisting its customers to conserve electricity cost-effectively, taking into account the published policies, restrictions, and requirements of relevant State regulatory authorities applicable to such applicant.
(b) Alterations in project works
That except when emergency shall require for the protection of navigation, life, health, or property, no substantial alteration or addition not in conformity with the approved plans shall be made to any dam or other project works constructed hereunder of an installed capacity in excess of two thousand horsepower without the prior approval of the Commission; and any emergency alteration or addition so made shall thereafter be subject to such modification and change as the Commission may direct.
(c) Maintenance and repair of project works; liability of licensee for damages
That the licensee shall maintain the project works in a condition of repair adequate for the purposes of navigation and for the efficient operation of said works in the development and transmission of power, shall make all necessary renewals and replacements, shall establish and maintain adequate depreciation reserves for such purposes, shall so maintain, and operate said works as not to impair navigation, and shall conform to such rules and regulations as the Commission may from time to time prescribe for the protection of life, health, and property. Each licensee hereunder shall be liable for all damages occasioned to the property of others by the construction, maintenance, or operation of the project works or of the works appurtenant or accessory thereto, constructed under the license and in no event shall the United States be liable therefor.
(d) Amortization reserves
That after the first twenty years of operation, out of surplus earned thereafter, if any, accumulated in excess of a specified reasonable rate of return upon the net investment of a licensee in any project or projects under license, the licensee shall establish and maintain amortization reserves, which reserves shall, in the discretion of the Commission, be held until the termination of the license or be applied from time to time in reduction of the net investment. Such specified rate of return and the proportion of such surplus earnings to be paid into and held in such reserves shall be set forth in the license. For any new license issued under section 808 of this title, the amortization reserves under this subsection shall be maintained on and after the effective date of such new license.
(e) Annual charges payable by licensees; maximum rates; application; review and report to Congress
(1) That the licensee shall pay to the United States reasonable annual charges in an amount to be fixed by the Commission for the purpose of reimbursing the United States for the costs of the administration of this subchapter, including any reasonable and necessary costs incurred by Federal and State fish and wildlife agencies and other natural and cultural resource agencies in connection with studies or other reviews carried out by such agencies for purposes of administering their responsibilities under this subchapter; for recompensing it for the use, occupancy, and enjoyment of its lands or other property; and for the expropriation to the Government of excessive profits until the respective States shall make provision for preventing excessive profits or for the expropriation thereof to themselves, or until the period of amortization as herein provided is reached, and in fixing such charges the Commission shall seek to avoid increasing the price to the consumers of power by such charges, and any such charges may be adjusted from time to time by the Commission as conditions may require: Provided, That, subject to annual appropriations Acts, the portion of such annual charges imposed by the Commission under this subsection to cover the reasonable and necessary costs of such agencies shall be available to such agencies (in addition to other funds appropriated for such purposes) solely for carrying out such studies and reviews and shall remain available until expended: Provided, That when licenses are issued involving the use of Government dams or other structures owned by the United States or tribal lands embraced within Indian reservations the Commission shall, subject to the approval of the Secretary of the Interior in the case of such dams or structures in reclamation projects and, in the case of such tribal lands, subject to the approval of the Indian tribe having jurisdiction of such lands as provided in section 476 of title 25, fix a reasonable annual charge for the use thereof, and such charges may with like approval be readjusted by the Commission at the end of twenty years after the project is available for service and at periods of not less than ten years thereafter upon notice and opportunity for hearing: Provided further, That licenses for the development, transmission, or distribution of power by States or municipalities shall be issued and enjoyed without charge to the extent such power is sold to the public without profit or is used by such State or municipality for State or municipal purposes, except that as to projects constructed or to be constructed by States or municipalities primarily designed to provide or improve navigation, licenses therefor shall be issued without charge; and that licenses for the development, transmission, or distribution of power for domestic, mining, or other beneficial use in projects of not more than two thousand horsepower installed capacity may be issued without charge, except on tribal lands within Indian reservations; but in no case shall a license be issued free of charge for the development and utilization of power created by any Government dam and that the amount charged therefor in any license shall be such as determined by the Commission: Provided however, That no charge shall be assessed for the use of any Government dam or structure by any licensee if, before January 1, 1985, the Secretary of the Interior has entered into a contract with such licensee that meets each of the following requirements:
(A) The contract covers one or more projects for which a license was issued by the Commission before January 1, 1985.
(B) The contract contains provisions specifically providing each of the following:
(i) A powerplant may be built by the licensee utilizing irrigation facilities constructed by the United States.
(ii) The powerplant shall remain in the exclusive control, possession, and ownership of the licensee concerned.
(C) The contract is an amendatory, supplemental and replacement contract between the United States and:
This paragraph shall apply to any project covered by a contract referred to in this paragraph only during the term of such contract unless otherwise provided by subsequent Act of Congress. In the event an overpayment of any charge due under this section shall be made by a licensee, the Commission is authorized to allow a credit for such overpayment when charges are due for any subsequent period.
(2) In the case of licenses involving the use of Government dams or other structures owned by the United States, the charges fixed (or readjusted) by the Commission under paragraph (1) for the use of such dams or structures shall not exceed 1 mill per kilowatt-hour for the first 40 gigawatt-hours of energy a project produces in any year, 11/2 mills per kilowatt-hour for over 40 up to and including 80 gigawatt-hours in any year, and 2 mills per kilowatt-hour for any energy the project produces over 80 gigawatt-hours in any year. Except as provided in subsection (f) of this section, such charge shall be the only charge assessed by any agency of the United States for the use of such dams or structures.
(3) The provisions of paragraph (2) shall apply with respect to—
(f) Reimbursement by licensee of other licensees, etc.
That whenever any licensee hereunder is directly benefited by the construction work of another licensee, a permittee, or of the United States of a storage reservoir or other headwater improvement, the Commission shall require as a condition of the license that the licensee so benefited shall reimburse the owner of such reservoir or other improvements for such part of the annual charges for interest, maintenance, and depreciation thereon as the Commission may deem equitable. The proportion of such charges to be paid by any licensee shall be determined by the Commission. The licensees or permittees affected shall pay to the United States the cost of making such determination as fixed by the Commission.
Whenever such reservoir or other improvement is constructed by the United States the Commission shall assess similar charges against any licensee directly benefited thereby, and any amount so assessed shall be paid into the Treasury of the United States, to be reserved and appropriated as a part of the special fund for headwater improvements as provided in section 810 of this title.
Whenever any power project not under license is benefited by the construction work of a licensee or permittee, the United States or any agency thereof, the Commission, after notice to the owner or owners of such unlicensed project, shall determine and fix a reasonable and equitable annual charge to be paid to the licensee or permittee on account of such benefits, or to the United States if it be the owner of such headwater improvement.
(g) Conditions in discretion of commission
Such other conditions not inconsistent with the provisions of this chapter as the commission may require.
(h) Monopolistic combinations; prevention or minimization of anticompetitive conduct; action by Commission regarding license and operation and maintenance of project
(1) Combinations, agreements, arrangements, or understandings, express or implied, to limit the output of electrical energy, to restrain trade, or to fix, maintain, or increase prices for electrical energy or service are hereby prohibited.
(2) That conduct under the license that:
(B) is not otherwise justified by the public interest considering regulatory policies expressed in other applicable law (including but not limited to those contained in subchapter II of this chapter) shall be prevented or adequately minimized by means of conditions included in the license prior to its issuance. In the event it is impossible to prevent or adequately minimize the contravention, the Commission shall refuse to issue any license to the applicant for the project and, in the case of an existing project, shall take appropriate action to provide thereafter for the operation and maintenance of the affected project and for the issuing of a new license in accordance with section 808 of this title.
(i) Waiver of conditions
In issuing licenses for a minor part only of a complete project, or for a complete project of not more than two thousand horsepower installed capacity, the Commission may in its discretion waive such conditions, provisions, and requirements of this subchapter, except the license period of fifty years, as it may deem to be to the public interest to waive under the circumstances: Provided, That the provisions hereof shall not apply to annual charges for use of lands within Indian reservations.
(j) Fish and wildlife protection, mitigation and enhancement; consideration of recommendations; findings
(1) That in order to adequately and equitably protect, mitigate damages to, and enhance, fish and wildlife (including related spawning grounds and habitat) affected by the development, operation, and management of the project, each license issued under this subchapter shall include conditions for such protection, mitigation, and enhancement. Subject to paragraph (2), such conditions shall be based on recommendations received pursuant to the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.) from the National Marine Fisheries Service, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, and State fish and wildlife agencies.
(2) Whenever the Commission believes that any recommendation referred to in paragraph (1) may be inconsistent with the purposes and requirements of this subchapter or other applicable law, the Commission and the agencies referred to in paragraph (1) shall attempt to resolve any such inconsistency, giving due weight to the recommendations, expertise, and statutory responsibilities of such agencies. If, after such attempt, the Commission does not adopt in whole or in part a recommendation of any such agency, the Commission shall publish each of the following findings (together with a statement of the basis for each of the findings):
(A) A finding that adoption of such recommendation is inconsistent with the purposes and requirements of this subchapter or with other applicable provisions of law.
(B) A finding that the conditions selected by the Commission comply with the requirements of paragraph (1).
Subsection (i) of this section shall not apply to the conditions required under this subsection.

yeeehaa!!! ;D
*does dance of joy*
SuSE 8.0 will be shipping April 22.According to the press release I read it'll have KDE 3, xFree86 4.2, and the 2.4.18 Kernel.The Professional Edition will also have Apache 1.3.23 and Samba 2.2.3a.Price,$79.95 for Pro and $49.95 for personal.The Professional Update is $49.95.Maybe a tad pricey for a Linux Distro but it shall not stop me from buying it.Check out the SuSE site for me details. ;D
yeeehaa!!! ;D
*does dance of joy*
*downloads debian*
LOL. I actually might give SUSE 8.0 a look and install it on a spare partition.Originally Posted by alastair
Jim H
if i had the cash and could find somewhere in NZ that sold boxes of linux then i would try a few others out as well.
if any one knows of distrubtors in the waikato reigon?? (not auckland)
Hey guys, I saw on ZDNet UK about Suse charging some kind of "license fee" for 8.0. There were not any details on what this might be. Has anyone seen more information on this?
Jim H
JimH, If Suse were to add license fees, there is no way I would even try it.
I will have o check that out.
I was just curious when I saw it whether it was going to be a per seat license fee like Caldera has gone too. I definitely will not be trying it if this is the case.
Jim H
If Linux Distos start going to license fees, whether they be per seat or per server based, the distro companies better be prepared to take a few steps back.
If IT managers have to deal with the licensing issues and associated hassles, they will just stick with the current installed base that already has these problems. Why learn how to deal with new licensing issues?
This would definately be a step back for Linux in the business sector.
The techies on the other hand, will just download a free distro.
Linux License Fees = Bankrupt

I was dismantling an old art project today (http://db.etree.org/burnignman). I was salvaging all the blacklights and rolling the many feet of speaker wire into a ball when I had a revelation directly from Him. I mentioned to my girl "It looks like the flying spaghetti monster". Of course it didn't, as the balls were not quickly distingushable, but I took this as a sign.
Before this revelation I had no idea what to do with all the speaker and copper wire. But, thanks to His inspiration and musenessity, behold, the copper FSM!

CANTON - Senior center fielder Carter Franz went four for five with two doubles, a triple and a home run as part of a 17-hit St. Lawrence University offensive outburst and freshman Frank Grady earned his first collegiate pitching victory as the Saints routed SUNY Plattsburgh 15-4 in a non-league matchup at Tom Fay Field Wednesday afternoon improving to 13-8 on the season.
Franz and shortstop Chris Fernandez drove in three runs each and outfielder Brian Magoveny hit a two run homer run as the Saints scored nine runs against two different Plattsburgh pitchers in the first two innings and were never threatened. Grady pitched four scoreless innings before giving up two runs in the top of the fifth. He worked out of that inning without further damage and relievers Michael DellOlio, Eric McGuire and Andrew Weitzel kept the Saints in front the rest of the way.
The Saints jumped on Plattsburgh starter Colin Crawford in the bottom of the first as Brian Palermo and Magoveny had back to back singles and Franz doubled to right center, scoring Palermo. Back-to-back sacrifice flies by Khifer OConnor and Jeff Kott plated two more runs and the Saints made it 4-0 when Kevin Prindle singled and scored on Paul Piatellis double.
It went to 9-0 in the bottom of the second as Palermo was hit by a pitch with one out and Magovney hit a towering homer over the left field fence. Franz then tripled to right center and scored on a passed ball, OConnor walked, moved to third on Kotts single and scored on Prindles double and Kott came around to score when Fernandez singled up the middle.
SLU picked up two more runs off Shunsuke Sigimoto in the bottom of the fourth when Kott doubled, Piatelli walked and after a wild pitch, Fernandez delivered a two-run single to center.
Plattsburgh, now 9-17, finally broke the scoring ice against Grady, who walked none and struck out one, scoring two runs on doubled by J.D. Springer and Shane Houppert and a single by Brian Latulipe.
The Saints got one run back in the bottom of the fifth as Franz doubled, moved to third on a double play ball and scored when Mark Syron singled to right. Plattsburgh scored a run in the top of the seventh off DellOlio as Springer singled and Houppert doubled him home and the Cardinals made it 12-4 in the top of the eighth as Ben Weightman hit a two-out run-scoring double against McGuire. Weitzel came on to get the final out and shut Plattsburgh down the rest of the way.
The Saints tacked on three more runs, all unearned, in the bottom of the eighth. Palermo singled with two out, went to second on a wild pitch and reached when Chris Conlon reached on an error. Franz then lined a two-run homer over the right field fence, his fourth of the season.
SLU will return to Liberty League play Saturday and Sunday with doubleheaders at Rensselaer.
The St. Lawrence University softball team earned a 6-3 non-conference victory on the road over crosstown rival SUNY Canton (10-17) on Wednesday.
The Saints move to 12-11 on the season and will travel to Saratoga Springs on Saturday for their final pair of regular-season Liberty League games against Skidmore College.
St. Lawrence pitcher Kyle Plimpton earned the win on the mound as she allowed three runs on four hits while striking out seven to improve to 6-6 on the season.
Offensively, Caroline Kieltyka was 2-for-3 with three RBIs and a run scored, while Chelsea Cavellier was 3-for-4 with two runs scored. Natasha Bell and Aisha OConnor added two hits and a run apiece. Marissa Boyer added an RBI double for the Saints.
SUNY Canton struck first in the first inning as Nicole Mulieri led off with a double and would score on Tina DeLucas sacrifice fly to center field. St. Lawrence responded in the second when Cavellier singled to left field and was hit home by Kieltykas RBI single.
St. Lawrence strung together three hits from OConnor, Bell and Cavellier in the third inning, and OConnor took advantage of a outfielding miscue to score from third base to put her team up 2-1.
The Saints erupted for four more runs in the sixth inning on four hits. Bell led off with a bunt single and then moved to third base on Cavelliers hit.
Elizabeth McGinley then reached first on a fielders choice, and after SUNY Canton tried to get Bell in a run down at third, the Roos threw the ball away, allowing Bell to score. Kieltyka followed with a two-run double to right center field to bring home McGinley and Cavellier. Boyer followed with an RBI- double to center field to score Kieltyka and push the Saints ahead 6-1.
The Roos cut into the Saints lead on a two-run homerun from Hallie Fenti that bounced off the fence in left centerfield, but Plimpton forced SUNY Cantons next batter to ground out to first to end the game.
The SUNY Canton baseball team swept Cazenovia College on Wednesday winning 5-1 and 5-2 in Canton.
SUNY Canton (6-16) received two solid pitching performances from sophomore Travis Legacy (Malone, N.Y.) in game one and junior Alex LaFountain (Keesville, N.Y.) in the nightcap. Each hurler tossed a complete game, as Legacy won his third game striking out two batters in seven innings while holding the Wildcats to just four singles, and LaFountain fanned nine batters in a two-hit performance over seven innings to earn his third win as well.
In the opening game, the Roos jumped out on the Wildcats early, building a 3-0 lead after two innings. In the first inning, freshman Eddy Morel (Lake Worth, Fla.) ripped a double down the left field line, advanced to second on a balk, and scored on an RBI-groundout by freshman Kyle Sacks (Clifton Park, N.Y.). In the second, Sacks lined a single that scored freshman Braden Giffen (Lake Worth, Fla.), who had hit a double, and senior Michael Zelyez (Brasher Falls, N.Y.), who was hit by a pitch.
The Roos scored two more runs in the bottom half of the fourth inning, when Giffen, who got on base with a single to left field, scored after senior Gerardo Torres (Theresa, N.Y.) reached on a fielders choice. Zelyez, who drew walk to get on safely, came around to score his second run when junior Jordan Hunneyman (Redwood, N.Y.) laced an RBI-single to left field.
The Wildcats got one run back in the top of the sixth inning on an RBI-single from Pat Shepardson.
Casey MacClaren took the loss on the mound allowing five runs on seven hits and five walks with two strikeouts in six innings.
In the nightcap, the Roos pounded out six hits, including three doubles to earn the sweep. They scored two runs in the first, two more in the second and their final run in the bottom of the sixth. In the first, freshman Kevin Hill (Deerfield Beach, Fla.) stroked an RBI-single and senior Tom Darling (Oswego, N.Y.) added a run-scoring double to center field. In the second, Zelyez drew a walk, stole second and third, and scored on single from Morel, who then came home on a sacrifice fly to left field by Hunneyman. Sacks provided the Roos final run when he knocked in his fourth RBI of the day with a single to center field that plated Morel, who had had smacked his second double of the afternoon.
Morel finished 2-for-4 with two runs. Hill also had two hits and Giffen drew a pair of walks.
Dan Hodne doubled for Cazenovia, who sent five pitches to the mound in the second game.
The Roos return to action this weekend hosting Fisher College in a pair of doubleheaders on Saturday and Sunday starting at 12 p.m. each day.

|Red Baldy via Silver Glance Lake
Date Climbed: Jul 25, 2009
|Couldn't have been a better day to hike! The overcast skies made this hike so much more pleasant. Our goal was just to hike up to Silver Glance Lake, from Silver Lake Flat Reservoir trailhead, but once there, we felt great, so we decided to go straight up the red scree and talus to the summit. It wasn't as hard as I had expected although it was easily a 45-50 degree slope right up the front face from Silver Glance. Nothing scary. Class three once we got to the red talus. We just did some route finding and basic scrambling from there to the top. The scrambling was very fun. Beautiful views of White Pine Lake, Silver Glance, Silver Lake, and Silver Lake Flat, and even Tibble Fork Reservoir at the summit. We wanted to head up to White Baldy, but storm clouds chased us off the summit to lower ground.

November 29, 2008 I got within 300 vertical feet of the summit, but high winds, grauple, and time constraints caused us to turn around.
So the next Saturday, December 6, 2008 I went back with a group from Utah Outsiders, and summited on a gorgeous clear day!

|4th time on the summit(s) of Red Baldy. Once solo, once with Brent & Lana on the Red/White/Red/White hike, on 5-14-08 with L & A, and today (June '08). Snow conditions, considering the mid-June date, were excellent; we had to don crampons from abeam lower Red Pine lake until the White Baldy summit. From there to Red Baldy we got away with mountaineering boots and careful scrambling. Great glissade off of Red Baldy. Entire route took 8+25 from White Pine TH. #5 8-5-08 with Dave, Lana & Brent.

|Went with my good friend Jackson. We started to go up one of the couloirs on the North face, and then a couple of rocks came tumbling down at a high rate of speed and made us re-think our prospects. We found a steep slope on the west shoulder that was still in the shade and climbed up to the ridge. The snow was hard and firm. The ridge was corniced in places and slightly sketchy, but not too bad. Just before the summit we saw Marauders glissading down the south side. We did not see another person all day until we reached the Red Pine trail junction. Had some great glissades and the conditions were perfect. Epic day!! (See trip report.)

I have written before how I have no desire to ever serve on subs. Not that I don't highly respect their mission and their qualification process. Folks with dolphins are some of the best trained of our operators. And this week, three female officers, LTJG Marquette Leveque, LTJG Jennifer Noonan, and LTJG Amber Cowan, formally received their submarine warfare insignia:
The Navy's first female submariners have earned their "dolphins."
In ceremonies on both coasts Wednesday, three female officers were pinned with their submarine warfare insignia, the gold chest device that confers their status as fully qualified submarine officers. After a rigorous process that consumed a year of training followed by a year at sea, their achievement signals that the silent service's glass ceiling has been shattered.
Please ignore the dude in the above pinning ceremony. He does not have the required hormone levels to make the Navy Times. Bravo Zulu to all. . .

Lesson Two: Houses 1 to 6
2nd House: establishing (Taurus house - natural ruler Venus)
We have spent a great deal of time looking at the 1st house and at the Ascendant, and we need to move on now to the 2nd house. The 2nd house is the house of physical and material substance, of incorporation, our first experience of which is our relationship to our body. The 2nd house describes what we feel about our body, whether we can trust it, whether we value it or not, and how safe and secure it feels. This will often be a reflection of the way our bodies were - or were not - valued, respected, nourished, affirmed, and protected by our primary carers. This extends to our relationship to our possessions, our personal resources, and to what we feel we are worth. This also relates to money which, in our culture, is such a powerful symbol of personal substance and worth. So in a very material sense, the 2nd house describes how we earn our money, and from a psychological point of view it describes how we value ourselves and our attitude to the money we earn.
Audience: I have Neptune in the 2nd house, and I have read that this is a terrible placement, since money just slips through your fingers, like water.
Clare: Certainly, you may not have a particularly strong sense of your own physical boundaries or limitations, but this can also be an immensely creative placement. It could indicate that you earn your money in a Neptunian profession, such as advertising, charity work, film, fashion, dance, or as an artist. Ultimately Neptune in the 2nd house tells us about your values, which may well be more idealistic and altruistic than materialistic. Unless we actually value money, it is unlikely that we will bother to accumulate it. The 2nd house tells us so much about our values and attitude to substance of all kinds. Saturn in the 2nd house, for example, can describe a psychology of poverty which remains with us all our lives, no matter how much money we have in the bank.
Audience: What does Pluto in the 2nd house mean?
Clare: Pluto is about intense control, so it can describe someone who needs to have total control over their body, as in the case of athletes or ballet dancers, for example. Pluto is the planet of crisis, repeated purging, purification and ultimate survival, and I have seen it in the charts of people who amass huge wealth and then lose it all, as if there was a repeating compulsion to radically purge any substance or matter which has accumulated in order to be stripped down before once again emerging and building again from scratch. Sometimes people with Pluto in the 2nd house have been strictly controlled or manipulated, perhaps exploited, in their early years, and the personal battle which ensues can be an obsessive need for personal control, in order to avoid being controlled by others.
Audience: I have to be in total control of my body. Every day I do hours of exercise, and I am always putting myself on strict diets and purges. I wish I could find a way not to be so extreme or obsessive, but I suppose there is no hope for me.
Clare: Well, it may be that on some level you experience your body as dark or corrupt or unacceptable in some way. In Freudian terms, the 2nd house relates to the anal stage of development, when the child seeks for the first time to have control over its body and the products of its body, and a battle of the wills develops between the child and the parent. A psychological interpretation might be that you have 'introjected' this battle, which means that you may well be treating your own body in the way it was treated when you were much younger. If this is the case, then you have choices as an adult that were not available to you when you were a child, when the balance of power was inevitably unequal. It may be possible for you to listen to your body more, and to question whether it is really necessary to keep on punishing and purging it.
3rd house: learning (Gemini house - natural ruler Mercury)
The 3rd house describes our early environment, our exploration of and interaction with our immediate surroundings, the development of thinking, learning, language and communication. This house indicates how we absorb and process information, which in turn defines what and how we perceive, and for each of us this will be different. It also describes our relationships with our brothers and sisters, our experience of early schooling and of schoolteachers and neighbours. True to its natural Gemini association, the 3rd house also describes short journeys and local travel.
Audience: I have Saturn in the 3rd house and I don't like to travel - I always try to find reasons why I don't need to go somewhere.
Clare: I wonder if there is any connection here with your journey to school when you were much younger. With Saturn in the 3rd, it may well be that this was a fearful event for you.
Audience: That's right. Now I think about it, I used to be picked up every day by the mother of two children at my school, a brother and sister, and I always felt awkward and alone because they would ignore me, or talk about things which I didn't know anything about. And the reason I was taken to school in the first place was because my mother was a single parent and had to leave for work even before I left for school, so I always felt alone and abandoned. I remember pleading with my mother to take me with her and to drop me off at school on her way to work, but she wouldn't do that because it would mean I would arrive before the school gates were opened and it would be unsafe.
Clare: That story describes very graphically what it feels like to have Saturn in the 3rd house. It can also mean that you are an only child, that you feel you have been denied brothers and sisters, or, alternatively, it could mean that you are the oldest child, with early responsibility for your younger brothers and sisters. This can be tough, because it means that you have not had an opportunity to learn how to play or spat or fight with your siblings.
Audience: In my case, it describes the fact that I was an only child, but I have always wanted brothers and sisters.
Clare: Saturn normally describes what we crave and what we feel we have been denied, so this is a good example.
Audience: I have Neptune in the 3rd house, and I never had a clue what was going on at school.
Clare: Neptune in the 3rd would indicate that you have a poetic and imaginative mind, and you may have spent your school years staring out of the classroom window and dreaming. With Neptune in the 3rd house, you are likely to absorb information like blotting paper and you probably need to feel things before they make sense to you. I suspect that you have a visual and holistic way of processing information. Logical analysis or rote learning would no doubt have been meaningless to you and you are more likely to respond to the way something is said rather than to the actual meaning of the words themselves.
4th house: belonging (Cancer house - natural ruler Moon)
The 4th and 10th houses are the parental houses, describing
the home environment we grew up in (4th house) and the family's relationship
to, or status in, the world (10th house). Generally speaking, the 4th and
10th houses tend to describe our perception of our father and mother respectively,
although to some extent that is interchangeable, since our parents play
different roles at different times in our lives, and our perception of
them can change. Nevertheless, we usually learn about the world from our
mother, who is generally the more visible parent (10th house), and we take
our name, our basic identity and our connection to the family line from
our father, who is generally the more hidden parent (4th house).
The 4th house describes our early home environment, the atmosphere we absorbed there, and the nature of our early physical and emotional container: our biological and social roots and origins. This is the watery Cancerian house, with the Moon as the natural ruler, describing the quality of the nurturing we experienced in our early lives, and how safe we feel about belonging to our family, clan or tribe. The level of acceptance, love and encouragement we receive from our family stays with us throughout our lives and describes how safe we feel on an emotional level. Our family can provide a firm and nurturing foundation upon which we can build, or, alternatively, at the other end of the spectrum, an unsafe, neglectful, critical, or leaky container, in which case we may never feel safe on a fundamental level. The primal matrix of the 4th house is eventually internalised, describing how we create our own home and family and where we come home to ourselves, which will include the sign on the cusp of the 4th house and the condition of ruling planet or planets, as well as any planets in the 4th house. In the equal house system, the IC - which is a much more personal point describing our own deepest inner foundation and root system - is not necessarily found in the 4th house. In other words, it is not necessarily tied up so closely with our parents. We will look at this in more depth next week, when we explore the angles of the chart.
Audience: I have Jupiter in the 4th house and was born into a very large extended family, with lots of uncles and aunts and cousins coming and going all the time.
Clare: That is a great example of Jupiter in the 4th. With this placement there is an inherent sense of the meaning and value of belonging to a family, which is often both very sociable and gregarious. It can sometimes mean a strongly religious background that supports family structures and values, so that the family itself is supported by a larger matrix in which it is embedded.
Audience: Well, I come from a large Italian family, so there is a strong Catholic background.
Audience: I have Saturn in the 4th house, and absolutely none of this Jupiter stuff applies to me. I remember reading that Saturn in the 4th is like 'Bleak House', which feels much more appropriate.
Clare: Yes, this is a very graphic image of Saturn in the 4th. I always think of the 4th house as being like a flowerbed. Some of us are planted in fertile soil and tenderly nurtured and watered so that we can grow tall and strong without too much difficulty. Some of us are planted too close together or too far apart, some of us are uprooted before we have had time to establish ourselves properly, and some of us are water plants or plants which grow in the air, like orchids. With Saturn in the 4th, the experience is often one of being sown in hard, dry ground from which it is difficult to draw nourishment, and in which it is hard to put down any kind of root system - we are like desert plants, having to survive on the very barest minimum of nutrients. And this eventually makes us very strong and self-sufficient.
5th house: creating (Leo house - natural ruler Sun)
The 5th house is the house of recreation - self-expression, enjoyment and pleasure. It describes what we do for fun, how we play, what makes us feel alive and glad to be alive. The 5th house describes our experience of being a child, and our attitude towards our own children. It also describes our attitude to romance, speculation and risk-taking: all those activities which make us feel as if we are at the centre of the universe, uniquely blessed, special, and favoured by the gods. The 5th house describes what we enjoy and do for fun rather than for any particular goal or result. We all have different ideas about what is fun. With Venus in the 5th house, for example, this might be love affairs, whereas with Saturn in the 5th house our pleasures are likely to be solitary and serious. With Mercury in Virgo in the 5th house we might be a stamp collector or train spotter, with Mars in Aries we might be a sportsman or woman, and with Jupiter in Pisces we might love to dance. 5th house pursuits are any activities which give us joy and make us feel really alive.
Audience: But I have Pluto in the 5th house.
Clare: That is a good example, because we have to make sense of what
this powerful god of the underworld is doing in the 5th house of creative
self-expression. The first thing we can say is that your pleasures are
likely to be intense and you may be rather obsessive about your hobbies.
I suspect that you won't really be enjoying yourself unless you are doing
something with total focus and intensity. I also suspect that you should
keep away from superficial party or board games, since Pluto is about survival
and the 5th house is about competition, so the experience of being beaten
is not trivial - it can feel like a personal threat, and you may find yourself
wanting to annihilate your opponent.
Audience: Yes, I don't seem to be able to play on a light-hearted level like most other people. If I compete, then I must win, so I have ended up not competing at all, because it is too painful and difficult.
Audience: I have nothing in the 5th house. Does that mean I am not creative or that I won't have any children?
Clare: Absolutely not. In this case you will need to look for the planet which rules the 5th house, and the story will be found there.
Audience: I have Chiron in the 5th house in Cancer, with Cancer ruling the 5th house. The Moon is in the 4th house in Gemini.
Clare: Well, there is something of the wounded child in this placement, and it may well be that you have always felt as if you were an outsider, perhaps that you didn't belong to your family in some way. And with the ruler of the 5th in Gemini in the 4th house, I wonder if you had two homes when you were a child.
Audience: Well, that is amazing, because I was fostered at a very young age, but I did spend periods of time with my birth family. So I never really felt that I belonged anywhere, and you are right that I have always felt like an outsider.
Clare: And this could mean that your gift is your sensitivity to children's feelings. Do you work with children at all?
Audience: Yes, I work in an adoption agency, but the part I like best about that is going into the families of people who want to adopt and checking that the children will be safe and properly cared for there. I also run an animal refuge, where I look after animals that have been abandoned.
Clare: That is a wonderful expression of your Chiron placement in the 5th house. No doubt it gives you great pleasure to be able to find homes for the children and to look after the animals.
Audience: Yes, it does.
6th house: perfecting (Virgo house - natural ruler Mercury)
Clare: Let's move on to the 6th house, which completes the personal hemisphere
and is the final house of self-development, in which we perfect ourselves
and develop particular skills that can be put into useful service. The
6th house is the workhouse, describing how and where we earn our daily
bread. It also describes how we approach, cope and deal with the demands
and details of everyday life at home and at work. The 6th house says a
great deal about our contribution and attitude to work, and the kind of
work situations we find ourselves in. It also describes our relationship
our relationship to work colleagues and to those who serve us.
The 6th house describes how we serve and service our bodies, whether we feed them properly and give them enough rest and exercise. In this context, we can see our body as our servant. How do we treat it? Is it overworked, driven to exhaustion, starved, overfed or overindulged? The 6th house can also indicate the kinds of health issues that might arise if we neglect or abuse our body. With Jupiter in the 6th house, for example, we might have a tendency to over-work or to over-indulge generally, which could eventually lead to liver problems, since Jupiter rules the liver. With Mars, which rules the head, in the 6th house, we might be prone to headaches. The 6th house also describes how we treat and care for our pets. These two things are not so far apart, because we can easily appreciate that small animals that are in our care need to be looked after, loved, and fed at regular intervals, but it is sometimes much harder to appreciate that we need to care for our own bodies in the same way, to ensure that they are properly cared for and get the right diet and exercise and enough rest, for example.
The 6th house, therefore, describes how we navigate unequal relationships: those who work for us - it is traditionally the house of servants - and those for whom we work. Let's look at some examples. What do you think would happen, for example, if you had Uranus in the 6th house and went to work for the Civil Service?
Audience: You wouldn't last long.
Audience: You wouldn't go there in the first place.
Clare: Not if you knew your chart. Uranus in the 6th will fight against being hemmed in by red tape or bureaucracy. It can't bear these kinds of restrictions and will no doubt rebel against the system. Uranus describes where in the chart we refuse to engage, so we may well refuse to submit to the demands of duty, work and service.
Audience: I have Uranus in the 6th house, and it is also the ruler of my chart.
Clare: So presumably this applies to you? It could also mean, of course,
that you work in the area of invention or science, or that you are involved
with new technology of some sort. Or that it is important for you to be
in a work environment where everyone is equal and works side by side. The
ideal solution for Uranus in the 6th house would be to go freelance, so
that you can work on your own terms, in which case you might sometimes
be free and sometimes very busy. Or you might work in a co-operative serving
a shared ideological vision. What sort of 6th house work do you do?
Audience: Well I am not working now. I also have Pluto in the 6th house.
Clare: Do you find that you are drawn into any kind of power struggles at work? It could well be that you have a well-developed nose for hidden issues or any kind of corruption which might be going on under the surface in your working environment. Alternatively, you might even work as a private detective, or in some kind of healing area where people go through intense transformation.
Audience: Well, I used to work in a small company doing office stuff, managing the library and the accounts and taking my turn at the reception desk. But I found it very hard, actually, and I did get into power struggles with a woman there, so I left. I am now unemployed, but I am thinking of training in some kind of healing work, and maybe working as an astrologer.
Clare: With Uranus and Pluto in the 6th house, I suspect you will want some kind of work that brings about powerful change and transformation, because this combination is very high voltage, so working with healing on an energetic level might suit you well. It would also give you the opportunity to work for yourself, and I suspect that you would prefer work that is non-routine. Eventually, since you belong to the Uranus-Pluto in Virgo generation, you are likely to want to radically rethink and change the way things are done, and this will no doubt apply to any area of work you find yourself doing. I doubt that office work or sitting behind a desk is right for you.

Mark C. Zona, host of Outdoor Channel networks Zonas Awesome Fishing Show and co-host of the ESPN 2 networks The Bassmasters, has seen many of the countrys best fishing spots, but none, he says, compare to those in upstate New York.
Its some of the most beautiful country, he said in a phone interview. Michigan, where Im from, is gorgeous. But I am always stunned when I come to upstate New York. Its full of breathtaking scenery.
He said his most favorite place to fish in the north country is the St. Lawrence River. Mr. Zona, 40, said has been fishing the river since he was 19. Each year, he also films a show on a different spot along the river. Last year, he filmed an episode in the Akwasasne area.
In a nutshell, the St. Lawrence River is one of the most magical places for bass, Mr. Zona said. There a number of places in the country where you can catch both small- and large-mouth bass. But there are very few places where they are both world class.
Mr. Zona said he is excited to return to the area for the Bassmaster Elite Series Tournament: St. Lawrence River Showdown which will be headquartered in Waddington from Aug. 8 to 11.
I am absolutely looking forward to come up there, he said. The nice thing about the St. Lawrence is it has gigantic schools of bass. Coming from Michigan to the north, chasing small- and large-mouth bass hits close to home. A lot of people will be surprised to find what is swimming out there.
He said the size of the fish in the St. Lawrence has improved in the last two decades, with an increase in the round goby population. He said gobies are a protein-rich food source for bass.
Not just throughout the St. Lawrence River, in all of our Great Lakes, he said. In the early 90s, the average size you needed to win events was 3 pounds. Now, if you dont have at least 4.5 to 5 pounds, you are going to sent walking. Thats a dramatic leap in 20 years.
An increase in the number of zebra mussels, which add to water clarity, has also made it possible for the bass to live up to 35 to 60 feet below the water.
The tournament will be won on fish caught between 35 and 50 feet of water, he said. I bet my house on it. Thats unusual. Many tournaments are won in 10 inches.
He said the biggest dictating factor in the competition will be weather.
If we have heavy winds out of the southwest, it will limit the anglers radius in which they can run, Mr. Zona said. If that is the case, the tournament will run very close together and close to headquarters. But this tournament will be very spread out of weather permits.
Mr. Zona said he will also be looking forward to returning to witness the impact the tournament has made on the area.
I think its awesome to show the rest of the country what the St. Lawrence has to offer, he said. Its about time it gets the notoriety that it so deserves. The impact will be astonishing. These tournaments help bring in outdoorsman. Those are the people you want to come to your town because they will appreciate what the land has to offer.

(NEWS CENTER) -- Advocates for youth suicide prevention are praising a unanimous vote by the legislature Thursday. Over the next two years, every person who works at a school must receive some training on youth suicide prevention. And at least two people at the school must have in-depth training. Governor LePage signed the bill as soon as it reached his desk.
It was the brainchild of two Maine moms who know all too well what happens when the warning signs of suicide are missed.
Grace Eaton lost her son to suicide in 1997. "His friends afterwards had come up to me about it and well he said he was going to kill himself, but I didn't think he would... Educating people is so important," she said.
After her son's death, Eaton became a counselor in the Livermore school system. She knows she and others in the district have saved lives because they've been trained in suicide prevention. Eaton said, "When a parent says they're just crying out for attention, I have no hesitation saying, 'Would you rather them get their attention? Or would you rather have them take their life.'"
8 years ago, Eaton became friends with Nancy Thompson. Thompson's son, Timmy, had recently become a suicide victim.
Timmy, too, was a great kid with lots of friends, and no one knew how much he was hurting.
Thompson said, "They said, 'Timmy was my best friend. If i'd only known. If i'd known the warning signs, maybe I could have helped.'"
Both women believe education is the key to suicide prevention, and their dream to train every school staff person in the state became action when Eaton met her state representative, Paul Gilbert. A few months earlier, Rep. Gilbert had attended the wake of a young suicide victim who went to the University of Southern Maine. It was a young man he watched grow up.
"I went to his wake and it was so emotional for me, I couldn't stay there," Rep. Gilbert said. "No bill that I have worked on has meant more to me than this one."
The only challenge for the bill was its cost. The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) has been providing grant-funded suicide prevention training for Maine schools for about 10 years. 35 districts have completed it. Rep. Gilbert says it's expected to cost about $44,000 to train the other districts in the state, and this bill is an unfunded mandate. But it faced no opposition from the Maine Principal's Association or the Maine Education Association.
Thompson and Eaton were there when the bill unanimously passed both houses of the legislature. Thompson said, "Grace and I were up in the gallery. And I grabbed her hand. And I said, 'We did it! We did it!' But it wasn't just us. All the other suicide survivors who have lost loved ones, that have worked hard, NAMI Maine and Maine Suicide Prevention program, all the people who have supported us to get us to where we've gotten to today."
According to NAMI Maine, these are some of the warning signs for suicide:
-- Someone making statements or threats about suicide
-- Someone communicating intent to take their live
-- Seeking the means to act or tying up elements of their life.
-- Significant changes in behavior that include,
High anxiety or agitation
Feeling hopeless or without purpose in life
Recklessness that communicates not caring what happens.
Withdrawal from people and activities that were important
For help or even to ask what response would be appropriate, call the Maine Crisis Line at 1 (888) 568-1112. If someone is in immediate risk, has a weapon or refuses help, call 911.
The Maine Suicide Prevention Program also provides a number of resources for parents who want to learn more about youth suicide prevention. Click here to learn more.
And The Parents Trauma Resource Center offers these tips on how to answer questions teens ask about suicide.

Video: Witnesses Take Stand in Corasanti Trial
Video: Corasanti Trial Begins With Emotional Testimony
BUFFALO, NY-- Following opening statements, the Prosecution began calling their first witnesses in the trial against, Dr. James Corasanti
WEB EXTRA: Click here to see a photo gallery from court
Dr. James Corasanti is accused of hitting Alexandria Rice with his car, and then leaving her to die on Heim Road in East Amherst last July.
Dr. Corasanti is charged with vehicular manslaughter, second-degree manslaughter, leaving a deadly accident scene and tampering with physical evidence.
The Jury heard from four witnesses Thursday, including Alexandria's boyfriend, co-worker, a country club bartender, and Alix's father. She was living with him at the time of her death, and on the stand, he called her "talented, bright, and very loving."
Richard Rice broke down on the stand when he recalled the moment he got the call from Amherst Police about the accident on July 8th when Alix was riding her longboard home from work. He said, "I asked if she was OK and they wouldn't give me an answer. I asked again 'is she OK'...she said 'well...she has a pulse.'"
He broke down again when he described the way she looked on the hospital table. He said, "she was laying there, apparatus in her mouth, hair was matted. She looked little. Her back looked bruised." At that point the defense objected, the judge called the attorneys to the stand, and after a short discussion, the emotional testimony stopped.
On cross-examination, Defense Attorney Joel Daniels had Mr. Rice describe the nearly seven-mile journey Alix had to take from Bocce Pizza, where she worked, to home. He said they agreed she would get a ride home that night. He didn't know she would be taking the longboard. Daniels asked, "Do you approve of your daughter riding that long board all the way home from work?" Mr. Rice responded, "I can't answer that- she relied on it from transportation . She rode it all the time."
We also heard from a co-worker of Alix's at Bocce's Pizza on Hopkin's Road who also called himself a riding partner. He said "I learned from Alix. She had great control of her longboard."
On cross-examination defense attorney Tom Burton asked the witness "Did you see Alix smoke marijuana?" And he responded, "Not on that night. Other nights, yes."
He went on to testify, "Every couple weeks I smoked with her, usually after work."
The court also heard from Kathy Cahill, the Transit Valley Country Club bartender who served Dr. and Mrs. Corasanti at the Martini Golf Tournament the night of the crash. She's known the couple for 10 years.
She said she personally served the doctor three Captain Morgan & Diet Pepsi's and a B&B Stinger cocktail, and brought a bottle of champagne and a high end bottle of chardonnay to his table. Several other drinks went to Mrs. Corasanti and table but it's unclear whether the doctor drank them.
The prosecution claims Dr. corasanti had a blood alcohol level of .10 five hours after the crash.
Four witnesses were called in about 3 hours today. The prosecution alone has a list of 80 potential witnesses they could call. It is unclear how many witnesses the defense will call, but Dr. Corasanti himself will take the stand. The trial is expected to last about a month.
Testimony continues Friday.

CHICAGO (MarketWatch) — "All In the Family" stands as the seminal television show of the 1970s because it works on three brilliant levels: as an uproarious comedy in the classic sitcom tradition, as a blistering social satire and as a first-rate character study.
The complete series, which aired on CBS CBS, -1.66% from 1971 to 1979, has recently been released in a deluxe 28-disc DVD box set by Shout Factory, which licensed the show from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment SNE, +0.68% 6758, +1.84% .
'Skyfall': James Bond too corporate?
The latest James Bond film, "Skyfall", opens in the U.S. this weekend. But product placement in the film is attracting criticism.
Priced at $180, the set includes a wide variety of extras, including a new interview with creator Norman Lear, a 40-page book with essays by USC professor Marty Kaplan and TV critic Tom Shales, two documentaries on the series, both of the show's pilot episodes, the pilots of spinoffs "Gloria" and "Archie Bunker's Place," and more.
What may be overlooked about "All In the Family" is that for all of its frank discussion of race, politics and gender issues, under creator Norman Lear it was constructed in the very best tradition of television comedy.
"In a world of so many TV shows, you've got to do something that catches the viewer's attention," said Tim Brooks, long-time media research expert and co-author of "The Complete Directory to Prime Time Network and Cable TV Shows, 1946-Present." "At the same time, if you get somebody to watch you because of that, there has to be a 'there' there. It can't just be a gimmick. This one kept the buzzworthiness up because it had episodes that made people say, wow, did you see that?"
A classic sitcom
Many of the funniest episodes are riffs on time-honored sitcom plots, as when Archie hatches a scheme that inevitably backfires, or takes a blustery, wrong-headed position on some burning issue that proves to be false. In these segments, Archie almost seems like an updated, more politically outspoken version of "The Honeymooners" Ralph Kramden. Carroll O'Connor was a great admirer of Jackie Gleason, and on a few occasions, "All In the Family" writers borrowed "Honeymooners" plots and made them over in the image of the Bunker patriarch.
One of the "Honeymooners" episodes to air in the 1956-57 season was "Forgot to Register," in which Ralph (Gleason) exhorts Norton (Art Carney) to vote in a local election by delivering a stirring speech about the Pilgrims, only to be unable to cast a ballot himself because he hasn't registered.
In the season 2 "All In The Family" episode "The Election Story" (aired Oct. 30, 1971), Archie is infuriated by a liberal candidate in a local election, Claire Packer. Mike and Gloria are strong supporters of Packer's, and they invite her to the house, resulting in an archetypal "All In the Family" discussion about women's liberation, welfare, the nuclear arms race and more. See the 10 best "All in the Family" episodes.
This is also the episode in which Archie looks at a ballot of candidates with different ethnicities. "Salvatore, Feldman, O'Reilly, Nelson — that's an Italian, a Jew, an Irishman and a regular American dere," he says, talking to Mike. "That's what I call a balanced ticket."
Archie hadn't planned to vote ("I save my vote for the biggies," he said, referring to presidential elections), but decides to make an exception here just to oppose Packer. When he gets to the polling place, where Louise Jefferson is volunteering, his name isn't on the rolls because he hasn't voted since 1960.
"The 'All In the Family' writers worked within traditional plot lines, and this was important for the audience," said Jeffrey McCall, a professor of media studies at DePauw University, "because they could recognize the structure of a sitcom. But then they would get a different perspective on some of those structures."
Social satire
Through the show's first four seasons, the character of Lionel Jefferson proved a constant source of inspiration for "All In The Family's" writers as they sought different ways to take on the issue of race.
Lionel (Mike Evans, in his first acting role) makes deliveries to the Bunker home from Jefferson Cleaners, and from the beginning he needles Archie, having fun with the old man's absurd beliefs about blacks. In the first season's "Archie Gives Blood," (Feb. 2, 1971), Archie assumes that one should only give blood to someone of the same race, so when he sees Lionel at the blood bank, he tells Mike, "I bet he's down here to do some kind of an odd job, right Lionel?"

O'Donnell Nabs Another BIG EAST Defensive Accolade
OMAHA, Neb. - Senior Kelsey O'Donnell earned her second BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Week honor on Monday, Sept. 23.
Despite playing center back, O'Donnell has made herself an offensive weapon at every turn for the Bluejays this season. She placed an exclamation on the point Friday night, tying a career-high with two goals in Creighton's 3-2 win over local rival Omaha.
O'Donnell scored Creighton's second and third goals, giving the Jays the lead each time. Just 40 seconds after the Mavericks pulled even in the first half, O'Donnell teamed with fellow defender Jill Richgels to give the Jays back the lead. Richgels lofted a free kick 30+ yards from near midfield, then O'Donnell headed the ball into the net from just inside the box.
Tied 2-2 in the second period the tandem repeated their feet. This time, however, Richgels sent a ground pass from the corner to a streaking O'Donnell for a one-touch goal.
Defensively, Creighton held Omaha to just one shot on-goal in the second half on Friday night to extend the Bluejay winning streak to seven matches.
O'Donnell and Bluejays return to the pitch on Thursday, Sept. 26 as the Jays open BIG EAST play with Marquette at 7:00 p.m.
