To quote Plato, 'Youth is wasted on the young.' Truly, it is. All that vitality and sense of possibility and youthful energy goes to people ill-equipped to fully benefit from it. It is not surprising then that even ancient Greeks were complaining that the youth have lost respect for their elder. Same problem, different millennium. However classic this problem of youthful disrespect of parents may be, it poses a serious societal issue in this day and age. Considering the huge amount of technological, economic, and geopolitical changes afoot currently, society needs a strong moral anchor that enables today's youth to draw from the collective wisdom of earlier generations. This opportunity is lost when youth don't respect or honor their parents. How can you learn from your parents if you don't respect them enough to follow what they advise? How can modern generations benefit from the wisdom of previous generations if they don't honor their fathers and mothers? This is not a simply academic or sociological issue. Considering the fact that today's generation needs key survival strategies from the past, this can be a matter of life and death-on a society-wide basis. Listening and learning from others (like you do when you learn anything else, in my case today it was learning how to optimize css delivery on www.giftofspeed.com).
The Biblical Command
Regardless of whether you are secular or religious, there is a strong social value to be gained from the biblical injunction to 'honor your father and mother.' In fact, the passage in Exodus actually comes with a promise to youth who follow this particular Mosaic command. The verse includes a promise that if you honor your father and mother, you will live a long time. This link between longevity and, implicitly, prosperity with honoring the vessels of past accumulated knowledge highlights the importance of learning from the past and building on previous knowledge. The truth is that we can't learn everything there is to learn about life, we have to take the word of those who have lived before us. All this accumulated knowledge counts for a lot. Sadly, all this goes out the window when kids don't even bother to listen to or take their parents seriously.
The social value of respect and tradition
Societies are also organisms. Societies live and breathe based on the social 'fuel' that courses through its organs. These are traditions, mores, byways, and norms. These aren't plucked from the thin blue air. Often, they are arrived at from harsh hard-won experiences. They summarize and encapsulate timeworn coping mechanisms and historical solutions. Again, all these go out the window and we are left to grope in the dark of current experience when kids fail to honor their parents and give due deference to their parents' advice and experience.
The older you get, the smarter your parents get
Ever notice that as you accumulate more and more of life's hard lessons and have a lot of lumps and wounds to show for it, that you could have avoided so much drama had you listened to your parents? My father has always been bald as long as I've known and warned me about stress and a healthy lifestyle (as advised on the excellent Growhairguru website) The truth is that your parents aren't dishing out all that seemingly hard truths and 'harsh' advice you'd rather not hear because they just want to dish it out. They were young before. They wish they didn't have to give you the advice they are giving you because it doesn't fit their ideas of an ideal world. Still, they still give you the advice they give you because they care about you. They learned the hard way that these classic truths about human nature, how the world works, and how things turn out were true in their parents' day, was true in their own day, is true now, and will continue to be true in the future. Imagine how much wiser you would be if you listened to them?

FORT DRUM Something spooky may be roaming the halls of the LeRay Mansion on post.
It cant be explained, but a collection of mysterious figures reportedly has stepped loudly through the halls of the early 19th century home, played with children and even flushed toilets rooms away from the nearest person. One potential answer is that it could be the spirits of previous inhabitants and visitors.
Thats one of the wonderful things of growing older, said Laurie W. Rush, the posts cultural resources manager. Over time, enough new things happen to you that you begin to realize and gain a greater appreciation that theres so much more going on than we really, really know.
The mansion was built in 1808 by James LeRay de Chaumont and was rebuilt in the 1820s after being destroyed in a fire. The federal government acquired the property in 1940.
Ms. Rush got her first taste of the mansions lore when she spoke with the garrison commander after taking the job in 1998. The garrison commander told her that on multiple occasions his dog would rush toward the door as if something was on the other side, then without reason quickly run away yelping.
Thats when I was introduced to the fact there were other occupants of LeRay Mansion, Ms. Rush said.
Fifteen years later, Ms. Rush said, her most frequent paranormal moment comes when she does tours of the mansion, as she enters the homes basement area. With nobody else in the house besides her and her tour group immediately with her, a noise has emanated from an upstairs bathroom. She said she has had the unusual flush happen six different times over the course of her career on post.
I can almost point, and the upstairs toilet will flush, she said. Invariably somebody will say, Oh, toilets will do that. Not in my house.
However, Ms. Rush said, unusual sightings in multiple forms have been relayed to her over the years, from animal appearances to shifting furniture.
A small boy at the house while his mother helped decorate it with her family readiness group for Christmas told her that he was playing with a group of other children, even though nobody else could be seen. As he left the house, he told his mother and her friends that the group of children and their parents were waving to them.
The little boy was so convincing that all the women stopped and waved goodbye to the mom and children on the stairwell before they left, Ms. Rush said.
A longtime lodging employee found himself with quite the scare as he investigated a noise in an upstairs bedroom while doing a quick inspection of the house. He knocked on the bedroom door, and a woman cracked it open and told the employee to come back later, as her husband was sleeping. Ms. Rush said the employee ended the inspection and went back to the lodging office. To his surprise, he was told that nobody had rented the room. When the offices staff went to investigate, they found no evidence that anybody was there.
Asked to describe what the mystery woman looked like, the employee described the woman as very pale, and wearing a very old-fashioned bathrobe. Ms. Rush speculated the person the worker saw was the spirit of Julia Phelps, who lived in the house for much of her life, up to her death in the late 1800s.
Other sightings have been a phantom fox, possibly representing the shooting death of a man that the shooter claimed happened after seeing a fox, and the cries of a baby who died in the first version of the mansion. Guests of the mansion have reported a person noisily walking around at night, reporting the squeak of soft leather hitting the ground.
For Ms. Rush, the spirit stories are not directly scary, but an indication that there is more there than meets the eye.
I think its terrific fun, she said.

Customer Reviews For Verus Forte Tower SD
- Expectations were exceeded Jonathan G.
- From the moment I logged onto the site to delivery and installation of my speakers I have been incredibly impressed. The speakers are beautiful to look at and provide really great sound. Very good bang for your buck!
- Speakers Look and Sound Great Michael W.
- The speakers were easy to set up and have performed very well so far. I cannot find any reason not to make this purchase again other than the fairly high price. That being said the quality seems to be there to warrant the price. All in all it is a very good looking and sounding product.
- Beyond Best Marcus P.
- My wife ordered the Verus Forte Tower SD for me as a gift and it is beyond spectacular. Delivery only took a 1 and a half weeks considering we live overseas. I kept getting confirmation calls of order/delivery. Everything came included as advertised. I love it and would recommend this system to any/everyone. 5/5 from me! Excellent job!

Pro Reviews For Verus Forte Tower SD
- Exceptional Value, Righteous Business
- These speaker sound great, very clear and the towers have a good amount of bass but the subwoofer enhances the lower end bass. sometimes i\'ll watch movie or a tv show and then i hear doorbell and think ugh, who the heck is that? A food delivery guy i bet...then my brain will say hey it\'s from the show! i think for the price the quality can\'t be beat. someone wrote that the finish attracts a lot of dust, which it kind of does but that\'s just how the material is and so does everything audio video related (probably due to the static electricity) but that\'s why they give you a nice cloth. the piano black finish is bad a$$, when you feel how smooth and how solid the cabinet is, you\'ll understand. anything that looks fancy and nice requires a little more maintenance. these speakers look and sound great. you can really turn up the volume and it still sounds clear.
in today\'s business environment, it\'s refreshing to find a business that cares about keeping you as a customer. i bought these speakers prior to a sale and then contacted them and they were cool about sending me the difference. they were more than happy to do the right thing to enhance the customer experience. they could have easily have told me no. matter of fact they saw that i used an incorrect price and they made an additional adjustment in my favor. all i can say is they have a client for life.
- Secrets of Home Theater & High Fidelity review of the Verus Forte Tower System
- "The Aperion Verus Forte system impressed me a lot. It delivered good all-around performance with cinema and music. The speakers had an articulate quality that communicated a lot of information from my high resolution sources. And the slim tower design, combined with the coincident array in the center produced a wide and uniform soundfield. The level of performance and the overall aesthetic available in the Aperion Forte system is so much more than its price would suggest. I recommend this nifty little system for someone with a small to medium size room who wants to maximize their purchasing power."

- Sound and Vision Magazine Reviews the Verus Forte Tower System
- Winner of the 2011 Sound and Vision "Certified and Recommended" Award!
"This system is gorgeously finished, winningly compact, more-than-solid performing, and quite inexpensive given its looks, sound and presentation. Aperion's new family qualifies as a paragon of value-engineered audio."

- Digital Trends "Editors' Choice" Award Given to Aperion's Verus Forte Tower System
- "9 out of 10. Due to their excellent musicality, large sound in a small footprint and high value, the Verus Forte Towers earn our Editor's Choice Award."
"The sonic character of the Forte tower is remarkably big for a speaker of any size, let alone one as small as this."
"The soundstage and imaging properties of the speakers are both pleasing. The Forte towers have the sort of pinpoint center imaging that will get you out of your chair to see if the center channel is on when it shouldn't be. Even when not "toed in", the speakers had a way of placing vocals in the very center of the room. The soundstage exhibited a fair amount of depth, but the sound didn't seem to stretch out beyond the edge of the speakers as much as we'd expected. Still, every inch between them was filled out with some portion of our recording's presentation. This pair of speakers didn't really "disappear into the room"- they do call some attention to themselves, but in an engaging sort of "check me out" fashion that hits your ears with lots of nuances and texture."
"Aperion's Verus Forte speakers, particularly the floor-standing tower model, offer an appreciable improvement over the company's already solid Intimus offerings. The differences between the two lines is most obvious in the high frequency section where the tweeter's higher-power handling and lower frequency capabilities serve to make the speakers sound articulate, accurate and detailed enough to satisfy just about any critical listener. Their more stylistic cabinets add to the speaker's refinement and make a pleasant statement in a room. At $495.00 each, the Verus Forte Tower represents a very solid value, if a bit more expensive than the company's Intimus line. We think these speakers will appeal to budget-audiophiles who want a speaker that challenges the law of diminishing returns by offering an incredibly refined, full bodied sound in an attractive package under the $1k price poin"

The disciples of communism claim that their ideological system is the cure for colonialism and imperialism. All the proletariats (working-class people) of the world, according to the prescriptions of Marx, are brothers. However, analysts observe that communism scarcely worked that way even in theory. Marx was a German nationalist who called for the extermination of Croats, Pandurs, and "similar scum." He sneered at Danish culture as purely copied from Germany and rejoiced at the Prussia victory over France in 1871 because it would lead to the triumph of German, rather than French, socialism. He loathed Judaism and Jewish society, as well as Christians.
The Bolshevik junta in late 1918, followed four years later by the formation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), presented itself to the world as anti-colonialist and anti-imperialist.

MENLO PARK, Calif. - November 7, 2005 - YouTube, a consumer media company for people to watch and share original videos through a Web experience, today announced it has completed a $3.5M round of private equity funding from Sequoia Capital. YouTube, founded by Internet commerce pioneers from PayPal, has developed a new service that allows people to easily upload, tag, and share personal video clips through www.YouTube.com and across the Internet on other sites, blogs and through e-mail. The service also allows users to create their own personal video network.
This investment will be used to accelerate the company's rapid growth, enhance product development and expand sales and marketing efforts.
"With more and more people carrying around devices that capture video-from digital cameras to cell phones-YouTube is set to become an essential destination for watching and sharing these experiences," said Chad Hurley, CEO and co-founder of YouTube. "We are very pleased by the support of Sequoia Capital. Since our public preview, we are already moving 8 terabytes of data per day through the YouTube community - the equivalent of moving one Blockbuster store a day over the Internet."
Prior to YouTube, it was not easy for people to make video available on the Web. The burden was on the user to support all the media players and the 100s of multimedia formats. YouTube is using its advanced technology infrastructure so consumers can broadcast their videos globally in a fast, fun and easy way.
"We are very excited to be involved with YouTube at a time when consumers are poised to benefit from all the consumer electronics available. The demand for user-generated content continues to grow exponentially," said Roelof Botha, Sequoia Capital partner and former CFO of PayPal. "We've already seen user-generated content blossom in text through blogging, in photographs through services like Flickr and Shutterfly, and in audio through podcasting. YouTube is pioneering the next wave to become Internet's premier video service."

- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
The purpose of this study is to assess whether immunization against pertussis in the mid third trimester of pregnancy provides passive protection to the infant by transfer of IgG transplacentally and by transfer of secretory IgA (and possibly IgG) in breast milk, sufficient to protect the infant against pertussis disease in the critical neonatal period, without suppressing the infant's immune response to active immunization and disease
Pregnant Women
Biological: Tdap
Biological: Td
Phase 2
Phase 3
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)
Primary Purpose: Prevention
|Official Title:
|Immunization of Women With Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoids Combined With Acellular Pertussis (Tdap) During the Mid Third Trimester of Pregnancy: An Evaluation of the Potential for Immunological Protection for the Neonate
- Comparison of serum IgG antibody levels against PT, FHA, PRN, FIM between Tdap and Td groups [ Time Frame: birth, 2, 4, 6, 7, 12, and 13 months of age ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Safety of Tdap in pregnancy including pregnancy outcome and developmental assessment. [ Time Frame: developmental screening at 1 year of age ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Detailed Description:
The purpose of this study is to assess the potential of providing initial immunological protection to the neonate by providing passive placentally transferred serum antibodies and breast milk antibodies against pertussis antigens (PT, FHA, PRN, FIM). This will be accomplished by
- determining the rate of maternal antibody decline from time of immunization until 12 months postpartum by measuring antibody levels in serum, saliva, and breast milk at specified intervals;
- determining levels of antibody transferred to the neonate relative to the interval from immunization to delivery;
- comparing levels of transplacentally transferred antibody with those achieved after the first, second, and third dose of the primary immunization series; and
- determining whether maternal immunization interferes with active antibody production following licensed DTaP-IPV-Hib in infants of women immunized during the mid third trimester of pregnancy.

Dave Brubeck
Markus Stuecklin/European Pressphoto Agency
Dave Brubeck, 1920-2012
Dave Brubeck was a pianist and composer whose distinctive mixture of experimentation and accessibility made him one of the most popular jazz musicians of the 1950s and '60s.
He died on Dec. 5, 2012, in Norwalk, Conn. He would have turned 92 the next day. Mr. Brubeck died while on his way to a cardiology appointment, Russell Gloyd, his producer, conductor and manager for 36 years, said. Mr. Brubeck lived in Wilton, Conn.
In a long and successful career, Mr. Brubeck helped repopularize jazz at a time when younger listeners had been trained to the sonic dimensions of the three-minute pop single. The Dave Brubeck Quartet's 1959 recording of "Take Five" was the first jazz single to sell a million copies.
Mr. Brubeck experimented with time signatures and polytonality and explored musical theater and the oratorio, baroque compositional devices and foreign modes. But he did not always please the critics, who often described his music as schematic, bombastic and — a word he particularly disliked — stolid. His very stubbornness and strangeness — the polytonality, the blockiness of his playing, the oppositional push-and-pull between his piano and Paul Desmond's alto saxophone — makes the Brubeck quartet's best work still sound original.
Outside of the group's most famous originals, which had the charm and durability of pop songs ("Time Out," "Blue Rondo à la Turk," "It's a Raggy Waltz"), some of its best work was in its overhauls of standards like "You Go to My Head," "All the Things You Are" and "Pennies From Heaven."
David Warren Brubeck was born on Dec. 6, 1920, in Concord, Calif., near San Francisco. Surrounded by farms, his family lived a bucolic life: his father, Pete, was a cattle buyer for a meat company, and his mother, Elizabeth, was a choir director at the nearby Presbyterian church. When Mr. Brubeck was 11, the family moved to Ione, Calif., where his father managed a 45,000-acre cattle ranch and owned his own 1,200 acres.
He went to the College of the Pacific, near Stockton, where he first studied to be a veterinarian but switched to music after a year. It was there that he learned about 20th-century culture and read about Freud, Marx and serial music; it was also there that he met Iola Whitlock, a fellow student, who became his wife in 1942.
Mr. Brubeck formed the Dave Brubeck Quartet in 1951 and was the first jazz musician to be featured on the cover of Time magazine in 1954. That same year he signed with Columbia Records.
He and his wife had five sons and a daughter. Four of his sons — Chris on trombone and electric bass, Dan on drums, Darius on keyboards and Matthew on cello — played with the London Symphony Orchestra in a birthday tribute to Mr. Brubeck in December 2000.
In 2009, Mr. Brubeck was a recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors.

I hail from a Northern California cattle ranch where I live with my husband and our fur kids. I've been sewing since I was a wee lass and am in love with fashions of the past -- especially the 1910s and 20s. I'm a former anthro-archaeologist who now spends her days rescuing Border Collies, repurposing "trash", organic gardening and adding to my fabric stash. I sew daily and mostly for myself as a girl can never have too many dresses.

Bill Wilson, Step Ten: 12 & 12 wrote:As we work the first nine Steps, we prepare ourselves for the adventure of a new life. But when we approach Step Ten we commence to put our A.A. way of living to practical use, day by day, in fair weather or foul. Then comes the acid test: can we stay sober, keep in emotional balance, and live to good purpose under all conditions?
I believe this paragraph, written by Bill, sums it up perfectly.
The first nine Steps prepare us -- for the adventure of a new life.
When we approach Step 10, we commence "to put our A.A. way of life" (the first nine Steps) to practical use,
day by day (Steps 1-10 being the 24 hr per day, One Day At a Time "Design for Living" ).
in fair weather -- or, foul.
THEN comes the acid test:
a. Can we stay sober,
b. Stay in emotional balance,
c. And, live to good purpose,
Under ALL conditions?
Then, in Step Eleven, he writes:
Bill W. Step 11, wrote:There is a direct linkage among self-examination, meditation, and prayer. Taken separately, these practices can bring much relief and benefit. But when they are logically related and interwoven, the result is an unshakable foundation for life. Now and then we may be granted a glimpse of that ultimate reality which is God's kingdom. And we will be comforted and assured that our own destiny in that realm will be secure for so long as we try, however falteringly, to find and do the will of our own Creator.
" the direct linkage among self-examination (Step 10, meditation, and prayer (Step 11)
"But when they are logically related and interwoven, the result is an unshakable foundation for life. Now and then we may be granted a glimpse of that ultimate reality which is God's kingdom."
What I understand him saying is: Steps 1 through 9, prepare us for a "Daily Living" of Steps 10, 11 & 12.
And, when Steps 10 (self examination and inventory) AND 11, prayer & meditation -- provide that "unshakable foundation" so that we can stay sober, keep in emotional balance & live life to good purpose -- in ALL conditions.
My question has been: "How can we expect to have any foundation at ALL -- to prepare us for the challenges ahead, so that we CAN use the "AA Way of Life" to guide us -- from times of chaos and crisis in sobriety -- into the vision of God's will for our lives AND experience that vision of living in "God's kingdom" -- UNLESS, we have taken Steps 1 through 9?
Thus, the longer time we spend out there -- staying sober, one day at a time, without building that "foundation" and constructing the "arch, whereby we shall pass to freedom" (taking the Steps) -- we're like a ticking time bomb -- waiting to go off and any unsuspecting moment.
I believe that this is the primary reason -- that our Founder's & Pioneer's -- who's stories are in the first edition of the Big Book -- took the Steps IMMEDIATELY upon sobering up physically. And, they learned, that this was NECESSARY to be able to maintain our sobriety, and emotional balance, and continue the Good Life.

The amount of the civil penalty shall not exceed $100,000 for each violation. Each day of a continuing violation shall constitute a separate offense. The amount of such civil penalty shall be assessed by the Secretary by written notice. In determining the amount of such penalty, the Secretary shall take into account the nature, circumstances, extent, and gravity of the prohibited acts committed and, with respect to the violation, the degree of culpability, any history of prior offenses, and such other matters as justice may require.
(b) Permit sanctions
(1) In any case in which—
(A) a vessel of the United States has been used in the commission of an act prohibited under section 5505 of this title;

(C) any amount in settlement of a civil forfeiture imposed on a high seas fishing vessel or other property, or any civil penalty or criminal fine imposed on a high seas fishing vessel or on an owner or operator of such a vessel or on any other person who has been issued or has applied for a permit under any fishery resource statute enforced by the Secretary, has not been paid and is overdue, the Secretary may—
(i) revoke any permit issued to or applied for by such vessel or person under this chapter, with or without prejudice to the issuance of subsequent permits;
(2) In imposing a sanction under this subsection, the Secretary shall take into account—
(A) the nature, circumstances, extent, and gravity of the prohibited acts for which the sanction is imposed; and
(3) Transfer of ownership of a high seas fishing vessel, by sale or otherwise, shall not extinguish any permit sanction that is in effect or is pending at the time of transfer of ownership. Before executing the transfer of ownership of a vessel, by sale or otherwise, the owner shall disclose in writing to the prospective transferee the existence of any permit sanction that will be in effect or pending with respect to the vessel at the time of the transfer. The Secretary may waive or compromise a sanction in the case of a transfer pursuant to court order.
(4) In the case of any permit that is suspended under this subsection for nonpayment of a civil penalty or criminal fine, the Secretary shall reinstate the permit upon payment of the penalty or fine and interest thereon at the prevailing rate.
(c) Hearing
For the purposes of conducting any hearing under this section, the Secretary may issue subpoenas for the attendance and testimony of witnesses and the production of relevant papers, books, and documents, and may administer oaths. Witnesses summoned shall be paid the same fees and mileage that are paid to witnesses in the courts of the United States. In case of contempt or refusal to obey a subpoena served upon any person pursuant to this subsection, the district court of the United States for any district in which such person is found, resides, or transacts business, upon application by the United States and after notice to such person, shall have jurisdiction to issue an order requiring such person to appear and give testimony before the Secretary or to appear and produce documents before the Secretary, or both, and any failure to obey such order of the court may be punished by such court as a contempt thereof.
(d) Judicial review
Any person against whom a civil penalty is assessed under subsection (a) of this section or against whose vessel a permit sanction is imposed under subsection (b) of this section (other than a permit suspension for nonpayment of penalty or fine) may obtain review thereof in the United States district court for the appropriate district by filing a complaint against the Secretary in such court within 30 days from the date of such penalty or sanction. The Secretary shall promptly file in such court a certified copy of the record upon which such penalty or sanction was imposed, as provided in section 2112 of title 28. The findings and order of the Secretary shall be set aside by such court if they are not found to be supported by substantial evidence, as provided in section 706 (2) of title 5.
(e) Collection
(1) If any person fails to pay an assessment of a civil penalty after it has become a final and unappealable order, or after the appropriate court has entered final judgment in favor of the Secretary, the matter shall be referred to the Attorney General, who shall recover the amount assessed in any appropriate district court of the United States. In such action the validity and appropriateness of the final order imposing the civil penalty shall not be subject to review.
(2) A high seas fishing vessel (including its fishing gear, furniture, appurtenances, stores, and cargo) used in the commission of an act prohibited by section 5505 of this title shall be liable in rem for any civil penalty assessed for such violation under subsection (a) of this section and may be proceeded against in any district court of the United States having jurisdiction thereof. Such penalty shall constitute a maritime lien on such vessel that may be recovered in an action in rem in the district court of the United States having jurisdiction over the vessel.

|Women's Track & Field » Schedule » Roster » News » Coaches » Camps » Recruiting Questionnaire
Tuesday, July 02, 2013
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – By adding 12 track & field specific recruits in addition to the 10 cross-country/distance runners announced last week, the Lipscomb track and field coaching staff secured the largest women's recruiting class in school history.
"This is definitely the largest track & field specific class we've had and will instantly help us achieve our goal of being the dominant women's track team in the Atlantic Sun Conference. But more importantly, these incoming women are incredible students and are all a great character fit for our team", says assistant track and field coach Luke Syverson. "With this class, we were able to add needed depth to almost all event areas, especially the sprints, throws and pole vault."
"With this group, our relays instantly get a boost from Abbey McMurray and Cassidy Proce. We also double the size of our throws and vault event groups", says Syverson. "Annika Backlund and Sarah Browning already have marks that top our current school record in the vault. They will likely contribute team points at the conference championship as freshmen. I also think that Jazmyne McGill has the gifts to join current Lady Bison thrower, April Terry, as one of the top female throwers in our conference.
"It's exciting that all these young women will join what is already the top distance event group in the ASUN as we continue to build this program."
In addition to securing some great local talent, the coaching staff scanned nationally as the 12 signees represent nine different states. Tennessee leads the way with five, with one recruit each from California, Virginia, Washington, Connecticut, Minnesota, Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana.
Below is the list of incoming 2014 Lady Bisons along with background info and highlights from their high school careers:
Annika Backlund
Wildomar, Calif./Murrieta Valley HS/Pole Vault
PR's: 11'9
Coach Syverson on Annika: Annika is a perfect fit for Lipscomb; a strong student, outgoing with her faith, fun to be around, and a competitor. Murrieta Valley has a strong vault program and she will continue to get better here. Her family is great and very supportive much like our team family. Annika plans to follow a familiar family career plan and major in Nursing.
Sarah Browning
Nashville, Tenn./Lipscomb Academy/Pole Vault
PR's: 10'7
Coach Syverson on Sarah: I'm excited to keep Sarah on campus. One of the things that impressed me about Sarah in watching her compete this season is her demeanor. She is a very mature competitor and always seemed calm during competitions. We know what we are getting with Sarah. She knows how to win as an individual and knows what it means to be part of a state championship team. Coach Cunningham and Coach Taylor, along with her private vault coach, Brandon Grass, have done a great job in mentoring her.
Molly Crawford
Maryville, Tenn./Maryville HS/Pole Vault-Relays
PR's: 9'6
Coach Syverson on Molly: Molly has competed in a number of different events for Maryville but will most likely train specifically for the pole vault here at Lipscomb. Depending on her development, she may see time in the relays as well. She is still fairly new to the vault and has spent time this past year with Tim Mack with his vaulting program. She is very involved in her church and service/mission projects and will be a great fit.
Rachel Dixon
Stephens City, Va./Sherando HS/Throws
PR's: 31'4 SP/104'3 Discus
Coach Syverson on Rachel: Rachel is another example of the type of student-athlete we look for. She has a strong academic background and wants to succeed. She is academically driven and is excited to join our team environment."
Abbey McMurray
Franklin, Tenn./Lipscomb Academy/Sprints
PR's: 12.75 100m/26.57 200m/60.38 400m/5' HJ
Coach Syverson on Abbey: "Abbey will bring a ton of positive energy to our team. She is incredibly nice. She has spent most of her high school career filling up her schedule with relays so we are excited to see what she can do in the open races. She is a leader on her team and her school. Because she is from the Academy, she knows who we are and what we are about."
Abby Newby
Puyallup, Wash./Emerald Ridge HS/Hurdles-Multi's
PR's: 16.22 100H/47.04 300H/5'1 HJ/101'5 Jav

Sarah Lavoie
Wallingford, Ct./Lyman Hall HS/Throws
PR's: 30' SP/102' Discus/84' Jav
Coach Syverson on Sarah: "Sarah's PR's are not as far as some of our other incoming throwers, but she makes up for that in the other areas that are important to us. Sarah was one that was planning on coming to Lipscomb from the start and wanted to be a part of our environment. I really think she will improve rapidly in all three throws, and I'm excited to work with her."
Jazmyne McGill
Plymouth, Minn./Robbinsdale Armstrong HS/Throws
PR's:38'2 SP/108'2 Discus
Coach Syverson on Jazmyne: Jazmyne's best event is the shot but I think she has the potential to be one of our top all-around throwers. She has elite thrower size as she stands 6'1 but even more telling is her athleticism. She has a number of years of competitive volleyball experience under her belt and I look forward to her learning the hammer this fall and even getting a javelin in her hand. She has a great personality and will be a good training partner and mentee for April Terry.
Bridget Perine

PR's: 2:30.5 800m/59.67 400m/27.83 200m
Coach Syverson on Bridget: "Bridget is a fantastic addition to our team. She is very personable and always seems positive. She has experience with the longer distances and tougher training than what most sprinters go through. That will pay big dividends in training with Coach Evan's 400m group. She is a great student and has been involved in her school and community in a number of activities. We are excited that she chose Lipscomb."

Sydney Sloan
Mason, Ohio/Mason HS/Pole Vault
PR's: 10'4
Coach Syverson on Sydney: Sydney comes from a very successful Mason HS program. She is another one that will benefit greatly from being a part of a great young vault group. She is an athletic vaulter with gymnastics experience. She intends to major in Nursing like Annika which is a strong draw for our university.
Sarah Wagner
Greentown, Ind./Eastern HS/High Jump
PR's: 5'4.25" (11:30 3200m/5:14 1600m/2:28 800m)
Coach Syverson on Sarah: Sarah has spent her HS career splitting her time between high jumping and distance running. She is an accomplished distance runner but will focus her career at Lipscomb on the HJ. I'm excited to see Sarah's progression when she is able to train specifically for the HJ, working on strength, speed, and explosion. She is one of the nicest gals and she is a perfect fit on our team.

By MIKE STARKAssociated Press Writer
Twenty-nine species in more than 20 American states, from a rare beach-dwelling plant in Yellowstone National Park to a caddisfly in Nebraska, may need federal protections to avoid extinction, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
The agency said Tuesday that 20 plants, six snails, two insects and a fish may warrant protection under the Endangered Species Act but in-depth studies are needed first.
The decision is a response to a 2007 petition by WildEarth Guardians, an environmental group that sought protections for more than 200 species, most of them in the West.
In February, the agency turned down protections for 165 plants and animals and delayed a decision on the remaining 38.
Among the 29 that federal officials said may need protection are the Yellowstone sand verbena, which only lives on the sandy beaches of Yellowstone Lake, several species of milkvetch in Wyoming, Utah and Colorado, and a Midwestern mollusk called the Frigid ambersnail.
Fourteen of the 29 appear in Utah, including 10 plant species and a small silvery minnow called the Northern leatherside chub.
According to the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources the leatherside chub, Gila copei, is a small minnow native to streams and rivers of the southeastern portion of the Bonneville Basin. It was once common throughout its native range, but presently is listed as a state sensitive species due to substantial decreases in population levels.
Leatherside chub live up to 8 years, and adults reach a maximum length of 150 mm.
The body is bluish above and silvery below, and males have bright orange-red coloration on the axils of the paired fins.
The skin has a leathery texture with very small scales (75-85 in the lateral line) and the anal and dorsal fins have 8 fin rays, which distinguish this species from other Utah minnows.
Conservation measures to insure the continued persistence of this small fish include regulations that prohibit collection and increased funding for research.
Recent genetic studies suggest that what has been considered the leatherside chub may actually be two distinct species, the northern leatherside chub, Lepidomeda copei, and the southern leatherside chub, Lepidomeda aliciae.
Diane Katzenberger, a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service spokeswoman in Denver, said each of the species will now get a detailed review, including identification of its range, distribution and threats.
Federal officials will then decide whether each needs to be protected as a threatened or endangered species.
Nicole Rosmarino, wildlife program director for WildEarth Guardians, said she's pleased with the decision but more needs to be done to protect other species deemed threatened by scientists.
``To catch up with the biodiversity crisis in the U.S., the service needs to be listing dozens of species at once,'' she said.
The Fish and Wildlife Service defines an endangered species as one that is in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range. A threatened species is one that is likely to become endangered soon.
The agency said several of the 29 species being considered for protection could be affected by climate change, including the meltwater lednian stonefly that's only been found in Montana's Glacier National Park. The loss of glaciers in the park by 2030 as predicted by some scientists could jeopardize the fly's habitat, the agency said.
Other species face threats from habitat loss, road construction, mining, livestock, energy development, off-road vehicles and water diversions, the agency said.
Nine species were denied the possibility of federal protections because there wasn't sufficient information in the petitions.

By JULIE HOLLAR and PETER HARTMinute Man Media/p
As the media spent an entire week memorializing Ronald Reagan, journalists redefined the former president's life and accomplishments with a stream of hagiographies that frequently skewed the facts and glossed over scandal and criticism.
"Ronald Reagan was the most popular president ever to leave office," explained ABC anchor Elizabeth Vargas. "His approval ratings were higher than any other at the end of his second term." Though the claim was repeated by many news outlets, it is not true; Bill Clinton's approval ratings when he left office were actually higher than Reagan's (66 percent versus Reagan's 63 percent). In general, Reagan's popularity tended to be greatly overstated by journalists. Through most of his presidency, he did not rate much higher than other post-World War II presidents, and his 52 percent average approval rating for his presidency places him sixth out of the past 10 presidents.
Mainstream media relied heavily on Republicans and former Reagan officials to tell the story of Reagan and his accomplishments, which resulted in a decidedly one-sided version of events. A June 7 article in the New York Times on Reagan's impact claimed that Reagan "was almost always popular and, many now say, usually right." But six of the eight sources the article quoted were former Reagan staffers or Republicans, one was longtime Reagan devotee Margaret Thatcher, and one was a professor who gave no argument that Reagan was "right" about anything.
Should readers be surprised that Reagan's friends and former colleagues still think he was right?
Television news displayed an even more pronounced reliance on Reagan's Republican admirers, which may have provided an intimate view of the former president, but it yielded virtually no acknowledgment of his flaws. Former Secretary of State Alexander Haig, when questioned by CNN's Anderson Cooper to name Reagan's greatest weakness or failing, responded, "I'm not going to criticize the President. And even if I wanted to, I would never do it on an occasion such as this." And so the public received glowing accounts of Reagan's influence over world politics and the direction of the Republican Party, two subjects which dominated the media's Reagan tributes. But more often than not, the more controversial aspects of Reagan's legacy were either downplayed or recast as footnotes.
Reagan's fervent support for right-wing governments in Central America was one of the defining foreign policies of his administration, and the fact that death squads associated with those governments murdered tens of thousands of civilians surely must be included in any reckoning of Reagan's successes and failures. But virtually no mainstream news outlets even mentioned the death squads in discussing Reagan's legacy. And most journalists kept silent about the fact that Reagan's policy of supporting Islamicist insurgents against the Soviet-backed government of Afghanistan led to the rise of the Taliban and Al-Qaeda. Similarly neglected in the media was the Reagan administration's significant support for Saddam Hussein-including providing him with ingredients for biological weapons.
The Iran-Contra scandal, which loomed too large to ignore, was often written off by journalists. "As we look back today, it's like just a speck in the eight years of his presidency," explained CNN's Judy Woodruff. The rare opportunities for critical reflection about Reagan's policies were turned into additional evidence of his strength, as when Time magazine suggested, "Even when his views were most intransigent�when he wondered out loud whether Martin Luther King Jr. was a communist or failed for nearly all of his presidency to speak the word AIDS even once-- Reagan gave Reaganism a human face."
Some reporters now seem to think that the main lesson learned from the Reagan years was not to be critical. As ABC's Sam Donaldson put it, "Reporters over the years made the mistake of saying, 'Well, he made this mistake, he made this mistake. He got that fact wrong.' The American public got it right. It didn't matter."
As Tom Rosenstiel of the Project for Excellence in Journalism told USA Today: "For networks that are accused of being liberal, this is a way for them to show that they are fair." One would hope that such an overwhelmingly uncritical assessment of important political and historical matters would not meet anyone's definition of "fair" journalism.

From fabulous to functional, these outfits run the gamut.
- 2 of 11
Sienna Miller
On a recent trip to the Groucho Club with some friends in London, Sienna tossed her favorite fur coat over a pair of leather skinnies, a white tank and an embellished sequin jacket. The takeaway tip here is to wear your crossbody purse under your coat when wearing bulky layers. We particularly love Sienna's Alexander McQueen Heroine Mini Satchel ($1595) in black.
- 3 of 11
Alexa Chung
Chung added some whimsy to her all-black peter-pan collared Lacoste dress and Darryl K Chelsea Boots ($324) with this fuzzy camel teddy coat from Marni (similar here). With a layer this hefty, you can get away with a dress and tights on a sunny day.

Article# 2200
|Vendu, but we have similar works in our Shemi collection!
|Description historique:
This work is a vibrant example of Shemi's artistic effort to transplant a figurative world into passionately abstract art. In this case, the imagery of Dutch windmills explodes onto the canvas as Shemi uses wild gestures and colors to encompass the Dutch culture in a mosaic of life and strength. As one art historian put it, "Looking at Shemi's works, we are admitted to a world where color runs delightfully riot". Certainly this piece testifies to Shemi's expertise in creating a painterly reality based in both the real world and one that exists apart from it. In this work Shemi indulges in a series of reds, pinks, blues, and yellows to express the movement and energy associated with Holland and its iconic windmills. His color sprawls across the canvas and yanks the viewer into a whirlwind of emotion, liveliness, and whimsical frenzy. In exploring a full color palette, Shemi expertly navigates between values to create an image that is powerful and pleasing. The resulting work is wild captivating improvisation of the visual finalities he set out to portray.
Created in 1991, this unique, original painting is hand signed and dated by Calman Shemi (1939 – ) in the lower left: "Calman Shemi 91." Also signed and dated on the verso: "1991 | 'Mosaic from Holland' | (variation) | Calman Shemi [sig.]"

Calman Shemi biographie
Calman Shemi, sculptor and painter, was born in Argentina in 1939. A graduate of the School of Sculpture and Ceramics in Mendoza, he was a student of the Italian-Argentinean sculptor, Libero Badii, and the German-Israeli sculptor, Rudi Lehman.
In 1961 Shemi settled in Israel and joined Kibbutz Carmia of which he was a member for twenty years. There he worked in agriculture and also as a sculptor working with wood and clay. Several large-scale projects made of fiberglass and polyester are situated in various public buildings.
Though sculpture dominated his early years as an artist, Shemi developed the idea of the "soft painting" medium while living on the Kibbutz Carmia in 1977. Beginning with a color drawing done to scale, Shemi layers irregularly shaped pieces of variously textured and colored fabrics. Using a thread less 9000-needle sewing machine, the fabrics are meshed to one another and to the background, resulting in vibrant compositions infused with exuberant color and explosive movement.
In addition to his "soft paintings," Calman Shemi has also created over 1200 prints and paintings for cabins and suites on board the "Sensation," one of the Carnival Cruise Liners. His giant paintings also grace the walls of many public places aboard the ship as well as paintings and sculptures for another three liners from Carnival Cruise Lines; the "Elation," which launched at the end of 1997, the "Paradise, which was launched in 1998, and the "Triumph," which is still being built.
As many artists strive to challenge themselves with new artistic mediums, Calman Shemi has done just that by developing two unique techniques of painting; his "lacquer paintings" and "window paintings.
Lacquer Paintings
These special pieces are created using vibrant colors and are painted on a wood or metal panel that has been gilded with gold and /or silver leaf. After the paint has thoroughly dried, many layers of lacquer are applied to the surface giving it a glowing effect. Between each layer of lacquer the piece is hand polished to give the surface its very shiny look.
Window Paintings
This creative style of painting resembles an imaginative "shadow box" painting. Shemi first creates a painting inside a wooden box. After the painting is completed, he then attaches a hand made wooden frame to the box. This unusual technique creates an illusion of looking through a window to a landscape or room. The frame is then gilded with gold and /or silver leaf and is layered with many coats of lacquer. This special technique creates the contrast between the "outside level" and the painting within the deeper level.
Calman Shemi's "lacquer" and "window" paintings are reminiscent of ancient techniques used to create art in Japan and China centuries ago. During the last eighteen years Shemi has held more than seventy one-man shows in the USA, Japan, Germany, Spain, Belgium and Israel. Today Shemi's works can be seen in many public and private collections around the world.

Pictures on the website make it look much larger, you might want to put "mini" in the website description.

The core of the Kennedy image was, in many respects, a lie. A presidential biographer, granted access to medical files, portrays a man far sicker than the public knew.

Mickey One
1965. USA. Directed by Arthur Penn. Screenplay by Alan M. Surgal. Music by Eddie Sauter, Stan Getz. With Warren Beatty, Alexandra Stewart. Mickey One—presented in a print gorgeously restored by Sony Pictures Entertainment—cries out for rediscovery as one of the most aesthetically daring and deeply personal Hollywood films of the 1960s.[[endblock]] Filmmaker Arthur Penn made the transition from The Miracle Worker (1962) to Bonnie and Clyde (1967) with this allegorical Purgatorio, for which he enjoyed complete directorial freedom and employed an experimental style inspired by the French New Wave. Warren Beatty portrays a nightclub comedian who hurtles through a Kafkaesque netherworld of vengeful mobsters, street evangelists, and sneering lounge lizards, only to come face to face with his own demons on a dark, empty stage. The film's kaleidoscopic narrative is held together by Eddie Sauter's wildly ambitious score, with its freewheeling allusions to bossa nova, polka, Béla Bartók, and beyond, and by tenor saxophonist Stan Getz's soaring, plaintive multitrack improvisations—a fascinating follow-up to Sauter and Getz's legendary 1961 album Focus. 93 min.

In an interview with MusicRooms.com he dished about what he does and doesn't look for in a woman – so you single women may want to pay attention.
As he has gotten older, he admits his tastes have changed quite a bit. "I used to go for the blonde cheerleader type, now I like brunettes." He also likes people with a "natural sense of humor".
But more importantly, what is his number one turn off? Bad breath. Morrison recalls one specific date that was completely ruined by halitosis. "I remember one date with a girl who had the worst breath but talked the whole way through dinner. She didn't get a kiss."
