Wednesday, December 08, 2010During World War II everyone in the United States made sacrifices due to rationing of items like rubber for tires and food items. Major League baseball suspended play due to a lack of players. It was not any different at Lipscomb. A junior college at the time, finding players for athletics teams was a challenge. Lynn Harris, who spent some time with Lipscombsports.com this week, played for the Bisons basketball team while he was still in high school..
What sport did you play at Lipscomb? What years? Who were your coaches?
"I played basketball in 1944 and 1945. Eugene "Fessor†Boyce was my coach.â€
What is your fondest athletic memory at Lipscomb?
"I have two. One was playing against David Scobey, who had played at Lipscomb before transferring to Vanderbilt.
"I played college basketball at age 16 while I was still in high school. I couldn't play high school basketball because I was a transfer student. I don't know if I was that good. They had an extremely good high school team back then.
"The college was not a member of any organization then. They told me they needed someone to play on the college team. They said if I would take high school courses in college that they would register me as a college student and give me high school credit for the courses I needed to graduate. I got some college credit along with that too.
"It was hard to find players because of World War II. We only had nine players on the team. I was a guard. I ended up making first team.
"We made one long trip. We went to Cookeville to play Tennessee Tech.â€
Who had the biggest influence on you during your athletic career at Lipscomb? How?
â€â€™Fessor' Boyce because of his humility. He did a little bit of everything back then. He coached tennis and golf and taught two or three classes.
"He was one of the nicest guys you would ever want to meet. He was very easy-going. He never got upset.â€
What is the fondest non-athletic memory from your time at Lipscomb?
"The Christian fellowship. All of the students were quality students. I would say that 99 percent of them were members of the Church of Christ. Just being associated with that group of people was so different to me than it was when I was growing up and going to a public school. "
What is the most valuable thing you gained or learned from your time at Lipscomb?
"Friendships that have lasted a lifetime.â€
Who was your favorite professor>? Why?
Harris J. Dark for his knowledge of the Bible, his correct interpretation and the application of its teaching.â€
Where do you live now?
In Brentwood, Tenn.
Who is your employer? What is your occupation? What does your position entail?
"I retired in 1993. I was with the Dana Corporation as a distribution manager for the midsouth working with independent distributors. I was also an accountant for seven-and-a-half years.â€
Tell us about your family.
"My wife's name is Nancy. We have a daughter, Suzanne Ramsey, and a son-in-law, Fred. We have two grandchildren, Paul Allen and Olivia Ray Ramsey.â€

When defense counsel for James Holmes, the alleged Aurora, Colorado shooter, said on Monday that Holmes was not ready to enter a plea in his murder trial, Arapahoe County District Court Judge William Sylvester entered one for him: not guilty. The judge also said Holmes could change that plea to not guilty by reason of insanity, but if he did, Holmes would be required to submit to a "narcoanalytic interview" using "medically appropriate" drugs to determine if he really was insane at the time of the shooting or if he was just faking it.
Truth serums have a lurid history, and their effectiveness in rooting out truth has been seriously questioned. Use of them raises serious legal, ethical, and constitutional questions, as well. Scopolamine, sodium pentathol, and Amytal are the drugs most commonly used in such interviews, as they cause the patient (in this case, the defendant) to become uninhibited and talkative, but according to the Gale Encyclopedia, they "do not guarantee the veracity of the subject.… Persons under the influence of truth serums are still able to lie and even to fantasize."
The procedure involves injecting Holmes with gradual doses of the drug until he relaxes and becomes more open to questioning. August Piper, a Seattle-based psychiatrist who has used truth serum in treating patients, explained how it works:
During an Amytal interview, the physician administers small amounts of the drug, by vein, every few minutes. The procedure usually takes about an hour. The patient is drowsy and slurred of speech, but awake — the so-called "twilight state" for the duration of the interview.
Intravenous Amytal causes a feeling of relaxation, warmth, and closeness to the interviewer; while in this state, the patient is questioned.

Browsing on YouTube I click play and a video begins showing pretty hipster girls gazing longingly at the camera. They are dancing with boys with long hair and handsome beards, all of them bathed in the golden light of youth and optimism. The day is almost over and they are dancing their hearts out. In Dolores Park, on rooftops and in front of the Golden Gate Bridge, this is young San Francisco remaking shot for shot an homage to an homage, a copy of a copy. They really mean this and they really are this pretty.
This video is part of an intriguing phenomena of call and response video's posted on YouTube in homage to the fan video, "the brat pack mash up" which was first posted in the spring of 2009.
The original video, composed of various edited scenes mostly taken from the movies of John Hughes, 'mashed up' with the song, 'Lisztomania' by French pop group Phoenix inspired a group of twenty something friends in Brooklyn to remake it shot for shot with their beautiful p... More

SarahHairBlackNormal HairDry HairThick or Coarse HairWowI got this on sale the other day and will be purchasing this from now on from folica.com
This stuff makes my hair SO shiny and protects it from heat damage so well. I spray a generous amount of this on damp hair out of the shower, then blow dry, put on some chi silk infusion, let it set a bit, spray a little bit more of this on, and flat iron. It sounds like a lot, but application of this spray is really easy, and I only apply a dime of silk infusion for my extremely long thick hair. I like that no matter how much I apply it does not make my hair feel greasy or weighed down like other heat protect products can. My hair has never felt so soft, shiny, and silky in my life. I've used Chi silk infusion for years, so I know this spray is what has changed my hair for the better. I have noticed a difference in my hair every time I use this stuff. Get it!6 out of 7 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

NicolePhiladelphiaHairAuburnCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairLove This Spray!!I have super thick, coarse & curly African American type 3b/c hair. I wash my hair, use Rusk Smoother Leave-In Conditioner before blow drying. I then use the Rusk Thermal Shine spray after fully blow drying my hair and right before the flat ironing process. I take very small portions of hair, spray with the thermal shine for protection, straighten the hair first with my tourmaline ionic flat iron, then again with my Instyler. The result is super shiny, flowing hair that I can run my fingers through. I love this stuff! Just went through 2 bottles, ordering 2 more bottles today :o)9 out of 10 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

Hi Everyone,
I'm very excited about heading in a new direction. I'm starting a backpacking trip through Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia tomorrow. It is for 5 weeks. When my husband first proposed this I felt that 5 weeks was too long. I'll miss my cats, my fabrics, and my sewing machine. But then I realized that area is where much of the silks come from and there are some fantastic embroideries waiting for me to bring home. Also, I'm taking a sketchbook, watercolor pencils, and a point a shoot camera to get shots of foliage, temples, etc. I'm going to try to design abstracts with the themes of Asian culture and jungle fused together. This will be a big step for me since I can't really draw and it takes weeks for me design something. On this trip, I'm going to try to make many designs quickly and then I can modify and hone them when I get home. Do any of you have a process that you follow when you design from scratch?
Wow what a trip that will be, I bet you come up with all kinds of new ideals there, be sure and tell us all about it when you get back, I will live vicariously through you :) you might take some little paper books and pencils to give to anyone who will draw you a design and who knows what you might get :) have fun
I would not concentrate on trying to design anything right now, save that for when you come home and all those images are floating through your head. Right now I suggest trying to capture images, textures, details of everything that catches your eye. Think of it like taking visual notes, that you can literally draw from later for final composition(s).
Don't worry about the drawing skills at this point, use a camera. I am sure you will have time to relax on your trip too, so use those times to take out your drawing tools and make simple sketches, maybe just trying to reproduce the colors of a flower and surrounding foliage with out trying to draw the actual flower. Look at the textures or designs in a piece of fabric or architecture and try to express the essence of it without trying to reproduce it. Work on capturing the spirit of the place, because that will give the art you make later the most authenticity.
Have a great trip!!!!

Oh, you lucky, lucky thing!! I'm so jealous... the fibers, fabrics and designs you'll see can change your life in the months and years after you return home!
My very best suggestion is to take a good digital camera with as high an optical zoom capability as you can afford (I recommend ignoring for the most part the digital zoom capability- it makes for pretty crappy renderings of your subjects), and a good tight macro setting as well and document everything you find interesting.Get close in on your subjects, be they patterns in fabrics or tall grasses in the sun or the faces of the locals you meet. These tight shots are fabulous for using later as design inspirations.
You will either need to a way to offload those images occasionally, or have a few back-up memory cards with you. The camera I use is a Canon PowerShot SX10 IS and I LOVE it... you don't need expert photography skills to take fabulous photos.
These kinds of images are, for me, quite often a launching pad for so many projects, from painting to stamp carving to sketching.

I think travelling and getting to know new places, people, habits,cultures is the most important thing we can do to open our minds and learn relativity. Enjoy your trip without any planned idea, just open yourself to a new environnment,and with all your senses, not only your sight : feel,touch, hear, smell and taste ! Discover traditionnal handicraft, fabrics, embroideries, but also music, cooking, plants,animals, people...etc., All that chemistry will appeal to you in a conscious and unconscious way and will fill up your mind and build your souvenirs...Little by little, after you come back, you will see what's coming out ! Maybe it'll take some time before you create something from your memories,or you'll see your usual surroundings with new eyes ! This will give you a rich live experience in any case, so enjoy it., take photos,buy typical products,don't feel obliged to draw,.and let us know !
thanks for the response. I like the advice of reproducing the colors. I once did an exercise on a photo of a bouquet of flowers. The goal was to estimate the percentage of each color in the photo and then create a study using squares and rectangles of those colors in the percentage they appear in the photo. It led to a very interesting composition that had nothing to do with flowers but was very attractive because they were natural colors in a natural proportion to each other.
Approachable Art,
My husband has a high quality camera and he is taking photos to remember the trip by. My camera is just a point and shoot (digital) and I'm using it to gather images for art later on. I'll stick them in photoshop and manipulate them, use parts of them, etc. to create art quilts. I'm very excited about the fabrics and fibers I'll see. I left room in my backpack for a bunch. I'm looking forward to the challenge of designing the quilts. There are so many ways I can take it.... realistic, stylized, abstract, etc. TIme will tell which way it takes me.
I'm taking a bunch of 1 1/2 inchies that I made and I will give them away to people I make purchases from. I like the idea of asking them to draw a design. That will be fun. I suspect I will be on idea overload when I get back and I'll have to focus on only some of the ideas. I'll share what I find when I return.
Ms spirit2sew,
I can't draw worth anything at all. I think you have the right idea though. I might sugges that you also bring along some glue and pins so you can just stick in some samples that give you inspiration. Some my best designs come from things that already exist. Just enjoy yourself and try to capture whatever you can so you can come back and use it in your art. If you get samples - all the better. I have some awful sketches that just give me a general idea of what I want to do later on - while I still remember. A few minutes later, the thought is lost because I am on to something else. The sketch does not have to be elaborate. It just has to be enough so I remember what I want to do later on. Since I really suck in the drawing department, I will add arrows, words, and color to supplement. The real sketch is drawn in my mind. I am good at the visualizing. Sometimes the most simple visual will trigger what I need to remember. I am sure that you will bring home plenty of colors, textures, patterns, and fabrics that you can use in your designs. Have a wonderful trip. One of the best trips I ever had was backpacking in Alaska.

How wonderfully exciting!! As Judy has said I dont think you will want to try to put a solid design together untill your back home. with the sketchbook and watercolor pencils I would just keep fast sketches of any and all things that capture your eye. Colors and texture especially. Cameras are an must! Take notes. lots of notes that put forth the feelings your getting from something that inspires you. That will make it much easier to remember just what it was you were thinking at the time. I think your idea of quick designs is a good one, and with notes all over the page to help in the modifying when your at home. Enjoy yourself!! I look forward to seeing what you come up with when your back.
Thanks for taking the time to respond. I've been reading a tour book about the places we want to see and I think that I"ll be able to immerse myself during the 5 weeks. I think it will be important for me to add words as you suggest so that I know what my intent was when I did the sketch. I'll try to add words not only about structure of the design, but words that express emotions to capture in the final piece. I'll be in touch a little during the trip, but will share more when I get back home.
your idea of notes to get the feeling is important. I haven't really done that before. I'll let you know how it goes.
How exciting for you and your trip! When I travel, I sketch little drawings and take lots of photos, and the drawings sometimes have nothing to do with the area I am visiting, so be prepared for that to happen too. I was in Alaska once, and drew lots of fairies while there. What "fairies" had to do with "Alaska" I have no idea! :)
I can't wait to see how it all turns out when you are back.

It looks like I'm responding way too late... you are already there. But my best advice is to take a camera and capture as much as you can that way. If you have to move fast, the camera is a better option than the sketchbook. Hope you have a blast!

Photography and Imaging
Students have access to the latest tools for digital capture, image manipulation and digital output complemented by a critical awareness of the medium today.
Twenty-first century photography is an instantly recognized form of visual communication. Contemporary photographers have unprecedented artistic freedom and an astonishing range of technological tools to support their efforts. Mastering both digital and traditional photography, students learn to create a personal style, develop themes and market their work. From the creative, controlled environment of a studio shoot to the experiential side of shooting on location, students explore photography from every angle. Students who desire further study or specialization at Ringling College can also pursue concentrations in commercial applications, conceptual practices and digital media courses.

Carbon County residents may think the best mechanic is one they do not visit very often.
In recognition of October Car Care Month, AAA Utah has compiled a list of tips designed to assist consumers in avoiding costly motor vehicle repairs and selecting auto technicians for maintenance.
"Preventative maintenance is the best way to avoid the expensive headache of car repair," said Rolayne Fairclough, AAA Utah spokesperson. "Keep to the service schedule laid out in your owner's manual for oil changes, tire rotations, brake checks, battery replacements and the like, and you'll spend as little time and money as possible at the shop."
When vehicles require auto maintenance or repair, AAA Utah recommends that Carbon County consumerst:
â¢Determine what type of repair facility is needed.
Most vehicles can be repaired and maintained by full-service repair facility, but if there is a major problem with a specific vehicle system, a shop specializing in that area might be the best choice.
Vehicles still under warranty must be repaired by the dealer.
â¢Select a repair facility people trust.
Local residents should not hesitate to solicit input from friends, relatives and co-workers.
â¢Make an appointment.
If the facility manager knows a motorist is coming and has a rough idea of the problem, the right technician can be assigned to the job and allowed enough time to get it done properly.
â¢Describe the problem.
Don't tell the technician what needs to be repaired or replaced unless it's obvious. Instead, describe the problem and its symptoms, and let the technician determine the appropriate solution.
â¢Read the repair order.
Local consumers should be wary of blanket statements such as "check and correct transmission noise" or "fix engine."
The blanket statements could result in an unexpected and costly major repair.
People should never sign a blank repair order or tell the shop to "just fix it" or "do what's necessary" unless the problem is covered under warranty, advised the AAA Utah spokesperson.
â¢Request and obtain a written estimate.
Oral estimates can be disputed or forgotten. consumers should always ask for a written estimate prior to approving work on their vehicles, indicated the AAA Utah representative.
â¢Insist on a call if repair costs will exceed the estimate.
Predicting exact repair costs can be difficult so most written estimates allow up to a 10 percent overrun, pointed out the AAA Utah spokesperson.
However, Carbon County residents should make certain that the request to be contacted if the costs will exceed the allowance is written on the repair order.
â¢Ask for replaced parts.
When dropping a vehicle off for service, consumers should tell the shop they will want to see any replaced parts.
Consumers are also entitled to keep those parts, unless the facility must return them under a warranty or exchange program.
Replaced parts and a well-documented repair order can be useful if there is a problem later.
â¢Take a test drive.
If a problem remains or the vehicle does not run properly after it's picked up, local residents should not go home. Instead, the consumers should return to the shop immediately.
If a problem arises after leaving the shop, people should make an appointment to bring the vehicle back as soon as possible.
â¢Get a detailed copy of the repair order.
In addition, local consumers should make sure the repair order specifies the cost of labor and all parts.
Residents should deteremine whether the facility's warranty is available in writing if it is not printed on the bill.

Despite adequate numbers of maternal health workers showing up to work, new research published today (Tues 6th October) reveals it was the patients who stayed away at their own peril for fear of catching the disease.
Lesson plans delivered to teachers in India via SMS, tablets introduced to classrooms in Malawi to improve numeracy and specialist units created to bring down newborn mortality rates by 40% in five hospitals in Ethiopia, are among VSO's most successful recent initiatives according to its Annual Report 2014/15 published today.
VSO is calling upon all returned volunteers around the world to contribute to a new study into the long-term impact of volunteering on poverty. To take part in the Long-term Impact of Volunteering study, please register online
In London last night leading figures from the worlds of business and international development gathered to launch VSO Knowledge Exchange. Seed funded by the UK government's Department for International Development (DFID) and run by Voluntary Service Overseas (VSO), VSO Knowledge Exchange offers skilled employees in the private sector a way to volunteer to help change the lives of people in some of the world's poorest places.
VSO International - the development organisation which works through volunteers - will be ceasing operations in The Gambia from 30th June 2015.
It is now 100 days until world leaders meet at the United Nations in New York to agree on a new agenda for people and the planet – the Sustainable Development Goals.
The Sustainable Development Goals map out 17 goals for all nations to end poverty, reduce inequality and sustain the environment to 2030. The Goals mark a new era in international development and the current draft acknowledges the important role of volunteering in their implementation.
This week the UN released a 'zero draft' document outlining how the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) will look. VSO welcomes the high level of ambition in the draft SDGs. It's essential that this ambition does not waiver over the next few months, as the details are finalised.
VSO believes that the SDGs should be driven by people, not by governments or politics. The draft alludes to this, way down in paragraph 43, by stating that this is "an agenda by and for the people" but we call for these seven short but important words to be at the top of the agenda.
Parliamentarians from across the Southern African have been gathering in Pretoria this week for the VSO (Voluntary Service Overseas) regional annual conference on sexual and reproductive health.
12th May, 2015: Today the people of Nepal endured a second large earthquake just two and a half weeks after a massive earthquake devastated much of the country and affected millions of people.
VSO welcome the re-appointment of Justine Greening MP as Secretary of State for International Development. Welcoming the appointment, Phillip Goodwin, CEO of VSO said:

Vancouver Brewery proud Finalist for Green Business of the YearShare Tweet
L to R: Jason Hildebrant, Vancouver brewery; Todd Campbell, Brewery Manager; Bryan Cox, Director, Public Affairs; Scott Gordon, Chief Engineer; David Lamb, Brewery Finance; Tim Cowley, Planning and Execution Manager; Jason Uher, Vancouver Brewery
What a great night it was last night at Vancouver's University Golf Club for the Kitsilano Chamber of Commerce Awards Dinner. This is the 7th year of the event, which celebrates the achievements of businesses and entrepreneurs on Vancouver's West Side; Molson Coors Canada is a proud member of the Kitsilano Chamber of Commerce.
At last year's dinner, we were honoured to have been chosen as Business of the Year for our contributions to the local community. At this year's awards dinner, Molson Coors was chosen by the Chamber as one of the three finalists for Green Business of the Year, a new category this year. The criteria for nomination for this award is that the business "has taken a leadership role or have substantial involvement in initiatives that have a positive impact on green living, sustainable best practices, energy conservation and environmental benefit". This is certainly true of our Vancouver brewery.
Since 2004, at the Vancouver brewery, we have reduced water and electricity use by an amazing 29%. Put another way, in 2004 it took 7.5 cans of water to make 1 can of beer. Now it takes 5.1 cans of water to make one can of beer – quite an accomplishment by our committed and focused Vancouver team!
A sincere congratulations to Rocky Mountain Flatbread Company for winning Green Business of the Year last night; we are extremely proud to have been nominated for this award.

The Atonement and Forgiveness
One way to catch my attention is to comment on something I have written, so here comes triablogue who responded to my earlier post: Why Was Jesus Punished?
For God to simply forgive a person apart from the cross would be an unjust act. It would be an unrighteous act. It would be an unholy act. It would fail to satisfy his wrath. Going back to the illustration of the courts, it is not the duty of the court to forgive the offender. The same is true with God.
Poppycock! Absolute poppycock. The fact that I once touted this crap is a surprise to me now.
In this case the person primarily offended by our sins is God. He is the primary offended party. While others on a horizontal plane might feel slighted by comparison, God is the primary one offended. In this case, there doesn't need to be any punishment between offender and offended, even though God is also the judge. Why? If God is a person at all then he responds towards us as a person does, a father, and even as a creator who cares for us, not a harsh and demanding judge.
Your Christian God is primarily a judge and not a father. He's an aloof potentate who rules his people like the Kings of old did over the serfs and peasants. The very image bespeaks of a God who doesn't really love us, but cares more for administering punishment to offenders in a kingdom of serfs. But the Christian God wants to be known as a father, a person, a lover, and even as a friend of sinners--in Jesus.
It would be like living in a kingdom where we slightly offend each other from time to time (the horizontal plane). But none of us would ever want any of our worst enemies to be punished in ways that the King will do when he's offended by the very same actions that have merely slighted us(on the vertical plane). We would all desire that our enemies were all completely forgiven, including us ourselves, than suffer under the wrath of that aloof potentate who only cares about a infinite tit for a finite tat. None of us would be happy about such a king at all, nor that he would have had to punish his own Son (himself?), when none of us would have wanted anyone to be punished at all. We would think such a God is a monster, a weirdo, and even retarded.
All I am saying is that forgiveness between persons does not logically involve punishment, or retaliation, repentance, or reparations. Show me the logical and rational relationship between punishment and forgiveness between persons. That's all you have to do.
And I'll say that our methods of punishment today are much more humane today by comparison; that all humane punishment should be for the purpose of rehabilitation anyway; and that God should give up on no one--no one.
And I'll say that the more I understand someone, the easier it is for me to forgive them. That's why mothers seem to always love their sons no matter what they do. Does God not understand why we do the very deeds we do? Then he understands like no one else. If he understands, then he cannot be angry. Unless, of course, he's an aloof potentate who simply doesn't care.
While I may want someone who hit me to spend a few months in jail, or someone who stole from me to spend up to a year in jail, I would never want my worse enemies to be treated as Jesus suffered, nor spend eternity in hell, however conceived. I would want everyone who has ever done anything to wrong me to eventually be forgiven. All is eventually forgiven anyway, in time. Why doesn't God do this, since he apparently has all the time in the world?

NASA announced on Friday that it will add an inflatable module to the International Space Station. The space agency has awarded Bigelow Aerospace a $17.8 million contract to fly a Bigelow Expandable Activity Module, or BEAM, to the station, Florida Today reports.
The module's specifications and capabilities, and the timing of the mission, were not immediately disclosed. More detail is expected during a press conference Wednesday January 16, at Bigelow's North Las Vegas headquarters.
NASA said the module would demonstrate its benefits for commercial space endeavors and future exploration missions.
"This partnership agreement for the use of expandable habitats represents a step forward in cutting-edge technology that can allow humans to thrive in space safely and affordably, and heralds important progress in U.S. commercial space innovation," NASA Deputy Administrator Lori Garver said in a statement.
Bigelow, habitats are seen as potentially helping to open a market for commercial human spaceflight by providing destinations for private crews beyond the ISS.
Founded by Robert Bigelow, owner of Budget Suites of America hotels, Bigelow Aerospace says its expandable habitats could exceed the usable space of the ISS at a fraction of the cost. The company, that hopes to deploy the first privately operated space station, launched two prototypes in 2006 and 2007.

June 17-20 at 7 p.m. Nightly
AB Tech – Ferguson Auditorium
American Legends will be held June 17-20 in Ferguson Auditorium at AB Tech in Asheville. This year's Buncombe County Chautauqua gives voice to four American Legends. Meet ordinary citizens turned hero who spin their own tales, telling the truth as they see it. These four defiant Americans challenged the status quo and crusaded against injustice: Davy Crockett, Susan B. Anthony, Herman Melville and Malcolm X.
The Chautauqua format will be familiar to those who have attended in the past. Each evening, a scholar dressed in costume will bring the character to life through a first person monologue. The audience will then have a chance to question the character, delving more deeply into the issues that have been raised.
The replies will be historically authentic, based on research using letters, diaries, journals, and published writings. Finally, the scholar will step out of character to discuss the subject and answer questions from a critical, modern perspective.
Please plan to join us each evening in our indoor venue, Ferguson Auditorium at AB Tech. A musical program will begin each evening at 7 p.m. followed by the featured program at 7:30 p.m.
There is a suggested donation of $4 per night or $12 for the four-night series.

Gerber, Peter and Sova Each Sign MLB Contracts
OMAHA, Neb. - After hearing each of their names called in the MLB Draft, Mike Gerber, Jake Peter and Bryan Sova have all agreed to terms with their respective Major League teams and have reported for rookie ball. Terms of their former Bluejays' respective contracts have not been disclosed.
Peter, who left Creighton after his junior season, was selected in the seventh round of the Major League Baseball (MLB) draft with the 198th overall pick by the Chicago White Sox on Friday, June 6 and has reported to the White Sox facility in Arizona.
"The time I spent at Creighton were the best three years of my life. It was not an easy decision for me to leave my coaches or the Creighton community and especially my teammates," said Peter. "I would do anything for those guys, but I know they support my decision. I want to say thank you to everybody that made my time at Creighton University the best it could be and I will forever be a Bluejay."
As seniors Gerber and Sova had an easier decision to sign their respective offers. Taken in the 15th Round by the Detroit Tigers with the 460th overall pick, Gerber is at the Tigers facility in Tampa. Gerber echoed the comments shared by Peter.
"My four years at Creighton are a time I will never forget. I will forever be a Bluejay," said Gerber.

Activist shareholder buys up Ashland stake, prompting asset sale rumors
April 15, 2013 | Vincent Valk
Jana Partners (New York), a hedge fund and activist shareholder, has purchased a 7.4% stake in Ashland and held discussions with company management regarding Ashland's "business, corporate structure, capitalization, operations, strategy, and future plans," according to a regulatory filing. Jana is a known activist shareholder, having agitated for the breakup of Agrium last fall. While Jana has not publicly stated any proposals for Ashland, analysts say asset sales are likely.

A Critique of William Lane Craig's Moral Argument
Dr. William Lane Craig's moral argument for God goes as follows:
1) If God does not exist, then objective moral values do not exist.
2) Objective moral values exist.
3) Therefore, God exists.
Although the argument itself is (deductively) valid, we will discuss how Bill's definition of "objective moral value" given in Reasonable Faith leads to the logical impossibility of Premise (1) and at least a shaky ground for Premise (2), thereby literally closing the book on this version of the moral argument for good. The argument is presented within a letter I sent my friend Dr. Paul Copan, who spoke with me personally at the same time I was addressing Bill at the conference.
One point of interest that needs to be brought up: we got distracted on Calvinism in the middle of what I was supposed to say for the Moral Argument.
Premise (1) states that "If God does not exist, objective moral values do not exist." My friend Marques, the fan of Bill's whom I mentioned during our session, informed me that Bill defines an objective moral value as essentially "a moral assertion that remains true independent of human consciousness." I think this is the notion you and he defined during our talk and that which is given in RF.
The problem with Premise (1), as I mentioned, is that Bill only uses Existentialists in his lectures and similar notions in RF to provide an argument from authority - but we already discussed the "argument from authority" problem when we spoke, so I'll move on.
The further problem, which I did not get to address due to my unfortunate forgetfulness of how much gas the Calvinism subject empties out on a room (honestly sorry!!!), is that Premise (1) is logically equivalent to "If objective moral values exist, God exists,"; to prove this statement logically without appeal under Bill's definition, one must show that either:
(a) Objective moral values are present as an inherent property of reality qua reality independently of any consciousness, including God's, not unlike a Platonic "form" or Aristotelean "essence";
(b) Objective moral values exist because God delivered them by Divine Command, Divine Decree, creating Platonic forms to house them, etc., or in the hearts of men as Paul states.
No other means of morals being objective is at all possible. With what Bill says,
Option (a) is immediately an invalid option to prove Premise (1), for if morals existed as an inherent quality of reality, then either God created them in reality, leading to my objection for Option (b), or they exist in reality apart from God, making Premise (1) automatically invalid prima facie due to the fact that it presents either a possibility for objective moral values under atheism or objective moral values under a nonlawgiver God.
Option (b) renders any proof of Premise (1) automatically invalid by improper deduction. Premise (1) states that "if objective moral values exists, then God exists." But if we assert that objective moral values rest on God's existence due to either Divine Command/Decree, His creation of independent Platonic "moral vats" in reality, etc., as pressed forth in option (b), then Premise (1)'s logical proof fails deduction, to wit:
(1a) Assume objective moral values exist.
(1b) If a Moral Lawgiving God exists, then objective moral values exist due to His Divine Decree/Command, creation of independent "Platonic Morality Vats," etc.
(1c) Therefore, God exists.
(1d) Therefore, the statement "if objective moral values exist, then God exists" is true. Premise (1) is proven.
This argument is wrong from deduction.
Additionally, Bill's definition for an "objective moral value" drops the context of the identity of man, i.e. the context of a **finite** rational being. Indeed, Bill said both that these values would exist if God did not decide to create mankind, and that these values are nonbinding on a God of infinite nature. You might be interested to know that I assert that objective moral values *do* exist, but in a different sense than Craig; they are only possible if men exist, but they are *not* subjective because men exist *in reality.*
objective moral value != "a moral assertion that remains identically true for any rational being within this assertion's context."
If evolution arrived at another humanlike creature, then this objective morality would be the exact same assuming this, um, hypothetical "frog man" is rational; it depends on the identity of a rational being, not just on man qua man. It is objective because rational beings exist in reality, and the contexts of such moral actions exist in reality (i.e. outside of "Sophie's Dilemma" type extremes, all logically demonstrable). I will not go into this morality here, but it is much like Rand's morality that you provide a critique of in your God goes to Starbucks book - however, you'd be surprised that you have some incorrect notions, and that the morality - especially the neo-Ayn Rand version without the harshness she added to it - *isn't* as horrible as it sounds, and *is* objective (i.e. pertaining to reality above subjective consciousness), and *does* bridge "is-ought." I will describe it further if it is of interest to you.
Note that none of this disproves God, or even a moral lawgiver. But it shows that Premise (1) is invalid and that Premise (2) is on shaky ground given Bill's definitions, rendering his standard presentation invalid. Bill would do better to not use it as an isolated argument, but instead depend on Kalam and the Teleological Argument to first establish a God, and then to rule out atheistic "Platonic moral vats" or potential "Moral Lawgiving Gods" separate from a creator and designer of the Universe (as Bill does in his book on both counts, but not as well-developed by method) to then leave God the property of being the moral lawgiver. This is the most that is left for the moral argument given that my critique stands.

Though we've got fall fashion on the brain, we haven't forgotten that we're still very much in the midst of summer. (Thanks for the reminder, scorching temperatures.) Not that we're complaining, of course! We love the carefree, feel-good spirit of this season, especially all the fun and easy-breezy clothing that accompanies it. Accordingly, we've decided to dedicate today's installment of What They Wear to those hot summer days we adore so much with a round up of this year's best warm-weather ensembles. Whether it's Ashley Olsen's slip dress, Karolina Kurkova's crisp white denim, or Kirsten Dunst's LBD, today's featured ladies definitely know a thing or two about how to beat the heat in style, so be sure to take notes!
WHO: Karolina Kurkova
WHAT: Photographed out and about in New York a few months ago.
WEAR: Rag & Bone Capri Cropped Pants ($155) in Bright White; Alexander Wang Anita Structured Bag from the F/W 10 collection.
WHY: Whether it's high-waisted flares or a slim, cropped style, you really can't go wrong with white denim in the summer. Kurkova certainly got it right when she styled her lust-worthy Rag & Bone jeans with a sheer brown tank and silver t-strap sandals. The resulting look is simple, clean, and crisp: perfect for a casual afternoon lunch. To find yourself in a similarly savvy ensemble, try pairing ASOS' Sheer Cropped Shirt with Double Pocket ($43) with the Crop Zelda Distressed Jean Leggings ($70) from Express or National Jean Company's Ideal Ankle Skinny Jeans ($138).
WHO: Heidi Klum
WHAT: Shopping in Tribeca two months ago.
WEAR: Raquel Allegra Line Drawing T-Back Tank ($232, 312.202.0047); Work Custom Jeans Panther Shorts ($150); Chanel bag; Oliver Peoples sunglasses; K. Jacques sandals.
WHY: Easygoing and lightweight separates, like Klum's tank top and cutoff shorts, are key when constructing a warm-weather ensemble, especially if you're going to be running errands or have a day of shopping planned. In addition to approving of the model/mogul's outfit, we're also quite fond of her footwear, which is an excellent alternative to flip-flops. To create a likeminded ensemble, we suggest checking out LA Made's Tissue Jersey Tamara Tank ($44) or Swell's Moon Tank ($37) and pairing either option with Current/Elliott's Boyfriend Shorts ($168). Just be sure to snag a pair of chic sandals, like DV by Dolce Vita's Dara Flat Sandals ($50), to give your outfit a Klum-inspired finish.
WHO: Zoe Kravitz
WHAT: Spotted running errands in New York back in June.
WEAR: The Reformation dress and hat; vintage bag, sunglasses, and shoes.
WHY: While the foundation of Kravitz's look-a mini dress and a pair of brogues-is rather simple, her selection of accessories, including an across-body bag, fedora, round shades, and layered pendant necklaces, keep the look feeling of-the-moment and effortlessly cool. Fortunately for you, dear readers, mimicking Kravitz's smart outfit is simple! Just start with Aubin & Wills' Leventhorpe Checked Cotton Dress ($62) and add a few interesting necklaces, like All For The Mountain's Mothership Tassel Necklace ($330) and Anthropologie's Acai Tassel Necklace ($30). Once you have those pieces sorted, grab a pair of circular frames-Urban Outfitters' Oversized Round Frame Sunglasses ($7) or Warby Parker's Jasper Sunglasses ($95) are both totally cute options-and finish with Rag & Bone's Cotton-Trimmed Straw Fedora ($125), and voila! You'll be ready for those brutal temps in a flash.
WHO: Rachel Bilson
WHAT: Spending some quality time with her family at Underwood Family Farm in Moorpark, California back in June
WEAR: White t-shirt; Paige Silverlake Shorts ($129) in Woodstock; Soludos Roso Espadrilles ($28) in Red and White Stripe.
WHY: A basic tee and denim cutoffs is always a smart combo for hot days, but we suggest taking a page from Bilson's stylebook and adding a wide-brim hat and festive espadrille slip-ons for a casually cool finish. If you too enjoy Bilson's outfit, we suggest snagging a few of the basics first, like James Perse's V-Neck Tee ($65) or Express' Scoop-Neck Pocket Tee ($20) along with her exact shorts or Victoria Beckham's Cut-Off Stretch Denim Shorts ($150). As for her hat and shoes, we think Roxy's Breezy Straw Hat ($26), TOMS Pale Pink Cordones ($69), and Mymu's Marsia Flats ($138) all fit the bill perfectly.
WHO: Ashley Olsen
WHAT: Snapped leaving her apartment in New York last month.
WEAR: The Row Silk Slip Dress ($475); The Row Day Luxe Tote (price upon request) and Sunglasses ($874); Toms + The Row Hayden Shoes ($140) in Light Gray.
WHY: While a floral mini or a LWD are both suitable options for summer dressing, we're also quite fond of a simple slip dress a la Olsen. The lightweight, breezy fabric is ideal for humid conditions, plus the fuss-free silhouette is perfect for all your on-the-go moments, so don't hesitate to pick up Enza Costa's Long Slip Dress ($126), White + Warren's Maxi Slip Dress ($130), or 12th Street By Cynthia Vincent's Full Length Slip Dress ($276) today. Style any of these options with a pair of wedges for an effortless summer-in-the-city look or follow in Olsen's stylish footsteps and wear it with a pair of casual slip-ons for a chic-yet-laidback daytime outfit.
WHO: Kirsten Dunst
WHAT: Running around New York late last month.
WEAR: Black strapless dress; Louis Vuitton bag; Ray-Ban Original Wayfarer Sunglasses ($195); Chloe flats.
WHY: For Dunst, simplicity is the name of the game when it comes to beating the heat. Just take the outfit she put together while out and about in New York, for example. The actress kept cool in a fitted strapless dress and a pair of Chloe flats, accessorized with some classic Ray-Ban sunglasses. Though the LBD is an unexpected daytime option, she made it work by teaming it with casual footwear and a shoulder bag. If you're in the market for some look-a-like pieces, you definitely don't want to miss Aqua's Fitted Back Zip Dress ($108) or Forever 21's Strapless Pleated Dress ($20); both have sultry, body-skimming silhouettes that can be taken from day to night without missing a beat. And although Dunst's enviable footwear is no longer available, we think Cooperative's Leather Triple Buckle Skimmer ($20) and Topshop's Marsielle Black Double Strap Pumps ($56) are both worthy substitutes.
WHO: Elle Fanning
WHAT: Out and about in Beverly Hills earlier this month.
WEAR: Pendleton meets Opening Ceremony Madras Pleated Dress ($153) in Yellow; Cacharel sunglasses; Cooperative Janis Platform Sandals ($30).
WHY: By now you've probably noticed the one common denominator in all of today's looks: sunglasses! Stylish shades are a summer wardrobe essential and Elle Fanning certainly takes the cake with her bright orange pair by Cacharel. They are fun and playful, just like the season, plus they perfectly complement her swingy plaid mini dress. To channel Fanning's youthful and on-trend ensemble, try either LOFT's Madras Plaid Dress ($20) or Roxy's Desert Rain Dress ($50) with Urban Outfitters' Reisertown Round Matte Sunglasses ($7) in Orange, and you've got yourself a prime afternoon BBQ outfit!-Jessica Baker

In the canon of beauty principles, the necessity of maintaining one's roots is a mandate that's widely respected and universally followed. But lately we've noticed that some of our favorite trendsetters are currently bucking convention when it comes to their hair color. Rather than requesting highlights or submitting their locks to dimensionless single-process color, ladies like Erin Wasson, Nicole Richie, and Rose Byrne are opting for a look that's both directional and surfer dude-ishÂ--Ombré Hair!
In the fashion world, ombré usually refers to a fabric dyeing process that produces a pale-to-dark gradation of color. For our purposes, the order is reversed, but the idea is the same neverthelessÂ--hence the name. Technicalities aside, there are many fabulous things about this hair color trend: it's highly economical, incredibly low maintenance, and works with any texture or tone. It also can easily be dialed up to a punkish look (just ask for high-contrast hair à la Alice Dellal) or down to a subtler gorgeousness (per Rose Byrne), depending on your personal style. The only thing that's really required is a little length, but even cropped-hair girls can try it, albeit with a slightly different effect.
The hair trend can be attributed to repeat trendsetter Erin Wasson, who's worn a version of this graduated hair color for some time now. The secret to her enviably effortless look lies in the magnificently talented hands of Laurie Foley, the owner and artistic director of L'Atelier de Laurie in the East Village. Foley refers to her technique as "hair painting," an apt description of her highly customized process of using different brush strokesÂ--perfectly placed, yet strategically erraticÂ--to achieve a progressively lighter, very nuanced ombré blonde. While undeniably artful, the appeal is in its purposeful imperfection; one could image Wasson came by her hair color naturally, the last lingering souvenir from a lost summer or two on Tobago. Hair guru Harry Josh also gives his uber-fashionable clientele these labor-intensive hand-painted highlights. Though the detailed process is certainly a time commitment (such artisan work requires about four hours), we'd wait twice as long if the results meant our hair approximated Rose Byrne's masterful mane.
In addition to Wasson's blonded-out style and Byrne's chestnut locks, we also adore Nicole Richie's warm iteration, which was created by celeb-fave George Papanikolas of the Andy Lecompte Salon in West Hollywood. Papanikolas first took Richie's hair several shades darker to a medium light brown, and then used balayage technique to add highlights, starting at her natural center part. Using bleach, he painted golden blonde v-shaped tips on the ends of her hair. Then, to graduate the color, he went through her hair in big horizontal sections, backcombing each one before applying bleach in an arrow shape to the ends of the hair. (The backcombing will help diffuse and soften the highlight, giving hair that sun-kissed, natural look.) Papanikolas applied a similar regime for Shanae Grimes' shoulder-length locks; first he gave her balayage highlights to add progressively lighter color to her hair, followed by a round of bleach at the tips to emphasize the contrast.
Whatever ombré variation you opt for, just remember that even though it's low-fuss and budget-friendly hair (constant root touch-ups will be a thing of the past!), you still need to take care of it. Since you're lightening the tips so much, the ends of your hair will be ultra fragile, so definitely invest in some restorative products. Laurie Foley highly recommends Alterna's 10 line, specifically the 10 Shampoo ($60) and 10 Hair Masque ($55), as an after-care necessity. She also advocates limited shampooing (the fewest times per week you can handle) and switching to sulfate-free products to protect the color. George Papanikolas agrees that it's crucial to repair the hair and suggests using a rich conditioning masque like Joico's K-Pak Reconstruct Deep-Penetrating Reconstructor ($19) to infuse hair with much-needed moisture. In addition to these shampoos and masques, you should also protect your hair before styling. Harry Josh tells his clients to pick up a bottle of John Frieda's Frizz-Ease Hair Serum Thermal Protection Formula ($9), as it gives parched locks shine, shields color from UV damage, and protects hair from (damaging but necessary) hot styling tools. Whatever you use, just make sure to treat your lightened ends delicately for the ultimate ombré hair!

Woodson Doesn't Need To Be Phil Jackson
Woodson admitted he's "not in Phil's category," and that's fine. Nobody's in Phil's category.
Truth is, Woodson has been a much better coach of the Knicks than D'Antoni ever was, and so far that's been good enough for smart basketball fans in a smart basketball town. But that changes if the Lakers land another big free agent, Phil Jackson, and if Jackson gets to No. 12 before Woodson even sniffs No. 1.
Brian DiMenna
I'm being admittedly a little unfair to the basic tenor of this article, as O'Connor is mostly complimentary of the job Mike Woodson has been doing, but somehow the premise that should Phil Jackson return to the Lakers, Woodson will therefore be judged against Jackson's results is a little irritating.
I understand the instinct, given that it's now clear that Jackson could have been persuaded to take the plunge, and there's certainly no fault in the logic that the Knicks would have been wise to gauge Jackson's interest in a return before ultimately going with Woodson. After all, when the greatest coach in league history is available, a phone call is probably never a terrible idea. But should Jackson return and guide the Lakers to another championship that really has little relevance to how Woodson fares this season with the Knicks. It's not a straight line from "He won with the Lakers, so therefore had he coached the Knicks, they would have won instead." It doesn't really work like that.
Also, I know this is silly, and the odds are I'd abandon these old grievances after Jackson's first win on the Knicks bench, but as someone who came of age with the Knicks of the 1990's, Phil Jackson basically destroyed my childhood. The thought of having to actually cheer him on fills me with dread. What's next, Reggie Miller as the GM? Rik Smits calling the games? That part of me was a little thrilled I didn't have to face that reality.
As for the Lakers, I don't think Mike Brown is a particularly great coach, but it's truly bizarre to fire him after five games. If they had that little faith in the guy, you wonder why he was given the reins in the first place. My favorite question in the wake of the move was, "Is it a panic move?" No, clearly it was the result of a long and thoughtful process. I think I've seen people with their hair on fire show more patience (Ed note: I have not actually ever seen anyone with their hair on fire, but you can imagine if I did).
For Jackson's part, it is just another example of how hard it is for elite competitors to go find anything else they'll find even remotely satisfying. Jackson seemed genuinely eager to move on to the next phase of his life, until immediately finding that whatever that was exactly was nowhere near as awesome as being the head coach of the Lakers. As someone who's never been the head coach of the Lakers, I can definitely attest that it's not as good.
