PAWTUCKET — For a ballclub hoping to be one of the deserving 16 teams in the state's Open Tournament at the end of February, Shea's been doing its part these days by turning in some excellent basketball.
On Tuesday night, the Raiders put together another splendid outing to sew up their fourth straight victory, this one coming at "The Cage" against neighboring Division II crossover foe Lincoln.
Junior guard Chris Mainville's contest-high 21 points and nine assists and senior forward Alvin Semedo's double-double of 16 points and 12 rebounds led the way for the Raiders in their 63-48 triumph.
The win improves the Raiders' Division II-Central mark to 8-4 and overall record to 10-5, but the schedule doesn't get any easier for them. Their next two games are against the iron of the Division II-North in North Providence (11-2) and Cumberland (9-2).
"Hopefully, we can keep it together and keep playing hard," added Shea coach Matt Pita. "Division II is no letup. North Providence is coming in Friday night, and then we have Cumberland next Tuesday night. They're tough games. Anybody can win in this league, so you have to bring it."
The Raiders certainly brought it last night, and they needed to do so, because the Lions, who fell to 5-8 in the division (6-11 overall), refused to go away quietly.
Lincoln trailed by as many as 15 (35-20) in the opening half, but outscored its host, 10-2, down the stretch to soar into the break down by a 37-30 score.
Again, the Raiders brought their lead back into the teens (46-33) in the opening minutes of the second half, but the Lions fought back with three quick layups to again make it a seven-point game with 9:57 still to play.
But the Raiders broke away from their visitors for good with a 10-1 run, with Mainville leading the charge with six straight points, followed by a nice assist on Eli Itkin's three-pointer that capped the run.
"We found a way to win," said Pita. "Lincoln played tough, but we hit some key shots at the right times, we executed our gameplan, and we ran as much as we could."
The Raiders also did a great job tremendously defensively and played a large role in the Lions' 27 turnovers on the night. They also shined in the blocked shots department with 14 and got a great game off the defensive glass from Tito DoCouto (eight rebounds, five blocks).
The other two members of the Raiders' starting five also contributed to the cause, with Nathan Lopes finishing with a dozen points and Itkin also excelling defensively with five steals.
The bulk of the Lions' offense came from three players. Jon McCourt scored a team-high 19 points to go with six steals, Ryan Kelly contributed 15 points and a dozen rebounds, and Oseh-Lie Saine added eight points and 10 boards.
The Lions, who are looking to secure a playoff spot and join the Raiders in next month's Division II tournament, will return to Pawtucket on Friday for an 8 p.m. contest against another team in the playoff hunt, Tolman (5-6), and then host Exeter/West Greenwich (7-5) the following Tuesday.

Even with its hefty design, the Motorola Droid Turbo's robust battery, powerful processor and vivid display put it on the short list for Verizon customers.
Looking for phones? CNET editors' reviews of the best phones include product photos, video, and user reviews.
If $100 is the most you can spend, the Motorola Droid Mini will fit the bill, but splurging on the handsome Moto X pays dividends later.
If you can get past its steep price, the massive-screened Motorola Droid Maxx is currently Verizon's best Android smartphone.
Unless you want the thinnest smartphone on the block, the more powerful HTC One and Droid Maxx are better buys.
With quad-core power, 4G LTE, a lovely 5-inch screen, and a stunning design, the $199.99 HTC Droid DNA is currently Verizon's best Android deal.
Motorola's lovely new Droid Razr HD is fast and thin, but its weak camera should make mobile shutterbugs wary.
If you're not a shutterbug, the Motorola Droid Razr M's sleek style, fast CPU, and great battery life make it an excellent choice.
The Motorola Droid Xyboard 10.1 is a premium Android tablet from the company that defined the category, held back by a high price and uninspired design.
Although thin and light, with fast 4G LTE speeds, the Motorola Droid Xyboard 8.2 is impossible for us to recommend at its current price.
With its razor-thin design, jam-packed features, and blazing speed, the Motorola Droid Razr is easily one of the year's top Android smartphones.

The first fruits of the projected $6.2 million surplus on the 2008 school bond will be directed to a pair of roofs if the School Committee has its way.
The committee voted unanimously last week to request permission from the Town Council to appropriate $1,813,500 for roof replacement work at East Greenwich High School and $225,000 for roof repairs at Frenchtown Elementary School.
The request is expected to be on the council agenda at its next meeting Jan. 10.
The roof repairs were recommended by the town School Building Committee, which met last night and presented four recommendations to the School Committee. While the roof repair requests will go forward, the School Committee did not take action on two high school projects: $650,000 to upgrade technology and $500,000 to modernize its library.
And still lurking in the background is a potential $4 million roof and floor project for Meadow Brook Elementary School, which School Committee Chairman Deidre Gifford plans to have her board vote upon in January.
Building Committee Chairman Jay Gowell and Jonathan Winokur of school project construction firm SBS presented their case for the roof repairs as a necessity, given the age and condition of the roofs at EGHS and Frenchtown.
"This is not something new," said Gowell, citing his board's inclusion of the roofs in two bond proposals that were rejected by the council before it agreed to put the eventual $52 million bond, featuring construction of a new Cole Middle School, before voters two years ago. The reduced bond won approval after a larger one was rejected at the polls in 2004.
The Building Committee was willing to spend about half of the projected surplus on its recommended projects, with the roofs getting the highest priority.
"They're saturated, and they're past their useful life," Gowell said.
Winokur presented roof replacement recommendations based on two infrared studies conducted by different roofing contractors in 2006 and 2009. The high school work targets nine of the roof's 12 sections, with one 20-year-old section rated poor and the other eight, all 15 years old, rated fair. While much of Frenchtown's roof was replaced in 1998, one 22-year-old section was rated poor.
A recent tour of the high school, including the roof, by Building Committee and council members found some contention about the amount and number of leaks.
"For normal people to look at a roof and say whether it's leaking is difficult. But you can see leaks on the inside and brown stains on the ceiling and running down walls," said Winokur.
Building Committee members also cited concerns about leaks in the newly renovated guidance suite, part of the work on the administrative wing of the high school that was completed over the summer.
"You're recommending we repair the fair and the poor, and recommending some anticipatory repair," said Gifford.
The School Committee's motion to replace the roofs did not include the high school technology and library components.
"I'd like to see a more robust presentation on the other two sections," Gifford said.
The day of reckoning on Meadow Brook is drawing near, however.
"I think we have the data we need to make a decision on Meadow Brook. We can do it in January," said Gifford.
Deterioration of floor tiles and HVAC issues, in addition to roof problems, have created conditions at Meadow Brook which School Committee Vice Chairman Robert Durant likened to "a rain forest" and prompted talk of closing the school over the past several months. Recent space studies and enrollment projections, however, have convinced school officials the building cannot be closed unless a new school is built in its place. Gowell estimated the cost of a new school to replace Meadowbrook at about $15 million.
"We need the square footage. We need the classrooms," Gowell said.
The school bond includes $1 million for Meadow Brook repairs, which would require another $3 million in surplus funds.
Gowell conceded that his board lacks a consensus for action on Meadow Brook, even though most of its roof is rated poor.
"Maintenance is keeping ahead of it for now, but if we're not fixing the floor, why should we fix the roof?" he asked.
"I'd hate to put $3 million into that building and have it fail within ten years," said School Committee member Mary Ellen Winters.
Durant, however, felt there's still plenty of life in the 40-year-old building.
"You're going to have to fix the roof at Meadow Brook because we're going to have it for 30 years," he said.

Men's Soccer Begins Its Exhibition Week at Milwaukee
OMAHA, Neb. – The Creighton men's soccer team travels to Wisconsin-Milwaukee for an exhibition match at 1 p.m. CT Sunday.
The match marks the first exhibition for both Creighton and Milwaukee on the 2014 slate. The Bluejays and the Panthers claimed NCAA Tournament bids in 2013. As a result, CU and UWM received votes in the 2014 National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) Preseason Top 25 Poll.
Creighton collected 14 votes and Milwaukee tallied two votes in the poll released Aug. 6. The Bluejays are the sixth team listed in schools also receiving votes, placing them at No. 31 overall in the national rankings.
The contest at Milwaukee is CU's first exhibition on the road since 2011, a 2-2 tie at Notre Dame. The Jays are undefeated in exhibition matches under head coach Elmar Bolowich at 2-0-4. CU is undefeated in its last nine preseason contests with a 5-0-4 record. Creighton has not dropped an exhibition match since a 4-2 setback at the Kansas City Wizards in 2009.
The Bluejays are 3-1-1 all-time against the Panthers in regular season contests including a 1-0-1 mark in Milwaukee.

Scouting the Creighton Bluejays (2013 record: 9-8-2, 4-4-1 BIG EAST)
Creighton enters its first exhibition match of the season after a 2-2 draw in the annual Blue-White scrimmage on Friday inside Morrison Stadium.
The teams played a pair of 30-minute halves in the scrimmage as sophomore Fabian Herbers and junior Brendan Hines-Ike each scored twice for their respective squads. Freshmen Jacob Cini and Lucas Stauffer posted assists, as did junior Timo Pitter.
Twenty-two Bluejays saw their first minutes on the pitch during the scrimmage, including all 11 newcomers.
Creighton returns its top four scorers from last season in Pitter, Herbers, senior Jose Ribas and junior Christian Blandon. Redshirt senior Sean Kim also returns after an injury in 2013. Kim scored six points in five matches last season.
The Jays also return both goalkeepers from last season in redshirt senior Alex Bolowich and junior Connor Sparrow. The goalies combined for a 1.09 goals against average and six shutouts in 2013.
Five 2013 All-BIG EAST selections return for the Jays including Pitter, Ribas, Herbers, Hines-Ike and sophomore Ricardo Perez. The Bluejays welcome 11 newcomers to the squad but lose the services of 2014 MLS Draft selections Eric Miller and Zach Barnes.
Scouting the Milwaukee Panthers (15-3-2, 5-2-0 Horizon)
Milwaukee enters the exhibition following a successful 2013 campaign. The Panthers advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the ninth time in program history after claiming the Horizon League Tournament title with a 2-0 victory over UIC. Milwaukee suffered a 1-0 setback at Wisconsin in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
The Panthers lost just three matches in 2013. All three of Milwaukee's losses were also one-goal decisions. Besides the postseason loss Wisconsin, the Panthers fell in 2-1 in double overtime to Green Bay and dropped a 1-0 regular-season contest at UIC.
Milwaukee owned a 6-1-2 record at home last season and finished the year with a final NCAA RPI ranking of 31.
Senior midfielder Laurie Bell leads the Panther attack after topping the Horizon League with 13 goals and 30 points. Bell earned 2013 NSCAA All-America laurels and Horizon league Player of the Year honors. This preseason Bell earned recognition on the MAC Hermann Trophy watch list and claimed a spot on the TopDrawerSoccer Preseason First-Team Best XI.
Two other All-Horizon League selections return for the Panthers this season. Senior midfielder Luke Goodnetter scored two goals and 10 points for the Panthers while junior midfielder Declan Rodriguez notched three goals and eight points in 2013.
Sophomore goalkeeper Liam Anderson played every minute of 2013 for Milwaukee. The keeper finished his freshman campaign in net with a 0.63 goals against average.
UWM head coach Kris Kelderman is in his third season with the Panthers compiling a 23-11-4 ledger. The Virginia graduate played for the Cavaliers during the first few years of CU head coach Elmar Bolowich's tenure at Atlantic Coast Conference foe North Carolina. He helped UVA win the 1989 National Championship and later spent four seasons in MLS.
Record in the Badger State
Creighton owns a 5-4-2 record in regular season games in the state of Wisconsin. The Jays are 1-0-1 at Milwaukee, 3-1-1 at Wisconsin and 1-3 at BIG EAST foe Marquette.
CU suffered a 1-0 setback at Marquette in its last appearance in the state last season. The Bluejays last played at UWM in 1999, claiming a 3-0 victory.
Tough 2014 Slate
The Bluejays' 2014 schedule features five regular-season contests against 2013 NCAA Tournament teams, including four from the Jays' nine-match BIG EAST conference slate. CU also hosts No. 21 Wisconsin in an exhibition match later this week.
The Jays' will host 12 opponents and travel to play six other squads in the 2014 regular season. The slate is highlighted by nine matches against teams that finished among the top 50 in the final 2013 NCAA RPI; six of those are home contests.
Starting in mid-October, Creighton will face the other four BIG EAST squads that advanced to the NCAA Tournament last year in a span of just under a month to close out the regular season. The Bluejays battle three opponents that advanced to the Sweet 16 in 2013 including No. 9 Georgetown, No. 12 Marquette and No. 20 Stanford.
Ranked Foes in 2014
Creighton is one of four BIG EAST programs to receive votes from the NSCAA in the 2014 preseason poll. The other conference schools in the poll include No. 9 Georgetown and No. 12 Marquette. St. John's received 10 votes in the rankings while the Jays netted 14 votes.
In addition to the trio of contests against BIG EAST foes that received votes, Creighton's schedule involves three other teams that earned votes in the poll. The Jays open the regular season at home against No. 20 Stanford on Aug. 29. Two other 2014 non-conference foes also claimed votes in Saint Louis (10) and Tulsa (5).
2013 in Review
Creighton finished last year unranked on a three-game skid while compiling a 9-9-2 overall mark following an NCAA Tournament First Round setback against Seattle.
CU played a lot of tight matches in 2013 as each of the Jays' nine losses came by a single goal. The Bluejays completed their first season in the BIG EAST Conference with a 4-4-1 mark and a fifth-place finish.
The Jays climbed as high as No. 1 in the 2013 rankings on September 10 – the first time since 1999 that CU held the top spot. Overall, the Bluejays found themselves ranked in nine NSCAA weekly polls during the last regular season.
Fourth-year head coach Elmar Bolowich leads the Jays in their quest for the program's 22nd NCAA Tournament appearance in the past 23 seasons in 2014. Creighton returns 13 letterwinners and eight starters from last year's team.
Inaugural BIG EAST Season Review
Creighton ended its conference season in Providence with a pair of 2-1 setbacks to the Friars in the regular-season finale and a BIG EAST Tournament quarterfinal match.
CU never dipped below the .500 mark in conference and toggled between wins and losses over its last five league matches. Overall, Creighton won three of its last five regular-season matches after a three-game scoreless drought in mid-October.
The Jays were 3-1 at home in BIG EAST matches beginning with a 1-0 overtime defeat of St. John's in its conference debut (Sept. 21), a 2-0 win over Xavier (Oct. 5) a 1-0 overtime setback to Villanova (Oct. 19) and a 5-1 victory over DePaul (Nov. 2) on Senior Day.
The Bluejays' road record in conference can be deceiving at 1-3-1 this season. All three losses were settled by a single goal. In fact the only two league matches not decided by a single goal or less last year were CU victories over Xavier (2-0) and DePaul (5-1) at home.
Creighton finished 2-2-1 against the fellow 2013 BIG EAST tournament teams. The Jays tied No. 1 seed Georgetown in Washington D.C., lost at No. 2 Marquette and at No. 4 Providence while defeating No. 3 Xavier 2-0 at home and No. 6 Butler 3-2 on the road.
CU was 2-6-1 in true road contests in 2013 including a 1-3-1 mark in conference.
Jays Rank Among the Top 10 in Home Attendance for 11th Straight Season
With 27,156 fans attending matches last season, Creighton ranked sixth nationally in total home attendance. The Jays finished fourth in average home attendance in 2013 at 2,716 fans per contest.
Over 5,200 fans witnessed Creighton's 1-0 double-overtime defeat of No. 7 St. John's in the Jays' BIG EAST debut on Sept. 21 at Morrison Stadium. The crowd of 5,282 ranked as the sixth-largest crowd ever to attend a collegiate match at the Bluejays' home. The match also ranked No. 10 in single-game attendance nationally last season.
The total edged out a contingent of 5,102 Bluejay faithful that witnessed CU defeat Columbia 3-1 earlier in the season on Sept. 6. That crowd ranks No. 7 all-time in the Creighton record books for single-match home attendance.
Creighton is now 5-7-1 in front of 5,000-plus fans since 2000.
At then-No. 22 Saint Louis on Oct. 2, 3,070 fans packed Hermann Stadium to watch the Bluejays battle the Billikens last season. It marked the largest crowd in a regular-season true road contest to see the Jays play since 5,648 fans saw CU visit then-No. 3 Maryland on Sept. 30, 2011.
In 2012, then-No. 2 Creighton fell 2-1 to then-No. 14 Old Dominion on Sept. 14 in front of 6,848 fans – the top home crowd all-time at Morrison Stadium.
Jays Achieve No. 1 Ranking for the First Time in 14 Years
Following a 3-1 victory over Columbia on Sept. 6, 2013 Creighton became the top squad in the nation according to the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) poll released four days later.
It marked the Jays' first time back in the top spot since September 1999. Creighton was ranked as high as No. 2 in each of the last three seasons including last fall.

Brooke and Mickey Callanen
Brooke and Mickey Callanen believe that philanthropy can make a meaningful difference in the world. They seek out organizations and projects that have credibility, a compelling mission, and that can truly benefit from their investment of time and treasure. Ringling College of Art and Design and Sarasota Museum of Art (SMOA) are lucky to be among the organizations they have chosen to support.
The Callanens first learned about SMOA from board member Linda Dickinson. At a small gathering for interested community members, they heard Ringling College President Larry R. Thompson and SMOA President Wendy Surkis describe the plan to create a modern and contemporary art museum in the historic Sarasota High School building. The idea captivated them.
"We were taken with the concept of utilizing the high school building in a way that combined education and art," says Brooke, who is a former teacher and who, along with Mickey, has a great appreciation for art. Mickey remembered the high school from his childhood growing up in Sarasota and Venice. Both Mickey and Brooke appreciated the effort to save a Sarasota landmark and make it available to the community.
They made a generous donation to the project, but did not stop there. Brooke accepted an invitation to join the SMOA board so that she could help with the plans and share her enthusiasm for SMOA with others. "We like to stay involved and see results," she says.
As plans for the museum took shape and momentum began to build, Brooke and Mickey decided to make a second, generous contribution bringing their total giving in support of SMOA to $250,000.
As the Callanens look forward to seeing SMOA become a reality, they will have the satisfaction of knowing their philanthropy has indeed made a meaningful difference for their community.

Takuma Kajiwara photographs
I have several Takuma Kajiwara photos with his signature and chop mark in the lower right hand corner. The photographs are of women, and are very beautiful. They are in cardboard presentation folders. I am unable to find a comparable photograph that has been sold on the internet so I am unsure of its value. Is anyone familiar with his photographs of women?

The first official portrait of Kate Middleton was unveiled this morning in London ... and yes, that's supposed to look like her now.
Prince William and Duchess Catherine were there for the big reveal and while she reportedly said the portrait was "absolutely brilliant," it's been taking a beating online.
One reporter called it "an aesthetic disaster" while a Twitter user said it looked "worse than the touch up of Jesus!!"
"Kate Middleton's new portrait painting looks like the before picture on a miracle anti-ageing [sic] skin cream advert," wrote another.
And our personal favorite: "Kate Middleton's new portrait looks like that creepy painting from hell that can stare into your soul in Ghostbusters 2."
What do you think? The artist, Paul Emsley, says Kate wanted to "be portrayed naturally -- her natural self -- as opposed to her official self" in the portrait.
And while the portrait is questionable, the real Duchess looked amazing at the unveiling ceremony.
Sporting a belted red dress, the pregnant Middleton didn't show even a hint of a baby bump.

Hi, new here and just got over here from lurking at the LNO forums, and I just wanted to ask: What good and widely used programs are there? By that i mean programs like
BitchX (if censored: biatchX)
There are thousands of programs for Linux. Depends on what you want to do. I use LaTeX and tool (gv, xdvi, etc) for writing. I use Gnuplot for math plots. I use Mozilla to browse the web and do e-mail.
There is Gimp (a free Photoshop-like program) for graphics. There are gobs of text editors. There are several office suites.
What kinds of things do you want to do?
I agree with cga. To put it another way, "Use the right tool for the right job." (Hmm, I should come up with something more poetic.) For me, this includes operating systems.
Although, having the kernel is pretty essential to running any Linux based operating systems. For this, I highly recommend The Source(TM).
Also, playing Frozen Bubble is something I consider a must.
Thanks for the answers, maybe I should have said most common used programs, however morgath said some good programs I wasen't looking for the usual programs like gimp but just mostly the programs that is nice to have around such as gkrellm
Thanks for the answers ^_^
xmms, gkrellm (with all sorts of plugins), kuickshow, kvirc and if you have a digicam --> gphoto2
I would like to add frozen bubble too, but I couldn't get it running so far :'( ... maybe this weekend when I get home
Glad you asked this question because I was going to post something similar since I havent used Linux in months. One of the most fun things I done when I was first getting a feel for Linux was mess with all the window managers. Still to this day Im undecided on which one I prefer. It's great to be back in Linux and have choices.
Must have' for me:
KDevelop - The best IDE for me

Your first boot should be one that takes on all terrain; one that likes learning new tricks and riding right through lunch. You'll settle for nothing less than the custom fit of a heat-moldable liner, cloud-like cushioning, and women's-specific design. You want the flex to be soft for flying, yet supportive for landing. If you're looking to get it all in a boot that will perform as you progress, look no further than the Coco.

(1) The obligations of any coastal state or unit of general purpose local government to repay loans made pursuant to this section as in effect before November 5, 1990, and any repayment schedule established pursuant to this chapter as in effect before November 5, 1990, are not altered by any provision of this chapter. Such loans shall be repaid under authority of this subsection and the Secretary may issue regulations governing such repayment. If the Secretary finds that any coastal state or unit of local government is unable to meet its obligations pursuant to this subsection because the actual increases in employment and related population resulting from coastal energy activity and the facilities associated with such activity do not provide adequate revenues to enable such State or unit to meet such obligations in accordance with the appropriate repayment schedule, the Secretary shall, after review of the information submitted by such State or unit, take any of the following actions:
(1) The Secretary shall establish and maintain a fund, to be known as the "Coastal Zone Management Fund", which shall consist of amounts retained and deposited into the Fund under subsection (a) of this section and fees deposited into the Fund under section 1456 (i)(3) of this title.
(2) Subject to amounts provided in appropriation Acts, amounts in the Fund shall be available to the Secretary for use for the following:
(A) Expenses incident to the administration of this chapter, in an amount not to exceed for each of fiscal years 1997, 1998, and 1999 the higher of—
(B) After use under subparagraph (A)—
(i) projects to address management issues which are regional in scope, including interstate projects;
(ii) demonstration projects which have high potential for improving coastal zone management, especially at the local level;
(iii) emergency grants to State coastal zone management agencies to address unforeseen or disaster-related circumstances;
(iv) appropriate awards recognizing excellence in coastal zone management as provided in section 1460 of this title; and
(v) to provide financial support to coastal states for use for investigating and applying the public trust doctrine to implement State management programs approved under section 1455 of this title.

AUBURN, Maine -- (NEWS CENTER) Maine's 15 county jails are in a funding crisis - and at least one may close in two weeks as a result.
Androscoggin County Sheriff Guy Desjardins says he will have to close mid-May unless the state sends him $184,000 for this quarter. He needs it to make payroll. If he closes the jail, he will have to find beds at other facilities for 151 inmates, and lay off 56 employees, including 43 deputies.
The State Board of Corrections says they do not have the money to pay.
Desjardins blames the state's unique funding system: instead of having counties pay for jails, Maine capped the amount counties pay through property taxes in 2008 - giving homeowners a break. The money is pooled and doled out at the state level by the Board of Corrections. In exchange, the state agreed to pay additional amounts jails would need.
The Board of Corrections last week told Sheriffs they can only fund about half of what was budgeted for this quarter.
"Local law enforcement are still going to make arrests," says Sheriff Desjardins. "You can't let a felon go. If its a domestic abuse, an armed robbery, if its a murder case - we have three individuals in our jail right now for murder - we have to set up a contingency plan. I've got about 2 weeks to do that. Where would they go? No idea. That's why I'm asking for direction from the Governor."
Last Thursday, Desjardins sent a letter to Governor Paul LePage detailing his dilemna. In it he said, "Our budget shortfall is not due to over expenditures, but rather to the inability of the BOC to make their scheduled quarterly payment. I woud ask for your help in any way."
Androscoggin County is not alone. Each of the state's 15 county jails need some funds. Collectively the jails need $1.2 million to keep running - and that is just for the net two months.
The Governor has called all of the state's Sheriffs to Augusta Tuesday for a summit to try and address the issue.

Setting up RANCID with ViewVC on Fedora 18 to grab Juniper configs. RANCID was a piece of cake to set up using the step-by-step from LHN. ViewVC was a little more work... but got there using this tutorial: http://linuxfedora15lovelock.blogspo...nd-viewvc.html
Everything is up and running except all the images on ViewVC are broken.
Any tips on tracking this down?

Office of the Dean
One year has passed since I took the helm as the Dean in the School of Education at Gonzaga University and I am delighted to say that I am very satisfied in my role serving the School. All of us who work in the SOE are guided by our theme, "Preparing socially responsible professionals who serve with care, competence, and commitment." Although this theme may seem to be a simple string of words, we believe wholeheartedly in the meaning and spirit behind the words. Each day we strive to be an educational organization that leads by example and makes a concerted effort to have a positive impact on all those we serve regardless of race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, religion, country of origin, or sexual orientation.
In August 2013, I spoke to the SOE community and expressed my vision for the School emphasizing five main themes including professionalism, scholarship, teaching, collaborations and partnerships, and service. During this past year we engaged in many activities that touched upon one or more of these themes and we are making significant progress in relation to collaborations and partnerships. We have reached out to four major groups in our community to determine ways we can work together with public schools, Catholic schools, Native American Tribes, and the military.
Last fall the School hosted a reception for public school superintendents and department chairs to have an opportunity to learn about each other and how the SOE can work with public school teachers and students. Recently, Gonzaga University and the SOE together with Spokane Public Schools, Communities in Schools, Boys & Girls Clubs of Spokane, and Washington State University received a $400,000 grant from Community Partners for Middle School Success to lead the Hillyard Youth Collaborative. The efforts by this group will provide some significant resources for children in our community.
Principals from the Catholic Diocese of Spokane and SOE department chairpersons were welcomed by President McCulloh, Bishop Cupich, and Patricia O'Connell Killen, Academic Vice President, to a special reception in the spring. The President announced that Gonzaga and the SOE will sponsor a Professional Development Day for Catholic School teachers on October 10, 2014. Plans for this event are well underway and more than 150 teachers are expected to participate. SOE faculty and members of the Gonzaga community will present at multiple seminars and workshops centered around the theme of "Understanding the Whole Child: Spiritually, Academically, Physically, Emotionally, and Socially." In addition, a day of reflection is being planned for Catholic School teachers and principals focusing on the theme, "what does it mean to be a Catholic school today."
I have been working with Wendy Thompson, Director of Tribal Relations at Gonzaga, on learning about the educational needs of Native American students. Recently, we visited the Kalispel, Coeur D'Alene, and Spokane Tribes. The hope is that this outreach will lead to teacher institutes, workshops, and seminars on how to work with Native American students in various educational settings.
Soon we will reach out to military families and their children who attend various schools in the region.
The Young Child Expo and Conference: Spokane 2015 is a major event that will involve these four groups as well as multiple agencies throughout Spokane County. This conference will be presented by Gonzaga University, the SOE, and Los Ninos Services in October 2015, and over a dozen agencies have been involved in the planning. The conference will involve dozens of presentations, workshops, and activities centered on young children with and without special needs. The hope is to draw more than 500 participants from around the country, northwest Canada, and several other countries. This event will be a true collaborative effort and benefit to professionals who work with young children, their families, the community, and beyond.
We are proud of these connections we are establishing and celebrate them with you. If you have any questions about our School, would like more information about our programs, or would like to offer ideas about the future of the School, feel free to contact me at your convenience or visit our Web site. On behalf of the faculty, staff, and administration of the SOE, I wish you all the best in your personal and professional endeavors and hope to see you soon!

Slovak Champion Claims Third Stage
Stars like; Peter Sagan, Ivan Basso, Elia Viviani, Moreno Moser and many more promise to deliver results and incredible moments in this year's race calendar.
Today marks the second win for Cannondale Pro Cycling in 2013. After yesterday's great second stage win at the Tour of Oman, Peter Sagan won the third stage today (Nakhal Fort-Wadi Dayqah Dam, 190 km), confirming his leadership in the general classification (Gallopin, previously second, is now at 16"). This stage victory is a repeat performance for the Slovak champion, who won the stage in 2012. This year, Sagan beat his competitors thanks to a powerful attack on the last climb, arriving at the finish line alone (Van Avermaet was second, then Gallopin and Contador). In addition to the general classification, Sagan also leads the points and young rider's classification, while Cannondale Pro Cycling is the leader in the team classification.
"My teammates did a great job of supporting me and this win is the deserved award of their efforts," said Sagan. "I remember the last kilometres of the stage; my idea was to attack on the last ascent. What was unknown was what my competitors were thinking. Here at the Tour of Oman there are a lot of champions with different characteristics, each one could anticipate and try to attack. The high race rhythm of the final part of the stage didn't give any freedom and this helped me. I'm really satisfied with this win, especially the way in which I got it."
Tomorrow is the fourth stage, or queen stage, at the Tour of Oman, with the summit finish on Green Mountain.
"The final ascent is a hard climb. I will wait for attacks from the GC riders, both for the stage win and overall leadership. I know it will be hard to keep the jersey, but above all, it will be a useful test to understand my resistance on these climbs," said Sagan.

While we are at it. Which one of you snuck in to my house and stole my orange bitters? I had almost half a bottle and it has completely disappeared. I have searched every where and can not find it for the life of me.
Which ever one of you took it please return it as I really do not want to make a trip to the liquor store just for orange bitters & my martinis are just not the same w/o them.

Part of what I wanted from the film was a guy in armor with a giant hammer smacking frost giants in the face...and so I got that. It was a good time at the theaters, and that's all I asked for. Good review.

And in the end, isn't it all we really want and need from any movie, to see some frost giants getting smacked in the face with a giant hammer?

I remember liking this well enough, and feeling good for Branagh, who I've always admired. Looks like we are on the same page exactly here after reading through this typically thorough and engaging piece--it uses CGI in a different way than the dreaded Michael Bay, it showcases a buffo finale, and is captivating in it's visual design, and in it's "flourish of the fantastic."

How To Fight With Your Boyfriend
What it is: After being taken off the market for many years due to related health risks, the relatively new IUD is a T-shaped device inserted in the uterus by a health care provider. It can last up to 12 years.
How it works: The hormonal version is an ovulation-inhibitor, preventing the release of an egg from your ovaries that, when fertilized, gets you pregnant. As for the copper (non-hormonal) version, Herbenick says its not entirely understood how it works, but the copper essentially immobilizes sperm from traveling up your vagina.
Effectiveness: More than 99 percent
STD Protection: None.
What it is: Usually a latex or plastic cover for the penis available with a variety of bells and whistles, from flavor to texture and even glow in the dark.
How it works: The rubber prevents sperm from entering the vagina, so it can't join with an egg.
Effectiveness: 82 to 98 percent
STD Protection: Latex condoms greatly reduce the risk of contracting several STIs, including herpes, HPV, Chlamydia, gonorrhea and HIV.

As we wait for all of the personal-style pictures from the recent Paris, Milan, and London shows to trickle in, your WhoWhatWear.com team is content to take inspiration from past fashion weeks. After all, there are endless images of interestingly attired catwalk regulars to choose from, so finding noteworthy outfits isn't hard to do! The backstage beauty who caught our eye this month is none other than Kinga Rajzak, a raven-haired Slovakian stunner with a coolly eclectic wardrobe. While her runway days might be on hiatusÂ--it seems she skipped the F/W 10 showsÂ--her outfit selections are completely current, hence today's Model Off Duty story!
Rajzak's made a number of prescient fashion picks over the years, including one of the current season's biggest trends: mixed prints. She was snapped at Missoni's F/W 08 show (top row, second from left) wearing a quirky combo of spotted pants and a contrasting woven scarf with a fuzzy cream jacket and an oversized green Balenciaga bag. But that combo pales in comparison to the ultra-vivid ensemble she wore backstage at Anna Sui's F/W 09 show (top row, third from left). Rajzak wore a floor-length tie-dye dress with a zebra cardigan, resulting in a haute hippie outfit for the ages.
Of course, Rajzak doesn't always make a sartorial splash with an assortment of patterns. Sometimes she prefers a single pop of color, accented with a metallic flash. Take her outfit at Rick Owens' S/S 08 show (top row, far left) for example: though Rajzak selected a bright red dress, she layered it with simple neutrals (a white tee, brown bomber jacket, and black opaques) and finished it with her favorite gold lace-up boots. That same season, she created a somewhat similar look for the Chloe show (far right image) when she styled the boots with black basics, a cream vest, and a sparkly purple top.
But since our MOD's a mix master, sometimes she ditches the bold patterns and bright separates and settles on a color that's super au courant today: taupe. The model has shown off variations on this necessary neutral over the years, starting at the Dries Van Noten S/S 09 show (bottom row, second from left). On that occasion, Rajzak went for a body-con maxi dress and tonal leather jacket in the muted hue. During the subsequent show season at Roberto Cavalli (bottom row, far left), she simply picked an oversized taupe tee, which she wore with thrashed jeans, biker boots, and a blazer, all in black.
For those of you who want to emulate Rajzak's quirky closet, we've located a few pieces to help you pull off our MOD's style. To get your mixed-print fix, try a psychedelic frock like Mink Pink's Tie Dye Jersey Maxi Dress ($111) or Love Milly's Tulip Skirt Dip Dye Denim Dress ($60) with J. Crew's Vintage Zebra-Stripe Cardigan ($88). If a floor-length frock is too much commitment, you can always swap it out for a top, like the L'Agence Tie Dye Henley Caftan ($324), which has the same relaxed vibe but is a subtler piece. If you would like to pull off Rajzak's bright-and-black ensembles, try a saturated red dress like Shipley & Halmos' Fermi Dress ($445) or Elizabeth and James' Evans Tee Dress ($245) in Red Coral or a sparkly top such as Gryphon's Vein Sequin Top ($370) or DKNY's Sequin Tank ($125). Simply add your favorite black accents and some metallic lace-up combat boots, perhaps a pair of Dr. Martens 1460 8 Eye Boots ($120) will do the trick? As for our taupe tips, try the ASOS Lightweight Scoop Neck Maxi Dress ($44) in Khaki or the Penumbra Knot Back Dress ($235) and Dolce Vita's Emmy Leather Jacket ($550)! Whatever you pick, with Rajzak as your wardrobe muse, you're sure to get amazing results!

At Least It's Not For Granted Anymore
Jane McManus chronicles Sparano's thoughts on Mark Sanchez and how he's responded this week to being benched last weekend to the lusty cheers of the home crowd.
Mark Sanchez and his return from the Jets bench has gone well this week, offensive coordinator Tony Sparano said, in part because the quarterback isn't pretending that it's business as usual.
"I wouldn't say (he's) the same guy, no," Sparano said. "He understands what happened. He understands the magnitude of what happened. All that said, does he approach practice differently? No. He's approached practice as a professional every single day he's been in this building."

I honestly have no idea what to make of that. We all have heard about his work ethic. We've all heard about his dedication. The problem though as we'll all remember is that Brian Schottenheimer had an impressive work ethic and was extremely dedicated and it didn't mitigate how terrible he was.
Good, something's different. Good, Sanchez is not taking anything for granted. Rex Ryan has always stressed the importance of NOT turning the ball over on offense and he's got the second most turnovers in the last four years in the NFL (81) and he's JUST NOW getting the memo that he's not secure in his work?
I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!!!!

While recently driving to our property in the Nine Mile area, my wife, son and I were pleasantly surprised to come upon some new pavement of the soon to be completed Nine Mile Road project. It was nice to pull our loaded ATV trailer with our pickup truck on the smooth stretch of road. I drove at a slightly increased speed, which allowed us to get to our destination (and recreation) a full 10 minutes faster than before and in much safer driving conditions.
Thank you to W.W. Clyde and their sub-contractors for doing the construction work and to Jones and Demille for doing the engineering. Thank you to current and former officials and employees of Carbon, and Duchesne Counties as well as the Nine Mile Road Committee and the Nine Mile Coalition for what you have done to make this project a reality.
Finally, thank you to Bill Barrett Corporation.
I'm sure I have probably left out many others who should be thanked also.
Old time Nine Mile area Ranchers like my dad (Lyle Bryner), who passed away nearly 9 years ago would be amazed at how nice the paved road would be to haul a load of cattle.

Architects from around the globe have signed on to design houses, six of which have been completed so far. "I never had any idea that so many people would show up for this," Pitt adds. "The model works, and it's replicable."PinterestFacebook
