Softball Drops Doubleheader at Drake
DES MOINES, Iowa – The Creighton softball team dropped a Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) doubleheader at Drake Tuesday evening as the Bluejays fell 5-4 in the opener before a 9-1 setback in game two at the Bulldogs' Buel Field.
As a result, Creighton (27-16, 13-6 MVC) is now in a tie for first atop the Valley standings with Drake (28-19, 14-7) heading into the final week of conference play. Tonight's foes lead third-place Illinois State, who was idle Tuesday, by one-half game.
Eight different Bluejays posted hits against Drake on the evening, resulting in a total of 13. Junior Ellen Homan led the CU bats with three hits, including Creighton's lone extra-base hit - a triple, and four walks. Sophomore Liz Dike added three singles and senior Amy Baker connected on two. Creighton left 14 runners on base in game one, part of 20 Jays stranded on the day.
Junior Becca Changstrom started in the circle for Creighton while the Jays' batters went up against Mariah McKinnon.
Creighton was the designated home team in game one after the series was rescheduled earlier in April.
The Bulldogs opened the game with a run in the top of the first. Three singles helped Drake push a run across for an early 1-0 edge.
Creighton answered with two runs in the bottom of the frame. Dike singled and later stole second before Homan reached on a walk. Freshman Blake Ringle reached on a fielder's choice as Dike scored on a Drake throwing error. Baker singled through the left side to score Homan and give Creighton a 2-1 lead after one. McKinnon was chased from the circle as Rebekah Schmidt took over the pitching duties for Drake.
After a scoreless second frame, Drake regained the lead at 3-2 after a two-out rally. After Changstrom struck out a pair of Bulldogs, Drake notched a single and a home run to left field to move ahead 3-2 in the top of the third.
The Bluejays knotted the game at 3-3 in the bottom half of the inning. Homan walked to begin the inning. Senior Sammy Snygg put down a sacrifice bunt to move the runner. Baker later walked before a long single off the wall in right field by junior Alexis Cantu that loaded the bases. Sophomore Bri Lingl then connected on a deep single to left that scored a run to tie the game at 3-3 with one out. On a fly out to center, Baker was thrown out at home to end the inning.
Neither team scored in the fourth but Drake extended its lead in the top of the fifth. A leadoff walk followed by a home run that just went over the wall down the right field line pushed Drake's lead to 5-3 before Creighton got out of the inning.
Creighton scored a run in the bottom of the sixth. A one-out triple from Homan started things off. Ringle reached on a Drake error in the next at-bat to score the run and cut the DU lead to 5-4.
The Bluejays loaded the bases in the bottom of the seventh but could not plate a run as DU relief pitcher Jordan Gronewold earned a save by recording three K's to get out of the jam.
Changstrom recorded eight strikeouts in a complete-game effort but dropped to 20-8 after the loss. Schmidt earned the win to improve to 11-10.
Junior Alexis Cantu started the second game for Creighton while Gronewold got the nod for Drake.
Creighton opened the batting as the visiting team in game two, posting a run in the top of the first. Back-to-back singles to left field from Dike and Homan started the rally. The runners advanced to scoring position on a ground out. Dike later scored on a wild pitch to put the Bluejays up 1-0.
Drake responded with a pair of runs in the bottom of the inning. A one-out walk followed by a home run to left field put the Bulldogs out front 2-1 after one.
DU increased its advantage in the bottom of the second frame. A leadoff double followed by two Creighton errors allowed a run to score and make it 3-1. A ground out later scored the Bulldogs' second run of the inning as Drake moved ahead at 4-1 after two.
The Bulldogs took control of the game in their half of the fourth. A single and CU error put the leadoff batter at second. A sacrifice bunt moved the runner to third. An infield single scored a run to make it 5-1 DU. Another single through the left side put two on with one out.
Junior Brittany Telecky entered the game for Creighton in relief. Another single to left loaded the bases for Drake. A sacrifice fly to center scored a Bulldog run to produce a 6-1 margin. A home run by Gronewold cleared the bases to yield the final 9-1 score.
Cantu suffered the loss to drop to 6-7 on the year. Gronewold earned a win to improve to 17-8 overall.
Creighton concludes the regular season at home this weekend against Wichita State. The Jays will celebrate their three seniors between games of a Saturday doubleheader slated to begin at noon. The teams will wrap up the series with a single game at noon on Sunday.

Today marks one year since my hip replacement surgery... Something I never thought I'd have to do before I turned 30, but I'm so glad I had it when I did. I'm doing GREAT, with only minor twinges of pain on occasion. I'm walking better than I have in years, and I've even signed up for an untimed 5K in April, the Color Run. I've been wanting to do a 5K for years now, but never quite had the motivation to actually get out and get moving so I could do it, until now.
I am so thankful for all God has brought me through in my life, and that He has been faithful this past year. I attribute my recovery with NO setbacks to Him, and I'm so grateful.

We want Ginger to get used to water so we're trying to give her bi-monthly baths. She was so confused when we put her in the water. She stood really still at first and then started whimpering and tried to climb out. It wasn't that bad once we put on the shampoo, which smelled amazing by the way. It had a very herbal smell like rosemary that was so relaxing. I almost wish I could put it in my hair!
{my mom helped}
{ignore my messy bathroom}
Ginger is getting cuter and bigger every day! When we got her she weighed almost 7lbs and now she weighs a little over 8! I'm so curious to see how big she'll get and what she'll look like!
I hope you all are having a relaxing Memorial Day!

PAWTUCKET — For PawSox manager Gary DiSarcina, seeing Derek Jeter propel himself through the rehab process this past weekend helped conjure up one pleasant memory after another.
"I hadn't seen him in a while, but the first thing I thought of when I saw him was 'Man, he's a classy individual,'" DiSarcina expressed. "In my mind, he and Cal Ripken Jr. were the torchbearers. Cal handed it over to him, and not because Derek won, but it's the way he won.
"Like I said to his face the other day, Derek was one of the guys you hated to play against, but when you're done playing, you just love watching him play. He's everything that's good and pure about this game," DiSarcina continued. "He's been a standard bearer of the game and has done it the right way in a large market. He stayed out of trouble both on and off the field. You never hear anyone say a bad word about him."
DiSarcina doesn't know Jeter personally, though it's clear why the former would contain so much adoration for the latter. As an everyday shortstop for the Angels, DiSarcina would pay extra attention to his contemporary in the opposite dugout.
"I used it as a motivational tool because I wanted to play better than that shortstop that night," DiSarcina said. "At the same time, I would pick up things from that other shortstop – what he was doing that I liked and things that he didn't do that I liked. Whether it was Jeter, Ripken or Alan Trammell, I always watched those guys."
Jeter officially burst on the major league scene on May 29, 1995. His first game at Yankee Stadium came four days later with DiSarcina's Angels serving as the opponent. The box score from the Angels-Yankees contest on June 2, 1995 revealed that Jeter and DiSarcina batted ninth for their respective ballclubs.
"When he came up, he had first-step quickness and the range. He was a skinny kid, but he was young and fresh and had a ton of energy," DiSarcina recalled. "Playing against him, I couldn't stand him. He took hits away from us and was one of those if you hit a routine groundball to, you better make sure you make it clean and finish the play because he was going to run hard.
"He would do the little things like bunt and hit-and-run … he was a team player," DiSarcina added. "I think the world of him now that I'm not playing against him."
The sight of Jeter in a Scranton/Wilkes-Barre uniform for three games in Moosic, Pa. recently helped DiSarcina reinforce the sterling reputation that the New York captain has carved out.
"The body frame is still there, but he's a bigger guy. There's wear on his tires and he's not as quick, but he still has the same actions," said DiSarcina. "I think he plays the game for the right reason. Watching him for the three games, he took unbelievable secondary reads and was in the right cutoff positions and encouraging his teammates.
"I mean, he's a Hall of Famer on a rehab assignment. Watching him do those little things just shows me that he plays the game for the right reasons. He enjoys baseball and the competition aspect," DiSarcina went on. "For Derek to do it the way he did it on a rehab assignment proves what a special player he truly is. You saw it during batting practice and the way he interacted with his teammates and the opposition."
DiSarcina was not around Jeter on a day-to-day basis when Jeter was climbing through the Yankees' system. The Pawtucket skipper did get a taste of what life is like for a ballyhooed shortstop when Xander Bogaerts passed through McCoy Stadium on his way to joining the parent club.
"You can compare the outside noise that surrounded them, which I think stems from coming up in a big market and people knowing who you are," said DiSarcina. "They follow you and are excited to see you play and to hear what the scouts and TV pundits are saying."
Another comparison DiSarcina made between Jeter and Bogaerts is the makeup of the big-league clubhouse each happened to set foot in upon getting promoted.
"In Derek's rookie year, he was around veterans such as Wade Boggs and Paul O'Neill. Xander is around a great group of guys too – guys who are going to take care of him," said DiSarcina.

Great oven, spot on temp, great space

About Me Avid Cook
Best Uses
Comments about Frigidaire 30" Stainless Electric Double Wall Oven:
Replaced a whirlpool / kitchen aid product after 9 years. Whirlpool product had a defect where the circuit board was placed above the exhaust fan. This caused the circuit board to warp at high temps. Whirlpool suggested no broiling and no self cleaning! So we went with this model! Very satisfied, big wide opening, big door allows for easy viewing thru glass. Only down side was over was 1/8 inch larger than whirlpool model. The abt installers worked for 1hour to fit it in! Great service! Very satisfied!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

MASSENA - The villages Board of Trustees meeting at 5:30 p.m. today might be the last chance for concerned residents to comment on the proposed water rates to fund maintenance on pipes near Highland Road.
At least one ratepayer who utilizes those pipes plans to address the village board on what she sees as an unfair pay scale to fund the work.
Elizabeth Kaneb, administrator of the Highland Nursing Home, plans to urge the board to hold off on the proposal and consider a plan that is equitable in the rates it charges to village ratepayers and the town ratepayers who utilize the system.
The village owns the system, and they shouldnt come to us now and ask for a maintenance fee, Ms. Kaneb said. If theyre gong to charge a new maintenance fee, they have to decrease our water rates.
The village board voted earlier this month to establish a public hearing at its meeting at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday on the proposed $245,000 project, a cost that will be split between village ratepayers and ratepayers who utilize those pipes near Highland Road, outside the village. After the public hearing, the board may vote on the proposed project.
Under the proposed plan, all village homeowners would be billed $8.05 per year for five years, while the homeowners who use that system will be billed $56.69 per year for five years for the replacement of the pipes. There also will be a permanent maintenance fee, which will cost village residents $3.76 per year and residents in the Highland Road area $26.49 per year.
Ms. Kaneb claims ratepayers near Highland Road are billed higher water rates than village residents and believes she should only be billed a new maintenance fee if it costs the village more to deliver water to that part of the district.
The village would have to prove it costs more to deliver a gallon of water to me than it would to deliver a gallon of water to a village resident, Ms. Kaneb said.
Those ratepayers were billed a payment in lieu of taxes (PILOT) on water from the 1960s until 1997, when Alcoa began to utilize those village water pipes to avoid the high costs of the PILOT, which was based on 25 percent of a ratepayers assessed property value. The revenue from those PILOT bills went toward pipe maintenance and lowering water rates for homeowners.
Since 1998, the homeowners near Highland Road have been billed a PILOT for sewer pipes, but not for water, Mr. Fayad said.
Ms. Kaneb argued that when the PILOT was discontinued, their water rates increased to cover the costs.
You cant say to me the village eliminated our maintenance fees when they increased our water rates, she said. They increased our water rates in 1997 to cover the costs of what I would have been paying with the PILOT.
Mr. Fayad denied that the water rates were raised after the PILOT was discontinued, and the two have often cited different years in which the PILOT was discontinued.
Mr. Fayad had set aside $100,000 in his 2012-13 budget to repair the line, a cost which would have fallen to all village ratepayers. But village board members told him after budget workshops last year to come up with other options to pay for it.
Ms. Kaneb believes that by charging ratepayers near Highland Road a higher fee for maintenance, village officials are wilfully ignoring the actions of previous administrations regarding the take-over of that line and the PILOT it charged to the ratepayers who utilize it.
The village is in total denial to what occurred. They seem to think the past doesnt matter. It does matter, she said.
She acknowledged the revised proposal is more favorable for those ratepayers, but believes the plan to charge them more than village residents is unfair on principle.
Just because something is an improvement doesnt mean its right. If it was wrong to begin with, isnt this wrong also? she said. Wrong is still wrong.

Capture priceless views of the Flinders Ranges and outback South Australia holiday from the comfort of a four-wheel drive (4WD).
A 4WD journey let's you really feel the outback of Australia. Cross rugged peaks and rippled, red sand. See spectacular bird and wildlife. Drive along the Birdsville Track or Oodnadatta Track. See sky bluer than in any city.
Always check for up to date information before travelling on four wheel drive (4WD) tracks in the Flinders Ranges and South Australian outback. Take adequate food, water and petrol in case of a breakdown. Tell someone where you're going. When travelling in remote areas, carry a satellite phone in case of emergencies. Regular mobile phones will not work.
Four wheel drives are different from normal passenger cars. They have a higher centre of gravity and therefore are more likely to roll-over. Take extra care, especially when your 4WD is heavily loaded and you're driving on dirt roads.
It's important you know how to use the vehicle's tool kit and wheel jack and what to do if you get bogged in mud or sand. You must know how to operate the 4WD system and freewheeling hubs.
You always need to prepare carefully for any travel in remote country. Do not overload roof racks and always plan fuel usage. Fill up with petrol whenever you get the opportunity, because petrol stations in remote towns may not always be open.
There are many reputable 4WD guides available. The Royal Automobile Association (RAA) in Adelaide is a good place to visit before you set off.
See this explorer's paradise in style and let a guide do all the driving. Camp out in "million-star" accommodation or relax in the comfort of a resort.
4WD hire is available in Adelaide, Port Augusta, Coober Pedy and Alice Springs.

More than 60 percent of 12th graders leave high school without the advanced reading and writing skills needed for college.
That's according to a newly released report from the Alliance for Excellent Education.
The report notes that while the share of jobs in the United States that require postsecondary education has increased from 28 percent to 60 percent in the 1970s, the literacy performance of 17-year-olds has remained the same. A
And in New Mexico, 32 percent of 8th graders lack even partial mastery of grade-level knowledge and skills — that's more than the 25 percent average nationwide according to 2011 National Assessment of Education Progress scores. And the report shows that only 21 percent of New Mexico 8th grade students are considered proficient, with one percent considered advanced.
According to the state Public Education Department's 2011 School Grading Report, Los Alamos High School received a "B" or 12.4 out of 15 points for "Career and College Readiness."
That grades the school on whether student are prepared for what's after high school and have taken with college entrance exams, dual credit course work and course work leading to vocational training.

I truly fell in love with this piece when I saw it! I thought it was beautiful the way it was and I left it in the studio for a few weeks hoping someone would take it home. Throughout that short period of time I imagined it painted and knew exactly what I wanted to do.
Almost instantly after the work began people started taking notice. It could also be that it was right in front of the studio and everyone could now see it with the bay door open. (planned of course!) Anyway, I decided to put French chartreuse on the inside and built a couple of removable shelves. It sold before it made it into the shoppe to someone that loved it as much as me. It's great when that happens! That;s actually the whole premise of the studio.
Make sure you check out the 'Before and After" album on our facebook page and see the before and the inside!

CUBES: Children's Use of the Built Environment for Physical Activity Study.
ResearchMy research interests are to better understand how physical space and design (the "built environment") affect and influence human health, especially energy balance and chronic disease, among both children and adults. My research has involved large database studies, survey studies, as well as clinical studies, and I am currently the principal investigator on an NIH patient-oriented career development award (1K23HL103841-01) that incorporates a clinical intervention assessing how adolescents use the built environment for daily physical activity. My work is multidisciplinary and seeks to foster collaboration among health researchers and design professionals such as architects and urban planners.
Pediatrician Nicolas Oreskovic, MD, MPH, and researcher Alison Hoppin, MD, a pediatric gastroenterologist offer tips to counter "globesity."
Childhood obesity continues to be a major public health problem, and national trends indicate insufficient and declining levels of physical activity in children and adolscents. The design of buildings and neighborhoods, known collectively as the built environment, has the potential to influence physical activity.

Venice hotels
What travelers to Venice are saying
Viable Venice
Venice may be a (slowly) sinking city, but your heart will do exactly the opposite when you clap eyes on the iconic and picturesque city of lurve. Venetians are quintessentially passionate, with the raison d'etre (or should we say: 'ragionare per l'essere')of the Venetian being to suck as much life, beauty, art and culture out of every day in their (perhaps temporary) floating home.
Venice is a city of makers – whether its residents are making glass, shoes, handbags, art, poetry, music or love, it's as though the possibility that their beloved city will not be around forever drives them to leave their mark in another way. Which is why, along with being architecturally beautiful, Venice is a city of beautiful things.
Venetian lace, exquisitely blown glass, jewellery, fashion and shoes (oh, the shoes!) line the winding and maze-like calli (alleyways), and while tourism has left its mark in the form of some incredibly gaudy souvenir items, it's still possible to find quality, locally made and traditional wares.
There's really no need to visit gallery after gallery; the city itself is art. Still, with the highest concentration of artistic masterpiece per square kilometre, we'd recommend popping into a few. Museums such as the Punta della Dogana or the Naval History Museum are definitely worth a visit.
Set around the famous St Mark's Square (where you'll find an alarming number of bold pigeons), you're free to wander by foot or take a gondola in any direction across the Grand Canal – including under the Bridge of Sighs, with its romantic present but sad and sinister past. Take in the most impressive structures at the Doge's Palace (Palazzo Ducale), Campanile di San Marco Lido Island when the city becomes too much.
Venice's Top 10
10. La Fenice Opera HouseSomething to look at for the under-60s, something to buy tickets to for the over-60s.
5. Campanile Bell TowerSmack bang in St Mark's Square. You won't miss it. Big crowds and a few suicide attempts, so keep an eye out for crazies and an ear out for 'Heads!'
9.Gallerie dell' AccademiaThe official Venice Art Museum. They know their stuff and have some serious high art swagger.
4. Doge's PalaceIt's a PALACE! Dress up as royalty and take the guided tour. Or, hey, you could just cruise around and pose for photos.
8. Scuola Grande di San Roccoand Frari Church These two attractions are next-door neighbours. So while you're there…
3. The Grand Canal You can't miss it, really, but make sure to take it in. Get a coffee and gaze or succumb to the tourist inside and grab a gondola complete with operatic gondolier (that's the driver-person).
7. Ca' Rezzonico Indulge your inner voyeur checking out these mansions along the Grand Canal. The Italian, classy and old-world version of MTV Cribs minus the irritating b-graders.
2. St Mark's BasilicaWho is this Mark? And why does he get his name on everything? Non-Catholics can get educated in one of Italy's best churches.
6. Rialto Bridge and MarketIt's beautiful and all, but the real fun is looking over and listening in on people's conversations as they float past underneath you.
1. St Mark's SquareObvious, but a must-see. For a slightly different view, sneak out in the early morning for a rare sight – an empty St Mark's Square (except for the pigeons)!

Venice LocalMurano Island
This is where you'll find many of Venice's best glassblowers, and it's a very cute place to wander around. Explore the Museo Vetrario (glass museum) solo or take a tour, including a look at the Canale San Donato. Here you'll see art displays and learn about the history and processes of glass blowing. If you get a chance, stop at one of the glassblower's stores and watch the mesmerising process – if you're lucky, you might even get to try it yourself.
The island is also home to the Basilica dei Santi Maria e Donato, one of the city's most famous churches, and its little sister Chiesa di San Pietro Martire. There's also a load of shopping to be done (and not just for glass!) or you could settle in for some pasta, prosecco and people watching at one of the many cafés or restaurants.
Lido is essentially the beach of Venice. It was once just an entry point into the city but has since grown into a bit of a tourist hub. It's easy to see why when there are so many activities available from golf, tennis and horse-riding to clay-pigeon shooting (after spending some time in St Mark's Square trying to protect your lunch from the sky-rats, you'll wish they were the real thing).
While you're here, visit the Church of San Nicolò and marvel at how old it is. After a bit of ghost-hunting in the church, take a stroll down the Lungomare D'Annunzio to take in the beach views and marvel at the sleek, chic local fashion.
This is a fairly small district, but it's nice and close to the city centre – just off the Grand Canal. Marked by a multitude of secretive little lanes and alleyways, getting lost is practically compulsory.
San Polo is also home to the Rialto Bridge and the Rialto Markets, both of which you're sure to stumble across while you're circling around trying to found your way out of those pesky little lanes. There's also the Casa di Goldoni, home of the famous playwright Goldoni, the Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari and the Scuola Grande di San Rocco.
Venice Eat & Drink
La Zucca Literally means The Pumpkin, and you can tell that from the pumpkin-themed artworks. Good, traditional grub.
Vino Vino Any restaurant that feels the need to have the word 'vino' not just once, but twice in its name is OK by us. The pick of the bunch in a very expensive area, it's near the La Fenice opera house.
Ostaria al Garanghelo Fresh pasta or bigger meals and tasting plates to share. Good value for money.
Brek Great option for travellers on a budget. Self-service, canteen-style but excellent hearty food and a cool place to meet other backpackers.
Osteria San Marco Right on St Mark's Square so it's a bit pricey, but a great place to sample traditional local food.
Ae Oche This is a local chain of pizza restaurants. Don't be put off by the American-style décor, it has a massive range of fairly good pizzas (some with chips on top!). Popular with Venice's student population.
Birraria La Corte: Popular with the locals, and easily the best pizza in town.
I Figli delle Stelle New, posh and with some of the best views in town. Featuring food from each region in Italy.
Osteria – Enoteca Ai Artisti Great little wine bar that serves a delicious drop and lovely snacks from the bar menu. Campo San Barnaba
Bar dei Tedeschi Huge salads and buckets of fresh seafood or pasta. Extremely cheap wine to keep you entertained.
Venice Events
St. Mark's Square spills over with friendly freaks in Commedia del Arte masks and costumes. Featuring masked balls and public parades, the Carnevale takes in February, during the 10 days leading up to Shrove Tuesday (which is the day before the beginning of Lent, for those who need a brush-up on their Catholic feast days).
The Festa della Sensa celebrates the relationship between Venice and the sea (like any good Italian love affair, it's a complex, passionate and tempestuous one). It involves a procession of boats led by the mayor, who throws a wreath into the waves. The event follows Ascension Day in May.
The Vogalong is a huge rowing event in May or June. Thousands of participants row around a 30km course, reclaiming the lagoon from motorised boats.
The religious celebrations of Festa del Redentore are held on the third Sunday of July. The night before is a great party with feasting followed by fireworks and a gondola regatta.
The Biennale started as an art show every two years, and has grown to become a major player on the Venice festival circuit, covering a huge range of events including the Venice Film Festival in September.
When To Go
Winter (November to February) sees chilly temperatures of 3-8°C (37-46°F), and while it's a much quieter time to see the city, it's not particularly pleasant riding around in a gondola with hypothermia.
Spring (March to May) sees the mercury rising, with temperatures from 10-21°C (46-70°F). It's warm and quite sunny, and you may just beat the tourist rush.
Summer (June to August) gets nice and steamy, with temperatures from 17-27°C (63-81°F) and very high humidity levels. Summer is busy across Europe and Italy in particular, so prepare for crowds.
Autumn (September to October) is mostly crisp and clear with temperatures of 16-19°C (61-66°F). With the summer crowds dissipating, this can be the perfect time to explore Venice.
What To Miss
Tourist restaurants in Venice are over-priced for food you'd often eat at home. Make the most of Venice with pizza, pasta and anti-pasto, but watch out for extra charges thrown in, like sitting down (instead of snacking at the bar) or very high corkage fees.
Solo gondola rides: If you're all alone on your trip, consider bunking with another solo tourist for your gondola ride. Sure, you may feel fine riding solo at first, but once the love song starts up and you spy all the other loved-up couples in their cosy boats, your gondola's going to start feeling pretty un-cosy and you'll going to want to throw that warbling fool overboard. Just sayin'.
If you want to avoid the throngs of tourists, avoid the two main strips: Strada Nuova and Scalzi Bridge. Sure, have a look and a wander, but it's much nicer to explore the backstreets.
Getting Around
Water Buses & Water Taxis: Buses are just as convenient and a lot cheaper than taxis. You can buy a card for unlimited rides or just get a ticket when you get on. Taxis are more expensive but nice for a private trip. Both are safe.
Traghetto: This is the cheap version of a proper gondola ride. You'll usually stand for a few minutes, but it's a good way to tick the gondola ride off your to-do list if you don't have a lover to sit and laze with.
Walk: The best, cheapest option for exploring. Be careful and get a bus home late at night.
Venice Information
Located on the northeastern part of Italy, Venice is a city of over 150 canals and 400 bridges connecting 116 scattered islands, a unique destination which was once the trading post between east and west. Venice was called La Serenissima or "most serene", as this city definitely looks calm afloat in the Venetian lagoon along the Adriatic Sea.
And yet with this calm air around her, the city used to be Christianity's strong fortress in the time of the Crusades. And being a major trading port in the bygone ages, there are remnants of east and west influences seen around the city's architecture which is a mixed bag of Byzantine, Renaissance and Gothic styles.
They say that Venice continues to sink especially when the occasional high tides sweep the whole city. And add to this, the touristy crowds can be quite a dampener. But this romantic city has not lost its charm altogether. Venice still ranks as one of the best holiday destinations for where else can drifting away in a fancy gondola and passing by antiquated bridges and buildings is the norm and not a novelty?
Tourists flock to Venice to sample the Italian's city's renowned romance and beauty - which can seem quite familiar on arrival - since the Italian cityhas been used as a setting for films and photographs a multitude of times over the years. Venice offers beautiful piazza, elegant buildings and Venetian palaces aplenty, and is one of the most popular destinations in the world for honeymooners enjoying a romantic break, or for tourists on a cultural and sightseeing holiday. On a trip to Venice be prepared for crowds during the high season which runs from July to September - and even out of these times Venice is likely to be reasonably full of admirers.
Venice is laid out in a maze style, the centre of which is divided into six quarters. The main artery is the Grand Canal which passes through all the six districts. Should you get tired of riding gondolas, opt for the pedestrian pathways through the three bridges from the station, Rialto and Accademia.
St. Mark's Square is the most popular landmark of Venice next to the Grand Canal. This is the heart of the city from which stands the Basilica di San Marco and Palazzo Ducale. The Basilica is a daunting figure in the Venetian skyline with its domes and arches jutting in and out. Maritime treasures are on display inside and the altar is laden with gold (apart from the golden mosaics above the doorways) and precious jewels. The square is a jampacked promenade with cafes filled to the brim and pigeons joining in the fray!
The city still has a few more interesting attractions on offer. Another famous area is Rialto in which the bulk of commercial activities continues to flow. Basilica dei Frari holds the burial grounds of famed Venetians Antonio Canova and Titian. It also has a good range of art pieces adorning the church's interiors. To sample more of Venice's art, visit the Peggy Guggenheim collection inside Palazzo Venier dei Leoni and the Academia Gallery as well.
Further outings beyond the tourist path will lead to Murano and Burano islands. You can watch the local artesans here as they go about creating exquisite glass beads, baubles and fancy lace crafts.
The Basilica di San Marco is a magnificent stone structure featuring 12th Century marble floors and 11th-15th Century mosaic domes with millions of glass tiles glittering in the sky. Legend has it that St Mark was smuggled into Venice in 878, a story which is depicted in the mosaics on the left of the church's façade - dated 1270. In order to gain admittance to this attraction no short skirts, bare shoulders or large rucksacks are allowed. The waiting time for this attraction can be long so it is recommended to buy a reservation ticket. The basilica is free to enter but there is a museum upstairs as well as the high altar and treasury which charge a small fee.
The Peggy Gugehnheim Collection is a an inspired collection of the works of well known and less well known contemporary artists including Jackson Pollack, Max Ernst (her former husband), Picasso, Kandinsky, Klee and Dali. Also located here are works by Moore, Giacometti and Arp, as well as Venice's own Emilio Vedova in the Sculpture Garden, where Peggy is buried alongside her pet dogs. There is also a café and bookstore located here. The collection is housed in the Palazzo Venier dei Leoni - Peggy Guggenheim's exquisite palatial home.
The School of St Roch features one of the finest collections of 14th to 18th Century art in the world. There are 50 Tintoretto's painted between 1575 and 1587, as well as a magnificent ceiling panel for the School or 'Scuola'. A spectacular staircase takes visitors to the Sala Grande Superiore - where Tintoretto painted scenes from the Old Testament on the ceilings. Other featured works include those of Titian, Giorgione and Tiepolo, as well as a breathtaking Renaissance façade by Scarpagnino.
La Museo Ebraico and the 'Jewish Ghetto of Venice' feature five synagogues, and there are plenty of restaurants and shops in the vicinity. During the 16th to 18th Centuries, Jewish artisans and lenders kept Venice's commercial centres well stocked during the daytime, but at night they were restricted to the Ghetto Nuovo (Jewish Ghetto).
The Gallerie Dell'Accademia contains works of art dating from the 14th to the 18th Century, including Carpaccio's 'Crucifixion and Glorification of the Ten Thousand Martyrs of Mount Ararat', Bellini's 'Madonna and Child' and Tintoretto's 'Creation of the Animals', as well as many other dramatic classical paintings.
Doge's Palace is located in San Marco Square and has an excellent guided tour which is termed the 'Secret Itinerary', taking visitors around the parts of the palace in which the administration worked. Casanova's jail can also be seen, and the impressive structure of the roof which is 500 years old.
The Glass Museum, located on the isle of Murano, Goldoni's House (Venetian playwright), the Lace Museum and the Leonardo da Vinci Exhibition are other attractions worth visiting during a stay in Venice.
Carnival of Venice in February paints the town red as merry-making fills the whole city with parades, magic shows, puppeteers and masquerade balls attended by people from all parts of the world dressed in elegant costumes. The Feast Day of The Redeemer is a religious festival in July commemorating the lives felled during the plague that hit the city in the Middle Ages.
The canals of Venice have seen quite a few regattas here and there. The biggest one is Historical Regatta, a long procession of colourful gondolas kicking off on the first Sunday of September. This celebrates one of the Venetian victories in the early days, its conquest over Cyprus.
The Voga Longa, the annual equivalent of a marathon on water rather than land, is held in May. Competitors need to row 20 miles in less than three and a half hours in order to receive a certificate at the finish line. All manner of vessels are invited to take part - and it's not unknown for teams to take over ten hours to complete the race.
The Regata 'Storica' or Historical Fleet Event is held in September. This impressive regatta showcases nearly one hundred types of historical Venetian boats from replicas of Roman and Medieval vessels to huge oarships. The boats are towed along Canal Grande, by small boats. Visitors can watch the races which include riding solo in brightly coloured gondolini.
The Carnevale takes place in the Piazza San Marco during February and is the largest masked ball in Europe. Visitors from all over the world turn up in ornate costumes to join in the celebrations.
The Venice International Film Festival takes place in August/September along the Lido esplanade and is a major draw, attracting the jet set from all over the world.
Leisure and Recreation
Those who love to shop will find many places selling beautifully crafted leather goods, handmade paper and fine velvet scarves - as well as Venetian glass in the Atelier Marega quarter of the city. Venice is also renowned for its mask-making and unique costumes which make excellent souvenirs, and it's quite possible to watch the masks being painted and prepared. The majority of city shops close for an extended lunch - and if you have had a busy day shopping and sightseeing then this could be the perfect time to pop back to your hotel for a siesta, after all 'when in Rome', or should it be 'when in Venice'.
Take a trip to the islands if time permits, especially those of Murano, Burano and Torcello. Boats operate a frequent service - but there may be long queues. Burano is a highly picturesque isle with pastel coloured houses and Torcello is a tranquil experience, and a welcome break from bustling Venice.
Eating 'al fresco' in San Marco Square is a highly recommended idea for a night out, where there are a number of restaurants serving up classical Italian food.
Venice isn't the place to head for if you enjoy a lively night life - most locals are in bed by around 9pm. However there are a few bars just north of the Ghetto Nuove Bridge which stay open until late and the cafes and bars on C. Santa Margharita cater for the local University students.
Winter (November to February) 3-8°C; the city is quieter with temperatures generally fairly mild but is prone to flooding and cold winds.
- Spring (March to May) 5 - 21°C; warm and quite sunny
- Summer (June to August) 17 - 27°C; still pleasant but can reach high humidity levels with some thunderstorms
- Fall (September to October) 16 - 19°C; weather mild and generally good
The summer can get very hot and humid in Venice - plus it's the height of the tourist season, so the best time to pay a visit is Spring or Autumn, when temperatures average at around 5-15 o C. During the winter it can get very cold with temperatures dropping to below freezing at times. Also, in Venice flooding has become more and more common, and this can happen many times a year, when the squares and streets become inaccessible. Sirens sound to alert residents that the city is about to flood - and its possible to get maps which will direct you to higher routes, as well as the footpaths which have walkways to take you to dryer areas.
More Info On Getting Around
The closest airport is Marco Polo Airport which is 16 miles from the city, and has a bus connection to the Piazzale Roma. The airport has a shuttle service - or travellers can opt for the water bus which takes 75 minutes to San Marco. If money is no problem then the water taxis can get you to Venice centre in around 30 minutes.
The main form of transport in Venice is of course boat - commonly by a 'vaporetta', or water bus, which make scheduled stops, just like a normal bus. During a stay in Venice it's almost compulsory to hire a gondola - usually as a one-off - because a gondolier's services do not come cheap. For a reasonably hefty fee he will serenade you as he directs the gondola around the myriad waterways. The only other way to get around Venice is on foot, since cars are banned right across the city. For many tourists the lack of traffic makes a welcome break from the noise and pollution of everyday life.
Top 6 Free Things to Do
The Rialto Market and the Rialto Bridge on San Polo is a must see, and shoppers at the market will find that things cost considerably less here than in the pricey, touristy Piazza San Marco. The bridge is an iconic structure in Venice, and dates back more than 800 years. The bridge which can be seen today was finished in 1591.
The Madonna dell'Orto - otherwise known as the Tintoretto Church, was dedicated to St Christopher which is why a splendid statue of the saint stands over the main door. The beautiful church contains numerous works by Tintoretto, who was supposed to have started decorating as penance for insulting a doge.
La Zecca or the 'Mint' is where Venice's gold ducats (later zucchini) were coined. It is now home to the Civic Library. Located on Piazzeta San Marco, its open 10am until 7pm, Monday to Saturday.
La Pieta is a church which is renowned for its musical past. Antonio Vivaldi was the violin and choir master in the 18th century, and he wrote some of his best works for his young students here. The church is open for services at 6.30pm on Saturday, and is located in the Castello district.
The Monument to Bartolomeo Colleoni (dated 1488) is also found in the Castello district. Colleoni was a soldier who would only leave a legacy to the Republic, if a statue of him were erected in St Mark's Square. Instead the Venetian rulers decided to put his impressive statue in front of the Scuola de San Marco.
San Giorgio Maggiore is a church which was built by Palladio. Its white Corinthian columns and arches are beautiful and well worth seeing, and there are some excellent works of art here, such as the Adoration of the Shepherds, by Jacopo Bassano as well as two huge paintings by Tintoretto.
Money and Costs
Tipping is not generally expected in Venice since a service charge is usually included in the bill - of around a generous 20%. Money should always be changed in a bank while on holiday in Venice, since other exchanges rates will be high. The best time to visit Venice is out of tourist season when the price of accommodation is far cheaper, sometimes up to 40% cheaper - plus the weather is just right for sightseeing.
Rialto and Piazza San Marco are expensive areas to eat out in - for good budget meals Venice's Dorsoduro quarter is the place to head for, plus, it's where the locals eat.
The unit of currency in Venice is the Euro, as it is in most other European countries.

The Winchester Dam was built in November 1890 and is in the National Register of Historical Places. Constructed from large timber cribs, the dam was originally built 4 feet high and in 1907 the dam was raised to sixteen feet. Winchester Dam provided water and electricity for the town of Roseburg until 1923. The Winchester Dam was built as a hydro-power facility for Douglas County. The damn no longer generates power, but now has a viewer-friendly fish ladder remodeled in 2004.

OGDENSBURG - A second Chinese university may join businessman James Ma in his enhanced plans to establish an English-as-a-second-language school at the former Academy at Ivy Ridge in the town of Oswegatchie.
We are still working with Qingdao University, Mr. Ma said Thursday in an email transmission from his native China. Besides, there is another university in Shanghai showing great interest to collaborate with us. We are getting positive progress with them, too.
Mr. Ma and officials from state-run Qingdao University, both from Chinas Shangdong Province, and the Chinese government are still negotiating an agreement where his proposed school would co-exist with the universitys U.S. campus.
We are still planning for a fall 2013 opening, Mr. Ma said.
A delegation of administrators from Qingdao University came here in July to tour the 238-acre campus of the former reform school located west of the city on Route 37. Mr. Ma bought the campus in 2011 for $1.5 million. It is likely that a similar group from the university in Shanghai, which he declined to identify Thursday, will do the same.
And such a visit could possibly be a sign of a done deal.
We will try to reach an agreement before they come for a visit, Mr. Ma said. We are still discussing how the partnership would be.
The Qingdao University administrators were impressed with what they saw here in July and told government officials as much in a report to them earlier this fall. Mr. Ma, who also has a residence in the town of Oswegatchie, had a follow-up meeting with them in China.
Mr. Ma has made other investments in the town and the city. He has plans for them all that are tied to the school and said he is still working on them. He wants to develop a 20-home subdivision on 102 acres of land that he owns near the campus, north of Route 37 off of Lee Road.
The homes would be for his Chinese friends who want a second residence in the United States, employees of the school, visiting parents of the students there and anyone who wants to buy.
Also on Route 37, Mr. Ma owns the former United Helpers Cedars Nursing Home and plans to possibly convert it to a hotel. He has said he has not ruled out other possible uses.
Mr. Ma also owns the former Sholettes Steak and Ale restaurant at 1000 Linden St., Ogdensburg, where he plans to open an authentic Chinese restaurant and specialty shops.
Ivy Ridge closed in 2009. Before Ivy Ridge operated there, the campus housed Mater Dei College.
Mr. Ma anticipates spending $2 million on renovations to the campus.

With crucial elections approaching and the drawdown of foreign troops imminent, Afghanistan's future —and its health— are anything but certain. Over the past decade, Afghanistan has been pulled in many directions at once, not all of them good.
It is still plagued by insecurity and poor governance, and it ranks distressingly low in many categories of the UN's human development index, such as infant mortality. At the same time, however, access to both education and health care, particularly for girls and women, has increased exponentially, and opportunities exist now that past generations could not have imagined. In some areas, people are rushing into tomorrow at breakneck speed; in others, age-old cultural traditions dictate much of life. There are also some very big questions about what will happen after this April's presidential elections, and after the US military completes a partial or full withdrawal of forces over the next year.
As a medical organization, MSF sees this through the prism of access to health care. Having returned to Afghanistan in 2009 after a five-year absence that followed the murder of five MSF staff members in the country's interior, the organization now runs a hospital and other programs in Kabul, the capital; a trauma center in Kunduz, one of the largest cities in the north; a full service hospital in Lashkar Gah, in long-embattled Helmand province; and a maternity program in Khost, the capital of a province of the same name that borders Pakistan.
In recent months, our teams in the country carried out extensive surveys, asking people about their medical needs and their access to medical care. Herewith, along with a selection of striking images from Afghanistan, we present some of the findings, some information about MSF's work, and some words from Afghans themselves.
Excerpts from testimony given to MSF researchers by a 50-year-old farmer from Kapisa Province
"There is no sleep in my village. We experience harassment from every side. Each night helicopters and planes circle overhead. There are constant roadblocks, checkpoints, and attacks. Sitting or resting, we live in fear, from everyone. We are all affected, with two or three people killed, injured, or traumatized in every home.
I am a farmer; we harvest pomegranates. But when my wife and I go to our crops in our fields, we are in danger. Always at risk, always afraid.
It is too insecure to go out at night. So we can't bring someone to the doctor at night, even if their sickness or injury is serious. We can't drive at night, as then all of us would be killed on the road. So, we prefer if they die quickly rather than suffer through the night only to die the next day on the way. This is the reality.
In our village there are no public doctors, and there is no big public hospital in our district either. There is a public hospital at the provincial level, but there are no female doctors. What good is that to our women when our culture means they have to be seen by a female doctor for certain problems?
It's normal because we are used to this. All this violence. But it is no life, we are just existing. Surviving the insecurity—which is the mother of all our problems."

By TERRY WILLISSun Advocate reporter
Close but no cigar was the outcome in two conference games over the weekend for the CEU Lady Eagles.
On Friday Jan. 16 they fell just short against Salt Lake Community College going down 60-57 to the Lady Bruins.
Then in Ephraim on Saturday they dropped another close game to Snow with the final score, Snow 79, CEU 73.
Welcome to Salt Lake City. On Friday night, CEU was poised to steal one away when with 40 seconds left, a phantom foul call in the back court gave SLCC the opportunity to convert much needed free throws.
A last second shot attempt by CEU missed with an obvious no call foul on the attempt.
The Eagles grabbed 25 offensive rebounds, but fell behind in free throw attempts 14 to 25. Former Emery High star Rachel Rasmussen led the Golden Eagles with 11 points. Libby Alon put together another strong performance with 10 points. Kaylie Robison was also in double digits with 10 points and snapped up nine rebounds.
Despite the loss Coach Paur was still optimistic about Saturday's game and how the team could rebound back and gain a much needed road and first conference win. He felt his team played well but missed out on the opportunity to come out on top.
On Saturday Jan. 17 the Lady Golden Eagles trailed by eight early in the game with foul trouble and turnovers. With nine minutes left in the first half, the game began to change in favor of CEU. There was a lot of fast play as both teams committed many turnovers. Halftime score tied at 39.
A slow start of the second half got the Eagles in trouble down by nine points.
At the 9:46 mark it was Snow 60 CEU 51. Just as in the first half CEU made a move and cut the lead to a point.
In the end, CEU had a chance to win, but Snow came out on top. Snow improves to 3 - 0, CEU drops to 0 - 4 in conference play.
CEU will take on CNCC over in Rangely this weekend on Saturday.

Why do we call it masechet Beitza now, and not masechet Yom Tov, as was apparently once common? Unlike the parshiot, which are named after their first words, masechtot are all named after topics, except Beitza. This is particularly odd considering that today, many people actually call it "Bei'a" to avoid a word not appropriate for mixed company. So why not just call it "Yom Tov"?
See the beginning of Rabbenu Chananel on Masseches Beitzah, where he - or whomever copied the manuscript the printed text is based on - began it with the following rhyming ditty:
אתחיל מסכת ביצה בעזרת גדול העיצה
Maybe because "Yom Tov" just sounds like too generic a name? There are, after all, several other masechtos that discuss, and/or are named for, specific Yamim Tovim.
One of the reasons we call the Mesechta - Beia and not Beitza in order to avoid any errors. The Gemara in Sanhedrin 5: brings a story how one time Rebbe came to a city and the people were kneading their doughs in Tumah. They explained that at one point a Talmid came and said that water of Betzayim does not allow it to become Tomei. After investigating it turned out that this Talmid said water of Betzayim - meaning water of eggs - and the people of the town took it to mean water from the pond.

NEWPORT–After a Friday night full of rain, the heavy winds that swirled across the Kingdom dried out the field at North Country Union High School, allowing the Falcon baseball team to play host to the Burlington Seahorses on Saturday morning.
The Falcons' bats came alive over the weekend, as they plated nine runs, but Burlington was two runs better, topping the maroon and white 11-9 for the win.
"Today we were a much better team defensively than the other day," said NCU Coach Brian Bonvechio in reference to Thursday's 14-1 loss to Vergennes.
"We don't have the kind of pitchers that are going to strike out a ton of guys, so we have to be solid defensively. So, up until the seventh, when we had a little misplay, we played pretty well."
Joel Lamarche went 2 2/3's, striking out 2 and walking 6 for the now 0-3 Falcons.
Austin Pine went five innings, with 3 K's and 5 walks for Burlington.
Shane Goodell took the loss, while Holden Ackerman earned the win.
Next up is a trip to South Burlington to face Rice on Wednesday at 4:30.
For the full story, see the Express on Monday 4-22-13.
