Office of Residence Life Mission Statement
St. Augustine believed you learn the most while living in community with others. Living in community provides students with opportunities to learn about themselves, learn from others, and develop lifelong friendships. Resident students who call Merrimack their home away from home live in a variety of settings, ranging from traditional double/triple floors, to suites, townhouses, and apartments. Each environment provides residents with the opportunity to grow personally and as a community. Members of the Residence Life Staff are present to help students navigate through this experience, and to see that it is as fulfilling as possible. Leadership development activities are provided through the Resident Advisor program. Social, educational, and spiritual programs are designed to connect students to each other and provide a venue for learning outside of the classroom. The department also oversese student room selection and placement, and works with residents to address conflict with each other should it arise. The Residence Life staff works closely with other offices and departments on campus and are able to serve as a resource to all students.
Residence Life Goals
The residential experience compliments the academic mission of Merrimack College.
- Residents should live in a community where respect and civility are preserved.
- Residents should expect to be active participants in maintaining standards of respect in their living area and should confront problems within the community.
- Educational programs and intellectual engagement, social activities, leadership and service opportunities are provided in the residential living areas can greatly impact a student's whole self.
- Students are responsible for their actions and being aware of policies and student conduct system procedures should help to educate students about responsibility to community.
- Learning to be a member of a respectful residential community while at Merrimack will help students become engaged citizens.
Individual difference and diversity make our living communities richer and an understanding of those differences should be encouraged and celebrated. Collaborating with students is vital to the decision making process. To insure that student input is valued, students have a voice in their residential community through Class Council and the Student Government Association.
Residence Life Staff
The Resident Advisor staff is a group of students who have been carefully selected and trained to assist their peers and support each residence area. These individuals also coordinate activities (social and educational) for the community throughout the year. The professional staff within the Residence Life Office directly supervises the student Residence Life staff. Meet the staff.
Community Living
Merrimack houses students in a variety of community living arrangements. Learning to live with others in a diverse residential community is one of the best educational opportunities offered by our housing system. We are a small community and each person's attitude, actions, and words have a profound impact on our lives and sense of well being and belonging. In all aspects of life at Merrimack, students are in contact with people who are both different from and like them. Each person brings something valuable to our community, and we believe that each individual has the right to be unique, to be heard, to be understood, to be accepted and respected. This may take patience and time. It may take rethinking some old thoughts and ideas. It will certainly require an open and active mind, and it will take sensitivity to other's needs and comforts. A place exists for everyone in our community. We hope that students will find satisfaction in helping others around them to become themselves.
Maintenance Concerns
The Physical Plant Department is responsible for power or plumbing failures, as well as any general repairs. Any damage or malfunction in a student room or common area should be reported immediately to Physical Plant by calling the 5-FIX line (978-837-5349). For emergency maintenance during the weekends or evenings, please contact Police Services. Any cable issues call 1-888-737-8361. Laundry room issues can be fixed by going on-line, http://www.macgray.com/laundrylinx/ using the password "mcwarriors". You can also utilize Laundry View to see how many machines are currently available in your (or another) residence hall.
Health Forms
All residents are required by law to file an up to date physical examination and medical history form with Hamel Health Center.
The cleaning of the interiors (bedroom, bathroom, and other common spaces) in suites, townhouses, and apartments is the responsibility of each resident. All common areas within traditional residence halls are cleaned on a regular basis by the custodial staff. Lounges, hallways, and bathrooms should be kept as clean as possible by residents as well.
During Winter Break, all bathrooms in suites, apartments, and townhouses will be cleaned by the housekeeping staff, unless otherwise communicated by the residents. Please remove all personal belongings from the bathroom to allow the housekeeping staff to thoroughly clean the bathroom.
Students may not lend or duplicate Merrimack College identification cards. Students should carry their IDs with them at all times. Students may replace a lost card at the Mack Card office located on the second floor of the McQuade library.
Personal Safety
It is always advisable to employ safety precautions. Avoid walking alone. Be sure to lock the door to your room at all times. Report any suspicious persons on campus immediately to Police Services. Emergency phones are located strategically around campus; picking up the receiver of one of these phones will connect you directly with the Police Services dispatcher. In the event you lose your room key or College ID, please report the loss immediately.
Community Standards
In a community, people must be aware that some lifestyle choices can have a negative impact upon the health and well-being of others.
For the complete list of College and Residence Life policies, please review the student handbook. Violators of these policies who come to the attention of the Residence Life staff or other members of the residential community will be confronted. Residence Life staff members are instructed to report any violations to the appropriate administrative official for further action.
Room and Board Rates
The Board of Trustees has approved the room and board rates for the 2014-2015 academic year. The College continues to work diligently to enhance student services and provide you with the best overall residential experience possible.
Please refer to the Bursar's office page for the room & board rates for 2014-2015. Click here to view the room and board rates for the 2014-2015 academic year.
Petition for Release/Residency Agreement
All students who have selected and have been assigned housing for the 2013-2014 academic year are required to complete the Residency Agreement, which is available on this website as well as on myMack.
Click here to download the 2013-2014 Residency Agreement
Students who have completed their Residency Agreement and subsequently decide not to live on campus must submit the Petition for Release from Merrimack College Residency Agreement form, which is available on this website as well as on myMack.

The Impact of Vitamin D Status on in Vitro Fertilization (IVF) Outcomes

- How to Read a Study Record
Infertility is a common and psychologically devastating problem for 20% of Canadian couples. Approximately, 20% of infertile couples are diagnosed with unexplained infertility and left without an explanation for their inability to have a baby. Pathological uterine receptivity and embryo implantation are hypothesized mechanisms underlying sub-fertility in these couples. Embryo implantation requires a complicated sequence of events involving the differentiation of endometrial cells to attain uterine receptivity and the synchronized interaction between maternal and embryonic tissues. Vitamin D has been hypothesized to play a role in this poorly understood process. Vitamin D is a known regulator of signal transduction pathways involved in embryo implantation and its receptors are involved in calcium-regulation in various reproductive tissues including, the ovary, uterus, and placenta. In Canada, the prevalence of Vitamin D insufficiency is approximately 34-50%. The goal of the proposed study is to determine the prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency in an infertile population and whether this prevalence is higher than in average Canadian reproductive age women. More importantly, we will investigate whether vitamin D insufficiency in our infertile population translates to impaired implantation and reduced clinical pregnancy rates. Insight into vitamin D's role in reproduction is essential not only to provide scientific understanding of the mechanism underlying embryo implantation, but also because vitamin D supplementation could provide an easy and safe means of treating infertility.

In her book, "The Everglades: River of Grass," Marjorie Stoneman Douglas wrote: "There are no other Everglades in the world. They are, they have always been, one of the unique regions of the earth..."
Those opening words from Douglas' seminal work capture the uniqueness of the ecosystem and also could be used to characterize the author herself, who fought so hard to protect her "River of Grass."
In the 1950s, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers rose to the top of her list of enemies. In an effort to minimize seasonal flooding on what is now agricultural land, the Corps built a complex system of canals, levees and pump stations to protect what is now agricultural land and real estate.
In 2,000 the government launched what is now the largest restoration project in history to restore the natural flow of water in the Everglades. And this week the effort was given a major boost when the nation's largest producer of sugar cane announced it was selling two massive tracts of land to the state of Florida and going out of business.
In one of the largest conservation efforts in U.S. history, the nation's top sugar producer agreed to halt production and sell its Florida crop land. The $1.7 billion deal between U.S. Sugar Corporation and the State of Florida retires nearly 300 square miles of sugar production back into Everglades environmental protection.
Gov. Charlie Crist, R – Florida: "I can envision no better gift to the Everglades, the people of Florida, and the people of America, as well as our planet, than to place in public ownership this missing link that represents the key to true restoration. Thanks to U.S. Sugar Corporation, we have a strategy to acquire almost 187,000 acres of land. That's almost 300 square miles."
U.S. Sugar will farm the 187,000 acres for six more years before the State of Florida takes possession and begins to protect the land from development and sugar production. U.S. Sugar Corporation currently produces 700,000 tons of cane sugar per year and accounts for 10% of the entire domestic sugar production.
More than 1,700 U.S. Sugar Corporation employees will lose their jobs as part of the landmark deal, although company executives claim stock options, severance packages, and state-based retraining will be offered. Employees and local business leaders have questioned the secret negotiations between U.S. Sugar and the State of Florida. Some local taxpayers accuse the State of "bailing out" a floundering sugar industry – a claim refuted by company executives.
U.S. Sugar points the finger at cheap foreign imports from countries like Brazil and Thailand as a major pressure on industry profits. But Florida Governor Charlie Crist emphasizes the main purpose of this week's decision was environmental and not economic.
Environmental concerns have haunted much of Southern Florida and the Everglades for years. Farms and land development have impeded the natural flow of water through the wetlands. Environmental groups blame farm fertilizers and other chemicals for causing additional damage to the region known as the "River of Grass".
Everglades restoration has developed massive funding shortfalls in recent years. In 2000, the U.S. Congress approved $7.8 billion over a 30 year span to revitalize the region. But rising real estate and construction costs have sent those figures skyrocketing.
Under the current Florida-U.S. Sugar negotiations, state officials say they'll build a network of reservoirs and marshes to filter water flowing into the Everglades. Florida environmental groups claimed victory this week but concede Everglades protection and revitalization is far from completion. The State of Florida plans further negotiations with U.S. Sugar Corporation as well as a series of individual farms throughout Southern Florida.

I don't know what a church should look like but I do know what it should feel like. It should feel like my Mother's kitchen on a cold winter morning, all comfy and warm with the smell of biscuits in the oven and everyone sitting around the table with coffee or hot coco enjoying each other's company.

All the Onions and How to Grow Themby Betty Jacobs Garlic, shallots, walking onions, potato onions, elephant garlic, leeks and chives. Complete cultural practices, including curing. Booklet.$3.95
TEXAS SUPERSWEET ONIONThis produces handsome yellow, globe-shaped jumbos and colossal. The most uniformly sweet variety weve ever eaten and always tender. Never a hot one; nor a tough, thin-layered one. We cant grow it in the North, but every May we buy a bushel from Texas to use during summer because it stores better than any other Short Day variety, often keeping right through the heat of the summer until mid-September.$3.15

Ipay a visit day-to-day some web sites and websitres to read
articles, but this weblog presents quality based articles.
Thanks so much Mani. I am learner just as you are. But if you ask for tips I cant think of antyhing more important than to observe closely the work of one's favourite artist… their technique, their colour choices and most importantly their priority (meaning what is most important to them as they paint, what they wish to convey). I try to do this all the time when I see works of artists like Milind Mulick, Joseph Zbukvic, Trevor Chamberlain and many many others.

The new wedding dresses from Spring 2013 bridal market came in all shades - white and ivory, of course, but also pink and blue and black. But most notable, we thought, was the popularity of flattering metallic hues on the runways. Gold and silver wedding dresses are close enough to white and ivory to remain traditional, but they have a modern edge that we just adore.

Northeast Aegean Islands region
The North East Aegean Islands- Greece
The North East Aegean islands consist of the islands of Samos, Chios, Ikaria, Fournoi, Oinousses, Psara, Lesbos, Agios Efstratios and Limnos.
Their natural beauty, the crystal clear waters, the traditional villages with their stoned built houses, a lot of green and forests with running waters, make them the ideal place even for the most demanding visitors that are looking for quiet holidays.
Wonderful laced beaches with clear waters, hospitable inhabitants and natural beauty will offer you unforgettable moments and memories to cherish forever.
You can visit Archaeological museums, castles, monasteries and churches that will take you back on a magical journey through time.
The North Aegean Islands were the gateway connecting the Hellenism of Minor Asia with Greece.
There is history dating back to the ancient years, and for centuries, the North Aegean Islands were centres of economic and cultural growth.
Chios is an island in the North East Aegean that is very popular with travellers from all over the world. Chios offers visitors a very picturesque and relaxing setting in which to enjoy authentic Greek island holidays.
The island of Samos, the most Eastern of the islands, is one that is perfect to visit throughout the year. Samos is well catered for tourism, and has a great selection of popular destinations where one can enjoy a range of holidays and experiences.
In the North East Aegean Islands you will find traditional but also a cosmopolitan life that all combine perfectly to play a part is giving it's visitors wonderful holidays.
Lesvos or Lesbos is the third largest island of Greece and has a long history that goes back more than 3.000 years. It has been the birthplace of famous people, such as the poets Sappho and Alcaeos, Arion the Guitarist, and Pittacus, one of the seven wise men of ancient Greece. A tradition that even continues today and gives the island that distinctive atmosphere which makes it so different from the rest.
Rich in olives and fish, the island has an economic balance rare in the Aegean and because of its relative prosperity the island is very easy for travelers to reach even in the quiet months of winter. By air, one can get to Lesvos from Athens five times a day and from Salonica seven times a week. By Ferry-boat, one can reach Lesvos every day from Piraeus, and from Salonica on a less frequent schedule.
Mytilene is the capital of the island and has a population of 30,000 people. This is about one third of the total population of the island. It is built amphitheatrically around its well preserved Byzantine Castle. Not very far from there, on the north-east side of town, one can find the Hellenistic Theatre with its superb acoustics and capacity of 10,000 people. Further in the suburb of Varia one can visit the Theophilos Museum.
Twelve kilometers from Mytilene, near the town of Moria, one can visit the Roman Aqueduct that was built in the second century AD.
Going further up north by the east coast, thru a series of beautiful little villages one will arrive in the town of Mantamados, famous for its cheeses and the fine pottery. The next stop will be Skala Sikaminias, one of the most charming fishing villages one would ever see.
And then, at the northest point of the island one will find the picturesque village of Mithymna (also known as Molivos), with its mediaeval castle and the traditional architecture. Molivos is also the islands best known resort. By some it has been called "the closed place to paradise, on earth". The association with Arts is appropriate enough, for it was here in Mithymna that the head of Orpheus is said to have been washed ashore after his dismemberment of the Thracian women. Another mythical citizen of Mithymna was the lyric poet and musician Arion. It has been said that he has been saved by the music-loving dolphin.
Only a short distance of 5 Km SW of Molivos the village of Petra can be found. Petra has one of the best sandy beaches of the island.
Again further south the village of Agia Paraskevi is situated. This village has a lot of old mansions and is known for the Bull Festival that has been celebrated since more than two hundred years. Near the village lay ruins of an ancient temple of Napaios Apollo and the ruins of an Ionian temple dated from the 3rd century BC. This temple was dedicated to Zeus, Hera and Dionysos.
In the island's center, not far from Agia Paraskevi, lays the modern town Kalloni. It is famous for its sardines which are caught in the nearby bay called the Gulf of Kalloni. On this gulf one will also find the popular summer resort Skala Kalloni with its beautiful sandy beaches.
Also near the center of the island another well known town is Agiassos. This town is famous for its pottery. Going further south again we reach the towns of Plomari and Vatera which have the most superb beaches of the island.
At the western tip of Lesvos, Sigri is a pretty fishing village with a nice little beach and a castle that goes back to the 18th century. Not far from there lies the Petrified Forest, dating back fifteen million years.
Finally, not far from Sigri, one will find the town of Eressos. Eressos has been the birth place of Sappho and Theoprastos. Its port, Skala Eressos, is a famous resort with a magnificent beach.
Lesvos, as it can be seen from its classical history, its abundance of poets, musicians, philosophers and lawgivers, was one of the great cultural centers of the Greek world. It was second perhaps only to Athens, in its influence if not in its power.
As a place for a holiday, for a rest or for quiet work, Lesvos is HARD to BETTER. It is big enough to permit that change of scene so necessary if one is to avoid "island claustrophobia". It has a further advantage that it is easy from here to organize a trip to visit Troy or to explore the coastline of ancient Ionia.
Elaionas Nikou is 7km far from Mytilini, the capital of the island, where the visitor can do shopping, visit museums (archaeological, Theophilos and Teriade modern art), churches, the old city and the traditional market, the old harbour, the medieval castle, and to have a delicious lunch in a fish tavern. In the evening one can have a romantic dinner in a restaurant and then continue with a cocktail in a beach-bar. For swimming, close to the city, one can go to Haramida beach, or Agios Ermogenis. Also, in 4km from Elaionas, one can visit the hot spring Therma, have a hot bath and perhaps massage. In small distance from Elaionas there are a lot of excellent fish taverns, that serve the traditional plates of Lesvos. Within approx. half an hour from Elaionas, one can visit very beautiful traditional villages and enjoy the rich nature of the island that changes from place to place.

The Head and the Heart
Recommended SIFF Event + Ticket Giveaway: Welcome to Doe Bay {6/3}
Who wants to see Welcome to Doe Bay this Sunday? We've got another super-quick ticket giveaway, as the fine folks at SIFF have gifted us with a pair of tickets to the Seattle premiere of this local documentary, Sunday, 6/3, 9:15pm at The Egyptian!! Directors Nesib Shamah and Dan Thornton, and Producer Sarah Crowe scheduled to attend, so you can ask them all your burning Doe Bay questions at the Q&A after the film.
For a chance to win tix, send an email to tig {at} threeimaginarygirls {dot} com with the subject line "The PNW Rules" between now and 5pm tomorrow, 6/1. We'll pick a winner early Saturday morning and put your name on the list +1 for Sunday screening.
SIFF 2012 Preview: Face the Music
It's time once again to run down the highlights of this year's Face the Music program for the Seattle International Film Festival!
There are a ton of great things this year, but the film I think our Imaginaries will be most excited about is the documentary Welcome to Doe Bay, which chronicles the community and camaraderie of Doe Bay Fest—a camping trip/music festival/weekend-long party at Doe Bay Resort on Orcas Island that brings Pacific Northwest music stars and fans together for a relaxing musical retreat, and apparently, some slip-n-slide action and s'mores. The trailer is packed with engaging commentary and familiar faces (Hi, Jace!) and I'm sure the music featured by Sera Cahoone, Lemolo, the Maldives, Fly Moon Royalty, Champagne Champagne, and … wait for it … The Head and the Heart will be the draw for fans of the scene. {Screens June 3, 9:15pm, The Egyptian & June 5, 9:30pm, SIFF Cinema Uptown}
On the opposite end of the spectrum, Emerald City Visions (A Hip Hop Reinterpretation of The Wiz) looks pretty radical. The description promises OC Notes, Don't Talk to the Cops, and "some of the hottest names in hip hop" (I guess it's a secret, but I know who I'm pulling for) will infuse the musical score of The Wiz with some fresh flavor and beats. Word. {Screens June 1, 7pm and again at 9:30pm, The Triple Door—and if you see the 7pm showing, you'll still have plenty time to make it to our Rockstar New Wave Karaoke show!}
Latest comment by: imaginary embracey: "
Can't wait to ease on down to the Triple Door for Emerald City Visions. Really looking forward to seeing what DJ Mizell does with The Wiz."
Did you make your Sasquatch! schedule yet? Here's our picks!
It seems crazy to be talking about it already, but ready or not, 2012's Sasquatch! Music Festival is right around the corner! Next weekend, in fact, we'll be packing up our cars and celebrating the impending start of summer by spending a long weekend in the sun, poring over four days of band schedules and making the most of our annual trip to the Gorge Ampitheater in George, Washington. The last few years have given us festival weekends for the books {here's some proof from 2011 and 2010}, and this year looks like it will be no exception -- there's tons to see every day no matter what your personal taste is, and at the moment it looks like the weather is going to hold out, too! So, let's take a look at some of the highlights that we can't wait to take in -- and you can play along at home by making your own Sasquatch! day-by-day schedule here.
There seems to be a build built in to the fest, both per-day and over the course of the weekend, too: Friday starts by easing us into a warm bath with the smooth sounds of Allen Stone, who will be kicking things off at the Sasquatch Stage at 5:00p. And if that "blue-eyed soul" sound isn't your thing, don't worry -- you can take it in the opposite direction with the post alt.indie vibe that Yellow Ostrich does at 5:15p on the Bigfoot Stage instead {pop on over here for a sample of what we love about these guys}. Then, Iceland's made-famous-to-Seattle-via-KEXP allstars Of Monsters and Men take the 6:00p spot on the Sasquatch Stage, while recent buzz band Polica blow out the Bigfoot Stage at 6:30. There's plenty to experience Friday besides (and around) these four picks, but our last can't-miss recommendation is 110% for Girl Talk's set at 8:30 on the Sasquatch Stage, sure to be a power-hour that will leave the crowds (and us!) happily hopped-up in preparation for the next three days of music.
We can't really think of a better way to begin the first weekend day of Sasquatch! with back-to-back sets of awesome on the Sasquatch Stage, first with Pickwick at 12:00p, followed immediately by Charles Bradley and his Extraordinaires at 1:05p. {It's worth noting that we've been buzzing with love for Charles Bradley since his set in KEXP's Bumbershoot Music Lounge last year, and we can't wait to catch him on the big stage!} Well-primed, we'll head into some modern American roots tunes from Blitzen Trapper at 2:10p on the same stage, and we'll cap the first part of the day off with what's sure to be one of the best revival-jam sets of the weekend, Alabama Shakes at 3:00p on the Bigfoot Stage. Speaking of, we're quite sure you're in the loop with AS's recent release, Boys & Girls, but just in case you haven't gotten into it yet, check it out here.
Saturday shakes up at 3:30p, with a turn for the funkier side: THEESatisfaction will be bringing all the goodness from their latest release {and then some!} to the Yeti Stage right about then, and there's tons to check out over the course of the afternoon and early evening (Portlandia, Kurt Vile and the Violators, and Dum Dum Girls stand out as choices worthy of your festival time) before Helio Sequence's Bigfoot Stage set at 6:30p and Metric's Sasquatch Stage set at 6:40p. Those bleed into our absolutely-can't-miss pick for Saturday, tUnE-yArDs on the Bigfoot Stage at 7:30p {!!!!!}, and the night caps off with The Shins and Jack White back-to-back to close out the Sasquatch Stage starting about 8:10p.
Totally legit: Sasquatch! 2012 lineup announced
In the throes of a killer party at the Neptune last night, we were thrilled beyond belief to find out the details on another most excellent year for the Sasquatch! music festival, taking place out at the Gorge on Memorial Day weekend {May 25-28}. Sasquatch! is by far one of our favorite fests every year, and 2012 is going to be no exception.
We're particularly excited about partying down with the likes of Jack White, Beck, Tenacious D, Beirut, Girl Talk {hell yes!}, The Head and the Heart, Tune-Yards, Wild Flag, Blind Pilot, Mark Lanegan Band, The Cave Singers, Grouplove, Ted Leo, Deer Tick, Alabama Shakes, We Are Augustines, Shearwater {!!!!!}, Charles Bradley, Pickwick, Hey Marseilles, Sallie Ford, Dyme Def, Fresh Espresso, and Katie Kate -- but by no means does that even scratch the surface of the seemingly-zillion fantastic bands included on this year's lineup. As usual, there's a thoughtful mash of notable locals and squee-worthy headliners, so much so that slapping down the ticket price to spend the long weekend with twenty-plus thousand of your closest friends is an absolute no-brainer.
The Head and the Heart heat up the slopes at Steven's Pass {2/13}
Music and mountains are two of the biggest draws to the Pacific Northwest. On February 13, you can enjoy both together with an afternoon slipping down the slopes of Steven's Pass, followed by The Head and the Heart's acoustic set at the Foggy Goggle Lounge. We can't think of a better way to warm up for Valentine's Day than drinking hot toddies while hearing THatH's intelligent, heartfelt harmonies.
THatH have won us over time and again with their live performances, which always sell out. This one may be all the way up the pass, but tickets are going fast, so you'll want to get yours soon.
{21+ / $70 show + lift; $25 show only / 7:00 pm}
Live at KEXP vol. 7: on sale now!
Welcome to Rocktober, everybody! And what better way to start the month than with a celebration of what makes the Seattle music scene so great? Yep, we're talking about KEXP. The fall pledge drive is on, and it needs your pledge of support!
You can call anytime this week {locals call 206.903.KEXP, toll free is 866.903.KEXP}, log in online and do an electronic pledge, or walk yourself on over to the station and give. There's tons of great thank-you gifts -- shirts, totes, lunchbags, 500 Club memberships -- nothing is too small to count. Whether you can give five dollars, five dollars a month, five hundred dollars, or five hundred dollars a month, everything makes a difference and everything is appreciated. We've given to the station at varying states of financial gain (and diress), we've been one-time donors and Amplifier Club members, and year after year we remain in good standing in whatever capacity we can, giving our hard-earned money (and time, when we can!) to support a cause that's near and dear to our hearts for so many reasons.
Austin City Limits 2011: three days of sun, sweat, and total bliss! {pt. II}
{This is part two of our photo-coverage from the 2011 Austin City Limits festival -- check out part one here!}
The second half of this year's trip to Zilker Park was even better than the first, as ACL's chock-ful-o' bands and radness vibe kept on strong. Strains of Wanda Jackson and Cee Lo filtered through the late-day dusk as we crowded under the Vista Equity stage tent to catch a few songs (and a glimpse) of Gillian Welch. And was it ever worth fighting the crowd -- that sparse, stripped-away version of "Ohio" was absolutely one of the high points of our Saturday!
The night blew us away with huge sets from TV on the Radio, My Morning Jacket, and Stevie Wonder -- and in what felt like moments later we were back in the morning for more. Yellow Ostrich, Mariachi El Bronx, Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr., The Head and the Heart, the Walkmen, Broken Social Scene, and Joseph Arthur filled our sweltering Sunday with amazement -- but the two best sets of the day {and the weekend, IOHO} went to Elbow and We Are Augustines. Hands-down, no contest.
Here's a few shots from between the raindrops!
Gillian Welch with Dave Rawlings, slaying a packed
house tent:
Here we go, Austin! Here we go! *clap!* *clap!*
Yup. There sure are a lot of exclamation points up in that headline, and with good cause: we're heading off for Austin City Limits this weekend, to catch some bands and some tan in the near-hundred-degree sun. Between pre-trip laundering, hydrating, charging our camera batteries and getting all that three-ounce-or-less business handled for the flight, we thought we'd take a minute to let you know about some of the acts we're particularly excited about this year -- especially since there seems to be a particularly strong PNW presence to be reckoned with every single day of the 'fest.
The start of the fest on Friday is kind of like easing in to that hot, soapy, not-too-dirty-yet festival bath. Hometown heroine Brandi Carlile will be getting things going early in the day, and we're hoping her sweet sounds will put us in the right kind of mood to slide over into Ray LaMontagne's late afternoon set -- they're both playing at the AMD stage starting around 2p. As the day darkens, we hope to get a little more gritty with the Cave Singers, and while Cold War Kids and Bright Eyes blow their sets out back-to-back {on the Honda and AMD stages respectively, for those of you following along in your custom-made schedules at home}, we might have to weasel our way forward to get a bigger-than-Bumbershoot-sized helping of Charles Bradley as he closes out the Vista Equity stage just before forever-legend Mavis Staples. As to whether we end day one with Kanye West or Coldplay -- my vote's on Kanye. But seeing as the fest is all sold out except for a few Sunday passes, we might not be able to make it close enough for a photo report. Fingers crossed!
Pending crowd surges (and weather permitting), we hope to also make time to get a little Delta Spirit, Smith Westerns, Kurt Vile, and Santigold into our schedules too!
Photoessay: opening day(s) of Sasquatch! at the Gorge, part I
The opening bell at this year's Sasquatch! music festival was no slouch, and we've got the photos to prove it!
Mixed in with the obvious wins -- sunshine, scenery, and good friends -- we spent a little over three days on what we're quite sure was the best trip so far of 2011. Days one and two brought the local flavor in a big way, opening up Saturday morning with Seattle Rock Orchestra's Radiohead cover set on the Bigfoot stage, a one-two punch of pow from the Globes on the Yeti stage, and an early afternoon set from the Head and the Heart on the main stage. We broke out of our melancholy-tinged swoonfest for one of the best sets of the festival, Aloe Blacc -- who connected with the throngs of fans at the Bigfoot stage beautifully with his smooth brand of funky old-school soul and some bad-ass dance moves.
Just before the sun started to fade, we caught regional local Dan Mangan back over at the Yeti stage -- hailing from Vancouver, BC -- who brought his thoughtful, alt.indie.ponder-pop songwriting to an incredibly enthusiastic crowd. We're up to our elbows in his last release, Nice Nice Very Nice, as we speak type -- check out the pictures below!
Photoessay: The Head and the Heart win us over... again.
Friday night was one of those nights we forgot we were working -- of course, Friday night being the sold-out show at the Showbox with The Head and the Heart, Lemolo, and The Devil Whale. In between the big-guitar feel-good riffs of the The Devil Whale, Lemolo's mesmerizing sparse brand of genius, and THatH's forty-five-minutes-to-the-minute (plus a three-song encore) professionally polished set, we managed to snap off a few shots -- you know, when we weren't dancing, swooning, tweeting, or singing along to every word coming off the stage.
We're happy to report that THatH's songs have evolved beautifully, and having been present at last summer's Sonic Boom and Comet shows, we can safely say that not one ounce of that thing they do was watered down by the size of the stage or the vibe of the room. Naysayers be, um, nayed! Instead, here's a big fat bravo, lady and gents. You've certainly earned it.
Latest comment by: Yvonne: "Lemolo is now my favorite band. Thank you for posting these great pictures from Friday night. Especially the picture of Meagan with her hair a flying - stunning!"

Student-Athlete Affairs Team Up With Aflac
March 29, 2012
On Monday, March 26th, 2012, multiple student-athletes attended a career development event, provided to them by Aflac and Student-Athlete Affairs. Among these twenty-seven student-athletes, there were twelve different Athletic Teams represented. The teams were men's football, swimming and diving, track and field, and wrestling. Women's softball, tennis, hockey, spirit squad, track and field, rowing, and volleyball teams were also represented.
At the career development event, these student-athletes participated in a resume critique activity and a mock interview. There were many professionals who attended the event, including five Aflac representatives, and representatives from Target, Best Buy, a local elementary school, and University of Minnesota Athletics. At the event, there were also seven of our alumni and a former career development staff member who volunteered their time to help with this event. Each student-athlete then got the privilege of participating in a mock interview with one or more of these professionals to receive professional feedback on their professional appearance, demeanor, and presentation.
Alyssa Grogan, a member of the University of Minnesota Women's Hockey Team, and also an attendant of this event stated, "The Aflac mock interviews were extremely helpful in getting me some quality interview experience with great feedback. I got some very good critiques on my resume, which was beneficial. Both of these things are going to be very helpful as my athletic career comes to an end and I change gears into finding a career and getting ready for my future."
The event was a huge hit among our student-athletes, and it was all made possible by Aflac and the students whom organized it. Special thanks goes out to all that made this event possible, and the attendants. Check back soon for more highlights from your favorite Gophers and Student-Athlete Affairs.

Friday, February 17, 2012
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Lipscomb women's basketball team is set to close out the home portion of the 2011-12 campaign on Saturday afternoon hosting USC-Upstate at 4 p.m. at Allen Arena in Nashville.
The contest features "Senior Night" against the Spartans (7-19, 6-9 A-Sun) for the Lady Bison (5-12, 3-12 A-Sun) as Lipscomb will honor seniors Anna Bowers, Brittany Duerk and Leah McAlister in a postgame ceremony. The trio has combined to play in over 300 games and 6,400 minutes over the last four seasons.
Needing only a pair of 3-pointers to become the all-time Lipscomb leader from beyond the arch in the Division I era, Bowers continues to pace the Lady Bison with a 12.9 points per game scoring average overall and a 14.1 mark in Atlantic Sun Conference action. Bowers has scored in double digits in 14 straight games.
Junior wing Hannah Phililps leads the way on the glass hauling in 5.2 rebounds per game and adding 11.5 points per game. Phillips also leads the team in assists (66) and steals (44).
The opponent: Upstate heads into Saturday afternoon's contest having lost four of their last five contests but with a win over the Lady Bison, the Spartans will lock in a berth into the A-Sun Tournament.
The Spartans are led by Tee'Ara Copney, the third-best scorer in the league, who averages 15.5 points per contest. Paulina Zaveckaite leads Upstate on the glass hauling in seven rebounds per outing.
Up next: The Lady Bison travel to Mercer on Thursday night for a 6:30 p.m. tip against the Bears.

Living Cell Technologies has announced the results of their latest human trial of encapsulated islets.
The trial, which took place in New Zealand with support from JDRF, aimed to test if transplanting encapsulated islets is safe, and to determine what 'dose' or number of transplanted islet cells would be the most beneficial to people with type 1.
The researchers reported few side effects of the treatment and a significant reduction in hypoglycaemia unawareness in people with type 1 who received a transplant. People who received the treatment also reported an improvement in quality of life.
Islet encapsulation is a new way to protect transplanted islet cells in people with type 1 diabetes. The islet cells are encapsulated in a protective bubble that has tiny holes to let insulin out and glucose in (as shown in illustration). These holes are too small for the cells from the immune system to enter, so the islets are protected from both transplant rejection and the reaction that causes type 1 in the first place.
The promising results of this trial will allow the researchers to apply for approval to start a phase IIb trial. A phase IIb trial will allow the researchers to test their technology on a larger group of people to gather more data on how effective it is at restoring insulin production.
Maebh Kelly, Research Communication Officer at JDRF commented, 'Islet encapsulation is a very exciting topic at the moment and the results of this trial are encouraging. However, this is an early phase trial and the number of people involved was low. Larger studies will now be carried out to determine just how effective it is'.

2 Too Cute & Tap/Ballet 3 & 4 and 5 & 6 Learn rhythms and shapes with an introduction to tap dancing and balance and grace with ballet. Using correct terminology and age appropriate music, your child will practice their numbers, shapes and colors as it applies to dance! Also with stretching and creative movement, their imaginations will carry them away. Following the leader and "taking turns" will teach the children to respect one another as well as the teacher. The curriculum becomes more elaborate as the child progresses in age.
Tap: Students learn terminology as well as rhythms and syncopation. Tap styles vary from Broadway, soft shoe, and hoofing and will be introduced and used according to teacher"s discretion.
Ballet I: Using the Cecchetti method (Italian based technique) this class emphasizes the understanding and application of correct terminology, placement and line of the body.
Ballet II: Using the basic knowledge from Ballet I, classwork will become more intense with emphasis on center floorwork (adagio, allegro, pirouettes, etc.) culminating in more advanced ballet combinations. As with Ballet I, emphasis will be place on correct terminology, placement and line of the body.
Jazz: Styles in this discipline vary from flowing lyrical to funky and cutting edge. However, no matter what the style, all are influenced by ballet terminology and technique and will be stressed throughout the class. It is at the discretion of the teacher as to which style will be used.
Hip Hop: Using rhythm and expression, this dance style has a technique of its own. A combination of "popping" and sharp smooth intricate movements executed to popular music with inspiration from artists such as Jennifer Lopez, Justin Timberlake, and even Disney movies such as High School Musical. Children of all ages can relate to this style of dance!
Hip Hop I & II: These classes (by teacher invitation only) will include more intense, intricate and faster paced choreography. Students will be placed into these classes at time of registration.
Broadway Jazz: Students will be introduced to the dance techniques of some of Broadway"s greatest choreographers such as Bob Fosse and Jerome Robbins. This class will stress the importance of technique and performance ability.
Modern: Using technique and movements derived from both ballet and jazz, this class gives the teacher and students the chance to embellish and create dance pieces according to the feel and spirit of the particular choice of music and emotion of the piece.

The Arsenal Supporters Trust have slammed the club's owners for 'causing long-term damage' by failing to spend significant amounts in the January transfer window.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger was expected to be among the busiest managers during the January window, with chief executive Ivan Gazidis revealing they had 'considerable funds' to spend.
But the club only did one deal – the £8.5m signing of left-back Nacho Monreal – to leave many Arsenal fans furious and, speaking to Metro hours after the close of the window, AST spokesman Tim Payton slammed the club for risking its long-term future by showing a lack of ambition when it comes to transfers.
"Our competitiveness is falling away and our footballing infrastructure is not working well,'"Payton said.
"The main thing we want is Arsenal to have more ambition – and to use the resources that fans provide."
The AST also released an open letter on their website – directly accusing the club of allowing the team to decay by their failure to spend the £50-£70m they believe is available for transfers.
"The January transfer window is an opportunity for teams to strengthen for the future and provide a boost to the squad for the season run-in," reads the letter.

(Jun 04, 2012) On May 29, 2012, northern Italy suffered its second earthquake in a little over a week; in all, the disasters caused the deaths of about 24 people. (Death Toll from Italy Earthquake Rises, CNN (May 30, 2012).)
On May 30, the Italian Council of Ministers proclaimed June 4 to be a national day of mourning for those lost in the quakes. In addition, the state of emergency in two provinces, Reggio Emilia and Rovigo, was extended. (Terremoto in Emilia: i provvedimenti del CdM [Earthquake in Emilia: Measures of the CdM [Council of Ministers]], GOVERNO ITALIANO (last visited May 30, 2012); Consiglio dei Ministri no. 31 (May 30, 2012).)
Other measures taken include the opening of an investigation by local prosecutors into the direct causes of the building collapses that resulted in the fatalities. Given the size of the tremors, the question has been raised as to whether properly built structures should have been able to remain standing. Most of the deaths were of workers in factories that were severely damaged. According to prosecutor Vito Zincani, the modern buildings in the quake area were still erect after the event, and so he favored looking into the construction standards of the factories. (CNN, supra.) In addition to the day of mourning and the state of emergency, the Council of Ministers authorized a small surcharge tax on gasoline, with the money to go toward recovery efforts. (Id.)
