Education Channel "EDtv" is Officially "On The Air"
Posted on 01/22/2013 10:00 am
Red Clay Consolidated School District Superintendent Merv Daugherty and Wilmington City Council President Theo Gregory today launched Delaware's first 24-hour educational cable access channel which began airing programs this morning at 10 a.m.
EDtv, as the new cable channel is known, is on Channel 965 on the Comcast system and is available to ALL Comcast customers—residential and businesses—in the City of Wilmington and throughout New Castle County. Comcast subscribers are able to access EDtv regardless of which tier of service they purchase from Comcast.
In addition to information about area schools, EDtv will offer educational, entertaining programming created by staff, students, young people throughout Wilmington, local filmmakers and national institutions such as NASA and the Annenberg Foundation.
The development of the new channel began several months ago as Red Clay was in the process of building an expanded communications center at Thomas McKean High School while, at the same time, the City of Wilmington expressed public interest in activating an educational channel that it controls as part of its franchise agreement with Comcast.
"We are very proud of the City's role in creating the opportunity for a new television channel that is devoted to helping children in Wilmington and throughout New Castle County learn more and grow as individuals," said City Council President Gregory. "I express my appreciation to the Red Clay District for all of its efforts, and extend special recognition to former Council President Norman D. Griffiths, who, along with Council Members Hanifa G. N. Shabazz and Justen Wright and other Council Members, decided it was time to take a bold step and provide new options for our children to learn more about themselves and the world. The Council President also thanked the Leased Access Producers Association (LAPA) for its role in supporting the establishment of an educational channel.
"We view the channel as a public service," said Red Clay Superintendent Merv Daugherty. "Red Clay was deep into the planning stages for a communications center at McKean when the opportunity with Wilmington became available. Giving young people a chance to work on videos that will be broadcast brought our idea for the communications center to a whole new level. We are grateful to the Wilmington City Council, which has entrusted Red Clay with this community asset."
The City of Wilmington sought organizations that could build and manage a television station through a "Request for Qualifications" issued in early 2012. Red Clay submitted a proposal to manage the channel, based on the expansion plans at McKean, which were paid for in large part with federal and state career and technical education grants. After hearings before Council subcommittees, the full Wilmington City Council unanimously approved a two-year management agreement with Red Clay in April 2012.
The communications center at McKean also contains a long-running radio station whose reach will soon be increased from five to 15 miles. FM station WMHS 88.1 will retain the same call letters but will be renamed "The EDge" to reflect an emphasis on new and shared programming with EDtv.
Red Clay's management of the City of Wilmington channel will be reviewed annually by an advisory board as stipulated in the agreement between the City Council and Red Clay. The board, which is comprised of representatives from the City as well as charter and private schools, is in the formative stages and is currently drafting by-laws and procedures. Once fully established, the advisory board will hold public meetings on a quarterly basis to review upcoming EDtv programming and provide a forum for comment and input from the community.
Red Clay will also seek feedback about the new channel through a new website dedicated to the communications center at McKean that was launched today with the new education channel. Community input is one of several Red Clay goals for the channel as outlined in the proposal submitted to the Wilmington City Council.
The first priority of the station is to provide opportunities for young people to create, shoot, edit and produce high-quality programming.
Students enrolled in communications courses at McKean and other high schools will work at the station as part of their course work. Young people from Wilmington will be encouraged to create broadcast-quality videos through workshops and clubs offered by community groups. Students throughout New Castle County may also submit videos to be considered for broadcast.
A second major goal of the channel is to provide entertaining, informational programs that help educate children throughout the area, focusing on universal educational targets such as reading proficiency by the end of third grade and lowering the drop-out rate.
Red Clay also intends for the channel to become a central place for parents and community members to find information on education, wellness, issues related to raising children and community organizations dedicated to helping children and their families. The organizations and all area schools—including other districts, charters and private schools—will be invited to submit information to a community calendar.
Parents will also be informed of community resources and programs available to their children and families, with an eye toward increasing awareness and involvement.
Red Clay and Wilmington officials gathered this morning at McKean High School to "flip the switch" together and usher in a new era in educational communications throughout the state. While numerous school districts operate cable access channels in neighboring states, EDtv is a first for Delaware.
"We are excited about this opportunity to encourage our young people, and give them a chance to shine," said Dr. Daugherty. "We look forward to sharing their work with the Wilmington community and all of New Castle County."

Salt Lake kids may not know it, but their jolly old elf is a she. Margaret Putnam, manager of consumer affairs at the Salt Lake Post Office, is Santa Claus. She continues the nearly century-old tradition of answering letters addressed to Santa Claus at the North Pole. (Nationwide, more than 150,000 letters pour into the Post Office, each expecting a personal response.)
SLC's Ms. Claus does the best she can with the help of fellow postal workers. She says she follows "a basic rule of parenting: never promise anything!" and says, "Evidently, kids think of Santa all year long, because we get letters almost every week."
That address again? Santa Claus, North Pole. Send it ASAP if you want a response by Christmas!

WWAY news director to take class after brief arrest
Published: Thursday, May 2, 2013 at 12:40 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, May 2, 2013 at 12:40 p.m.
WWAY News Director Scott Pickey said Thursday he agreed to take a defensive driving class before his next court hearing in July in an attempt to end the saga of his brief arrest during the Martin Luther King Parade.
Pickey is accused of driving onto the parade route in violation of a police officer's order to stay put. He is charged with failure to obey a traffic officer, and careless and reckless driving.
On Jan. 21, Pickey tried to leave the television station parking lot along the parade route at 615 N. Front St., when he was stopped by an officer who told him he couldn't leave, Wilmington Police Department spokeswoman Lucy Crockett said.
Crockett said Pickey ignored the officer and drove out of the parking lot onto the parade route.
He was arrested a short distance away and released from jail on an unsecured $1,000 bond.
According to WWAY, station reporters were being made to wait two hours until the parade was over before they could leave the parking lot to cover news events elsewhere.
"When Pickey got in the car and drove out of the parking lot during another break in the parade, police arrested him," WWAY reported.
Pickey said Thursday his hearing has been continued to July 2. In the interim, he has agreed with a prosecution suggestion he attend a defensive driving class.
"I'm looking forward to coming to some sort of agreement with my next court date in July," Pickey said.

La Monnaie ¦ Opera ¦ La Traviata ¦ Intro
La Traviata
Giuseppe Verdi
What better to represent desire, fragility and secrecy, the three themes around which the season's artistic project is constructed, than the tragic story of Violetta and Alfredo? If one of Verdi's most beautiful heroines, based on Alexandre Dumas's character Marguerite Gautier, finally dies of tuberculosis, other forces militate against her passionate love for a young man from whom she hides her illness until the end: prejudice, morality and conventions. The Lady of the Camellias should not only be seen as a highclass prostitute. Her reputation is as dangerous as the syphilis that worries the bourgeoisie that frequent the brothels. Following Kát'a Kabanová, Andrea Breth brings us her vision of the heartbreaking journey towards death of a woman who, with her last breath, still wants to believe in the miracle of human passion.
>> La Traviata and artistic freedom
>> The live transmission on Arte Live Web of our Traviata, filmed during the performance of 15 December, is available from 22 December on the website of Arte Live Web.

What do a rhinoceros in the Bronx Zoo, a cow in Nebraska, and a horse in Texas have in common? It's no joke: They all scratch their backs on old street sweeper brushes , courtesy of a company called repurposedMATERIALS.
The Denver-based business specializes in salvaging old materials from municipal, industrial, and commercial sources, and finding creative new ways to reuse them. Since 2010, they've diverted more than 750,000 lbs. of waste from landfills across North America.
Founder Damon Carson takes pride in his reputation as a "professional Dumpster diver." His first foray into solid waste was as co-owner of a garbage company that served Colorado ski resort towns. After selling the company to Waste Management, he was inspired to try his hand at recycling when he saw thousands of yards of vinyl billboard canvases being thrown in a landfill. Carson salvaged the vinyls, resold them as industrial-strength tarps, and his new business was off and running.
In addition to saving the environment, repurposedMATERIALS helps save public works departments the time and cost of hauling away unwanted items. Depending on the type and quantity of materials, Carson determines the best way to take them — either by shipping or scheduling a pick up. Donors don't pay a thing, and materials are accepted "as is."
Two of Carson's most popular products already come from municipal sources. A street sweeper brush that's become a scratching post for rhinos at New York City's Bronx Zoo originally cleaned the streets of Fort Collins, Colo. And when the City of St. Louis donated 50 used brushes, half were bought as back scratchers by a cattle rancher in Nebraska.
Many public works departments have donated worn-out "rodder" or jet hoses . Even after the high-pressure hoses are no longer fit for cleaning sewer lines, they can handle agricultural work. Farmers have used them for everything from irrigating crops to filling in abandoned wells with grout.
The company offers guidelines to help determine whether to "S.A.V.E." used items: Standardization (are the materials uniform?); Availability (will the byproducts be available more than once?); Versatility (the more uses, the better); and Engineering (what are the properties and characteristics?).
If your product fits the bill, send a description (material, quantity, size, color, etc.) and photos if possible to email@example.com. Carson invites public works departments to contact him (303-478-6193) with ideas, and to help spread the word — he recently acquired decommissioned hoses from a fire department, and galvanized guy wire from a city's power and light division.
Repurposed items also help agencies meet requirements for purchasing environmentally preferred materials, often at a lower cost than other "green" products. "Our customers generally save 50% to 75% with our materials, versus buying something new," says Carson.
This is especially true with specialty items, such as snowplow blades and deflectors. A fleet manager can buy several feet of used conveyor belt — a common coal-mining byproduct — and cut it to length to reuse it as a plow blade deflector, or bolt several together for a cutting edge. "There is a do-it-yourself element with some of these materials," Carson says, "but the effort is minimal compared to the cost savings."

Life in the Fast Lane
It was an exquisite evening for the 40 VIPs who attended a special sit-down dinner, co-hosted by President and Group Publisher Alan Klein and actor Gabriel Mann. At a stunning $36 million Beverly Hills estate designed and developed by architectural visionary Michael Palumbo—and listed by The Agency—guests sipped Saint Helena wines and Tallarico Vodka and enjoyed a specially curated drinks menu. Meanwhile, Audi was on hand to offer exclusive access to its luxury vehicles on display. Attendees (including The Agency's Billy Rose, publicist Katherina Jawaharlal and celebrity event planner Kevin Lee) enjoyed private tours of the property and a five-course dinner, prepared by Petrossian Executive Chef Giselle Wellman, featuring such delicacies as Maine lobster, wild sea urchin, and ragu with sweet potato gnocchi. With such incredible luxuries at hand, it's a wonder anyone went home. –Photos by Vincent Vallejo

Please, "The 3 Ninjas" are more ninja than that wannabee
that wouldnt make sense nanaki. since when were ninja and pirates some sort of element or classification? what would they be weak/strong against? what kind of different atributes would they have? How would you define them? Pirates and Ninjas are certain groups which sprung from human societies, ninja is a chinese sect of warriors, and pirates sprung from i believe spain due to all the trade ships to loot and whatnot. pokemon have no similar social specifities so neither class would ever be created. what are you even thinking nanaki? honestly.
As close as you are going to get.
No, I wear the britches now boy. I am the one that tells YOU what to do. Got it? Now go and sit in the corner. AND NO MASTURBATING

And Death's a bit too much
They call on me by name you see,
For my special touch.

McCAYSVILLE, Ga. (AP) -- A small earthquake has rattled North Georgia near the border of Tennessee and North Carolina.
The U.S. Geological Survey reported that the 2.5-magnitude tremor happened just after midnight Saturday. The epicenter was calculated to be at McCaysville.
Residents of nearby Blue Ridge say the earthquake sounded like a bomb.
Officials said they received calls about the earthquake, but no damage was reported.

Who: Big Stone County Highway Department, Minn.
Product: Base One
Company: Team Laboratory Chemical Corp. Inc.; Detroit Lakes, Minn.
Savings: $180,000
A stretch of gravel road was eating away at the Big Stone County (Minn.) Highway Department's budget. As the annual bill for re-graveling and blading approached $8,000 per mile, Engineer Nick Anderson took action.
With heavy agricultural traffic causing deep ruts and extreme rough conditions, the 4.5-mile stretch of County Highway 35 struggled to meet state safety design standards. "We had to blade the section two to three times a week just to keep washboard areas at bay and keep loose gravel and soft subgrade areas from getting too dangerous for car traffic," he says.
Because of these issues, the county scheduled the segment to be graded in 2004 and paved in 2005. The original 9-ton-per-axle design included a 2-foot sub-cut with granular backfill, followed by 10 inches of Minnesota Class 5 base material and 6.5 inches of bituminous pavement.
"The engineer in Wilkin County had been using it under all of his new pavements, so I thought I should try it," says Anderson. "He was adamant about its performance."
Anderson had experience with stabilizers. "When I worked for North Dakota, we did some lime base stabilization," he says. "But it was a lot more expensive and labor intensive."
To apply Base One, the construction crew first used a blade to windrow the top three inches of aggregate. Then a water truck treated the remaining material before the windrow was pulled back across the road in 1-inch lifts. The water truck treated each windrowed lift, and two rubber-tire rollers compacted the treated areas continually for each lift. The final graded surface received another application, and the final grade was compacted with the rubber-tire rollers again.
The entire process took two-and-a-half days; total cost to purchase and apply the chemical was less than $5,600 per mile.
"It firmed up the road grade nicely and was holding all the gravel in place," says Anderson. "It totally eliminated the need to re-gravel anywhere on the section, and we only had to blade it one or two times per month at most — a big improvement over two or three times a week."

Two years later, the department hired an independent firm to conduct falling weight deflectometer tests every one-tenth of a mile in each driving lane. The results ranged from 12.5 to 23.7 tons with an average strength of 14.1 tons. "We built a 14.1-ton road using a 9-ton design and liquid stabilizer," he says.
The pavement has endured four Minnesota winters (average January temperature is 1 degree F) without cracking, which is unusual. "Normally, a road will release with at least a couple cracks per mile by year two," says Anderson. "But the grade seems to be so well consolidated and hard that there's only minimal seasonal expansion and contraction of the road bed. There aren't any cracks at all going into its fifth winter."
The department now includes Base One in specs for all new pavement, but doesn't use the product to minimize gravel loss. With gravel available at $2 per yard, re-graveling is inexpensive.
Although the cost savings are not as great for Big Stone County, Anderson sees how the stabilizer could benefit his colleagues. "It keeps the gravel in place so you don't need to regravel nearly as much," he says. "One neighboring county engineer hasn't had to re-gravel about 20 miles of treated road for seven years."
One of the first communities to try Base One, Big Stone County's experiment has paid off. "It did everything they said it would."

Thalian Hall to unveil digital projection system with 'Hugo'
Published: Thursday, April 25, 2013 at 7:22 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 25, 2013 at 7:22 p.m.
Thalian Hall will debut its brand-new digital film projection system next week when the Cinematique film series brings back the 2011 Martin Scorsese film "Hugo" – appropriately, about the pioneer French filmmaker Georges Melies.
"Hugo" will screen at 7:30 p.m. April 29-May 1 on Thalian Hall's mainstage at 310 Chestnut St. Admission will be $8.
"Hugo" won five Academy Awards, including Oscars for cinematography, visual effects, sound design and sound editing. This will offer Thalian Hall a chance to show off its new DCI High Definition digital projection system, along with its new Surround Sound system.
"It's awesome," said Thalian Hall manager Tony Rivenbark. "It's going to totally change going to the movies."
Thalian Hall will be able to screen first-run high-definition movies with quality comparable to commercial theaters.
The change was made necessary by the American film industry's decision to cease distributing motion pictures in film by the end of 2013. Henceforth, almost all commercial movie houses will project pictures in a digital format.
Conversion to the new system cost roughly $100,000, Rivenbark said. All funds for the project came from donations, he added, and none from taxpayer money.
Cinematique is presented by Thalian Hall with public radio WHQR.

Sometimes just doing a random check while surfing the internet causes some amazing and wonderful information to surface. Just today, 5/21/2013, I typed in the name "Eli Leon" and came up with a wonderful post about this interesting and intriguing researcher ,curator, and quilt collector of African American Improvisational quilts. I have known Eli for almost 30 years now. I met him via a newspaper "Want Ad" he had made while looking for these wonderful works in the San Francisco Bay Area during the beginning of his journey to seek out African American quilt makers. It turned out that I and my family created the works that Eli adored. This led to a long and fruitful relationship between us all.
Back to the internet....I just have to share Sherri Lynn Woods recent two part posts at http://daintytime.net/?s=eli+leon+collection...that she has written on A visit with Eli Leon and his quilts. She introduces us to another one of Eli's many and varied talents.....the creation of his very own personal Improvisational patchwork quilts. For those who love these quilts , it is so exciting to see what Eli has accomplished with his very on hands. He is indeed now one of us....an official bonafide quilt maker !!!!
Please visit http://daintytime.net/?s=eli+leon+collection and ENJOY this fantastic treat.I'm sure you won't be dissapointed.

Looking for admissions, majors or financial aid? Visit our Admissions Site.
Because we want all students to be successful at Grand View, we provide a variety of academic support services designed to lead every student successfully toward graduation.
In the sections below, you can review and locate the various support services on campus.
College is an exciting, but sometimes confusing, time of life. Students may feel an increased need for guidance and support. This is one reason Grand View University provides every student an academic advisor.
The academic advisor is a valuable resource and can offer assistance in:
• Choosing necessary courses and planning class schedules
• Assessing academic needs and referring students to available resources
• Making decisions for long-term goals.
Enhance the Advising Experience
Students' participation in the advising process will directly impact their advising experience. They can enhance their advising experience by:
• Meeting the advisor and getting acquainted early in the first semester
• Discussing goals and raising questions or concerns
• Becoming familiar with the general education requirements and major requirements
• Visiting with the advisor when they experience academic difficulty
• Consulting with the advisor if they would like to change a plan of study, course schedule, or major.
Faculty Advising Model
Faculty members serve as academic advisors. First-year students are assigned to their New Student Seminar instructor; this allows for a closer advisor-advisee connection during the first year. Upper-class students are typically assigned an advisor based on their major; this provides the opportunity to learn from the faculty's expert knowledge in the field of study and the major curriculum. Students who have not yet declared a major will be connected to a faculty member who can provide guidance in selecting a major. Once a major is declared, a faculty member in the major area will be identified to serve as the academic advisor.
Academic Advising Center
Students are also welcome to visit the Academic Advising Center, conveniently located in the Student Center. The Academic Advising Center is staffed with professionals who can provide support, answer questions and provide assistance when the academic advisor is not available.
Please contact the Academic Advising Center staff:
Cathy Brent
Director of Student Success
Student Center, Room 124
Wendy Fedler

Administrative Assistant
Regular office hours during the academic year: Monday–Friday, 8:15 a.m.– 4:30 p.m.
Summer hours: Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.– 4:00 pm.
Your student is our first priority, so we offer a range of academic support services to help students reach their academic goals.
Academic Enrichment
Grand View is committed to enriching the academic experience of every qualified student and endorses reasonable accommodations for participation in all programs and activities. Students with disabilities should schedule an appointment in the Academic Enrichment Center to:
• review university policies and procedures
• request accommodations
• develop an accommodation plan
• discuss personal advocacy issues
• assess learning difficulties and needs
Transitioning Accommodations from High School to College:
If a student has been receiving accommodations in high school and would like to continue using them at the college level, the student will need to complete the Support for Accommodation Request form (SAR) to determine which accommodations may continue. This should be completed by a school professional who knows the student and has access to accommodation records. If you have any questions about completing this form, please contact:
Joy Brandt
Associate Director of Student Success: Academic Support and Disability Services
Student Center, Student Life and Success, Room 127

Tricia works in circulation at the Civic Center Library.
This is an official blog for the Marin County Free Library.
All branches of Marin County Free Library will be closed on Monday, July 4 for Independence Day.
Sunday, February 10th, 8pm, CBS.
I. Can't. Wait.
Although I can't remember the first time I watched the Grammy Awards, I can't remember not watching them. It was always an event for my mother and myself, and we would be armchair critics of who was (or wasn't ) performing, and sometimes yell," What is this music!? Who is this person?" "Why did they win!" "That was awesome!" "Ohhh, he's so cute!"
Now we watch it over the phone together. ( My mom lives in Minnesota and has not yet graduated to Skype. )
This year there will be performances by Carrie Underwood; Rihanna; Maroon 5 and Adele to name a few. There will also be a special tribute to Dave Brubeck. Of course I must also say that my very own Prince is going to be there, though there isn't word yet if he will perform, but let's hope. ( He recently graced the cover of Billboard magazine, I might add, which is available at the library! )
Oh! I can't forget to mention the host:
Mr. LL Cool J.
Ladies Love Cool James.
Libraries Love Cool James.
I Love Cool James.
I imagine it as if he will be talking to me for three hours. This is a nice daydream. I recommend it. I follow him on Twitter and he sent a Tweet directly to me one time after I responded to a photo he tweeted! He tweeted to 'lil 'ol me! No joke, people. Have that one saved in the archives for sure!
If you need to prepare for the show, the Library has a great selection of CDs for you, such as:
Adele, 21
Maroon 5, Overexposed
Taylor Swift, Red ( This CD contains the earworm hit song," We are never ever getting back together." I warned you. )
Dave Brubeck, The Real Ambassadors
So have a little fun this weekend and catch up on your music -- it changes everything!

Apply on their website, because they won't be taking resumes or scheduling interviews at the career fair.
Fixed that for you.
Take all the free stuff you can get your hands on.
Wear a Jack Trice jersey and tell them you need a real job because the team is not doing well.
Let Prohm's Posse Ride: Hallice, Brady, Stu, Lard, Naz, Deonte, Monte, Matt, Simeon, Jordan, and Babb.
All work and interviews should be lined up ahead of time. The only reason you are there is to introduce yourself. Any company worth a damn will probably have their interview schedule full by the time the doors open.
Have a conversation with the reps, not a canned speech about yourself.
During the fair and interviews, get business cards. Follow up the next morning thanking them for the conversation/interview.
Just remember, most large companies treat the career fair as a gateway to get a real interview (for full time at least).

That is what I do.
1.) Iron your khaki pants and blue shirts.
2.) consider another pant/ shirt combo, because everyone goes with khaki and blue.
But maybe steer clear of red shirts - especially if you're really pale.
Sorry, but as an architect, that's all I'm qualified to advise you on. Seriously though, it's good advice.
Also dont make stuff up on your resume. Many companies send younger people who recently graduated from ISU that were involved in clubs and stuff and could know if you're making stuff up. (Which is what I'll be doing)

Be yourself.
Never attended the Engineering career day but always went to the Ag career day. I landed my job that I am in now last year at the career day during my senior year. I agree with all of what cmj said and will add a couple:
Unless you are a freshman, wear a suit. Freshman can get by with Khakis and a shirt because they are probably looking for entry level things. You don't want to miss out on a good job because you made a bad first impression.
Go early. I always tried to be there within the first half hour. By the end of the day the companies have seen and talked to so many people that things run together. They are more likely to remember you if you were one of the first ones they talked to. Not to mention interview slots fill up fast, going early gives you the best shot at getting a time that fits your schedule.
Take more resumes than you think you need. I always took 10-15. Almost everybody you talk to will ask for one.
Go to a booth that you may not necessarily be interested in first as a "warm up". Don't go right up to the company you want to work for as your first contact. It always took me a couple of booths before I was on my game.

So if I say I was on the football team as a practice player, what would happen?
I won't be recruiting this year but I have in past years. My number one piece of advice is don't just hand me your resume and stand there. Say something to introduce yourself and maybe something about the company (or hell, anything) while I'm giving it a quick scan. My second piece of advice is that if you answer every one of my questions with 1-2 words your resume is going to the bottom of the pile. You have about 30 seconds to a minute to make a positive impression and stand out among a couple hundred people. SAY SOMETHING! ANYTHING!
Third: You aren't fooling anybody by leaving off your GPA. If you have a bad GPA own it and show me why I should give you an interview anyway.
Be yourself and be sincere. Most of the company reps are using Engineers' Week to sell students on their company as well as looking for potential employees. Ask a lot of questions and enjoy the conversations you have with the reps. Take the process seriously, you never know what may come of it. My senior year, I talked to a lot of companies. One of them was Ford. I had a brief conversation with a rep at Engineers' Week and left my resume. It was nothing special, but that brief conversation turned into a phone interview, a plant trip and my first job.

FALSE. Physicians have long suspected that certain oral bacteria promote heart disease and stroke, possibly by contributing to the systemic inflammation that is related to stiffening of the arteries. But a review of 537 studies, published in Circulation, says that while gum disease and cardiovascular disease often go together, gum infections have not been shown to directly cause heart trouble. What's more, preventing and treating periodontal disease hasn't been proved to reduce the incidence of heart attacks or stroke.

Men's Squash Sweeps Brown, Prepares To Renew Rivalry With No. 3 Yale
The Princeton men's squash team swept Brown 9-0 Saturday to remain unbeaten at home and gain some momentum prior to Super Sunday's crucial Jadwin showdown with the third-ranked Yale Bulldogs.
Princeton won 27 of 29 individual games to improve to 4-5, 2-2 in the Ivy League. The Tigers got wins from every class, including freshmen Ben Leizman (No. 8) and Michael East (No. 9). The duo both earned 3-0 victories for the Tigers, who played in their first home match since a late November win over Williams College.
Princeton also got wins from its top three players, all of whom were coming off impressive Wednesday victories over the top-ranked Trinity Bantams. The junior duo of Samuel Kang (No. 1) and Tyler Osborne (No. 2) both won in three games, while senior co-captain Dylan Ward fought back from a close loss in the third set to dominate an 11-2 win in the fourth game.
Fellow senior co-captain Ash Egan dropped only seven points in his win at the No. 7 spot, while both Taylor Tutrone (No. 5) and Michael LeBlanc (No. 6) also won in three.
The toughest match of the day came at the No. 4 spot, but junior David Hoffman was able to overcome an 11-9 loss in the first game to win three close games. The victory closed out a 4-0 first shift en route to a comfortable win.
Princeton knows Sunday will be anything but comfortable, but it is looking forward to the challenge of taking on the third-ranked team in the nation. The match will be played in a three-shift format, with matches taking place on Courts 1-3. All matches will be streamed live on the Ivy League Digital Network.
Princeton defeated Yale 6-3 last season on its way to a second straight Ivy League championship.

Luccombe Manor Country House Hotel is one of only a few hotels on the Isle of Wight which welcomes our four-legged friends. We know how difficult it can sometimes be to find suitable dog friendly accommodation and how important it is to find a place you can bring all the family. If you wish to bring your well behaved dog along on your break please let us know at time of booking, there is a limit of one dog per room.
Dogs are allowed in our standard rooms, and with our beautiful cliff top location you have easy access via the cliff steps to the beach below so your pet can enjoy a splash in the sea! Rhylstone Gardens is directly opposite the Hotel which is a perfect spot to walk your pet and try and spot a red squirrel.
Unfortunately, some dogs have not been as "house-trained" as we would have hoped which is unpleasant for other guests and expensive to clean up, we therefore regret that any damage will incur a charge.

i_should_coco wrote:Thanks Pete.Hi Hawk - great write up!
I think you've described perfectly the reaction to hearing a proper set of horns. The way they can shift air can take your breath away, mostly the effortless fashion they do it in.
Of course, having horn sub-woofers helps a lot here, that way you get the full effect! But you do need a very large room. I do think you could get 90% of the way there with just the folded horns. Obviously you won't get as much bass, but the sense of presence will be there.
He's the system I use:
Bass: Conical 70Hz horn (ok, so they need a sub-woofer) with Vitavox AK-151 15" woofer.
Mid: Vitavox S2 on CN-157 dispersive horns (these ring a bit, so I'd expect the wooden Definitive ones to be better, but again, I woud expect a tractrix or LeCleac'h horn to be even better for the mid-range)
Treble: JBL 2405
All these components are available (with a bit of searching) and would most likely not break the bank (I reckon you could get all the drive units for <£2k). Some woodwork and fine tuning and well...
Ok, so the Kondo is a huge price, but again I reckon a decent valve amp and some horns will get you a long way down the road. Anyway, let's put it like this, my horns may look shit, but I ain't going back to conventional speakers.
The effortless shifting of air as you say is remarkable, and I can now honestly say I understand where you Horn lovers are coming from. Kevin did run them without the bass bins briefly, and of course the wall of sound shrunk but if I had heard them on their own first then I would still have been very very impressed, and in fact I was, its just the full monty setup is in another world all together

Scottsville Police say a historic cabin burned to the ground over the weekend.
Police say no one noticed the cabin burning, because of fog and rain.
Tuesday morning, a cabin inside Dumont Park was found burned to the ground.
Police say it was arson, but they are finding it difficult to get leads from a pile of rubble.
"Our community can do better than this in showing gratitude toward it. We were really trying to do this up right, and this is what happens," Friends of Dumont Park President, Matt Pedigo said.
As a Civil War landmark, in the early 2000's Dumont Park became apart of the National Registry of Historical Places.
Pedigo said the cabin was just one of many projects they were working on to fix the park up.
"The cabin itself was meant to be an interpretive replica of a mid-19th century homestead, because this was a significant civil war site. We wanted to portray not only the life of the soldiers, but also the life of the civilians in the mid-19th century," he said/
The cabin was rebuilt from 200-year-old wood two years ago.
"We're extremely disappointed to see something like this occur, but we're not going to give up," said Pedigo.
He doesn't know if they'll get the money back.
"We're looking at least $10,000, and all of the sudden to come up here and have it burnt all the way down. Part of the money that was raised comes slow and we were still in the building process," said Scottsville Mayor, Rob Cline.
"We'd like to install some security cameras around the area at some point. If we can't catch the thugs that are doing this at least discourage it from happening it again," Pedigo said.
Pedigo is planning to build another cabin.
If you have any information about this case, call Crime Stoppers at 781-CLUE.

Evelyn Schwabacher, 51, and her son, Dominic, 23, were left with nothing but the bags of clothes they ran out of their home with the day that Hurricane Sandy struck Staten Island.
Ms. Schwabacher lived almost all her life in a two-story home on Zustan St. in New Dorp Beach, Staten Island. She grew up there. She returned there and raised with help from her parents her son and daughter after her husband died 18 years ago. And she said goodbye to her mother there when the elderly woman died a year before Hurricane Sandy stormed through the island.
But when ocean water filled the house all the way up to its second floor destroying all she owned, multiple disaster relief agencies told her she was ineligible for help.
"We lost everything," Ms. Schwabacher said. "And when I say everything I mean everything."
The only belongings that survived were two photos that hung above their fireplace mantle, one of her children and one of her parents taken the day they married. For days following the flood, her father carried that wedding photo with him wherever he went.
FEMA gave Ms. Schwabacher's eighty-year-old father enough to enable him to leave Staten Island and its memories behind. He bought an inexpensive condo in Florida and began a new life.
But FEMA said that Ms. Schwabacher and her son, who together paid her father a nominal $400/month rent, were ineligible for disaster recovery assistance. So she contacted Catholic Charities Disaster Case Manager Valeriya Osipova for help. Ms. Osipova contacted Red Cross. The agency initially approved, then reversed its approval of rental assistance, citing FEMA's determination as its reason for denial. Ms. Osipova also spoke with an attorney Staten Island Legal Services.
Meanwhile, things turned ugly in the apartment that Ms. Schwabacher and her son temporarily shared with a friend after the hurricane hit. So she called Ms. Osipova on a Saturday afternoon to ask that she help her move out quickly. Ms. Osipova worked with the social service agency, Project Hospitality, to immediately obtain and pay for a rental room at Cosmopolitan Hotel for Ms. Schwabacher and her son.
They stayed at the hotel for two weeks. But they needed a long-range plan. They could not afford to live on their own with the income Ms. Schwabacher earned as a waitress and he earned working minimum wage jobs. Similar to her father, she wanted, she said, to put behind her the nightmare of Hurricane Sandy and the hard times that followed.
A cousin living in Stone Mountain, Georgia suggested Ms. Schwabacher and her son move there where rents are cheap and jobs are plentiful. Since Ms. Schwabacher had no savings, her disaster case manager made the move possible by drawing on Sandy relief funds to cover Ms. Schwabacher's rental deposit and first month's rent.
Ms. Schwabacher phoned Ms. Osipova for help on a Saturday afternoon. Thanks to the support and counseling Ms. Osipova provided, Ms. Schwabacher and her son moved to Georgia, found work and rented an apartment two weeks later. Ms. Schwabacher and her son drove with a cousin to Georgia. She interviewed for a waitressing job at a local International House of Pancakes the following day. She and her son then found an affordable one-bedroom apartment. The $900 deposit and first month's rent were paid with Catholic Charities Sandy Relief funds. Meanwhile, Ms. Schabacher's son applied for multiple jobs and expects to land one at Wal-Mart.
"It's still hard for me to believe that within 20 days of calling Catholic Charities for help I was able to land a job, find an apartment and began my life again," Ms. Schwabacher said. "Valeriya stood by me; if it weren't for her, I had no place to go."

President Peres' greetings for the New Year
Greetings from the President of the State of Israel to the Jewish Communities in the Diaspora on the occasion of Rosh Hashana 5774 September 2013
President Shimon Peres
Copyright: GPO archive photo
President Shimon Peres. (GPO archive photo)
Dear Friends,
I am happy to extend my warmest good wishes to the Jewish Communities around the world, in my name and on behalf of the people of Israel at large, for the New Year – a new beginning – which I pray will bring peace, stability, economic growth and opportunities leading to great achievements.
At the onset of Rosh Hashana, and as an omen of optimism for the year to come, Israelis and Palestinians have returned to the negotiating table with full force. At this time of hope for the future, we pray that these efforts will yield the long-awaited results we have all been yearning for, allowing us to enjoy the fruits of peace with hope in our hearts for a brighter future for us all.
In the Middle East the dust has yet to settle on the dramatic changes that have swept across our region. We hope that from this period of instability will emerge the chance for the countries around us to find the freedom and prosperity for which they aspire, and that a promising dawn will rise over this part of the world. In these turbulent times, Israel remains an island of stability in a sea of uncertainty and will continue to stand strong in the face of adversity – whether it be terror, Iran's nuclear ambitions, or missile attacks on our citizens. Our prayers for a calm sea go hand in hand with the unyielding shield which we hold around our island.
Israel has not been resting on its laurels and has continued to advance to new frontiers in science, technology and medicine, drawing on our exceptional human resources to spearhead these efforts. It has carved for itself an ever stronger foothold in these domains through exciting innovative and creative breakthroughs used to finding solutions for such issues as water and food scarcity that will constitute a huge relief to communities suffering from drought and other environmental issues, alongside cutting-edge techniques in brain research that will change our lives, and significant discoveries in space and the ocean's bed that will shed light on so many of the mysteries of the world, among many others.
While many challenges still lie ahead, we are confident of our strength and are ever more determined of our purpose as a contributing nation. The bond which has linked the Jewish communities abroad with Israel and the adage of being responsible for one another remind us that we are not alone on this mission. In this aspiration, the engagement of the young generation is essential, and we hope that each and every youngster will join us on this journey towards a better tomorrow. Together, we shall continue to strive for a better world – Tikkun Olam – and for an Israel in which moral values are fundamental to our way of life.
From Jerusalem, I wish all the Jewish communities the world over a year of peace, joy, good health and prosperity.
Shana Tova U'Metuka!
Shimon Peres

Results tagged ' God '
I Know The Feeling
Story #1: During the summer of 2004, my Dad and I coached a Little League baseball team that reminds me a lot of the 2009 Minnesota Twins. We had one really good pitcher (Zane Stratton to Nick Blackburn) and a few guys who could hit, but other than that not much (we played decent D, again like the current Twins). We always had a chance against other similar-ranked teams, but against teams that had more talent we had to do everything perfect. One errant throw (and this was Little League, so imagine that!), a few costly outs from our big bats, or a couple of meatballs from our ace would immediately and automatically doom us to defeat.
Story #2: The next year, 2005, brought another Little League team with even worse results. We couldn't pitch, couldn't hit, and could only basically field the ball (nothing spectacular). On one dreary Minnesota night, however, our team was taking on the best team in the league and beating them by 7-8 runs. For whatever reason (luck, primarily) everything was going right for them and wrong for us. Yet, with an obvious thunderstorm fast approaching, our team ran out of pitchers (i.e. our "ace" was done). With all the parents and grandparents starting to pack up the fort and get the umbrellas out in anticipation of the game being called, all we had to do was get three outs. My memory of those next 5-10 minutes is a bit hazy, but I'm not quite sure we even got one of those. The other team batted around twice, our guys didn't catch/field the ball on defense, and at the exact second the game-winning run crossed the plate for the opponent, the clouds opened up and it began to pour. It was almost like a message from God that we weren't supposed to win that game.
On a macro-level, the Twins are very much like the team from Story #1. We can compete with our equals, but (unless absolutely everything breaks right) we get squashed by our superiors (Anaheim and New York, primarily).
On a micro-level, though, as in tonight, the Twins are a lot like that sorry 2005 Little League team…struggling to do anything consistantly right and, at the same time, getting all the bad breaks.
I'm sad to have to say this, but for the first time all season I can definitively say that, barring a miracle, the Twins will not win the AL Central this season. Will I still be tuning in and rooting for them down the stretch? Yes. But realistically, this team is a mess and cannot be fixed in the short time until October.
We "nabbed" Carl Pavano today. Gee whiz, what a move. He's been just as bad as any of our current starters so far this season. In all honesty, sending down R.A. Dickey was probably a more important move than getting Pavano.
Preview (53-56, 3rd, 2.5 GB CWS): Carl Pavano (9-8, 5.37) vs. Justin Verlander (12-5, 3.29).
