Seniors Kama Griffitts and Erica Barnes scored in double-digits for Arizona, but the Wildcats (4-12, 0-5) fell to No. 4 Stanford (16-1, 5-0), 96-52 at McKale Center on Friday night.
Griffitts scored 12 points on 4-of-8 shooting, including three 3-pointers to lead Arizona. She also dished out a team-high three assists.
Barnes scored 10 points and grabbed four rebounds.
As a team, Arizona shot 40 percent from the field, including a 39 percent mark from the three-point line.
The Wildcats held Stanford to a season-low 33 percent from the charity stripe.
In the first half, the Cardinal made eight three-pointers and shot 67 percent from the field to lead, 52-31 at halftime. Stanford matched its three-point sharpshooting in the second half, making seven additional shots from behind the arc for a total of 15.
Previously, the most three-pointers by a UA opponent so far this season was five.
"They shot the ball well all over the floor, from behind the three-point line especially," Arizona Head Coach Niya Butts said. "They rebounded well. When they missed they had an opportunity to score and they did. I thought first half, early first half we competed. I don't think we kept the same intensity in the second half. I thought our effort could have been a little bit better in the second half."
Senior Chiney Ogwumike led Arizona with 24 points and 12 rebounds.
The Wildcats will return to McKale to host No. 15 California on Monday, Jan. 20 at 3 p.m. The game will be broadcast live on the Pac-12 Networks.

Postgame Quotes
Head Coach Niya Butts
Opening Statement
"Give credit to Stanford. They shot the ball well all over the floor, from behind the three-point line especially. They rebounded well. When they missed they had an opportunity to score and they did. I thought first half, early first half we competed. I don't think we kept the same intensity in the second half. I thought our effort could have been a little bit better in the second half."
On coming out with more intensity to start the game:
"I thought we were executing what we wanted to do early defensively and offensively, but we didn't do that In the second half. I didn't like our demeanor on the floor. I don't think we competed for the entire game. For every game before, at least I've been able to say I thought we competed to the buzzer."
On Stanford:
"They share the ball really well. What you're most impressed with out of every statistical category is their shooting percentage. They shoot 63 percent from the field and 47 percent from the 3-point line. They also had 28 assists on 40 field-goals. That's pretty good."
On what went right early:
"I thought we were playing well defensively. We went to our zone on the defensive end. When we were in our man, they scored very quickly. It was kind of a pick your poison, so to speak, either give up a quick two with 6 seconds off the shot clock or run the shot clock down and shoot a contested three. With Stanford, you kind of have to do that and when I thought it went well we were talking, the cutters were in front of us, and when we got a little tired and got behind defensively, they started getting more shots."
On Chiney Ogwumike and the Stanford offense:
"They have a lethal combination. They have a player on the inside that not a lot of people can guard, but they also have a perimeter of shooters that can make shots from deep."
Senior guard Kama Griffitts
Opening Statement:
"The first half we felt like we were there, we were playing hard. But mentally, in the second half, we just weren't in it."
On what needs to change:
"Our toughness, we need to make sure we execute our game plan, especially defensively."
On finishing the game:
"You just have to keep playing. The game is not over until it's over."
On slowing down Chiney Ogwumike:
"The guards needed to pressure the wings, and I feel like we didn't do that. So we did give Chiney some easy buckets but all the way around everyone needed to their jobs, but unfortunately we didn't do that today."
On No. 15 Cal:
"I am excited, this game is over we are onto the next one. Like Erica said, we still believe we can win. Every team is beatable so we just have to go in ready."
Senior forward Erica Barnes
Opening Statement:
"I feel like we gave our all in the first half. Mentally, we weren't there in the second half."
On the start of the game:
"I honestly believed that we could win and until this day I will believe that. We just really have to find it within ourselves. The toughness and our mental thoughts and all that other stuff, we really have to find it within ourselves."
On slowing down Chiney Ogwumike:
"We wanted to limit her touches. Obviously, she was getting most of her points in the paint."
On the eight-player lineup:
"Obviously, it is a struggle because we only have eight players because we are tired, but we can't keep going back to that. We just have to keep pushing forward."
On putting it all together:
"It's weird because we have different spurts in different games, so the games before we wouldn't start out right and then pick up in the second half. But this game we had a great first half and then not in the second. So I feel like if we put it all together, we will be fine."

Alcohol poisoning is a serious — and sometimes deadly — consequence of drinking large amounts of alcohol in a short period of time. Drinking too much too quickly can affect your breathing, heart rate, body temperature and gag reflex and potentially lead to coma and death.
Alcohol poisoning can also occur when adults or children accidentally or intentionally drink household products that contain alcohol.
A person with alcohol poisoning needs immediate medical attention. If you suspect someone has alcohol poisoning, call for emergency medical help right away.
Alcohol poisoning signs and symptoms include:
It's not necessary to have all these signs and symptoms before you seek help. A person who is unconscious or can't be awakened is at risk of dying.
If you suspect that someone has alcohol poisoning — even if you don't see the classic signs and symptoms — seek immediate medical care.
If you're with someone who has been drinking a lot of alcohol and you see any of the signs or symptoms above, here's what to do:
It can be difficult to decide if you think someone is drunk enough to warrant medical intervention, but it's best to err on the side of caution. You may worry about the consequences for yourself or your friend or loved one, particularly if you're underage. But the consequences of not getting the right help in time can be far more serious.
Alcohol in the form of ethanol (ethyl alcohol) is found in alcoholic beverages, mouthwash, cooking extracts, some medications and certain household products. Ethyl alcohol poisoning generally results from drinking too many alcoholic beverages, especially in a short period of time.
Other forms of alcohol — including isopropyl alcohol (found in rubbing alcohol, lotions and some cleaning products) and methanol or ethylene glycol (a common ingredient in antifreeze, paints and solvents) — can cause another type of toxic poisoning that requires emergency treatment.
A major cause of alcohol poisoning is binge drinking — a pattern of heavy drinking when a male rapidly consumes five or more alcoholic drinks within two hours, or a female downs at least four drinks within two hours. An alcohol binge can occur over hours or last up to several days.
You can consume a fatal dose before you pass out. Even when you're unconscious or you've stopped drinking, alcohol continues to be released from your stomach and intestines into your bloodstream, and the level of alcohol in your body continues to rise.
Unlike food, which can take hours to digest, alcohol is absorbed quickly by your body — long before most other nutrients. And it takes a lot more time for your body to get rid of the alcohol you've consumed.
Most alcohol is processed by your liver, and in general, it takes about one hour for your liver to process (metabolize) the alcohol in one drink.
One drink is defined as:
Mixed drinks may contain more than one serving of alcohol and take even longer to metabolize.
A number of factors can increase your risk of alcohol poisoning, including:
Severe complications can result from alcohol poisoning, including:
In addition to checking for visible signs and symptoms of alcohol poisoning, your doctor will likely order blood and urine tests to check blood alcohol levels and identify other signs of alcohol toxicity, such as low blood sugar.
Alcohol poisoning treatment usually involves supportive care while your body rids itself of the alcohol. This typically includes:
Adults and children who have accidentally consumed methanol or isopropyl alcohol may need hemodialysis — a mechanical way of filtering waste and toxins from your system — to speed the removal of alcohol from their bloodstream.
Home remedies for alcohol poisoning won't work. This is an emergency situation.
You can't reverse the effects of alcohol poisoning, and you could actually make things worse through some actions. Here's what doesn't work:

Submitted by Lee (not verified) on
I believe the local movement is the Longmont Holiday Bike Program. His point is that know one chimes in on any of the stories focused on people doing something positive.
But as you well know, the stories about the dopers attract a lot more attention. And your site is driven by user visits and ad revenues.
Your site, velonews. any article on doping as 20-70+ comments. Read a story about Katie Compton crushing it Europe on velonews and you see there are zero comments.
It's just a lot more "fun" to tear people down than build them up.

Agree. But that doesn't mean people don't listen
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
I have the luxury of seeing what articles people read based upon page views and just because an article has no comments does not mean it does not get attention. Maybe there just isn't much to say on some of the "good" stories except, "This is great" and therefore few do comment.
But there are also plenty of articles I and others post that I think "dang this is great" and the traffic to them is low. I bet we could post a story about the ACA switching from #2 pencils to #1 and it would generate more traffic than Ryan Van Duzer winning $4000 bucks for Community cycles.
While we do our best to provide balanced set of news, all things racing draws attention and comments. The Colorado community is very athletically dedicated to cycling.

Yep, the new Whole Foods at Trolley Square has a burrito bar, among a plethora of other ready-to-eat options, floor-to-ceiling shelves stocked with fresh, local and delicious products, a natural body section that rivals Bath and Body Works and even in-house dry aged beef.
Whole Foods is closing it's 4th South location and heading down the street to Trolley Square. Bigger and better, baby, bigger and better.
I got an exclusive sneak peak of the new store last week and have been counting down the days 'til those sliding doors are open to the public. As a self-proclaimed Whole Foods junkie I was only slightly excited to get a glimpse of what is sure to be my go-to option for lunch Monday-Friday, as well as my a.m. espresso break and possibly after-work snack (yes, I still eat like I'm in 6th grade).
Did I mention Taco Tuesdays lunch deals? Because it's on.
I'm even more excited to present an exclusive offer to our readers: The store, which opens on March 14, is offering sneak peak tours of the new location for 1,000 locals on the 10th and 11th, which sold out in 7 days. Lucky for you, Whole Food is giving SLmag readers some VIP access. On Friday, March 11th at 4:15 pm we are offering up 20 slots to tour the store, taste the treats and receive a Trolley Square branded reusable bag (and bragging right that you saw it before anyone else). You'll be able to experience the asian wok, gelato bar and pizza station for yourself before anyone else.
So how do you get in? Easy, leave a comment below telling us your fav part about Whole Foods! We'll pick 20 winners to get in on the action!

On December 8, 1943, James Douglas "Jim" Morrison was born. The lead singer of the Doors lived a short, tragic life. He was only 27 when he died of heart failure in Paris, France. But, musically, Morrison accomplished a tremendous amount in his six years with the Doors. As Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Vice President of Exhibitions and Curatorial Jim Henke wrote in his book, The Jim Morrison Scrapbook: "From 1967 to 1970, during his spectacular zenith, Jim Morrison seemingly had it all. He was an internationally revered rock star with numerous hit records to his credit, a dynamic stage performer, an alluring sex symbol, and a published poet." The Doors formed in the summer of 1965 around Morrison and keyboardist Ray Manzarek, who'd met at UCLA's film school. A year later the group signed with Elektra Records, recording six landmark studio LPs – including their '67 self-titled debut, Morrison Hotel and L.A. Woman – and a live album for the label. The group's dark, brooding personality came largely from singer Jim Morrison.
The Museum is home to many Jim Morrison artifacts that help tell the Morrison story, such as his Cub Scout uniform and a poem Morrison wrote when he was 10 years old entitled "The Pony Express," which he claimed in a 1968 interview with Rolling Stone was the first poem he ever wrote. Among the more poignant and telling pieces in the Museum's collection is a letter that a probation officer in Dade County, Florida, sent to Morrison's father after Morrison was found guilty of indecent exposure and profanity after he allegedly exposed himself onstage during a show in Miami – a verdict that was eventually overturned. In the letter, the Florida official expresses concern about Morrison's condition and asks his father for additional information. On October 21, 1970, Morrison's father replied, stating that he had not seen his son in five years and that he had written Morrison a letter "severely criticizing his behavior and strongly advising him to give up any idea of singing or any connection with a musical group because of what I considered to be a complete lack of talent in this direction." Less than a year later, Morrison was gone, but as he wrote in "An American Prayer": Death makes angels of us all/And gives us wings/Where we had shoulders/Smooth as raven's claws.
The Doors were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993. Eddie Vedder inducted the group, and later performed a short set with the remaining members. In the clip below, Vedder and the Doors deliver an electrifying performance of "Roadhouse Blues."

Man, the folks in LA really got it good with this series. Hopefully you caught the last one in August, because we're totally jealous here in NYC.
Once again, Mark de Clive-Lowe, Miguel Atwood Ferguson, and Dexter Story have come together to present their most recent SCORED installment called A Trip Beyond the Moon.
On Monday December 12th, the three comrades will be paying tribute to the "cinematic genius" of Georges Méliès. Always thorough, the guys will be making sure to cover everywhere from his earliest pieces to more recent work driven by Méliès' groundbreaking innovations in special effects.
Per usual, Mark, Miguel, and Dexter will be bringing the aural treats with VJ Synesthete on the visual mix. Stimulation for days.
Two unique sets will take place through the course of the night: one at 8PM and one at 9.30PM – all for one admission price!

Extendable baton in the glove compartment.
Seriously, that's about it. Mace freaks me the fuck out, and I refuse to ever own a gun.
Extendable baton in the glove compartment.
Seriously, that's about it. Mace freaks me the fuck out, and I refuse to ever own a gun.
Seven's right though, without the 2nd amendment there would be a lot less gun crime in the US. Guns would still be obtained by people who REALLY wanted them, but still...
Not saying I want the 2nd amendment done away with, because it's dumb to take away rights from people after they've had the right for hundreds of years, but it's just a thought I had.
I like guns for recreational purposes, not for killing people.
No, I disagree, it's pretty smart to take rights away from people that cause problems
I mean, people get butthurt over the idea of taking out "One nation under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance and that wasn't even in the original pledge. Or when a group of kids sang "We love the USA" instead of "God bless the USA."
It's stupid and people are stupid.
I said that.
However, banning guns would stop a lot of people outright.
It's okay to support armed rebellion, it's happened before. xD
In fact, I believe the constitution says that civilians SHOULD rebel against an unlawful government or something.
And I think it was Jefferson who said that a new constitution should be written every 20 years... but then we would be like France.

Biking, hiking, boating, floating and horseback riding; just a few ways to get around the scenic ranges of the stunning Catskills. Whether you're coasting along the Hudson, hiking through one of the many mountain trails or taking the Delaware and Ulster Railroad, you're sure to find acres upon acres of beautiful wildlife.
For those craving a more civilized experience, the Catskills are home to several cultural festivals, such as the Belleayre Music Festival and a slew of seasonal events in Bethel Woods-home of the historical Woodstock Music and Arts Festival. For a trip down memory lane, or a jaunt through the forest, there is nothing quite like the Catskills.

I liked a project about image capture!!! And I want to implement it!
Could anybody provide me some source about it (where can I find information) and how to make it. The main ideas and key source about it. If it is possible.
And one more question: do I need to buy books or I can find all source online?
And I want to learn as much as I can! I have some experience in Java programming. I'm a beginner in Lego, but not in Java. (I did few courseworks)
I have not bought camera yet, I'd like to know what is better and cheaper and how to get it.
I found some information about video traking, but it is needed additional software, as I understand.
I dont think that I will need it. But Wireless camera is cheaper than NXTCam-v3. I'd like to know can I use it?
Thank you!

Arizona head coach Niya Butts and the women's basketball staff signed one of the best classes in program history, the program announced on Wednesday.
Entering the signing period, the Wildcat class was named one of the country's top 25 classes and third-best in the Pac-12.
JaLea Bennett, Taryn Griffey, Charise Holloway, Cherice Harris and Chy Cunningham will join the Wildcats for the 2014-15 season.
"Overall, we think this class has been pretty good," Butts said. "We are bringing in some talented young ladies and they are going to be ready to play immediately. They have been working hard, they know the value of good work ethic and I think that's the thing that is going to set them apart from the other freshmen in the country."
The five players will join a stacked roster, including current junior Candice Warthen, sophomores Keyahndra Cannon, Nyre Harris and Farrin Bell and freshmen LaBrittney Jones, Dejza James, Ashley Merrill and Breanna Workman.
JaLea Bennett
5-10, shooting guard
Grand Prairie, Texas
Plans to major in: Criminal Justice Studies
High School: Mansfield Timberview High School
First Team All-District in junior season
Three-year starter
Averaged 9.6 ppg/5.7 rpg in her junior season
Butts: "She is a super-athletic young lady. She rebounds very well from the guard position, can play multiple positions, has a strong body and can get inside and finish with the best of them. She is a tremendous athlete and will help us defensively as well."
Jalea's Take:
"I chose Arizona because they were very committed during my recruiting process. When they said they wanted me, they meant it. They were at all of my games, were the first to call me, and I developed very strong relationships with them right off the bat. On my visit, the campus was beautiful, everyone was nice and I feel like I'm at home when I'm at Arizona. The team is very funny and I feel like I'll fit in with them. The program is a great fit for me as well. I feel comfortable with the staff, and players. I am also excited about our recruiting class! I get along with all of the girls very well, and I got the chance to play against some of them as well. It will be great to play with them. It's going to be fun!"
Taryn Griffey
5-6, point guard
Seattle, Wash.
Plans to major in: Business
High School: Dr. Phillips High School
State MVP her freshman and sophomore years
State Player of the Year in sophomore season
Brighthouse Player of the Year
All-Academic and Metrowest Highest GPA
All-Southern team
Averaged 16.4 ppg and 7 rpg in soph season
Butts: "One of the better players in the country, Taryn has suffered a couple injuries in the past. She is hungry and just ready to get back on the floor. Her quickness, athleticism and ability to shoot the long-range shot is going to be much-needed for us. It will add a perimeter threat for us that is going to help us win a lot of games."
Taryn's Take:
"I chose Arizona because it felt like home the way the coaches treated me and the way the players reacted to me while I was there! They made me feel like that was where I had to be and like they needed me there! But not just only about basketball I loved the academics part of it too. It's the main reason why I chose them! I want to major in business and there business program is ranked 22 in the nation for public schools! I know that basketball isn't going to last forever so to have a business degree from Arizona will take me far!! Also I feel like I can contribute to the team and considering the 2014 class that's coming in I feel like we can shock a lot of people and put Arizona on the map! I don't want to be known as Ken Griffey Jr's daughter I want to be known as Taryn Griffey because I am my own person I want to make a name for myself and put my school on the map and I feel like Arizona is where I can do that! Bear Down."
Charise Holloway
5-9 guard
Tracy, Calif.
Plans to major in: Law
High School: St. Mary's High School
Four-year starter
Butts: "She is a grinder. This kid plays so hard on the floor and gives you everything she has. She's a great rebounder for her size. She is deceptively quick on the floor with the basketball. She can finish in traffic, can take contact and still make plays. Defensively, she is greedy. She gets after it on the perimeter, gets her hands on the ball a lot because she's so active. We are looking forward to her coming in and being an asset right away."
Charise's Take:
"When I first arrived at Arizona for my official visit, I was coming down the airport escalator and was greeted with a hand clap and cheering. It was Coach Butts, she greeted my family and I with such warmth. During my campus tour I fell in love with the dorms, athletic facilities, and the beauty of the campus, but what excited me the most, is when I met the academic counselor Samantha Amato, she was awesome! I can't wait to work with her. I appreciate the compassion and the warmth of which I received from the coaching staff. They are so easy-going, it was like we've known each other for a long time. I have to admit Coach McEntire had a positive impact on me which enabled me to make the correct decision with the right University. I'm proud to be a part of the Wildcats family. Bear Down! "
Cherice Harris
5-8 point guard
Rancho Cucamonga, Calif.
Plans to major in: Psychology or Sociology
High School: Etiwanda High School
Four-year starter
Averaged 12.0 ppg in junior season
first-team baseline league
second- team inland valley
Butts: "She is a very poised young lady. When she is on the floor, her temperament is very calm and steady—something that is definitely needed at the point guard position and the two-guard position. She is going to bring a solid feel for the game. Her poise with the basketball is incredible for someone so young and we are looking forward to having her as a part of our family."
Cherice's Take:
"The reason I chose Arizona is because I like their up-tempo style of play and the relationships that the coaches have with the players. I feel the staff is really great with the players on the court but at the same time they continue to teach life lessons off the court as well. When I visited Arizona, the atmosphere and energy was great! I just feel right at home at Arizona!"
Chy Cunningham
5-10 guard
Columbus, Miss.
Plans to major in: Physical Therapy
Transfer From: Paris Junior College
Averaged 13 ppg
Shot 50 percent from the field
Butts: "She is someone who is a bigger guard, can run the point and do a lot of things on the perimeter. She can also play inside because of her size. She is a very smart basketball player and loves the game. She's a basketball junkie and when you have a player that stays in the gym and always wants to work, that is going to feed into the rest of the team and we are very excited about having her."
Chy's Take:
"I chose the University of Arizona because not only is the school great academically, but I feel like I will grow as a person after I'm finished with basketball and enter the real world. I'm very comfortable with the coaching staff and feel like they have my best interest at heart. Coach Sean has been consistent throughout my whole recruiting process and he still is... That just shows how loyal he is as a coach. I also feel like coach Butts will be a great mentor for me because she knows what it takes to be successful on and off the court.. Everything happens for a reason.. A door was opened for me and this is what I've always dreamed of... and I couldn't let this opportunity slip away..."

Capodimonte Royal Wood - Naples
The Royal Woods, the green lung of the city of Naples that extends around the Royal Palace of Capodimonte for some one-hundred-twenty-four hectares, was born in 1734 as the hunting reserve of King Carlo III of Bourbon, fascinated by the natural beauty of the hill.
Before that era, the hill was the site of rural settlements, monasteries and country hamlets, and it was not util after 1734 that the borders of the Royal Site of Capodimonte were drawn up, and they have remained more or less unchanged to this day.
Unlike other royal parks, the Capodimonte Wood was designed to be totally independent from the Royal Palace which is located to one side, and it was designed according to its destination as an area for hunting, which was not only one of the King's passions, but was also an actual "State function" that involved a colourful Court made up of ministers, nobility, foreign guests, as well as artists and painters called upon to paint the various scenes.
In 1738, the architect Ferdinand Sanfelice organised the architectural plans for the Park according to an obviously Baroque style.
Radiating from the entrance esplanade, there are five very long tree-lined avenues, which are filled with numerous marble statues, and intersected in a play of perspectives by minor avenues within the thick natural foliage of holm-oaks, lindens, maples, elms, oaks, elders, briars, nettles, butcher's broom, tarassaco and cyclamens.
The middle lane once ended at a colossal statue known as "the Giant" and now situated near the "Fontana di Mezzo" and, in part, composed of ancient fragments.
Sanfelice also studied the characteristics of three species that were appropriate for the shelter and reproduction of the different types of game that were to populate the wood.
Today, inside the Park, which can be accessed through three entrances, the Porta Piccola (Small Gate), Porta Grande (Large Gate) and Porta Miano (Miano Gate), among the more valuable and antique trees there are oaks, chestnut trees, cypresses, pines and extremely rare camphor-laurel trees.
Dotted among the greenery there are various buildings which were originally used for the operations of Courtly life, for cult purposes and for the functions of agricultural and zootechnics and factories:
- the "Casino della Regina" (Queen's Hunting Lodge), the residence of the Queen Mother and was also the site for private receptions and parties;
- the "Palazzina dei Principi" (Princes' Building);
- the "Church of San Gennaro", built in 1745 for the porpose of providing religious assistance to the many workes who lived in the Park;
- the "Eremo dei Cappuccini" (Cappuccini Hermitage), in the Neo-gothic style, which today houses a school;
- the "Fabbrica della Manifattura di Porcellana" (Porcelain Manufacturing Factory);
- the "Fagianeria", with exotic pheasants;
- the "Cellaio" (Cellar);
- the "Vaccheria" (Dairy Farm), which is a real farm.
During the 19th century, the entire Capodimonte area was the protagonist of major changes.
Though confirming its primary intended use, the woods gradually took on the character of an English garden under the Reign of Ferdinando I.
With the accession of Ferdinando II, the park underwent a radical transformation and became more suited to taking walks than to hunting.
The transformation also extended to the buildings which were enlarged and embellished.
The advent of the Savoia dynasty in the 19th century represented continuity for the complex, and only a few parts were modified.
The only remaining vegetable garden is the Giardino Torre or Orto Reale (Tower Garden or Royal Vegetable Garden) at the North-East edge of the wood where there were the first trees that produced "d'ò monte" cherries.
The definitive change came with the institution of the "Real Orto Botanico" (Royal Botanical Gardens) of Naples, which examined the "botanical strategies of royal installations".
At the end of last century a large number of palm trees were introduced including a unique exemplar of a silver-palm.
In 1928 it gained the status of a "Park" and was opened to the public.
The largest green areas of Naples, but is also an ideal place for the study and conservation of rare plants. (Carmen Grieco)

I will be speaking at the Imagine No Religion 3 conference in Kamloops, British Columbia (Canada) this May 17th through 19th (2013). For details (including registration, on-site daycare, entertainments, venue, speaker lineup, etc.) click the previous link (or to just look at registration options right away, click here). The event will be held at the Kamloops Coast Hotel and Convention Centre (where there may still be rooms available at the special convention rate). I am presently scheduled to speak in the 1:30pm slot on Saturday the 18th (but that can often change).
My talk will be "Imagining the Study of Jesus without Religion: Bayes' Theorem and the Quest for a Historical Jesus." This will summarize key elements of my book Proving History: Bayes's Theorem and the Quest for the Historical Jesus but with added emphasis and details on what it might mean to study Jesus if there were no religious assumptions built up even in secular scholarship–if Jesus were treated the same way as Hercules, for instance. Copies of my book will be sold at the event. I'll be happy to sign any you buy or bring. I'll be at the whole conference.
There is also a special free banquet and meet & greet for CFI members Sunday night, which I will likely attend.
[Update: the video of my talk is now available online.]

Spotlight for Career Services ProfessionalsSpotlight for Recruiting ProfessionalsSeptember 18, 2013
Employers plan to hire 7.8 percent more new college graduates for their U.S. operations in 2013-14 than they did in 2012-13, according to results of NACE's Job Outlook 2014 survey.
Overall, employers anticipate hiring 12 percent more new college graduates in 2013-14 than they did in 2012-13. This includes the hires they anticipate for all of their U.S. and international locations.
Please note that the current projection cannot be compared to the overall hiring projections of past years because those surveys did not differentiate between respondents' hiring plans for their U.S. operations and for their international operations. NACE's Job Outlook 2014 survey marks the first time the association has asked employers to provide hiring projections for both their U.S.-based and international locations.
NACE collected data for the Job Outlook 2014 survey from its college recruiting professional members from August 5 through September 13, 2013. A total of 208 surveys were returned for a response rate of 19.8 percent. NACE will release the Job Outlook 2014 report in the fall.

Global process ownership, which means end-to-end process ownership that starts within the organization and then spreads across functions, is a critical goal for mature service-delivery organizations.
Efforts that seek to build, manage, operate, and improve horizontal processes that cut across functional lines can drive cost and performance improvements and speed the integration of technology. Many mature service-delivery organizations have been successful within functional silos but continue to look for truly cross-functional, global end-to-end processes.
This webcast will focus on driving process efficiencies, controls, and standards through cross-functional process design and ownership, cutting through functional silos, and fundamentally changing the functional organizational models. The webcast will also explore benchmarked, end-to-end leading practice processes and policies, pervasive automation and workflow, and intra- and inter-process innovation.

Former president Mumaw was "father" of Pleasant View
In the late 1960s, not long after John R. Mumaw had completed nearly two decades as EMU's fourth president (1948-1965), he began to devote more attention to his concern for people with intellectual disabilities. This had been close to his heart since his great-nephew, Chester, was born with Down syndrome. Then moderator of the Virginia Mennonite Conference, Mumaw convened a committee t ...More

Madagascar's population is predominantly of mixed Asian and African origin. Research suggests that the island was uninhabited until Indonesian seafarers arrived in roughly the first century A.D., probably by way of southern India and East Africa, where they acquired African wives and slaves. Subsequent migrations from both the Pacific and Africa further consolidated this original mixture, and 18 separate tribal groups emerged. Asian features are most predominant in the central highlands people, the Merina (3 million) and the Betsileo (2 million); the coastal people are of more clearly African origin. The largest coastal groups are the Betsimisaraka (1.5 million) and the Tsimihety and Sakalava (700,000 each).
The Malagasy language is of Malayo-Polynesian origin and is generally spoken throughout the island, with significant regional variations. French is spoken among the educated population of this former French colony. English is becoming more widely spoken, and in 2003 the government began a pilot project of introducing the teaching of English into the primary grades of 44 schools, with hopes of taking the project nationwide. In 2010, however, the de facto government introduced measures that would limit the use and teaching of English.
Most people practice traditional religions, which tend to emphasize links between the living and the dead. They believe that the dead join their ancestors in the ranks of divinity and that ancestors are intensely concerned with the fate of their living descendants. The Merina and Betsileo reburial practice of famadihana, or "turning over the dead" celebrates this spiritual communion. In this ritual, relatives' remains are removed from the family tomb, rewrapped in new silk shrouds, and returned to the tomb following festive ceremonies in their honor.
About 41% of the Malagasy are Christian, divided almost evenly between Roman Catholic and Protestant. Many incorporate the cult of the dead with their religious beliefs and bless their dead at church before proceeding with the traditional burial rites. They also may invite a pastor to attend a famadihana. While many Christians continue these practices, others consider them to be superstitions that should be abandoned. Many of the Christian churches are influential in politics. In the coastal regions of the provinces of Mahajanga and Antsiranana (Diego Suarez), Muslims constitute a significant minority. Muslims are divided between those of Malagasy ethnicity, Indo-Pakistanis, and Comorans.
The written history of Madagascar began in the seventh century A.D., when Arabs established trading posts along the northwest coast. European contact began in the 1500s, when Portuguese sea captain Diego Dias sighted the island after his ship became separated from a fleet bound for India. In the late 17th century, the French established trading posts along the east coast. From about 1774 to 1824, it was a favorite haunt for pirates, including Americans, one of whom brought Malagasy rice to South Carolina.
Beginning in the 1790s, Merina rulers succeeded in establishing hegemony over the majority of the island, including the coast. In 1817, the Merina ruler and the British governor of Mauritius concluded a treaty abolishing the slave trade, which had been important in Madagascar's economy. In return, the island received British military and financial assistance. British influence remained strong for several decades, during which the Merina court was converted to Presbyterianism, Congregationalism, and Anglicanism.
The British accepted the imposition of a French protectorate over Madagascar in 1885 in return for eventual control over Zanzibar (now part of Tanzania) and as part of an overall definition of spheres of influence in the area. Absolute French control over Madagascar was established by military force in 1895-96, and the Merina monarchy was abolished.
Malagasy troops fought in France, Morocco, and Syria during World War I. After France fell to the Germans in World War II, the Vichy government administered Madagascar. British troops occupied the strategic island in 1942 to preclude its seizure by the Japanese. The Free French received the island from the United Kingdom in 1943.
In 1947, with French prestige at a low ebb, a nationalist uprising was suppressed after several months of bitter fighting. The French subsequently established reformed institutions in 1956 under the Loi Cadre (Overseas Reform Act), and Madagascar moved peacefully toward independence. The Malagasy Republic was proclaimed on October 14, 1958, as an autonomous state within the French Community. A period of provisional government ended with the adoption of a constitution in 1959 and full independence on June 26, 1960.
The principal institutions of the Republic of Madagascar are a presidency, a parliament, a prime ministry and cabinet, and an independent judiciary. The president is elected by direct universal suffrage for a 5-year term, renewable twice. The last presidential election was held on December 3, 2006. There is currently no legitimate sitting president in Madagascar.
In Madagascar, the parliament has two chambers; the National Assembly and the Senate. The last National Assembly election was held on September 23, 2007, and marked a significant reform to the parliament. The National Assembly previously had 160 members, elected for a 4-year term in single-member and two-member constituencies. However, in July 2007, just before the National Assembly elections, a council of ministers agreed to reduce the number of parliamentarians from 160 to 127. Consequently, few of the 116 districts elected more than one member. Antananarivo's six districts, however, each elected two deputies. The Senate has 33 members, with 22 members elected for a 6-year term, 1 for each province by provincial electors, and 11 members appointed by the president. Following the 2009 coup d'etat, the Malagasy National Assembly and Senate were dissolved by the de facto authorities. Thus, there is currently no legitimate legislative body in Madagascar.
The prime minister and members of parliament initiate legislation, and the government executes it. The president can dissolve the National Assembly. For its part, the National Assembly can pass a motion of censure and require the prime minister and council of ministers to step down. The Constitutional Court approves the constitutionality of new laws.
In an effort to decentralize administration, the country's six provinces were dissolved in the constitutional referendum of 2007, in favor of 22 regions designated previously in 2004. Decentralization is an ongoing process, and has been a key element of Madagascar's development plans.

Madagascar's first President, Philibert Tsiranana, was elected when his Social Democratic Party gained power at independence in 1960 and was reelected without opposition in March 1972. However, he resigned only 2 months later in response to massive antigovernment demonstrations. The unrest continued, and Tsiranana's successor, Gen. Gabriel Ramanantsoa, resigned on February 5, 1975, handing over executive power to Lt. Col. Richard Ratsimandrava, who was assassinated 6 days later. A provisional military directorate then ruled until a new government was formed in June 1975, under Didier Ratsiraka.
During the 16 subsequent years of President Ratsiraka's rule, Madagascar's government was committed to revolutionary socialism based on the 1975 constitution that established a highly centralized state. Elections in 1982 and 1989 returned Ratsiraka for a second and third 7-year presidential term. For much of this period, only limited and restrained political opposition was tolerated, with no direct criticism of the president permitted in the press.
In the late 1980s, the Ratsiraka regime came under increasing pressure to make fundamental changes. With a deteriorating economy, mass demonstrations, and crippling general strikes, the limited economic and political reforms Ratsiraka enacted were insufficient to placate a growing opposition movement known as Hery Velona or "Active Forces." A number of already existing political parties and their leaders, among them Albert Zafy and Rakotoniaina Manandafy, anchored this movement. In a bid to placate this opposition, Ratsiraka replaced his prime minister in August 1991 but suffered an irreparable setback soon thereafter when his troops fired on peaceful demonstrators marching on his suburban palace, killing more than 30. In an increasingly weakened position, Ratsiraka acceded to negotiations on the formation of a transitional government.
The resulting "Panorama Convention" of October 31, 1991, stripped Ratsiraka of nearly all of his powers, created interim institutions, and set an 18-month timetable for completing a transition to a new form of constitutional government. The High Constitutional Court was retained as the ultimate judicial arbiter of the process. In March 1992, a widely representative National Forum organized by the Malagasy Christian Council of Churches (FFKM) drafted a new constitution, which was put to a nationwide referendum in August 1992 and approved by a wide margin, despite efforts by pro-Ratsiraka "federalists" to disrupt balloting in several coastal areas.
Presidential elections were held on November 25, 1992, after the High Constitutional Court had ruled, over "Active Forces" objections, that Ratsiraka could become a candidate. Runoff elections were held in February 1993, and the leader of the Hery Velona movement, Albert Zafy, defeated Ratsiraka. Zafy was sworn in as President on March 27, 1993. After President Zafy's impeachment by the National Assembly in 1996 and the short quasi-presidency of Norbert Ratsirahonana, the 1997 elections once again pitted Zafy and Ratsiraka, with Ratsiraka this time emerging victorious. A National Assembly, dominated by members of President Ratsiraka'a political party AREMA, subsequently passed the 1998 constitution, which considerably strengthened the presidency.
In December 2001, a presidential election was held in which both major candidates claimed victory. The Ministry of the Interior declared incumbent Ratsiraka of the AREMA party victorious. Marc Ravalomanana contested the results and claimed victory. A political crisis followed in which Ratsiraka supporters cut major transport routes from the primary port city to the capital city, a stronghold of Ravalomanana support. Sporadic violence and considerable economic disruption continued until July 2002 when Ratsiraka and several of his prominent supporters fled to exile in France. In addition to political differences, ethnic differences played a role in the crisis and continue to play a role in politics. Ratsiraka is from the coastal Betsimisaraka tribe and Ravalomanana comes from the highland Merina tribe.
After the end of the 2002 political crisis, President Ravalomanana began many reform projects, forcefully advocating "rapid and durable development" and launching a battle against corruption. December 2002 legislative elections gave his newly formed TIM (Tiako-i-Madagasikara--I Love Madagascar) Party a commanding majority in the National Assembly. November 2003 municipal elections were conducted freely, returning a majority of supporters of the president, but also significant numbers of independent and regional opposition figures.
On March 17, 2009, after a period of demonstrations in the capital, President Ravalomanana signed power over to the military, which in turn conferred the presidency on opposition leader Andry Rajoelina, the elected mayor of Antananarivo and leader of the demonstrations. Rajoelina declared himself "President of the High Transitional Authority" and pledged to hold presidential elections by October 2010 (a pledge that he did not fulfill), following a constitutional referendum and revision of the electoral code. The United States has condemned the unconstitutional and undemocratic change of power in Madagascar and considers the series of events of early 2009 that led to the installation of the de facto leadership to be a military coup d'etat.
Structural reforms began in the late 1980s, initially under pressure from international financial institutions. An initial privatization program (1988-1993) and the development of an export processing zone (EPZ) regime in the early 1990s were key milestones in this effort. A period of significant stagnation from 1991-96 was followed by 5 years of solid economic growth and accelerating foreign investment, driven by a second wave of privatizations and EPZ development. Although structural reforms advanced, governance remained weak and perceived corruption in Madagascar was extremely high. During the period of solid growth from 1997 through 2001, poverty levels remained stubbornly high, especially in rural areas. A 6-month political crisis triggered by a dispute over the outcome of the presidential elections held in December 2001 virtually halted economic activity in much of the country in the first half of 2002.
Following the 2002 political crisis, in coordination with international financial institutions and the donor community, the government attempted to set a new policy course and build business confidence. Madagascar developed a recovery plan in collaboration with the private sector and donors and presented it at a 2002 "Friends of Madagascar" conference in Paris organized by the World Bank. Donor countries demonstrated their confidence in the new government by pledging $1 billion in assistance over 5 years. The Malagasy Government identified road infrastructure as its principal priority and underlined its commitment to public-private partnership by establishing a joint public-private sector steering committee.
In 2000, Madagascar prepared a Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP) under the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) Initiative. The boards of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank agreed in December 2000 that the country had reached the decision point for debt relief under the HIPC Initiative and defined a set of conditions for Madagascar to reach the completion point. In October 2004, the boards of the IMF and the World Bank determined that Madagascar had reached the completion point under the enhanced HIPC Initiative.
The Madagascar-U.S. Business Council was formed in Madagascar in 2002. The U.S.-Madagascar Business Council was formed in the United States in May 2003, and the two organizations continue to explore ways to work for the benefit of both groups. An American Chamber of Commerce was launched at the end of 2008 and remains active even after the 2009 coup d'etat.
Madagascar's ongoing political crisis continues to negatively impact key economic indicators and the business sector. The actions of the HAT regime forced the United States under existing law to withdraw African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) eligibility from Madagascar at the end of 2009, a situation which resulted in the loss of thousands of jobs. Parts of the country have returned to a barter economy, reports indicate many laid-off workers have reverted to the informal sector, and standards of living have declined since the coup.
Madagascar, which has historically been perceived as on the margin of mainstream African affairs, eagerly rejoined the African Union (AU) in July 2003 after a 14-month hiatus triggered by the 2002 political crisis, and joined the Southern African Development Community (SADC) in 2006. From 1978 until 1991, then-President Ratsiraka emphasized independence and nonalignment and followed an "all points" policy stressing ties with socialist and radical regimes, including North Korea, Cuba, Libya, and Iran. Taking office in 1993, President Albert Zafy expressed his desire for diplomatic relations with all countries. Early in his tenure, he established formal ties with South Korea and sent emissaries to Morocco.
Starting in 1997, globalization encouraged the government and President Ratsiraka to adhere to market-oriented policies and to engage world markets. External relations reflected this trend, although Madagascar's physical isolation and strong traditional insular orientation have limited its activity in regional economic organizations and relations with its East African neighbors. During his term, President Ravalomanana welcomed relations with all countries interested in helping Madagascar to develop. He consciously sought to strengthen relations with Anglophone countries as a means of balancing a historically strong French influence.
Following the 2009 coup d'etat, Madagascar was suspended from participating in AU and SADC activities until constitutional order is restored. Most donors in Madagascar, including the United States and the European Union, have suspended assistance programs to the Government of Madagascar. The United States currently undertakes only humanitarian assistance programs that have a direct impact on civilian populations in need. The AU formed an International Contact Group to coordinate international community action to ensure a return to constitutional rule as quickly as possible, and SADC appointed former Mozambican President Joaquim Chissano as a mediator in the effort to find a consensual, negotiated solution to the ongoing political crisis. Additionally, the AU and others have enacted certain targeted sanctions or travel restrictions on members of the HAT regime who are impeding a return to free, fair, and durable democracy in Madagascar.
Relations with the United States date to the mid-1800s. The two countries concluded a commercial convention in 1867 and a treaty of peace, friendship, and commerce in 1881. Traditionally warm relations suffered considerably during the 1970s, when Madagascar expelled the U.S. ambassador, closed a NASA tracking station, and nationalized two U.S. oil companies. In 1980, relations at the ambassadorial level were restored.
Throughout the troubled period, commercial and cultural relations remained active. In 1990, Madagascar was designated as a priority aid recipient, and assistance increased from $15 million in 1989 to $40 million in 1993. More recently, Madagascar was one of the first countries to qualify for the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) "Wearing Apparel" provisions, allowing the growth of a significant textile and garments export sector in Madagascar. Unfortunately, the coup d'etat that brought Rajoelina and the HAT regime to power, followed by Rajoelina's rejection of mediation efforts in December 2009, rendered Madagascar ineligible for AGOA under the economic and political governance criteria necessary for eligibility.
U.S. assistance in Madagascar has contributed to a population census and family planning programs; conservation of Madagascar's remarkable biodiversity; private sector development; agriculture; democracy and governance initiatives; and media training. Madagascar became the very first country with a Millennium Challenge Account compact when it signed an agreement worth $110 million in April 2006, although the compact was terminated due to the 2009 coup d'etat and resulting ongoing political crisis.
The United States considers the series of events in Madagascar in early 2009 to be a military coup d'etat and, as a result, has suspended all assistance programs that directly benefit the government as well as all non-humanitarian assistance to Madagascar. The United States' intent is to support international efforts led by SADC and the AU to ensure that a credible electoral process takes place as soon as possible, organized by an independent entity.

Woman accused of threatening to blow up South Davidson Middle
Published: Monday, December 10, 2012 at 11:54 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, December 10, 2012 at 1:57 p.m.
A woman is accused of threatening to blow up South Davidson Middle School on Thursday, according to an arrest warrant.
Valerie Lewis, 32, of 1077 Jim Elliott Road, Denton, was charged with communicating threats and felony false report mass violence on educational property. She received a $10,000 unsecured bond and a court date of July 23.
Lewis, according to a warrant, made a report to the Davidson County Schools' superintendent's office that she was going to blow up the middle school with everyone in it. In regard to a school employee, the court document stated, she threatened she was going to beat him up if she "sees him on the street."
Davidson County Sheriff David Grice said threatening phone calls will not be tolerated on school campuses.
"We don't allow that," the sheriff said.
Donna Stafford, director of public relations for Davidson County Schools, said the threat did not cause a distraction for students. She said the school resource officer was called immediately and talked to Lewis.
"(Lewis) never went into the school," Stafford said.
Lewis, Stafford said, was in the parking lot when she made the phone call to the county schools office.
"She was obviously not happy about something at the school," the director of public relations said.
