did we have much in the way of poetry/art/culture before agriculture? has there ever been an epic poem which does not in some way include some very specific reference to farming? my point can be distilled to this: agriculture gives us an inneffable connection to the seasonal cycle, which is crucial to the continuingly healthy production of art. if we stop doing agriculture entirely and let robots do it, we will not have a very healthy sphere of poetry and art.
it is arbitrary, i will give you that. but it is certainly not as arbitrary as office spaces, and my point has little to do with the anatomy of human beings
And where did you get the idea that robots would create art work? The whole idea is that robots would do things no other human would want to do, whereas I can think a good chunk of the human population would love to have free time to produce art work as they please (including myself). Arguably, the amount of art work would increase with people having more free time and access to better technology, as the trend has been over the last century.
To argue that art requires an agrarian lifestyle to be produced is a foolish statement that is contradicted by any knowledge of art over the last few centuries. I really hope you're just high as balls or messing with me.
Also Hicky what the fuck happened to you on page 3 of this thread?
And you ticked my OCD off as well, why did you distinguish poetry as some sort of separate entity to art in your earlier posts? Poetry IS art.
Is it possible that at some point computers might be able to perform more complex tasks through learning, a la Cleverbot (with non-shitty programming)?
maybe. one of the problems with answering questions like 'is it possible for a computer to think intelligently?' is that we have such a vague idea of what intelligence is. is an intelligent machine one that has the same capabilities as that of a human? there exist computers which can perform a variety of tasks much faster and much more efficiently than humans can (arithmetic) but which are atrocious at things that human children excel at (pattern recognition in images). there are well researched, efficient algorithms designed to get computers to 'learn' specific tasks (such as classifying documents under various genres based on the text in them, which was an assignment i did yesterday) but there is no real answer to whether computers can accomplish the 'holistic learning' that humans are capable of. then again we're trying to accomplish in 40 years what took millions of years to happen to us so id way we've made great progress.
Though I do enjoy the prospect of self-driving cars. Reduced accident rate and taking a nap on the way to school just seems so nice.
The main point of your post is true though, machines have to be programmed/maintained by humans. I don't know how far in the future we're projecting here, but eventually, at least for the average person, a lot of manual labor/ repetitive tasks will be replaced by the performance of machines and the focus would probably shift toward research, design, creative expression - all the tasks that are important to the society as a whole that cannot be replaced by said machines.

Or, y'know, you could just build a robot with a built-in hydraulic lift
of course there has been art in the last couple of centuries, but it's a different kind of art to the kind of art we had when we all tilled our crops which is less specifically connected to a very specific kind of engagement with the natural world.
i am not differentiating between art and poetry, i was just emphasising the importance of poetry to my argument.
of course art doesn't require an agrarian lifestyle to be produced. but my point is that a certain societal connection with agriculture creates a different and more enhanced appreciation of aesthetics and therefore a much different (and in my opinion 'better') notion of aesthetics. and of course i'm not saying that agriculture was a 'precursor' to art, but it certainly spawned poetic genres like pastorals (and, to a lesser extent, epics), a tradition from which poetry today is developed from. we would have (and do have) a different kind of art today because we have to some extent lost the agrarianism of the past, and i see a certain state of complexity as an ideal for a very specific sense of aesthetic in society. is this really controversial?To argue that art requires an agrarian lifestyle to be produced is a foolish statement that is contradicted by any knowledge of art over the last few centuries. I really hope you're just high as balls or messing with me.

Price: $14.95
Dan Buettner has crossed the globe, from Costa Rica to Italy to Japan and beyond, talking to people who live longest. In the societies he visits, it's no coincidence that the way people interact with each other, shed stress, nourish their bodies, and view their world yields more good years of life.
You'll meet a 94-year-old farmer and self-confessed "ladies man" in Costa Rica, an 102-year-old grandmother in Okinawa, a 102-year-old Sardinian who hikes at least six miles a day, and others. By observing their lifestyles, Buettner's teams have identified critical everyday choices that correspond with the cutting edge of longevity researchand distilled them into a few simple but powerful habits that anyone can embrace.
Dan Buettner is a writer and the founder of Quest Network, Inc. His 2005 cover story for National Geographic magazine, "Secrets of Living Longer," was a finalist for the National Magazine Award.
He has appeared on CNN, David Letterman, Good Morning America, Primetime Live, and the Today Show to discuss his Blue Zone research and has delivered more than 500 keynote speeches over the last 10 years.
"The Blue Zones is one of the most important and engaging stories you will ever read! With Dan Buettner as your intrepid narrator, you will visit locations where people are living the longest, healthiest lives anywhere on the planet. More importantly, you will learn how to immediately incorporate those lessons from faraway places into your very own life. When I hosted the documentary Chasing Life, Dan Buettner was the man we looked to for advice. Now, you have all of it at your fingertips. Inside: the secret to a long life."Sanjay Gupta, M.D.
"Eat less. Make family a priority. Banish stress. I figured it should be no problem to follow most of the common-sense tips that Dan Buettner outlines in The Blue Zones"New York Times
"A must-read if you want to stay young! Buettner teaches us the secrets of the world's longest-lived cultures and how they can turn back your biological clock."Mehmet C. Oz, M.D.
"This book gives you practical tips for living long and wellthe essential components of lifestyles in those areas of the world where healthy aging is the rule. I recommend it."Andrew Weil, M.D.
"Dan Buettner takes us on a journey to explore the secrets of longevity and in so doing introduces us to a world of joy in aging...at 91, this is very good news!"Walter Cronkite.

Building bridges leads to safer roads for drivers
Published: Wednesday, July 10, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, July 9, 2013 at 4:38 p.m.
Construction projects often cause motorists to grumble, especially those that involve detours from their normal routes. But once the dust settles, drivers enjoy safer roads. A good example is the ongoing work on Interstate 85 from Davidson County into Rowan County. The new bridges across the Yadkin River already carry four lanes of traffic in both directions, and in the near future the interstate will be eight lanes from the Interstate 85 Business Loop junction past Salisbury.
The bridges were the main focus of the interstate work, as the previous structures consistently ranked in the top 10 of AAA Carolinas' worst bridges in the state. Thankfully, the latest ranking from the group didn't include any Davidson County bridges, although N.C. Department of Transportation records show 51 of the county's 225 bridges are considered structurally deficient, and another 32 are called functionally obsolete. NCDOT officials are always quick to say even a bridge classified as structurally deficient remains safe, but the sooner those bridges are replaced, the more peace of mind for motorists.
In addition to the I-85 lane widening, other work continues in the county. A bridge over Rich Fork Creek on Interstate 85 Business Loop near Davidson County Community College is being rebuilt, forcing one-lane traffic going north and south on the southbound bridge. That detour is quick and straight-forward, unlike the route necessary due to the construction of a bridge to carry U.S. Highway 64 over the business loop near Lexington Barbecue. That detour requires several turns, especially heading into the city.
A story in Saturday's edition reported other bridge replacements that are on the horizon. Some will produce a combination of short-term angst but long-term satisfaction. One of these carries East Center Street over Talbert Boulevard. That detour won't be a direct one, but anyone looking up at the bridge, built in 1953, as they travel on Talbert Boulevard can understand the need for a replacement. Another project will replace the extremely narrow bridge over Abbotts Creek on Old U.S. Highway 64 at Finch Park. Many motorists were surprised it wasn't replaced before the structure that carried East Center Street Extension over Abbotts Creek a short distance away.
Motorists need to exercise caution as they utilize detour routes. Those who live or work near the affected areas must especially beware of an increased amount of traffic due to detours. The bridges may not always produce a quicker route to one's destination, but they are an important step in maintaining the county's infrastructure to meet today's motoring needs.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 7 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Debbie719 The product is exactly what it pictures Beautiful This product is everything it said it would be , nice quality, color and overall agreat product, would definitely recommend this to anyone . March 29, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by CoffeeFanatic Delivery problems, but excellent product & tremendous customer service I was in search for stackable coffee cups that were short enough to use with my Nespresso Essenza, but large enough to hold a latte. All other sites sold white cups which were too boring for me. I really wanted color. These cups were absolutely perfect for me - and they happened to be offered in a color range that complimented my decor perfectly. I LOVE THEM! PROS: Great stacking rack to save space. Perfect height to fit my compact espresso machine. Great color. Well made. Looks beautiful. Microwave and dishwasher safe. GREAT price!! Arrived quickly. Tremendously good customer service. CONS: The handle may be small for some. I've got small hands, so this isn't an issue for me. Original order and replacement set arrived with some broken pieces, but World Market really took care of me. The 2nd set was sent very quickly. Ultimately, I have a complete set plus a spare mug, thanks to World Market's incredible customer service. I'm still very happy. February 2, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by MomoFour A MUST HAVE in every kitchen! I have had these bowls/mugs for a few years now. They have been used with a large family virtually every day! They are the first choice for a bowl of chili or cereal. We store them on the countertop and they look good. They are incredibly versatile, easy to warm up in the microwave, easy to wash, colors are vivid, and very durable. Despite having them for several years (at least 4), they have no chips whatsoever! I am getting ready to send a set to my oldest child that is setting up a new apartment. I know these will be used often by him and his roommates. January 25, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lynn64 Jumbo cool stacking mugs We love these mugs and the stand. They take up so little room on the kitchen counter as opposed to those old mug hangers with the hooks on the sides. These are neat and go with most all decorating styles. You may say that we are lucky to have three homes and have them in all. This Christmas, I shared the joy and gave them as gifts. January 11, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by JHearts LOVE! I absolutely love these. They are perfect for a jumbo cup of coffee in the morning. They also look really sleek and fancy next to my Keurig. Happy, happy, happy! January 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by uptowngal Great Quality, Great Value I purchased the stacking mugs to use for chilis and stews at upcoming winter get-togethers. The mugs are, absolutely, perfect - in size and quality. The color graduation from a muted lime green to a festive caribbean blue is subtle and quite attractive. The quality is superb. These are not lightweight mugs. They are substantial and just the right size and weight for the purpose. And, 'stacking' is a great space-saver. I cannot say enough good things about the mugs. You will not be disappointed. I researched quite a few places and found these mugs to be the best buy and value. Shipping from World Market was fast and hassle-free. December 3, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by MrsStephanieDavis Giant coffee or perfect bowl These are awesome! They're durable, don't overheat in the microwave, and are space efficient. The colors are gorgeous and the size is perfect. They are quite large, which make them perfect for a bowl of cereal or a massive mug of coffee. November 9, 2013

SEEP/W isWindows® 8 Compatible
SEEP/W is a finite element CAD software product for analyzing groundwater
seepage and excess pore-water pressure dissipation problems within porous
materials such as soil and rock. Its comprehensive formulation allows you
to consider analyses ranging from simple, saturated steady-state problems
to sophisticated, saturated/unsaturated time-dependent problems.
SEEP/W can be applied to the analysis and design of geotechnical, civil,
hydrogeological, and mining engineering projects.
SEEP/W can model both saturated and unsaturated flow, a feature that
greatly broadens the range of problems that can be analyzed. In addition
to traditional steady-state saturated flow analysis, the
saturated/unsaturated formulation of SEEP/W makes it possible to analyze
seepage as a function of time and to consider such processes as the
infiltration of precipitation. The transient feature allows you to
analyze such problems as the migration of a wetting front and the
dissipation of excess pore-water pressure.
Beginning an analysis is as simple as defining the geometry by drawing
regions and lines that identify soil layers, or by importing a DXF™ file.
Then graphically apply boundary conditions and specify material properties.
Material properties can be estimated from easily
measured parameters like grain-size, saturated conductivity, saturated
water content, and the air-entry value.
Once you have solved your seepage analysis, SEEP/W offers many tools
for viewing results. Generate contours or x-y plots of any computed
parameter, such as head, pressure, gradient, velocity, and conductivity.
Velocity vectors show flow direction and rate. Transient conditions can
be shown as a changing water table over time. Interactively
query computed values by clicking on any node, Gauss region, or flux
Then prepare the results for your report by adding labels, axes,
and pictures, or export the results into other applications such as
Microsoft® Excel® for further analysis.
SEEP/W can model almost any groundwater problem, including:

Cute! He'll be on The Gates, a new supernatural crime show starting in June! I'm excited for that show...
Wow...This guy is crazy sexy!! I especially love the pic of him smoking. I didn't know you were allowed to smoke in pictures anymore. I figured that had been outlawed too!!
sry...bitter smoker here.
Check me out here: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/...18&ref=profile
Today is my 24th Birthday....so can I have Colton as my present?
He was being considered for the role of Edward in the Twilight series before Pattinson until those pictures surfaced
He is awfully young or so its said
Looks a little maybe a bit underfed
Grow the hair back upon his chest
That would really make it look the best
Then, gorsh, oh golly wally ollie oh gee
It'd be hot damn hot..at least to me.
Maybe not Epic but I truly do see
That would make it for me.
this guy is HOT...so is he gay?
Fuckin beautiful.
I'd love to tongue fuck his hole.
He does have a case of gayface....
His new show "The Gates" premieres this Sunday.
For those of you who give a damn, he'll be on ABC tonight at 9:00 CT
I see a little bit of resemblance to Sam Witwer in his face... at least in the first set of pic.
I can't believe more hasn't been said about his appearance in "The Gates" last night. First, there is a shirtless part in the lockerroom. Then, super gay, he changes from a wolf back to a human when his buddy from the football team tackles him; the buddy straddles him, and Colton Haynes is naked underneath him on his back! Surely someone has some screencaps.
that guy is extremely hot! and probably gay!!! cool
Well, he can't act and his new show sucks. It's boring, the writing is bad and everything is overtly bland. Too bad.
When Does The Show Come On? Is He Gay? I Didnt Know Chace Crawford Was Gay Either Until I Read This Thread. And Hot Damn That Boy Is Fine
He has one hot looking body.
Wise women & men with open minds have always learnt from
and used the wisdom of those who've gone before us.
The foolish simply follow other fools. - Diana Greentree
wow, hot. i'm super hard!
omg this guy is SO hot!
Here are some photos from The Gates.
I just watched the episode on showtime on demand and you DON'T get to see him naked at all. He does take off his shirt but nothing else. He is VERY cute though!
I've never even heard of this show....I'll have to check it out cause Showtime makes great shows
ok...I have never heard of this show....just checked on Showtime.com and they have nothing listed about it...and I checked Showtime on Demand and it's not on there...where are you seeing this show?
ok so I'm watching all the episodes that are on On Demand right now...does anyone know who plays the HOT muscle daddy looking cop? IMDB only lists his partner(the bald one)
Colton will be fully naked in tomorrow's episode! Please someone cap it!
colton is gorgeous
he is gorgeousssssss
Colton looked hot in today's episode. Really hot sex scene when he was fucking the girl and there was plenty of ass shots.
can someone post last night episode? or atleast the SCENE please!
Yeah... someone post that scene...
Hot !
How can i see the whole series because I don't have showtime and I can't find it anywhere to download it?
That video was hot as shit, I might make screen caps later.
is there a way to download these episodes???
I want to eat that ass for days
read this post please...
i have a crush on him he makes me forget Zac Efron sometimes well at leat there are actual gay proves about Colton, i got tired of wondering if Zac is gay or not and have to see him kissing ''her'' all the time...
So is Colton Haynes hot? Post your comments and thoughts below.
I think he is pretty hot. Here are some photos from the beach.
The first 3 pics are from 'The Gates'. The last 2 I like to think of as before and after. (If you have to ask before and after what, turn in your gay and/or bi membership card now.)
Last edited by quasar; July 6th, 2012 at 02:21 PM.
you can watch him on ''The Gates'' and ''Looks'' TV Series
this video is pretty hot
in that fourth beach pic, he seems to have a semi hardon.. and you can see the outline of it, which doesn't look small.... i drooled all over the keyboard.
that guy is gorgeous
He's pretty hot. And quite talented.
I found this on his IMDB page:I have yet to see skills like that ascribed to any other actor, or even an athlete!Can move both of his eyebrows up and down, wiggle his ears, and make really ugly faces.
It's never too early in the year,
to spread some goodwill cheer!

As bitter cold bites New York plunging temperatures to their lowest in decades, Catholic Charities joins with the New York City Office of Emergency Management to help keep you and our fellow neighbors warm.
Warning: Prolonged exposure to extreme cold weather can be deadly. The National Weather service forecasts wind chills of near -10 degrees and below-freezing temperatures until Thursday.
Vulnerable populations, such as seniors and infants, are most at risk during extreme weather. So it's important to check on friends, family and neighbors if you think they need help getting to a warm place.
The NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene encourages everyone to stay indoors as much as possible. If your home lacks heat, get to a warm, safe place immediately.
To discourage unnecessary trips outdoors, the NYC Department of Aging asks Catholic Charities and fellow operators of senior centers encourage participants to stay home. None-the-less, some seniors need meals and a warm place to stay.
- Catholic Charities opened its senior centers in certain locations including Staten Island.
- We are also providing extra meals to bring home along with cold weather safety tips to avoid unnecessary trips outdoors.
- Case managers are calling to check on homebound seniors and high-risk clients during the cold weather.
We urge you to join us in checking on neighbors, friends and relatives.
- If you are concerned about someone on the street who may be homeless and in need of assistance call 311 and ask for the Mobile Outreach Response Team. The Department of Homeless Services will send an outreach team to the location to assess the individual's condition and take appropriate action.
- If your building is cold, check on your neighbors. If you know someone who is vulnerable and lacking heat, help them get to warm places and notify the building manager and/or call 311 to get heat restored. If you see someone with signs of hypothermia such as confusion, shivering, slurred speech, drowsiness call 911 for help and help the person get warm while waiting for help.
- Landlords and building managers should check their building systems to ensure heat, and check on vulnerable people
Health problems resulting from prolonged exposure to cold include hypothermia, frostbite and exacerbation of chronic heart and lung conditions. Recognize the signs and symptoms of hypothermia and frostbite:
- Hypothermia is a life-threatening condition where the body temperature is abnormally low. Symptoms may include shivering, slurred speech, sluggishness, drowsiness, unusual behavior, confusion, dizziness, and shallow breathing. Some people, such as infants, seniors, and those with chronic diseases and substance abuse problems can get sick quicker. Check on friends, relatives, and neighbors who may need assistance to ensure they are adequately protected from the cold.
- Frostbite is a serious injury to a body part frozen from exposure to the cold. It most often affects extremities like fingers and toes or exposed areas such as ears or parts of the face. Redness and pain may be the first warning of frostbite. Other symptoms include numbness or skin that appears pale, firm, or waxy.
Provide first aid:
- If you suspect a person is suffering from frostbite or hypothermia, call 911 to get medical help.
- While waiting for assistance to arrive, help the person get warm by getting them to a warm place if possible, removing any damp clothing and covering them with warm blankets.

text: I started working on this again I got my 1 1/4" OD non concentric blank in the lathe and after a lot of shaking of the entire lathe I finally got it round but it was a job. I made a pilot and then used a dog to drive the barrel and just used the live center on the other end. Im pretty sure im with in .0005 on the run out but it really wont matter to much if its a little more. took about 3 hours to get it done. Im concerned about the amount of stress imparted from all the cutting and all that stuff wonder if the barrel is even straight any more. Im going to try to cut the chamber with a boring bar after I use a piolted reamer to cut the bullet leade/ free bore. whats the worst that can happen? This will be a while untill I can aford the reamer for the bullet leade.

A glimpse of the New York art world of the '60's and portraits of Noguchi and Warhol.
Bill Ray was born in a tiny Nebraska town in 1936, a few months before the great American picture magazine, Life, was launched. His interest in photography was encouraged by his mother and oldest brother, who were both artists. When it came time to choose between small town security and striking out for the big time, he took the road out of town, landing a job on the Lincoln Journal-Star as a staff photographer,but always with his goal in mind of becoming a Life photographer, going to far away places, meeting important and beautiful people. His campaign took him to Chicago and Minneapolis, where he met the love of his life on a park bench, and New York, four years later, working for the world's greatest picture magazine. Lucky for him, the girl on the park bench came along, and they lived happily ever after, in Beverly Hills, Paris, and New York with their three beautiful daughters and their five perfect grandchildren. This book includes some of the pictures taken along the way.

If you've fibbed to your doctor about your health habits or how faithfully you've followed his or her guidance, you're far from alone. In a recent national survey by Synovate, 52 percent of women admitted they had lied to their health care providers. But just because most people do it, that doesn't make it OK.
(MORE: The Truth Is, Lying Makes You Sick)
It seems obvious, but lying to the doctor can be hazardous to your health, says Elif Oker, medical director at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas. "Doctors make decisions about diagnosis and treatment based on what patients tell them," she says. Incomplete information can lead to delayed treatment, unnecessary suffering and avoidable complications.
Why We Lie
Shame and embarrassment top the list of reasons why patients stretch the truth in the examination room, Oker says. But while "the truth may feel embarrassing to discuss," she says, "patients should find comfort in knowing that doctors are professionals. There is virtually nothing you can say that a good doctor hasn't already heard."
A doctor's job is not to judge you but to heal you, adds social worker and Alzheimer's Association consultant Jennifer FitzPatrick, the author of Your 24/7 Older Parent. "If you are uncomfortable talking openly," she says, "or if you feel like your doctor is judging you, it might be best to find another doctor you are more comfortable with."

Online payment FAQs
Please Note: For security reasons we are unable to accept payments of more than £5,000 in a single transaction and your card company/issuer may impose a lower limit for internet use of their card.
My card has been rejected - why?
Please check you've entered the correct card type. The secure payment screen only accepts the card numbers with no spaces entered (e.g. "4242424242424242" rather than "4242 4242 4242 4242") - if you originally mis-keyed some details please wait for 90 seconds before retrying. The delay is a security measure to prevent repeated attempts to use an invalid card.
Another common cause of transaction failure is entering an incorrect issue number, please check your details before retrying your transaction.
If the transaction still fails or this is not the problem and you are sure the card details are correct and the card is valid, please contact us, using our |on line form
Please tell us as much as possible to help us investigate the problem e.g.-
- Time/date you attempted to make payment,
- Reference number(s) of the account(s) you were intending to pay,
- Your card type (e.g. First Direct Maestro debit card),
- Any error message on screen,
- As much as you can about what happened and
- The version and type of web browser you were using e.g. Internet Explorer, Netscape Firefox, Opera etc (some versions may not be compatible with our system)
I don't know or haven't got a reference number
If you are paying for an on-line service (e.g. Green Waste collection or a "Shout" course) either complete the on-line form to obtain the reference before paying or use the reference you were given if you enrolled for the service over the phone.
If you are paying Council Tax, Business Rates or a Parking Penalty Notice the number will be on the documentation you have received.
I need to add more than one reference
Unfortunately due to the additional complexity this feature isn't available for Card Payments please return to the payment page and re-enter the details for each reference.
The amount I've keyed in isn't accepted.
Some services have minimum payment amounts e.g. £1 for Council Tax. Please click on the question mark next to the field for more detailed information. Please do not key in a "£" sign as only numbers and a decimal point are accepted.
What is CV2 and why do I need to enter it?
CV2 stands for Customer Verification 2, its the last three digits on the number printed on the signature strip on the reverse of the card. Entering it helps confirm that the person making the payment has possession of the card.
What is 3D Secure (Mastercard SecureCode/Verified by Visa)?
These are additional security measures brought in by the Credit Card companies to reduce the risk of Fraud. If you have signed up for either, then during the payment process you will be transferred to your bank's website to enter your password. This helps further ensure both that the person making the payment is the card holder and provides the reassurance that you are dealing with a legitimate site by displaying your chosen User Name.
Why do I need to input my address?
To provide further security the address and post code can be checked against those of the card holder.

Minor injuries reported in Flagler school bus crash
Published: Monday, February 4, 2013 at 11:17 a.m.

A school bus on its way to Flagler Palm Coast High School hit a van stopped in the median sending three to the hospital with minor injuries, said Flagler County Sheriff's Lt. Bob Weber.
The crash happened at 7:38 a.m. Monday, Weber said. Both the van and the school bus were pulling off of Pine Grove Drive to head south on Belle Terre Parkway, he said. The van stopped in the median.
"The bus driver didn't see that the van was still there and hit it when it pulled out," Weber said.
One teenager on the bus complained of back pain, the lieutenant said, but medical treatment was refused when the mother arrived.
"The three people in the van were taken to Florida Hospital Flagler with minor injuries," Weber said.
No names have been released, and the crash remains under investigation.

When the phone rang one afternoon last December, it was an unfamiliar number, but I immediately recognized my father's area code. It was his landlord. Before he'd uttered a single word, I was already braced for bad news.
And while the news was definitely bad, it wasn't what I expected.
"Have you seen your father's place?" came a voice with a thick Thai accent.
"Oh boy," I thought, "we're finally going to have to deal with this."
The Secret Life of a Hoarder
My 85-year-old father lives four hours away from me, but I don't get to visit as often as I'd like. My work keeps me very busy, gas is expensive here in Southern California, plus I have to spring for a hotel and restaurant meals when I visit because there's no room at his place. There's barely room for him. Over the years, my father "graduated" from being a pack rat to a bona fide hoarder.
Ever since my parents divorced in the 1960s, Dad has lived alone. The first decade, he rented a 4,000-square-foot former youth center for $300 a month. For the past 23 years, he has lived in an 800-square-foot studio in a rough neighborhood in San Diego. It's a dump, but the rent still eats up a big chunk of his Social Security and veteran's pension.
My father is smart, funny, interesting and interested in life. He likes particle physics and all kinds of music, from jazz to classical to Latin. He still makes the 20-minute drive over the border to Tijuana regularly to hear live salsa music. Back in the day, my pop was a gifted and respected jazz pianist, but he quit playing about five years ago, when his arthritis got too bad. I think that's when his life went off the rails.
I started noticing that my father's musical "collections" were getting out of hand. His place was packed with some 10,000 LPs, stacks of CDs that were inching toward his bed and 33 loudspeakers, stacked floor-to-ceiling (talk about a "wall of sound").
Gradually the items filling his place weren't just music and audio devices: He also had thousands of plastic shopping bags, boxes of books and tons of junky items acquired at thrift stores.
On a visit three or four years ago, I did my best to hide my horror and offered to do "a little cleaning up." Wearing a face mask and rubber gloves, I solicited his guidance on what could be thrown out. I bought some large plastic boxes and put his important papers in there; clothing was folded and placed into plastic hampers. After a few hours, we had created a "doughnut hole" in the middle of his living room. We had a long way to go, but it was a start.
My Father Is a Hoarder
When I learned how serious the problem was, I educated myself on what to do — and not do
When the phone rang one afternoon last December, it was an unfamiliar number, but I immediately recognized my father's area code. It was his landlord. Before he'd uttered a single word, I was already braced for bad news.

Game 1:USC 1, Arizona 0 (Final)
» Full Recap » Box Score
Wyatt Strahan outdueled James Farris, and the University of Southern California baseball team savored a first-inning run en route to a 1-0 victory over visiting Arizona on Thursday night in the opener of a three-game series at Dedeaux Field. Strahan (W, 3-3) went the distance, scattering five hits and two walks to go along with six strikeouts in the complete game effort. The hard-throwing right-hander kept the Wildcats off balance with his breaking ball, and allowed only one hit after the fourth inning. USC produced all of the offense it needed in the first inning, sparked by a leadoff single from Garrett Stubbs. He was bunted to second by Timmy Robinson, and Jeremy Martinez followed with a run-scoring single.

"Good fall recipe. I thought that the sweet potatoes had a perfect texture, but found that my parsnips were slightly too firm. Will just cut into slightly smaller pieces next time. Used sun-dried tomato pesto because I could not find anything else."

"It is easy to prepare, that is the good part. Totally lacking flavor, I added 1/2 cup Worchester sauce with about 1/2 an hour left to cook or it would have been almost tasteless. Parsnips were just right but the sweet potatoes turned to almost mush. Will not make this one again."

Wallops doesn't only launch rockets. Some scientific research can be done much more cheaply using instruments lofted by reusable balloons. Here, we get an introduction to this program.
Wallops doesn't only launch rockets. Some scientific research can be done much more cheaply using instruments lofted by reusable balloons. Here, we get an introduction to this program.
Scale models of the balloons used by NASA were on display.
Two Wallops staff members introduce the press to the facility's bread-and-butter: rocketry.
Careful where you point that thing...
"We point it that way." More seriously, Wallops builds a set of rockets with different capabilities using a collection of parts that can be mixed and matched.
Some of the different vehicles made possible by this mix-and-match system.
The payloads on these rockets are smaller, but you can squeeze a lot into them.
The press gets to view the launch control room at Wallops.
Different screens display the launch area and local maps.
The control room has a mix of hardware that can be reconfigured for a number of purposes.
Some of that hardware has been in use for a while.
LADEE, the Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer, is the reason everyone was gathered at Wallops. It's the first time this facility was used to send something to the Moon.
Erik Svensson
A full view of the launch gantry, where the Minotaur V was being prepped to send LADEE toward the Moon.
With the press on hand, Wallops opened the gantry to give us a view of the rocket.
The rocket is a repurposed ICBM, called the Peacekeeper while in service.
Some of the crew were still at work on the afternoon of the launch.
Zooming back, those same people provide a sense of the size of the rocket.
The crew takes a break to have a look at the press below.
It's almost show time as the gantry has been moved back from the Minotaur.
The rocket's exhaust lights up the night sky.
With the last support being pulled away, LADEE departs for the Moon.
Ars was lucky enough to have a reader on hand for last weekend's launch of the LADEE lunar orbiter at NASA's Wallops Flight Facility. He got an introduction to some of the other work done at Wallops, a visit to the Minotaur rocket and its control room, and was on hand to photograph the launch itself. He also provided a first-hand account of the visit and launch.

Nelsons Three Goals Guides No. 14 Mens Water Polo to 9-7 Win Over SCU
ESPNU Game Replay
Princeton Invitational Tournament Central
The 14th-ranked Princeton men's water polo team opened the 2013 season employing a three-goal fourth quarter rally to top 16th-ranked Santa Clara, 9-7, Friday evening in DeNunzio Pool live on ESPNU.
The Tigers (1-0) continue Princeton Invitational action on Saturday with an exhibition contest versus Penn at 9 a.m. and Harvard at 5:30 p.m.
Sophomore Thomas Nelson led the offense with three goals, while adding a team-high five steals in his return to action after missing the 2012 campaign. In goal, Alex Gow had nine saves and a steal in his complete game victory.
Princeton experienced a defensive breakdown to open the game, leaving Gow in a one-on-one situation that lifted the Broncos to a 1-0 lead at 7:26. The game would see back-and-forth play for much of the first three quarters, as the Tigers worked through their season-opening jitters.
The Tigers responded to SCU's early momentum push with a pair of goals from Jamie Kuprenas and a left-handed shot on the far post from Nelson to take a 2-1 lead at 6:28.
Princeton was unable to parlay its two-goal run into a further push before Santa Clara knotted things up. Possession continually transferred as both sides looked to garner control, but missed shots and saves by the goalies held off further activity on the scoreboard.
At 4:56, Hoffenberg sliced one into the goal to provide Princeton with a 3-2 advantage. The Tigers looked poised to make a multi-goal run, seeing several key steals and stops in front of the cage, but they were unable to capitalize on their offensive drives and concluded the first quarter tied 3-3.
The second quarter saw a two-goal run by Santa Clara to open things up and Princeton's best chances to respond saw a shot deflect off the crossbar and a lob over the Bronco goalie's head stopping just short of crossing the goal line.
Following their close misses, Hoffenberg and freshman Jovan Jeremic brought the Tigers back in it and tied the game, 5-5 at 1:54.
The goal marked the first of Jeremic's career. Hoffenberg finished the game with a pair of goals, four steals, two assists and a field block.
As the first half wound down, Santa Clara took the final offensive possession. In another man-on-man drive for Gow, he lunged out of the water and prevented the Broncos from going into halftime with the lead by clobbering the ball off his chest.
In his return to action at Princeton, Nelson found a way to thrill the fans in DeNunzio. At 4:12 in the third, he corralled the ball on the right side with some distance from the goal and slammed in a no-look shot to give the Tigers a 6-5 lead.
As they had done all game, the Broncos managed to tie things up and turn that into another two-goal run.
Down 7-6 entering the fourth quarter, Princeton's defense held a tight line and rejected every Santa Clara shot over the final eight-minute period.
On the other end of the pool, Kurt Buchbinder ignited a 3-0 Tiger run to put the game away. Nelson scored the game-winner with 6:51 on another memorable shot, this time with a Bronco defender tight on him he sent a behind the back shot in from the left side.
Along with Jeremic, Curtis Fink and Lachie Kermode made their Tiger debuts off the bench.
No. 14 Princeton: 3 – 2 – 1 – 3 – 9
No. 16 Santa Clara: 3 – 2 – 2 – 0 – 7
Goals: Nelson 3, Shannon 1, Hoffenberg 2, Buchbinder 1, Kuprenas 1
Assists: Wachtell 1, Butler 1, Hoffenberg 2, Buchbinder 1, Jeremic 1
Steals: Nelson 5, Galainena 1, Fink 2, Wachtell 2, Butler 1, Shannon 1, Hoffenberg 4, Buchbinder 2, Gow 1
Saves: Gow 9

MY BODY IN MY TWENTIES As I neared 30, I inched toward 200 pounds, eventually, by 31, filling out a size-22 dress. I dressed quickly every morning to avoid catching a glimpse of my body in the mirror.
THE TURNING POINT I started to have terrible stomachaches, but I was afraid to go to the doctor because I didn't want to find out there was something seriously wrong. The pain waxed and waned for about six months until one day in 2007, when I was 31, I had such severe cramps that I passed out. My mother found me unconscious on my couch and rushed me to the hospital. It turned out I had diabetic ketoacidosis, a life-threatening medical condition. My glucose levels were 10 times higher than normal,and my pancreas had stopped functioning. I was in the ICU for four days. When I finally got home, I vowed I would do whatever it took to get healthy.
THE MAKEOVER The hospital nutritionist gave me a diet plan that was full of processed foods and sugar-free sweets. I may have been obese, but I did know something about nutrition, so I thought I could do better. I retrained my palate, cutting out refined carbs and sugar and teaching myself how to cook wholesome, diabetic-friendly meals. To replace my old fattening favorites, I developed what I call trick-me food, like pizza frittatas and baked zucchini fries.
I started going to the gym four times a week for half an hour, alternating 10-minute sessions on the treadmill with crunches on the mat. Then I'd try to walk the two and a half miles home. I was losing weight for my health, but as people started telling me how great I looked, I became more motivated. I stepped up my gym sessions to six times a week, staying longer and working harder.
THE MILESTONE In 19 months, I lost 100 pounds. I remember going to Macy's and for the first time in years buying pants that didn't have an elastic waistband. What I was seeing on the outside was finally mirroring the person who'd always been on the inside.
MY BODY TODAY I love my body. My stomach is flat, and my long-lost friend, my collarbone, is back. At 105 pounds, I've kept my womanly curves, but I'm firm. Best of all, I'm healthy. I still check my blood sugar three times a day, but I haven't needed insulin since 2009.

Zoe Kravitz
Los Angeles, California
"It's an easy diss when people don't want to like me and want to say that I'm a brat. You have people who only want to be your friend because of that, or you have those who say, 'Oh, Zoe thinks she is so cool cause her dad is...'"
- Zoe Kravitz
Zoe Kravitz is less "known" for her magazine spreads or her acting than she is for being the daughter of rocker Lenny Kravitz and The Cosby Show alum Lisa Bonet.
Zoe Kravitz BiographyZoe Isabella Kravitz was born on December 1, 1988, in Los Angeles, California to mother Lisa Bonet, who played the second-oldest daughter on The Cosby Show, and to father Lenny Kravitz, a popular rock musician. Her paternal grandmother, Roxie Roker, was also famous for acting in the hit show The Jeffersons. Not surprisingly, Zoe Kravitz grew up immersed in the arts, and latched on to acting herself when she became a teenager.
zoe kravitz models for elle Given her unique look, Zoe Kravitz began modeling at a young age. She appeared in the magazine Teen Vogue as well as French Jalouse. However, when Zoe Kravitz was just 17, she was photographed drinking from a large bottle of beer, which caused huge controversy. Zoe Kravitz never denied having been drinking, and her father Lenny reportedly told his daughter that the experience had been a good lesson in living in the public eye.
In March 2007, Zoe Kravitz had a sexy spread in Elle magazine.
zoe kravitz in no reservations and assassination of a high school presidentIn her quest to conquer the arts, Zoe Kravitz turned her sights to acting. In 2007, she had roles in two film projects -- No Reservations with Catherine Zeta-Jones and The Brave One, a crime drama starring Jodie Foster.
Then, in 2008, she worked on flicks like the dramatic comedy Birds of America and the Mischa Barton comedy Assassination of a High School President. She also worked on Jay-Z's music video for the single "I Know."
zoe kravitz faces controversy with nipple picsIn addition to finding success on the big screen, Zoe Kravitz again found herself caught up in controversy in 2008. Pictures began circulating on the internet of Zoe Kravitz wearing a top that was more revealing than she thought (we think).
Zoe Kravitz is attending the prestigious SUNY Purchase Acting Conservatory in New York. She dated actor Ben Foster, who starred in flicks like X-Men: The Last Stand and 3:10 to Yuma, for several months in 2007-08.

Or he woulda showed up drunk. Sometimes things seem out of place. But I was thinking of what to say, and the only thing I could really think of, was that the one thing my dad would've really thought, was that to be a human is to come and go sometimes; you don't have a body for long, but you have a spirit. And as long as there's people (and there's a lot of them in this room tonight) who care about other people around the world, who do the Farm Aid shows, and the shows for folks over in Africa or wherever it is, his spirit is still alive - still working, still singing - and I think this is why I had to come anyhow, and say thank you."

When it comes to drinking, we tend to follow Homer Simpson's lead: "Mmmm . . . beer."
But not all women share our sentiment for suds. Molson Coors thinks it can change that, however, by turning beer pink.
The New York Daily News reports the brewer's new Animée, launching soon in the U.K., has 4 percent alcohol and lemony and rosé flavors, and is being marketed to the fairer sex.
There's definitely room for improvement when it comes to reaching women in the beer market. According to the newspaper, a 2008 Portfolio magazine survey found women constitute just a quarter of beer drinkers, and, Molson Coors says, 79 percent of women don't drink beer because they find it causes bloat and weight gain.
Bloat, schmoat. We return to the wise words of Homer Simpson: "Homer no function beer well without."

Ave Scores First Career Goal in 2-1 Loss to No. 16 UMass Lowell
Box Score
PRINCETON, N.J. (11/12/13) - No. 16 UMass Lowell went 2 for 4 on the power play to earn a 2-1 win over Princeton in men's hockey on Tuesday night at Hobey Baker Rink.
Junior defender Aaron Ave scored his first career goal at 16:45 of the first period to give Princeton (1-6) the 1-0 lead. Classmate Aaron Kesselman had a shot get blocked in traffic before freshman Ryan Siiro collected it and sent it to the left point for Ave. Ave ripped a shot that made its way through traffic and past Doug Carr in net.
Senior Sean Bonar weathered the storm on the other end as the River Hawks outshot Princeton 16-8 in the first period.
Chris Maniccia evened the game with one minute left in the first period, converting on the only penalty of the first frame. Zack Kamrass started the breakout to Christian Folin down the left side. Folin circled behind the goal and sent it back up the blue line to Maniccia who fired for the goal.
The Tigers held its own during the final two periods but UMass Lowell (6-4) took the lead.
A penalty at the end of the second period gave the River Hawks the man advantage to start the third and they capitalized. Derek Arnold passed across the blue line to Josh Holmstom who sent the puck down low to Joseph Pendenza. Arnold cut to the middle while Holmstrom set a screen and Pendenza found Arnold for the goal.
Princeton pulled Bonar for the final 1:19 and had a number of bids but couldn't sneak the equalizer by Carr, who capped the night with 19 saves.
Bonar finished the night with 29 saves, with his best coming less than a minute into the second period on a Terrance Wallin one-on-one.
Princeton returns to ECAC action this weekend when it hosts Dartmouth and Harvard, Nov. 15 & 16. Both games are at 7 p.m.

LOS ANGELES – Big picture, Lakers point guard Steve Nash endorsing Phil Jackson's potential return with the triangle offense as "a great opportunity to try something new" is more important than any November victory.
Dwight Howard, whose voice is the most important from the locker room for the Lakers to mind, reiterated his support for Jackson, saying: "It'd be great for all of us."
The Lakers continue to hope for a reunion with Jackson, who is giving the idea of restarting his career some time to marinate, as he likes to do with major decisions.
While waiting for the big other shoe to drop, very possibly by Monday, the Lakers improved to 2-0 since firing Mike Brown by handling the Sacramento Kings, 103-90, on Sunday night at Staples Center.
Kobe Bryant said he has trust in Lakers management to get the next coach in place soon. He said he has been consulted on the matter enough to convey "how I feel about Phil."
Jackson would bring his own coaching staff and an offense with more structure than what interim coach Bernie Bickerstaff describes as his approach now: "Play on your instincts."
As Pau Gasol said, the Lakers were "off and on" Sunday night, but the instincts, size and athleticism of Dwight Howard (23 points, 18 rebounds, three blocks, two steals) were evident against a young Sacramento team missing suspended center DeMarcus Cousins.
Continued lack of cohesion might not get it done in the next game vs. San Antonio on Tuesday night, when the Lakers will still be without Nash (leg fracture) and hope Steve Blake (abdominal strain) will be available after being limited to 14 minutes Sunday night.
But for now, a 2-0 record and rampant expectation of Jackson's return is much better than 1-4 and confusion over what Brown was teaching.
"It could've worked," Gasol said. "But it seemed complicated at times for us."

About the Grand Jury
An Introduction to the
Bringing Matters to the Attention of the
Functions and Responsibilities
If you have matters having to do with public agencies, public officials, or special districts in Contra Costa County that you believe should be brought to the attention of the Grand Jury, they may be addressed to:
Contra Costa Grand Jury
P.O. Box 431
Martinez, CA 94553-0091
Your letter or complaint form will be treated with total confidentiality. Though not required in order for the Jury to review and consider contact correspondence from a citizen, providing your name and address will make it possible for the Jury to acknowledge receipt of the information and facilitate further interaction with you if appropriate. There is a Complaint Form available in PDF format that you can print out and use. (You will need the Adobe Acrobat Reader to review and print the form). You can also e-mail the form to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Following a month's orientation, grand jurors generally devote 20 hours per week or more for a period of one year (July 1 through June 30). It is not uncommon for Grand Jury members to serve four or five days of any given week, so they must have ample time and reliable transportation to participate effectively in Grand Jury activities.
Grand jurors must have a genuine interest in community affairs and an ability to work with others. Every juror must file a Statement of Economic Interest (FPPC Form 700) within 30 days of impanelment.
Grand Jury responsibilities are generally divided into civil and criminal matters. The Contra Costa Grand Jury investigates principally civil matters; however, it may occasionally hear evidence of a criminal nature.
In Contra Costa County, the Grand Jury is impaneled annually and is comprised of 19 members. Grand Jurors are officers of the court and function as an independent body under the guidance of a Superior Court Judge.
A) Watchdog Responsibilities: The Contra Costa Grand Jury is authorized to examine city and county governments and special districts to ensure their duties are lawfully conducted. The Grand Jury reviews and evaluates procedures used by these entities to determine whether more efficient and economical policies may be employed.
In addition, the Grand Jury is authorized to:
- Inquire into the conditions and management of jails and detention centers.
- Inquire into charges of willful misconduct in office by public officials or employees.
B) Reports: The Grand Jury issues its findings and recommendations in written reports. At least 12 members of the Grand Jury must approve each report. Within 60 to 90 days following the issuance of a report, officials responsible for matters addressed in the report must respond in writing to the supervising Judge.
At the end of its term, the Grand Jury publishes a single volume containing all reports issued during the year. It then distributes copies of the Final Report to public officials, libraries, the news media and interested organizations. Click here to see the index of reports. .
The concept of juries dates back to Norman times in the ninth century. By 1215, the jury concept had evolved into a guarantee expressed in the Magna Carta that no free man would be "imprisoned or [dispossessed] or exiled or in any way destroyed ... except by the judgement of peers."
Grand Juries are investigatory bodies created to protect society and the enforcement of the law. In the United States, the Massachusetts Bay Colony impaneled the first Grand Jury in 1635 to consider cases of murder, robbery and wife beating.
The U.S. Constitution's Fifth Amendment and the California Constitution call for Grand Juries. Grand Juries were established throughout California during the early years of statehood.
The Superior Court Judge responsible for the Grand Jury appoints a foreman from the impaneled jurors who presides at all full jury proceedings and is responsible for directing the business of the Grand Jury.
Apart from the investigations mandated by the California Penal Code, each county's Grand Jury decides what it will investigate. Investigations may be initiated in response to letters from citizens, newspaper articles and personal knowledge.
Grand Juries accomplish most of their work in committees whose findings are reported to the full Grand Jury for approval. Contra Costa County's Grand Jury committees usually include Audit and Budget, Special Districts, Government, Law and Justice, Health and Social Services, Child Welfare, Editorial, and Compliance and Review.
According to Penal Code 893, prospective grand jurors must possess the following qualifications:
- Be a citizen of the United States, age 18 or older and a resident of the county for at least one year immediately before being sworn.
- Be in possession of natural facilities and ordinary intelligence and of sound judgment and fair character.
- Possess sufficient knowledge of the English language.
No person is eligible to act as a grand juror if any of the following apply:
- The person is serving in an elective office or as a trial juror in any court in California.
- The person has been discharged as a grand juror in any court in California within one year.
- The person has been convicted of malfeasance in office or any felony or other high crime.
In addition to a small payment for meetings and reimbursement for allowable travel, arrangements are made for parking.
Contra Costa County residents are encouraged to apply for service on their Grand Jury.
Written applications are screened for eligibility, then judges interview potential jurors and select citizens from each supervisorial district. This process reduces the list to about 30 candidates. Jurors are then chosen by random drawing about one month prior to the commencement of the Grand Jury's year-long term of service, which begins July 1 of each year after a one-month comprehensive orientation program.
The law provides that the supervising Judge may hold over as many as up to 10 members from the previous Grand Jury to be included in the total of 19 jurors.

PEORIA, Ill. -- Senior Jackie Roth (Hickory Hills, Ill./Stagg) and sophomore Bailiegh Basham (Mattoon, Ill./Mattoon/Lake Land C.C.) hit back-to-back solo homers in the bottom of the first inning, but Jayna Spivey's third-inning grand slam helped power Southern Illinois to an 11-5 victory against Bradley Sunday afternoon at Laura Bradley Park in the final game of the regular season for both teams.
After taking both games of Saturday's doubleheader, Bradley (21-29 overall, 11-15 MVC) appeared to be in control early on after the back-to-back homers by Roth, who was playing the final home game of her career, and Basham in the bottom of the first gave the Braves an early 2-0 lead.
Senior Lindsay Hufeld (Mapleton, Ill./Limestone/Illinois Central) started in the circle for the Braves and pitched around singles in each of the first two innings before Southern Illinois (34-19 overall, 16-10 MVC) ended a 10-inning scoreless streak with five runs in the top of the third.
A hit batter and single by Kelsea Ashton led to a run and the Salukis loaded the bases after another hit batter and Bradley error. The Braves got a force out at the plate for the second out of the inning and it appeared BU was going to get out of the inning with minimal damage when Spivey ripped a 1-2 pitch over the fence in left center to give SIU a 5-2 lead.
Southern Illinois added four more runs in the top of the fourth after a leadoff walk to Alicia Junker. Mallory Duran had a RBI double and later scored on a two-out single by Taylor Orsburn. A walk and hit batter loaded the bases again for Spivey, who reached on BU's second error of the game. Meredith Wilson capped the inning with a two-out single up the middle to push the Salukis advantage to 9-2.
SIU added two more runs in the top of the fifth on another run-scoring single by Orsburn and the Salukis lead stood at 11-2 after Mallory Duran scored on a fielder's choice.
Bradley threatened to climb back into the game in the bottom half of the inning, pushing three runs across before SIU pitcher Katie Bertelsen got out of a bases loaded jam to end the inning.
Sophomore Brianne Joseph (Post Falls, idaho/Post Falls) opened the Bradley portion of the fifth with a pinch-hit single and scored after back-to-back singles by senior Julie Sherman (Hickory Hills, Ill./Stagg) and Roth, respectively. Basham drew her team-leading 35th walk of the year and Sherman raced home on a wild pitch on the play. Roth later scored on a double play to cut the Southern Illinois lead to 11-5.
With the bases empty and two outs, Bradley kept the rally going after freshman Alyson Clemente (Murrieta, Calif./Murrieta Valley) was hit by a pitch. Sophomore Alex Chandler (Needles, Calif./Needles) and senior Alison Kresl (Kankakee, Ill./Bishop McNamara) each drew walks to load the bases and knock reliever Alyssa Wunderlich out of the game.
After getting lifted from the game earlier in the inning, Berterlsen re-entered the circle for SIU and retired the first batter she faced to end the Bradley threat in the fifth. The Braves went down in order in the sixth and came up empty in the seventh after Basham was hit by a pitch to open the frame as Southern Illinois avoided the sweep with the 11-5 victory.
Hufeld took the loss for the Braves in her final home game, dropping to 2-2 on the year. Bertelsen improved to 12-11 for Southern Illinois, striking out five and walking one in six-and-one-third innings of work.
Bradley is the #7 seed for this week's State Farm Missouri Valley Conference Tournament, which will be held Thursday, Friday and Saturday in Carbondale, Ill. The Braves will face #6 seed Missouri State Thursday at 1:30 p.m. in the opening round with the winner advancing to face #3 seed Drake later that day at 6:30 p.m.

The Olympic Story of Bronze Medalist, Georgia Gould
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
Hear pretty much start to finish how Georgia Gould prepared for the Olympics, raced and and how she celebrated it. Wonderful read from Your Group Ride!
Snippet from Your Group Ride
The gun went off and the crowd ROARED. The start was fast and the right side was NOT. Everyone was amped up and riding like crazy, and I narrowly avoided some craziness during the 1 minute start loop. We headed into the first rock drop where women were lined up for all 3 of the line options, and a course marshall was holding up a yellow flag signaling that there had been a crash. I saw an opening on the A-line, and dropped into it, just missing the woman who had crashed and was picking up her bike. It was mayhem. We hit the next technical spot and things balled up again as women lined up to ride over the rock slowly in single file. I was back in the twenties, and my hopes faded as I watched the pack in front of me string out to go through the technical sections.

Jaguars cut Ryan Davis from their practice squad
Published: Thursday, November 22, 2012 at 5:28 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, November 22, 2012 at 6:10 p.m.
Former Bethune-Cookman defensive end Ryan Davis was cut from the Jacksonville Jaguars' practice squad Wednesday. It was the second time he had been on the teams' practice squad this season.
Davis, the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference defensive player of the year in 2011, was waived when the Jags re-signed fullback Will Ta'uf'ou to the practice squad. Davis, an undrafted free agent, started the season on the practice squad but was promoted to Jacksonville's 53-man roster Oct. 5.
He played in one game -- against the Bears for 18 snaps Oct. 7 -- but was cut Oct. 23 when the Jags added a running back to the roster after Maruice Jones-Drew got hurt.

This weekend, don't miss the opportunity to catch an evening of music with 1997 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductee Felix Cavaliere, who long fronted the Rascals. Cavaliere is a great friend of the Museum, and has supported us with his presence and performances on numerous occasions. Cavaliere and his band will play two shows (7 pm and 9 pm) on Saturday, December 3 at the Tangier in Akron.
The Rascals were paragons of "blue-eyed soul," achieving commercial success beyond that of their peers – among them, the Righteous Brothers, Steve Winwood, Van Morrison and Joe Cocker. The group's indelible originals and energized covers were lead by Cavaliere's Hammond B-3 organ and expressive lead vocals.
These days, Cavaliere typically performs songs from a playlist of 19 chart-topping hits from his years as leader of the Rascals. Expect to hear the Rascals' famous uptempo cover of the Olympics' "Good Lovin'" (Number One in 1966), the soul-pop reverie of "Groovin'" (Number One in 1967); and the Rascals' biggest hit, "People Got to Be Free," a powerful response to the assassinations of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy and Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. that topped the Billboard charts for five weeks in 1968. The set will also likely include a personal favorite of mine and my bride Sally, "Mustang Sally," which Cavaliere and the Rascals released prior to Wilson Pickett's popular version. It promises to be a night filled with iconic rock favorites delivered as only Cavaliere can.

Two Magnolia residents, identified as Philip Johnson-Bevins, 20, and Kyle L. Barnes, 17, have been arrested by Delaware State Police after they allegedly damaged property in the Woodfield development, west of Magnolia.
At around 4:55 a.m. Friday, troopers were called to the area of Sunny Meadow Drive after receiving a report about two persons trespassing, said police spokesman Master Cpl. Gary Fournier.
Troopers spotted two persons walking along Sunny Meadow Drive, but they ran off when approached. They later were found in one of the suspects' home on Winding Wood Drive.
Troopers determined the two had been drinking beer before taking a walk through the neighborhood and removing property from various yards, Fournier said.
Johnson-Bevins and Barnes allegedly put the stolen items in the yard of a home in the 100 block of Glenn Forest Drive, then placed a hose from the house into the victim's gasoline tank and turned on the water.
They were in the process of making a homemade incendiary device but were thwarted by the arrival of the troopers, Fournier said.
Both were charged with second-degree attempted reckless endangering, three counts of theft under $1,500, third-degree conspiracy, underage consumption of alcohol and nine counts of third-degree criminal trespass.
Johnson-Bevins was released on a $4,000 unsecured bond and ordered to have no contact with anyone in the Woodfield development.
Barnes was released on a $4,400 unsecured bond and, since he lives there, was ordered to have no unlawful contact with anyone in the Woodfield development.
