EUGENE, Ore. – Elizabeth Brenner got the women on the scoreboard and the Ducks saw five runners advance to the finals on a warm and sunny Wednesday at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships before 9,001 fans at Historic Hayward Field.
"Overall, the women have done well," said Oregon head coach Robert Johnson. "They have done what was expected, so there were no surprises. It's about getting to the next day. We worry about today, today, and tomorrow, tomorrow. Those that handle the highs and lows will be happy on Saturday."
Kansas led the women's competition with 17 points, followed by Georgia, Arizona State, Texas Christian and Iowa State with 10.
Mississippi and Texas shared the men's lead with 10 points, followed by Oral Roberts and Arizona State with eight each.
Brenner, the Ducks' four-sport star from Portland, Ore., uncorked a personal best throw of 168-9/51.43m that stood up for eighth place in the final standings and one team point. The throw, coming on her second attempt, spiked into the ground with nearly an eight foot personal best and moved Brenner up to fifth in the UO career top 10.
"I wasn't expecting to be here, but I was definitely going for it," said Brenner, who was not projected to score on the pre-meet form charts. "It was a really fun day for me.
"This is definitely a lot of fun. I've made a lot of friends in track and I'm having a lot of fun with it. I'm just very proud, it's been a great season. I've got great coaches and teammates who have been pushing me all season and it's been a lot of fun."
The women saw both English Gardner and Jenna Prandini make the finals in the 100 meters, Phyllis Francis move on in the 400 and Laura Roesler advance in the 800. The women's 4x100 meter relay also moved on.
For the men, Elijah Greer was confident in making the final in the 800.
Gardner ran the second fastest 100 meter semifinal time on Wednesday, taking second in her heat in a wind-aided 11.00. The junior from Voorhees, N.J., was edged by Central Florida's Octavious Freeman, who won in 10.99.
"My goal was just to make it to the finals and I did," said Gardner. "I have to take it day-by-day and race-by-race. I didn't run my hardest; I eased up a little because I only had to get in the top two."
Prandini continued her remarkable freshman season by making the national finals in the 100. She was second in her heat in a wind-aided 11.14, an all-conditions PR for the Clovis, Calif., native.
"It was so great being here with the Hayward magic," said Prandini. "The crowd cheered me on the whole way. When I finished and they cheered, I knew something good happened."
Francis also cruised to the finals in the 400. She coasted to second in her heat in 51.83, just behind Illinois' Ashley Spencer, who ran 51.61. Junior Chizoba Okodogbe placed fifth in heat three in 52.57 and did not advance.
Laura Roesler took control of her 800 meter heat to win in 2:03.63. The junior from Fargo, N.D., had the second-fastest time advancing to the finals.
The four sprinters – Francis, Gardner, Prandini and Okodogbe – led Oregon to a victory in its 4x100 meter relay semifinal heat. The Ducks won in their fastest time of the year, 43.72, which was third fastest in school history.
"Laura Roesler had a really controlled race and made it look easy, so I am happy with that," said Johnson. "Jenna (Prandini) wasn't suppose to even be in that race so for her to get to finals is huge."
Also for the women, sophomore Jillian Weir had a best effort of 196-10/60.01m in the hammer to place 17th.
Greer's dominance in the 800 meter semifinal was the highlight on a light day for the men.
The senior from Lake Oswego, Ore., once again took control of his race after the first lap and went on to win in 1:48.76.
"I didn't like my starting lane," said Greer. "I like being in lane five or six because it's hard to be right in front. I got boxed in during the first lap.
"I just want to put myself in a good spot – that's what I need to do. I need to run smart."
Junior Mike Berry had a rough race in the 400. He finished fourth in his heat in 45.70 and missed advancing to finals based on time by a few thousandths of a second.
Oregon's football contingent helped Oregon to a sixth place finish in the 4x100 meter relay. The Ducks did not advance, but the team of Dior Mathis, Arthur Delaney, B.J. Kelley and De'Anthony Thomas still ran a season best 39.89 that ranked as the sixth fastest in school history. Oregon placed 16th overall.
In the decathlon, Dakotah Keys stood 15th with 3,941 points. The sophomore from Sweet Home, Ore., highlighted his day with a personal best in the shot put of 43-7/13.28m.

Re:Defining Charity
As if we could have been more excited for MTV Re:Define's comeback. After a year's hiatus, the event benefiting MTV Staying Alive Foundation and Dallas Contemporary was back with a big bang. Its Richard Phillips-curated Rock 'n' Roll theme, collaborative art auction by The Future Tense and Peter Doroshenko, and special guests like Jerry Hall hyped up energy for the main event. Co-chairs Joyce Goss and Kenny Goss hosted a preview featuring over 100 artists, including local faves Laura Wilson, and phenoms Damien Hirst and Julian Schnabel. The usual suspects were there to snap Instagram photos and drum up excitement for the gala, including James Cope, Capera Ryan, Ken Downing and Sam Saladino, and Christen and Derek Wilson. –Photography by Jenifer McNeil Baker

Focus on the law. Leave legal support services and IT management to us.
No matter what type of law you practice, you may feel like you're drowning in an ocean of information. Between dealing with changing employee work styles, boatloads of paper, poor information flow, and technology that just doesn't do what you need it to — you are way more involved in legal IT support than you want to be.
Call on our legal IT experts. As a global technology company with the largest national network of document processing centers in the U.S., we know how to manage your information and make sure it's accessible to those who need it, when they need it, and in the form it's needed. And you? You can go back to practicing law.
Stay on top of your information
With the file boxes slowly taking over your office, it's difficult to stay up-to-date with your documents — to say nothing of having any of that information readily accessible.
Hold on to your affidavits, because there is a better way. Tell us how your firm works, and our Workflow Solutions for Legal will show you how to capture, manage, transform and access your files — wherever and whenever you want.
And if you need help producing that information in the first place, our Document Processing Services for Legal can take on your high-end document creation and word-processing tasks.
Bring e-information management experts onsite
Our Legal Advanced Capture Solutions team can help you figure out all the steps leading up to and including electronic court filing. And the people we put onsite will take care of scanning, records imaging, OCR, and PDF/A generation.
Recover costs with the right law office technology
Mistakes or gaps in your cost recovery process eat into profits. Our Legal Cost Recovery Solutions provide accuracy and peace of mind through properly equipped servers, multifunction printers (MFPs), scanners, and software. You can print, copy, and scan with real-time reporting and cost allocation. Security access codes tidy up all the numbers. With this information, you'll be able to improve security, know your true copy/print expenses, and bill back accurately.
Expedite case management with litigation support
You have hundreds or thousands of documents to maneuver through the legal system. And when motions, won or lost, throw you off course, you need to adjust quickly. Our Business Information Support (BIS) Facilities assist with scanning, coding, and electronic workflows. Our offsite facilities have the right people and technology, so the necessary information gets to where it's going — and you can work faster and smarter.
Conduct eDiscovery that's legally defensible
Discovery with paper files is one thing. Discovery that involves computers, databases, storage devices, and other electronic media is something else. Work with our eDiscovery team, who know what is and isn't legally defensible in court — and are excellent expert witnesses.
- Ricoh's In-house eDiscovery for Legal Solutions offer the Ricoh Electronic Discovery Insight (REDI) solution network appliance, which lets you search and analyze already-indexed ESI.
- Ricoh's Data Forensics Solutions team provides forensics consulting plus ESI discovery using one or more of four options: Remlox™ Remote ESI collection tool, onsite forensic experts, remote connection to client hardware, and/or remote collection at a certified Ricoh data forensics facility.

Take one more thing off your plate with managed IT and cloud services
In many law firms, IT is a black hole. Our IT Services for Legal solution can handle the applications, network and network security, so you can focus on the law. We'll take IT off your hands entirely or address specific projects or functions — onsite, offsite, cloud-based, or a combination.
You'll add more layers of protection for your information and help make sure it's always accessible to those who need it. We support virtually all legal software applications, and if you need something custom, we'll develop it for you.
Shorten your IT to-do list
Our Professional Services team can help you conquer virtualization, mobile printing, business continuity planning, and the few hundred other things on your IT to-do list. mindSHIFT, a Ricoh company, has completed hundreds of similar projects. Technology upgrades, system migrations, email systems, intranets and extranets, virtual desktops, Microsoft SharePoint projects — our list goes on and on, too.
Have litigation support teams, will travel
We'll put people and equipment where you need them. When you need to prep for trial in multiple cities, engage our on-location Legal Imaging Services team. They'll take care of scanning, copying, coding, and preparing trial exhibits. If you need mobile war rooms in remote locations, suit up because we're there for that, too.

The Utah Museum of Contemporary Art, an award-winning museum exhibiting five galleries of groundbreaking artwork from a variety of local and international artists, is encouraging people to explore the world of contemporary art with the return of their flagship program, Art Fitness Training.
Occurring over three consecutive Saturdays (two in SLC and one in Provo), the program will emphasize close observation and easily understood principles in order to give all audiences a greater ability to appreciate contemporary art.
As Adam Price, executive director at UMOCA puts it, "This is a great chance for anyone who wants to walk into a museum or gallery with confidence, impress their friends with their ability to make sense of contemporary art, or just look darn good standing around an exhibition opening."
The class is designed for adults, and has had great success in helping participants overcome their feelings of inadequacy when confronted with a piece of contemporary art. One participant explained, "I now feel liberated—I can walk into a museum and look at art in a different way without relying on someone else to do it for me."
UMOCA wants people to feel confident in their own powers of intelligent observation and to embrace those difficult contemporary works that intimidate them. They have tailored the Art Fitness Training program to do just that for its participants.
Click here to register. Registration is $75, or $60 for UMOCA members. Class details, directions and parking information will be provided with registration packets.

On Campus
The Peace Corps and SIS – The Partnership Grows
Graduate students in our Peace Corps Fellows Program are immersed in projects in D.C. public schools and community organizations. Their classmates in the Master's International Program are on campus, beginning and continuing an academic experience that will include service in the Peace Corps. And SIS is working with the University Library and other returned Peace Corps volunteers to assemble a national Peace Corps Community Archive.
The School of International Service and the Peace Corps. The relationship is longstanding, but the energy has ramped up this year as increasing numbers of SIS students combine graduate work and Peace Corps service.
That's not surprising given the natural alignment of the goals of both entities: connecting and serving communities.
The Peace Corps Fellows Program allows returning volunteers to take skills they acquired overseas and apply them close to home. This year about a dozen fellows are tackling projects in the District of Columbia.
Like the Peace Corps itself, these community programs challenge SIS students to be innovative, inventive and entrepreneurial. For example, at D.C.'s Woodrow Wilson High School, master's candidates assigned to the Wilson International Studies Program are taking on everything from model United Nations activities to international film clubs to tutoring. At ACCESS Youth, other SIS students are helping at-risk youth build the skills they need to make positive life choices.
When SIS students carry university and Peace Corps values into these projects, they also expose D.C. youth to the notion of international service as a career option. As the nation's capital and a global pulse point, the District of Columbia is an ideal incubator for professions in the world arena. At the same time, the Peace Corps wants to see more diversity in its ranks, something the District could provide.
For individuals debating whether to head to the Peace Corps or enroll in graduate school, our Master's International Program offers a solution: do both. A year of on-campus coursework is followed by a for-credit Peace Corps assignment. Then students return to SIS for a final year of study. To join the program, candidates apply to SIS and the Peace Corps simultaneously.
Graduate programs aside, the affinity between SIS and the Peace Corps is evident in other ways. Returning Peace Corps Volunteers (RPCVs) make up about 10 percent of this semester's incoming class. That's up from seven percent from last year.
Two graduate students at SIS have launched a university-wide student organization of RPCVs. They envision that weekly lunches and occasional happy hours will evolve into creative service projects. The group will also mentor AU undergraduates considering Peace Corps service.
And, of course, there is our initiative to create the Peace Corps Community Archive, something that has me, as an RPCV from Turkmenistan, especially energized. Peace Corps material sit in archives and collections scattered around the country. There is no overarching repository for the stories and artifacts linked to volunteers, their Peace Corps communities and the populations with which they worked. This archive will seek to collect, preserve, and make available the correspondence, diaries, film, photographs, reports, scrapbooks and sound recordings that will preserve the Peace Corps experience.
SIS and the Peace Corps have expectations that dovetail: a commitment to service—particularly beyond home borders, a respect for other cultures, a desire to learn and to share that knowledge and an acknowledgment of personal responsibility. Perhaps it's no wonder, then, that among medium-sized colleges and universities in the United States, American University ranks number three for the number of its graduates students who enter the Peace Corps (and third for the number of its undergraduates who join the Peace Corps).

On the topic of hurricanes and climate change, there are large uncertainties. We have hypotheses regarding the connection, but, at this point, little data. This make for a very interesting teaching topic precisely because of this...But what is the best way to introduce students to this uncertainty?

ATLANTA (Holiday 2011)—Through sparkling snowflakes, three wise men and jingle bells, 9 children from metro Atlanta are sharing their creativity for a good cause: the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Holiday Card Program. Each of the children's artwork comprises one of nine Christmas, Hanukah or winter-themed greetings cards that will raise money for Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. Since the cards debuted more than 20 years ago, personal and corporate purchases have raised more than $2 million to care for the hundreds of thousands of sick and injured children each year in Georgia.
The 2011 Holiday Card Program also features holiday season cards and a thank you card. The youthful minds behind this year's creations hail from Alpharetta, City of Atlanta, Decatur, Lilburn, Mableton, Marietta, Snellville and West Point.
Proceeds from the 2011 Holiday Card program will benefit multiple Children's service lines, including the Aflac Cancer Center and Blood Disorders Service, Emergency Departments, Marcus Autism Center, Pediatric Intensive Care Units, Respiratory, Surgery, Sibley Heart Center and Transplant Services.
On any given day at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, 550 children and teens are treated in the Emergency Departments. At least 100 surgeries are performed – many offering second chances at life through organ transplants. And one new cancer patient is diagnosed, with a team of doctors and researchers dedicated to curing his disease. Every day, the lifesaving work would not be possible without the generous philanthropic and volunteer support Children's relies on as a not-for-profit organization. Children's is committed to caring for the hundreds of thousands of sick and injured children every year in Georgia – with no child turned away simply because of a family's inability to pay. With three hospitals and 17 neighborhood locations, Children's is one of the largest clinical care providers for children in the country. By supporting Children's through the 2011 Holiday Card Program, you are helping save the lives of children and teens.

After all the denials and wasted taxpayer money, Attorney General John Swallow resigned today, presumably to avoid prosecution and/or impeachment. This comes months after anyone with an IQ larger than their hat size had concluded the former AG is a slimeball. It got to the point that babies cried and dogs barked when Swallow entered a room.
How bad was it? Even KSL's soft-ball pitcher Doug Wright expressed skepticism a couple weeks ago about Swallow's honesty—to the AG's face. That's way bad.
But the resignation is not good news in many ways. First, It's all the Republican-controlled Legislature will need to halt the investigations into Swallow's sordid deals that have been giving citizens a glimpse of political business as usual in Utah.—many done on behalf of .
In a state that lauds itself incessantly on its great management, the Swallow investigations were uncovering a very different story of justice twisted and perverted for political and monetory gain. It's a story that would make old-time political bosses blush.
Second, Swallow, former Attorney General Mark Shurleff and their lieutenants and alleged co-conspirators need to be pursued, if only to restore public faith in the AG's office and, frankly, clean house.
As someone once said about political corruption: Follow the money.

Red Sox pitcher Daniel Bard joined WEEI.com's Rob Bradford for an appearance on the Bradford Files podcast and talked about his planned transformation from reliever to starter.
Bard said that heading into the offseason he expected that Jonathan Papelbon would re-sign with the team, and he saw an opportunity to move into the starting rotation.
"I told Ben [Cherington] when I heard [John] Lackey was having surgery and [Tim Wakefield] is a free agent, I saw two openings in the starting rotation," said Bard, who initially was a starter as a Red Sox minor leaguer. "The last two years I haven't said it much, but in my own head, just watching the guys in this league that have had a lot of success in a starting role, I just felt like I could do that. I've got as good or better raw stuff as them. I try to keep myself in good shape. I felt like everything I have at this point, that I could have success in that role. So, I told Ben that.
"Then when Pap signed with the Phillies, it was maybe a week or two after that, I kind of figured that whole starter thing would kind of subside. They may forget it even happened. I just figured once Pap was gone they wouldn't be taking me out of the 'pen as well. But it turns out they feel pretty strongly about me trying to be a starter, and I do, too. So, as of right now, that's how it stays."

Rated 4.3 out of 5 by 39 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by joe4879 nice, rustic coffee table at a low price I'm very happy with this purchase. I was somewhat concerned that the wood tops would look cheap, but I don't think they do at all. one thing is that even locked the wheels slide on my floors. but I think a rug will fix that. July 21, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Abby89 Holds up with kids I cannot tell you how much I love this coffee table. When I purchased it over two years ago I had a 6 month old and a 2.5 year old. My kids have literally TRASHED the thing and it still looks amazing. We have a tiny apt and they use it to jump onto the couch with, they use it to play super heros and sword fight on, they use it to do all their art projects, we use it to eat dinner on some nights. I'm telling you, the thing just won't die. It's very durable, the wood is extremely hard and everything just washes right off of it. If this were any other table it'd be in the trash by now but I expect it to hold of for many more years to come. We are expecting twins now too so I'm looking forward to it holding up like it did with my first two. Definitely recommend if you have a young family. I remember that was the one thing I was nervous about when purchasing it. Should I just get a cheap ikea table cause my kids ruin everything? Glad I spent the money. November 15, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by sr29 Great table My wife and I were initially hesitant about buying this coffee table and the end tables since the floor models we looked at were very wobbly. However, once we bought them and built them, these tables are actually very sturdy and not wobbly at all. The tables look great and give our living room a modern look. We're very happy with our purchase.. October 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by BusyRN Awesome!!!!! Love this table!!! Mix of wood and metal compliment my eclectic style.. Easy to assemble. Loved it so much, went back to get the end table...... April 18, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lydia01 Great coffee table for families. Primary reasons why I bought this coffee table: 1) appearance; 2) size; 3) price; 4) mobility; 5) durability; 6) quality. This table fits all of these criteria. Finding a coffee table that is not too big was an issue because we have a small living room and most coffee tables are massive, but this one is a perfect size for our living room without overwhelming it. Our decor is vintage/informal traditional/comfortable/eclectic and I wasn't sure about adding the industrial-style to mix, but it fits in with the decor really well, and actually complements it nicely. Durability is an issue because we have young children, and although this would not withstand a ton of rough play and banging (what furniture would?), I feel confident that it will withstand the amount of activity my children do around the living room; therefore, this coffee table will be a short-term use piece (about 5-10 years) until the children are older, when we'll buy something to better suit our needs then. I have a bit of an issue with durability in that it feels very slightly wobbly, but I have no doubt it is sufficiently durable. Price was an issue because I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a piece of furniture that I would worry a whole lot about the children scratching (which hasn't shown any scratches after two weeks of being gently played on). Mobility, which although not a normal criteria I would apply in my search for a coffee table, I found it appealing that it has wheels so that it can fairly easily wheeled to a different location sometimes (such as when we have a Christmas tree to make room for), and it is a definite plus all of the wheels can be locked. The quality of the wood is quite good and overall appearance of the coffee table for the price is also very good, and I am very pleased with our purchase. January 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by littlekob Great Coffee Table I bought this coffee table along with two Aiden end tables and am 100% pleased with these. They are solid and have the rustic, industrial look I was looking for. They are also less expensive than similar tables I researched at furniture stores and visitors to my home always comment on them and how much they like them. I love the fact that these are on wheels, so can be rolled around to run the sweeper under them. (NOTE: The polyurethane finish on the wood emits a bit of an odor when first taken out of the box, but the odor goes away after a week or so.) World Market shipped these super fast!!! December 18, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by ReBockz Satisfied I love this coffee table. I love that it is real wood and not the cheap stuff you find at so many other places. It wasn't too difficult to put together either. February 26, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by mkegirl12 Love the style I really like the wood & metal combination. It is sturdy & rolls easy. I would consider other pieces from this collection. January 27, 2013

Cataloging is the heart of the OCLC cooperative. Forty years after the introduction of online cataloging, librarians and OCLC continue to collaborate to provide a system for quality metadata creation and management. The system, which can be tailored to your local workflow, supports physical items in your catalog, as well as the growing licensed and digital content of your collection. It also supports the expert community of librarians, resource sharing and access to information for all.
Work together to build an international resource for the library community
Be part of an expert, global community that lives the library values of cooperation, resource sharing and public service! OCLC members harness the collective energy and innovation of library world to share collections, metadata, best practices and expertise. We are building and managing the collective collection—print, licensed and digital materials—to make libraries more visible on the Web and in their specific community of users. Pooling the efforts of the community creates scaled efficiencies, better decision making and a platform on which libraries can further innovate.
The WorldCat difference: connect to and leverage our shared catalog ››
Create new collections and share collections created by others ››
Streamline technical processing and enhance access to information
OCLC Cataloging services enable libraries to share metadata creation and maintenance to create workflow efficiencies and greater access to library collections. OCLC Cataloging services can be used together with other OCLC services, such as WorldCat Local, WorldCat.org and more, to make library collections discoverable on the Web. Our services touch every part of the cataloging workflow and when used together can transform your entire process. You can fit our solutions to your needs in order to best structure and streamline your workflow.
Cataloging options for your library: best-in-class tools for each step of the cataloging workflow ››
Use internationally accepted standards and follow recognized guidelines to build quality resources for information exchange and discovery
Established cataloging rules and technology protocols—including MARC, FRBR concepts, Dublin Core, ONIX, RDA, SRU, OAI and others—are supported. Online record validation ensures input of standard MARC tagging and codes. OCLC quality control efforts, which are backed by a team of cataloging experts and technology, detect and remove duplicate records to optimize searching effectiveness and improve cataloging productivity. And programs that coordinate improvements in authority and bibliographic records from within the community are hosted or co-led by OCLC staff and member libraries, including BIBCO, CONSER, NACO, SACO and VIAF. These programs promote collaboration among experts who work together to expand access to library collections and improve the end users' experience.

Well at 11:59 PM EST the doors will be shut. . So, when
I stumbled across this clutch, I

had to share it with all of you! Obviously, the color of the clutch,

purple, caught my eye first. Actually, since Valentine's is on a weekend this year, we're booking a hotel
and spa package, complete with a couples' massage, dinner, champagne and some rose petals on the bed. Well, allow me to introduce you to the Oryany Two-Face Canvas Hobo. The outside sports an easy to access flat pocket for documents or your cell phone. In that price range, it would be a fitting introduction into the brand's style for new or younger customers and a winking reference to their own branding. Looking
for a fun bag. Where would we be without Marks and Sparks. At first glance, the Farida messenger is a simple box-style shoulder bag.

It was one of those last warm nights of summer when you can see the first hint of red on the leaves, signaling that if you haven't taken your last swim yet, you will soon. Transplanted to Northern California 16 years earlier, I was spending three weeks back east, visiting old friends in my home state of New Hampshire, where my adult daughter, Audrey, still lives, on the farm where I used to live, too.
Twenty-two years had passed since I swam in the pond by our house there and read to my children on the bed I shared with their father. That chapter is closed now. But sometimes, when I pass through as I did that day, old memories catch me up short.
I remember some good times. But also I remember those dark nights as the marriage was coming undone at last and how—when everyone else was in bed—I'd move through the rooms of our small house, laying my body down alongside first one of my sleeping children and then another, in search of rest that I could not find.
Not much of a drinker in those days, and never a fan of the hard stuff, I took to setting my husband's Christmas bottle of Johnnie Walker Red on the kitchen counter and pouring myself a shot. Daughter of a beloved but heartbreaking alcoholic, long dead, I recognized that my father's example—"When life is hard, pour a drink"—was part of his legacy. The final winter of my marriage, the year I turned 35, that legacy, usually dormant, had surfaced with alarming regularity. And because I wanted my husband to recognize my despair, I'd leave the bottle on the counter to greet him in the morning. "See what you drove me to do?" it was meant to tell him.
The marriage ended. I put away my Johnnie Walker habit, though in the years after, I discovered a fondness for wine—how it tasted and what it did to me, softening the many harsh aspects of my life. Two decades later, I could not name a single night I'd been drunk, but a glass of Zinfandel at day's end had become a frequent, then nightly, event. Not just one glass either. Two. Three, if life seemed particularly stressful.
Now I was back in New Hampshire, on the last evening of my annual late-summer pilgrimage there. The farm is now owned by my ex-husband, who lives with his new family in the main house. My daughter rents the cabin behind it, where I used to write. For years after the divorce, just driving past the farm was hard for me. But I made peace with it, and my most recent visit had been a happy one, until the very last night.
Audrey and I were invited to the home of friends who live near the farm. Earlier that afternoon, she and I had plunged into the swimming hole we used to go to when she was small. The next morning I'd be turning in my rental car and flying back out west.
I was feeling fortunate that night, being with Audrey, visiting these friends, hearing the crickets just outside their screen porch. But I was also tired, feeling the tug of leaving my daughter soon and a little ragged from the memories these visits invariably dislodge. So the Chianti we drank with dinner felt especially welcome.
As the daughter of a man who got drunk every night—and got up every morning pretending nothing had happened—I know well the danger of looking to wine when I'm sorrowful or worried or tired. I've always been careful about how much I consume. But in moments of stress, the impulse to reach for a glass is always there.
Our friends are Italian American, and they had made eggplant parmigiana, and spaghetti in a homemade sauce. There was garlic bread and corn on the cob. I ate well and reached for seconds.
As for the wine, I can't say how much I drank, because every time my glass got a little low, our host topped it off. No tipsiness evident, I could tell my friends a story or absorb the details of the spaghetti-sauce recipe; I even rattled off a recipe of my own. Mostly the wine just intensified the warm glow of a wonderful evening.
We left the cottage sometime around 10 PM. Audrey's boyfriend drove us back to the cabin. During my visit, I'd been staying at the home of another friend, 20 minutes away, but Audrey now asked if I wanted to spend the night on her couch.
"I've still got some packing to do," I said, giving her one last hug. "So I'd better get going."
"It was a great night," my daughter said before she went inside.
For a moment I stood alone in the field behind our old house. All the lights were out, so I took a good look at the stars. Then I headed out in my rental car.
Four miles down the dirt road I spotted it: the flashing blue light in my rearview mirror.
This stretch of road was more than familiar to me. I'd driven it every day, taking my three children to school. And on one memorable winter night, a good 25 years earlier, my son Charlie had dropped a tiny golden sword from his Playmobil pirate ship out the car window at just this spot. Because I knew how much the sword meant to him, I had spent the better part of an hour trying to find it, circling the area with my high beams on. Classic adult-child-of-alcoholic behavior there: the compulsion to protect one's child from loss and grief, not simply because the pain would be hard for him but also because the pain would be too hard for his endlessly vigilant and caretaking mother.
I found the sword. Crossing the highway to retrieve it, I was nearly sideswiped by an 18-wheeler. But that night at least, I'd averted what would have felt—to me probably more than to my son—a heartbreak.
Now a different kind of trouble had me in its grip. I knew I'd get a ticket (turns out I was 25 miles per hour over the limit). But there was more: Taking my license, the officer asked, "How much have you had to drink tonight?" And the truth was, I didn't know.
"One glass of wine," I told him.
"I'm going to ask you to take a Breathalyzer test," he said.
"Do I have to?" I replied.
Legally, no, I wasn't obliged to breathe into the machine, the officer told me. But now he was asking me to step outside the car and perform a few simple tests.
I stood by the side of the road, in the light of the police car, with the occasional vehicle whizzing past, and walked a straight line, heel to toe. I stood on one leg, raising my other a few inches off the ground. For the final test, the officer moved his forefinger back and forth in front of my face and asked me to follow it with my eyes without turning my head.
When I was done, he shook his head. "I'm placing you under arrest," he said. "Since you've been cooperative up to this point, you can wear the handcuffs in front of you rather than behind."
At that moment, all kinds of thoughts and feelings went through my brain. Horror, for sure. Shame. Also fear. Regret. More shame.
A picture came to me then, of a long-ago night when—with my mother out of town and my sister at college—I had been left alone in the care of my father, who'd gone on a bender. It must have been 10 PM when I awoke to knocking on the door and the sight of a police officer.
"Do you know who the driver might be of the vehicle left in the middle of the street?" he asked. It was the family Oldsmobile. My father must have driven most of the way home before abandoning it. With the motor still running.
In today's world, he would have been charged with DUI. But this was 1966. The officer, learning that the Olds was ours and that my father was asleep upstairs, moved the car himself and left it in our driveway, where my father found it the next morning, most likely with no memory of what had happened.
"Tell your dad to be more careful" was all the officer said to me. I kept that shameful message to my 12-year-old self.
Now here I was, by the side of another dark road, with no likelihood of finding similar leniency. Now the officer was opening the car door for me, since my hands were cuffed. Now we were heading to the police station in the town where I'd raised my children, back when they and I were young.
The officer had arranged to have my car towed to a repair shop. The owner was my old friend Gene, and I knew the place well from the years when I drove cars that always needed one repair or another. I sat with my handcuffs in my lap in the backseat of the cruiser as we drove. There was a Red Sox game on the radio. In my chest, I could feel the pounding of my heart.
At the station, they sat me in a room and explained my options. If I refused the Breathalyzer, I was subject to having my license suspended for six months. If I passed the Breathalyzer, I'd be let off with only the speeding ticket. If I failed, I'd be charged with DUI and released on bail in the custody of whomever I might find to pick me up. This would be my daughter, no doubt asleep by now back at her cabin. It was close to midnight.
The officer filled me in on the laws concerning driving under the influence: While the legal definition of intoxication stood nationally at 0.08 percent, in New Hampshire the police possessed discretionary power to charge an individual with DUI for a blood-alcohol level of 0.04 and above.
Given my options, I agreed to do the Breathalyzer test—but first I had to sit on a bench for 20 minutes while an officer watched me. Evidently, people suspected of drunk driving sometimes surreptitiously pop a breath mint into their mouths before the test, invalidating the results. By watching me for 20 minutes beforehand, the police would detect any such insertion. "I have to keep my eyes on your mouth for 20 minutes," the officer said. If I even touched my mouth during the waiting period, we'd have to start all over again.
Other movements were permitted, if I performed them carefully. The officer demonstrated how I could scratch my nose, for example, without obstructing the sight lines to my mouth. This involved raising my arm over my head and dropping my hand over the top of my face rather than blocking my lips.
"Some people touch their face on purpose to buy more time," the officer said. "Try that twice and it's an automatic DUI."
Still unsure how much I'd had to drink, and considering all the ways my life would be altered if I lost my license, I had already come up with this very idea. This was how low I had stooped, I reflected, how desperate I felt at the prospect of a DUI. It wasn't just the inconvenience of losing my license for months or the expense of higher insurance rates. More important was the shame—an emotion I remembered well from childhood, when my greatest terror lay in the prospect of someone (my friends, my teacher, our neighbors) finding out that my father got drunk.
Time passed. I thought about the eggplant parmigiana at dinner, grateful I'd eaten second helpings. I imagined the police calling my daughter. Shame again, at the prospect of her hearing that her mother had been charged with drunk driving, as my father never had been, though he could have been, a hundred times over.
"My daughter is a sound sleeper," I told the officer. "She might not hear the phone."
"We can send an officer out to the house to get her," he said. A new scene to picture: Audrey waking to the sound of knocking at the door and going down to find a policeman standing there. I know what I'd think.
Twenty minutes passed; time to take the test. "Some people don't blow full force," the officer told me. "But the machine picks that up."
I took the tube in my mouth. Blew hard. Waited. Blew again. Returned to the bench.
A few minutes later, a printout of my score scrolled from the machine like a fax. The officer ripped it off and examined it. I said a prayer. Just let me be OK, and I'll never let this happen again.
He studied the paper. He disappeared into another room. Through the door I could hear the Red Sox game. A late inning now. They must have been somewhere on the West Coast.
An excruciating number of minutes passed. Finally the officer emerged. Maybe the Red Sox game was over. Maybe he just figured I'd suffered enough.
"You blew a .02," he said. "You're free to go."
Meaning an officer would drive me to the body shop to get my car. There'd be a bill for the towing, too, along with the $200 speeding ticket. But I knew I was lucky.
I made it back to my friend's house sometime around 1 AM. He'd waited up for me a while, then gone to bed. The next morning I told him the story, making it sound funny rather than terrifying.
At the airport I called Audrey to tell her what had happened. I didn't want my daughter to make the mistakes I'd made. I wanted to protect her. If I carry the genetic legacy of potential alcohol addiction, so does she.
It was close to midnight when I arrived home in California. At that moment, I fully took in what had happened the night before—how close I'd come to getting charged and how my life would have changed if I had been. Not just because I live on a mountain, where every trip to the grocery store or gym requires a car. But more so for the accompanying truth that 30 years after my father's death, I had allowed myself to become addicted to the same thing that killed him: I had to have a drink.
The fact that I had been driving under the legal limit that night did not reassure me. What did it matter that I wasn't legally drunk if the wine had sufficiently loosened my guard and dulled my judgment that I was driving 55 miles per hour in a zone marked 30? What did it matter that I am generally a poor night driver? All the more reason I shouldn't drink at all before I drive.
Hearing the story of that night, my daughter had been indignant at the police officer's behavior—the handcuffs, the humiliating instructions on how to scratch my nose, the long wait to hear my test results. But I couldn't feel offended. If he'd put on the handcuffs with the idea of shaking me up, he'd accomplished his mission.
Safe in my own kitchen now, feeling the full weight of what I'd done and what I'd been through, I felt a powerful urge to do the thing I always want to do when I'm tired, or lonely, or scared, or simply sad: I wanted to pour myself a drink.
I went to bed instead.

Satellite, Biosatellite 2
This is the recovered return capsule of Biosatellite 2, one of several National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) satellites designed to investigate the influence of space flight on living organisms. On 7 September 1967, Biosatellite 2 was launched with various specimens, including insects, frog eggs, microorganisms, and plants. The primary objective of the mission was to determine whether organisms were more or less sensitive to ionizing radiation in microgravity than on Earth. Because of tropical storms in the recovery area and communications problems with the satellite the mission was terminated after 45 hours. This capsule containing the specimens separated from the satellite, deployed a parachute after entering the atmosphere, and was then recovered by an aircraft. The artifact was donated by NASA.

top song obsessions of the year (2010)December 31st, 2010
"Nothing Like You" by Frightened Rabbit was my top song obsession, photo by ipickmynose
2010 has been the oddest of my life, full of contradictions: the most amazing and most boring times; the most lovelorn and most disinterested; the most outgoing and most antisocial. It'll take years to see what it all means and where it will lead, but I have to say it was pretty good. But these contradictions led to a vast and odd array of music getting caught in my head, twisting and turning around in there and begging to be heard again and again.
As I'm sure I've said before, I don't pick song obsessions. Well, I don't pick them consciously. Something in the song and in my brain mesh in an addictive way and an ear worm is born.
Without any further delay, here's the list of songs I was most obsessed with in 2010.
Frightened Rabbit – Nothing Like You (mp3) (buy)
Pair an immediately catchy song with some fantastic lyrics about turning over a new leaf in love—the song starts with "This is a song// And you're not in it"—and you have a winner. I've listened to it at least 142 times this year and I still love it.
Mumford & Sons – Little Lion Man (mp3) (buy)
This was a band I initially wrote off, but have come around to them since seeing them live a while ago. Pair that new-found love of the band with their newish album Sigh No More, which I think presents their music in a much better light than their previous EPs and I was obsessed with the entire album, listening to it probably a hundred plus times over the year. But the song that stuck out more than other was this one (and to a lesser extent "Roll Away Your Stone"). I'm not sure why; perhaps it's the catchy and f-bomb dropping chorus that seals the deal.
Kanye West – Power (mp3) (buy)
A simple riff with some straight-beat clapping seems like it might be the basis for some fairly harmless hip hop track, but is anything but that. This is unstoppable, incorrigible, unbreakable, and incalculably addictive. Not even some sub-par rhymes or annoying faux-singing can trip up what must be one of the best hip hop productions in recent memory.
Jonsi – Hengilas (mp3) (buy)
There have been a few times I felt like I was on crazy pills and this song proved to be an immediate antidote. The last time I wrote about this song, I compared it to some of Aaron Copland's finer work and I think that is still an apt comparison. Few have used open, slow-moving chords to create such beautiful music since that famed composer, but Jonsi has created a song here with beauty one can get lost in.
Carissa's Weird – Die (mp3) (buy)
For this one, I'll have to go back to what I said before: "It's difficult to describe what makes this song so obsession-worthy but it's a song that I've listened to dozens of times in the last few months… Maybe it's the layers of instruments and vocals. Maybe it's the hypnotic way the instruments loop that draws me in. Maybe it's the slow breakdown. Who knows why, but I know what: it's good."
The Rural Alberta Advantage – Barnesyard (mp3) (from Daytrotter session)
I'd had this Daytrotter session for a while and listened to it plenty of times, but for some reason this spring (October-November, in the Southern Hemisphere) it hit me anew and I couldn't get enough of this earnest and urgent song. (By the way, the studio version of this song will be released as "Barnes' Yard" on the RAA's forthcoming album Departed out on March 1.)
Guided by Voices – Game of Pricks (mp3) (buy)
Somehow I'd missed this song for years until I saw/ heard Owen Pallett's charming violin-based cover. That lead me to listen to the original and boy was I hooked. No wonder it's an absolutely classic indie rock tune. It's seemingly the archetypal song of perhaps the most archetypal indie rock band.
Florence and the Machine – Dog Days are Over (mp3) (buy)
I had no idea about this band when I started playing around the idea of a Stomp-Clap mix (which eventually Heather took off with and did really well), but a friend suggested this song and I'm glad she did. A magnificent voice backed with compelling and interesting orchestration. A winner from the first listen.
Paul Jacobsen – Six O'Clock News (mp3) (unreleased, band website)
What a heartbreaking stunner of a song…and it's only a demo! This cover of Kathleen Edwards perfectly matches the tone and emotion of the music to those of the lyrics. Also of special note are the high and lonesome harmonies which really add some emotional gravity to the singing.
Adele – Hometown Glory (mp3) (buy)
This is how you know that I didn't plan this list: because no idiot would purposefully have the same song on his list two years in a row. And, furthermore, if I was going to plan a song to repeat, it wouldn't be a pop song. But my head wrapped itself around this gorgeous song. My obsession can neatly be summed up by an anecdote: at some point during Natalie's and my epic roadtrip in South Africa, this song came on in a mix and she said "I was hoping this song would come on." And I replied "Me too."
Diana Ross and the Supremes – Reflections (mp3) (buy)
I was at Firemen's Arms, a historic and smokey bar in downtown Cape Town for my weekly trivia night. I'd grumbled for months about the horrible quality of the music they played. While in the bathroom, this song came on and, though I didn't remember what song it was I knew two things: 1) that it was the unmistakable voice of Diana Ross and 2) I had to hear this song again (and again). Later that night I found the track and started the second of many, many listens.
We Were Promised Jetpacks – It's Thunder and It's Lightening (mp3) (buy)
As I said previoiusly: "Deep inside of me somewhere there's still a bit of High School Adrian, still listening to Seam and Sebadoh's Bakesale, still a bit angry and still with plenty of angst. That part of me loves this song, from the first guitar notes to the Scottish brogued vocals to the build up and strong, huge guitars and fast strumming to the way the song winds down with an almost whimper. The secret is, the rest of me loves it too. "
Paul Simon – Graceland (mp3) (buy)
After hearing Tallest Man on Earth's cover I found myself listening to the original again for the first time in a while. And I soon found myself walking down the narrow, winding, hilly streets of Green Point, Cape Town crooning that amazing verse "Losing love is a window into your heart// Everybody sees you're blown apart" oblivious of everything around me.
The Tallest Man on Earth – King of Spain (mp3) (buy)
The Tallest Man on Earth release an album this and of course I was obsessed with it, mostly equally, but this song stuck out. It's insistent, driving and oddly uplifting.
Horse Feathers – Cascades (mp3) (buy)
The hallmarks of all good Horse Feathers songs—beautiful orchestration, plaintive and breathy vocals, a dynamic build—are stamped all over this song. I loved this song on the 7″ and again when it came out on Thistled Spring
Loney, Dear – Ignorant Boy, Beautiful Girl (mp3) (buy)
Two days after arriving back from South Africa I was in my friend's car and he asked me "Do you know Loney, Dear?" I did–I'd seen them open for Andrew Bird years ago and had heard a few of their songs. I wasn't exactly a fan, I said. "Well I gotta play you this one song. I think you'll like it." And I did. As much as I didn't want to (the beginning sounds a bit like college acapella), I really did.
And there it is.
If you're wondering how I came up with this list, it was at least in part influenced by how many times I listened to a song, how much I was obsessed with the song initially and how much I was obsessed with it over time.
