Rating: PG-13
Duration: 1hr 34min
Elle Woods has it all. She's the president of her sorority, a Hawaiian Tropic girl, Miss June in her campus calendar, and, above all, a natural blonde. She dates the cutest fraternity boy on campus and wants nothing more than to be Mrs. Warner Huntington III. But, there's just one thing stopping Warner from popping the question: Elle is too blonde. Growing up across the street from Aaron Spelling might mean something in LA, but nothing to Warner's East-Coast blue blood family. So, when Warner packs up for Harvard Law and reunites with an old sweetheart from prep school, Elle rallies all her resources and gets into Harvard, determined to win him back. But law school is a far cry from the comforts of her poolside and the mall. Elle must wage the battle of her life, for her guy, for herself and for all the blondes who suffer endless indignities everyday.

Tonight we spoke with Dolores about changes coming to the AP physics B test. It'll be split into AP Physics I and II while the C test won't change.
Next week we'll speak with Derek Muller of Veritasium fame. Join us!
Tonight we chatted with Randy Knight, author of a calc-based intro physics text and an algebra-based one. We discussed what it means to base your text in Physics Education Research, things to do with student misconceptions, expectations of HS students, and more. Oh, and we also played an awesome whiteboard game or two.
Don't forget next week when we'll talk with Delores Gende, a HS physics teacher very involved with the AP program.
Tonight we spoke with Ken Heller about context-rich problems, PER, breadth vs depth in HS physics, and more. We also brainstormed a little about a physics problems database.
This is a pdf of some of Ken Heller's thoughts about problem solving. Please join us tonight!
This morning (Saturday, 7/9/2011) there was a conversation about Standards-Based Grading with physics teachers at the #physicsmtg going on in Delaware right now. A few of us joined remotely as well.
And here's the transcript of the chat:
Joined on July 9, 2011 at 10:03 AM Me: talking about the need for a zero on the scale Me: scale for a problem… Becca Howell: I can hear that there is talking, but I cannot understand JennHaney: I'm having a hard time too Moderator: not loud enough or muddled? Becca Howell: muddled Moderator: I can make it out most of the time Becca Howell: okay Becca Howell: you sound great Moderator: yeah, probably Becca Howell: yep Becca Howell: <— feeling like a leech that caused a bunch of problems for you guys today! Moderator: no prob, take your time. Yo-gi-oh is on so my wild boys are tame for the moment Becca Howell: but thanks for including us! JennHaney: yeah, thanks so much! Becca Howell: my girl is watching Tom and Jerry Moderator: old school JennHaney: I'm sorry, ask again? JennHaney: I Me: how familiar are you with SBG? Brian Carpenter: Sorry that you all have to stare at me. Becca Howell: HAD to give ONE assessment last year in which each question was alligned to a state standard Moderator: I've used it for one class only (just this past semester) JennHaney: I've been following Frank and Sean Cornally and am working on implementing this coming year. Becca Howell: yes Becca Howell: and it was AP Physics and I had to use GPS Becca Howell: yes, Becca Howell: not really, scared to try to do it officially because of the mandatory grade reporting at school Becca Howell: yes JennHaney: we do too Becca Howell: eschool plus JennHaney: that would help me a lot to be able to sell this to my admin Becca Howell: however, the rumor is that Fulton Co. is going to SB grade reports Brian Carpenter: Good analogy, John. Becca Howell: @BC LOL Becca Howell: what do we do? Moderator: for those joining recently: this is the group of physics teachers meeting in Delaware talking about SBG this morning. If you want to talk, hit the raise hand button so they can hit mute (feedback sorry) and then hit the mic button on the bottom right Moderator: oops, bottom left Me: most of the people in the chat are here in the room. Me: but if you aren't please introduce yourself… Becca Howell: for a grade on a standard, do you give either 0 or 1 or is there a range? Becca Howell: for the score Moderator: I use a 4-pt scale based on an old system of Frank's Me: manfred—where are you from? manfred_eller: I am joining from Pennsylvania. Me: Marcie—welcome! where are you from and what do you teach? Me: Manfred—what do you teach? Marcie Shea: Richmond, VA – Honors and AP Physics Moderator: for me, 4 means "I'll brag about it" Moderator: why not separate out units or algebra as their own standard? manfred_eller: AP Physics and next year we will start Physics First – so also next year 9th grade physics. Me: http://alwaysformative.blogspot.com/ Brian Carpenter: @Andy, I actually did that this year. Becca Howell: can you summarize what was just said? Becca Howell: sorry JennHaney: Does an Algebra objective really belong in a physics course? Me: sure–we're discussing how to handle albebgra mistakes, and whether to make it its own objective. Me: Kelly was saying that she doesn't use a separate algebra standard. If you don't get albegra right on a problem, you don't get the standard (whatever it is) Becca Howell: what is spoken by the people to the left of the screen is hard to hear Me: she doesn't want student students thinking that "I don't get the math, but I really understand the physics" Moderator: I agree, Becca Brian Carpenter: This is JOsh hijacking Brian: I put a writing objective in, if that makes you feel better (or worse) about assessing algebra in physics. JennHaney: I agree with Matt Me: Keep going unitl you get to mastery. Moderator (john2): hold on andy Moderator (Andy Rundquist): no prob JennHaney: list the letters again for me please Moderator (Andy Rundquist): I think they mean A-F Becca Howell: In my experience as an AP Reader, most often algebra is not penalized Moderator (Andy Rundquist): thanks Becca Howell: algebra is very important, but setting up the problem or describing the method used is so much more important Becca Howell: i doubt I could "sell" an algebra standard to my admin Moderator (john2): becca—yes—setting up problem can be embedded in a standard—drawing diagrams, etc. Brian Carpenter: @becca Would you have problem with a calc standard for an advanced physics class? Moderator (Andy Rundquist): if you're on a small screen, Frank is adding to the whiteboard so move your video window if you can't see it Moderator (john2): I'm going to post a list of kellys standards Becca Howell: I like Frank's scale, reminds me of an AP score (if you haven't noticed I'm sort of a CB/AP junkie) Brian Carpenter: Key point to the algebra conversation – Kelly's A standards are conceptual and require no algebra. Becca Howell: in this sbg model, do you give multiple types of assessments? are they all "weighted" equally? Becca Howell: so an answer that is "reasonable" needs to be given? Moderator (Andy Rundquist): what if they set it up and say "it's n equations and n unknowns so the physics is done but I'm stuck on the algebra"? Moderator (john2): Kelly's revised honor's standards: http://t.co/kQpwGH2 Becca Howell: on an AP rubric, they'd mostlikely get full credit Brian Carpenter: @Becca Even if the algebra mistake occurred on part a and there are three more parts? Becca Howell: @BC yes, ap rubrics are beautiful Moderator (Andy Rundquist): warning: Yu-gi-oh is over and it's threatening rain so I might have to contribute less and yell at my boys more Brian Carpenter: @BC lol. I really need to attend a workshop. Becca Howell: YES! do you teach AP? Becca Howell: I see the same algebra problems…. all the time Brian Carpenter: AP C: Mechanics Becca Howell: @person speaking: I have number dyslexia – I feel for the kid Becca Howell: got it Moderator (Andy Rundquist): I was just going to say that Marcie Shea: @Frank – Looking at your grading system, do you do your standards cummulative through the year or each marking period is separate Becca Howell: @Frank, how did you sell this to your admin? Frank Noschese: My quarter grades mark progress to date Becca Howell: is Brian(?) in public or private? Moderator (john2): brian is private school Moderator (john2): Frank is public Becca Howell: lucky duck Moderator (john2): Rosalyn is public school Moderator (john2): But lots of public teachers use it—Shawn Cornally at Think Thank Thunk is huge advocate Moderator (john2): Dan Meyer, Jason Byuell, etc. Frank Noschese: To sell to admins, I showed them an ASCD article called 7 reasons for standards-based grading and A different way to grade science. Links to those docs are in my SBG bookmarks: http://bit.ly/SBGlinks Moderator (john2): Can post links if you want and don't know these people…. Becca Howell: we've had 3 different principals in three years – it is a mess – each has their own agenda, etc Brian Carpenter: Marzano's book: http://goo.gl/LMHe4 Becca Howell: was randomly kicked out Moderator (Andy Rundquist): becca, you missed it. They all stripped naked and ran around the table Becca Howell: aw crap! Moderator (Andy Rundquist): Frank, you can add a new white board now by hitting the bottom right button next to the white board (you're a moderator now) Marcie Shea: I tuned in because I am really interested in SBG, but the more I read about sbg and learn about it the more overwhelmed I feel with the paperwork, record-keeping, etc required. Did you find it to be a tough transition? Becca Howell: @MS I agree! Brian Carpenter: @Marcie ActiveGrade. http://activegrade.com/ Moderator (john2): That's Rosalyn—she teaches at a public school in philadelphia JennHaney: I like Sam Shah's requirements for emailing requests for reassessment Moderator (Andy Rundquist): samjshah has a great email application for reassessment Moderator (john2): @Jenn, and make that a google form and it's even better. JennHaney: agreed Moderator (Andy Rundquist): http://samjshah.com/2011/06/15/to-reassess-or-how-to-make-more-work-for-me/ JennHaney: That's my plan for next year Marcie Shea: What about the kid who shows mastery early in the unit and then doesn't do anything for the rest of the unit? How does that play into the grading scheme? Moderator (Andy Rundquist): yeah, Marcie, I have students who avoid reassessments. Need to figure out more ways to have "forced" reassessment Becca Howell: @ John, all the names and links you sent are all gone – can you email them or post them somewhere?) Harvey Johnson 1: We regularly assess (via quizzes, etc.) and if they show a lack of mastery later their most current level of mastery is most important from our perspective. Moderator (john2): sure—We'll pull the transcript when this is over…. Becca Howell: <— newbie Becca Howell: thanks Moderator (john2): and post it somewhere Moderator (Andy Rundquist): there's also going to be a recording link I'll post when we're done. It sucks that when you log in, you only see chats that come after you're in Moderator (Andy Rundquist): welcome Rhett Rhett: thanks Becca Howell: I'm still trying to grasp this (without reading anything before hand)… So, could you give a % grade for each standard? That way if they do well on one, but then stop working, their % would go down??? Moderator (john2): typical class mght have 40 standards, so if you choose to weight equally and average, then 2.5%? Moderator (john2): but most don't do that. Moderator (john2): Mark and Kelly classify standards 2 ways—lower level (must pass all to pass class), higher level (must pass all of those to be in range for A). Moderator (john2): Grades are conjuctive…looking for link Becca Howell: while I like Frank's grading scale, I'm certain if I tried to give grades like that I'd be burned at the stake in N.Fulton Moderator (john2): Becca, key is kids can come back and reassess and improve grade. Moderator (john2): so getting a 0, 1 or 2 isn't final. Brian Carpenter: Here's a copy of my conjunctive grading scale http://goo.gl/lVxFz (completely stolen from Jason Buell) Moderator (Frank Noschese): @Becca: It's important to make sure the kids who lack core goals to come in a ressasses ASAP. Becca Howell: got it Becca Howell: right Becca Howell: what is your typical class size? Becca Howell: while I'm not apposed to working hard for my students, but the amount of grading seems overwhelming. Moderator (Frank Noschese): I have a total load of about 85 students Brian Carpenter: I have about 50. Becca Howell: i had 146 this past year, similar for next year Brian Carpenter: Roz had 120. Marcie Shea: I'm in the same range Becca, I'm over 150 next year and it is a challenge to keep up with grading as is Becca Howell: oh sounds like CM1 Brian Carpenter: @Becca, @Marcie. That's so sad. Becca Howell: @marcie all physics? Marcie Shea: yup Becca Howell: me too, all AP all day (with many that don't belong in there) Marcie Shea: there were about 85 honors physics students and no ap program when i started 3 years ago…now there are 30+ in my AP class and over 120 in honors physics Becca Howell: what about homework? Moderator (john2): homework is for practice. Brian Carpenter: @Becca @Marcie One of the things about SBG is the ability of the teacher to tailor it to their environment. As you can tell, we all have different ways of doing it. Becca Howell: any of you use Webassign? Moderator (john2): homework isn't graded. Rhett: I use webassign – but it doesn't count for a grade Moderator (Frank Noschese): I use WA for practice. Moderator (john2): Becca—I use webassign occasionally, but I use it only for practice. Becca Howell: 35!! Becca Howell: I don't have enough lab equipment for all of them JennHaney: I've modeled with 36 students Becca Howell: Since my students have to pay for WA so if I have them pay for it, I MUST grade it… Brian Carpenter: @Becca Grade or provide feedback? Rhett: I agree that it sucks to make them pay – that is why I just strongly encourage it Rhett: I am surprised how many of my students use it Becca Howell: my school system has a county wide policy for "recovery" Moderator (john2): @becca—what is recovery? Becca Howell: They have to earn a grade from it if i'm going to have them pay Becca Howell: reassessment Moderator (Frank Noschese): @Becca – I see no difference between WA and giving kids the answers (not solutions) to textbook problems. Becca Howell: yeah, thanks to cramster, all the book questions are online Rhett: webassign all semester is cheaper than a tutor Moderator (Andy Rundquist): ah cramster, such a game changer Marcie Shea: @becca – have you looked into quest? it is much less expensive – my department covers it Moderator (Frank Noschese): @Becca – If you are only using WA for practice, you might consider dropping it and giving kids answers to textbook problems. Becca Howell: I'm leaning towards no grades for homework and just quiz and assess more often Moderator (Frank Noschese): @Becca – The Physics Classroom website also has practice problems with audio solutions Becca Howell: what was that? Moderator (Andy Rundquist): lon-capa Moderator (Andy Rundquist): http://www.lon-capa.org/ Becca Howell: cool Brian Carpenter: The Physics Classroom is awesome. Moderator (Frank Noschese): @Becca – The selling point for WA for me (back when I graded HW) was the randomization to minimize cheating. But I don't need that now. Harvey Johnson 1: @Becca after reading the homework myth, kelly decided to remove homework (almost) completely. students can now use this time to prepare for reassessment. I also did this and it worked well. Rhett: if it is graded – students will still find a way to cheat even with randomizations Becca Howell: @Frank – that was great, but all the kids used yahoo answers or cramster Becca Howell: I had kids with 100% WA grade and a 65% test average Brian Carpenter: @Becca I had a similar experience and it was one of the things that drove me to try SBG Moderator (Andy Rundquist): not surprised, Becca. motivating to learn is hard but SBG has really been eye-opening for me on that point Becca Howell: how do those two grades on that standard combine… or do they Moderator (Andy Rundquist): I just take the last one Becca Howell: how does that "go over" with parents etc Brian Carpenter: Most of us here use only the most recent score. Brian Carpenter: Other teachers will average all the scores for a goal. Brian Carpenter: I've seen weighted averages for more recent scores, power lwas, etc. Moderator (Frank Noschese): For me, anytime you show that you allow students to make-up for any prior mistakes and you want them to be successful, they support you. Moderator (Andy Rundquist): stole, not borrowed Marcie Shea: and if they do nothing or don't turn something in, do they drop to a 1? Brian Carpenter: If you are assessing their knowledge on that, yes. Marcie Shea: nice Moderator (Andy Rundquist): @marcie, that's what I was referring to earlier with "forced" reassessment Becca Howell: I like that idea Becca Howell: unfortunately, I'm very ignorant in the "modeling way" – apparently it hasn't made its way to our system, but differentiation has – any of you create diff. lessons? Moderator (john2): @becca—what do you mean by diff lessons? Moderator (john2): @becca—we're working on bringing modeling workshop to GA, maybe next year. Becca Howell: creating assessments taylored to each students learning style Harvey Johnson 1: @marcie, on most assessments student's typically do not do nothing. That can happen on a rare occassion, but hasn't been a problem for me once the homework was removed. Becca Howell: @John a modeling workshop in GA would be great Moderator (john2): becca—not really. You can do this when you create reassessments for students, but I don't. Diff learning is supported by SBG, since it allows studetns to learn material at diff rates. Becca Howell: on an assessment, do you write which standard is being tested? Becca Howell: or is it something you code separately? Moderator (Andy Rundquist): my expt with no homework and no tests (student videos only) was really interesting. a whole lot of procrastination and then tons of (re)assessments at the end. By "forced" I need to find a way to say, you have to submit a video by x date or something. Moderator (john2): @ becca you can do either. You do need to be a bit thoughtful in writing assessment to make sure that you are testing the standards, and not just picking cool problems. Moderator (Andy Rundquist): I'm an expert Rhett: if you end, then I will have to mop the floor. Becca Howell: I've had experience writing q's for the AP Physics exam, all those are coded to specific ap objectives Marcie Shea: thanks for letting us tune in Moderator (Andy Rundquist): http://101studiostreet.com/wordpress/ Marcie Shea: sounds like y'all are having great fun this week Moderator (Andy Rundquist): iowa Becca Howell: while I take no responsibility for the CRAPPY AP Exam from this year Moderator (Andy Rundquist): why does the Mississippi go south from MN? Iowa sucks Marcie Shea: Thanks! Moderator (Andy Rundquist): thanks! Becca Howell: thanks!!!! Rhett: ok – I mop JennHaney: Thanks so much!!
Tonight we were joined "live" by several physics teachers who decided to create their own workshop. John Burk, Fran Poodry, Brian Carpenter, Mark Hammond, and Kelly O'Shea were there and led the discussion on some needs of the physics community (question database, videos for Tracker, paradigm labs for modeling, modeling pr, etc.).
Please take some time to submit questions to ask of Ken Heller:
Ken is an expert in BOTH particle/neutrino physics AND how to teach problem solving. Here's a web site describing him:

Ah the ugly rumor mill is at it again, last year it was that Foxconn would be leaving the channel business as part of an agreement to buy Pegatron (Megatron's little sister). However, this turned out not to be the case.
I hope that the new rumor I am hearing is the same. According to the word on the "Net" VisionTek is heading for bankruptcy. If the rumors are true this would mean that another player in the graphics market would go down.
Back in 2002 the same rumor was floating around but was quickly denied by the company. We can only hope that we hear some good news very soon and that this is just another rumor.

Archie is quite the adventurer and since we still haven't managed to get stairgates at the top and bottom of all our stairs yet (4 storey house) he sometimes manages to get up 2 or 3 stairs while I am getting his sister ready for school or sorting the washing. He is very good at getting up but tries to crawl down headfirst! Someone said to try teach him to shuffle down on his bottom but he isn't big enough, when sat on a step his feet don't reach the step below. So any tips on how I encourage him to turn around and come down backwards would be much appreciated. Hoping to get more stairgates soon but at some point he will have to learn anyway.
Thanks x
Indi is the same & I would really like to know !
Hope someone comes along with some advice soon
Vic x
might be a pain but you may need to go downstairs that way yourself when he's watching so he can copy you. and you could practice together with you just behind him helping him down.
when we were teaching dd1 to come down on her bum we had to do it that way for a while cos she wanted to be like us!
Good thinking Naomi, sure his big sis will oblige and come downstairs backwards to help (well at least for a few days until she gets bored).
As soon as DS could crawl we taught him the saying feet first and showed him what it was by putting him into the position. We continued this until we only needed to say feet first and he put himself into position. I taught all the kids I mind this as well.

Cowboy Football Two-A-Days: #13 and #63
Aug. 19, 2012
Laramie, Wyo. -
Running Back
John Winterholler is regarded as one of the most outstanding all-around athletes in University of Wyoming history. Winterholler, a native of Lovell, Wyo., was an outstanding four-sport athlete, earning All-Conference in football as a tailback, basketball as a forward, and baseball as a centerfielder from 1936 through 1939. He also competed in track and field as a sprinter. Winterholler was Wyoming's 1937 leading scorer in basketball averaging 8.2 points per game. He was named to the Sports Illustrated Silver Anniversary All-America football team in 1964. He lettered four years for head football coach Willard Witte.
Jack Weil
One of the Cowboys only consensus All-America honorees, Jack Weil of Denver, Colo., was one of the great UW punters of all-time. Weil lettered four years for the Cowboys from 1980-83. He left the Cowboys No. 4 on the career punting average list averaging 42.6 yards per punt for his career (9,840 yards on 231 punts). During his career he averaged more than 40 yards per punt. He saved his best season for his senior season of 1983 when he led the country in punting average. During that season, he put up the third-best single-season punting average in UW history punting 52 times for 2,369 yards and an average of 45.6 per punt. Also during his senior season, Weil recorded the second-best punting game in school history against Air Force punting for 336 total yards on six punts for an average of 56 yards per punt. For his efforts during his senior season he became one of Wyoming football's only consensus All-America honorees, while also earning All-Western Athletic Conference honors. Weil went on to play in the NFL for the Denver Broncos and Washington Redskins.

Reviews for Jumbo Brownie Cookies
"I used Ghiardelli Chocolate and the espresso powder. I might leave the powder out next time. Delicious and fudgy and my husband and son loved them. I will definitely make again. I used a 2 TBSP scoop and got about 24 cookies."
"I love this recipe, super easy but found it hard to drop by the 1/4 cup as I kept trying to do too many on a cookie sheet. So I put in the fridge for 15 to 20 minutes to firm up batter. Then I rolled and baked to make homemade oreo cookies. Can someone say 'hello cookie monster'."
"1 cookie has 350 calories and 48 g carbs and 65 mg of sodium - I used the regular chocolate chips - and unsalted butter an no other salt... wasn't too bad - but will not b making these again! yuck..."
"Very good"
"3 Stars because this is a question (wish there was another way) so don't scold me.Anyone tried making this as a bar cookie. I want to cut out with heart shaped cutter."

Content ID for Public Sector: White Paper
Audio and video content identification solutions for applications in defense, security and law enforcement organizationsRead Now
Ubiquitous access to high-speed Internet services has created opportunity for service providers and content owners, but also new challenges to protect sensitive multimedia content from unauthorized disclosure, especially as the industry pushes onto the open, unmanaged Internet
Defense, intelligence, security and law enforcement agencies acquire, exploit and disseminate multimedia content which is sensitive for confidentiality or privacy reasons. Such content needs to be protected from unauthorized disclosure, both when accessed internally as well as upon dissemination to third party agencies.
Tackle the risks of unauthorized disclosures by taking measures to deter and prevent it. In doing so, curb the immeasurable implications resulting from the release of interview recordings, surveillance video, multimedia evidences or other sensitive content.
NexGuard provides a powerful deterrent against unauthorized disclosure. With the use of digital watermarks, NexGuard can trace illicitly released materials to the original source, whether it is leaked through file transfer or online streaming.
These media protection solutions supplement encryption and content access control schemes, allowing cyber security teams to secure multimedia content beyond decryption.
Ultimately, the watermark detection from an illicit copy facilitates and accelerates the incident investigation.
Government related organizations create content for television channels and news agencies which needs to be monitored to understand how this video material is being used. Which broadcasters? Which sequences? How often? When?
Public Relations teams and government news organizations need accurate information to make rapid editorial and investment decisions based on real and comprehensive broadcast intelligence.
Teletrax TV analytics service provides government clients with instant feedback regarding their television news campaigns on a global scale, enabling full asset management and inventory control of news content. Teletrax gives an instant global dashboard for your news campaign and public service announcements.
This media intelligence service offers real-time online reports to public relations and communication teams.
Getting the attention of trainees has become difficult with the multitude of screens that are part of our daily lives. To make your educational or training programs effective, you must find innovative ways to grab the attention of people with supplementary information made available on their own device.
Teletrax automated content recognition solutions allow education teams to design rich interactive applications. Companion apps for tablets can verify that a given training session is actually attended, and allow for the testing of material after each session to perform skills assessment. Several people can watch the primary video in the same room, while each is tested individually on a tablet during or following the presentation.

Zabaan Sambhalke
The superhit comedy tv show of the good old Tv Serial in 1993 and literally means 'Mind Your Language'. Mohan Bharti (Pankaj Kapur) played the lovable and cool hindi teacher and Miss Dixit (Shubha Khote) played the strict yet lenient Principal of 'National Institute Of Languages' (N.I.L.), where students from various parts of India and international gathered to learn Hindi... and the fun that followed was unforgettable. The series revolved around funny incidents between the Hindi teacher and the students while trying to teach, learn and speak the language and its proper pronunciations. A true tribute toNational Integration. Needless to say it has a recall value which is still very fresh with audiences.

The Matinecock Indians sold Flushing to the Dutch Colonists in the 1620s at the rate of one ax per 50 acres. The Dutch named it "Vlissingen," after a port in Holland. It meant "flowing water."
In 1657, the document called the Flushing Remonstrance, was signed by the Dutch colonists giving the Quakers and others the right to worship as they chose. The principles stipulated in the Remonstrance foresaw the freedom of religion in the U.S. Constitution. The English began ruling in 1664 and changed the name to Flushing.
Because of the abundance of trees in Flushing, the first commercial nurseries in America were organized here in the 1700s. A town hall was built in 1864 and it has been used as an opera house, police station, jail, and a dinner theater.
There have been two World's Fairs in Flushing, one in 1939 and the other in 1964.
In the early to mid-1900s Irish, Germans and Italians resided in Flushing; but after 1965, Greeks, Chinese, Korean, and Hispanic immigrants started moving in. The formerly tree-lined pastoral town has become an important international residential and commercial center.
At first the new East Flushing Branch of the Queens Borough Public Library was set to open on November 1, 1975; but due to budget cuts it was unachievable to staff the additional branch. In 1977 a recent influx of federally financed CETA employees made it attainable for the East Flushing Branch to open for service on Monday, September 19, 1977 at 1:00pm. Previously this community had no library service, except for weekly visits by a bookmobile.

Morning sunshine!
Friday, February 22, 2013
I was out like a light last night, and didn't wake up once! Only problem is I didn't sleep as long as I would have liked; I ended up going to bed at 2:30 and only slept 6 hours, but I'm determined to be in bed before midnight tonight! I had one dream that was very strange, that I was kind of in Skyrim but to escape the tower I had to convince people I was a lesbian :-s very odd! Not a nightmare or anything, just strange.
Woke up feeling cheerful and pretty refreshed (which is interesting since it's glum and gloomy outside; usually this has the opposite effect on me!) and got up, brushed my teeth (a habit I'm getting into is whenever I'm in the bathroom, I brush without toothpaste...this doesn't take as much time or leave the taste in my mouth that I hate, but seems to be having a really good effect) and washed my face, and had a good laugh at my hair; it's getting longer, but for some reason seems to have just sort of gone straight out during the night; I look a bit like the snake lady from Rammsteins "Engel" video!
I'm thinking more about health and my appearance, not just about weight-loss but overall health. For instance, I've always wanted better looking arms and legs. They've always been all pale and spotty and covered in blemishes, so I've determined that at least once or twice a week I'm going to try and do a moisturize/exfoliate routine with them. Nothing complicated, just using an exfoliating glove to rub in some aqueous cream. Did it last night and if nothing else my legs certainly feel better!
So, the thing I'm thankful for today is the good sense to know how to budget shop! I'd be in deep, deep trouble without that! Something I love about myself is my awesome hair; I had a real laugh at it!
My household tasks for today are to work out what I want to make in the coming week and buy the stuff for it. I'm pretty lucky in that all I really need to get is mostly bread and condiments, and some more fruit and milk; I have cheese, pasta, rice, couscous, and a fair number of veggies already. I'd like to get some food bags and portion pots, but I don't know if I can do that today and may have to wait a few weeks until I have some more money. The second thing I plan to do today is hang up the load of laundry in the washing machine, strip my bed, and put a new load on. The third is to put away all the laundry I have out in my bedroom and do a general pick-up of the house. Since I'm gonna be working most of the day, I'm not gonna do too much around the house today. But if I can do these three things, I'll be happy; anything extra is great, but not absolutely necessary :-D
Anyways, off I go to face the day. TTFN everyone!

My hair is naturally very wavy, and short. As it's growing out (it's now jaw length) it gets...funny, lol. Not long enough to weigh itself down, not short enough to tame....

Lmao, great post! I too have great hair in the AM. It cracks me and my friends up regularly. My husband calls me Mufasa and does the little hyena shake when I wake up. For the longest time I hated it. I have an afro that could compete with Diana Ross in the morning. I have grown to love it. . . . It is my freak flag and I like to let it fly lol

Celebrity Apprentice fans might be looking at an eclectic cast of characters on the next season of the popular reality show. While some fans might have thought there would be few stars with big names, it appears the celebrities have been lining up to play. According to Gossip Cop on Sunday a few of the big stars are include in the Celebrity Apprentice spoilers. Stars named so far include Johnny Weir, Ian Ziering and Martina Navratilova.
Another reality star who is signing up is Kate Gosselin. The star who seems to always be looking for work on television is hoping to be part of the series (and if rumors are to be believed, has already signed up.) However, it's one of those weird scenarios that makes fans wonder if the star is on the show competing for a charity then who might be taking care of her kids? The episodes are taped close together, but even so the star would be away for a while to film.
A wildcard that everyone is hoping to see is David Hasselhoff. The Baywatch star would be a perfect fit on Celebrity Apprentice, but this star hasn't committed yet. Apparently he is considering the offer and hasn't made a final decision.
Overall the upcoming season of Celebrity Apprentice sounds fun and enticing. Of course there will be more stars added to the show and we can hardly wait to see who that might be.

Cool and refreshing on a hot summer's day. It's just-the-right sweet and silky smooth. Sounds like nothing other than America's most delectable temptation, ice cream. Well, you have an excuse to put away those walking/running shoes and head for the freezer for a serving of your favorite flavor of ice cream. What gives? July is National Ice Cream Month! This observed "holiday" was put into place by Ronald Reagan in 1994 and endorsed by the International Ice Cream Association.
So what ice cream flavor stirs your palate? Something traditional, like Rocky Road or Mint Chocolate Chip? Or, does an exotic flavor, like mango ice cream, roar up your appetite? Do you prefer your ice cream treat in a waffle cone or just right out of the tub? Do you need a stream of caramel/fudge sauce dripping all over it? Or, do you prefer your frozen concoction pure and simple?
Whichever way you like your ice cream, the U.S. consumes over a billion gallons of both soft- and hard-serve ice cream. Have a scoop, because consuming ice cream helps keep thousands of citizens in their jobs in the U.S. ice cream industry.
Chicagoland bursts with ice-cream shops, both national chains and independent mom-and-pop shops. Here is one in the Chicago suburbs and owned and independently run:

Swarathma bassist Jishnu Dasgupta writes about life on the road, and how the pulse of a city is best felt in its street food.
Jishnu Dasgupta, bassist of Bangalore folk rock act Swarathma, writes about life on the road.
The only way to really feel the pulse of a city you travel to is give into the local cuisine, preferably cooked fresh off the street. All too often you play safe – sticking to the tried and tested sandwich or butter chicken, to avoid having to stare at something you cannot stomach, as it were. But Swarathma is a band big on food; our travels constantly whet our appetite for the untried and untested food that a new place offers. It's not always easy though; most times our tour schedules permit us to see only the hotel, the airport and the gig venue. Everything else is a crazy blur. But on the recently concluded Wah ji Wah Tour, we got lucky in Indore. The Indore leg of the tour was scheduled in such a way that we had two nights in the city. I'd spent about a year here before joining the band and the friends I made were thrilled with the idea of showing the band the real Indore.
Indore is a city that is known for its street food, and so to Sarafa we went! It is a jewelry market by day, rife with pot-bellied seths counting cash and twirling moustaches, but by night it completely transforms into a street food wonderland. Families come out, armed with mats and durries, spread them over the steps of the shuttered jewelry stores and settle down to enjoy some pure awesomeness.
Our guides for the evening were Divi and Chirayu, who insisted we start the evening with some things we'd never had before - garadu is a purple yam that is fried and dusted with spices, and bhutte ka kees, a corn-based snack, served piping hot with a garnishing of coriander and grated coconut. Then we lost ourselves in the by-lanes, sampling one amazing dish after the other. The rhythm section tripped on the malpuva, a cream-based dessert, soaked in sugar syrup. You eat it and the sonatas and concertos start playing in your head almost instantly. The rest sampled the sabudana khichdi, a savoury snack from Sago with peanuts and potatoes, with a generous helping of spices that open up your nasal passages like nothing else. It didn't end there, we devoured the delicious rabdi (sweetened cream), samosa-kachodis (savoury snacks from flour with potato gram-based filling), jabelis the size of cymbals, dahi bhallas (don't even know how to begin to describe this) and my personal favourite – the chhole tikia. The simplicity of this timeless snack is what drew me to it; boiled and spiced chickpea poured over a potato-based patty fried in pure ghee, with a generous dash of a tangy chutney.
Pavan spoke of a 'food high' he experienced after this gastronomic multiple orgasm, "I'm talking nonsense, macha."
Burp, is all I said in response.

'Tis the season when the LCBO sells two bottles of Moselland Riesling wine in the shape of cats for Christmas. Gord saw them today, bought them and surprised me with them (thanks, Gord!).
This year they are metallic goldish and turquoise (2011 vintage) ...
They didn't sell any last year.
I've been collecting them for over ten years and now have 26 (I'm missing two of the first ones ... clear pink and turquoise).
They are all unopened.

When I submit Glide jobs from Maestro, they always run at very low priority. Assuming that I don't want to nice my other processes down, how do I make it so that Glide runs with with a higher nice value automatically?
Maestro automatically reduces the priority of jobs run locally, so that they do not slow down a system that is used interactively. The priority is controlled by the SCHRODINGER_NICE environment variable. The SCHRODINGER_NICE setting is on/off (-19 or 0), so it cannot be set to a custom 'nice' level for a particular job or class of jobs.
Setting this variable to any value lowers the priority of all jobs and setting it to 'local' lowers the priority of jobs submitted on the local host. Setting it to a null string cancels the lowering of the priority. If you set this variable before you start Maestro, Maestro uses the value that you set rather than the default.
You can override your SCHRODINGER_NICE environment setting for individual command-line jobs with the -NICE or -NONICE option.

College Hockey:Boyle Leads BC Past UML And Into Home Ice
CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. — On the strength of a hat trick from forward Brian Boyle and a school-record sixth shutout on the season by netminder Cory Schneider, Boston College reversed recent fortunes with a 6-0 win over visiting Massachusetts-Lowell.
Boyle has had a remarkable season against the River Hawks, as he scored all four BC goals in a 4-3 overtime win in Lowell in January. With Thursday's hat trick, the 6-foot, 7-inch junior now has nine career goals in seven games against UML.
"I've had a good couple of games against them," said Boyle. "It's been easy for me to get open. My linemates were taking pucks off the defensemen's sticks and were able to get them to me. I was just in the right place at the right time."
The win snapped a three-game losing streak for the Eagles, who were swept by Maine last weekend after a loss to rival Boston University in the Beanpot title game. The skid saw much inconsistent play from BC, the youngest team in the nation with seven freshmen dressed. But Lowell coach Blaise MacDonald said he saw a team on a mission.
"That was a team that was trying to reestablish itself as a top team in the league and in the country," said MacDonald. "And they showed it tonight."
"It was important for us to play well," echoed Jerry York, BC coach. "We've been on a straight line for most of the year, but we've been on a zig-zag lately. When that happens, you need to work through it.
The difference in the game came in the number of shots allowed in the slot. While UML was able to generate plenty of shots, 26 for the game, most of them were kept to the outside of the offensive zone, where goalie Schneider was able to see and stop them all. That was a target area that the team concentrated on in practices all week.
"It was night and day with the defense clearing out guys in front," said Schneider, comparing the team's performance to last weekend's games.
The offense for Boston College, on the other hand, came from repeated chances where an Eagle forward was able to receive a pass while open in front of the net. The first three BC tallies were all scored that way, and at that point the game was all but decided.
"They got a lot of goals from in front of our cage that squirted in," said MacDonald. "That didn't happen for us."
Boyle wasted no time in scoring his fifth goal of the season against the River Hawks when he redirected a pass from freshman Brock Bradford from across the goalmouth past a sliding Peter Vetri just 1:09 into the first period. The goal was scored on the first shot of the game.
"The first goal was very significant," said York. "When you have a goal scoring drought, getting a quick goal on a crash bang play really set the tone for the game."
The best scoring chance for Lowell came later in the first period, as Brad King rocketed a shot past Schneider that clanged off the post. Even that shot, however, came from the point.
The second period saw the difference-making goal of the game. After Benn Ferriero scored from right in front of the goal on a tap-in of a Joe Rooney pass to make the score 2-0, Boston College's Stephen Gionta took a penalty for holding. After 30 seconds had transpired with little offense from Lowell, King went to the penalty box for tripping, and in addition, UML was called for too many men on the ice.
Once the initial BC penalty expired, that created a 5 on 3 advantage for the Eagles, and it didn't take long for Boyle to cash in. The power play unit was moving the puck well with the two-man advantage, and freshman defenseman Brett Motherwell found an open Boyle in front of the net. Boyle skated across the goal mouth to draw Vetri out of position and lifted the puck for the goal.
"The turning point in the game was when the score was 2-0," said MacDonald. "We took a couple of penalties, and then we made a mistake on the change that BC managed to capitalize on. To go from 2-0 to 3-0 was a big difference."
Things went from bad to worse for Lowell in the third period, as BC sophomore Matt Green scored on a drive to the net, followed by a Dan Bertram tally. Boyle then completed his hat trick 13 seconds after the Bertram goal, when Brock Bradford won a faceoff and found Boyle driving to the net.
The sixth goal saw Vetri chased form the net for Vinny Monaco, who stopped all four shots he saw in the last half of the third period.
The shutout was the sixth of the season for Schneider, which marked a new school record for shutouts in a single season at BC.
"I've never been a shutout goalie through my career — I've always let in a few," said Schneider. "[The record] is a testament to the way the defense has been playing in front of me."
The two teams travel to Lowell for a Saturday night rematch.
Boston College finds itself in an unexpected race for the league crown. A month ago, the Eagles had a large lead in the conference standings, but second place BU had managed to close the gap to just two points before Thursday's game. With this win, BC clinched a home-ice spot in the Hockey East playoffs.
Massachusetts-Lowell, on the other hand, is fighting to make the playoffs at all. The River Hawks have a six point lead over the nearest team, Northeastern, but could still be eliminated from post-season play.

Hey, remember Phillip Phillips? Remarkably, it was only this year that P-Squared triumphed in Season 11 of American Idol, a win largely attributable to a coronation song, "Home," that actually didn't suck—in fact, it was possibly the first original song in Idol history that seemed specifically written for an artist's style, and not just some factory-produced lowest-common denominator ballad that every contestant would sound equally uninspired performing. Unsurprisingly, it gave Phillips the edge over Sanchez in the competition, and had the best first-week sales of any Idol coronation song.
Well, now Phillips and "Home" are back. This will be no surprise to you if you've been watching Gymnastics coverage at the 2012 Summer Olympics, for which "Home" has been the regular soundtrack, inspiring any number of PP-soundtracked Olympic montage videos in its wake. The result has been a sales bump for "Home" that might push its numbers even past its first post-Idol week of availability. The song is currently #1 on iTunes, and Billboard projects it to sell around 200,000 copies this week, probably about enough to get it to the top 20 on the charts proper. (Meanwhile, Sanchez' "Change Nothing" is nowhere to be found. Sorry, Jess.)
Works for us—the song was actually pretty good, and deserved to be a hit outside of the show. Now hopefully they'll use Schoolboy Q's "There He Go" for the badminton coverage or something.

Words cannot explain
Darkest thoughts within the mind
Centuries of hatred now subside
Commencing the birth of new life
Rise from the wreckage of the past
Words cannot explain
The feeling agony within
Anguish summoned perception begins
All secrets now revealed you cannot win
Searching in hope of a new age
All feelings put aside
Numbed by the vision
Nothing left alive
Facing devastation
Awakened in remorse
To rebuild from destruction
Recreate life's evolution
No chance for redemption
All life now ceased
Pleading for forgiveness
There shall be no peace

Interrupted by Snatchers and a Visit to Malfoy Manor
As [Bellatrix] stands holding [Hermione], the chandelier over her head crashes onto her - [Dobby]'s work - and in the commotion that follows, [Harry], [Ron], Hermione, and [Griphook] manage to grab [Gryffindor's sword] and [Apparate] to [Shell Cottage], and to safety.
Farewells and Plans at Shell Cottage
Landing by the sea, [Harry] breathes a sigh of relief, but when he turns to [Dobby] realizes that he has been hit by [Bellatrix]'s knife. He yells for help, but before anything can be done, Dobby is gone.
In the garden of [Shell Cottage], [Harry] kneels over [Dobby]'s body as [Bill], [Fleur], [Dean], and [Luna] gather around him. Finally, he decides to bury the [house-elf] himself, and Bill provides him with a spade to do it.
As the night wears on, [Harry] digs [Dobby]'s grave, thinking to himself about [Horcruxes] and [Hallows], [Voldemort] and [Wormtail], [Grindelwald] and [Dumbledore]. And as he digs, he discovers he can now shut Voldemort out of his mind, and that he knows what it is he now has to do.
[Ron] and [Dean] come out to [Harry] as dawn breaks, and they are soon joined by the others in burying [Dobby], with [Luna] saying good-bye for them all. As the others depart, Harry remains behind and finds a gravestone, which he marks: "HERE LIES DOBBY, A FREE ELF."
[Harry] finds [Bill] talking to the others in the living room, where he learns that the [Weasleys] have all been moved to safety and insists that he talk to [Griphook] and [Mr. Ollivander] right away.
[Harry] stands washing his hands, thinking about where [Dobby] came from, about how [Dumbledore] had forseen what would happen to [Ron], and to [Wormtail], and to Harry.
Back in the sitting room, [Harry] insists on talking to [Ollivander] and [Griphook] immediately, with [Ron] and [Hermione] joining him. After a moment of decision, he has [Bill] lead them to Griphook first.
[Harry] finds [Griphook] in bed, healing, surprised and impressed at how Harry buried [Dobby]. He then asks him for help in breaking into the [Lestranges] vault at [Gringotts], and - despite some rudeness from [Ron] - Griphook agrees to consider the request.
Outside [Griphook]'s room, [Harry] tells [Ron] and [Hermione] of his suspicion that one of [Voldemort]'s [Horcruxes] is hidden inside the [Lestranges]' vault at [Gringotts]. Then, together, they head off to talk with [Ollivander] next.

One of the other items I bought along with the bonbons was this Aztec Chocolate Strawberry bar. I didn't quite understand what made this bar "Aztec", but the idea of strawberries in high quality bittersweet chocolate sold me right away. I did my best to pay little attention to the $8 price tag and threw it in with the rest of my purchases.
The bar is a pretty 100g bar. It comes in a square, as opposed to the traditional rectangular shape. It has these fun little peg holes in it, which reminds me of an old fashioned switchboard or a game of light brights. The packaging is nice too, ornate with a simple yet elegant color scheme, and the bar comes wrapped tightly in clear plastic. The chocolate is very dark and the back side is bumpy from bits of strawberries.
The chocolate has a medium hard snap, as it's 60% cocoa. It smells very chocolatey with deep notes of caramel,coffee, a slight nuttiness and a good creamy note from the milk. I smell no strawberries.
The flavor is very creamy, which surprised me as I'm used to bittersweet chocolate to being a little on the drier side. The chocolate is rich and "dark" with good notes of cocoa, coffee, and a light nuttiness to it. The chocolate feels very light and airy, almost crumbly when you bite into it, but it melts smoothly on the tongue.
And the strawberries? They're little freeze dried chunks, that are evenly distributed throughout the bar. They give a "rice crispy" sort of texture and a blast of fresh flavor that blends with the chocolate for a very sweet fruity finish. The combination works nicely together and it's very tasty.
I really liked this bar and I polished it off pretty quickly. I'd buy it again, but not regularly because of the price.

Making a live album at Boston's Scullers Jazz Club made sense for jazz saxophonist Grace Kelly. After all, she practically lived there. Her family lived for jazz and were frequent guests of the jazz club. She'd fall asleep in her father's arms, as young as six. By age 13, she performed on its stage. At 14, she hosted her own CD release party.
Kelly's been a huge draw at the Boston club since forever. Audiences love her. She loves them. Besides packing 'em in as a headliner, she also got to sit in with legends such as David Sanborn, Steve Tyrell, and Ann Hampton Callaway.
"It was the perfect place to record a CD," Kelly said. "I knew if I was going to do a live CD I wanted to have a really great audience. Having grown up in Boston and developed a fan base there since I was 12, it literally sounds like a yelling, hooting stadium when we come on stage at Scullers. People are just so enthusiastic, and I feel with this audience I can do whatever I want."
On February 5, 2013, Kelly released Live At Scullers — full of new material and introducing her as a vocalist and songwriter. The live album gave the musician a chance to meld her love of song lyrics, which she's always playing instrumentally as a jazz saxophonist, with her interest in Top 40 radio hits. "As a young person," she explained, "I love the tradition but I also I listen to the radio. So I've been trying to figure out how to meld some of this contemporary stuff with jazz in a different way. I'm like a mad scientist in my laboratory experimenting."
This live album is Kelly's experiment — gone awry.
It's clear from the first track, "Please Don't Box Me In," that Kelly is a better instrumentalist than singer. She wrote the song, clearly about herself and her need to find who she is and what she can do: " Please don't box me in | Let my heart be free | Let me find my voice…" In this album, she's still finding her voice.
When Grace Kelly drops her sax to experiment vocally, it's embarrassing to hear. Her voice goes all over the place, with an off-putting, strident wail that doesn't quite come back into the realm of pleasant or even a workable tension.
Even in the confluence of the horn solos, it seems as if Kelly and trumpeter Jason Palmer are at cross purposes. Their joint duet on horns clash jarringly, without any sense of time, musicality, or layers. It's as if they're horning in on each other's solos, not working together.
"Eggshells' is another Grace Kelly original, which fares a little better in the addition of what sounds like the ukulele (Pete McCann). McCann lifts the musically muttering piece in the tropical rise of the chorus, completely reaching for the blue skies of a beachside party somewhere on Hawaii's North Shore. Kelly picks up on Hawaiian and country in that chorus, even when her voice can't sustain the impossible highs she's forcing it to.
The breezy "Night Time Star" plays much better, less vocal histrionics, more guitar-flecked movement along the lines of Jobim. But then she has to start in again with her vocal gymnastics, leaving a limp, forced, and juvenile feel with her burst of hip scat-rap: "I'm too too high to touch the ground | And no one can bring me down | You are my world, you are my smile…" The lyrics themselves aren't much to speak of; just generic, schoolgirl platitudes. The resulting solos seem also thrown in there, just to busy up the nighttime landscape with some forced flair.
Much of the live album feels cliché, from the accompanying verbiage about "reading each other's minds," communicating "on stage musically," and feeding off the audience, to the giddiness when Jason Palmer drops the intro to the TV sitcom Sanford And Son in a solo from "Searching For Peace," to the jostling for position in the intermediate solo interplays.
The one bright spot arrives on the fourth track, "Autumn Song," all instrumental not surprisingly. After the horns bump into one another instead of riding side by side in the intro, the ride gets smoother. Guitarist Pete McCann leads the way home through graceful strides and fluent rolls reminiscent of a bull-charging flamenco dance. It's five minutes and 51 seconds of loveliness and very little excess.
The jury's out on Grace Kelly, the jazz vocalist. But her future's assured as a rising saxophonist.
She recently completed a successful Kickstarter campaign to make her next album, Working For The Dreamers.

Interview: Walt Cunningham February 13, 2012Posted by Lofty Ambitions in Space Exploration, Video Interviews.
Tags: Apollo, Mars
Lofty Ambitions had fun talking with Walt Cunningham in 2010, in part because he doesn't hold back his opinion, whether the topic is going to Mars or global warming. It's easy to disagree with his ideas, but it's not easy to stop listening.
In October 1968, Cunningham flew on Apollo 7, a mission we wrote about because it was the first time the now-famous space pen went to space. We sent the link (HERE) to Walt Cunningham, and he responded that we got the story right.
Born in Iowa in 1932, Walt Cunningham is a Midwesterner-turned-Californian like us. His master's degree is in physics, but his B.A. is in literature, and he's certainly not the only astronaut who read widely for a broad understanding of the world. He worked as a scientist at the Rand Corporation before joining NASA and was part of the Skylab program after his Apollo stint. He retired from NASA in 1971, but he's kept busy by writing and investing. And saying exactly what he wants to say.

How do I customize my Course list?
Canvas recently introduced a new page design called the New Canvas User Interface (UI). This lesson may include two images for specific steps to show the difference between the two designs. Unless otherwise indicated, the functionality and location of the components remain the same. The view available to you is determined by your institution.
When you are enrolled in more than one Canvas course, you can customize the active courses you want to show in your Course list. Courses you want to show in the Courses drop-down menu are called favorite courses. You can favorite any published course that appears in the My Courses section on the course list page. Course favorites also display in the Dashboard.
When no courses are favorited, the courses list automatically displays up to 12 courses alphabetically in the drop-down menu. However, once you have selected at least one course as a favorite, only your favorite courses will appear in the Courses list.
Note: Courses are always listed alphabetically; you cannot reorder your courses manually.
Open Courses
Manage Courses
To favorite a course, click the star next to a course [1]. Courses with yellow stars show the course is a favorite [2].
View Unpublished Courses
If a course is unpublished, and students are allowed to view unpublished courses before the course start date, students cannot favorite the course [1]. Students can hover over a star icon for an unpublished or concluded course and view a message indicating that the course cannot be added as a favorite. However, instructors can favorite unpublished courses [2].
View Past Enrollments
Depending on course configuration, some favorited courses may still display the favorite icon even after the course has ended. If a past enrollment course shows the favorite icon, users can unfavorite the course by toggling the star icon.

WICHITA FALLS, Texas – The Colorado School of Mines women's basketball team grabbed a two-point advantage with under seven to play Friday evening against host Midwestern State at the Comfort Inn Ashbrook Classic in Wichita Falls, Texas, yet were outscored 19-10 the rest of the way as the Mustangs handed the Orediggers their first loss of the year, 67-60.
Aided by a 24-of-29 (82.8 percent) performance at the charity stripe, including 13-of-16 in the decisive second half, MSU claimed the back-and-forth battle that featured 11 ties and 15 lead changes, outscoring Mines 36-to-29 in the second half to remain perfect on the season at 2-0.
Angie Charchalis reached double digits for the 13th time in 14 contests, leading all scorers with 23 points on 8-of-18 shooting.
The senior Preseason All-RMAC pick gave the Orediggers a 50-48 lead with 6:42 remaining with the go-ahead jumper, but the Mustangs finished perfect down the stretch, going 9-of-9 at the stripe and 5-of-5 from the field over the final 6:25 for their third straight win at D.L. Ligon Coliseum and 13th in their last 14 home games.
Freshman Courtney Martin collected season-highs in both points and rebounds with nine apiece to lead the Mines bench, while sophomore Taylor Helbig added eight and classmate Danielle Skinner finished with seven.
Despite a poor shooting night from the floor, Kirsti Degelia led MSU with 22 points, knocking down 12-of-13 free throws to go along with seven rebounds. Andrea Carter, the reigning Lone Star Conference Offensive and Defensive Player of the Week, finished with her second straight double-double with 12 points and 11 boards as the Orediggers were outrebounded for the first time this season, 35-to-34.
Mines finished with its lowest turnover total of the year with 16; however the Mustangs turned those giveaways into 22 points on the other end, leading to an 11-to-4 margin in fast break points and 24-to-18 edge in points in the paint.
The Orediggers conclude the two-day classic Saturday versus McMurry at 4 p.m. (MDT). The Warhawks fell to 0-3 earlier this evening with a 64-53 setback to fellow RMAC member, Fort Lewis.

JAMES Constable hailed goalkeeper Ryan Clarke after his late penalty save gave Oxford United a vital 2-1 win over Barnet last night.
Goals from Scott Rendell and Constable had put the U's ahead after they fell behind to a Michael Hector strike.
But with six minutes left, Damian Batt appeared to foul Ricky Holmes outside the box, only for referee Stuart Attwell to point to the spot.
But Clarke (pictured) saved the day, denying Izale McLeod with his legs.
It means that United's No 1 has now let in only five penalties from 15 that have been taken against him during his spell at the club.
"It's a phenomonal record," Constable said.
"I think when the penalty was given, most in the ground expected him to save it, which shows how well he has done from penalties."
He added: "From a personal point of view it was great to get another goal, but more importantly, we got the three points."
The win sees the U's move five points clear of the eighth-placed team and nine off automatic promotion.
Boss Chris Wilder said: "I thought we fell behind to a very unfortunate goal, but fully deserved to get back into the game before half-time.
"Barnet were on the rack for a lot of the first half and the first 25 minutes of the second period. We should have kicked on, but didn't.
"They will go away and say they have missed a penalty that would have given them a draw, but we have had lots of opportunities once again to win the game comfortably."
On-loan striker Rendell had told the Oxford Mail in the build-up to the game that he had a feeling it would be the match that he broke his duck for United, and so it proved.
"How about you come and speak to me before every match, then hopefully I can get even more goals," he laughed.
"But I was delighted to get the goal and hopefully it will be the first of many for Oxford."
