Nov. 19, 2013
COACH FERENTZ: Welcome, and just a couple things here real quickly. Our captains are the same four guys. Got James Morris and Chris Kirksey defensively, Brett Van Sloten and Mark Weisman offensively. Kind of appears to be locked in at that point. Steve just mentioned on Saturday is senior day, so it's obviously a bittersweet day for everybody involved and a very special day, seniors' last chance to play in Kinnick, and then on top of that we've got a very talented team coming in here with the University of Michigan, so really want to begin our preparation in earnest this afternoon.
Q. A year ago they handled the game pretty well. All of a sudden you look now and you guys are the favorite team. Does that surprise you a little?
COACH FERENTZ: I'm unaware of that, but last year we never even got our hands up, especially in that second quarter. It was over pretty quickly. They've got a lot of the same faces back from a year ago. I can't remember a Michigan team that wasn't extremely talented. We've still got a lot of work to do at our end, so it's going to be a tough, tough task for us.
Q. Teams have had a lot of success blitzing them, blitzing Gardner. What do you give up to do that?
COACH FERENTZ: The issue for us is we're not a big blitz team. Our percentages are probably way lower than most people. Typically for us to get there we've got to get there with our front four. That is an area we need to improve upon. It's going to be a challenge. But we certainly can't let him get comfortable back there and we can't let him get outside, either. He did that a few times last year and we paid for it, both run and pass. He's a very talented guy and can hurt you a couple different ways.
Q. Your defensive ends did a really good job against Northwestern containing Colter. Do you need that again?
COACH FERENTZ: I think we do, and fortunately we've been fairly disciplined. Ohio State got out on us. It was a tough one. Like Colter, Gardner is extremely capable and very dangerous, and that's something we're going to have to hopefully be disciplined again.
Q. With the defense, how much do you think last year's game will motivate you, the memory of what happened in that game? Do you guys bring it up?
COACH FERENTZ: I only bring it up because we're playing them today. Today is press day and you just get done looking at last year's film yesterday, and it was hard to watch. The good news is I think we're a totally different team than we were a year ago. We put that behind us at the end of November a year ago, and we've just been looking forward. But all that being said, the one thing that doesn't change is you play Michigan, they've got a lot of talented players. They're very well coached and it's going to be a tough, tough match up for us.
Q. Did you do a lot of work on Michigan last week, or was it more about a fundamental type of week?
COACH FERENTZ: We physically is fundamentals, and then coaching wise our guys were on the road a couple days and then came back in and get probably started much like the last bye week, game plan wise, but we didn't do anything on our opponent at all a week ago. We waited until Sunday.
Q. Given what Jordan Canzeri showed you at Purdue and given it's this late in the season, do you envision Jordan being a bigger part of the offense these last two weeks?
COACH FERENTZ: Well, he's certainly in the rotation now a lot more prominently than a month ago. And then the other good news is with the bye week, I think our backs will be fresher. I won't say they're worn down, but like our whole team, I think everybody gets a little bit tired as the year goes on. It's a long season. Last week gave our guys a chance maybe to get their legs back. Hopefully that's the case. I think we definitely saw it with Jordan in the two games he appeared in before the break.
Q. With what Braxton Miller did to your defense, is that a correctable thing or is that just a tip of the hat?
COACH FERENTZ: Yes and no. I say that, there were a couple plays that he just, in your mind, the play this year, Pryor in 2010, you go back to Seneca Wallace throwing that ball across the field for a 17 yard conversion, 3rd and 17 I think it was, you've got a couple Kodak moments that stick out in your mind that I'm not sure you can't defend those things. You keep trying, but you've got to give credit to your opponent, too. That's three in 15 years. That's a one every five years, so hopefully we used that one up this fall already. I hope.
Q. What can you say about how much your three linebackers meant to you this year? It's pretty unique to have three starting and playing so well?
COACH FERENTZ: They played pretty well a year ago and they're playing at a much higher level this year, I think, and that kind of tells the story that the deeper story to me is the leadership they've given and leadership is all about what you do in terms of demonstrating your commitment, and those guys really have practiced hard last spring, certainly in camp and they've played well all year long. But they've improved because they do work at it. They prepare, they study, they spend a lot of time. Beyond that they think way beyond themselves. They're really good team oriented guys. All three of them are just tremendous that way. Good with the younger guys, good with the older guys. Anything that we're doing they're in the front. I'm talking about things away from football, too. They're just you can't say enough about them. It's a really good group, and we've had some good groups. We've had some really good linebackers, just heard a story about Tarpinian surfacing in Houston. I don't know if you saw it or not this week, but it sounded like he was going to. We've had some really outstanding guys at that position, and these three guys have really done a nice job of leaving their mark here.
Q. You experienced two senior days as a father. What was that like for you just when those guys were introduced to the crowd, and what do you tell somebody like Greg Morris who's going to have having that moment Saturday?
COACH FERENTZ: Good luck. It's hard on all the coaches, I think. That's one thing about coaching in college or high school. Your guys graduate. You should get used to it, but you don't. It's always a little bit bittersweet that way. And that for a parent, that is a moment. Even if you are a coach, you are a parent at that moment more so than a coach, and it's hard. It's a tough thing. But you're also very proud of your I'll tell you, anybody that runs this race, and I say it all the time. I say it to our team, anybody that runs the race to become a senior and go through their senior year here, whether they're four year starters like James Morris or guys that never hit the field, the level of commitment that takes, mental toughness, all that stuff, the work these guys do behind the scenes, it's amazing. And then most guys suffer some type of injury. Hopefully it's not involving surgery, but most of them have experienced injury during their careers. It's just a really tough road. It's not for everybody. I think I speak for everybody on our staff, anybody that comes through the program and makes it to midfield at Kinnick, that's quite an accomplishment. We've been really fortunate. We've had a lot of great young people. That's not unique to Iowa, but it's a real compliment to the guys that do it.
Q. With the bond that Greg and James have, you've been around both of them for a long time. How do you feel it's strengthened since he's been here?
COACH FERENTZ: You're stealing time as a dad. I think Greg will probably tell you that because James could have gone to a lot of schools, and if he's somewhere else, those are moments you don't get. Any time you can steal time with your kids, it's no different for any parent, whether it's taking your kid to breakfast or whatever, just riding in the car with them, those are good things. Any time you get with them, that's bonus time, and I imagine that's pretty good for both those guys.
Q. The guys who never get their names in the paper are seldom talked about but do make it all the way to the end, what do they tell you five, ten years later?
COACH FERENTZ: I think back, we had a couple bumps in the road a couple years ago and one of the first names I'll think of is Brett Chinander, who happens to be good friends with my oldest son. He's a pretty successful young guy right now, works for John Deere, he's an engineering major, never started here or played any significant snaps, but just what they kickback to, and it's like anything in life, usually it's five years down the road or ten years down the road and you get letters and phone calls and things like that. I think any coach or any teacher or anybody in education, those are probably the best things that you experience, those comments you get. A lot of times you have no idea, I'm talking when I say you, I mean not me individually, but you just never know when you're going to impact someone, and I think that's one of the neat things for people that are involved in education or coaching, you get those opportunities, and that's probably why you'd better be careful what you're doing because you never know when you are impacting someone in a positive or negative way.
Q. Do you have any guys who would fit in the category of a senior class, oh, my goodness, you're still here and I'm glad you are, guys who kind of plug along and you look around, maybe they're on special teams, maybe not?
COACH FERENTZ: You know, I can just say this in general: The whole class, this class has just been totally committed, and they all made that choice and they knew it wasn't much fun last year at the end of the year. There wasn't a lot to smile about. There certainly wasn't much coming out of Ann Arbor, and a week later we're sitting there at 4 and 8, so that wasn't a lot of fun. But they all signed up for this this year, and not only did they sign up, but they really, I think, came together in a real strong fashion, and they've been just doing a great job of taking care of business and showing the younger guys what needs to be done and how to do it.
Q. Do you have admiration for a player like Nolan MacMillan who did start a few years ago and fought through a lot of injuries?
COACH FERENTZ: Yeah, in some ways it's easier to be a starter. It's easier to be motivated I would suppose. But for the guys that end up having heartbreak along the way due to injuries and that type of thing, that's part of the territory. Or just never knowing that they're not going to start, but hey, how can I help the team, and that's the neat thing about football I think especially because our numbers are so big that you have more individual type stories yet the common bond is they all care about each other. They're all committed to being good team members and they come to practice every day with a good attitude, and that is their responsibility, but they all embrace it. They're not fighting it, and that's a good thing.
Q. It seems like you've maybe played your best games this season on the road. You've obviously had three at home. Is there any reason for that or is it just luck of the draw?
COACH FERENTZ: I don't know. I mean, I look at everything individually, I guess. We played pretty well against Wisconsin for 50 minutes. As it turns out they're a good football team. I thought we played good against Northwestern. We did what it took to win, and they're another I know their record is not great, but you could do a pretty great story on their losses right now. They're a tough football team and they were tough the day we played them. Every game is kind of an individual thing, and Michigan State everybody was the sky was falling that day, too, and it turns out they're not bad. We thought they were pretty good going into the game. I think every week is an adventure.
Q. How do you stop a quarterback who can run?
COACH FERENTZ: The best way is probably is to find somebody who can track him down. It worked pretty good when we had Bob Sanders against Randle El. The trouble is finding that guy that can really do it and it makes it a little bit tricky.
Q. Did you do that against Northwestern?
COACH FERENTZ: Not really, no.
Q. Did you do it against Ohio State?
COACH FERENTZ: No. How do you match up with that guy? That's the problem.
Q. What can you say about the development of Rudock?
COACH FERENTZ: I think every step has been positive. He had a good week last week, too. It all starts with attitude, which we were sold on that part of it. You just never know what he's going to do during games and that type of thing. We've played 10 games now, and I think he's grown with every experience. As I've said all along, he really just kind of handles whatever comes in front of him in a pretty good way and doesn't react. Things don't affect him. They affect him but he doesn't let it affect him. He learns from it and moves on, and he's a tough minded guy, and the biggest thing now is he's earned everybody's respect by playing well. We're counting on him certainly the next two weeks.
. Is there any update on Dominic Alvis?
COACH FERENTZ: He's working a little bit. It's just a matter of how long he can go or how effectively he can play. We got a little bit of a look at him. We'll see what this week brings, but it's kind of day to day, actually.
Q. Most of the dual threats you've faced aren't as tall as Gardner. How much does that help him? He's 6'4".
COACH FERENTZ: He's a really imposing, physical guy. The guy at Ohio State was maybe not as tall but a strong guy. He's just a good, very dangerous player, and last year he really hurt us. He really hurt us, break and contain a little bit, but he hurt us more throwing the ball. He had 300 plus yards throwing, I guess it was, so he's capable of doing both.
Q. You have three senior linebackers. They probably assumed that that was the roadmap all along, you plug these three guys in and here they are. It hasn't been quite that easy. You had to kind of do some hunt and peck at least with Anthony?
COACH FERENTZ: Yeah, Hitch is a good example. He was a running back/safety, and we moved him to the position he's playing now. I actually threw him in against Missouri. I can't remember if we threw him in before that a little bit. Like most guys his career has been up and down a little bit but this year it's been up, and it's a real credit to him sticking with it, really studying, working hard. He's got a great attitude. He's always had a great attitude, but there's definitely experience, too. He's really making that work for himself.
Q. Do you think they're almost perfectly matched in their personalities?
COACH FERENTZ: Yes, I mean, they're all different, certainly. It's just been a good group to work with. They're a lot of fun. A lot of interchangeable parts, too. They can play a couple different positions. That's a good thing.
Q. It's not very often you see a kid play as many games as Mike Meyer has. Do you think that position is harder play because of the psychological nature?
COACH FERENTZ: Yes, it's not easy, and there have been instances where the longer it goes, the worse it gets for guys, the mental games that you can play with yourself a little bit. It's probably a little bit like being a golfer or a hitter in baseball, something like that. But yes, it takes a certain psyche, a mentality. I'm not saying his career is Nate Kaeding's career, but there are some parallels in that Nate had his ups and downs early and then just really hardened through the process, went on and did great things beyond playing in college. I think Mike has had his ups and downs, too, and again, that's very typical I think of any player in any position. Mike is in a position where it's kind of like Saturday night it's easier to say this team did that, that team did that, and everybody has got opinions about kickers because what they do is very visible, it's out there. When they perform, it's all out there for people. But he's really done a great job and he's done a great job on kickoffs, too, which was kind of under the radar a little bit, but really important to a football team.
Q. If you could use one word to describe Meyer, what would it be?
COACH FERENTZ: First thing I think about is the way he's matured. He's just an outstanding player. He and Casey Kreiter. Casey hasn't played as much, but both those guys just have tremendous attitudes, special teams guys that bring a lot of energy to the football team. Going back to that senior class, those guys are a little bit forgotten. They were only with the team for maybe 12 minutes a day in practice time, but they are totally on board.
Q. This time of year I know a lot of fans speculate about bowls. Do you hear any of that noise or do you think about what the future might hold?
COACH FERENTZ: I read all that last week and put it down, and clearly nobody knows anything about anything right now, other than there may be certain things. But the landscape looks different today than it did a week ago, and it'll probably keep changing. That's my guess, especially at the top. Early November is the panic season. We've got five teams or six teams that should be in the championship game, and it's amazing how that number gets pared down a little bit as things go along, so we'll just see where it all goes. Bowls are the same way. We're not too worried about that. We've got a real tough opponent this week.
Q. Does the team have better overall confidence this year than last year?
COACH FERENTZ: I have no idea. I think we're a little better so we're trying to do our part. We sure didn't do it last year.
Q. You had Purdue, did you work your way into sort of a plan at running back with Canzeri? And you used Mark in a lot of short yardage.
COACH FERENTZ: Yes, Mark was a little beat up at that point, but I think he's feeling a lot better now. So we'll try to use everybody we can, like every position, but one is a little bit more prominent so everybody can see what's going on there. Yes, if he's fresh and ready to go, we'll utilize everybody for sure.
Q. Would you have preferred to see Michigan lose Saturday as opposed to getting a little bit of a lift?
COACH FERENTZ: You know, I didn't have any real strong feeling. If I did, it didn't matter. Like most of my stuff. I was kind of watching and see what happened.
Q. How interesting is it to have a guy like Glen Masson, who you competed against, come in and call you game from the television booth?
COACH FERENTZ: Yes, he's probably not getting too many secrets. I think that's one I thing that's really been overstated through the years. I can remember not too long ago, people were really secretive about films and what you say at clinics and all that. Pretty much your résumé is what's on tape, and anybody can get tape anywhere now. It's true in coaching. I kind of enjoy it. I like hearing what he has to say, hear his perspective on things. I immensely enjoy Gerry DiNardo. I don't get to watch a lot of TV, but I think he and Howard Griffith do a really good job. I think they have a really good perspective from what I've seen, and I thoroughly enjoy it when they come through, what they see in practice, those types of things. I kind of welcome that actually. It's always good to hear what other people are saying that have been through it. It's kind of interesting what they observe.
Q. You competed against him for so long that you're able to just kind of put that in the rear view mirror?
COACH FERENTZ: He's not coaching right now, so I'm not too worried about it. But if he gets back into it what's he going to know, we run a zone play? Big deal. And we run an under defense. The cat's out of the bag on those two.
Q. You mentioned that you thought this team was improved from last year's team. How would you assess the improvement you've seen from last year to this year, and this final couple of games? Is that something you talk about with your team, that you've got the chance to make this a pretty special season?
COACH FERENTZ: We've talked about that from the start, when it started back in November. The only good thing about finishing the season, if it's a bad season, is that season is over. You do the same after a good season. It's a new season, whenever that curtain drops, which it dropped pretty early last year, so I guess the only positive was we had another month as this year's team to be together. You'd much rather be going into January before you go through that process. But no matter what happens you flip the page and you start new. No team is the same and no week is the same, either, once you get into a season. The one thing I will say, this group has really just been fun to work with since last November, and we're 10 games into it, 12 weeks into the season right now, and I say the same thing, and I'm pretty confident I'll be saying that 12 days from now or whatever it is, 10 days now. It's going fast. Hopefully we'll have a record we can fortify our record, but that's not going to come easy. We've got a lot of challenges starting today. Today's practices, we've got a lot of challenges in front of us. But it's been just a fun team to be around and coach.
Q. You mentioned last week that you had one player who might have been iffy before the game last week
COACH FERENTZ: Good to go. He was good to go Sunday, and ready to go. It was right there on the wire.
Q. James Morris is a semifinalist for the Lott Award. How proud are you of what he's accomplishing on and off the field?
COACH FERENTZ: We've had a lot of really exceptional people, and you don't want to say he's the only one because we've had some really outstanding guys who haven't gotten the publicity, but I can't think of many guys better than James that have come through here. He's just a really phenomenal guy. I'd love to take credit for his academic prowess, a lot of people would. But it's probably irresponsible. I wouldn't do that. Just everything he does, he does it in a first class way. He's just a tremendous student. He was honored by the political science department last spring, the National Football Foundation Hall of Fame scholarship. That group he'll be with in New York is a phenomenal group of young people, and he's just been a tremendous representative of our program, our state, our university, and certainly his family. You get those guys, and boy, I'll tell you when you have them you just enjoy them. You enjoy him every day, yet he's another guy on our football team. He's not somewhere up there. He's just one of the guys on our team, and that's something that is uncommon, too, so he is just a tremendous young man.

Community comes together for Candy Royalle
The LGBTI community is rallying behind local artist Candy Royalle, who was recently diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Maeve Marsden is on board.
My name is Maeve Marsden and I hate the word 'inspirational'. I am so desensitised to the Videos That Will Change Your Life shared daily on the book of face that I actively avoid any clips about people who might be construed as an 'everyday hero'.
And so it was that I almost didn't click on a video produced by local queer poet and artist Candy Royalle (pictured, above) when it sailed past my eyes as I scrolled down that familiar blur of blue. It was titled 'Love' and, with a screencap of a sunset as its holding image, it had all the markers of the kind of thing I regularly dismiss – the memes of misquoted dead heroes and clichéd proverbs pasted over pictures of trees. It was only what I knew of Candy's reputation as a politically engaged, clever, well-respected poet that led me to click. And I am so glad I did.
WATCH: Candy Royalle's 'Love'
The video is Candy's way of telling her fans and followers that she has been diagnosed with ovarian cancer and documents her shaving off the incredible head of hair she's cultivated over 9 years, a symbol of her creativity, personality and presence.
I've watched the film several times now and it is, indeed, inspirational. Not in a cheesy, pre-packaged clickbait way, but because, although I am an artist myself, I can't imagine having the strength and talents to convert my suffering so quickly into such a beautiful work of art. Candy's creative way of communicating what's happening to her isn't necessarily new or unique – many artists incorporate their struggles into their work, or indeed use their work to process challenges they encounter in their lives. But art doesn't have to be unique to be powerful, moving, generous or good.
I asked Candy directly how she had the idea to create the video.
"When I was diagnosed, I knew immediately that I would lose my hair once I started chemo and so there would be no hiding the fact I had cancer," she said. "It was important to me that I let those who support my work know in such a way that they were left feeling hopeful instead of hopeless. Lastly I needed a ceremony – 'hair-emony' ... haha – to let go of the hair I had been growing for the last 9 years. I decided to combine all those factors, plus a poem and make something beautiful out of something ugly, which is the point of art, right?"
The community has rallied in support of Candy, fundraising $7,000 on YouCaring.com to assist with her medical costs. Watching the donations go up over the past few weeks has reminded me of our community's strength and our ability to come together and look after our own.
I am passionate about politics and social (in)justice, making it easy for me to get cynical and scoot past the onslaught of links and clips, seeking out the opportunity for an online debate or a sharp-witted barb about an idiotic politician. I'm not about to give up my rage at everything that is going wrong in the world (as a passionately political artist, Candy wouldn't want me to!). But I am glad I watched that clip.
Whether it was her intention or not, Candy reminded me that, in small ways, people are always proving their ability to use creativity for good, to build family from community and to care for each other.
On August 24, Candy's friends and creative collaborators are producing a fundraiser event to help with her medical costs. One of the organisers, Nicole Barakat, believes that the event has come together because of how much Candy herself has already given to others.
"I see Candy as a person who ignites a fire in many of us," Nicole said. "She speaks truth to power and has given so much of herself to us. People recognise and acknowledge this in Candy and extend their hand without a second thought.
"I think that most of us are facing tough times at the moment, whether it is financially, emotionally, physically," Nicole adds. "I think that many people are frustrated with the bigger picture of the state of the world and the level of harshness and inhumanity that seeps into our communities through fascist government policies, corporate devastation of communities and the environment, genocide and injustice. Having said that, I believe that people are taking the power into their own hands and no matter how much we're struggling, we still find something to give, something to share with another human being."
I'll leave the last words to Candy.
"I have been totally humbled and blown away by the support multiple communities have been showing me – the arts community, queer community and others. I believe love to be a powerful force – one so immense that it can overcome anything. I am currently surrounded by an enormous amount of love – this gives me an abundance of strength but more, a huge hope for humanity. If communities can rally together like this when one gets sick, imagine our power as a collective force for those bigger issues!"

".. true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks" (John 4:23)
These are the words of Jesus to the Samaritan woman at the well. Not much ambiguity in His statement, is there? And we know that God knows our hearts. It is there that the truth is disclosed. It is there where the evidence resides as to whether we truly worship the Lord. As Jesus said in His sermon on the mount: "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matt 6:21). God knows if our "worship" of Him is true or is superficial. Our mindset on Sunday mornings is one indicator. As God accused the Jews through the prophet Amos: "you can't wait for the Sabbath day to be over and the religious festivals to end so you can get back to…" (Amos 8:5). Is your attendance at Sunday worship services like that? Is it a "put on", superficial, routine? Or it is it truly an act of worship, that resides in your heart and defines your life on Mondays through Saturdays as well? A song by Keith Green "My Eyes are Dry" says it well:
"My eyes are dry, my faith is old
My heart is hard, my prayers are cold
But I know how I ought to be
Alive to you and dead to me.

That rhymes :)
No problem :) Just wanted to make sure. You're on the list now.
Tivo is lying to you ;) We'll get an all new 2 hour show this Wednesday.
For some reason, Mad Men never puts any bloopers or outtakes on their DVDs. Maybe they'll release them one day after the show is over.
Idol has dispensed with the usual biography/questionnaire that the finalists fill out (which is just as welltheres only so many answers to questions like When did you want to be a singer? Whats your favorite color? What kind of tree would you be? etc.)
Now each singer has their own official fan page on Facebook where theyre free (more or less) to express themselves. And the comments they post there are more revealing about who they are than anything written in a fill-in-the-blank survey.
So Ive included a recent Facebook comment from each singer under their photos, along with a link to their fan page. Just click the accompanying Facebook icon.
Enjoy :)
It's really too bad that there are so many people in this world with such tainted views of reality. I have nothing but positive light in my universe right now. I'm trying to make a better life for me, and for my family. I'm living my dream. I pity you for having nothing better to do with your lives than to tear people down. Dear haters: I love you. You are fuel for my fire.

It's interesting to see how many "likes" each page has received so far (I think the pages have only been available since Thursday night or Friday morning). Most of the singers have between 6000 and 9000 likes. But Colton Dixon is way ahead with over 20,000 likes. The Gentle Giant has the least with less than 2700.
Thanks :)
If you want to make God laugh, just tell Him your plans.
Thanks Jonny!!
Thanks Jonny. I don't do facebook so it was nice to see.
Jonny, thanks for the ping! I've watched Idol very little this year, but it's interesting to see the top 13. (My Wed. night screenwriting class is still getting in the way!) I'm glad that Jeremy (Jeremiah? whatever — the black guy with the operatic voice) is in! But I predict his attitude will get him voted off the island sooner rather than later. Too bad; he does have quite a voice!
Have you seen this one? My husband and I were laughing so hard!
"Dre-dreamers"? Bleeeech.
I just had breakfast, for pete's sake. ;^)

Hi all!
It looks to me, like they have removed a lot of the goofiness from the earlier seasons. I think they are trying to be more serious.
Is this rule of the judges picking who gets eliminated just for tonight or all season? I feel like I missed some information.
Hi! I'm finishing putting laundry away. So, I'll be here full time in a few minutes.
Dramatic twist ... sorta.

Looking forward to enlightened and humorous snark tonight. I'll learn the contestants as we go...
(no activity)
He's first with Stevie Wonder's "I Wish". This guy doesn't get a lot of attention, but he's pretty good. Energetic performance.
Randy: You just blew it out at the top of the show! If you feel the beat like that you can do anything. Flawless!
J-Lo: I felt your performance! You made us feel it. (rambles)

The State of the African Americans in Kern County is an exceptional opportunity for NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) Bakersfield chapter President Patrick Jackson Jr. to talk directly with Kern County citizens, particularly African Americans. "I hope that (the attendees) leave with aspirations ... and a mindset of growth," Jackson said.
The 2nd Annual 2014 Panel discussion will emphasize three primary premises -- opportunity, engagement, and results. These three premises will be discussed in topics such as Business, Education, Religion, Law Enforcement, Media, Health, and Fatherhood.
The topics are important, because they prompt African Americans in Kern County to proactively classify both short-term and long-term priorities in a positive interactive dialogue session with a panel of guest that includes, Anthony Bailey ~ Reporter and Weekend Weather Anchor of KBAK & KBFX Eyewitness News, Arleana Waller ~ Founder/CEO of Rich Girl Entertainment, Danny Morrison ~ On-Air Personality at HOT 94.1, Keith Wooldridge~ President of The Panama Buena Vista School District School Board, Nick Hill III ~ President/CEO of The Kern County Black Chamber of Commerce. Attorney Curtis Floyd will be the moderator.
Last year the NAACP brought together a panel of local black community leaders who discussed issues facing the black community and potential solutions. The list of Panelist included: Morgan Clayton, Captain Hajir Nuriddin, Michael Bowers, Dr. Claudia Johanna, Charles West and Gwen Johnson. Attorney Curtis Floyd was the moderator.
Engagement and results are the goals of NAACP President, Patrick Jackson Jr. this year. One citizen stated that in the pass too much conversation has centered on old rhetorical paradigms. It has been said the debates go unresolved and rarely give way to real change that substantially improve the lives of African Americans in Kern County. NAACP hopes is to change that in Kern County.
The Public is invited to attend this FREE event, Saturday, March 1, 2014 at the Beale Library, 701 Truxtun Avenue, Bakersfield, CA 93301 from 10:30 to about 1:30pm. You Can Make A Difference. For more information call 661-368-5323 or visit the website at WWW.NAACPBAKERSFIELD.COM
The NAACP will not eliminate racial groups from attending, but they are taking action on what African Americans in Kern County feel are their biggest challenges. Paying particular attention to problems that can be solved quickly with change on a local level. Aside from short-term tactics being discussed, the panel will discuss with the audience ways to develop long term ideas and changes for the future of African Americans in Kern County.
The NAACP Bakersfield Chapter realizes this is no easy process, and it involves pulling together scholars and other experts in hopes for positive change. The process will also require significant input from elected officials, journalists, business, think tanks, foundations, clergy, community leaders, and other communities of color.
NAACP hopes that you will play your part in making positive change for African Americans in Kern County. Let your Voice Be Heard.

A TOWN in Germany wants to form a link with Malmesbury because it was founded by a monk from the abbey more than 1275 years ago.
Bad Hersfeld in Hesse, still holds a festival every October to celebrate St Lullus, who left the Benedictine monastery in the 730s and began a mission to convert the German tribes to Christianity.
In contrast to Eilmer the flying monk, he has virtually been forgotten back home in Malmesbury.
Economist and keen historian Dr Sigmar Gleiser decided to it was time to try to revive a previous attempt at twinning 25 years ago, when he visited the UK last summer and discovered a reference to Lullus in a town brochure.
Now both towns are looking at forming a friendship.
Malmesbury historian Cllr Charles Vernon, who has been in contact with Dr Gleiser, explained there was a problem with an official twinning because Malmesbury already has German twin, Niebull.
"But there is interest in forming a link," he said. "And it has been taken to the twinning association."
Lullus was made the first regular archbishop of Mainz by Pope Hadrian I and died five years later in 786 in Hersfeld Abbey. He was canonised in 852.
Bad Hersfeld, which has a population of more than 30,000, is famous in Germany for its annual Bad Hersfeld Festival held in the ruins of its abbey since 1951.
It has also staged Lullusfest, the oldest folk festival in Germany, since 852.
The town was fought over and the abbey destroyed in 1761 during the Seven Years War. In 1945 it was saved from destruction when two officers who had been prisoners of war guaranteed a peaceful hand over to the Americans.

The Utah Museum of Fine Arts has an amazing collection of handmade textiles, including American indian blankets from then 1920s and 1930s and silk thangkas. Unfortunately, you usually only get to see them if you are a volunteer helping in their preservation or a journalist who cages a visit into the catacombs beneath the museum.
But you'll get at least a taste of what we like to think of as the "secret treasures of the UMFA" in Sept. 17 when a mini-exhibit will be hung in the museum's foyer. If you have an interest in weaving, interior design, art or just marvel at the beauty artisans create with their hands, we recommend you check it out.
Can't wait until the exhibit opens? Salt Lake magazine is offering a video tour of the UMFA's textiles down under and the painstaking effort to preserve them produced videographer Fernando Lara.
By the way, you too can become a UMFA volunteer.

TUCSON, Ariz. ?- The Trevor Crowe Show highlighted No. 8-ranked Arizona's 7-5 win over No. 15 Oregon State in its Pac-10 series opener against the Beavers at Jerry Kindall Field at Frank Sancet Stadium in Tucson on Friday.
The victory, UA's seventh straight, improved the Wildcats to 25-10 overall and to an all-time best 9-1 in Pac-10 play. Oregon State dropped to 26-6 overall and 5-2 in the conference with its season-high second straight loss.
Crowe finished the contest 3 for 4 with a pair of singles, his eighth triple of the season, a sacrifice fly, two stolen bases and four RBI. He broke a scoreless tie in the second inning with a two-out, three-run triple to right field and stole home two pitches later for a 4-0 Arizona lead. The junior led off the game with a single up the middle to mark the 20th time in 35 games he has reached base in his first at bat of a game, while also extending his hitting streak to 11 straight..
Despite Crowe's efforts, OSU made a contest of it and it took a pair of late Wildcat runs to hold off the persistent Beavers.
Staked to a 5-0 lead on Crowe's second inning heroics and a two-out RBI double by Chris Frey in the third, the Beavers rallied for three runs in the sixth off of UA starter John Meloan to cut the Arizona advantage to two.
Jordan Brown hit his team-best 10th home run of the year with two outs in the seventh to push the lead back to three runs at 6-3, but OSU got to Arizona relievers Eric Berger and Mark Melancon for a pair of runs on back-to-back doubles by Darwin Barney and Shea McFeely in the eighth.
Crowe's sac-fly in the home half of the eighth capped off the scoring and Melancon settled in to work a scoreless ninth for his sixth save of the year.
Meloan, who struck out 11 OSU hitters in six innings, picked up his 17th-straight win dating back to last season and moved to 7-0 on the year. He gave up three runs, two earned, on seven hits and walked two in the game.
OSU's Dallas Buck (7-1) was charged with his first loss of the year after giving up a season-high six runs on six hits in 6 2/3 innings. Buck struck out four and walked four on the night.
Arizona Junior Nick Hundley was the only other Wildcat to finish with multiple hits, as Oregon State out-hit Arizona 10-8 in the game. Hundley extended his hitting streak to 11 straight games in finishing 2 for 3 with a double and a run scored in the contest.
Arizona and Oregon State will meet up for game two of the three game series on Saturday at 7 p.m. Junior Kevin Guyette (6-2) is the scheduled starter for the Wildcats. The game can be heard live on the radio on 1290 AM The Source.
Trevor Crowe's straight steal of home in the second inning was the first for Arizona since former Wildcat Pat Reilly swiped home against Portland on March 12, 2003 ... Friday's contest was the 24th game this season that Crowe finished with two or more hits ... Oregon State stranded five of its eight runners left on base in scoring position ... Six of Arizona's seven runs in the game came with two outs ... Arizona won its ninth Pac-10 game in its 10th conference contest. Last year the Wildcats picked up their ninth Pac-10 win in their 18th game.

David Nolan of Catholics for Choice gives us a run-down of the agenda for the upcoming World Congress of Families Regional Congress, an event to be held during the UK's "National Family Week." You can guess what kind of families organizers and speakers are — in some cases, literally — lobbying for. (Not yours nor mine, most likely. Indeed, the agenda gives the impression that there once was a God-blessed mythical family, a foundational community building block that, if reestablished, would end a host of social ills that, um, secular government can't; it's a notion that historical and contemporary data in both the US and the UK refutes. But let's not much up a fine story.) Nolan writes:
While National Family Week celebrates "the great diversity of families in the UK," this conference has something a bit more particular in mind. According to its Web site, the purpose of the World Congress on Families is to defend the traditional family from "ideologies of statism, individualism and sexual revolution," and a shopping list of associated problems including "divorce, devaluation of parenting, declining family time, morally relativistic public education, confusions over sexual identity, promiscuity, sexually transmitted diseases, abortion, poverty, human trafficking, violence against women, child abuse, isolation of the elderly, excessive taxation and below-replacement fertility." To call this gathering conservative would be an understatement.

Monty's Mischief
By dcb on Mar 01, 2005
Don't be fooled by the apparent simplicity. You've been warned :-)
Monty tells you that behind the three curtains are hidden two booby prizes and one desirable prize. Since you won the game show's challenge, you get to pick! You figure you've got a ~33% chance of winning, so you randomly pick a curtain and cross your fingers. Vanna's twin sister walks over to the curtain of your choice and is about to reveal your prize. Your heart is racing. Then Monty stops her and asks if you're sure about your choice. In fact, he'll help you out! He tells Anna to open one of the other curtains. That one contains a goat! Now, asks Monty, do you want Anna to open your original curtain, or do you want to switch? What should you do? Does it matter?
In case you give up, here is the solution:

Lloyds should change CEO bonus vesting, not size
Best of a bad job
A storm is brewing over Antonio Horta-Osorio's bonus. Like banking peers, Lloyds was shamed in 2012 for past mis-selling of mortgage insurance. Yet there was progress in restructuring and the boss deserves any payout due. To become palatable, the award could be deferred not cut.

College Hockey:Bazin reportedly next coach at Massachusetts-Lowell
While nothing official has been announced, a report in the Lowell Sun all but confirms Norm Bazin as Massachusetts-Lowell's next head coach.
Blaise MacDonald was let go following this past season.
Bazin played for the Riverhawks from 1990-1994 and has previously been an assistant coach at Lowell and Colorado College and most recently, was the head coach at Division III Hamilton College.
According to the Sun, during the interview process, one person familiar with the situation said Bazin "didn't just hit a home run, he hit a grand slam."
Along with Bazin, UML also reportedly interviewed U.S. National Team Development Program coach Ron Rolston, Union assistant coach Rick Bennett and Lowell alum Mark Carlson, currently the head coach of the USHL's Cedar Rapids RoughRiders.

The Chicago White Sox avoided arbitration today with two key components of their 2014 roster. Second baseman Gordon Beckham and Alejandro de Aza both inked one-year deals and both got raises. Beckham will make $4.175 million (up from $2.975 million) while De Aza will bank $4.25 million (up from $2.075 million).
Beckham will look to pickup the pace after being an offensive disappoint since being drafted eighth overall in 2008. He hit a respectable .267 last year, but only had 5 homeruns while driving in 24. His career OPS also comes in under .700, but he's known around the league as a good glove man. In 2013, his fielding percentage was .975, the lowest it has been since his rookie season.
De Aza, on the other hand, appears to be nothing more than a fourth outfielder heading into spring training in a few months. The former starter in center scored 84 runs last season hitting at the top of the order. After acquiring Adam Eaton from the Diamondbacks this winter, the most the 29-year-old can hope for these days is a platoon against righties and the occasional pinch-running opportunity. In 2011, De Aza hit .329 in 152 at-bats.
Both deals mean the Pale Hose no longer have any arbitration eligible players remaining on their roster. GM Rick Hahn might look to add a piece or two before Opening Day, but the big moves seem to already be in the books.

College Hockey:Miller, Spartans Stop Huskies In First Round Of GLI
Early Lead Dissipates, MTU Denied Another Fairy-Tale Run
DETROIT — There won't be any Cinderella run for Michigan Tech this time in the Great Lakes Invitational.
The Huskies jumped out to a surprising 1-0 lead, despite being outshot 15-4 in the first period. But that was the only offense they would muster against goaltender Ryan Miller and the Michigan State Spartans, who cruised to a 4-1 victory.
Michigan State (13-3-2) will take on North Dakota Saturday night at 7:35 p.m. in its quest for a fifth straight GLI crown. MSU earned a rematch of last year's Frozen Four semifinal game, when the Fighting Sioux shut out the Spartans, 2-0.
"I guess it's been kind of a stage for a revenge game," Miller said.
There was no such revenge on Friday for the Huskies, who outplayed a heavily favored Michigan State team a year ago in the GLI championship game, roaring back from a 2-0 deficit to force overtime. The Spartans still won 3-2.
This time, Michigan's State aggressive forechecking and its offensive-minded defensemen constantly applied pressure on Tech's freshman netminder Cam Ellsworth — not giving the Huskies much room to breathe.
John-Michael Liles' goal illustrated the Spartans' defensemen's knack for jumping into the play. Liles pinched into the zone while his teammates forechecked and tapped in fellow defenseman Andrew Hutchinson's rebound, tying the game at 1-1. Liles also added an assist and now has 13 points in 18 games this season, as does Hutchinson.
"Their skill on defense was the difference in the game," said Michigan Tech coach Mike Sertich. "(Freshman) Duncan Keith is as skilled a defenseman I've seen come into college hockey in a long time."
The usually defense-oriented Spartans exploded at the offensive end, outshooting Michigan Tech, 44-23.
The Huskies held a one-goal edge until the middle of the second period, when Michigan State scored three goals in a span of 10 minutes.
"If you're going to let them score, it's better if they score early," Michigan State coach Ron Mason said.
Michigan Tech's Paul Cabana was the only one to beat Miller, as his tally just over four minutes into the game energized the crowd and gave the Huskies hope for an upset.
But Cabana said the turning point was the two ensuing breakaway chances that the Huskies had, both turned away by Miller, which gave rise to the Spartans' onslaught.
"Our guys play more of a creative style now," Miller said. "And my job is to make up for their mistakes."
Freshman center Ash Goldie scored the Spartans' second goal and assisted on linemate Adam Hall's tally late in the third period — which put the nail in Michigan Tech's coffin.

With the new season, comes new fashions – or at least it should. Get rid of your lame collection of last year's tees and give yourself something to smile about with a little wardrobe update this spring. All of these tees have been tested and approved by yours truly – a ridiculously picky tee shirt addict with super sensitive skin, and a high expectation for tees.
Fox Vandal Women's Tee
This sassy little scoop neck Vandal tee from Fox is definitely a new fave. It says, "What the Fox?" on the front and is perfect for those ladies that love their Fox gear with a little bit of attitude. This tee is super-comfortable and is made from a cotton/polyester blend so it fits really well too. New arrival at Tilly's, $23.99
Mary Jane Smokewear Peace, Love, Cannabis V Neck Tee
This shirt is an absolute must have for cannabis supporters! It's a sexy-stylish v-neck tee that is the perfect shade of green. This pot-friendly tee allows trendy ladies to show their support without over-doing it. The shirt has a pattern of pot-leaves, peace-signs, and hearts in one small vertical stripe at one side of the shirt and says, "Peace, Love, Cannabis" on one side of the v-neck. It is made from 100% cotton and is super soft and comfortable. It is my new favorite tee! $25
Yogiiza Unified Tee
If you're a yoga girl, then you definitely need this Unified Tee from Yogiiza. It's a short-sleeve scoop neck that is made from 100% organic cotton and it is unbelievably comfortable. Wear it while you're working out or even when you're out and about – either way, it's adorable. The Unified Tee is available in earth green or white. $40
Simply Vera Vera Wang Solid Tee
Vera Wang has fabulous style, even when it comes to tees. This long sleeved tee is solid in color, making it easy to pair with items already in your closet and in my book that definitely makes it a must-have wardrobe staple for just about every season. It's available in simply white, heather gray and walnut. $34
Girls Can't What Shirt
Girls – you're going to love this Girl's Can't What? line. It's a collection of customizable images that feature girls taking part in activities you wouldn't normally expect. Once you customize your girl, then you decide what to put her on; tees, sweatshirts, key chains, and more. I designed a biker chic and customized her right down to her green eyes and the color of her boots. She turned out adorable and now I'm the proud owner of a black v-neck tee with her on it. It's one of my faves! Prices vary on these tees (and products) but they are very reasonable.
GWear 9 Hearts Eco Boyfriend Tee
GWear is such an awesome line to sport around. Every one of their shirts is made by hand with recycled materials and fabrics so no two are the same – talk about cool and unique. This slouchy boyfriend tee is super-comfortable and looks absolutely adorable on. Wear it with jeans, leggings or jeggings – it's super versatile too! $62
SO Slubbed Hooded Tee
This SO Slubbed Hooded tee shirt is totally adorable for the causal days. It is super-soft and has a comfy scoop neck top with long sleeves and a hood. It looks adorable with jeans, leggings, and even capris for the warmer days. It's available in six colors including aqua sky, striking pink and smooth satin. $24

The Natural World
The student should gain an understanding of the natural world through scientific inquiry and see the relations among science, technology, and contemporary culture.
Almost every aspect of our lives is influenced by advances in technology and the natural sciences. To fulfill our roles as responsible citizens, we must be scientifically literate. We offer courses in Biology, Chemistry, Geography, Geology, Physics, Psychology, Health and Fitness, and Environmental Sciences that help you achieve this goal.
Back to General Education Home
Social Institutions, Processes, and Behavior
The student should achieve, through empirical and analytical methods, an understanding of human behavior, relationships, or institutions.
We live in societies that are growing increasingly complex and we all participate in relationships with people and institutions that influence our lives. Wittenberg offers courses in several disciplines that help students learn to think critically about social institutions and relationships. Courses from the following disciplines and departments help students meet this goal: Economics, Education, Geography, Health, Fitness and Sport, Management, Political Science, Psychology, Religion, Sociology , Communication (including courses in Anthropology), and Urban Studies (under construction).
Back to General Education Home
Fine, Performing, and Literary Arts
The student should gain an understanding of aesthetic experience and of how the arts enrich and express the human spirit.
Wittenberg is committed to helping students realize their full potential. To understand fully the world's cultures and their own creative spirits, students must encounter the richness of the arts. To achieve this goal, students may select courses in Art, Communication, English, French, German, Japanese, Music, Russian, Spanish, Theatre and Dance.

Religious and Philosophical Inquiry
The student should gain an understanding of how central questions of reality, knowledge, and value are pursued in religious and/or philosophical traditions.
A pluralist, interfaith, and ecumenical community, Wittenberg encourages students to explore religious and philosophical traditions so that they are better prepared to examine the difficult ethical issues that characterize modern society and so that they may develop a philosophy of life that will provide them with a strong moral and spiritual foundation.

Back to General Education Home
Western Historical Perspectives
The student should gain an understanding of the histories of the peoples and cultures of Europe and/or of the post-Columbian Americas.
We live in a culture that the rest of the world calls "Western". As educated citizens of a Western democracy, however, students must learn to place the "West" in a global and historical context and to think critically about Western traditions. Students may select courses from several departments to fulfill this goal: Art, Communication, English, German, History, Music, Religion, Political Science, Spanish, Theatre and Dance.
Back to General Education Home
Non-Western Cultures
The student should gain an understanding of the diversity of non-Western cultures through a study of the history, institutions, or traditions of one or more of these cultures.
