Bucknell senior Doug Shribman
March 7, 2011
Center Valley, Pa. -- The Patriot League announced its weekly awards for Feb. 28-March 6 in men's lacrosse, women's lacrosse, softball and baseball Monday.
Doug Shribman is the Patriot League's new home run king in baseball. The Bucknell senior belted three home runs in a doubleheader Saturday to push his career total to 33, besting the former League record of 30. Shribman was named the Player of the Week, while Holy Cross' John Pedrotty won the Pitcher of the Week and Kyle Sterns won the Rookie of the Week.
It was a relatively quiet week in Patriot League softball, as Colgate and Holy Cross opened their seasons, Army and Lehigh saw action and Bucknell and Lafayette took time off to get ready for the grind of March. The Rebel Spring Games began over the weekend, starting a stretch where League teams will combine for 33 contests in the next seven days. Lehigh and Holy Cross are both on the diamond on Monday, with each playing a pair of contests in Kissimmee, Fla.
It was a wild week in men's lacrosse, and it started out with the first Patriot League contest of 2011. It wound up being a historic contest, as Lehigh's 14-10 win over Navy in Bethlehem, Pa., was the Mountain Hawks' first over the Mids since 1913, and was just the program's second all-time win in 30 tries over the Naval Academy. The week ended with Army's 11-9 victory over No. 5/6 Cornell on Saturday afternoon at West Point in a rematch of last year's NCAA Tournament quarterfinals, as the Black Knights received four goals from Offensive Player of the Week Devin Lynch and 17 saves from Goalkeeper of the Week Tom Palesky. Colgate captured a historic victory of its own on Saturday, as the Raiders' 11-7 triumph over Hobart was their first against their in-state rivals since 1964. Lafayette also posted a win last week after Tom Perini's eight-goal outburst led the Leopards to a 16-8 win at Wagner.
Army's win moved the Black Knights up to No. 12 in the Nike/Inside Lacrosse media poll and 16th in the USILA rankings, while Bucknell slipped to No. 19 in the media poll. Both the Bison and Lehigh received votes in the coaches poll.
The season continues with another crucial League contest Monday night when Bucknell hosts Navy at Christy Mathewson-Memorial Stadium in Lewisburg, Pa., at 7:30 p.m.
Lehigh had the best showing of three Patriot League women's lacrosse teams that played against nationally ranked teams last week. The Mountain Hawks took a 6-5 lead over No. 17/14 Florida shortly after halftime, but the Gators used a 10-4 run to put the game away.
Navy fell 18-8 to No. 2/2 Northwestern, a team that is 5-0 with wins over No. 3 North Carolina, No. 7 Georgetown, No. 10 Notre Dame and No. 11 Vanderbilt. Holy Cross also played strong against No. 16/16 Boston College, falling 12-7.
Three players from the aforementioned teams were honored with Patriot League weekly awards after their performances last week.
Lehigh's Lauren Dykstra led the way with her eight goals and two assists, winning the Offensive Player of the Week award. She jumped from seventh to third on the Patriot League's all-time career goals list with 201.
Jen Eikenberg won her first and Navy's third straight Defensive Player of the Week award, and teammate Aimee Gennaro won her third weekly award and second Rookie of the Week award.
Lafayette's Ana White, who was last week's Rookie of the Week, was selected as the Midfield Player of the Week.
Patriot League play will open up in women's lacrosse this Saturday with three contests, all starting at 1 p.m. Navy will travel to Bucknell, Lehigh will host Colgate and Holy Cross will travel to American. Lafayette will be idle on the League schedule, but will play a pair of non-League games in California.
Patriot League Baseball Weekly Awards
DOUG SHRIBMAN, BUCKNELL Sr., 1B, Marblehead, Mass.
Shribman entered the weekend tied for the Patriot League career home run record, and claimed sole possession of the mark with three home runs in the series at VMI to give him 33 for his career. It breaks the Patriot League and school record of 30 set last year by Andrew Brouse. Shribman hit all three of the home runs in Saturday's doubleheader split with the Keydets. He belted a pair while going 3-for-4 with 3 RBIs and adding a double in a 4-2 win, then hit another in a 7-3 loss in the nightcap. Shribman leads the Bison with six home runs and 14 RBIs, and his 118 career RBIs are within 12 of the Patriot League top 10. He has 27 home runs in the past two years and 15 in the last 20 games. Shribman earns the Patriot League Player of the Week award for the second time in his career and first since 2009.

In the second game of the day, an 8-3 loss to South Dakota, Belanger went 3-for4 at the plate with a double, an RBI and a steal with two runs scored. Through two games, she's 4-for-7 at the dish and leads the Crusaders hitting .571.
RACHEL LeCOQ, COLGATE Fr., P, Gonzales, La.
LeCoq made three appearances in Colgate's first five games and was the pitcher of record in both of her team's victories as the Raiders opened the season at the Florida Gulf Coast Tournament in Fort Myers, Fla. She pitched a pair of complete games, including a six hitter as the Raiders defeated Dartmouth 6-1. She yielded one unearned run, walked one and struck out seven against the Big Green. She tallied the win in Colgate's first victory over St. John's since 1985 when she gave up seven hits, walked three and struck out four in a 2-1 triumph over the Red Storm. In all she totaled 17 innings in three appearances, allowed two runs (one earned) and four walks while striking out 12. She's 2-0 on the season with 0.41 ERA.
AMANDA NGUYEN, ARMY Fr., 2B, Houston, Texas
Nguyen went 3-of-6 at the plate during an abbreviated weekend for the Black Knights, who saw the final two games of their four-game set at George Washington rained out. The freshman from Houston went 2-for-3 at the plate in Saturday's first game, a close 6-5 loss at the Colonials, before she went 1-for-3 in the second game, a 6-2 loss. She collected her first career double in Saturday's second game and beat out infield hits twice to get on base during the shortened series. She was solid defensively at second base, committing zero errors in 11 opportunities.
Patriot League Men's Lacrosse Weekly Awards
DEVIN LYNCH, ARMY Jr., M, Skaneateles, N.Y.
Lynch found an opportune time to post a career-high, as he found the back of the net four times, including the tally that stood up as the game winner with 3:25 left in the third quarter, as No. 20/19 Army posted an 11-9 victory over No. 5/6 Cornell on Saturday afternoon in the Black Knights' home opener. All four of Lynch's tallies came during a 20-minute stretch that spanned the second and third quarters, including one with the extra man that tied the game at 5-5. The win helped Army move up both the Nike/Inside Lacrosse Media and the USILA Coaches polls on Monday.
TIM HENDERSON, ARMY Jr., LSM, Tully, N.Y.
Henderson scooped a career-high six ground balls and caused two turnovers in Army's 11-9 upset of No. 5/6 Cornell on Saturday afternoon at West Point.

TOM PALESKY, ARMY Sr., GK, Plano, Texas
Palesky posted another strong performance against a nationally-ranked team, making 17 saves and holding No. 5/6 Cornell to single digits in Army's 11-9 victory over the Big Red on Saturday at West Point. Facing 42 shots, Palesky recorded a .654 save percentage and picked up his second win of the year. He played all 60 minutes, and the best of his 17 saves was off a point-blank opportunity for Cornell with 1:11 remaining in the game.
MIKE GALIONE, LAFAYETTE Fr., A, Ridgefield, Conn.
Galione was an offensive sparkplug for Lafayette as he set up five of the team's six goals in its narrow 7-6 loss at No. 16/14 Penn on Friday night. Galione holds the team lead with six assists and is tied for third in the Patriot League averaging 1.50 assists per contest. The five dishes is tied for the single-game high this season with Lehigh's David DiMaria.
ADAM JOHNSTON, LEHIGH Jr., A, Street, Md.
Johnston scored eight goals on the week, four in Tuesday's Patriot League schedule-opening 14-10 win over Navy and another four on Sunday in the 13-9 win over Detroit Mercy. Tuesday's win over the Mids was Lehigh's first since 1913.
TOM PERINI, LAFAYETTE Sr., A, Huntington, N.Y.
On the eve of being named a candidate for the 2011 Tewaaraton Award, Perini tied a Patriot League record with eight goals in a 16-8 win at Wagner last week. Perini is tied for the League lead averaging 3.00 goals per game with Colgate's Peter Baum.
PETER BAUM, COLGATE So., M, Portland, Ore.

Baum leads the team with 15 goals shares the League lead of 3.00 goals per game with Lafayette's Tom Perini.
RYAN SNYDER, LEHIGH So., M, Reading, Pa.
Snyder totaled 24 ground balls last week and went 31 of 44 on the X for the Mountain Hawks in a pair of victories, including Tuesday's 14-10 win over Navy. Snyder has 46 ground balls on the season and is on pace to challenge the NCAA record of 194 held by Geoff Snider.
SAM JONES, NAVY Fr., A, Annapolis, Md.
Jones had a hand in half of Navy's offense last Tuesday, scoring four times and adding an assist in the Mids' 14-10 loss at Lehigh. His goal output tied a career best, and he also caused two turnovers. He is tied for the Patriot League lead with 3.75 points per game.

Is the market filtering the same as a phone (auto detects required features and OS version) or do developers need to specifically set attributes on their apps for them to be available on tablets running Android?
From what I read a few days ago, tablet cannot run Android Market (and therefore will not be distributed with it) until 2.3 is released in the early part of next year. I have heard of a few tablets being released using the manufacturers own market-type application but nothing using the official Android Market.
I think we'll have to wait until 2.3 is released before we hear about tablet support =(
Since the answer from gsteinert is a little bit outdated, I will try to give an update:
Apps on tablet will go to the same filter process as apps on phones on the Market.
Apps that appear on tablets follow the same filtering rules as with phones. Developers are given the ability to set attributes for their app in the, so called, manifest. For example: If an app declares that it's, for whatsoever reason, only compatible with small screen sizes, it will not show up on the Market on a tablet with greater screen sizes. Note that this case is very rare, because most apps that are only designed for small screens will either be upscaled or just use a small amount of the screen.
There is also a way to declare an app for honeycomb tablets only.
Again an update, as meanwhile Flow's answer also got a little outdated (LOL):
If you want to filter for good tablet optimized apps, for one there are specialized apps like Tablified Market or Tablet Market to help you out.
On the other hand, Google started to work on this issue meanwhile. So you find a tab titled Featured Apps for Tablets at least on the Google Play website. For details on this, you might also wish to read Google Play tablet apps getting special designation; according to that article, the Google Play Store is now only showing tablet-optimized apps in its top lists when accessed through a tablet.

Power Play Clicks For Water Polo In 11-8 Win Over El Camino
The Pasadena City College women's water polo team scored three times on the power play Wednesday and it was ultimately the difference in the Lancers' 11-8, South Coast Conference win over El Camino College at the Aquatic Center.
PCC improved to 3-4 overall and 1-2 in SCC matches.
Taking advantage of aggressive El Camino defense that resulted in numerous exclusions, the Lancers fought back from early 2-0, then 5-4 deficits. Giselle Mendietta, Makenzie Blank and then Lauren D'Angelo would all score on the player-advantage opportunities. D'Angelo's first goal of the season tied it at 5-5 with 5:48 left in the third quarter and sparked a 4-0 scoring run by PCC over a 3:30 span.
Blank's long-range shot gave PCC the lead for good at 6-5 (4:12 mark) and Milene Minassians capped the run with 2:18 to go in the third period, making it 8-5.
With two quick goals to start the fourth quarter, El Camino would claw back to cut it to 9-8. This time, right at the end of a power play, Minassians scored her third goal to give the Lancers a 2-goal edge with 4:38 remaining. Blank again hit from long range on a pass from Minassians (2:57) to cap the scoring.
PCC's defense came up big thanks to Shelby Gregg, who made four steals and a shot block as a field player during the first half, and then totaled seven saves as the Lancers' goalie in the second half. Gregg stopped Erica Bender on back-to-back shot attempts that maintained PCC's 6-5 lead. Naoni Padilla had three saves during the first half as the Lancers' netminder.
Offensively, Blank scored four goals and added two assists as she upped her team season-leading goal total to 24. Mendieta tallied two goals and two assists while Paloma Barrera also scored a goal.
El Camino (5-4, 1-2 in SCC play) was led by Ariel Castillo with four goals.
Pasadena hosts Mt. San Antonio next Wednesday, Oct. 5 in a 3 p.m. conference match at the Aquatic Center.

Friday night it was 98 Degrees, who warmed up for their 10-years-and-counting reunion performance at the Summer MixTape Fest by crashing NKOTB's live version of "Hangin' Tough," and Saturday it was The Wanted, ushered onstage by New Kids on the Block during NKOTBSB's headlining set in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
The self-proclaimed "OGs" of the boy band world—barring any disagreement from New Edition—welcomed the newest genre members of the '10s for a collaborative rendition of their hit "Glad You Came." Sure, the five boys had previously serenaded the crowd with the ode to imbibing just a few hours earlier, but what's another sing-along between friends? The bachelorette party crowd flooding central PA's sweetest outdoor venue certainly didn't seem to mind.
Everyone jumped around and enjoyed themselves, with NKOTB members Danny Wood and Jordan Knight showing off their knowledge of the song's lyrics while encouraging the audience to really get down.
Donnie Wahlberg even picked up an inflatable glove sporting the Great Britain flag; Boston and the U.K. are a lot more alike than you think. Just look at all the love between heartthrobs!

Sick night
— Nathan Sykes (@NathanSykes) August 19, 2012
While it was the beginning of The Wanted's fall tour—they're in New York City next week for a Good Morning America performance and headlining gig at Arthur Ashe Kids' Day, among others—Saturday's show in Hershey was the final stop for the boy band supergroup we've come to know as NKOTBSB. Many "Once in a Lifetime" shirts were spotted in the crowd by those lucky enough to attend one or more of their massive nostalgia attacks, and while they alluded to the possibility of new albums or a 2013 "tensome" once Kevin Richardson has his stage legs back, their acknowledgment of a new group's stellar rise felt like a symbolic passing of the torch. "The state of the boy band is very fucking strong," concluded Wahlberg. Hard to argue with that. Watch below.

Nicki Minaj's bum shaking moves were not the only thing dropping jaws during a rehearsal for her performance at the MTV Video Music Awards. A six-foot snake taking a bite out of one of her dancers left people with their mouths gaping wide open aghast at what they just witnessed, according to Rolling Stone on Aug. 23.
Minaj was performing to her song "Anaconda" and what else would she use as a prop, but a six-foot long Boa constrictor, who was apparently hungry enough to bite the dancer. It could be the snake was just tired of being on set with all the bum bouncing. The Friday night incident put a screeching halt on the rehearsal and the dancer was rushed to the hospital, according to the New York Daily News.
The dancer was sent to the hospital out of precaution, this was only to make sure the snake's bite didn't leave her with an infection of some sort. Capt. Rory Brunner of the Los Angeles Fire Department reports that the snake isn't venomous, so there was no major concerns for the victim after she was bitten, reports ABC News.
Now that the slithering creature took a bite out of one of the dancers, it is not known if the snake will remain in the show after presenting a darker side. Will they get another snake or do away with the live Boa constrictor altogether? One way to find out is to watch Minaj during the MTV VMAs.
After the snake bit the dancer, someone on the set managed to corner the creature and get it into a container. More than likely that was the snake's handlers as live animals on a set usually come with a handler.
You would probably want a handler with a snake of this size, it's hard to imagine someone would just drop it off on the set and come back for it when they are done. Snakes are a creature that many are uneasy around and you can just imagine after the Boa constrictor bit the dancer that any uneasiness probably grew into fear!

Messages through Facebook recently united Samantha Futerman and Anais Bordier who believe they are biological sisters who were separated at birth. According to an April 2013 Yahoo news report, Futerman is an actress who lives in Los Angeles and Bordier is a French student living in London.
Bordier sent a Facebook message to Futerman after noticing some striking physical resemblance on a video-sharing site. The girls, who may be twin sisters separated during birth, were both born on November 19, 1987.
Both were placed in foster care and were adopted three months later by different families. Bordier and Futerman told their new social media fans that they plan on taking a DNA test to settle the biological cloud hanging over their heads.
Last year, Anais Bordier thanked her followers via Facebook for showing support for the sisters' new documentary "Twinsters". "Thank you so much for helping us reach our goal!! Sam and I can't wait to share our story with you, so please keep spreading the word and sharing!"
So far, the potential twins have raised more than $30,000 through a Kickstarter campaign so they can see each other and spend some quality time after nearly 25 years of separation.
However, those Kickstarter funds are likely to skyrocket given that news of their reunion have gone viral on the Internet since Monday. The "twinsters" was among the top trending stories on Yahoo's Trending Now blog as well as on social media analytics sites such as NewsWhip, and Farbod Sadeghian's VV Chart.
Social media accounts are making the world smaller. To an extent, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram and similar sites are breaking down geographical barriers by allowing users to connect with people around the world.
Additionally, social sites are filled with personal information that identifies its users. That enables siblings and relatives to identify their common heritage and reunite as a family.

Chronic sinus infections that are left untreated can result in severe headaches, sinus damage and, in extreme cases, cause problems in the eye area and the brain.
By utilizing groundbreaking technology, Dr. Kevin Sadati, an ENT surgeon specializing in minimally invasive nose and sinus surgery who practices in Newport Beach, California, is providing new hope for sinusitis patients. This procedure is designed for individuals who suffer from chronic sinusitis with poor response to medical treatment and who wish to have an office procedure without undergoing major surgery. www.orangecountynosejob.com
"For patients suffering from chronic sinusitis balloon assisted sinuplasty is an exciting dilation system that helps relieve symptoms without the need for invasive surgery," said Dr. Sadati. "It does not require a hospital stay or general anesthesia, and patients can return to normal activity the next day with minimal discomfort."
Dr. Sadati says that balloon dilation sinuplasty has proven to be a safe and effective treatment for his patients with sinusitis symptoms that are difficult to control with medication alone. This state-of-the-art technology can help improve quality of life almost immediately as it clears and drains the sinus allowing the patient better breathing. During this minimally-invasive procedure, a flexible balloon catheter is inserted through the nose and into the blocked sinus. The balloon is then gently inflated in the blocked sinus passageway to open it up, gently widening the nasal passways and resulting in restored drainage and other normal functions of the sinus area. Opening up the sinuses in this way allows infection to clear without invasive surgery or a hospital stay.
"My patients diagnosed with sinusitis often complain of headaches, drainage, bad breath, fatigue and even dental pain. When these symptoms last eight weeks or longer it becomes chronic sinusitis which can seriously infringe on daily activities and can become quite serious," explained Dr. Sadati.
Millions of people suffer sinus conditions and yearn for a treatment. What may start as a slightly itchy or runny nose, can quickly lead to a blocked nose, inflamed sinus passways, massive headaches and a head that feels like it has been filled with sand. Under normal conditions, the sinuses produce mucus and drain it through small openings in the nasal passages, but if a person is suffering with rhinosinusitis, as the disorder is medically known, swelling in both the nose and sinuses blocks that drainage, often resulting in a stuffed-up nose and an outpouring of green or yellow mucus. Pain or pressure builds up around the eyes or in the face, sometimes accompanied by severe headaches and even toothaches.
"Balloon sinuplasty was inspired by the concept of angioplasty where a balloon is used to open and clear blocked arteries," said Dr. Sadati. "We are holding to the same principles but instead are clearing sinus passways to restore normal and better function."
This new and exciting procedure offers a minimally-invasive in-office option to major sinus surgery, and typically results in faster healing and a more comfortable recovery. In most cases, no bone or tissue is removed during the procedure, which not only causes a lower amount of trauma to the patient, but it also helps preserve the natural function of the sinuses. Because of the minimal amount of trauma, bleeding is much less and, in a large number of cases, no packing is required. This makes the recovery process faster and easier and, while healing time varies on a patient-by-patient basis, many patients can return to normal activities shortly after the procedure.
"I encourage patients who have been diagnosed with chronic sinusitis and are not responding well to antibiotics to consider this treatment," explained Dr. Sadati. "It is by far the best choice to help alleviate these painful symptoms. It is also convenient, is generally covered by insurance and can be done as an out-patient procedure rather than a costly hospital stay."

Dotfiles are configuration files that reside in your home area. They are called dotfiles because they begin with the period or "dot" character. These files control many aspects of your Unix/Linux environment. For example, the default login shell for EECS accounts is Z-Shell (zsh). Its dotfiles include .zshrc (the main zsh configuration file) and .zlogin (a list of commands to execute at login, etc.).
This document describes listing and viewing dotfiles, common dotfiles, editing dotfiles, frequent tasks and problems related to dotfiles, and restoring all dotfiles.
By default, dotfiles do not appear in file listings:
prompt> ls
bin/ junk/ ntprofile/
Use the
-a option with the ls command to include dotfiles in the listing:
prompt> ls -a
./ .fvwm2rc .xinitrc
../ .login .xserverrc
.bash_login .logout bin/
.bash_logout .mailrc junk/
.bashrc .plan ntprofile/
.cshrc .project
.exrc .setprompt*
To view the contents of a dotfile, use your favorite "pager", such as more or less. Editing dotfiles is discussed later in this document.
Your EECS account has a set of default dotfiles for the most important applications. Here is a partial list of the dotfiles in your home area:
For more information on the specific dotfiles, read the manual pages (using
man command) for
finger, and
Before you attempt to edit any dotfile, make a backup copy of the file you are going to modify. The easiest way to do this is to copy the file to a new file with a different name. For example, if you will be modifying
.zshrc, run the following command:
cp .zshrc .zshrc.backup
This will copy your current
.zshrc file to
.zshrc.backup. Should you render your .zshrc unusable and are unable to fix the problem, you can always copy
.zshrc.backup back to
.zshrc and restore your previous settings.
To edit a dotfile, use any standard ASCII text editor such as vi. Once you have edited your files, you may need to log out and log back in to test any changes. If you are editing your Z-Shell dotfiles (e.g.,
.zshrc), you may be able to test the new configuration by using the source command:
source .zshrc
This command will reread your .zshrc file and apply any changes you have made. If you added or removed any entries from your shell's "path", we recommend that you log out and log back in to test the changes. For more information, please read the manual page for Z-Shell (
man zsh).
Here are some tips for performing basic modifications and solving typical problems.
The shell's "path" specifies the locations it searches for programs when you type a command. For
zsh, you add paths to the
.zsh_files/.zsh.path file. For example, to look in the directory
/home/mydir/bin for executables, add the following line to
export PATH="$PATH:/home/mydir/bin"
You should then log out and log back in for the changes to take effect.
If you made a backup copy of the dotfile before you modified it, simply copy the backup to the original file. For example:
cp .zshrc.backup .zshrc
If you did not make a backup, you can restore the default dotfile. The default EECS account dotfiles are stored in
~skels/default. For example, to restore the original
.zshrc file, run the following command:
cp ~skels/default/.zshrc ~/.zshrc
To restore all of the default dotfiles for your account, see the corresponding section in this document.
The default window manager supported by the EECS IT staff is Xfce. FVWM and GNOME are also available; however, we strongly recommend Xfce. If you would like to change your window manager, follow the directions below.
The instructions below pertain to new accounts created after June 2005, or if you have updated your dotfiles.
switchdesk fvwm
switchdesk gnome
switchdesk xfce
Change the
exec line in your
.xinitrc file to the following:
exec fvwm2
exec gnome-session
If your dotfiles are out-of-date, or if you have severely damaged your home area, you can restore the default dotfiles using a script provided by the EECS IT staff. Log onto an EECS machine and run the following command:
This script will walk you through replacing your dotfiles. Read each prompt carefully. You will be given the option to backup your existing files. In addition, update_config can sometimes attempt to preserve personal changes you have made. (This is not always possible, however.) If running
update_config causes problems and you selected to backup your files, you can restore the backup using the following command:
If you have any difficulties, please contact EECS IT Support.

Altobelli has spent years working with dermatologists and chemists to create a formula for a new skin-care system for different ages. "People in their teens need something different than I do at sixty-two years old," he says. The resulting twelve products, plus bath and body products, are displayed on clean shelves "like a shoe store, not a drug store," says Altobelli, at his new home spa store, (h2t)—shorthand for head-to-toe. Hoping to eliminate the confusion of pharmacies, the all-white boutique has a postmodern, minimalist design and a sink in the center for sampling.
From the store's clean design to the promise that you don't need a hundred products, Altobelli takes a "less is more" approach. The skin-care line provides the essentials to cleanse, exfoliate, moisturize, and protect, plus any specifics for your skin's life stage: teen, adult, or antiaging. Products ($16 to $70) can be mixed and matched so customers can get benzoyl peroxide for break-outs, wrinkle cream for the eyes, and pumpkin-and-fruit peel that smells much more dolce than dermatology.

Laura Scherer
Assistant Professor
204a McAlester Hall
Lab: Attitude and Decision Making Lab
Research Interests
My research is primarily concerned with when, how and to what advantage people use spontaneous associations and "gut feelings" in judgment. People often have spontaneous associations and feelings that color their judgments. My work has examined how these automatic processes influence evaluations of people (e.g. racial bias), and how judgments contexts can alter the activation of such bias. More recently, my research has addressed how spontaneous feelings, versus deliberative reasoning, can influence life-altering medical decisions. This latter work aims to inform the development of patient decision support tools.
Biographical Sketch
I received my PhD in social psychology in 2010 from Washington University in St. Louis. From 2010 to 2012, I was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Michigan's Center for Bioethics and Social Sciences in Medicine.

Conforming loan
A Conforming loan is a mortgage backed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac which is at or under a dollar limit set by the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight to ensure that lower-income people have access to such loans. The limit is the maximum amount Fannie or Freddie can back.
Expanded Definition
The conforming limit in 2009 remained at $417,000 for most areas of the country. A higher limit is allowed in some geographic areas with higher housing costs -- up to 150% of the regular limit in some cases in 2009. Alaska, Hawaii, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands are areas where Fannie and Freddie are allowed to back larger mortgages in 2009.
A conforming limit of $417,000 means qualifying borrowers can get a mortgage up to that amount using the preferential terms offered by the government-sponsored entities.
The conforming limit is calculated using a housing price index maintained by the director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency. This index takes into account information compiled by the Federal Housing Finance Board in its Monthly Interest Rate Survey (MIRS).
The board collects monthly data on items including interest rates on fixed- and adjustable-rate mortgages, loan terms offered by various types of lenders (commercial banks, savings associations …), and prices of different types of single-family housing (new, previously occupied …). Limits are also set for multifamily dwellings.
The conforming limit is adjusted each January, although the amount does not always change. A decrease in the housing index in the previous 12 months will mean the limit stays the same.
Information on current limits can be found on the website of Freddie Mac.

Asparagus is a delicious vegetable, but can be expensive to purchase. An asparagus bed in your kitchen garden can provide you and your family with delicious asparagus for years to come. Unlike many of the annual vegetables that we are familiar with, Asparagus is a perennial vegetable. Annual vegetables complete their lifespan in one year and will produce their fruit during that one year lifespan. Perennial vegetables live for years, and produce their crop at the same time each year.
Asparagus plants are available from different sources and can be bought as seeds or plants. Seeds can be started at a lower price, but will take several years to grow. Because asparagus plants grow slowly, it is often more rewarding to purchase the plants and transplant them into your garden.
- Many nurseries that sell food plants also offer asparagus plants that are a year or two old. They will start producing food in two years, and will produce a heavy crop in three to four years. Many of these nurseries offer all male varieties, such as Jersey Knight, which will focus on producing spears, not seeds.
- Bonnie Plants has started offering 1 year old asparagus plants in six packs for about $4 at Home Depot in the early spring. I purchased a six pack of these plants last year. While not all of the plants made it through the harsh winter, the ones that grew produces some lovely stalks. If you have the patience to wait while the plants grow, this is a cost effective alternative to some of the more expensive asparagus options.
- If you want to grow an heirloom variety, you may be able to find a wider variety by starting seed. Several seed companies carry heirloom varieties of asparagus such as Martha Washington.
Asparagus plants are planted in the garden as soon as the soil can be worked. However, it will still be cold and may be wet, so preparing your asparagus bed this fall will make it quicker and easier to plant your asparagus in the spring.
- Choose a site that gets plenty of afternoon sun and has good drainage. Asparagus do not grow as well in the shade.
- After removing weeds, work several inches of compost into the soil. If you are working with established roots, you will probably be instructed to plant the roots six inches deep, so loosen the soil down to six inches or more.
- Cover the prepared bed with two or three inches of mulch to protect the bed from weeds and keep the soil soft and easy to dig up.
Another alternative is to grow the asparagus in raised beds. Build your raised beds this fall, fill with a soft mix of compost and garden soil, and cover with a layer of mulch. When the asparagus plants are available in the Spring, it will be quick and easy to transplant the asparagus into the prepared raised beds.
In the attached video, Dave Epstein provides some great tips for preparing your asparagus bed for fall. Please enjoy this video. For more information about how to grow asparagus, see Growing Asparagus.

College Hockey:North Dakota blanks Minnesota-Duluth, 5-0, in U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame game
Sioux spoil opening of Amsoil Arena
DULUTH, Minn. — The largest crowd to ever watch a hockey game in Northeastern Minnesota enjoyed itself immensely Thursday night as the glittering $60 million Amsoil Arena opened to rave reviews before 6,732 fans.
The only drawback was No. 3-ranked North Dakota's overwhelming performance in a 5-0 non-conference victory over No. 2 Minnesota Duluth in the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame Game.
The Fighting Sioux (14-5-2) scored three goals in 74 seconds in the latter stages of the second period to extend its Division I-leading unbeaten streak to seven games (6-0-1), including five straight wins. North Dakota helped open Bemidji State's new Sanford Arena in October, and swept a road series 5-2 and 5-2.
"We had tons of people in the stands and wanted to give them a show, and we just didn't have it," said UMD senior captain Mike Montgomery. "We just weren't ready and we made mistakes. You have to take care of the puck against a good team."
Winger Mike Connolly gave UMD one of its few highlights by smacking the Plexiglass, in trying to check North Dakota's Corban Knight, with 6:25 left in the first period. Connolly missed Knight and obliterated the pane. Teams went to the locker room while the glass was cleaned up and the extra time was added to the second period.
The first of Brad Malone's two goals, on a power play midway through the first period gave North Dakota a 1-0 lead. The Fighting Sioux then hit goal pipes three times without scoring, while their goalie, Aaron Dell, didn't allow the Bulldogs to get into the game.
"That was the idea, to come in here and mess up their show," Dell said of the opening-night party.
Carter Rowney, Danny Kristo and Matt Frattin scored in short order in the last three minutes of the second period to push a 1-0 lead to 4-0. Rowney's goal, the second of his career, came at the crease on a rebound from good pressure. The next two goals came on UMD giveaways.
"When had a lot of life and enthusiasm on the bench at 1-0 and then in 1:14, North Dakota took that away from us," said UMD coach Scott Sandelin.
The Bulldogs (12-4-3) led in shots on goal 35-33, but were 0-of-7 on power plays and were shutout for the first time at home since Jean-Philippe Lamoureux won 2-0 on March 1, 1998, as North Dakota beat UMD 2-0.
Thursday's loss was the worst for UMD since an 8-3 defeat at North Dakota on Nov. 23, 2007. The teams had split earlier this season in Grand Forks, N.D. The Bulldogs were 7-1 in the first half of the season at the DECC Arena, their home the previous 45 years.
"There's no excuse for that performance at all," said Connolly. "It was embarrassing and we can't let it happen again in front of our fans. We didn't even get a goal for our fans to celebrate. There's no excuse."
UMD starting goalie Aaron Crandall was replaced to start the third period by Kenny Reiter. North Dakota, the leader in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association, finished with a Malone shorthanded goal.
UMD, 1-3-1 the last five games, heads to face Clarkson University in a series starting Monday in Potsdam, N.Y.

Federal Indictment, Trafficking Charges a 'New Low for the Gambino Family'
Reeling off charges that brought to mind recent HBO dramas and Coppola films, federal prosecutors and the FBI Tuesday announced the arrest of 14 men alleged to have played a role in a decades-long organized crime ring.
In arresting Daniel Marino, prosecutors say they have caught a major figure in the Gambino organized crime family, one of New York City's largest.
Preet Bharara, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, said at a press conference that the allegations — which include murder, human trafficking, racketeering, extortion and illegal gambling — present "a new low for the Gambino family." Bharara said all of the women used in the prostitution ring were younger than 20 and that one was only 15 years old.
"These findings illustrate that the demise of organized crime in New York is greatly exaggerated," he said.
Bharara said Marino and 12 of the others charged in the indictment have been arrested and are in custody. One remains at large.
The indictment itself wasn't a coup — John Gotti and Gambino family's ties have long been infamous in New York — but prosecutors hailed the arrest of Marino, 69, who reportedly oversaw 200 "made" — or fully inducted — mafia members. Prosecutors also allege he oversaw two murders, including the killing of his nephew Frank Hydell in 1997.
That the indictment cites crimes going back to the 1980s is striking: 10 of the 14 men charged are 35 years old or younger. Two are under 25 years old.
George Venizelos, special agent in charge of the New York FBI office, said "today's arrests show that the more things change, the more they stay the same," he said.

Bill Connors: It Be FM
It Be FM
Bill Connors (guitar)
Assembler (Pathfinder Records PTF8707-CD)
Bill Connors (guitar),
Tom Kennedy (electric bass), Kim Plainfield (drums).
Composed by Bill Connors.
Recorded: New York City, June 1987
Rating: 89/100 (learn more)
"It Be FM" is an even fusion number with a flowing theme. Connors's tone is a bit rougher than on the other cuts on the album, and he plays with more texture as well. The memorable melody line is comprised of drawn-out notes and liquid runs. Connors plays his own keyboard vamp backing on guitar synthesizer. Bassist Tom Kennedy and drummer Kim Plainfield are timekeepers on this song. The star of the show is Connors and his purposeful licks. This song is clearly not AM radio material. For that matter, I doubt it got much play on FM either. There was always that hope, though.

This reflection is taken from my book, Pro-Life Reflections for Every Day, which is available for purchase at: ProLifeReflectionsForEveryDay.org
"You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in you" — St Augustine.
Reflection: These famous words of St. Augustine remind us what the Church means by saying human life is "sacred." God has made us for himself; as human persons, we are uniquely capable of having a relationship with God. Our lives are oriented to him as our final goal and fulfillment; hence we cannot be owned by others, manipulated, or discarded.
Prayer: Lord, I rejoice in my ability to relate to you, and I honor every human being as your own special possession. Amen.

…thinking that life has passed them by
Days like today are never simple. Most of us, even if we know we are loved, have some achey corner of our lives that remains stained with loss or regret. Most of us face our days as courageously as we can, but hold, somewhere deep inside the knowledge that we were not enough for someone, not enough to keep them from leaving us, not enough for them to treat us generously, or fairly, not enough for them to love us the way we long to be loved. Days like this give us the chance to remind others how beautiful they are to us. But they may also, unintentionally serve as days that remind us love has not treated us quite as kindly as we were taught to hope it would, and that all the saccharine sweet wishes in the world will not make even one of them taste any more like the honey that is love returned.
This is for each of you who has ever experienced the horror of having been thrown away by someone. It is for those who have been lied about, stolen from, made fun of. It is for those who remain unseen, under-appreciated, frozen by fear.
Today, may you find permission to begin forgiving yourself for those achey scars you suspect make you unloveable. May you find some small measure of permission to love yourself a bit more generously, if simply by realizing that you are not at all alone in feeling so alone. And may that in turn free you to drop your guard, if only a little, to let another venture closer where they can begin to love you too.
This Is For All The Lonely People (Remember this song by America?)

The British are coming ashore in Virginia again. Queen Elizabeth arrives today to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the Jamestown settlement, the first permanent English settlement in the new world.
ABC's Yunji De Nies previews the queen's United States visit, which will include a stop at the Kentucky Derby and a state dinner with President Bush. It's been 50 years since Queen Elizabeth II visited Jamestown, where the first British colonists made their stand in the new world.
"It has been a moving experience for us to visit Jamestown," the queen said during her visit in 1957.
Now, she is back to celebrate the settlement's 400th anniversary, and along the riverbank, in just the last decade, much has changed. The last time she visited, the story behind the disappearing Jamestown was that the town was believed to have washed away. Since then, archaeologists discovered more than a million artifacts - clues about those first brave few.
"They came over to better their lives, get land, get a piece of the action. In a lot of ways, in the old world was denied to them," Archaeologist Bill Kelso said.
And so the old world visits the new. With a 35 person entourage and three tons of luggage, the 81-year old monarch does not travel light.
"The only thing I can say about the queen's wardrobe is that it's always a surprise," said Penny Russell Smith,
the queen's press secretary.
An avid fan of horse racing, the queen will attend her first Kentucky Derby this weekend, then dine with the president and first lady at a state dinner in Washington. The queen will also pay her respects at Virginia Tech.
For people hoping to see the queen in person - their best chance will be later today in Richmond, Va. She'll attend Virginia's royal welcome, a public event with live music, where thousands are expect to gather for a glimpse of her highness.
Here in Kentucky, a number of track workers at Churchill Downs attended etiquette class to avoid any social faux pas when in the queen's presence. The track's executive chef is also planning a southern-style meal featuring some Kentucky favorites.

There's been some speculation on the possibility of a spinoff/ninth season of the hit Showtime show Dexter. But producers are adamant that if actor Michael C. Hall is not on board, then there is no show.
Personally, I'd love to see at least one season of the adventures of Dexter in Alaska (or whatever far off place he is residing in). I think it is a solid place to restart and put Dexter back to doing what made the show interesting in the first place. And that's killing bad guys.
I'll be the first to admit that the series finale was a bit, what's the word…lackluster. So this is the perfect, er, best opportunity to rectify that. Not sound cynical, but this would involve forgetting bout his son, Harrison, and his girlfriend, Hannah. He clearly faked it his death so they could have a better life. Now it's time for Dexter to get back to his dark roots.
Obviously, something like this would be a few years off, since Michael C. Hall has expressed a desire to get away from death for awhile, and rightfully so. But, oh, let's say in five years he decides to ride with his Dark Passenger again, I'll be planted right in front of the TV.
So, really, here's to hoping something like eventually does come to fruition.

NVIDIA has launched their new midrange GPU, the GeForce GTX560 today and for under $200 it's quite the powerhouse. Considering most games are pushed out at 30fps or above at 1080p resolutions, it'll be quite popular. Given that the latest Steam results show that a majority of green-clad fans are running 9800-series NVIDIA hardware, it could well be time for a great value replacement!

LOS ANGELES (LALATE EXCLUSIVE) – A Kenya Moore "eviction" story was allegedly fabricated by her landlord to slander her in the news media, Moore asserts in a counterclaim answer obtained exclusively by LALATE tonight. Kenya Moore's answer asserts that her former landlord not only allegedly sought out news outlets to fabricate a story about the RHOA member but even allegedly contacted Moore's employers.
"On or about May 7, 2013, plaintiff contacted Defendant's employers by email claiming the Defendant was delinquent with her financial obligations under the Lease", Moore's answer claims. Bravo is not mentioned by name. But why did a landlord allegedly even contact Kenya's employers? The "conduct was for the purpose of defamation, harassment and intimation", Kenya's answer asserts.
Earlier this month, a single notable news outlet ran the "exclusive" on the Kenya Moore lawsuit. In their "exclusive", the website included statements from sources close to the landlord. Now Moore claims that "upon information and belief, plaintiff sought to sell this fictitious story regarding the imagery Lease conflict she created with Defendant to several media outlets and could not do so until an eviction complaint was actually filed."
So what did the landlord allegedly not like about Kenya? Moore admits that her landlord didn't like her taste in curtains. But Kenya says that is her right under the lease to choose her curtains as she so pleases. She asserts that the landlord was making "threatening contact with Defendant making complaints about cosmetic changes of curtains and paint that Defendant was well within her right as the tenant".
Documents obtained by LALATE also indicate that Moore had to send a letter to the landlord prior to the suit being filed. That letter states "Furthermore, you have contacted Ms. Moore's employers regarding the lease issue. Clearly you did so with the intent to bully, embarrass and harass Ms. Moore."
Moore has filed a 27 page countersuit asking for among other things as costs of suit, and punitive damages. Also sued this month in a separate dispute was Vicki Gunvalson of RHOC.

This exercise shows the demonstration of switching each hand on the down of each triplet. You can start on either hand left or right. As the video shows it's counted "1 trip let" "2 trip let" Etc. Start slow and gradually build your way up with the tempo. Hopefully if you're a beginner and have watched my other beginner videos, you have already bought a metronome. All metronomes especially electronic have the time signature for triplets. Try to practice this exercise the way I demonstrate it. Then when you get comfortable you can improvise. Make sure to practice slow and start with about 40 to 50 bpm.
I really like the way the exercise sounds when its played at a fast tempo.
Note: All demonstrations are considered for all levels of playing, unless otherwise noted for Beginners only.
