Ongoing Opportunities
What's your favorite social media campaign? GOOD Challenge (deadline 5/24)
Online action campaigns for social good have become more prevalent, more innovative, and more engaging. Consider the widespread participation of everyday people in campaigns like Rock the Vote, or the recent Invisible Children's Kony 2012 documentary, which made international headlines and topped 70 million YouTube hits in a single week. Some people thought the video was a huge success, while others critiqued the content and approach of the campaign.
We want to hear about the best social media campaigns out there so we can surface and share out their best practices to the GOOD community. Which uses of social media for social change have truly raised the bar and successfully catalyzed meaningful online and offline action?
We'll award $1,000 to the organization connected with the campaign that receives the most votes, and we'll interview the organizers of the top campaigns and share with the entire community their tips for using online tools to accelerate social change.
Submissions are open between April 25 and May 24 (noon Pacific Time). From May 24 to June 7, we'll open it up to public voting. Help spread the word about the most effective social media campaigns and help us choose the top campaign that we can all learn from.
Visit http://viral.maker.good.is/ for more information and full submission details.
Doing GOOD This Summer Challenge (deadline 6/8)
Summertime is here, which means longer days, spending time outside, and a break from the routine grind. We think it's a perfect time to do some GOOD in your community – and we have $5,000 to help you along! Whether you're working with underprivileged kids at a summer camp, organizing an outdoor art and music festival, or making sure your neighborhood park is clean and inviting, we want to hear about it. Tell us how $5,000 would support and expand the work you're doing this summer.
Submit a proposal between May 10 and June 8 noon Pacific Time. From June 8 to 29, we'll open it up to public voting. Rally your colleagues and friends to get behind your effort and join the GOOD community in selecting the winner.
For more information and submission details, please visit http://goodsummer.maker.good.is or contact Wendy Levine at email@example.com
Stories for GOOD Challenge (deadline 6/12)
Storytelling is part of our cultural DNA. We tell stories throughout our days to help others understand unique viewpoints, showcase diverse portraits of our communities, and inspire those around us. GOOD is asking you to tell us how you use storytelling to unite and improve your community. Propose an idea that will allow people to share their experiences, express themselves, or educate others on a certain topic.
Whether you want to tell micro-tales via post-it notes, create and distribute interviews from people in line at the coffee shop, or host a storytelling evening for children, tell us how $3,000 would help your project succeed, and you could win a grant to make it happen.
Submit a proposal between May 15 and June 12 noon Pacific Time. From June 12 to July 3, we'll open it up to public voting. Rally your colleagues and friends to get behind your effort and join the GOOD community in selecting the winner.
Email us with any questions at firstname.lastname@example.com or visit http://stories.maker.good.is/

In today's mail, I got The Best American Recipes 2004-2005. Thumbing through it at lunch, I'm looking forward to this one. They include a little bit of story/history before each recipe, which I really like. Anyone have this one? Any tried-and-trues I should start with?
Also from The Good Cook, I finally broke down and god Food Network Kitchens, Making It Easy.
Ran up to the second-hand bookstore up the street to see if they got in any more CL Annuals. Nope. But while there, I picked up Mr. Food's Simply Chocolate. I know, not exactly haute cuisine, but sometimes this is just what you're looking for. I usually love second-hand bookstores (cheaper = more books to buy!), but this one always gives me a headache. You know the kind ... books piled high in every nook and cranny, making it a challenge to see what they have. Also, a tad overpriced. I can't wait for garage sale seaon.
So, what are your new acquisitions?

Last year, FOD Finance became a victim of the Sality.gen virus. Because of the impact and scale of the attack, the news got a lot of coverage in the media.
Michaël Haussy of the Federal Public Service Finance, was willing to share the story of their security breach on the XXL about cybercrime on November 28; an initiative of SecureLink and Palo Alto Networks.
Don't be mistaken. Every organization can become a target of Cybercrime.

Without inspiration the best powers of the mind remain dormant; there is a fuel in us which needs to be ignited with sparks.
~Johann Gottfried Von Herder
Sometimes, especially when I have a difficult task at hand, I search the web for inspiration. There are an endless number of ideas available if you only look.
What projects are you working on this weekend that need that spark of inspiration to get you going? Lets inspire each other!

"A lot of women don't fully understand their health risk or fully understand about hot to be healthier in general, how to get to the health goals that they want," says Jennifer Rodriguez.
For that reason, Rush hosted a Women First Health Symposium at the MSU Riley Center. Jennifer Rodriguez is an Interventional Cardiologist at the Rush Heart Institute. She says this was an opportunity for women to become more knowledgeable about their own health.
"So we're hoping that by having a series of health fairs like this one today and some other ones that are upcoming that the women here is Meridian are going to get a little bit smarter about their own heart risk and have a better understanding about what to do to improve their life and their health," explains Rodriguez.
Now a woman may play many roles in her life: mother, friend, wife, daughter, employee, the list goes on. It's no wonder women often find themselves putting their own needs last. As Rush employees say, there are ways women can focus on their own lives.
"We tend to put ourselves last on taking care of ourselves, so this is a chance for women to find out different things that they need to focus on in their own lives," says a Rush staff member.
And one focus point that many staff members of Rush agree upon, is the importance of knowing the dangers of heart disease in women. Rodriguez stresses just how real heart disease is.
"A lot of women don't understand that cardiovascular disease still is the number one killer of women, all women, even here in Meridian, Mississippi. A lot of them don't understand what they need to do to go about finding their risk and some of them don't understand that these things can be prevented and they are treatable," says Rodriguez.
With the help of this symposium and others like it, the aim is to prevent heart disease and other health risks women have.
"The biggest shame is to loose one of our mothers, sisters, children, friends, to a very treatable and very serious disease, especially when we know we had a very good chance of preventing it."

|Real-Time Size Discrimination and Elemental Analysis of Gold Nanoparticles using ES-DMA coupled to ICP-MS
|January 22, 2013
|We report the development of a hyphenated instrument with the capacity to quantitatively characterize aqueous suspended gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) based on a combination of gas-phase size separation, particle counting, and elemental analysis. A customized electrospray-differential mobility analyzer (ES-DMA) was used to achieve real-time upstream size discrimination. A condensation particle counter (CPC) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) were employed as downstream detectors, providing information on number density and elemental composition, respectively, of aerosolized AuNPs versus the upstream size selected by ES-DMA. A gas-exchange device was designed and optimized to improve the conversion of air flow (from the electrospray) to argon flow required to sustain the ICP-MS plasma, the key compatibility issue for instrumental hyphenation. Our work provides the proof of concept and a working prototype for utilizing this construct to successfully measure (1) number-based and mass-based distributions; (2) elemental compositions of nanoparticles classified by size, where the size classification and elemental analysis are performed within a single experiment; (3) particle concentrations in both solution (before size discrimination) and aerosol (after size discrimination) phases; (4) the number of atoms per nanoparticle or the nanoparticle density.

Jonathan Cheechoo waited and waited. Finally, having forced Los Angeles goalie Erik Ersberg to commit low in Thursday's game at the Shark Tank, he fired a top-shelf shot.
Only the puck sailed a little too high.
It struck the crossbar before glancing off the far post and then ricocheting away.
Double clang.
"I gave myself a second too long because it wasn't the greatest angle in the world," Cheechoo said. "That's the way it goes sometimes. But at least I'm starting getting chances like that."
It has been that kind of season for Cheechoo. Almost. Close. Not quite. But he also is taking comfort in the fact that he has begun getting more of those opportunities in recent games.
"I know everybody else judges me on goals, but I judge myself on good scoring chances," he said. "I know the goals will come. That part hasn't left my game."
Lately, though, it has been AWOL. At 28, "Cheech" remains one of the most popular Sharks — in part because his hard-working approach compensates for a less-than-elegant skating style. But Cheechoo, the NHL's top goal-scorer just a few seasons ago, has seen his annual production slip precipitously from 56 goals to 37 to 23 to only eight so far this year.
He also has scored just once in the past 12 games. But that goal came Sunday in a loss at New Jersey where Cheechoo once again started looking like, well, Cheechoo. His missed shot against Los Angeles was only one of several near-misses recently.
"So maybe it's coming for him," said Sharks Coach Todd McLellan. "Not every shot will go in, but there was a range of games there for awhile where he didn't have many looks at the net."
The toughest thing Cheechoo has going against him, McLellan believes, is that Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy for his dazzling 56-goal season in 2005-06. That hardware can weigh heavy on a player's psyche.
"It's an incredible accomplishment, but now he also has to carry those expectations with him every year," McLellan said. "We don't expect him to score 55, 60 goals. That's not realistic. But he'll be the first to tell you that he wants to produce more."
Nobody has been more frustrated than Cheechoo.
Not that he has ever conceded the point, but injuries probably haven't helped his cause the past two years. Cheechoo had two surgeries for sports hernias before last season, which limited his ability to train. Earlier this season, he missed eight games because of an upper-body injury.
What Cheechoo, who also has 12 assists and a plus-1 rating this season, does readily admit is that he hasn't been happy with his play.
"I went through two spells last year where I could honestly look at myself and say I was doing something wrong," he said. This season, after a good start, "Something happened. I wasn't able to get back to the way I play."
The result was Cheechoo ended up on the third line, where the role is to be more a grinder than a scorer, and adjusting to skating with different players.
"We've been looking for places for him to succeed," McLellan said. "At the same time, we're not willing to break up some lines to give him that opportunity. So it's a Catch-22."
Cheechoo has spent extra time on the ice — he typically is among the last players to leave after practice — as well as watching more video of himself, searching for "something that would make my game click back."
One flaw Cheechoo identified on video was that he had stopped moving his feet like he did in the past. The result: He was slower skating through the neutral zone and chasing down loose pucks. Now, he reminds himself to keep his feet churning.
Joe Thornton, for one, has noticed something different.
"He's working real hard and when that happens, he gets his scoring chances," Thornton said. "He's got his legs going now."
What hasn't happened, at least yet, is for the pucks to start going into the net.
"But maybe I'll start getting a couple of those bounces," Cheechoo added.

Jaguar to Unveil C-X16 Sports Car Concept In Frankfurt
Jaguar Cars says it will unveil a new concept car called the C-X16 at the Frankfurt Motor Show on Sept. 13. The car maker, which is celebrating the 50th anniversary of its seminal sports car, the E-Type, says the new car is indicative of its future sports car designs.
The concept was designed by the same team, under longtime design director Ian Callum, that developed the company's current lineup including the XJ luxury flagship sedan the XF sport sedan and XK sport coupe. Jaguar says the concept is meant to set new benchmarks in design, vehicle dynamics and technology.
As the concept neared completion, Callum said, "Great Jaguar cars have always been beautiful, innovative and have looked firmly to the future. The finished C-X16 concept has the potential to do these things while retaining the ability to surprise, excite and invigorate."
Although the concept is supposed to foreshadow future vehicles, it has the shape, proportions and details that have been Callum signatures since he was designing sports cars for Aston Martin more than a decade ago.

ACUSHNET — The Board of Public Works will meet in a closed session Monday to discuss an employee harassment case.
Chairman of the Acushnet Board of Selectmen David Wojnar said he could not comment on specific details of the case but that the issue relates to a complaint made by a Department of Public Works employee claiming harassment by another employee.
"The Board of Public Works asked the Board of Selectmen for use of town counsel to investigate the claims," Wojnar said.
He added that the selectmen approved the request and the meeting at 6:30 p.m. Monday is the culmination of that investigation.
"This is the final step," he said.
Wojnar would not discuss the nature of the harassment or when the complaint was made, saying "it's obviously very sensitive information."
"There is a process that has to be followed and, it being in executive session, I can't say any more," he said.

Definition of eurypterid in English:
A giant fossil marine arthropod of a group occurring in the Palaeozoic era. They are related to horseshoe crabs, and resemble large scorpions with a terminal pair of paddle-shaped swimming appendages.
Example sentences
- Important fossil groups are the trilobites, a large group of Palaeozoic marine arthropods of uncertain affinity, and the eurypterids, Palaeozoic marine forms related to the arachnids.
- Dr Selden said the Megarachne, a giant eurypterid or sea scorpion, is closely related to a creature called Woodwardopterus, from the Carboniferous Period, found in Scotland and with relatives in South Africa.
- The most remarkable example is the three-dimensionally preserved soft tissues of the giant conodont animal Promissum pulchrum, eurypterids and other arthropods from the Upper Ordovician Soom Shale of South Africa.
Late 19th century: from modern Latin Eurypterus (genus name), from eury- + Greek pteron 'wing' + -id2.

"Revolution" Ends, "TMNT/Batman:TAS" Begins in IDW's November 2016 Solicitations
Comic Books
We continue a MONTH of I Saw It Advertised One Day! Each day this January you'll get a piece looking at advertisements in comic books over the decades that amused me for whatever reason. In each installment, we'll take a look at three ads!
Here is an archive of all installments of this feature.
Decades before "Moneyball" explained that there was a market imbalance in the way that players with high on base percentages were treated (a balance that has since been totally corrected, by the way, as teams like the Yankees and the Red Sox began jumping all over players who walked a lot), here is a Wheaties ad celebrating walks!!
My pal Lyle sent in this 1967 ad from an Archie comic where they showed the girl version of wearing a glue-on goatee/sideburns…
Reader Jamie sent in this 1951 ad that goes along with yesterday's female corset ad…
That's all for this installment! If you can think of some goofy comic book ads you'd like to see me feature here, drop me a line at firstname.lastname@example.com. Do not make suggestions in the comment section, so that they can still be a surprise for future readers! In fact, I think I'll just delete comments that contain future suggestions.
Wow, as someone who's read a lot of Bill James and read Moneyball, that ad really seems ahead of its time. Guess it wasn't as novel a breakthrough insight as I thought!
Six hair pieces? But they only show five ways to wear it (unless it just sitting there all on it's own is meant to be a use for it…). And again, send us your hair…there's just something creepy about that.
Not enough clothes these days have a detachable crotch piece.
Yes, I nominated the "Commander!" Thanks for using it Brian! I'll have to go through my golden age books and see if I can find anything really odd.
I've decided (it only took me 30 days… maybe you could do another month of these?) to use the item from each ad at the same time. So I took some video of me sitting at the breakfast table eating a bowl of Wheaties while wearing just my Commander slimming shorts and sporting my Go Go Tail. Anyone wanna see it? (I'm joking! I'm joking!) ;-P
another "corset" ad…and like the one before it it's not a corset but rather a girdle…
Comics Should Be Good accepts review copies. Anything sent to us will (for better or for worse) end up reviewed on the blog. See where to send the review copies.

Bob Huggins: "We are really excited to bring Ronnie home. I have always admired the way Ronnie has coached his teams from McNeese State to Northeastern to Duquesne, and the quality of players he has always been able to attract. Ron and I go back some 40 years when I was a player here. Obviously, he will be easily recognized and respected throughout the state of West Virginia."
Everhart: "Coach Huggins has been a mentor and big brother to me since I was a young kid. I have always admired him and have great respect for him. Coach Huggins is a Hall of Fame coach and an even better person. I'm honored to have this opportunity."
Former Duquesne Coach Ron Everhart has accepted an assistant coaching position on Bob
Huggins staff at West Virginia according to a Post-Gazette source.
Everhart, who is originally from Fairmont, W.V., was dismissed by Duquesne March 23 after six years as the head coach.
Everhart and Huggins have had a longstanding relationship. An announcement is likely to come later today.
Everhart went 99-89 in six seasons at Duquesne, and 46-50 in regular season Atlantic 10 play.
He took over the program in 2006, and is credited with bringing it back to respectability in his time at the helm.

An Event Within A Bottle
"Give me coffee for the things I can change and wine for those that I can't."
I lifted this from a social media posting a few weeks back and my goodness, it just resonates with life so well!
With wine being a male-dominated industry but a female's social and emotional companion, to hold her own as a vintner, one could conclude that she may exude a certain je ne sais quoi.
Not fully describable but she elicits a contingency that intrigues and invites.
"It's a fine line with being a woman in business and a true entrepreneur. You have to be very aggressive. You have to be A-type," says Chrishon Lampley, owner of Love Cork Screw, a wine lifestyle brand offering six varietals.
Laughing, she throws in, " … and sometimes that doesn't translate well into my personal life because it can come across as intimidating to some guys, unfortunately.
Undeniably, however, the idea to create a brand that brings together wine and good conversation with diverse audiences over various mediums is a brainchild that is well deserving of applause and she's having a ball with it all!
"I get so excited when it comes to my businesses and having my own," says the businesswoman who has been an entrepreneur since she was 16-years-old.
Growing up in Downers Grove, living in New York, Vegas and now back in Chicago, Chrishon leads an adventurous life and contributes her experiences to the Love Cork Screw brand. One that has expanded from a wine and foodie blog to an hour-long radio show she hosts with over 4-thousand listeners to wine varietals (we'll be getting to the treats shortly!) and a following that lusts for the monthly social gathering christened, ' The Tequila Tales' in which her "business husband" Isaac Paul serves as host and Lampley plays the background.
The drinks, food and conversation for Tequila Tales kicks off once a month at Nouveau Tavern and also carries the Love Cork Screw line while complementing the weekly radio show.
"I wanted Love Cork Screw to be a lifestyle brand and that's exactly what it's becoming," she ignites. "For people who listen to the radio show, they're getting a taste of me and Isaac's day-to-day banter and lives. The Cork section – I do a wine one-on-one, so I'm bringing listeners in that aren't quite comfortable with wine and wine pairings and then the 'screw' section is the wild card."
The attraction to Chrishon's brand is the quality and elegance. Everything is executed with class and discriminates against no one.
There is an art aesthetic to her marketing tactics where she is able to visually bring in twentysomethings through filmed commercials and shorts where her theme-labeled wine is center of attention.
For those who may be intimidated by wine and its experienced consumers, Chrishon consciously takes note and is sure to make the experience as easy and pleasurable as possible.
"I keep it very simple; it doesn't have to be so intricate," she begins to explain. "I don't have to use all the terms that wine connoisseurs may use. It's as easy as if you're eating a fish dish, you like something buttery with it, so a Chardonnay is buttery."
Still a bit nervous? Chrishon eases the anxiety by assuring that "it's really about what you like. It's just some wines go better with certain dishes."
Chrishon is no amateur when it comes to the wine industry. Before branching out to create Love Cork Screw, most of her following became familiar with her expertise at Three Peas Art Lounge where she served as co-owner and poured comforting reds and elegant whites to patrons.
From there, she easily became the go-to chick for wine choices whether it was for a house warming party or suggestions on what to pair with a Chicken Parmesan dish. (And yes, she often receives calls from friends as they are preparing to order their food at the restaurant.)
"I've been in the wine industry for about 15 years," she says. I've always been well-versed and studying wine – the sommelier aspect of it. So when it came to Three Peas, I was the one picking out the wines and making it make sense with what we were doing."
Love Cork Screw offers six varietals ranging in retail from $10-22 that can be found in over 22 locations such as Mariano's (Ukranian Village, Western Springs and West Loop!), Kimbark Liquors in Hyde Park, and South Loop Market, just to name a few.
The varietals include:
Good Times, Good Friends: a very simple, crisp white Pinot Grigio with pear notes; We're Moving On Up, which is a which is a top seller, is a 2005 Red Cabernet from California; Hard Knock Life is a Concord wine and brings in wine newbies with its subtle sweetness; Touch The Sky, a Niagara white wine from the Niagara grape, is another good introduction selection; In Too Deep, a Brusecco wine is a brute styled carbonated varietal which increases popularity around the holiday's; and Head Over Heels is a seductive Sweet Riesling.
"I'm considered a mid-tier (affordable, yet, good quality) wine, which is very good even for the "wine snobs". My Cabernet is a 2005 so I'm definitely in with the best of them."
There's a (social) comfort when drinking wine and having that perfect glass that fits your taste palettes. Wine brings a calm. The glass lift, sniff and swirl is the deep breath and the brim of the glass to the lips and indulge is the needed exhale.
Love Cork Screw is sexy, but not overtly so. "It's bold, edgy, and whimsical … and that's me!", says Chrishon wearing a smile.
And here's a little N'DIGO pour for all those Chrishon and Isaac Paul fans … 'Love Cork Screw' may be going live! The duo is currently shooting a pilot and taking the brand a step further.
Stay looped. And Drink Well!

Product Description
While playing the "Chaos Reigns" deck, anything is possible! Although your deck is mainly blue, red, and green, it contains spells of all five colors. Early in the game, it's important to develop your mana base by searching up new lands. Late in the game, you'll overwhelm your opponents with flying creatures. But in the middle is where all the fun is!
Your deck is centered around the cascade ability. Every time you cast a spell with cascade, you can get a random free spell off the top of your library. The bonus card could be a five-color creature, a devastating instant, or even another spell with cascade, among other options. But your chaotic tendencies don't end there! Primal Plasma can take one of three different forms. Noggle Ransacker jostles everyone's hand. Rivals' Duel can cause two creatures to fight one another. And who knows what you'll get from Last Stand? As a true agent of chaos, you'll teach everyone else to expect the unexpected.
Some of the cards in your planar deck support your five-color aspirations. Truga Jungle lets lands produce any color of mana, while Windriddle Palaces lets players play cards from other players' libraries: a situation you're uniquely adept at, since you love all lands and can cast anything. Other cards in your planar deck tilt the game on its ear even more than your deck does! Orzhova resurrects all the dead, Hedron Fields of Agadeem causes the Eldrazi to invade, and Time Distortion—believe it or not—makes the game run backwards.

Morning Sickness
What is morning sickness?
Morning sickness is nausea with or without vomiting that happens during pregnancy. It can happen any time of day. Morning sickness is most common during the first 12 to 14 weeks of pregnancy. Morning sickness usually gets better after the early part of your pregnancy and does not harm your baby.
What causes morning sickness?
The cause of morning sickness is not known. Pregnancy causes changes in your hormones that may lead to morning sickness. Morning sickness may be more likely to happen when your stomach is empty. Stress and anxiety may make morning sickness worse. Strong odors may cause your morning sickness to start, or make it worse.
How is morning sickness diagnosed?
Your caregiver will examine you and check your weight. He will ask you questions about your symptoms and the medicines that you take.
How can I manage my morning sickness?
There is no treatment for morning sickness, but there are things you can do to manage symptoms. You may need to try several things to learn what works for you. The following are safe ways for you to manage your morning sickness at home:
- Activities:
- Learn what triggers your symptoms or makes them worse.
- Take a short walk, turn on a fan, or try to sleep with the window open to get fresh air. When you are cooking, open windows to get rid of smells that may cause nausea.
- Do not smoke cigarettes. Ask other people not to smoke around you.
- Do not brush your teeth right after you eat if it makes you nauseated.
- Do not try to manage your morning sickness using any medicines, vitamins, herbs, or food supplements without talking to your caregiver first. Many medicines can harm an unborn baby.
- Nutrition:
- Avoid foods that make you feel nauseated.
- Eat small meals often throughout the day. Eat a small snack, such as crackers, dry cereal, or a small sandwich before you go to bed.
- Eat foods that are low in fat and high in protein. Examples are lean meat, beans, turkey, and chicken without the skin.
- Eat bland foods such as dry toast, dry cereal, plain pasta, white rice, and bread. Other bland foods are bananas, apples, rice, and popcorn without butter. Avoid spicy, greasy, and fried foods.
- Keep crackers or dry toast at your bedside. Before you get out of bed in the morning, eat some crackers or dry toast. Get out of bed slowly, because sudden movements could cause you to get dizzy and nauseated.
- Drink liquids between meals instead of with meals. Wait at least 30 minutes after you eat to drink liquids. Drink small amounts of liquids often throughout the day. Ask how much liquid you should drink each day.
- Eat foods that contain ginger, or drink ginger ale. Ginger may help to decrease nausea and vomiting.
When should I contact my caregiver?
Contact your caregiver if:
- You vomit more than 3 times every day.
- You cannot keep any food or liquid down.
- You begin to lose weight.
- You have a fever.
- You have questions or concerns about your condition or care.
When should I seek immediate care?
Seek care immediately or call 911 if:
- You have signs of dehydration. Examples are dark yellow urine, dry mouth and lips, dry skin, and urinating less than usual.
- You have severe stomach pain.
- You feel too weak or dizzy to stand up.
- You see blood in your vomit or bowel movements.
Care AgreementYou have the right to help plan your care. Learn about your health condition and how it may be treated. Discuss treatment options with your caregivers to decide what care you want to receive. You always have the right to refuse treatment. The above information is an educational aid only. It is not intended as medical advice for individual conditions or treatments. Talk to your doctor, nurse or pharmacist before following any medical regimen to see if it is safe and effective for you.

One of the premier sprints coaches in the world, Associate Head Coach Ken Harnden was and continues his duties as FSU's Director of Sprints, Hurdles & Relays. The former Olympian, whose sprinters have been the cornerstone of the Seminoles' National Championship runs on the men's side, has oversight of both the men's and women's programs in his specialty areas.
Passionate and fiercely competitive, Harnden's fingerprints are all over the Seminoles' success. Of the 35 NCAA event champions in program history, Harnden has directly coached 19 of those. Not surprisingly, his work has not gone without recognition.
Sprint dominance has been a familiar refrain with the Seminoles under Harnden's watchful eye, dating to Brian Dzingai, his first All-American in 2004, through Dentarius Locke, who won the 2014 NCAA Indoor 60-meter dash title and posted his second consecutive NCAA 100-meter silver medal.
Harnden has been instrumental in developing collegiate 200 record-holder Walter Dix as well as world- and national-class stars like Ricardo Chambers, twins Kevin and Jonathan Borlee, Charles Clark, Drew Brunson, Michael Ray Garvin, Brandon Byram and most recently, James Harris and Locke. Their talents span a wide range from the short sprints and 110-meter hurdles to the 400 dash.
In 2012, Harnden collected his third men's National Assistant Coach of the Year honor from the USTFCCCA after the Seminoles advanced a trio of individual sprinters and a 4x100 relay team to the NCAA Outdoor Championships. From that group, Maurice Mitchell claimed his second consecutive 200-meter title and teamed with Kemar Hyman, Horatio Williams and Stephen Newbold for a school-record run (38.57) in the 4x100. Collectively, that foursome produced 33 of FSU's 38 points, which was good for a fourth-place team finish.
That performance came a year after the Seminoles came within one point of the 2011 national title as Ngoni Makusha, already a national champion long jumper, won the 100-meter dash in an NCAA Championship meet and collegiate record time of 9.89. Mitchell won the 200 title, then teamed with Makusha on FSU's victorious 4x100 relay team. Makusha would go on to claim The Bowerman Award, presented to the nation's top collegiate track & field athlete.
At the 2012 Olympic Games in London, sprinters Mitchell, Hyman and the Borlee twins made up two-thirds of the Seminole men who competed. In all, Harnden has worked with 12 athletes who have competed in the last four Olympic Games.
Since 2004, Harnden-coached athletes have amassed 84 All-American honors, including the 19 NCAA championship titles. At the conference level, Seminoles under his watch have won 65 Atlantic Coast Conference championships, contributing significantly to the Seminoles' team dominance over the last 11 seasons.
His influence on FSU's record holders is undeniable. Seven of the top 10 men's times in the 100, 200 and 400, all 10 of the fastest 4x100 relay marks and five of the top 4x400 relay standards were produced by Harnden's athletes.
A two-time Olympian for his native country of Zimbabwe (1996, 2000), a three-time participant - twice a finalist - in the 400-meter hurdles at the World Championships, Harnden also won a bronze medal Commonwealth Games in 1998.
He was a two-year letter-winner at the University of North Carolina, winning the 1995 NCAA title in the 400 hurdles – Harnden still holds the Tar Heel record - and was a member of the winning 4x400m relay team.
Harnden has been a part of the Seminole fabric since he arrived in Tallahassee in late 1995 to train post-collegiately under former Seminole head coach Terry Long. He was elevated to volunteer assistant before joining the staff full-time in 2004.
In addition to his coaching duties, Harnden serves as FSU's primary recruiter, having developed tremendous resources throughout the world. Track & Field News ranked the 2014 FSU men's signing class as the best in the nation, for the second time in three years. The Seminole women's team has also scored a pair of top 10 classes in the last three years.
Harnden and his wife Betsy have two young sons, Garry and Pierce.

By Tim HippsFebruary 17, 2009
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Army News Service, Feb. 17, 2009) - Misfortune more than rained on Ryan Newman's parade as the defending race champion finished 36th in the Daytona 500 Feb. 15 while making his debut in the No. 39 U.S. Army Racing Chevrolet.
After wrecks claimed Newman's primary and backup cars during a Gatorade Duel 150 on Thursday and Daytona 500 practice on Saturday, the U.S. Army Racing Team driver had to climb behind the wheel of team owner Tony Stewart's Bud Shootout backup car for Sunday's 51st running of The Great American Race.
To make matters worse, Newman's spin on Saturday - caused by a blown right rear tire - collected drafting partner Stewart's primary car and forced the boss into a backup ride for Sunday's race, forcing both drivers to start from the rear of the 43-car field.
"The right rear tire exploded in the middle of (Turns) one and two," Newman said. "It gave me 100 yards of sign that it might. It started the very, very slightest vibration. I was getting ready to come in and it was too late. It was just unfortunate. We took out my teammate.
"It is a bad situation. I don't really want to be in it. It is hard to talk about. We will do what we can with this U.S. Army Chevrolet."
Newman's troubles actually began during practice on Wednesday that forced his team to change engines, which cost him a starting spot in the front row of the second Gatorade Duel 150-mile qualifying race for the Daytona 500. He again was relegated to the rear of the field.
"It's just been a tough week for the U.S. Army Team," Newman said. "We had multiple issues to deal with, including two wrecks before we even started today's race. But this is the Soldiers' team and we'll come back fighting even harder next week."
During the Gatorade Duel, Newman got three wide and tried to make a pass on the low side but was bumped from behind by David Reutimann's No. 00 Toyota, which sent Newman's car spinning directly into the outside wall.
"Wrong place, wrong time," Newman said after retreating from trackside, where he gestured toward Reutimann after climbing from the mangled car. "The U.S. Army Chevrolet was good. We were making our way to the front and taking our time. I was patient the whole race.
"Reutimann is a good name for him because he root the man right out of the way and bounced me right up into the wall and that was the end of our day."
Newman was not injured, but the Army team had to work overtime to get the backup car ready. Two days later, they were forced to prepare a third car, from which little was expected.
"This will exemplify what it means to be U.S. Army strong," Newman said.
In the Daytona 500 on Sunday, Newman, who had tire problems throughout the week, pitted to change the right front during the first caution of the race after Aric Arimola spun the No. 8 Chevrolet on Lap 9. During another pit stop on Lap 71, Newman's crew had jack issues that left him two laps down.
"We were patient in the beginning because we needed to get a feel for the car and the track," Newman said. "We were pretty good until we had to come in for a loose wheel. Then we had a miscue on pit road. We fell two laps down and it was a struggle from that point on."
On lap 125, Dale Earnhardt Jr. got into the back of Brian Vickers, who blocked him below the yellow line, igniting a melee that collected 10 cars. Newman shot through the wreckage unscathed and looked like he might have a fighting chance to gain a lap.
"That's the first wreck I missed this week," Newman joked over the radio to his crew.
Five laps later, Newman was drafting Earnhardt's rear bumper on the inside line alongside the frontrunners in a desperate effort to get a lap back, but their pursuit was futile as the impending rain quickly approached the 2.5-mile tri-oval.
"The rain obviously hurt us because we needed more time if we were going to get those laps back," Newman said. "We knew we had our backs to the wall, but still felt we could have a good run today. The guys worked hard to get this car ready in a short time. I am so proud of them."
Newman also tipped his cap to Matt Kenseth, who won the rain-shortened race.
"I want to congratulate Matt Kenseth," Newman said. "He's a good friend and I am happy for him. I know what he's feeling right now."

Mullan Road Letterbox
Still in place. July 2013
Travel to the 4th of July Pass in North Idaho. Take exit 28 off of I-90 at the top of the pass.
Follow the signs to the Mullan Tree Recreational Area. During the summer travelling season the gate is open, so you can drive down to the Mullan Tree Interpretative Trail.
During the off season the gate is closed , but it is a short walk down to a second lower parking area. There is a statue of John Mullan at this lower parking lot and the trail head
for a nice walk. Start your search at the beginning of the Interpretative Trail. It is a 20 minute walk in a loop with history information plaques placed along the way. A very nice walk in a cool place. As you walk along be sure to read the plaques. The history is rich here. Find the plaque that tells you of the type of animals used along this Mullan Road during the gold rush days. When you find this plague. Stand by it and then take 8 steps down the trail. After these 8 steps, stop and turn to your right. You should see a fallen tree. It has been cut because it fell across the trail. It's base and root ball are still in evidence. Take a look at the hole created by the root ball when this tree fell. The letterbox is hidden there. Please replace all items exactly as you find them in this letterbox. Hope you enjoy your time here and the find. God bless.

Posted: April 30, 2013Shepard was diagnosed with B-cell ALL on August 23rd, 2011; after his parents noticed that he was not his typical self and had a slightly bloated stomach. After a call to his pediatricians office, his parents decided to take him to the ER. He was quickly admitted and the hospital staff started running tests to see if they could pin point what might be causing his symptoms. After five hours at the hospital, Shepard was discharged with no insight into what might be causing his issues. After his trip to the hospital, Shepard was mostly back to normal but continued to have bouts of fatigue and stomach pain. On the 22nd, he woke up in extreme pain and his pediatrician instructed his parents to take him to the hospital. After more tests were run, doctors noticed an abnormality in his blood that looked like leukemia. A month after his second birthday, the diagnosis was confirmed and Shepard began his journey with leukemia. This journey would include nearly nine months of intense chemotherapy followed by maintenance for over two years. While the journey has not been easy for Shepard, his resilience has been incredible. Though he is only half way through treatment, he and his family are confident that he will beat leukemia. This year, Shepard and his family are raising awareness for children's cancer as Ultimate Hike Heroes. To learn more about the Ultimate Hike and how you can join the fight against children's cancer, visit www.ultimatehike.org

The Associated Press
Travelers line up at the Northwest check in area at Portland International Airport in Portland, Ore., Thursday. For the second time in a little more than a year, a glitch involving one of the two centers that handle flight plans for the Federal Aviation Administration caused widespread delays and cancellations.
GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) - In reaction to the terrorism attempt Friday on Northwest Airlines, the Department of Homeland Security has put additional screening measures into place particularly for international flights.
Here at Grand Junction Regional Airport, an employee at the car rental company National Alamo says he thinks he's been seeing more action than normal. But in other airports across the United States, some holiday travelers haven't noticed any difference in security.
"When I came in this morning, you know I open the doors and everything, I looked up and saw a couple of TSA agents coming down. But I didn't know if they were just going home. But I did notice they were looking around," says Eliot Higgs, National Alamo customer service representative.
"Same as usual. You remove your shoes. Jacket in the bin. Purse, laptops. The same experience I've had sine 9-11," says Kristine Carlin, returning from San Diego.
The government ha been vague about how they will heighten security, but some airlines have already posted their new rules on their web sites.
American Airlines says TSA has ordered new measures for flights departing from foreign locations to the United States, including mandatory screening of all passengers at airport gates during the boarding process.

The Death of Masculinity (Part 3)
In response to comments on my last post, I would like to add that, yes, of course, all Christ-like qualities apply to both men and women. I see both men and women have the ability to be excellent leaders. I see men and women as absolute equals. I am sorry if I implied something different than this by not coming out and saying it directly.
Men and women can and should be heirs of confidence. This is an area I have needed to grow in. My lack of confidence in the past has led to many sorrows. I have also learned that there is a big difference between confidence and arrogance. Men and women need confidence and the strength that comes from it. But the confidence I need is in different areas than the confidence my wife has.
I have seen women be just as assertive as men, but I have also seen men be more aggressive and violent than women. Women are capable of aggression and violence, but they are not as inclined to it as men. To illustrate, the incarceration rate of men in prisons in the United States is 15 times that of women (1,316,495 to 92,785 in 2003). That has to tell us something.
Just the other night I was reading with my grandson about women pirates such as Anne Bonny and Mary Read. I am sure that women like danger and adventure just like men, but these were the only two women convicted of piracy during the 18th century.
So there are distinct differences in the way men and women are wired. We share needs and desires and tendencies, but we express them differently. The balance of testosterone and estrogen that God put into our bodies has an effect on us. I think I am right in saying that while the challenges and temptations that men and women face are not 100 percent unique, they are unique in some ways.
Because of this, I am calling more attention to men because that is where I see the greatest need for improvement. And I am starting with myself.
Women likewise have need for improvement, but after spending five years talking to hundreds of men, women and couples, privately and publicly, I see very distinct patterns and trends. This also comes after counseling with other bishops, especially after conferring with bishops of singles wards.
Here is where I see some other fundamental differences.
Yes, both men and women can be selfish, but in my experience, women, especially those who have children under their care, are much less inclined to be selfish than men.
Another example is that in my years as bishop, I spoke to many men, young and old, about viewing pornographic images, but I never had occasion to speak to a single woman about this issue, except in relation to a husband or a child. Men tend to get caught up in visual pornography and women can get ensnared by reading pornography in the form of romantic fiction, but still, that was never an issue that came up in a single interview with a woman—I am talking about hundreds of interviews with women. I am not saying that visual or written pornography is not or can't be an issue with women, but I have never personally seen it.
I know women who like video games, but I see a tendency among men, especially young men and boys, to get absorbed in them, and, unfortunately, in violent ones. I think this relates to the citation above about the incarceration rates of men over women. Testosterone, unchecked, can lead us men into sorrow and trouble.
Likewise, both men and women can exercise unrighteous dominion, but I see more of a tendency of this error in men than in women. Both men and women need to lead out in righteousness, but I must acknowledge the prophetic counsel in the Proclamation on the Family that men are called by God to preside over, provide for and protect their wives and children. This is a huge responsibility which we men too often don't take seriously enough, and the trends I see are undermining this.
Men also can be very narrowly focused, where women often have a broader focus. Do you know one of the reasons why? Women have 40 percent or more connections between the hemispheres of their brains than men! Their left and right hemispheres can talk back and forth more glibly than men. I believe this is one of the reasons why women can be so much more perceptive of others' feelings and motives, especially in dealing with children.
Also in my experience, I feel that women are more readily inclined to remain faithful, though in recent years I have seen more and more women being led astray into illicit affairs, I am very sad to say.
There are always exceptions and unique cases, but, generally speaking, there are some fundamental physical and emotional differences in men and women. Also, I focus on men because that is where I see a great need.
Are women better than men? No. Are women more important than men? No. Are men more capable of righteousness or leadership than women? No. Are there differences in men and women? Yes. Are their needs and challenges different? Yes, not completely, but yes.
One of the greatest issues I see is the loss of footing men are experiencing in modern culture. And I think because of that, we have a tendency to back into a cave of confused self-gratification rather than using our God-given gift of masculinity to stand up boldly, be counted among the sons of God, lead our families in righteousness, and follow Christ with all our hearts.
That is the challenge I am taking up: to become, over time, the father, husband, breadwinner and leader God put me on the earth to be. No wrong exits. No excuses. I want to be the man God wants me to be.

Mike, I am the "Anonymous" that commented on your Masculinity Post (Part 1). I have started at least a dozen or so comments but they have all ended up in my word program being a few pages long! Hmmm. . .I don't think that will work for just posting a comment!ReplyDelete
I can say that I agree with you and see the trends, and unfortunately, experience it a little in my own marriage. I'm out on a limb with you.

This topic is more relevant now more than ever.
Our current media driven culture seems to belittle, marginalize and be outright hostile to traditional male patterns of behavior. Boys quickly pick up on this, and many times are left with little more than inward looking pursuits like social media, video games, etc.
I can't think of an effective way to counter this, as most LDS male "celebrities" (especially popular youth speakers) seem to be the ultimate "easy going" types you mentioned.
Public Education has been thoroughly feminized in this country. The generally more quiet and controlled female behavior patterns have become the standard for both genders. I can understand many boys and young men getting fed up with this unnatural situation over time, which explains declining male enrollment rates in higher education.
Divorce and Illegitimacy rates are now such that a very large percentage of boys have no male role models of any type in the home or actively engaged in their lives. This is increasingly true in the church, as well.
Anti-male behavior is seen as "harmless fun." I saw a teenage girl recently wearing a t-shirt that said "Better than a Boy." Males are constantly portrayed as buffoons and simpletons on television sit-coms, movies, etc. Once again, boys pick up on this with little to counteract it.
So many young men play it safe, and just "hang out" with female friends.
Apparently many women want take charge guys with traditional masculine traits.
What are these ladies doing to encourage the development and nurturing of these traits?
This situation is much more complex, and deeper than "guys are too lazy to change," or "he just wants me to be his Mom."
I am interested in Comments folks may have on these issues.
I agree that masculinity is marginalized and has nearly become a bad word associated with negative things. In regards to unrighteous dominion, however; my experience sees many women acting in this regard. They are not angry, physically controlling and abusive like many men who do this, but they are emotionally controlling, and minimalize mens abilities and strengths. So it works both ways for men and women who want to raise themselves above the other gender. I enjoyed your comments--thanks.ReplyDelete
I do agree that there is something happening in our society that results in many men to disengage. Is it because there are so many more jobs that do not require physical strength? Is it because there are many more men that were raised without a father?ReplyDelete
I agree that one answer is for us to step up and model masculinity. I know I need to more.

Here is a right to life issue. We've been hearing a lot in recent weeks about the dangers of toys from China that are contaminated with lead. But the true dimensions of the toxic threat against our children are of far greater magnitude. And the threat isn't made in China, but right here in the USA.

EDITORIAL: Shopping & dropping
"Black Friday" has become a peculiar American institution.

Dear CL Moderator
For some days now, when I sign on to this website, I get a Security Alert notice that says:
The idenity of this web site or the integrity of this connection cannot be verified.
The name on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the site.
Do you want to proceed?
Then I have to click YES in order to get on this BB.
Can you tell me what this means and how to get rid of it?
