Distance Learning
Through a generous grant from the John. Marie, and Joseph Whalen Foundation, the diocese has obtained the equipment and software for distance learning capabilities. Currently we are using Media Site – a tool for recording and storing various types of presentations: events, programs, trainings, etc., which can later be viewed "on demand." Some presentations are available to the general public; others are password protected since they may be part of a particular formation or training program. Live streaming of events, programs, trainings and other presentations is also possible.
Media Site allows viewers to "attend" an event, either live or after-the fact. Viewers experience the event as if they were present. There is minimal editing possible. This makes such presentations different from those one might see on a commercially produced DVD. The value of our distance learning capability is that we can record and store presentations that directly relate to our own diocesan offices, agencies, and programs. In addition, people throughout our 14 county diocese can be part of such presentations where previously distance and scheduling conflicts may have precluded their participation. In addition, we hope that in the future this technology will allow us to supplement an array of learning environments in digital and interactive web-based formats.
Below you will find links to some of our recorded presentations to date. More are forthcoming!
Mediasite recordings are currently best viewed using Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser and a high speed internet connection. Click here to view the requirements for viewing Mediasite Presentations
Located in the dioceses of Rochester and Albany, St. Bernard's offers three masters degree programs in theology as well as a range of certificate programs, lectures, workshops, and continuing education opportunities. Our goal is to integrate classroom learning with personal, spiritual and professional development and open our students to a fuller grasp of the deeper meanings of the Catholic faith tradition.
Our students bring to the classroom varied backgrounds and experiences and a wide range of learning goals. Most are part time students occupied during the daytime with jobs and other responsibilities. We offer flexible scheduling and evening classes in order to help them successfully pursue their educational, professional and spiritual goals.
Today's students will not only be leaders in tomorrow's parishes, religious agencies and service providers, but will live the Catholic faith as active participants in the life of the church and in its service to the world.

When I first learned about the exhibition Voices & Visions and took a look at some of the names involved in the project, I geeked out a little bit. Just as there are celebrity architects like Moshe Safdie (who designed the Skirball) and Frank Gehry, there are celebrity graphic designers like Milton Glaser (of the famed I <3 NY logo), Ivan Chermayeff—perhaps best known for designing, together with Tom Geismar, television network logos like the current iteration of the NBC peacock—and Pentagram Partner Paula Scher. All of them have poster designs on display in the exhibition. Scher designed, among other things, the identity for Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York, where I worked as an intern and assistant on web projects before I joined the Skirball. Because of this connection, I was especially interested to see her Voices & Visions poster design.
For Voices & Visions, the creative brief was straightforward: The Harold Grinspoon Foundation sought out contemporary Jewish artists to visually interpret the words of great Jewish thinkers. Each artist was to create a thought-provoking poster based on the Jewish text for a universal audience. As Doris Berger put it, the series "highlights humanistic values that are rooted in Judaism." They are values and ideas we can all relate to, whether we are Jewish or not. The creative director of the project, ad-man and designer Arnold Schwartzman, was the Foundation's connection to all of these amazing graphic designers.
The thinker for Scher's poster? Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel. One of the few in his family to narrowly escape the Nazi invasion of Poland, he was a great philosopher and writer who stood up for spiritual freedom, civil rights, and an end to war. In his book The Prophets, Heschel describes prophets not simply as individuals who can foresee the future, but as "the men whose image is our refuge in distress, and whose voice and vision sustain our faith." Heschel could have easily used this definition not only to describe himself, but to describe the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. During the Civil Rights Movement, Heschel courageously supported King and marched by his side to Selma in 1965. [Audrey's Museum Store at the Skirball carries a great children's book about Heschel and King's common purpose, entitled As Good As Anybody.]
The quotable quote? The words quoted on Scher's poster comes from an interview with Heschel on his participation in the Civil Rights Movement. Recalling the historic act of protest, Heschel described, "For many of us the march from Selma to Montgomery was both protest and prayer. Legs are not lips, and walking is not kneeling. And yet our legs uttered songs. Even without words, our march was worship. I felt my legs were praying."
The poster? Scher's design is simple yet striking—bold text, a silhouetted photo, and lots of white space. The crop on Heschel's legs is a fresh, modern take at the now-iconic image of Heschel walking arm-in-arm with King and fellow activists. How do you take an old photo and make it more visually interesting? Scher's crop is like the two-dimensional equivalent of the Ken Burns effect—a pan-and-zoom to add movement to still photos, a technique we've become familiar with in Burns' documentaries. Scher's offsetting of the Heschel image in the different color passes of the printing process (that is, cyan-magenta-yellow-black) gives his legs the illusion of motion—they look almost like they're vibrating—which to me connotes the spiritual: his march is worship, his legs are praying. The design communicates Heschel's words in a visual way.
What I really love about Voices & Visions is that it gets to the heart of good design and communication. While in school and working at Jazz at Lincoln Center, I learned—and have ever since operated lived and worked by—the philosophy that good design is always about both form and function, never sacrificing the one for the other.
The Voices & Visions posters both express and invite expression, just as the protest posters in Decades of Dissent did during the 1960s and 1970s. For me, Voices and Visions together with Decades of Dissent and Free to be U.S. have really gotten me thinking about our own voices and visions and how we use them, whether it be through visual art, the written word, or otherwise.

Xin, QC; Woodcock, CE; Liu, JC; Tan, B; Melloh, RA; Davis, RE (2012). View angle effects on MODIS snow mapping in forests. REMOTE SENSING OF ENVIRONMENT, 118, 50-59.
AbstractBinary snow maps and fractional snow cover data are provided routinely from MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer). This paper investigates how the wide observation angles of MODIS influence the current snow mapping algorithm in forested areas. Theoretical modeling results indicate that large view zenith angles (VZA) can lead to underestimation of fractional snow cover (FSC) by reducing the amount of the ground surface that is viewable through forest canopies, and by increasing uncertainties during the gridding of MODIS data. At the end of the MODIS scan line, the total modeled error can be as much as 50% for FSC. Empirical analysis of MODIS/Terra snow products in four forest sites shows high fluctuation in FSC estimates on consecutive days. In addition, the normalized difference snow index (NDSI) values, which are the primary input to the MODIS snow mapping algorithms, decrease as VZA increases at the site level. At the pixel level. NDSI values have higher variances, and are correlated with the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) in snow covered forests. These findings are consistent with our modeled results, and imply that consideration of view angle effects could improve MODIS snow monitoring in forested areas. (C) 2011 Elsevier Inc.

While we can't change our genes, we can change how our jeans (and bikini briefs) fit -- at least a little bit. Here are a few ideas for giving your booty a lift:
Take a Lunge – It's no surprise lunges are on this list. They're great for toning up our legs and backsides and you can feel the burn in no time. Just make sure you step out far enough so your bent knee (at a 90 degree angle) is right over your toe — but not past it. Too easy? Pick up a pair of weights and shoot for three sets of 15-20 reps using the heaviest weight to handle in good form. And make sure to take a 60-second break between reps, advises Virgin.
Mix things up – There are no hard-and-fast rules for performing strength-training exercises. "You can do all three sets of one exercise before moving on to the next, or do a circuit where you perform one set of each exercise and then repeat the circuit three times," says Virgin. The only non-negotiable rule: Take a rest day in between butt-busting workouts.
Don't ditch the cardio – While toning up is critical, you still have to get your heart rate pumping. After all, if there's a layer of flab over your glutes, it doesn't matter how many lunges you do.
According to Virgin, if you follow these steps, you should see some serious firming within a few weeks. Heading to the beach tomorrow? That's what boy shorts and sarongs are for!

Interview with Ben Chavis
So what happens when you see Coleman Young walk out? What do you think?
Well, first of all again, ah, when I saw Coleman Young attempt to lead the Michigan delegation from the convention, I had the same thought when I saw Diggs trying to gavel down in the conven--in the beginning of the convention, at the beginning of the convention, who also, incidentally, was from Michigan. I think that, ah, the role of the Michigan delegation at the convention, ah, was questionable. Even from the very beginning. But, ah, we were so glad that there were a lot of sisters and brothers--first of all, the whole delegation did not walk.

Samsung Refrig. Cools But Makes Loud Popping Noise
Model Number: RB2155SH Brand: Samsung Age: 1 - 5 years
Ever since we've had this Samsung refrigerator (owned for 2 years), we heard strange popping and cracking sounds at various times of the day and night. While it was under warranty, I contacted Samsung and was told that the noises were normal and would subside over time. They never did. However, during the past couple of weeks, the loud popping sounds have gotten much worse, yet the frig cools fine and no other problems have been noted. I searched all over the internet for an explanation and I found that many people have the identical popping noise issue with different Samsung models. And many repair techs have thought that the problem lies with the ice dispenser - but my model doesn't have an ice dispenser. Since the very loud popping sound is recent, I believe something new is happening and would like to fix the problem before whatever is going wrong goes completely bad. Does anyone have any recommendations?

I purchased a Samsung Fridge Aug 2010 at first the fridge was running well but then 3 months down the track it started to make popping noises, crackling and little explosion like noises. In the beginning I heard it only at night like a tap tap tap but as time went on it became louder and more frequent.
I have had the technician come out and put a report to Samsung but they didn't seem to call me back so after two weeks of me calling them every second day they wanted me to record the popping noises.
I did explain however that woudl be difficult to do as it pops often but unexpectadely. I don't know what the out-come will be but I'm NOT HAPPY because it's very annoying that it pops all day long. I can hear it now as we speak it does this all day long.
Does anyone know what it is and why is it that Samsung aren't helpful?
Thanking you
Not Happy
Nothing has Changed
Since my previous post, nothing has changed at all. The popping sounds continue and I have absolutely no faith in Samsung in acknowledging nor fixing the problem. Seems that the popping sounds are inconsistent, that is, sometimes louder and more frequent than other times. But regardless, the sounds should not be and Samsung should repair the problem. Based upon my unhappy experience with our Samsung refrigerator, and others having the same issue, and the lackadaisical customer support, I would never purchase a Samsung product ever again. I like the appearance of Samsung products and their exterior functions, but not their customer support. Lastly, about 14 months after we had the refrigerator, and it being out-of-warranty, we noticed that the unit would stop working. Upon unplugging and re-plugging the power cord, we found that the unit would start again. Ultimately, we had the unit repaired and was advised that the two thermostats needed replacement. In the 40 years I've owned a refrigerator, this is the first time I've ever had to repair one; another reason I would never purchase a Samsung product again. I personally thing the company has become too large to support their products properly
I might have the same kind of noise going on with mine as well
our model # is RF217ACRS . Hopefully these will just last a long time .
Good luck and if you ever find a cure will you please post it as I sure will.
New Samsung refrigerator makes unusually loud shotgun sounds, wakes us up at night!
Got fridge from Lowe's mid June. Noticed LOUD popping noises day and night. Called Samsung. They said it was "normal" ice maker noises that will 'get better' with time. NOT. Got huge runaround from Samsung "customer care". Finally after many calls to them, they assigned a work order number and said to call A&E to set an appointment for repair. A&E sent a local guy who couldn't figure out what was going on. He called someone who gave him a long technical explanation. Bottom line is, it's a design flaw. Something about the steel tubing with freon packed tightly inside, and when the condenser unit gets hot it quickly expands with the loud shotgun sound. It is NOT fixable, it is a design flaw that will never 'get better'. I called Lowe's and they told me to come pick out any other fridge and they'll take this one back even though it's over the 30 day return policy. Noticed the sticker inside said it's "Made in Mexico". Whatever happened to Made in America?
Wakes me up at night!
I had called Best Buy's Geeksquad service out three times about this. On the last time I recorded the sound. He called Samsung support and they said it was normal.
The work order stated "CALLED SAMSUNG AND DESCRIBED SOUND THAT CLIENT HAD RECORDED. SAMSUNG SAYS THIS IS DUE TO THE INCREASED PRESSURE OF NEW COOLANT AND LARGE CAVITY AND THIN INSULATION. UNIT CHECKS OK. INFORMED CLIENT."
This can't be normal! It often wakes me up at night and when we have guests over they look at us and say "what the heck was that?" We love our Samsung fridge .... If only it didn't make loud hammer sounds. Looking into what we can do to get something else. This is totally ridiculous for a brand new unit. And now after looking at the reviews, everyone is having the same problem.
UPDATE: After 6 months of dealing with this sound, BestBuy has agreed to come tomorrow and swap out the unit! Hopefully the new one won't do this sound too. I'll let you know.

The wings of this butterfly have all the same colors as in the flower garden. With the sun backlighting the wings they appear to be stained glass windows. I waited for over an hour as this beautiful butterfly jumped from flower to flower. Finally it landed so close that I had to back away to capture this image.

Best Oscar Dresses Of All Time
Jennifer Lopez
At the height of Bennifer fever, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck arrived hand in hand at the 2003 Oscars and while the relationship might not have lasted, the fashion moment endured, with J-Lo racing to the top of the best dressed lists in this uncharacteristically demure Valentino gown. The stunning asymmetric dress was inspired by a design Mr Valentino had created for Jackie Onassis back in 1967. La Lopez was reportedly obsessed by the former First Lady, and her passion paid off in the style stakes, leading to one of the chicest looks in her style history. (2003)

US extends Myanmar sanctions
Submitted by Jamie Williamson on Sat, 05/15/2010 - 04:01
Washington, May 15 - The US has extended its sanctions on Myanmar for another year, the White House said.
"Because the actions and policies of the government of Burma (Myanmar) continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the US," the sanctions imposed on Burma will continue in effect beyond May 20, it said in a statement Friday.
The US accuses Myanmar of committing "large-scale repression of the democratic opposition". The sanctions included prohibition on new investment, Xinhua reported. (IANS)

Widget library OSS?Posted Monday, 16 March, 2009 - 14:43 by objarni
|Golem 3D Model Editor

Jump to:
I think your widgets look awsome!
Do you have any plans on releasing that part of the project as open source software? It would be really cool to have an alternative to Windows.Forms when developing tools for games. After all, mono's WinForm-implementation isn't 100% reliable, IME.
There is a plan for releasing the user interface library that Golem3D is using as open source. There are still a few things that need to be finished up before it would be at a point that I would feel comfortable putting it out there. I will look into what needs to be finished and make a separate project with tasks to be done. I have a couple of ideas for a name of the library. I would be interested if anyone had any suggestions of their own.
Great news ... But don't be too hesitant, after all, OpenTK has been open source for a long time, and I think it is of great benefit to have so many "eyes" on the project, the quality is raising so to speak.
The same would hold true for Spooks (or whatever you're gonna call the UI lib!).

Using your mobile phone as a wireless modem
Bluetooth with GPRS
If your mobile phone contract includes GPRS mobile Internet service,
you can use a Bluetooth phone as a wireless modem for your Linux
portable computer.
If you remember the days when com-
puters connected to the Internet
through telephone lines, you might
be wondering whether it is possible to
use an Internet-enabled cellphone or
PDA as a wireless Internet connection
for a roaming laptop computer. This arti-
cle describes a technique for connecting
a Linux portable computer to the Inter-
net through a Bluetooth connection to a
mobile phone. Of course, this procedure requires a mobile phone service plan
that comes with some form of Internet
The example configuration described
in this article assumes Internet access
through General Packet Radio Service
(GPRS), a mobile networking architec-
ture supported by many wireless provid-
ers. A similar approach may also work
for other service types. If your service
plan provides Internet access through
an alternative method, consult your
provider for details and adapt the proce-
dures described in this article for your
own environment.

Changing The World
Stop Hunger Now has been fulfilling its commitment to end hunger since 1998. Every year, with the help of our hands-on volunteers, we provide millions of nutritious meals and other life-saving aid to children and families all over the world. The collaboration between Stop Hunger Now staff, volunteers and in-country partners make our efforts a growing success every year in our mission to end hunger.
Who It Impacts
Stop Hunger Now has been providing meals to the children of Tremesse for five years. Now we are partnering with the community to bring a tilapia pond, community garden and community wells, as well as a hospital to the surrounding villages to promote health and independence through sustainable development.
A rainy day is no excuse to stay inside in Bukidnon, in the northern Mindanao region of Philippines. Women trek to a HELP (Humanitarian Efforts to Lessen Poverty) Foundation training center, miles away from their homes with the promise of food and community lifting them along the way. Tola Saliring of the HELP Foundation manages the feeding program, distributing Stop Hunger Now meals to the mothers who make the journey, eager to care for their families and provide a healthy life for their children.
"Stop Hunger Now meal packets will serve as a lifeline for these communities," Tola declares. "Education paired with the meals equals sustainability for communities, allowing them the freedom to focus on larger issues."
It is important to recognize the significance of giving these mothers the skills to keep their children healthy for a lifetime, not just meals to keep their bellies full for a day. Every two weeks, lectures at the training center educate the mothers on how to properly cook the meals and on basic nutritional fundamentals. Mothers also learn about issues such as childhood diseases, alternative livelihood and sustaining their lives, not just by rice alone.
The mission of the HELP Foundation is to lessen poverty of underprivileged children in the Philippines.

How We Do It – With Volunteers, Like YOU!
My name is Davis Crews and I'm 15 years old. I learned about Stop Hunger Now in 2011. Since then, I've been involved in packaging over a million meals. I'm not sure what the exact total is, but it is over a million. I love the packaging events. A lot of times you raise money, send a check somewhere and you never see what happens with it, but with the Stop Hunger Now packaging event, you have raised this money, you have worked hard to do that, but there is still another step to it; You have to get the volunteers and they get to touch the rice, pour the soy into the bags, seal them and package them up, and see the truck pull out and know exactly where it's going at that point. It is just an amazing feeling to see that accomplishment. My favorite job is probably pouring rice into the bag. As I said, touching the rice, it's the actual tangible result of fundraising and all the work you have done and you know there is a face going behind that rice and you know you are saving somebody with the meals you are packaging.
SHARE YOUR STORY about volunteering with Stop Hunger Now!
Why We Do It – Because We Love Our Job!
I work at Stop Hunger Now because – like the majority of our staff – I want to help people. I have a heart for service, and from my humble beginnings volunteering as a Cub Scout to my current role with Stop Hunger Now, my greatest accomplishment in life has been helping others. During my time as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Belize from 2004-2006, I primarily taught about HIV/AIDS, but I also helped provide hot lunches to approximately 150-200 school-children every Monday through Friday during their school year. I became more acutely aware of the power that food provides, and how it empowers students to excel in their studies, and in their lives. Since joining Stop Hunger Now in 2009, I've seen our meals distributed in Romania, Haiti, Vietnam, and the Philippines. A few sentences can't do justice to how I feel, but I will say that nothing at Stop Hunger Now is more edifying than when I see kids eating our meals. Albert Einstein said, "Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value." Being at Stop Hunger Now enables me to strive at being a man of both success and value. I may not be the starting center-fielder for the Nats, but at Stop Hunger Now, I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be."

The settlement comes in Collins v. United States, a class action suit brought by the American Civil Liberties Union and its New Mexico affiliate. It is named for lead plaintiff Richard Collins, who was honorably discharged from the Air Force after being observed kissing his boyfriend but saw his separation pay cut because his discharge was for homosexuality.

I'm also not running to the loo quite as much! lol Measured this morning and I've already lost 2" from my waist and 2" from my hips. My jeans feel looser and I can definitely see a change in my face - I actually have a chin! lol I have a very long way to go but feel really confident about achieving it!

"Van-based Fiat Doblo is ideal for families on a budget, as it offers maximum space for minimal outlay."
Those seeking space and practicality could do a lot worse than the Fiat Doblo. It's based on the Doblo van, so the boxy lines mean plenty of space inside, but the rounded styling of the latest model is less van-like than before. Entry-level cars offer more space for your money than nearly anything else on sale, while the optional upgrade to seven seats doesn't cut cabin space too severely. The range uses the same engines and gearboxes as the Punto Evo supermini, so the Doblo is easy to drive, while diesels return excellent fuel economy.
MPG, running costs & CO2
Frugal economy and low emissions
Economy and emissions are impressive across the Doblo engine line-up and competitive for the class. The 1.4-litre petrol returns 39mpg and emits 165g/km, resulting in an annual road tax bill of £250. The most powerful 1.6-litre diesel is the highlight of the range, promising 51.4mpg and 144g/km (£110 road tax).
Engines, drive & performance
Improved dynamics, diesel engines could be more refined
The engine line-up includes a 95bhp 1.4-litre petrol, and 105bhp and 118bhp 1.6-litre Multijet diesels. The latter feel quick, even though they only claim 0-62mph in 11.3 and 13.4 seconds respectively. The larger diesel is well suited to motorway use, but all engines have to be worked hard and are noisy on start-up, as well as when the revs climb above 2,500rpm. Despite the Doblo's van roots, it corners well. The steering is precise, handling is sharp, grip is good and body roll less pronounced than in the previous car. A huge front windscreen ensures there's excellent visibility.
Interior & comfort
Smooth ride and with plenty of room to stretch your legs
Soft springs mean the Doblo soaks up bumps in the road easily, while the cabin doesn't suffer from wind noise on the motorway. There's plenty of head and legroom inside, even if you upgrade to seven seats, and the seats themselves are soft and comfortable. It sounds like a perfect combination but overall the Doblo is simply getting on a bit now and is outclassed by its rivals that feel much more mordern.
Practicality & boot space
Large cabin and boot space, option of additional seats
It's hard to top the Doblo for practicality. The boot boasts a strong 790-litre capacity; remove the seats and that rises to an enormous 3,200 litres. The sturdy parcel shelf is capable of supporting up to 70kg, while sliding rear doors make access easy. Fiat offers a Family Pack option that adds two more seats to turn the Doblo into one of the cheapest seven-seaters on the market.
Reliability & safety
Reliability is improving, but build quality gripes remain
In the past, Fiat hasn't had a great reliability record. However, newer models are proving more hard-wearing. The Doblo is built in Turkey, and early signs are that interior build quality could be better than in previous cars from the company.
Price, value for money & options
Very affordable, considering the space on offer
Prices for the Doblo are in supermini territory. It undercuts its Skoda Roomster and Citroen Berlingo rivals, so you get a lot of car for your cash. But the entry Doblo doesn't get air-conditioning or electric rear windows. The top-of-the-range Eleganza is better equipped. All in all, you'll struggle to find a cheaper seven-seater, but it just doesn't feel like a good enough product for the cost compred to rivals like the Ford B-MAX.

A New York woman who claimed she stabbed her boyfriend in self-defense has been found guilty of manslaughter.
Jennifer Marchant faces five to 25 years in prison after being found guilty in Niagara County Court on Wednesday. A jury deliberated for less than two hours.
The 24-year-old told police she stabbed 24-year-old Ralph Stone Jr. once in the chest last year because he was chasing her around their apartment in a drunken rage. The 220-pound victim's blood-alcohol content was .285 percent, more than three times the legal threshold for drunken driving.
Marchant's attorney, Dominic Saraceno, told The Buffalo News that he was disadvantaged by New York's law on self-defense, which requires a person to retreat unless facing deadly physical force.

Having been born in a family where music was just as indispensable as oxygen or food, the inclination towards the arts for Joel was quite natural. Furthermore, having studied in Patha Bhavan, Kolkata for twelve years, the nurturing was just about perfect for him to enter the realm of music.
Originally trained in Western Classical guitar (Grade-8), which he believes to have paved the way for his outlook towards music and his acceptance of the diverse musical genres in the future. Though performing from a very early age, it was only after his College, that he realized his true calling. However he decided not to be confined to just guitar playing but broaden the field and in no time he was writing songs, singing, composing, arranging them and also took a keen interest into the technicalities of music production.
Counting his influences, which are as diverse as, Johann Sebastian Bach, Sting, Dream Theatre, The Beatles, John Denver, Porcupine Tree, Norah Jones, John Mayer and many more. He believes it's important to be influenced as we know so little but to have a signature style of one's own.
At a very young age, he has already worked with some of the stalwarts of the music industry. Having access to a professional state of the art digital recording studio obviously helped, as he found just the right tools to exercise these means.

After a nice bounce back week last week, going 4-1 including a series win over Kent State, the Cougars opened up this week with a 7-2 loss to Rice in the first game of the five-game Silver Glove series. The Cougars (11-11) weren't able to generate the kind of offense they have typically when they've had success this season as five Owls pitchers combined to allow just seven hits.
It is the start of a challenging stretch for the Cougars, which continues tonight and this weekend at Fort Worth against nationally-ranked TCU in a three-game series. The Horned Frogs, who made it to the College World Series last year, are 12-7 and ranked 14th in the nation by Baseball America. It will also be a homecoming of sorts for UH head coach Todd Whitting, who was the associate head coach and recruiting coordinator at TCU last year and has been on the coaching staff since 2003.
All three games will be broadcast on The Mtn. (The Mountain West Sports Network).
"It's going to be fun, I can't wait," Whitting said. "I'm real excited to go back to Fort Worth. A lot of great friends there and the coaches and administrators are dear friends of mine. The jabs have been thrown all week among the staffs, so it's going to be fun. It's going to be a good atmosphere for our kids – to get them in an (NCAA) Regional type environment."
After the TCU series, the Cougars will play Rice again in the second-game of the Silver Glove series on Tuesday then head to New Orleans for a three-game Conference USA series against Tulane. Then a road game at Texas A&M will follow, making for an intense nine-game stretch against quality opponents.
"We have a saying in our program," Whitting said. "We're not playing against Rice, we're not playing against TCU, we're playing against the game. The quality of our opponent to this point in this season hasn't determined the outcomes of the games. We've beat some really good teams and I think we've lost some games to teams that we were better than. It's all about just playing the ball and continuing to play ball."
The Cougar softball team hits the road again for a Conference USA series at Southern Miss for three games today and Saturday. The Cougars (18-12, 2-4 C-USA) are coming off a series win at Memphis in which they took a pair of games.
Southern Miss (10-17, 0-3) is looking for its first C-USA win.
After a torrid start in which the Cougars climbed into the top 25 in the rankings, they have struggled in recent weeks, dropping seven of nine. But coach Kyla Holas isn't overly concerned in part because of how much they've been traveling and the level of competition they've faced.
"We had by far some of the toughest starts," Holas said. "Think about the two teams we've played, where they are in the conference – we've already gotten them out of the way. So for us we do have hopefully some big things ahead of us and some times to get on a roll."
She said she also felt that the players have pressed at times that has led to some of their struggles.
"We have really high expectations but what we find is that they put so much pressure on themselves that we sometimes have to back it off and find some of the little things with this group," Holas said. "This team cares almost too much. They spend too much time worrying about the what ifs that it almost paralyzes us. We've been fighting really hard to get out of that and make them realize that you have to have fun and just play this game."

Associated Press
PITTSBURGH — For a change, the St. Louis Cardinals didn't need a lot of long balls to win. Just a couple of long innings against the Pirates, a team all too acquainted with them.
Yadier Molina drove in three runs and the Cardinals twice batted around during big innings, beating Pittsburgh 11-4 on Sunday for the Pirates' 12th loss of six runs or more in 31 games.
Adam Wainwright (5-1) gave up two runs and five hits over six innings — the 25th time in 26 starts dating to last season he's permitted three runs or fewer while lasting at least six innings. He is 16-5 in those starts.
"I wasn't really that good," said Wainwright, whose only substandard start during that stretch was a 14-7 win in Pittsburgh late last season. "For some reason I find it hard to bring my 'A' game to this stadium. I don't know why. But my team gave me a chance to win."
The Cardinals didn't need nearly as much offense as they got against Pittsburgh, one of the majors' most perplexing clubs. The Pirates are 10-2 in games decided by two runs or fewer — normally, a sign of a contending club — but they have been blown out in more than one-third of their games.
The Pirates already have losses by margins of 20, 14, nine and eight runs (three times), plus three losses of seven runs and three by six runs, and the season isn't one-fifth over. They have won only twice by six runs or more while going 14-17.
"Unfortunately, your starters are going to have these games," manager John Russell said.
St. Louis took two of three in the series despite not homering. They homered 31 times in their first 29 games.
"I guess we turned the page from our offense early in the year that was all about the homer. Now we're stringing some hits together and working runs," Ryan Ludwick said.
Some defense, too.
Ludwick, the left fielder, took potential extra-base hits away from leadoff batters Aki Iwamura in the first and Garrett Jones in the second, when the game was scoreless.
"I told him, 'Your defense on those two plays changed the complexion of the whole game,"' manager Tony La Russa said.
So did the Cardinals' four-run third inning, when Paul Maholm (2-3) walked three while facing 10 batters. A pair of backups making spot starts contributed important hits as Joe Mather singled in a run and Nick Stavinoha added a run-scoring double.
Maholm got off to a bad start by needing 10 pitches to retire Wainwright on a grounder and ended up throwing 54 pitches in the inning. He threw only 53 of his 93 pitches for strikes while lasting 3 1-3 innings.
No. 9 hitter Tyler Greene followed Wainwright's extended at-bat with a double, and the productive inning was on.
"Just not a good day. I'm disappointed," Maholm said. "It's going to happen but you never feel good about it."
Left fielder Lastings Milledge couldn't hold onto Ludwick's wind-blown fly ball during a two-run fourth, with Ludwick credited with a triple. St. Louis then put it away by sending 11 to the plate during a five-run sixth.
"It's my first day playing out there with the wind and I set up too early," Milledge said. "But no excuses."
Molina had a two-run single and pinch-hitter Colby Rasmus also singled in a run, while reliever Brian Bass walked three during the sixth.
Garrett Jones hit a two-run single in the fourth for the Pirates' only scoring against Wainwright, who has yielded as many as three runs only once in seven starts.
NOTES: The Pirates committed two errors and walked eight. … The Cardinals are 52-26 in Pittsburgh since PNC Park opened in 2001, the best winning percentage (.667) of any club that has played at least 50 games there. … St. Louis had 11 runs, 11 hits and left 11 on base. … The gametime temperature was 47, with winds in the 20-mph range. … Albert Pujols' strikeout in the fourth was his first in 27 at-bats against Maholm.

As a senior, just a few short days away from graduation, there are so many things I wish someone would have sat me down and drilled into my brain when I first started college. Now I'm not saying I have any regrets (I have had an epic four years on this campus), but looking at the high school seniors touring for orientation, so many words of advice come to mind.
- Classes do not actually matter. Getting an A+ in freshman math does not get your laid or paid, so therefore, do not waste your time. I know your GPA was important in high school, but as long as you don't fail and you don't suck as a person, you can get a job with a 2.8.
- College is for building personality more than building a resume. Having a 4.0 and a list of activities and honors 10 miles long is great, but you are probably really boring and have no fun stories to share when you're up at 3am with your investment banking analyst class. Make sure you're the type of person you want to grab a drink with at the end of the four years.
- Go out on the Tuesday, or Sunday, or any day. Never say no. I know this is cliché but the best memories of my time in college are those random nights that I just said yes, and went with the flow. You will find yourself breaking into your old dorm, at a strip club, or watching the sun rise from the roof of your house with a slampiece.
- Go Greek. Seriously. How else are you going to be introduced to 100s of sexy people a night who come over with the full intention of not leaving until the morning? Formals, date parties, theme parties, bar crawls, day parties, and all the best events happen when letters are involved. No one starts a good story with "this one time, when I was hanging out with the same 6 people I see every weekend…"
- Make friends with the opposite sex. Yeah I know you want to get inside every girl or get railed by every guy, but honestly its important to make some actual friendships that don't involve condoms and humping. Sunday morning brunch downtown is only fun when you can share it with some great buddies. Don't make your life awkward 24/7 by hooking up with everyone. Trust me, you'll run out of friends by senior year, and the bars will be one uncomfortable encounter after the next.
- Spend money. Go out to eat, buy the next round, and show up to the party with a bottle in hand. You'll make money after senior year so rack up some debt. Don't get your undies in a bunch over splitting every bill or tracking down all the times you gave a friend 5 bucks. If you had a great time, fucking forget it. The memories are more important than your bank balance.
- Go on a crazy spring break. Everyone needs one or two of these in their lives, and it only happens in college. Boobs, tequila, pools, ocean, and clubs. I shouldn't have to convince anyone of this.
- Live in a house with your best friends senior year. Porch parties, roof beers, tailgates, everything is more fun when you have your own house to destroy. Don't worry about cleaning or picking up, just have a great time every day. Learn to cook in the kitchen though; everyone loves a person who can cook.
- Dress up for theme parties. You are not too cool.
- There is some unique event at every school. Do it, and do it up right. You don't get the chance to wake up at 8am, go to a giant mud party and then cheer on a bunch of people at a bike race outside of college. Remember that college is not real life, so enjoy every drunk minute of it.
- Get to know the bouncers and bar tenders at the best bars. You will no doubt have younger friends that you want to get in with you. Honestly this just can't hurt anyone. Free drinks are the best flavor.
- Stay in SOME (not all) nights with your friends. Play a dumb game, drink beer, crack up at inside jokes and watch bad movies. You do need these nights, but like driving your slampiece home in the morning, it should only happen once in awhile.
- Take a lot of videos. I know pictures are great, but videos are hilarious the next day.
There are so many more things I wish I could tell any new ungrads, but it really all comes down to enjoying every minute. It is easy to think of the next four years as an eternity, but it isn't. Remember how fast high school felt by the end of it? It feels like 1/8th of that time when I reflect on college. These friendships are the best you can make, and these are the memories and stories you will tell for the rest of your life (not all the stories…). Take advantage of anything you can, and have the very best time you can imagine. All good things come to an end, make sure you have a reason to be sad when that time comes, and some best friends to lean on.
When we seniors finally throw our caps in the air, remember us and try to make your four years even better (That's impossible because we are fucking awesome).

Two fun Christmas Card Crafts for the kids to make! Shared by Cathy at NurtureStore.
(I love her point that they don't have to be perfect. That's kind of the best part!)
Simple child-made Christmas cards
With two crafty kids in the house we love to make and send some simple child-made Christmas cards to our friends and family. I love adding homemade touches to our celebration and I think sending a special card to someone they love is a fun way to involve children in the spirit of the holiday.
Here are two simple design ideas that are easy to make and look super cute.
Simple Christmas tree card:
This design is so easy to make and invites the children to add their own embellishments. The tree is made from a triangle shaped piece of paper, which you simply stick to the front your card. Then it's over to the children to add all the decorations. You can glue on shapes, use stickers and, in our house at least, add lots and lots of glitter.
Easy snowman card :
The snowman is made from two circles of cotton wool, glued in place on the front of the card. Even very young children can add faces, buttons and arms with a pencil or marker pen. We like to add a few falling snowflakes, made by sticking on some sequins. I love how each of the snowmen my kids made looks different, with it's own little personality.
Child-made Christmas cards don't have to be perfect.
The very fact that they have been hand-made makes them special, and using bold shapes with your child's own embellishments is a great-looking combination.
If your kids love lots of Christmas making they might like to try our paper plate angels or our model Christmas village.

It's not just Duke: House indifferent to ethics
Last week's report that disgraced former Congressman Randy "Duke" Cunningham had been sent from federal prison in Arizona to a halfway house in New Orleans near where some of his family members live brought back some awful memories. The extent of Cunningham's corruption was so extreme – he had a bribe menu listing the cost of his services – that it shocked even jaded Washington. But the combination of the Cunningham mess, other scandals and public revulsion over lawmakers using earmarks to pay off campaign donors actually seemed to offer promise back in 2005 and 2006 that we might see significant change in Washington, with much more emphasis on ethical behavior.
No more. While earmark-related corruption has waned, lawmakers are still doing their best to inspire cynicism. Earlier this year, a Washington Post investigation uncovered a staggering amount of legal but highly dubious behavior. Some of the findings:
• 73 lawmakers "sponsored or co-sponsored legislation in recent years that could benefit businesses or industries in which either they or their family members are involved or invested," the Post found.
• 33 lawmakers sponsored spending measures that directed $300 million to projects within two miles of property they own, many times for projects that directly increased their property value.
• 130 lawmakers and their close relatives traded stock more 5,000 times in companies that were lobbying their committees on legislation the companies were concerned about.
Given these findings, one would assume that Congress would want to introduce new safeguards. Instead, the House Ethics Committee seems as passive as ever, countenancing many obvious conflicts of interest by members.
Even worse, the Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE) – established in 2008 as an independent panel to investigate allegations and refer ethical breaches to the House Ethics Committee – is on the verge of obsolescence. Its mandate expires in January. Even if it is renewed, it could just be for appearance's sake. That's because four of the six OCE board members' terms are about to expire, and House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., have made no moves to replace them. Unless the board has at least four members, it is effectively paralyzed. So much for the high hopes that greeted OCE's 2008 creation.
On the same day Cunningham's departure from federal prison was announced, 11 watchdog groups issued a joint announcement in Washington imploring Boehner and Pelosi to not let the ethics office wither away. The only response they got was vague promises.
"There are strong bipartisan vibes against [OCE]," the National Legal and Policy Center's Ken Boehm told the National Journal.
Why? The likely answer is as troubling as Duke Cunningham's brazen corruption: There are so many lawmakers cutting corners and behaving badly that they see an aggressive, independent ethics office as a threat to their careers.
That's an amazing and sad comment on life within the Beltway.

Theodore Karl Quijano, Pinoy graduates with honors at US Air Force Academy
Theodore Karl Quijano of Dipolog city was bitten early by the lure of flight and that has taken him all the way to Colorado, where he graduates next week from the US Air Force Academy.
"I grew up right next to the airport. I saw planes land and take off every day and the sight made me dream to be able to fly those aircraft one day," Theodore Karl Quijano revealed.
Quijano spent three years at the University of the Philippines (UP) campus in Diliman but due to financial challenges, Quijano decided to apply at the Philippine Military Academy (PMA) in Baguio City where he not only got a free education, he also got a modest stipend.
Later, Karl Quijano took the entrance test and qualified for the United States Service Academies – one of the most rigorous examinations that allows only the brightest and strongest candidates from all over Southeast Asia to join West Point (Army), Annapolis (Navy and Marines) and the Air Force Academy (the Philippines used to have yearly slots reserved in these schools until the US closed its military bases in the country).
Theodore Karl Quijano not only learned to fly, he soared in the Academy, achieving feats that should make Filipinos proud.
1. Given command of Cadet Squadron 10 last Fall
2. Assigned as Cadet Wing Chief of Standardization and Evaluation
3. He was also made Superintendent of CS-10
4. Belongs to the Superintendent's (overall excellence) and Dean's (academic excellence) list
5. Parachutist Badge, Space Wings (for completing the space operations program that taught him, among others, how to operate satellites), Glider Pilot Wings and the Powered Flight Wings
As part of the graduating class of 2013, he marches with honors at Falcon Field next Wednesday. Quijano will also receive the Outstanding Basic Cadet Award from the Academy's Commandant for finishing 1st in the class of 1,300 cadets for military excellence. In addition, Quijano ranked 2nd in athletics for his batch and is the only Filipino cadet (out of 15 who preceded him in the USAFA since 1956) to get a perfect physical fitness score in the Academy's 500 Club.
After the graduation ceremonies, the foreign cadets are usually ushered to a separate ceremony where they will get their officer's commission from their respective countries. The Philippine Air Force's DC-based military attaché, Col. Arnel Duco is expected to swear him in as a 2nd Lieutenant in the PAF.
The eldest in a brood of seven, he learned early on the challenges of being a leader in the family.
"My father inspired me with stories about successful people both in the military and corporate worlds, and how I should work to be just like them when I grew up and help send my siblings to school."
"But most of all I learned from my parents the value of living with honor, integrity and service to others," Quijano said.
"I intend to serve my country to the utmost of my abilities," Quijano stressed.
"I will use what I learned here to be an asset for change and innovation in the military. I will do what I can at my level to hopefully affect the bigger system. [And] I hope to fly the Philippine's aircraft soon."

Though a relatively recent development, it is now possible to camp at any number of parks and beaches in Singapore. This phenomenon is a considerably cheaper option than even the most affordable budget hotels (though you may want to invest in affordable gear before traveling), and it can also be much more pleasant.
Note: although cooking pits and barbecues abound, it is necessary to pay a fee to use them legally.
East Coast Park
Of the parks available, East Coast Park offers access to sports and activities, including cycling, in-line skating, cable skiing, and water sports. There is also a large skate park for people interested in skateboarding.
Changi Beach Park
Changi Beach Park is the oldest facility in Singapore, and with its white sand beach, coconut palms, and barbecue pits, it has been beloved by locals for decades.
Pasir Ris Park
Pasir Ris Park is a good choice for travelers interested in bird watching, as there is a bird watching tower and a mangrove forest. There is also a beach "blot-rope" and an elaborate playground, making it a good choice for campers with children.
West Coast Park
West Coast Park has more in the way of established facilities for campers willing to endure a little bit of bustle. There are gardens, lawns, restaurants, jogging paths, and a fitness center.
Granite Island
For outdoor enthusiasts seeking wilderness and culture, the boomerang-shaped Granite Island (Pulau Ubin) offers more than 2,500 acres of wilderness, abandoned granite quarries, rolling hills, and some of Singapore's last remaining traditional kampongs (or "villages"). Easily and affordably reached by ferry, Granite Island is also different because it is possible to camp without a permit.

Hi flock!
I've been laying low for a few days because it was my birthday on Saturday (the big three oh!!) and I had a last-minute guest come into town to celebrate with me. My older sister!! :)
I had a great birthday. It was odd to say goodbye to my twenties... To be honest, it felt like it kind of snuck up on me! I didn't feel like I had too much time to think about getting older and how to handle the upcoming milestone birthday.
But now, I'm SO looking forward to finding out what the next decade has in store for me!
In lieu of a gigantic cake this year, my hunny organized a mini cupcake-cake... too cute!
{ adorable and delicious! }
He tried to make the whole table colorful, so he added a store bought birthday-themed plastic tablecloth... and didn't notice the full print on it until we pointed it out...
{ hehe! happy 1st birthday to me!! }
And now back to our regularly scheduled vacation-picture sharing!
