A Poncho Or Cape To Keep Warm This Winter
Ponchos and capes were around last winter but this winter it looks like they will be even more on trend. A poncho or cape is the perfect cover up for a cold day. It keeps you really snug and warm and fits over the chunkiest of jumpers for a fashionable take on a classic look. Capes and ponchos have come in and out of fashion over the decades with the sixties and seventies have their own versions. It is perhaps because of this retro revival that we are seeing so many capes on the catwalk for winter 2010 but it also fits in well with the whole winter sport or artic trend.
One of the most sought after looks of the season will be the camel coloured cape but you can be a little different and individual with patterned or black capes or ponchos.
How to wear your poncho or cape
There are plenty of different styles of ponchos' and capes around this winter ranging from cape style outdoor coats to knitted versions which can be worn indoors or outdoors and evening styles for travelling to and from an evening event. Generally speaking the longer and more voluminous the poncho or cape, the more you will need to balance the look by wearing slim fitting clothes on your bottom half. A cape style coat or poncho works really well over a suit to travel to and from work and will comfortably fit over a tailored jacket.
Knitted ponchos tend to look better with casual outfits and work especially well with a pair of leggings and a tunic top as the close fit of the leggings give a balanced look. For the evening a cape or poncho will usually look best with a long column style of evening dress or evening trousers although a short style of poncho an cape may also work with a fuller skirt.
This Black knit panels fringe hem detail poncho is the perfect finishing touch to many evening outfits. It adds warmth but does not detract from the beautiful evening wear worn underneath. Black is the perfect versatile colour and this dress will work for so many occasions including with daytime outfits. It has a delicate fringe and is finished with pom poms. It also has cuffs to keep the ponch in place.
This stunning Black knit panels fringe hem detail poncho not only acts as a great cover up to travel to and from parties this winter but also is a fashion statement in its own right. The white icicle and snow like design gives it a really wintery feel and fits in well with the ski wear trend seen on many of the catwalks.
This beautiful Longline black and brown poncho with buttons is perfect for daytime wear in the winter. It has a chunky knit with brown panels and a very attractive and warm faux fur collar. It would look great with black leggings and boots. If you are short, add a wedge heel to keep the look balanced.

Featured Content
Rio Grande National Forest
Explore a portion of John Charles Freemont's historical ill-fated journey through the backcountry of Colorado's La Garita Mountains. You will have the opportunity to forge your way through various routes, to actual identified campsites used by Fremont and his men in the harsh winter of 1848 and 1849. Actual trails from camp to camp do not exist. Compass directions are given to allow you to walk directly from site to site. It is up to you to decide the best routes and to create your own orienteering expedition.
You can start your expedition from either Ground Hog Creek or Divide Park. An orienteering route for each is described below.
Before you go, you might want to visit the Rio Grande County Museum's Fremont Exhibit. The exhibit, entitled "Of Ice and Men," contains artifacts found at various campsites, including the remains of a crude sled built to remove baggage from the snowbound Christmas Camp. Photographs of the area, reproductions of watercolors done by expedition artists, and a map of probable routes of the expedition are also displayed. An artist's depiction of the scene at the expedition's Christmas Camp in 1848 was done by San Luis Valley artist Charles Ewing. This piece, done by using historical information as a basis, is the focal point of the exhibit.
The Rio Grande County Museum is located 1/2 block south of "The Stoplight" in Del Norte. Please call for information concerning times when the museum is open, as it varies seasonally.
John Charles Fremont's Fourth Expedition of 1848-49
John Charles Fremont's Fourth Expedition attempted a winter crossing of the Rocky Mountains late in the year of 1848. The expedition ended in failure high in the snowbound La Garita Mountains to the northwest of present Del Norte, Colorado. The expedition began in St. Louis in 1848 when Fremont was hired by a St. Louis businessman to find a railroad route through the central Rockies to California. His expedition, totaling 36 men and 120 mules, included botanists, geologists, geographers, and laborers.
After crossing the San Luis Valley, the group went into the La Garita Mountains where they became snowbound. Soon afterward the 120 mules died of exposure; 100 in one night alone. While snow storms continued in the mountains, the men would camp just below timberline, protected by small groups of trees. While at the camps they huddled around large fires, in small groups, to keep warm. Many trees were cut with axes to feed these fires. The deep snow at the campsites resulted in high stumps being left at the scene of these camps. Crudely cut high stumps indicate the locations of the camps today.
Evidence of the route of the expedition is based on descriptions given in diaries of expedition members, the presence of crudely cut stumps, mule skeletal material, certain artifacts, historical records, and the expedition artists' watercolors.
Trail Description from Groundhog Creek
From Del Norte (Junction of Colorado Highway 112 and U.S. Highway 160) drive west on U.S. 160 9.1 miles to the Embargo Creek Road. Proceed 1.4 miles north, across the Rio Grande, to the North River Road. Turn right and proceed 0.3 mile to the Embargo Creek Road, which is Forest Development Road (FDR) #640. Proceed north on FDR #640 21.6 miles to the Groundhog Creek Trail. A parking area is located on the east side of the road. This dirt road is suitable for 2-wheel-drive vehicles. From the starting point use the following directions in order to hike to the Fremont Expedition campsites below.
Groundhog Starting Point to Fremont's Groundhog Creek Camp
From the starting point follow the Groundhog Creek Trail northwest for 2 miles to timberline at the 11,680' elevation. Fremont's Groundhog Creek Camp is located to the southwest, on the west side of Groundhog Creek, in the last group of Engelmann spruce before timberline.
The Groundhog Creek camp was occupied longer than any other Fremont campsite. The camp, with the characteristic crudely cut stumps, was the place where the groups of men began leaving the mountain for the San Luis Valley below. Later the Kern brothers occupied the site for 11 days. Richard Kern erected a crude structure here to spend the night of January 2, 1849.
From Groundhog Creek Camp to New Years Camp
Fremont's New Years Camp can be reached by traveling approximately 0.9 mile at exactly 270 degrees (due west). A suggested route avoids the steep slopes of the direct approach. It is approximately 1.1 miles in length. The New Years Camp is located in the last group of spruce trees before timberline on the west side of Embargo Creek.
This camp was occupied by Benjamin, Richard and Ned Kern, Andrew Cathcart, and two fellow American Indians on the night of December 31, 1848. Diaries of the Kern brothers reveal that their group was the only one to camp there and that the snow was only two feet deep, which explains why there are few of the characteristic high stumps in this area. According to Richard Kern it was at this camp that he and the others sang songs, prepared a New Year's Eve meal of mule meat, and were able, as Richard Kern expressed later, to "fire out the old year and pass the pleasantest night since their start" (Richmond 1990).
From New Years Camp to Christmas Camp
Fremont's Christmas Camp can be reached by traveling 1.6 miles 196 degrees from the northwest edge of New Years Camp. This direct route will cross Rincon Creek and an intermittent tributary to it. The suggested route avoids the steep slopes of the direct approach and is approximately 2.6 miles in length.
It was at this camp that Fremont and other expedition members spent their Christmas Holiday. From December 22 to December 26, 1848 Fremont and his men moved their baggage from the Wannamaker Camp (Camp Dismal) to this camp, which became known as "Camp Hope." It was at this camp that Fremont decided to send out a rescue party to find the New Mexican settlements in order to acquire much needed food and supplies. The rescue team left the Christmas camp on December 26, 1848 in high hopes of locating the New Mexican settlements only to return three days later with the message that the route they had chosen was too steep to transport their goods and supplies (Richmond 1990).
From Christmas Camp, through One Relay Camp, and on to the Wannamaker Camp
Fremont's Wannamaker Camp can be reached by traveling 1.6 miles northwest at approximately 297 degrees from the northwest edge of Christmas Camp. By taking this direct route, a relay camp will be encountered at the midpoint (0.8 mile) between the Christmas Camp and the Wannamaker Camp. From the west edge of the relay camp the Wannamaker Camp can be reached simply by staying on a direct line from the Christmas Camp (northwest at 297 degrees) for another 0.8 mile. This direct route will cross an existing trail at about 0.4 mile and will cross another existing trail and Wannamaker Creek at approximately 0.6 mile. The suggested route avoids the steep terrain on the west side of the relay camp and is approximately three miles in length. The Wannamaker Camp is again located in two clumps of spruce immediately below timberline.
From Wannamaker Camp to Inscription Rock Camp
Inscription Rock Camp can be reached by traveling four miles northeast at approximately 42 degrees from the southeast edge of the Wannamaker Camp. Existing trails will intersect this rout at approximately 0.2 mile and at two miles. The suggested route avoids the steep slopes of the direct route and runs mostly on an existing trail until it reaches the Inscription Rock Camp. Unlike all the other camps, Inscription Rock does not contain any of the characteristic stumps to identify this camp. This camp can only be identified by the remains of a "D" shaped structure of rock located on the narrow ridge top. It is sometimes, depending on sun angle, possible to witness the year "1848" inscribed on the west facing rock wall where the "D" shaped structure is located. This particular site was occupied by only one of Fremont's men and was more of a constructed rock shelter than a campsite.
From Inscription Rock to La Garita Camp
La Garita Camp can be reached by traveling three miles northeast at 235 degrees from the northeast edge of Inscription Rock. An existing trail will intersect this route at 2.4 miles. The suggested route avoids the steep terrain of the more direct route. More than half of this route consists of an existing trail and the length of this entire route is approximately 3.2 miles. Once again the campsite is identified by the characteristic ax cut tree stumps located on the southwest perimeter of the first group of spruce trees encountered.
According to the diaries of Ben Kern, it was at this camp that the men sought protection after reaching the summit of Boot Mountain. Upon reaching this mountaintop Fremont's men were disappointed to discover that it was not the expected "dividing ridge" as they noticed the higher elevated Mesa Mountain to the west. La Garita Camp was a midway stop between Boot and Mesa Mountains.
From La Garita Camp to Groundhog Creek Camp
By traveling southwest at 208 degrees from the southwest edge of La Garita Camp for approximately 4.4 miles, Groundhog Creek Camp can be reached. An existing trail will intersect this direct route at approximately 0.6 mile, and Geban Creek will intersect the direct route at 3.6 miles. A longer, yet much easier route is suggested to avoid the many steep areas of the direct route. Groundhog Camp can be reached by traveling along this suggested route for approximately 5.6 miles southwest. An existing trail can be reached by traveling southwest from the southwest edge of La Garita Camp for approximately 0.6 mile. It is suggested that this existing trail be used for 1.2 miles before heading southwest for approximately 3.6 more miles.
This concludes the loop from Groundhog Creek Camp, to New Years Camp, to Christmas Camp, to Wannamaker Camp, to Inscription Rock, to La Garita Camp, and back to Groundhog Creek Camp.
Trail Description from Divide Park
The Divide Park access point also begins in Del Norte at the junction of Colorado Highway 112 and U.S. Highway 160. Drive west on U.S. Highway 160 13.3 miles to the road heading north at the Alder Creek Access. Turn right and travel north 0.2 mile, across the Rio Grande, to the North River Road. Turn right and proceed northeast 2.5 miles to the Agua Ramon Road (FDR #630). Turn left and proceed northwest, being sure to stay on FDR #630, 16.8 miles to Divide Park. Turn right and continue on the 4-wheel-drive portion of FDR #630 northwest 3.1 miles to the end of the road. Divide Park provides access to Fremont's Christmas Camp, Wannamaker Camp, and the Preuss Camp. Refer to information provided for access from the Groundhog Creek Vehicle Access Point for directions to other Fremont's campsites from Wannamaker and Christmas Camps.
Please Note: The Last 3.1 Miles of Road Requires a 4-Wheel-Drive Vehicle
Access to Fremont's Christmas Camp
Fremont's Christmas Camp can be reached by driving (4-wheel-drive) approximately 2.5 miles from Divide Park on FDR #630 to a road trace on the east (right) side of the road in a saddle type feature just before a long uphill climb. By traveling directly 65 degrees one will reach the Christmas Camp, across the drainage and on the opposite ridge top, in approximately one mile. The suggested route avoids the steep slopes and is approximately two miles in length.
Access to Fremont's Wannamaker Camp
Fremont's Wannamaker Camp can be easily reached from the end of FDR #630 by walking due north approximately 0.6 mile to the campsite in a small group of trees immediately below timberline. The suggested route is to travel on the west side of Wannamaker Creek in a general northerly direction to the site.
The Wannamaker Camp was occupied by Fremont and his men from December 17 until December 22, 1848. Due to the severe winter conditions, Fremont's expedition was delayed for several days as they were stranded at this camp. Due to this harsh climate many of the packing mules died of stress, hunger, and exhaustion at this area; thus this camp became known as "Camp Dismal." It wasn't until December 22, 1848, that Fremont decided to move his expedition to the south side of Mesa Mountain for additional protection.
From Wannamaker Camp to Preuss Camp
Preuss Camp can be reached by traveling 0.4 mile southwest at approximately 250 degrees from the southwest edge of the Wannamaker Camp. An existing trail will intersect this direct route 0.2 mile into the journey. The suggested route requires that the southeast edge of the Wannamaker Camp be used for the beginning point of the hike, to avoid steep terrain. This route totals about one mile in length. Due to the small number of occupants at this camp only a couple of the characteristic stumps can be found here.
This camp is believed to have been occupied by Charles Preuss and a few other men while John Fremont and the rest of his men remained at the Christmas Camp. Preuss had noticed a road winding from the west and attempted to break a trail to it. Although there are no written accounts of Preuss and his men setting a camp during this time, characteristic stumps found at the head of Trujillo Creek are believed to have been the result of Preuss and his men. The attempt to reach the winding road from the west failed after several days of struggling through the dense snow. According to records, Preuss wrote "Since all ahead was white, we decided to return" (Richmond 1990).
Requirements for your successful adventure will include the use of topographical maps of the area, the use of a compass, and respect for this beautiful high mountain area. Special respect for the historical nature of the campsites themselves will be necessary. One should be sure not to camp within the identified Fremont campsite locations. One also should be careful to not disturb any historic or natural features of the sites.
Obtaining your own USGS topographic maps is suggested as the copy does not indicate vegetation and is not clear enough. The quads needed are: USGS Pool Table Mountain, Colo., Pine Cone Knob, Colo., Mesa Mountain, Colo., and Bowers Peak, Colo. It is suggested that one obtain a copy of Patricia Joy Richmond's book titled Trail to Disaster as an aid to travel and for additional historic information.

The Fine Art of Spring Fashion
Designers channel their artistic muses this spring
LOOKING AT the spring collections, you'd be forgiven for thinking you'd walked into an art gallery. Fashion is in full art attack mode, with designers splashing paint across dresses and translating historic pictures into arresting and covetable prints. Oscar de la Renta covered a ballgown in an intricate William Morris-esque print, while Jean-Charles de Castelbajac turned shift dresses into canvases for his own abstract paintings. Everywhere, fashion is being elevated to walking works of art.
Take Me Out
Don't leave inspiration to the designers. Find your own fashion muse this spring at "Henri Matisse: The Cut-Outs" at London's Tate Modern. The exhibition, open until Sept. 7 and then at New York's MoMA, Oct. 25-Feb. 8, is a rare and colorful look into the final years of the French artist.
When his health started to decline, Matisse made like a fashion designer and grabbed a pair of scissors, cutting, shaping and layering sheets of paper until each look was perfect. Full of bright, springlike hues, the 120 works on display provide kindling to fire your own artistic experimentation—with paper or fabric. tate.org.uk
"Art brings credibility to fashion," says Francesca Gavin, visual arts editor at fashion magazine Dazed & Confused. "We are so aware of the speed and commercialism in fashion now that designers and people buying high-end designer clothing really want to be engaged in some sense of authenticity."
While there's a surge of art-fashion crossovers this season, designers have long dipped their pens in the inkwell of artists. In the 1930s, Elsa Schiaparelli collaborated with Salvador Dalí on a number of pieces, including a lobster-print gown worn by Wallis Simpson in the June 1937 issue of U.S. Vogue, and Yves Saint Laurent famously used the block lines of a Piet Mondrian painting to structure a 1965 shift dress. More recently, Louis Vuitton's collaborations have seen the French house's bags covered in everything from Takashi Murakami's colorful anime to Stephen Sprouse's neon graffiti.
Despite these successful meetings of the minds, art has historically been hesitant to actively pair with fashion. But that's all changing. "Artists are using fashion as promotion, like posters or catalogs," says Jenny Mannerheim, creative director of Paris-based label Each X Other, which she fronts with designer Ilan Delouis. The duo invites artists to transfer their ideas onto the brand's androgynous-inspired silhouettes. "We work with fashion as a publication media and put the biography of the artist on everything. So if you buy a leather jacket, you can Google GOOGL -0.92 % the artist and discover a whole new world."
If You Like Abstraction
The Inspiration: The mood book that greeted guests at the Céline show included black and white images from Hungarian photographer Brassaï's 1961 collection of graffiti pictures, but the bold freehand brush strokes that covered designer Phoebe Philo's relaxed dresses also echoed contemporary abstract painting—a major trend surging through art right now. There was a likeness to the striking work of American Laura Owens, whose open and airy oversize paintings—like the "Untitled" pieces from 2012—grab the viewer's attention with their joyful colors and shapes. Not unlike the vibrant Céline dresses. Ms. Philo, the thinking woman's designer, is no stranger to the avant-garde: Her art-dealer husband, Max Wigram, looks after some of the hottest new names in art.
The Look: Michael Kors shoes, £140; Cédric Charlier sweatshirt, £235, J. Brand jeans, £250 , all net-a-porter.com
If You Like Street Art
The Inspiration: Fashion's art obsession is ultimately headed for the streets as walking paintings, so what better place to look for inspiration? That's exactly what avid art supporter Miuccia Prada did, showing her bejeweled dresses against a backdrop of works by illustrators and muralists, including Gabriel Specter's "In the heart of the multitude."
The Look: Christian Louboutin bag, £695, christianlouboutin.com ; Alexander McQueen skirt, £1,075, harrods.com ; Cats Brothers tee, £315, brownsfashion.com ; Nicholas Kirkwood heels, £450, brownsfashion.com
If You Like New European Painting
The Inspiration: Karl Lagerfeld, fashion's favorite multitasker, is a little like that kid at school who went above and beyond. Not only did he go all out with regard to the artistic merit of his spring collection for Chanel, he also spent his summer whipping up sketches for tongue-in-cheek paintings imitating art stars and Chanel icons. A 19th-century color table from paint specialist Royal Talens sparked silk dresses covered in all 150 hues—the sartorial equivalent of a Gerhard Richter color-chart painting, like "256 Farben" (1974).
The Look: Preen top, £415, avenue32.com ; Osman pants, £450, matchesfashion.com ; Gianvito Rossi heels, £470, gianvitorossi.com ; Givenchy bag, £1,250, givenchy.com
If You Like Vanitas
The Inspiration: Dries Van Noten draws on art to dream up his lavish collections. He's also a gardener and for spring, those passions came together in exquisite brocades. His design is a replica of an 1889 brocade, but it could have been plucked from a Flemish master's still life. In bloom, yet showing signs of fading, tulips sprawl across a black coat, reminding us of life's—and fashion's—transient nature. Jan Brueghel the Elder, the painter behind "Vase of Flowers" (circa 1610-15), would approve.
The Look: Veronique Branquinho dress, £825, thecorner.com ; Shaun Leane earrings, £6,500, shaunleane.com ; Sophia Webster heels, £540, matchesfashion.com ; Lanvin bag, £2,325, lanvin.com
If You Like Post-Impressionism
The Inspiration: Art is one of the final bastions of unadulterated luxury, so it's only natural that fashion houses should turn their gaze to the painted canvas. At Hermès this season, creative director Christophe Lemaire looked to Post-Impressionist painter Henri Rousseau's verdant fantasy dreamscapes, like "Tropical Forest: Battling Tiger and Buffalo" (1908), to create his own lush, leafy prints. Fashion is, for the most part, about antireality and escapism. So what better partner in crime than Rousseau, whose bold, exotic scenes invite the viewer into another realm?
The Look: Marni dress, £720, marni.com ; Chloé bag, £930, harrods.com
If You Like Light and Space
The Inspiration: Whether it's fox dipped in gold or mink seamlessly fused with crystals, Fendi's handiwork tends to be little masterpieces in their own right. For spring, the Italian house's collection had a translucent glow that brought to mind James Turell's mesmerizing neon-lit artworks, like "Bridget's Bardo" (2009). Silvia Venturini Fendi and Karl Lagerfeld's piercingly modern orange and cobalt dresses could easily be displayed next to the American artist's hypnotic large-scale spaces.
The Look: Fendi evening coat, £2,390, and blouse, £670 fendi.com ; Valentino heels, £600, valentino.com
Art That Will Make You Pop
Three highly collectible designer-artist collaborations
Opening Ceremony x René Magritte // Add a touch of the surreal to your wardrobe with this limited-edition collection, which hits stores in May. Designers Carol Lim and Humberto Leon have transferred 12 of Magritte's strange and alluring paintings to sportswear-inspired neoprene silhouettes and Vans sneakers as cleverly placed prints. Top billing? The iconic "Shéhérazade" (1948) on a dress and bomber jacket, complete with 3-D pearl embroidery.
Richard Nicoll x Linder Sterling // For a slickly modern take on punk art, invest in a piece that fuses the provocative collage imagery of artist Linder Sterling—who performed in a meat dress at Manchester's Hacienda Club in 1982, years before Lady Gaga was even born—with designer Richard Nicoll's refined, minimalist universe. A unisex line titled SH/E is in the works and for spring, the pair have collaborated on bomber jackets covered in suggestive serpent imagery and graphic print dresses overlaid with sensual everyday objects.
Raf Simons x Sterling Ruby // After creating bleached-out interiors for Raf Simons's Tokyo store and a series of bleeding fabrics for the fashion designer's Christian Dior haute couture, Sterling Ruby has now formally paired up with his close friend for fall 2014. Handcrafted, paint-splattered and scrawled on, the D.I.Y. pieces celebrate the beauty in vandalizing and defacing objects, infused with a youthful energy and raw nerve. While it's technically menswear, the boys will have a hard time keeping this collection to themselves.

The Live Acoustic Venue Association's all-star series resumes Saturday after a two-week break.
The show will start at 7 p.m. at Abounding Grace Sanctuary, 2450 S. Kolb Road, and will feature two members of the Arizona Blues Hall of Fame - Stefan George and Hans Olson - performing a special History of the Blues concert.
George tours nationally and internationally, and has won awards for his evocative songwriting and luminous guitar playing, including TAMMIES for Best Songwriter, Best Acoustic Guitar, Best Acoustic Ensemble and Best Solo Acoustic. He has also been inducted into the Tucson Musicians Hall of Fame, the Arizona Blues Hall of Fame and the Tucson Musicians Museum, and he won Best Artist at Mettmann Blues Week in Germany.
George has been a finalist in the Telluride and Kerrville Songwriting contests, the Just Plain Folk Songwriting contest and the Music City Song Festival contest.
Olson has been a fixture on the Arizona music scene for more 40 years. From San Bernardino, Calif., Olson began his musical career as a lead singer in rock 'n' roll bands in the late 1960s and began performing solo in coffeehouses around that time.
Olson's first inspirations were Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones and Muddy Waters.

Columbia River Minimalist Tanto
Retailers' Descriptions
Here's what other sites are saying:
They are very small and lightweight knives which give surprising comfort and control, thanks to the unusual geometry of the full-tang blades, aided by three finger choils, friction grooves for the thumb, hand-contoured green-black resin impregnated fiber scales, and a braided fob. Unlike many small neck knives, this handle is really functional for a wide variety of daily cutting tasks. Each Minimalist comes with a custom-fitted glass filled nylon sheath and neck paracord for inverted carry as a neck knife. The knife is held securely in place by a positive detent which locks the base of the blade in place for maximum safety.

Idaho 2011
Hello to all the Spaceward Bound community! I am a member of the science department at Hillcrest High School in Idaho Falls. My current teaching assignment is Earth Science, but I've also taught Botany and an advanced Earth Systems class. I have an MS in Geology and worked on programs associated with alternative energy, low level radioactive waste and site characterization at the Idaho National Lab before entering the teaching profession.
I love teaching science, and I think it's really important to help students broaden their horizons and see the world around them with an understanding of the natural processes at work. It always amazes me to discover that many of my students haven't been far outside the boundaries of their home town. I am looking forward to this Spaceward Bound experience to discover new ways to bring the wonders of Idaho alive for them.
We truly do live in a remarkable state, which gives me every opportunity to fully engage in my many hobbies. I enjoy camping along with mountain biking, hiking or canoeing. I love the treasure hunt of geocaching and have three active caches of my own. I also spend a ton of time in my vegetable garden, which gets bigger every year despite the fact that neither of my children live at home anymore. If an hour of free time presents itself, I love to play disc golf at the local courses and really enjoy visiting courses in other towns. I always have a bag of discs in the car and am ready to go. My dog Lacey and my ever patient husband Paul are very indulgent in following my quests for adventure.

Coach: Kim Cousin.
2013: Eighth in NBC.
Returning letterwinners: Seniors C.J. Matheny (mid-distance/distance); Kaleb Danko (HJ); Voshon Cousin (LJ/ sprint relays). Junior Rayshon Martin (LJ/mid-distance). Sophomores C.J. Twinning (HJ/sprint relays); Gabe Thompson (throws).
Others: Seniors Micah Randall; Keegan Green; Caleb Peace; Kaleb Gooding; Peter Nunez. Junior Jimmy Cooper. Sophomores Blake Bush; Christian Bailey; Kyle Kreh; Quentin Bunley; Tyree Ticey; Chase Garcia; Aquiles Estrada (distance); Elias Velasquez; Dylan Weimerskirch; Cruz Betancourt. Freshmen Jayden Stanton (HJ/sprints); DaeMeir Johnson; Tysen Latanasibounluang (mid-distance); Zach Jimison; Jaycee Fuerstenau; Skylar Cramer (sprints); Brady Fisher (sprints/mid-distance); Zach Blanton; Corey Gavin (distance); Jordan Bunley.
Outlook: It's not as if Fostoria doesn't have veterans or upperclassmen, it's just that the Redmen are youth-heavy this year. And that's not necessarily bad, coach Cousin said.
"Our numbers are great and we will have an opportunity to fill all the events. The freshmen we are gaining were standout athletes during their junior high experience," she said.
"They've had that experience of going further, so they know what it is to take it to the state level," she said of the freshmen. "I tell them they're going to be competing now against higher-ranked kids because you're going to be going against seniors now. The age difference is going to make a big difference, but they seem to have a good attitude. They're excited about the upcoming season. I'm just hoping that excitement carries over to when we get out there and start competing."
Twenty-two of the team's 32 athletes come from the freshman and sophomore classes, but there will be experience to lead them.
Matheny, who also ran cross country, returns after reaching the regional last year in the 800.
However, he's the only returning letterwinner for the boys with distance experience. Four of the other five veterans are sprinters and jumpers and the fifth is thrower.
Coach Cousin said she would like to see her letterwinners more spread out among the events because of the leadership they'll have to provide.
"The ones that we do have, they have a big job to do," she said. "They have to make sure that kids stay on task, they have to make sure they're good leaders for them."
And while the youth will bring challenges, they will also add a lot of needed depth, coach Cousin said.
"Showing up at NBC's is going to really be an eye-opener for some of the teams in the league. The boys should do well at relay meets," she said. "Not only that, we are going to have a decent number of guys that we will see and hear about in the individual events, as well as team [events]."

Every year, millions of men have an annual prostate specific antigen, or PSA test, to detect prostate cancer.
But the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force says the test is often inaccurate and that it does more harm than good.
Now, despite objections from urologists, the government panel is recommending that healthy men no longer get a PSA test.
"If we truly appreciate the problem with men's health, we're going to work hard to find a screening test that actually works before we make it widely available to the population again," said Dr. Otis W. Brawley, chief medical officer of the American Cancer Society.
The panel claimed men with tiny, cancerous tumors that would otherwise not kill them often have surgery that results in incontinence, impotence or even death.
Still, the American Urological Association disagrees, saying it's "inappropriate and potentially irresponsible to issue a blanket statement against [PSA] testing."
The Obama administration said Medicare will still pay for the PSA test.
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force also previously recommended that women begin getting breast cancer screenings at age 50, instead of at age 40.

SharePoint Online makes all the collaboration, content sharing and communication capabilities of SharePoint available through the cloud.
Excerpted from "Microsoft SharePoint Online: An Overview for Enterprise IT Professionals," published by Microsoft Corp.
The success of any enterprise relies in part on systems and processes that facilitate communication and collaboration. Corporate intranets are an integral part of doing business in large organizations. They support around-the-clock collaboration across physical and temporal boundaries, and enable new communication channels with partners, suppliers and customers.
Microsoft SharePoint technologies have played a huge role in advancing communication and collaboration. Thousands of organizations around the world use SharePoint 2010 products to share corporate information, implement document management and workflows, publish reports, and perform other vital tasks.
Now another powerful technology augments SharePoint 2010: Microsoft SharePoint Online. SharePoint Online, part of the Microsoft Office 365 suite for online productivity solutions, provides a platform for large organizations to enhance and extend the functionality of existing "on-premises" SharePoint deployments using cloud-based services. SharePoint Online provides a single, integrated location where people can:
While there are differences between managing the "on-premises" and cloud-based versions of SharePoint, IT professionals can easily use their existing skills in the SharePoint Online environment. Its intuitive interface simplifies tasks such as creating portals and collaboration sites, setting up users and establishing permissions, implementing powerful search tools, and building business process and forms workflows.
SharePoint Online requires minimal extra cost and overhead because there's no need to physically deploy any software on-site, and because Microsoft assumes much of the operational burden of managing the IT infrastructure. As a cloud-based service, organizations simply subscribe to SharePoint Online. It's available in two versions, both offered through flexible user subscription licenses that include access to either the entire Office 365 suite or to individual services:
With either version, Microsoft handles the management of certain core IT infrastructure functions, including management of the server hardware, the Windows Server layer and the SharePoint Online farm. Because SharePoint Online is hosted by Microsoft in redundant, geographically dispersed datacenters, it benefits from mission-critical availability and reliability. It's also governed by the same security policies and protocols that are used for vital enterprise applications.
SharePoint Online can serve a wide range of enterprise use cases. For example, organizations could extend an existing intranet to remote locations, such as branch or retail outlets. Other use cases include creating an external Web site for events or limited-time projects, or sites that provide partners or suppliers with carefully controlled access to corporate information, such as product specifications or inventory supplies. With SharePoint Online, organizations can create the most common and useful kinds of sites. These include:
This variety of possible use cases and sites demonstrates how SharePoint Online is ideal for hybrid enterprise intranet deployments. It lets organizations selectively create, distribute and provide access to information and workloads, while tightly controlling access to data that resides behind firewalls in on-premises SharePoint implementations, or in other line-of-business systems.
Microsoft designed SharePoint Online for fast setup, configuration and management, through an intuitive interface for users and administrators. This section provides an overview of the system requirements and essential deployment considerations, and discusses how to use the SharePoint Online administration console to manage users and sites.
Here's a list of the system requirements and software required to access SharePoint Online and other Microsoft Online Services:
Operating Systems:
System Software:
Client Applications
Microsoft Online Services Connector
Browser Software
Once an organization decides to use SharePoint Online, there are several essential deployment factors to consider. At a high level, IT professionals should:
The SharePoint Online administration console is a clear, easy-to-understand interface that administrators use to manage site collections and user profiles, establish parameters for using Microsoft InfoPath forms, and access the Term Store Management Tool. The administration console provides a single location from which administrators can manage all of the Web sites and pages created in SharePoint Online.
Depending on the size of an organization and the volume of content, it can be useful to create sub-sites, because SharePoint Online can support hundreds or even thousands of sites. You can organize sites and sub-sites in any number of ways, including by department or team, by functional purpose, by content, by customer or project, or by permission levels or sensitivity.
Top-level sites and sub-sites, including team sites and intranet sites, allow for different levels of control over features and settings. Using this hierarchy, administrators can allow users to have a main working site for an entire team, plus individual working sites and shared sites for side projects. Additionally, you can create separate site collections for different divisions or for external Web sites. How you separate site collections depends on the size of your organization and your business needs.
Administrators can designate individuals as site collection owners, and as site-level owners. This capability allows IT departments to create hierarchies of control over sites so that daily management of specific tasks can be delegated to the most appropriate departments or individuals.
Large organizations can also use SharePoint Online to set up Web sites—including sites with separate domain names. To retain control over the number of sites created and the bandwidth that they consume, administrators can establish site-creation policies and can conduct regular scans to see what sites are used and which can be removed due to lack of use.
When planning a SharePoint Online deployment, it's important to determine what information is needed for users. This information will be stored in user profile properties and should reflect the privacy and policy settings of the organization. User properties are important because they're used to find users, create audiences to use when targeting content, and establish relationships between colleagues and workgroups.
SharePoint Online provides a set of default user profile properties. Administrators should review these properties and the policies that apply to them before they decide which properties to keep or remove and which additional properties to create. Some user profile properties can be indexed by People Search, and some can be replicated to all site collections.
The default user profile properties can be supplemented with additional properties—such as term sets and strings—that establish key information not otherwise available. For example, a profile property could be named "favorite hobby" or "specialty," and then associated with the term set "hobbies" or "specialties" from the Managed Metadata Service. Users who update their profiles can then select a term in the term set as a value for their profile. This information can be used in the People Search feature to quickly find colleagues with shared interests or specific subject matter expertise.
In SharePoint Online, permission levels are collections of permissions that allow users to perform a set of related tasks. For example, the Read permission level includes the View Items, Open Items, View Pages and View Versions permissions, all of which are needed to view pages, documents and items in SharePoint Online. Permissions can be included in more than one permission level. Permissions can be inherited, so it's important to examine what permissions are being granted to users and groups of users.
It's a good idea to avoid assigning permissions directly to individual users, because it makes it difficult to track and manage who has access to sites. Instead, assign permissions to groups, and then assign individual users to the appropriate groups. A group is a set of users that's defined at the site-collection level for easy management of permissions.
After creating a user account, an administrator might assign the account to one or many security groups. A security group is usually a collection of employees grouped together based on their roles in the organization. Typically, all the people in a group perform the same or similar kinds of tasks, such as "Human Resources" employees. People in this group would have security permissions to view and work with information that's not available to other people in the organization. It's recommended that administrators perform scheduled scans of content to make sure that the structure of assignments covers all the different ways that users employ SharePoint.
SharePoint Online receives user profile information in one of two ways: through identities established during initial setup of Microsoft Online Services, or through synchronization with an organization's on-premises Active Directory service.
In the Microsoft Online Services method, the organization's Office 365 directory service provides regularly scheduled one-way synchronization of user information. Users can also edit their profiles manually, usually through their My Profile page. User profiles are helpful for identifying connections among users, such as common managers, workgroups, group membership and sites. User profiles also contain information about user interests, and help users locate subject-matter experts for a particular area by using the People Search feature.
Organizations with existing Active Directory instances can use the directory service to set up users in SharePoint Online. This is accomplished through Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS), a Microsoft solution for building federated identity management solutions that extend an organization's existing Active Directory deployment. Active Directory synchronization requires administrative privileges for both SharePoint Online and for the Active Directory instance behind the firewall.
ADFS uses single sign-on (SSO) technologies to authenticate a user to multiple related Web applications, including the full Office 365 suite, over the life of a single online session. ADFS accomplishes this by securely sharing digital identity and entitlement rights, or "claims," across security and enterprise boundaries. While ADFS allows user profiles to be migrated and synchronized with SharePoint Online, Active Directory information only goes in one direction—from the on-premises deployment to SharePoint Online. This ensures that user information in SharePoint Online reflects the most current data behind the firewall, while protecting the network.
Note that SharePoint Online does not require a separate sign-in client application—users log in through a browser interface. After user profiles are imported, users access SharePoint Online with either their Active Directory login or their Windows Live ID credentials.
Daily management of users in SharePoint Online is straightforward. The administration console allows you to grant or deny access to the service by selecting or deleting users. Administrators can also grant administrative rights to additional users, designate specific users as site collection owners, or set permissions and license levels for standard or remote users.
SharePoint Online also lets organizations collaborate with users outside of the organization by giving them permission to access resources on internal sites. This capability is primarily intended to simplify document and information sharing, and does not fulfill typical enterprise requirements for a full extranet solution.
To allow these external users to access a SharePoint Online site, an administrator must enable the Manage Share by Email feature in the SharePoint Administration Center. Doing so gives every site collection administrator in the environment the option to enable external sharing on their sites. Site collection administrators can then enable external user invitations for their collections, after which site owners and designers can send an e-mail invitation to external users to access their sites. It's a good idea to perform regular scans and security checks to hide or delete unused or old sites, and to ensure that no individuals have unauthorized access to a site.
Only external users with a valid Windows Live ID user name and password—or Microsoft Online Services ID—can access the site, and the invitation expires after one use. Once an external user is a member or visitor on a site, that user can be added to any other site in any other site collection in the environment.
SharePoint Online includes a wealth of features that allow organizations to deploy and use applications, tools, and solutions that bolster communications and collaboration among users, and enhance business processes.
There's also a rich set of tools and solutions that are available for immediate use. These include blogs, wikis and discussion forums; calendars; content tagging; Visio diagrams; and the ability to edit Microsoft Access databases.
SharePoint Online provides an intuitive administration console where IT pros can create sites, provision users and support customized work on sites and business solutions. It's not designed to replace on-premises SharePoint deployments. Instead, it gives IT professionals a rich platform for responding to business needs with minimal cost and IT resources. It also provides an excellent opportunity for organizations to test the viability of cloud-based computing for essential business operations and to plan for the interaction of on-premises and online processes.
As with all Office 365 offerings, the IT administrators stay in control. IT teams administer the setup, customization and access to SharePoint Online. They can also delegate authority for specific tasks through Role-Based Access Controls, or RBACs. Additionally, Microsoft works with a select set of vendors that specialize in managing and creating custom solutions for SharePoint Online implementations. With SharePoint Online, IT professionals have a low-risk, low-cost cloud service to significantly enhance business operations.

Scientology led Kidman's kids turn away from her
From : http://omg.yahoo.com/news/scientolog...n--report.html
When Nicole Kidman was served with divorce papers by Tom Cruise in 2001, she didnt just lose a husband she also lost the relationship she had with her two adopted children with the actor, Isabella and Connor. In the 11 years since the split, the Rabbit Hole actress has only been seen with the kids a handful of times and she has gone on record to say they dont even call her Mom. Now, Vanity Fair is revealing why: because she was not a Scientologist, like their father.
In the magazines October issue, special correspondent Maureen Orth gives an in-depth look into Cruises controversial religion. In addition to reporting that he auditioned women to be his wife before Katie Holmes, Orth also claims that members of the church turned Isabella and Connor, who were 8 and 6 respectively at the time, against their mother. "The central problem [in the marriage] was Nicole did not want to deal with Scientology," former high-ranking Scientologist Marty Rathbun tells VF.
After the split from Cruise, Kidman, 45, was labeled a Suppressive Person, or SP, which is what Scientologists call those who they deem toxic to their beliefs and Isabella and Connor, now 19 and 17, were urged to view their mother as an SP. "They rejected Nicole they've been instructed," John Brousseau, who was a Scientologist for 32 years until 2010 and formerly the bodyguard and brother-in-law to church leader David Miscavige, tells VF. "They took a course, P.T.S./S.P., Potential Trouble Source/Suppressive Person, for persons connected in their lives who are an S.P. [Bella and Connor] whispered to me, 'J.B., Nicole is an S.P.! Our mom's an S.P. we hate going and seeing her.'"
Brousseau and other sources tell Orth that Scientology members were also instructed to not see any of Kidmans films. "The Scientology world hated Nicole," Brousseau adds. "People in Sea Org were mandated to see every freaking Tom Cruise movie that came out. But if you ever mentioned an inkling to see a movie with Nicole, oh my God, you'd hear about it."
All claims made by VF, including the report that Isabella and Connor were turned against Kidman, have been adamantly denied by The Church of Scientology. Kidman's rep did not comment to VF or omg! when contacted.
After splitting from Cruise, Kidman went on to marry country singer Keith Urban and has two biological children of her own: Sunday Rose, 4, and Faith Margaret, 21 months.
It was denied by their church (they are real nuts if they confirm it) but what the hell is it about Scientology?

It's a cult. One of the hallmarks of a cult is to remove any support network a member has that could lead them away from the cult. This involves encouraging the abandonment of existing friends and family and to shun and ostracize anyone who leaves.

The Obama administration is forcing a senior couple out of their home because it sits on federal property.
Joyce Spencer is 77 years old and her husband Ralph is 80.
The couple has owned their cabin on Nevada's Lake Mead, a national recreation area, since the 1970s.
Several of these kinds of stories related to the government shutdown have people shaking their heads. Is the Obama administration winning the public relations war? David Christensen, with the Family Research Council, talks about this and more, on CBN Newswatch, Oct. 8.
According to KTNV in Las Vegas, park officials last week ordered them to move out.
The officials say as long as the government is shut down, no one is allowed to stay overnight on park property.
Cabins on Lake Mead are considered vacation homes and residents are required to have another residence.
The Spencers are staying with relatives.

Queen won't be treated with kid gloves in Sacha Baron Cohen's Freddie Mercury biopic
There may be no screenwriter living who is more of an expert on British politics over the past 15 years than Peter Morgan. The two-time Oscar-nominated writer is best known for his Tony Blair trilogy of "The Deal," "The Queen" and "The Special Relationship," but he's also told the true stories that make up "Frost/Nixon," "The Damned United," "The Last King of Scotland," "Longford" and, to a lesser extent, "The Other Boleyn Girl." Now, Morgan is in the middle of the biggest departures of his career. First to screen is this month's Clint Eastwood directed supernatural drama "Hereafter" and, at the moment, Morgan is penning the script for a Freddie Mercury biopic that will star Sacha Baron Cohen.
To those who aren't aware of the legendary Queen front man, Mercury was one of the most charismatic and imposing stage performers of the the '70s and '80s. As a songwriter he wrote some of the most popular rock anthems of the past 30 years including "We Are the Champions" and "Bohemian Rhapsody." Sadly, only a day after admitting he'd contracted HIV, Mercury died at the age of 45 from complications of AIDS. It's not surprising such a dramatic and powerful story found its way to Sacha Baron Cohen who has a strong resemblance to the rock icon and is a pretty charismatic fellow in his own right. According to Morgan, Cohen had been trying to persuade him to write a biopic on Mercury's life for over two years. Discussing the project during an interview today, Morgan said he'd consistently said "no."
"I'd said to him, 'Look, it's a great idea and you're great casting for him, but I don't know the story.' And it took me that long to find what I was doing with it," Morgan says.
And while he won't comment on what that "in" was Morgan says he's currently deep in the writing process and "it's easier to talk about than 'Hereafter,' because that's what I am doing every day. And I am really loving writing it."
Another reason this biopic is ready to go is because Mercury's former Queen band mates are finally allowing their parts of the story to be told onscreen. In comparison, a major fault of another recent rock biopic, last spring's "The Runways," was that a number of former members of that 70s band , including Lita Ford, expressively forbid their use outside of publicly stated record. That ended up skewing the events in the drama. and leaving much of the "true" story untold. At the moment, that's not an issue for Mercury's tale, but Morgan has made it clear Queen won't get a free ride for giving their O.K.
"It's very much authorized and with their cooperation, but I've told them, 'I won't be particularly kind.' I'm only gonna do this if I have editorial independence," Morgan says. "I don't want anyone to feel this is a movie that Queen has commissioned."
Morgan insinuated the Mercury biopic could be shot and ready for release within the next two years, but was just as emphatic to discuss "Hereafter."
An ensemble drama with three intersecting story lines, "Hereafter" more than anything is a contemplative look at the age old question of what happens to us when we die. One portion of the film is centered on a man with the ability to connect to the "other side" (Matt Damon), but can't handle the burden of such a gift. The second thread follows a French journalist (Cécile De France) who has a near death experience after almost drowning in a Tsunami in Southeast Asia. When she returns home she becomes obsessed with investigating what happened to her much to the detriment of her career. The final plot line is probably the most touching and deals with two twin boys in London who are the victims of a tragic accident.
There wasn't one event in Morgan's life that inspired "Hereafter," but at its core he says he wanted the film to provide comfort without giving emphatic proof the afterlife exists. He notes, "I didn't want there to be a scoop. 'Guess what folks, you can pay $10, we will tell you what happens.' We're not in a position to do that."
That's not to say Morgan didn't research the issue, "the minute that I got onto the Internet you realize you're only a couple of clicks away from quite disturbing lunatics. So, I pulled back a bit and I read a couple of books."
One issue Morgan is keenly aware of are some movie fans expectations of a film that is being marketed with strong emphasis on the more "epic" moments in the picture.
"When it first became public there was a lot of talk about it being like 'The Sixth Sense' or it being a spiritual thriller. And, I sort of thought, 'They are in for a shock," Morgan recalls. "And when they told me Clint was interested, I was excited because I knew he wouldn't try to offer an explanation. I didn't think in his work Mr. Eastwood was a particular religious man and I didn't think he'd want to make it a movie about a scoop."
Morgan also knew the wrong director could take the material in a completely different direction than he'd intended.
"It was really important to me the young boys really did come from quite difficult circumstances in London. So, I was very happy when I heard [Eastwood was on board] because like 'Mystic River' has real social reality and I thought, 'He will give the subject social reality' because it could easily feel too whimsical and never-neverland-ish."
With the recent coalition government seemingly making no one in any of the U.K.'s three parties happy, I ended by asking Morgan if he'd consider revisiting the intriguing world of British politics again.
"I'm always keeping my eyes open and if something comes up," Morgan admits. "I just have to be wary, I suppose, of following in my own footsteps too much. I don't want to become repetitive and I'm very happy to take risks. Even if taking those risks means you fail."
"Hereafter" opens nationwide on Oct. 22.

Cyclist killed in Norwalk, gunman sought
The Press-Telegram: Cyclist killed in Norwalk, gunman sought
From wire services
The victim was riding a bicycle east in the 11200 block of Ferina Street around 6 p.m. Monday when he was confronted by two males in an eastbound vehicle, said Sgt. David Infante of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.
There was an argument and the vehicle's driver shot the victim in the chest with a handgun, Infante said. The victim was pronounced dead at the scene, he said.
The vehicle seen at the shooting scene was described as "dark in color," Infante said.
Anyone with information about the shooting was asked to call the Sheriff's Homicide Bureau at (323) 890-5500.

Since it emerged in the 1990s, masculinity studies has attracted support and criticism from feminist and non-feminist historians alike. Recent work has built upon Robert Connell's Masculinities while broadening critical analysis within the field. Even so, there remains unease within the field about its present situation and future direction.
In one provocative critique, Bryce Traister has argued that masculinity studies has only succeeded in resituating heterosexual white men at the centre of academic inquiry. In another, Toby L. Ditz has suggested that the renewed emphasis masculinity studies places upon the roles of men has encountered a reluctance amongst its scholars to examine gendered narratives of power – narratives that more often than not have privileged these very roles.
Does this absence indicate a new direction in the field? Or does it simply evidence a discomfort with the politics of masculinity studies? These questions, central to this debate, have led us in turn to wonder what the larger politics of masculinity studies are. Women's studies, as a field, developed with a clear political agenda in the 1970s; masculinity studies appear to possess no such agenda. In light of these issues, and the field's relative youth, it seems timely to ask: can the history of masculinity indeed be conceived of as 'left' history?
Left History is seeking submissions for a special issue on Masculinities and History with an emphasis upon articles that engage with current debates surrounding the field and which highlight the politics of its practice.
Left History accepts articles on research and theory, as well as reviews and debates, for consideration in print. We also welcome creative pieces, interviews, debates and photographs for our online edition.
Deadline for Submissions to this issue: October 15th, 2005.

The U.S. and Jurgen Klinsmann officially begin their World Cup qualifying campaign on Friday at 7 p.m. against CONCACAF opponents Antigua and Barbuda.
As far as my research can tell, this is the first time the two opponents have ever met (going back to 1972 when Antigua first began playing internationals.)
If I wasn't obsessed with Sporcle's "Countries of the World," I have to admit I wouldn't even know Antigua and Barbuda, but they're certainly no pushovers.
So while on the surface it looks like an easy win for the United States, as any USMNT fan can tell you, just when things look predictably easy and comfortable, they're suddenly not.
And following a disappointing 0-0 draw against Canada, American goal-scoring is not exactly flying as high as they were when Landon Donovan and company carved up Scotland, 5-1.
So, without further ado, here are some bold predictions for what might be the first step in another successful World Cup qualifying campaign.

Museum of Tyrolean Farmhouses in Kramsach
Tyrol's largest open-air museum is situated near Lake Reintal in Kramsach. An air of nostalgia hangs over the old farms and their interesting pasts.
I feel myself transported to the "Tyrol of old" and go about discovering these witnesses of a culture of the past. On site there are many outbuildings such as a sawmill, flour mill, blacksmiths, threshing floor or the two chapels. All these buildings were dismantled with great care and rebuilt on site.
Particularly charming is the old school bringing back days long forgotten. The whole museum is brought to life by the animals and colourful farmers' gardens.
A varied programme of events, exhibitions and guided museum tours bring life in "the Tyrol of old" closer".
Free admission with the Alpbachtal Seenland Card!

Palm Springs Art Museum evacuated
Today, at around 12:25 PM, Palm Springs police received a report of two suspicious packages at the Palm Springs Art Museum.
One package was located inside the museum and one was located outside the museum. The museum was evacuated as a precautionary measure and Museum Drive was closed between Tahquitz Canyon Way and the north Palm Springs Art Museum parking lot. Tahquitz Canyon Way was also closed in the area around the museum.
The Hazardous Device Team responded to the location, investigated the packages, and determined that they did not present any type of danger.
The packages did not contain any type of hazardous device and whoever left the packages did not appear to have any criminal intent. The museum reopened at about 4:15 PM.
People who had their cars parked in the museum's parking lot were not able to retrieve their vehicles during the incident and local artists with work on display today were asked to pack up and leave.
The museum planned to host a free museum night tonight but has cancelled the event.
The museum will reopen tomorrow at 10 A.M..

- Serve as a source of support and of accurate information
- Do not make assumptions about others sexual orientation or gender identity
- Be willing to discuss issues that have an impact on LGBTQ individuals in a non-judgmental manner
- Be aware of issues, big and small, in the LGBTQ community, for example, use inclusive language, such as partner or significant other, instead of gender specific terms like boyfriend or girlfriend
- Dont preface a statement on LGBTQ issues with Im straight, but...
- React negatively to heterosexist/sexist jokes, slurs, comments, and stereotypes
- Respect the privacy of LGBTQ students
- Publicly acknowledge LGBTQ individuals presence on campus and in society
- Dont think of people as my gay student or my lesbian friend
- Dont expect an LGBTQ person to speak for the entire LGBTQ community
