We love Facebook, beyond the unlimited stalking opportunities it allows, it ALSO introduces us to amazing, out-of-this-world artists like Daniel Roberts!
We had the amazing opportunity to chat with Daniel about his work and his unique Sharpie style. .
Check it.
1. Tell me about yourself! Where are you from? Interests? Likes? Dislikes? Give us the good stuff!
First and foremost, hello, my name is Daniel Roberts from Las Cruces, but currently I'm now living in Albuquerque, NM. I am turning 22 in April, I obtained my associates degree in Business Management. I have completed/sold well over 50+ canvases as well as I've created custom art for a select few. I have participated in approximately 5 local art shows including two in downtown El Paso, TX. I have developed my portfolio over the past 8 years. More than money, I want people to simply see my art and view it as they may. Enjoy it. Every single one of my canvases I have created is made 100% Sharpie products. People always ask me why I create my Sharpie Art, I tell them "because when I actually start creating with a blank canvas and my Sharpie markers, I forget about the rest of the world, forget about my problems and insecurities, about failures and an uncertain future, about everything, I lose myself in each canvas…" Each one of them tells my story; you just have to use your own imagination to bring them to life. My work is unique, original, and overall expressive. My ideas, imagination, and creations become alive through Sharpie markers. ENJOY!!
2. What inspires you to uncap what's inside? How do you use Sharpie markers in your work?
My inspirations and signature art twists, come from different parts of me which are influenced by the different beautiful images of life that surround me. A select few icons that are my muses include Alexander McQueen, Marco Mazzoni, Alex Pardee, High Fructose & GQ Magazines, Brandt Peters as well as other inspirational artists. Music has also been a huge part of my inspirations.
Each and every one of my canvases are made with 100% Sharpie markers. As a final touch and when I decide I'm finished with a final piece, I like to spray paint the boarders with black spray paint to create a perfect fitted frame. This also helps contrast perfectly against the vibrant Sharpie colors on the canvases. I'm always keeping imagination, creativity and the arts alive!! These are only a few things what inspires me to uncap what's inside!!
3. You create some amazing blended looks with the marker ink, any tips on how to achieve this?
I ALWAYS get asked how I am able to manipulate the Sharpie Ink into such a smooth coating. I would love the share my secrets with the world, but that is something I'm also very proud of. I enjoy knowing that it is such a mystery, kind of like chefs "top secret recipes." I like having a unique medium that I truly enjoy creating with. This gives my art an interesting edge, as well as brilliant colors. My personal tip, black Sharpie markers are the key to bringing all of my major and minor details a life.
4. Favorite Sharpie? Why?
By far, my favorite Sharpie markers are the original Fine Point Sharpie. I love the outstanding variety of colors. I have different art supply boxes and bags FULL of black and colored Fine Point, Retractable Sharpie markers, Twin Tip, and of course the Chisel Tip. I use nothing else but 100% Sharpie for my pieces! I recently fell in love with the black Sharpie King Size marker; this truly helps me with a lot of my major detailing, considering my bigger sized canvases.
5. How would you describe your style of art?
I would describe it as Nontraditional–Urban. New Age. Unique Art. I create and design beautiful images, but there is a darker, sicker twist to each piece. I create things that don't exist, but I really wish they did. I like to incorporate elegance and beauty with a touch of obscenity and vulgarity. When I start to create a canvas, I like to find ways where imagination and creativity can be explored with images never seen. [D.R.]
6. Your work is pretty whimsical and other-worldly, how did you get started?
All of my life I have found that different art comes from different minds. I remember creating my first few art pieces throughout school with acrylic, pastel, oils, and other art supplies, but I never found my true medium that inspired me to explore further. I was 13 when I started creating with my Sharpie markers. I was leaving my mark with Sharpie everywhere; it was around 14 when I discovered my ability to manipulate the Sharpie ink. That's when my entire world and visions of art changed. I truthfully started to appreciate the colors and details in each piece. I already loved creating with my little monsters, box-headed figures and strange images, but my "Top Secret Art Recipe" was what brought each character to life and pushed me further to explore my limits as an artist.
7. What projects are you working on currently or can you tell us what you ARE working on next?
Currently, I am working as a barista for Satellite Café in Albuquerque, NM. I've been selected to participate in creating the marketing flyer for "Live in the Living Room", which is different events that are featuring local artists, actors, and musicians that come to perform for in our café. I also have been searching for different art galleries in New Mexico and around the country to try and participate in a show or even just get help in pointing me in the right direction for my kind of art. And always, I'm continuously working on different canvases around my house, which accumulate all of my wall space!! My Sharpie Art is my passion, my inspiration is everywhere!
8. Do you have a soft spot for one of your pieces in particular?
Well, of course I have my favorites, but each canvas contains an emotion of me. My heart, mind, body and soul go into each piece, my life and experiences (good and bad) are what influence my art. There are both happy and very detrimental pieces in my art collection. The titles of each canvas can also usually say a lot, but overall, your imagination is what really shows me as an artist I am telling you a story. I want people to view my art and focus on something nontraditional and let their minds explore.

Great staff. Keen to help u any way any demand u might have Old furniture, old fashion "persian" carpet on Lobby and stairs hall
Fantastic View from Hotel
Great view of the Danube and surrounding countryside. Rooms were clean and very spacious. Staff was extremely courteous.
Quiet, Warm, comfortable, unique location We could not enter the panorama terrace (not an important issue)
Good location overlooking Danube. Excellent restaurant and good breakfast. Steep approach road if on bike or foot.
River view. Parking site.
View and enviroment
Lovely staff, great food, nice rooms, excellent views. The pool was a bit run down
We had a lovely view of the danube and the mountains. the shower had good water pressure. The reception, bar and restaurant staff were courteous and efficient I was disappointed that there was no shampoo or moisturiser in the bathroom. I did not read the guest reviews.
nice design, good personell, good restaurant - a litle bit to expensive charged internet, price bigger than mobile phone internet, breackfast too expensive, spa service expensive too
air conditioning in our room We arrived by bike and the hotel directed us to a municipal car park that was open all night not into their own carpark
Would Not recommend To go there again. Service Staff was unfriendly and we didnt get the Room Type we paid for. Our recommendation: Stay Away, there are much better Hotels in Linz for a Business Trip :-( Would Not recommend To go there again. Service Staff was unfriendly and we didnt get the Room Type we paid for. Our recommendation: Stay Away, there are much better Hotels in Linz for a Business Trip :-(
- The Staff was very fiendly. - The Room and Bathroom were very clean. - It had some amenities I was not expecting, like Hair Drier, Shampoo, Body Wash, Hair Caps, Nailfiles, Shoe Cleaner, Hand Cream. - The hotel looks kind of Old from the outside. - Breakfast was a little bit expensive (13Euros) Parking also (12Euros per day) . - We (my wife and I) asked for a double room and they gave us a room with two Twin Beds, this was not specified in the booking, so maybe it was our mistake because we did't ask for a Double Bed (Queen Size). - The bath tub was not quite OK, it was clean, but the drainage spout didn't work, so almost all the water remained inside the tub. We realized about it the next morning; but, because we only stayed for 1 night, we didn't ask for another room.
The room decor. We can´t desconect the air conditioning during the night, so it was cold.
Nice location in a park and within walking distance of the center of Linz. Bus 26 stops across the road and takes you to the Hauptmarkt in less than 5'. Good restaurant and cosy bar. Free WiFi in all the rooms. Floor in the wellness area is very slippery, I fell and had to be taken to hospital.
Very good and efficient staff
Everything was perfect. None.
Quite and atmosphere
It was good for a night's stay, especially while travelling for business. I would not mind staying again. The arrangement for internet connection was a bit hotch-potch.
you can walk both to Hauptplatz and Main Station within 10 mim.
very central location and comfortable
Route indication, difficult to find and difficult to find a parking.
Room style and furniture, central location of the hotel None.
I have stayed several times and the staff have always made me feel welcome
location was ok, in the middle of Linz After 10hrs in our car we were happy to arrive at 19:00pm. It took about 15 minutes before some one of the staff turened up at teh reception. Reception should be staffed till 22:00 hrs. What I found very very negative is that my credit card already was charged before we arrived. Booking.com puts clearly on the website that credit card is only for safety. We were planning to pay with another credit card as the trip was business and I used my pricate card fot the booking. There was no "sorry"or whatever and it was already paid so could not be changed. I really think only for this this hotel should be banned! Last thing, not important but nevertheless. One of the benfits of the executive room is a free newspaper. We never had one!
My room was beautiful and well put together. The hotel itself was great. The location is awesome - close to shops and restaurants, and not far from the train station or old town. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. The pillows were a little floppy and I'm not used to the European style blankets.
The staff were wonderfully helpful, the room was beautiful, everything worked fine. Nothing we did not like!
I appreciated the very quiet room so centrally located in the city. The hotel fitness center was very poorly sized, located and equipped.
Typical Business Hotel
We had a great room, it was huge, we enjoyed our stay very much at this hotel and would recommend it Just the color of the bedroom = Green!!!!!!!!!
The hotel is clean and well equipped but lacks character and is quite expensive when compared to alternative types of accomodation,
The location as it is close to the centre with easy access to museums, shops and town resturants. It is modern, spacious and clean. The bed is uncomfortable with large soft pillows. I could not sleep on first night. The TV monitor fixed to the wall in the corner of the room and not facing the bed. That made viewing uncomfortable. The room is supplied with plastic chair. I prefer a soft one.
The room was clean an everything worked Nice sunny room in the morning The breakfast was too expensive, so we did not make use of this facility. We were at the front of the building and therefore quite noisy from traffic in the morning, when we opened the window. However, the hotel can do nothing about this. The back of the hotel is quieter, but less sunny.
Good value for money.
location. Comfortable room. Pleasant cafe/bar. Very expensive breakfast
Room is very smart, contemporary and well-designed. Staff are pleasant and helpful. Good location--hotel is only a fifteen minute walk from the main town square, and a couple of minutes from the tram line. Highly recommended. The charge for Internet use is very expensive for someone who is not on a business expense account. (In fairness though, they did notify me of the price before I used it. Also, there are internet cafes nearby.)
Location of the hotel - very close to the pedestrian and shopping area, a lot of interesting places nearby the hotel. The hote is well accessible by car. I have paid about 30 EUR for parking instead of 15 as was declarated.
In the heart of the city. Price No complaints
Clean, quiet
Well-designed, comfortable modern hotel, conveniently located near the main street of Linz but very quiet. Excellent breakfast.
Wonderful hotel, nice design, in the center of the city, great staff. we had a problem only with the heating system: in our room it was broken and the first nigh the inside temperature was too high. thenext evening we changed room and it was ok. perhaps the hotel waited too much to tell us about the heating problem and move us in an other accomodation. Anyway a beautiful hotel. We suggest to try the hotel restaurant: simply wonderful. In the room the heating system didn't work and the hotel informed us about this problem only after a 27°c nigh in the room! They would have immediately to move us in a new accomodation
The design and the location The music in the breakfast room. And all the marquisette everywhere in the hotel.
Location. Bright, clean rooms. Internet cord not long enough.
Very nice environment and quiet area. The hotel stands just by the old cathedral in the old town. This hotel has no bath tub but good shower.
A beautifull design hotel with a fantastic view on the cathedral. In down town, easy to reach and a big parking. I also suggest the hotel restaurant.
It is one of the best out there! I don't have anything bad to say about it! Excellent gourmet breakfast, great location,professional staff, incredible ambiance!
Beautiful building in an excellent location. The rooms are great and you have access to the sauna area which is very nicely done - it is German style however which means nude...breakfeast also very good.
The location of the hotel is marvelous, and I liked the design aproach down to the details. Fantastic experience. Loudness of business group in front of hotel till midnight.
Everything was fine I liked everything ))
I liked the htel room, it was fearly big. The breakfast was excellent for this price. The bathroom was not too roomy.
We had a very nice upgrade for our anniversary. The variety at the breakfast was very good. There was no concierge service for our baggage.
The staff were very friendly, rooms great as were the restaurant and bar. No Iron & ironing board plus No tea or coffee making facilities which was quite disappointing. I think this is a must to have when you have international business travellers who work during the day as well as very early mornings.
no single rooms
Even though there was some lobby consruction underway, everything about the hotel was excellent. The breakfast exceeded even our highest expectations. It was great experiencing U.S.-style accommodations, especially real air-conditioning once again, a long way from home in the USA. Courtyard by Marriott continues to be at the top of my favorites list for consistently good service and excellent quality. Thanks.
The breakfast There was no free internet in the rooms
Although I booked a double room, they had a single room booked, luckily there was no problem to change to a double room. I double checked my printout of the booking form to be sure the mistake was not mine.
Space of the room, comfort of the bed, comfort of the hotel, parking close Parking price really abusive (12€ per 24hours for hotel guests!), price of breakfast (13€ per person per day) so we didn't take any, only 1 towel per person in the room
good and friendly staff. good breakfast buffet. generally satisfied. location
The hotel staff are very diligent and friendly. Dainty breakfast was served.
The staff were very welcoming and made a point of greeting us each time they saw us. Breakfast was good. The carpet in the lift was not clean, giving a bad first impression. The toilet was not particularly clean. The mattress was very hard. There was no air-conditioning and as there is a tower clock very close which chimes every 15 minutes, our sleep was disturbed.
Staff were very friendly and helped me with my terrible German. I think the owner/manager was berating his staff in the middle of the dining room during breakfast which struck me as a little unnecessary.
What I liked most was the friendly and competent staff. I strongly recommend staying at the City Hotel in Linz.
It was handy to the areas I wanted to see in the City as well as being close to the Railway Station. The room was comfortable. No safe in the room. The curtain around the window was useless as I am not a tall person and I could not draw it around the curve of the window. Also, I like having a window open and then the curtain wouldn't move at all because of the window - it would have been better if the curtain went straight across in front of the desk.
The hotel had free internet access for patrons. There wasn't any adaptors for mobile phone or camera chanrging.
The bathroom didn't smell good. Althought we had complained about it, the problem was not solved. The hotel does not fit the Ibis quality standart.
Location: easy access from the station
easy access from train station
Helpful, friendly staff who spoke excellent English. Locality of hotel near town and airport. General cleanliness of hotel was excellent. Good facilities too.
room was smelling of cigarettes
Location See above.
Location is convenient for people who want to catch the train early in the morning. Considering the rate, the hotel is just average.
Fair quality of the room for the price and nice staff Poor breakfast if having in mind the famous Austrian meals... :)
Location, value for money underground garage could not be reached via elevator - heavy work via a staircase, to get your luggage in your room...
comfortable rooms. good parking. good value design of rooms is a bit dated
The hotel is easily accessible from the Autobahn from Germany (Munich & Regensburg) and Austria (Salzburg & Vienna). The location on the Danube is pleasant with good views from the rooms facing the river. Although close to a main bridge the rooms are not noisy. The restaurant is good and the outside terrace (we had dinner and breakfast) very plesant. Linz is not a particularly attractive city (industrial) but is close to lovely countryside. We visited Cesky Krumlov which is about 90 minutes drive before drving across country to Vienna and Bratislava. I dislike hotels that advertise wifi internet throughout the hotel and then charge by the hour. Today the vast majority of hotels I use have free internet and I wish all would do so - even if they add 1 euro to the room rate. Also the signal was poor. Also the hotel advertises public parking and again charges. Most people using this hotel will drive and the parking is under the building. Again I wish these hotels would include parking in the rate.
Comfortable clean room & good breakfast No access to the river without walking across a field or having to cross a motorway to get there from town without walking a long way around. Surrounding buildings very industrial.
Superb breakfast choice Tea & coffee making facilities in the room would be a great addition. Access to the hotel is v confusing, fortunately we arrived when it was still daylight. The hotel surroundings are a bit bleak.
Fabulous setting on the Danube, comfy hotel, good parking
Friendly staff and location was excellent. There is no free wi-fi in the rooms or free internet access in the lobby.
This is the third time we stopped at this hotels, it was just a short stop on our way to Switzerland, but it was very pleasant. The beds were very comfortable, the food was good, and the staff very friendly. I recommend it to anyone who needs a short stop over night in Linz. Nothing negative about this hotel crosses my mind.
very convenient location
Very helpful and pleasant staff
The staff was extremely friendly and flexible. The room was nice and comfortable as well as spacious, clean and rather modern.
Free and good Wifi connection. Staff was friendly both at reception and in the restaurant. Hotel in desperate need of renovation. Bathroom was awful (showerhead broken, (plastic) parquet coming off etc. When I checked in, about 40 Italian teenagers with teachers mingled in the lobby, very loud (it takes two Italian adults to be loud) and impression of having arrived at Youth Hostel. The turkey I had in the restaurant was a piece of industrial meet without taste, at least the waiter agreed with me, but his argument that turkey always taste of nothing was a bit of a surprise,,,,,
Staff were excellent
It was not a 4 star hotel, morelikely a 2 star hotel
Only the lobby looks nice. Room fixtures are very old and poor food at restaurant. The hotel overall does not suit a 4-star rating.
The reception service was exceptional
Excellent service, nice hotel and the room accomodates 4 persons, which is rare these days. Superb breakfast (not included though) and super fast internet line The toilet was very smelly and the shower head didn't hold but otherwise, no complain.
low noise, parking facilities food not as good as expected
I love that you accept pets (my small dog comes everywhere with us!) pleasant reception and family friendly. Although my daughter is older now and does not usually travel with us, it is a pleasure to see families traveling together. wireless internet with an outrageous fee.
no more than two stars for the price I pay the reception, the noise of the guest next to my room
Well located, but very expensive. Costly WiFi and adsl internet connection.
Best location, parking area, good spirit in the hotel, excellent staff's servey, clear managing of stay.
Close to the city center. Nice staff. It was like old and a little dirty, specially the bathroom.
Very close to the center, excellent and rich breakfast buffet! Room was nice and clean, bath-room well-equipped! Recommended!
Staff was extremely helpful. Well equipped, clean and functional room and bathroom. Good breakfast choice. Small children/babies are welcome. On top of it, it is run by charity organization. All in all, we enjoyed out stay a lot.
The ability to use the nearby gym for free
Excellent breakfast buffet, worth every extra cent spent on it!
It seems to be an Hotel of **** even if they said that it is only ***. It is really near the downtown, and the staff it is really helpfull. Maybe they have to improve theyr use of english, but i Think it doesn't matter very much.
Very friendly and very professional english speaking staff. Breakfast is excellent! Having a bible in the room might be offended. Religion is a very sensitive and personal issue. Some visitors might feel this as forced religious propaganda.
How very central the hotel was to everything, buses, trams,shops & resurants I would have liked to have seen a coffee lounge, because when you come back to yr rooms, it would be nice to enjoy a drink before bedtime
Good location.
The staff was great. Breakfast very good. Excellnt location.
I had a central location and the old part of the city was all around. Parking was at a public but secure underground car park within 5 mins walk. It had period furniture and a very Austrian feel. Althouhg it had a period feel which was good, the hotel could be re-painted and smartened up. The breakfast was just adequate.
Very friendly personnel
The hotel has a very good location right in the main square of Linz, very good for exploring the city. There is no parking of the hotel. Parking in the underground square, although in theory had a reduction offered for the hotel, was only available for stays of 2 or more nights (which was not indicated when doing reservation or in the hotel's website). In the end we had to pay 20 euros for less than a day parking. Besides, most rooms of the hotel are in a back extension which do not have views of the square. In fact they do not have views at all, my room just faced a wall of the next building. Based on these reservations I would not stay again in the hotel but would choose another one with in-site cheaper parking and with more natural light and views from the rooms.
rooms - location parking arangment
We enjoyed being in a hotel where we were aware of the antiquity of the building, whilst having very comfortable accommodation and friendly service.
central location in the city
-Nice location in the heart of the city. -Restaurant and furniture.
Rooms quaint, very central. Linz was an exhausting experience (driving & trying to find parking) but hotel lovely!
Beautiful, old hotel. I liked very much that it was in the old town close to beautiful architecture and culture. Easy and fast to get to restaurants, shopping area and old buildings. Nice and helpfulness people working there. I chose this hotel also because it is very old and romantic. The bathroom has many tiles on the floor that were loose and could be lifted up. Room 34
The room was very nice and modern and we were fond of our bathroom:-) the service was good and it was only 15 mins walk from downtown so perfect choice for us.
Everything was fine. Could not say anything about a breakfast - in 3 minutes by walk in the city center direction is perfect cafe! There is free parking 5 minutes walking from hotel, but hotel personal did not tell us about it anything.
Clerk desks>> seem to be not competent enough: they booked someone else to the same room where I stayed, then programmed that person's door electronic key so, that this stranger came accidentally to my room.
The room was excellent and the staff also. Brekfast on the outside terrace was very good. I was having problems with internet because I couldn't log in every time that I wanted.
Rooms are great, and breakfast also Staff is very arogant, and do not have any responsible person.
Nice and convenient. Excellent for business trips.
Room was excellently furnished, staff friendly and helpful, location very convenient for public transport. Quiet neighbourhood.
Hotel is very nice! Room is very compact, clean and tidy.Very big wide screen TV in front of your king size bad, graved in the wall.Pillows are speicaly designed and very comfortable.Every part of your room is used properly.Maybe just lavatory could be joined with toilet in one separate place.Hotel is very modern inside.Real value for money!!! Just 5 minutes by car to city centre-downtown, or 15 minutes walk!!! Nice shift guy at reception did not speak a word of English,but was funny.Breakfast is maybe a bit expencive -13EUR per person, you can go to near local shops and buy cheap foods,if you want to save some money.
location and partnership with "Kurort Bad Schallenbach"
Big rooms and bathroom, relax area, swimming pool
no fresh sqeezed juice for breakfast, some construction works is going behind the hotel (we had the room on the oppsite site so we were happy with location, but one thing is important: the bad there is aquapark actually and lots of kids in there in july and august.
good location, nice hotel
the swimming pool was warm, and although it was 3C outside, I could still use it. very relaxing. very reasonable dinner : half pension costed 16€ 4 dishes. some part of the spa smelled a bit
Restaurant:meals and smoking area No bad points: may be next year improved... Parking and airco/rooms
The interior of the hotel was very beautiful, full of harmony. We stayed in a Deluxe room (although we had booked the standard one) and it was especially lovely.
Excelent relaxation centre Crystal Spa

I am Lynette Nyaggah, candidate for CCA President. I come from a family of teachers and union supporters whose belief in unionism and devotion to teaching prepared me for my role as an activist and advocate. I am your colleague and a professor-leader. I began my CCA work as a Board member representing Rio Hondo and neighboring colleges. Then, I became your CCA Treasurer, committed to processing your reimbursement payments immediately. I became your CCA Vice President, committed to focusing on our locals and building membership and legislative and political involvement. Now I am now committed to serving you as your next CCA president.
I want to make CCA stronger. I believe CCA will become stronger as it continues to strengthen its alliances with its partners: students, administrators, trustees, and community and labor groups. As CCA president, I will continue the good relationships we have cultivated with other faculty unions and groups, and I will build a constructive relationship with CTA, as an equal partner in our fight for faculty rights. We must work together as much as possible for a stronger voice.
I want to make CCA more responsive to its members. I want to make us more transparent and give our membership a clear role in funding decisions. We must always remember that every time we spend money in CCA, it comes from you, and we must be responsible about how we spend it. I am committed to more effective outreach to our members. I promise to visit your campuses and meet your members personally so that they know who is speaking for them across the state. I promise to respond to you quickly and to find ways to set up two-way communication. I want to listen to your ideas and make them part of the plan for our union. I want to devise ways to use your talents and expertise in new initiatives to strengthen our union, and I am committed to encouraging leadership among our members who may never have thought of being leaders. Most importantly, I promise to work with you.
You are the key to everything I will do as CCA President. Without your support, I cannot be an effective leader. In short, you are the reason I am running. We share a love of teaching and a love of our students. Together, we will embrace the new day that's dawning!
I, with many of our members continue to be concerned about the future of CCA and developing leaders that will serve the CCA Board and our members well. The faces currently sitting on the CCA Board because of term limits will soon change, and there must be individuals ready to commit to doing the work. I have been a local chapter president of a relatively large CCA Chapter. I have worked with local political negotiations. As a statewide leader, I have been a part of many discussions that directly and indirectly affect our CCA Organization. I have spoken before the Chancellor's Office Consultation meetings, before the legislature, and carried the CCA message before the meetings of the Student Success Task Force. My public speaking skills allow me to use humor when needed and to use words of caution when they are needed.
Currently CCA is at a crossroad. Several issues are facing this organization as we move into the future. CTA is going through a reorganization that has had an uncertain impact on CCA without consultation. The servicing of local chapters by CTA is of paramount importance. CCA must insist that all staff servicing our chapters are trained in community college law, community college budgeting principles, and understand the community college structure. Now, more than ever, a leader should rise from our organization that can and will lead through these turbulent times and into a place of meeting the needs of our members. I will "Stand Tall" for the organization in any given venue.
In being a good leader one must not let fear guide the decision making process. Facts, logic, and working with others will guide one to the right decision. I will continue to build relationships and coalitions with the leadership at our locals, with CTA Board members, the NEA leadership, and other faculty/labor organizations that support the goals
of CCA.
If I am elected CCA President, I will ensure that there will be transparency of exactly how member's dues are spent, demand competent Local Leadership Support, and establish communication with and commitment to all members as it relates to the effectiveness of The Community College Association. I will stay focused on those issues that define CCA. I will celebrate what we do well, and enhance what needs improving. I will stand up to any organization that tries to remove or diminish the purpose and power of CCA.

About a year ago I tested nine 18-volt impact drivers. Since then, a few new models — Bosch's 25618-02, Makita's BTD 144, and Milwaukee's 2650-20 — have come on the market. This article is a review of these next-generation lithium-ion tools. My co-workers and I used the drivers on remodeling jobs and tested them for runtime. Each arrived in a kit that included two batteries, a charger, and a case.
Standard Features
The new tools are noticeably smaller than the drivers I reviewed last year — 5.75 inches long or less compared with an average of about 6.5 inches long. I consider this an advantage: Small drivers allow you to work in very tight quarters.
Like every other driver on the market, these have built-in LED lights. On the Bosch and Milwaukee tools, the lights turn on when you squeeze the trigger and off when you release it. The Makita's light is a bit different: It comes on when you squeeze the trigger and stays on for a few seconds after you release it — a feature we liked. You can disable the light by pushing a button on the base of the driver.
All three models have good belt hooks — durable, unobtrusive, and configured for use on both sides of the tool.
The Bosch and Makita have rubberized front housings to prevent them from damaging any surfaces they might bump into. The Milwaukee's housing is bare metal with screw heads protruding from the sides. If the driver slips — which in our case happened while we were installing cabinets — there's nothing to prevent it from scuffing finished surfaces.
None of the plastic cases these three tools came in had space to store the large number of 1/4-inch hex-headed attachments I like to bring to jobs. The Makita case seemed a little less sturdy than the others.
Added Features
While some features are common to all impact drivers, others are unique to a single model. On this score, Makita had the other tools beat.
Both it and the Milwaukee have fuel gauges — lamps that indicate the remaining charge. Milwaukee's is activated by a button, so it's easy to determine the remaining charge. This is helpful when you have a bunch of batteries sitting around and want to pick the most charged. The light on the Makita driver comes on when the battery is down to 20 percent, and flashes just before the battery runs out. There's no way to check the battery when it's not in the tool.
Milwaukee's charger has a two-pole pass-through plug like those found on strings of Christmas-tree lights — a nice feature that gives you an extra spot to plug something in.
If you own a cordless driver long enough, you'll eventually have to replace the brushes. This is a simple repair with the Bosch, because its brushes are easy to get to. The Milwaukee's brushes are less accessible. The Makita's motor is brushless, which makes it more durable (no brushes to repair) and efficient than a standard motor.
Among the other features unique to the Makita are an electronic speed switch — a button on the tool's base that allows the user to toggle between three hammering force settings — a glow-in-the-dark nose that makes the tool easy to find, and a trigger that prevents the battery from being accidentally discharged. The speed switch in particular is a wonderful feature.
All three impact drivers have the power to perform just about any remodeling task. I bought a 14.4-volt impact driver five years ago and the three drivers in this test blow it out of the water. However, my co-workers and I were surprised to discover that it's possible to have too much power — that a driver could be too aggressive for some kinds of finish work.
We observed this with the Milwaukee. Although it's not noticeably more powerful than the other models, its impact mechanism seems to hit harder, increasing the likelihood of cam-out. This became apparent when we were driving long Phillips-head screws into hard material. We had to be extra careful with the Milwaukee when joining cabinets together, because one slip could send the tool banging into a finished surface. This problem occurred less frequently with lags and square-drive screws.
I tested runtime by driving 1/4-inch-by- 4-inch lags into a pressure-treated 4x4 without drilling pilot holes.
The Bosch and Makita were comfortable to use throughout the test, but after about 80 lags, the Milwaukee became so hot it was hard to hold. All three tools had enough power to easily drive the lags, and with their lithium-ion batteries the power didn't decline until the last few fasteners. The Makita drove 124 lags, the Bosch 114, and the Milwaukee 102.
The Bosch came with an optional set of smaller, lighter batteries (SlimPacks), which ran a bit weaker than the standard batteries and sank only 40 lags. Milwaukee and Makita also make smaller-capacity batteries, but I didn't receive them for testing.
Cold conditions. To see how the batteries worked when cold, I left the tools in a 0°F freezer overnight with the battery portion — protected by a plastic bag — immersed in water. This created a frozen chunk of ice around the battery, which meant it would not heat up as much when I took the tool out of the freezer and ran the test in warm weather. Under these conditions, the Makita drove 95 lags, the Milwaukee 87, and the Bosch 76.
Drop test. My final test involved dropping the tools from 8 feet onto concrete. I dropped each one three times — upside-down, right-side-up, and tumbling. All survived with nothing more than minor scuffing.
The Bottom Line
The Bosch is a good tool, but nothing about it really stands out. It's powerful and compact and has an extensive rubber coating — but its nose is somewhat blunt, making it a little difficult to grab the bit-release ring.
The Milwaukee feels solid and durable, but it's heavier than other models. As a remodeler, I need a driver that can perform both rough and delicate tasks. This one hammers too aggressively for delicate work — a problem compounded by the metal nose with exposed screw heads.
The Makita BTD 144 is the best of the three. It's lighter and slightly smaller than the others and has a better runtime. For me, its many added features — especially the electronic control for managing the hammering force — clinched the deal.

The courses in physics emphasize the concepts and techniques that have led to our present state of understanding of the physical universe. They are designed to relate the individual parts of physics to the whole rather than to treat them as separate disciplines. In the advanced courses, the student applies these concepts and techniques to increasingly independent studies of physical phenomena. Opportunities exist for interdisciplinary work, for participation by qualified majors in research with members of the faculty, and for training in electronics, instrumentation and experimentation, including computer interfacing and programming.
Required Introductory Courses for the Major and Minor
The introductory courses required for the physics major and minor are Physics 103, 104 or 101, 102 and Mathematics 101, 102. Advanced placement and credit is given for a score of 4 or 5 on the AP tests. Alternatively, students may take the departmental advanced placement examinations just prior to or during the first week of classes. Entering students are strongly urged to take departmental placement examinations in physics and mathematics if they had reasonably strong courses in high school. It is best for a student considering a physics major to complete the introductory requirements in the first year. However, the major sequence is designed such that a student who completes the introductory sequence by the end of the sophomore year can major in physics.
Major Requirements
Beyond the four introductory physics and mathematics courses, nine additional courses are required for the major. (Haverford courses may be substituted for Bryn Mawr courses where appropriate.) Five of the nine courses are Physics 206, 214, 215, 306 and Mathematics 201. The remaining four courses must be chosen from among the 300-level physics courses, any one course from among Astronomy 305, 320 and 322, or any one course from among Mathematics 303, 312 and 322.
The department has been very successful in preparing students for graduate school in physics, physical chemistry, materials science, engineering and related fields. To be well prepared for graduate school, students should take Physics 302, 303, 308, 309 and 331. These students should also take any additional physics, mathematics and chemistry courses that reflect their interests, and should engage in research with a member of the faculty by taking Physics 403. Note that Physics 403 does not count toward one of the 13 courses required for the major.
Typical plans for a four-year major in physics are listed below.
Four-Year Plan meeting the minimum requirements for the major:
1st Year
Physics 103, 104
Mathematics 101, 102
2nd Year
Physics 214, 215, 206
Mathematics 201
3rd Year
Physics 306 and one (or two) other 300-level physics course(s)
4th Year
Three (or two) other 300-level physics courses
Four-Year Plan providing adequate preparation for graduate school:
1st Year
Physics 103, 104
Mathematics 101, 102
3rd Year
Physics 306 and either 303, 309 or 308, 302
4th Year
Physics 331 and either 308, 302 or 303, 309
Physics 403
The physics program at Bryn Mawr allows for a student to major in physics even if the introductory courses are not completed until the end of the sophomore year, as long as calculus is taken in the first year. It is also possible, although difficult, for the student majoring in three years to be adequately prepared for graduate school. To do this, the outline below should be supplemented with (at least) Physics 403 in the 4th year.
Three-Year Plan meeting the minimum requirements for the major:
1st Year
Mathematics 101, 102
2nd Year
Physics 103, 104, 206
Mathematics 201
3rd Year
Physics 214, 215, 306 and 302 or 331
4th Year
Three 300-level physics courses
The A.B. degree may be awarded with honors in physics. The award is based on the quality of original research done by the student and a minimum grade point average. The research must be described in a senior thesis presented to the department. A grade point average of 3.4 or higher in 200- and 300-level physics courses (excluding Physics 380 and 390) and an overall grade point average of at least 3.0, both calculated at the end of the senior year, must be achieved.
Minor Requirements
The requirements for the minor, beyond the introductory sequence, are Physics 206, 214, 215, 306; Mathematics 201; and two additional 300-level physics courses.
Minor in Computational Methods
Students may major in physics and receive a minor in computational methods. Students would need to complete the requirements for the Physics major including two of the following courses: Physics 305 (or 316 at Haverford), 306 and 322. Further, students would have to complete Computer Science 110, 206 and 231 and one of Computer Science 212, 225 (at Haverford), 245, 246, 330 or 340 (at Haverford).
Minor in Educational Studies or Secondary-School Teacher Certification
Students majoring in physics may pursue a minor in educational studies or state certification to teach at the secondary-school level. Students seeking the minor need to complete the requirements for the physics major including one of Physics 380, 459 (at Haverford) or 460 (at Haverford), and five additional courses in the Education Program, including a two-semester senior seminar, which requires five to eight hours per week of fieldwork. To earn secondary-school certification (grades 7-12) in physics students must: complete the physics major plus two semesters of chemistry and one semester as a teaching assistant in a laboratory for introductory or intermediate physics courses; complete one year of biology (recommended); complete six education courses; and student-teach full-time (for two course credits) second semester of their senior year.
A.B./M.A. Program
To earn an M.A. degree in physics in the College's A.B./M.A. program, a student must complete the requirements for an undergraduate physics major and also must complete six units of graduate level work in physics. Of these six units, as many as two units may be undergraduate courses at the 300 level taken for graduate credit (these same two courses may be used to fulfill the major requirements for the A.B. degree), at least two units must be graduate seminars at the 500 level, and two units must be graduate research at the 700 level leading to the submission and oral defense of an acceptable M.A. thesis. Students must also demonstrate skill in computing or in a foreign language.

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated March 1st, 2013
DİDEM ÜRER: Master, Mr. Davutoğlu was asked if the region was heading towards sharing a common fate in the Middle East. And he said that the last century in the region, the century after the falling apart of the Ottoman Empire was a parenthesis of an era. He said that now they will be closing this era in which the countries in the region remained apart from each other and by respecting the current borders of each country, he emphasized that they will be turning back to the history. He said; "History was revolting against these borders set in between the countries in the region anyway." And he gave a speech implying the Turkish-Islamic Union.
ADNAN OKTAR: Our Master is amazing. Our Master is a person advocating the Unity of Islam, a person advocating the Turkish Islamic Union. He is a person well suiting his Ottoman ancestry. He is a person expressing the spirit of the government. He is a nice person, our people should trust him. We love him, we support him as well. His path is blessed. His way is the way of the system of the Mahdi. The way of the system of the Mahdi, is the way that is always open. Other ways are always blocked. You might think that you can follow that way, yet you hit your head on the wall. You might imagine that you can follow that way, but you go and hit your head to a stone. When you follow the way of the system of the Mahdi you fly like the birds do. If you do not leave that way, you fly like the birds do, you never come across an obstacle. Because he is on the right path, our dear Minister should go on and he will be successful. Hazrat Khidr is by his side. He will continue on the way of the system of the Mahdi.

[SOLVED: Check the bottom]
Hello all,
I'm a first year "Networking & Administration" student. My father has kindly allowed me to try and crack the encryption on the smaller non-significant kitchen WiFi network in his company office. I wasn't told what the password is but we bet that If I was able to crack it my pops would pay my next semester. I realize that similar introductions are not really relevant to the problem, but I just wanted to highlight the fact that I'm not doing anything illegal.
Straight to the problem. Since the network is WEP-encrypted, I'm running the most common pattern:
With this I was able to capture the MAC of someone in the office who was probably using the Net in his Lunch break - cc:55:ad:29:37:98airodump-ng -c 9 --bssid 00:1c:f0:83:c4:f0 -w petrovi_wep -i wlan0

I intentionally highlighted the AUTH parameter since it returns OPN most of the times but every now and then it comes as SKA, which frankly puzzles me. Is it a SKA or an OPN. I don't know. This is not the airodump-screen from the actual cracking operation as you can see #Data is 0, I just pasted it so it can be seen that AUTH does return either an OPN or SKA result once "Association is successful".CH 9 ][ Elapsed: 56 s ][ 2012-11-11 07:52

And that's about what I do. This way I'm able to capture between 250k and 1.5m IVs. Once I'm done sniffing:aireplay-ng -3 -e "Petrovi" -b 00:1c:f0:83:c4:f0 -h cc:55:ad:29:37:98 wlan0
I also tried live cracking while maintaining airodump-ng with these parameters:bt ~ # aircrack-ng petrovi_wep-02.ivs

Result again was:aircrack-ng -a 1 -0 -n 128 petrovi_wep-02.ivs
At this point you're probably thinking that there's no problem at all. Well let me tell you this. I've tried connecting with this password a gazillion times using all kinds of options:Opening petrovi_wep-02.ivs
Attack will be restarted every 5000 captured ivs.

None of these worked. PWR is good between 40 and 70. However I can't connect using this password. The funny thing is that the first time when I tried this I captured the MAC of another client and also about 1.5 million IVs. Ran it through PTW - same password, again 100% decrypted correctly. I deleted the first .ivs flie because I thought it was bogus.
I tried decrypting with "-K" as well, however it ran for 10 straight hours after which I thought to myself that even if it returns a password successfully, waiting for 10 hours is not a viable option for a professional pentester, so the result is useless even if the pass is correct.
OS: Backtrack 3 HDD installation (KDE)
Machine: DELL Latitude CPi D300XT
Adapter: ALFA awus036h
I already googled this and I found a couple of guys who claim their aircrack-ng also returns non-functional passwords. However all of them receive a working one in a following run and their problem is fixed. I decrypt the same password over and over again and I can't connect at all.
I tried connecting with:
- iwconfig
- some KDE GUI called K Wireless Lan Manager
I have no idea what am I doing wrong. Thanks in advance to all the people who decided to join in and help.
Ok this was a rather stupid mistake from my side. Apparently the AP was somewhat slower to accept connections. I had to increase timeout to 30s and I was able to connect.
Question: I was able to connect and opened Google successfully. However AP kicks me 30-60s (sometimes longer) after I connect. I'm using a fake MAC but I still get kicked. Any idea how to resolve this ?

OpenFOAM (Open Field Operation and Manipulation) CFD Toolbox is a free, open source CFD software package produced by OpenCFD Ltd.
Versions and Availability
Softenv Keys for openfoam on supermike2
|Softenv Key
▶ Softenv FAQ?
The information here is applicable to LSU HPC and LONI systems.
SoftEnv is a utility that is supposed to help users manage complex user environments with potentially conflicting application versions and libraries.
System Default Path
When a user logs in, the system /etc/profile or /etc/csh.cshrc (depending on login shell, and mirrored from csm:/cfmroot/etc/profile) calls /usr/local/packages/softenv-1.6.2/bin/use.softenv.sh to set up the default path via the SoftEnv database.
SoftEnv looks for a user's ~/.soft file and updates the variables and paths accordingly.
Viewing Available Packages
Using the softenv command, a user may view the list of available packages. Currently, it can not be ensured that the packages shown are actually available or working on the particular machine. Every attempt is made to present an identical environment on all of the LONI clusters, but sometimes this is not the case.
$ softenv These are the macros available: * @default These are the keywords explicitly available: +amber-8 Applications: 'Amber', version: 8 Amber is a +apache-ant-1.6.5 Ant, Java based XML make system version: 1.6. +charm-5.9 Applications: 'Charm++', version: 5.9 Charm++ +default this is the default environment...nukes /etc/ +essl-4.2 Libraries: 'ESSL', version: 4.2 ESSL is a sta +gaussian-03 Applications: 'Gaussian', version: 03 Gaussia ....
Listing of Available Packages
See Packages Available via SoftEnv on LSU HPC and LONI.
For a more accurate, up to date list, use the softenv command.
Currently there are some caveats to using this tool.
- packages might be out of sync between what is listed and what is actually available
- resoft and soft utilities are not; to update the environment for now, log out and login after modifying the ~/.soft file.
softenv is available on all LSU HPC and LONI clusters to all users in both interactive login sessions (i.e., just logging into the machine) and the batch environment created by the PBS job scheduler on Linux clusters and by loadleveler on AIX clusters..
Packages Availability
This information can be viewed using the softenv command:
% softenv
Managing Environment with SoftEnv
The file ~/.soft in the user's home directory is where the different packages are managed. Add the +keyword into your .soft file. For instance, ff one wants to add the Amber Molecular Dynamics package into their environment, the end of the .soft file should look like this:
To update the environment after modifying this file, one simply uses the resoft command:
% resoft
Set up your environment to run OpenFOAM
To load OpenFOAM to your environment on clusters using softenv, follow the two steps:
- Add the corresponding softenv key to your .soft file and resoft: you can use the "softenv -k OpenFOAM" command to find out what the keys are;
- The openfoam key makes some changes to the default path which will override the path set by the @default key, please make sure you put openfoam key before the @default key in your .soft file.
To load OpenFOAM to your environment on clusters using module, follow the two steps:
Use the
moduel load openfoam/2.3.0/INTEL-140-MVAPICH2-2.0command to load OpenFOAM to your environment, you can also add this command to your ~/.modules file. You can use the "module av openfoam" command to find out what the module keys are. To query the openfoam module key, use
moduel disp openfoam/2.3.0/INTEL-140-MVAPICH2-2.0.
Source the openfoam bashrc file by using the
source $FOAM_BASHcommand.
Sample script
#!/bin/bash #PBS -A your_allocation #PBS -q checkpt #PBS -l nodes=1:ppn=16 #PBS -l walltime=12:00:00 #PBS -V #PBS -j oe #PBS -N openfoam_test NPROCS=`wc -l < $PBS_NODEFILE` cd /path/to/your/openfoam/case/dir mpirun -np $NPROCS -machinefile $PBS_NODEFILE {openfoamSolverName} -parallel
The script is then submitted using qsub:
$ qsub job_script
where job_script is the name you gave the script file.
▶ QSub FAQ?
Portable Batch System: qsub
All HPC@LSU clusters use the Portable Batch System (PBS) for production processing. Jobs are submitted to PBS using the qsub command. A PBS job file is basically a shell script which also contains directives for PBS.
$ qsub job_script
Where job_script is the name of the file containing the script.
PBS Directives
PBS directives take the form:
#PBS -X value
Where X is one of many single letter options, and value is the desired setting. All PBS directives must appear before any active shell statement.
Example Job Script
#!/bin/bash # # Use "workq" as the job queue, and specify the allocation code. # #PBS -q workq #PBS -A your_allocation_code # # Assuming you want to run 16 processes, and each node supports 4 processes, # you need to ask for a total of 4 nodes. The number of processes per node # will vary from machine to machine, so double-check that your have the right # values before submitting the job. # #PBS -l nodes=4:ppn=4 # # Set the maximum wall-clock time. In this case, 10 minutes. # #PBS -l walltime=00:10:00 # # Specify the name of a file which will receive all standard output, # and merge standard error with standard output. # #PBS -o /scratch/myName/parallel/output #PBS -j oe # # Give the job a name so it can be easily tracked with qstat. # #PBS -N MyParJob # # That is it for PBS instructions. The rest of the file is a shell script. # # PLEASE ADOPT THE EXECUTION SCHEME USED HERE IN YOUR OWN PBS SCRIPTS: # # 1. Copy the necessary files from your home directory to your scratch directory. # 2. Execute in your scratch directory. # 3. Copy any necessary files back to your home directory. # Let's mark the time things get started. date # Set some handy environment variables. export HOME_DIR=/home/$USER/parallel export WORK_DIR=/scratch/myName/parallel # Set a variable that will be used to tell MPI how many processes will be run. # This makes sure MPI gets the same information provided to PBS above. export NPROCS=`wc -l $PBS_NODEFILE |gawk '//{print $1}'` # Copy the files, jump to WORK_DIR, and execute! The program is named "hydro". cp $HOME_DIR/hydro $WORK_DIR cd $WORK_DIR mpirun -machinefile $PBS_NODEFILE -np $NPROCS $WORK_DIR/hydro # Mark the time processing ends. date # And we're out'a here! exit 0

Maroon 5's Adam Levine Goes BLONDE!!! What Do You Think?
Apocalypse prep course complete. pic.twitter.com/muvPDrIa59
— Adam Levine (@adamlevine) May 3, 2014
Adam Levine is changing up his look.
The Maroon 5 singer and NBC "Voice" coach took to Twitter over the weekend to debut a freshly dyed head of platinum blond hair. Levine, who was named "People's Sexiest Man Alive" last year, seemed to expect some feedback from fans and critics, captioning the photo "Apocalypse prep course complete."
Some Twitter users had a strong reaction to his surprising new look in the mirror selfie with Adam's fiancée, model Behati Prinsloo, asking "What is the world coming to?!?" Another Twitter user joked that "2007 Adam Levine would have made fun of 2014 Adam Levine so bad."
But the singer seems to be happy with his choice. A day after debuting the look, he wrote, "I hope people understand that when they say my hair looks creepy i take that as the highest compliment."
I hope people understand that when they say my hair looks creepy i take that as the highest compliment.

Game 1: Loyola-Chicago – Box Score
Game 2: South Dakota – Box Score
KISSIMMEE, FLA – One day after dominating both of its opponents in a doubleheader at the Rebel Spring Games on Monday in Kissimmee, Fla., the Penn softball team (3-6) found itself on the other end of the stick on Tuesday. The Quakers dropped their morning game to Loyola-Chicago (5-4) in a hard fought loss, 3-2, but were run-ruled in the afternoon game by South Dakota (12-8), 9-1.
WP: Ashley Rogers (3-1), 4 IP, 5 H, 2 ER, BB, HBP, 5 K
S: Brittany Gardner (2), 3 IP, H, BB, 3 K
LP: Alexis Borden (1-4), 5 IP, 7 H, 3 ER, 2 HBP, 5 K
The Quakers started off their game against Loyola with Borden hitting the leadoff batter. The sophomore would settle down though, as she pitched a no-hitter into the fourth. In Penn's half of the first, the Red and Blue would load the bases with no outs and Brooke Coloma (1-for-3, 2 RBI) would come to the plate in the clean-up spot. The senior would hit a double to deep left center, inches away from going over the fence, and plate two runs. Penn would finish the inning ahead of the Rambles, 2-0.
Unfortunately, the Quakers would manage just three hits the rest of the game and Borden's no-hit bid was broken up with two outs in the fourth inning. The Ramblers would reach first safely with a bloop single over the head of Penn first baseman Karina Rios (1-for-2) and follow that up with a two-run shot to left center, ending the shutout bid as well.
After Borden gave up a run and loaded the bases with no outs in the top of the fifth, Amanda Gisonni (2 IP, 3 H) came on in relief. The freshman worked her way out of the jam courtesy of two fielder's choice plays to home by third baseman Kayla Dalherbruch (1-for-3, BB) and a flyout to left fielder Sydney Turchin (2-for-4, R). Neither team would score another run, making the final 3-2 in favor of Loyola.
South Dakota
WP: Erica Denney (7-3), 5 IP, H, ER, 3 BB, 4 K
LP: Lindsay Mann (1-1), 3 IP, 8 H, 4 ER, 3 K
The Red and Blue had little down time as they headed one field over to face South Dakota for their afternoon game. Things started out rough for Mann in the first, and didn't get any better throughout. The senior hurler was shelled for three runs on five hits in the bottom of the first, giving up two home runs to deep left centerfield.
Trailing 3-0 in the top of the second, Korrine Raby (1-for-2, RBI, HR) brought Penn within two after her second career home run. That would be the Quakers' only hit of the day though, as South Dakota's Denney through a one-hitter in the five-inning contest.
Mann would settle down and pitch two scoreless innings in the second and third. The New Jersey native gave up a couple hits and a run with no outs in the top of the fourth, and was pulled in favor of Lauren Li (IP, 3 H, 3 ER, BB, K). The freshman finished off the side in order with a flyout, groundout and strikeout to leave the damage at one run.
The rookie from Los Angeles would get rocked in the fifth, though, giving up two more home runs. Gisonni would enter the game with no outs for her second relief appearance of the day. The freshman would get to two outs, but no further. The Coyotes' first baseman would slap a single to centerfield, scoring two runs and ending the game via the eight-run rule in the bottom of the fifth inning.
Penn has the day off tomorrow, but will back in action on Thursday for a morning-afternoon doubleheader against Tennessee-Martin at the Rebel Games. Live stats for both games will be available HERE and you can follow @UPennSoftball for live in-game updates as well.

'"Yeah, I do, because I think that if you talk to the players, if you talk to the coaches, if you talk to me, we all feel that as a group we're capable of more," Regier said this weekend. "Yet everyone is aware that we all have to do our own jobs. You can't do each other's jobs because that doesn't solve the problem. I think collectively everyone feels that we have been better, we can be better, and we need to be better. That needs to come from within right now."'

text: Case | HBS Case Collection | February 2016 (Revised July 2017) A Nation Divided: The United States and the Challenge of Secession David Moss and Marc Campasano Americans elected Abraham Lincoln as the nation's first Republican president in November of 1860. Northern political leaders had formed the Republican Party only a few years before, in large measure to combat the spread of slavery. Southerners had long been wary of Northern hostility toward their "peculiar institution," and Lincoln's 1860 victory proved to be the last straw in this sectional rivalry that had deeply influenced American culture and politics since the earliest days of the republic. By the time of Lincoln's inauguration five months later, in March 1861, seven Southern states had announced their decision to secede from the Union. Lincoln rejected secession as unlawful and pledged that his government would continue to exercise its authority, as best it could, in the rebellious states. A crisis in South Carolina, the first state to secede, tested Lincoln's mettle in the opening days of his presidency. Federal troops still held Fort Sumter in Charleston harbor, but their supplies were running low. Lincoln would either have to evacuate the fort or risk war by sending provisions. The new president understood the weight of the choice he faced: nothing less than the survival of the Union was at stake.

I decided that Steam and my wifi card would be more compatable with windows to i cleared all partitions and tried to install windows. When i restarted i got the error Boot from ATAPI CD-ROM : Failure DISK BOOT FAILURE then lilo started and tried to boot B/T and it froze because i deleted it. Now i tried everything to fix the error and nothing worked i eventually hooked up the hd with B/T to my new computer and reinstalled windows and did fixmbr and everything loads fine! Okay so then i hook up the hd to the old computer and windows goes to the screen that it has crashed and pick what mode to start.
