Center for Ancient Studies and Archaeology
Willamette University's Center for Ancient Studies (established in 2007) is home to a cross-disciplinary concentration of experts in archaeology and the ancient world that is unprecedented for small Liberal Arts colleges and rare even for major research universities. At Willamette more than twenty faculty members from over a dozen different disciplines combine their expertise and interests to form a program of rich collaboration, critical exploration, and interdisciplinary scholarship that seeks to bring together those within Willamette University and the Willamette Valley community who share an interest in ancient studies and archaeology.
The Center promotes and organizes public lectures and events with national and international experts, funds museum exhibitions, hosts scholarly conferences, and supports faculty and student research.

Thursday, November 22, 2012
There is no question that the economy is stabilizing and climbing out of the hole it fell into in 2007 and 2008; the problem is with expectation. Consider the word stabilize, it is used by just about everyone involved in analyzing the monthly economic numbers, but the word means "steady" not up; not down.
Steady is good. Before you can have solid growth you must have a stable base on which to build it. It looks as though that may have finally been achieved but there is still some weakness around the edges, which mostly involve product demand and a good deal of that relates to Europe.
Most Americans don't realize how much their job depends on what is happening elsewhere in the world. Few American jobs relate purely to America. We are a country of processors, assemblers, servicers and laborers and every element of what we do depends on something that is out of our control. Europe and Asia bashing may make good politics but it's a poor strategy for economic development and job creation.
What has to be realized is the great opportunity the recession offered to corporate managers to rethink how their businesses actually operate and for employees to take stock of their place in an evolving corporate workplace.
When the recession hit, the first reaction is always to limit the damage. As the largest single component on a company's expense report is usually peoplesalaries and benefitsthat's where the first adjustments always come because they are the most visible and easiest to control. The accountants take over (the so-called bean counters) and their job is to maintain profitability and protect the health of the company.
However, in a society dependent on consumer spending, as people are cut so is product demand which continues the downward spiral and bean counting can only take a company so far. The old normal is gone and a new normal has to be found. It takes time and as the economiststhose not affiliated with a political agenda or in the pay of a political party or candidatetell us a recession based on a financial meltdownsuch as 1929 and 2008affect the entire economic structure of a country and should not be compared with the 1970s and 1990s.
From the very beginning of 2009, those independent economists were telling us that this would not be a "V" recession, a quick downturn followed by a quick upturn, and a slow gradual recovery, an "L" shaped one with a quick downturn and relatively flat but growing recovery, would produce the most lasting and solid future for the country and will take eight to ten years to recover.
No one likes to be the bearer of bad news, especially those with political agendas, so the "L" reality was replaced by the demand for a "U" recovery, a sharp downturn followed by a short flat period and then the quick upturn. Given the nature of the 2008 recession this was pure pipe dreaming and an economic impossibility and trying to force it to happen could only result in a "W" recovery, a sharp downturn followed by a sharp upturn followed by another sharp downturnwelcome to Europe.
The latest jobs report shows a clear "goldilocks" trend of an economy in recovery not moving too fast or too slow but improving steadily. As job cuts stifled product demand job gains will enhance it. The future looks bright.

Obama can't define gun control
Evidently people have forgotten that in October 2009, the Obama administration launched Operation Fast and Furious. This fiasco basically involved handing more than 1,200 or so guns (primarily assault weapons) to Mexican drug cartels. The intent was to track the weapons and further understand the cartel's movements. In reality, the outcome was quite different. Numerous weapons were lost and some were found to have been used in fatal shootings and notably, the death of a United States drug enforcement agent.
The operation was deemed a total disaster from top to bottom.
My point is that this same president and this same administration are now preaching gun control reform and claiming to have the end all solutions. He has even gone so far as vowing to circumvent Congress if necessary to enact those changes. What I'm wondering is how far we should trust an administration wanting to tamper with second amendment rights when it has such a dismal track record on gun control?
They sold the very weapons that he wants banned to people who are known to have no problem using them; they lost track of the majority of them, our people got killed by them and now they want us to believe that they know how those weapons should be managed? Isn't that like asking Bernie Madoff for investment advise?
What really puzzles me is why nobody in media has pursued this line of questioning. I don't care if it's Obama, Bush, Clinton or whoever. To justify Fast and Furious, to blindly defend the Justice Department when it failed, and then turn around and decide that you are qualified to define gun control in the United States is a stretch.

University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Vice Chancellor & Director of Athletics David Blackburn welcomed a large crowd of fans and supporters to the University Center on campus today. Blackburn introduced Hall of Famer Jim Foster as the school's fifth women's basketball head coach.
Coach Foster has 35 years of experience as an NCAA Division I head coach and will be inducted into the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame on June 8, 2013. He spent the previous 11 years at Ohio State and has also coached at Vanderbilt and St. Joseph's (Pa.).
Blackburn announced Foster's hire via Twitter (@DBlackburnUTC) on Thursday, shocking Mocs fans and supporters, along with the rest of the women's basketball world, with what has been widely described as a "Slam Dunk" move. Blackburn briefly addressed the crowd before turning the podium over to Foster who spoke about his love of coaching and working with student-athletes.
The full press conference video is attached to this story, along with photos from the event. A transcript of the press conference is also located below. Fans can reserve their 2013-14 season tickets on GoMocs.com or by calling the UTC Ticket Office at (423) 266-MOCS (6627).
UTC Vice Chancellor & Director of Athletics David Blackburn
"Thank you so much for coming today. We'll try to be brief, but obviously today is a special day. We're here to announce our new women's basketball coach and we're excited to do so.
"Before we do that I want to thank a few people. I would like to start off with the team. They've behaved very well in the last month. They've gone to class and continued to do their workouts and to exemplify the winning spirit they've come to know. I certainly want to recognize Katie Burrows for holding the fort down, and thank all the people before this team. This is a storied program and I've come to know that in my time from a distance watching it and from coming here. It is a proud program and a storied program. What we were able to do here with this hire is partly because of all those supporters and student-athletes who have made this program special. I would be remiss not to mention that.
"I'd like to take a minute to thank interim Chancellor Dr. Grady Bogue, Dr. Steven Angle, our chancellor-elect for their patience with me through this process. We tried to work extremely efficient and proper and we moved quick and we certainly thank them for that. The senior group of the athletics department, they have meant so much to me. They have helped me through this process. They have been tremendous. I thank them for that. And for Collegiate Sports Associates for helping us with the search as well.
"We felt it was important to hire someone who could maintain where our program is. We felt it even more important to hire someone who could come in and move the program forward. I told you before I would always look for people that were competitive, that have a winning spirit both on and off the court, and who are looking to improve every day. That was important as we moved forward and made this hire.
"I'm so excited. I'm proud to introduce to you your next head women's basketball coach, Coach Jim Foster."
UTC Women's Basketball Head Coach Jim Foster
"Before I get started, Abby Ramsey who played for me at Vanderbilt, first time I've seen here in quite a while.
"Longer than I'd like to remember, my impression of Chattanooga is I've always liked this place. The SEC Tournament helped me get an understanding of this place. We had host families, wonderful people. Vivid memory: We were getting ready to play in the championship game and unbeknownst to me, I was taking a pregame nap – Sherry Sam – 1st team All American at Vandy – calls my wife and says, 'Do you have an extra set of clothes for Coach?' She said, 'Yes. Why?' 'When we win tonight, we're going to dump the Gatorade on him.' I wish she would have told me that story before. Then I would have been much less nervous coaching the basketball game. I was surprised by the Gatorade.
"We've won games here, we've had a lot of success here. We came here often to the Bluff View Inn Bed and Breakfast - love that area, as an escape from Nashville. Chattanooga has always been a place that we've been very fond of so when this opportunity presented itself, I more than wanted to jump at it. When I realized that David [Blackburn] was a fellow Philadelphian, I picked up the accent right away, I knew he was from South Philly. I was very comfortable with him.
On relationship with Wes Moore
"Ironically, about six years ago, Wes Moore had given his team about three days off and he came up and stayed in our house with us and watched our practices and we spent three days talking basketball. I've known Wes, I spent about half an hour on the phone yesterday, so it just all fit."
On the status of Katie Burrows
"I've made my first executive decision. Katie is going to stay. So you know I'm not dumb. We'll find out about the coaching part as we progress."
On style of play and philosophy of coaching
"Ask me that question in a month. My basketball philosophy is I coach what is in the gym. If I've got a 6-foot-6 All-American, on the low block, they're going to touch the ball often. If I don't. If I've got guards who can shoot the three and get up and get in your grill, we'll play that way. So I'm going to, quite frankly, wait until I see what's in the gym. I'll make a decision what direction I want to go in. I would think, based on the class coming in, up tempo, pressuring on defensively would be somewhere on the agenda unless, of course, a 6-6 kid wanders in."
Moving forward from Ohio State, does that leave you with a chip on your shoulder or does this reenergize you?
"I don't know if 'reenergize' is the word. I love competing. I love winning. I love being around young people. I love watching them grow. We won six conference championships at Ohio State. We won 77 percent of our games. Our players graduated. The Player of the Year in the Big 10 was from Ohio State eight years in a row. I have very fond memories of that. I'll work toward having many fond memories here."
Having coached at the BCS level, why make the move to Chattanooga?
"I love St. Joe's. I've been David and I've been Goliath. It's a heck of a lot more fun being David. If you can make Goliath fall, there's a lot that goes into that."
On contact with the team so far.
"I was on the phone with every player yesterday. I had good conversations. I enjoyed it. I spent about a half hour on the phone with Wes [Moore]. I spent a lot of time on the phone with Katie [Burrows]. I found out I ... like the way she handles herself in traffic.
On his impression of the team.
"I'd be anything but a fool if I didn't have a positive impression of a 29-4 team. I get a little nervous when my new boss is talking about doing better than that. I want to see them in the gym and see what their work ethic is. If you work hard, I love ya and I love the results. If you don't I'll teach you how."
Talk about your phone conversation with former UTC head coach Wes Moore.
"He has a comfort zone with me being here and I have a comfort zone with replacing him. In a lot of respects, we are somewhat the same. We love to coach and we love to be in the gym. We love our players. The only problem Wes has is that he is an American League fan. They don't play baseball as long as they have a DH. And I am a Phillies guy."
On his relationship with Geno Auriemma.
"I gave him his first job. I am the one who talked him into coaching. We were at a junior college together. We were in college coaching, neither of us had a degree. We were still working on our degrees, so I can tell you it was a different era. I had become a high school coach. I was a boy's assistant varsity and JV coach and the athletics director asked me if I would like to coach the girls team. I said yes and I hired Geno.
"We were there two years and St. Joseph's called me and asked if I would like to coach the women's team. And I said yes. I made $3,000 and Geno made $1,000. I gave him my car. My $100 Volkswagen. I went out and bought a $150 Volkswagen. We had cars.
"I loved it. We are still very good friends."

Although a knee injury hampered his training for a fight against Joey Beltran at UFC Fight Night 29, Fabio Maldonado was in good spirits following a split call.
Good enough spirits, that is, to make a few requests about his next bout. And Maldonado thought none other than Chael Sonnen would make a good opponent for his next UFC appearance.
Or, if Sonnen was unavailable, Australian striker James Te-Huna.
"Of course, it's serious," said Maldonado when asked about inklings of his preference on social media. "I would love to fight Chael Sonnen. I would like to fight James Te Huna. James is a great striker, and Chael, a lot of people think he would kill my game, that he would tie me up. But I'm very well-trained.
"It's hard for you to see my jiu-jitsu, but I can turn it around. I would do well against James, as well."

Rated 5 out of 5Â by lstrakal182 Wonderfully Pretty Very lovely scarf, the colors are gorgeous (I got the purple) and it's great in quality. This is the perfect scarf to have to spice up your wardrobe! 5.1.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by adaly Love them both! The colors aren't as vibrant in person, but the scarf just lays so right so I purchased both colors. 4.5.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Sparc Great Scarf!!! While the scarf is a bit of a duller blue and the purple and reds a a bit muted i think it is nicer than in the photo! It matches more colors and works with almost anything. The tassels are blue and yellow instead of purple and blue but it is brighter. The scarf itself is very similar but looks a bit older or vintage but similar. I am happier with the blue one I got than the one in the photo. Added bonus, there is some embroidery, great scarf for the money! All Cotton!!! 3.28.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by alie789 Ok but not like the picture I just received my scarf. It's pretty, but it is not light and bright like the one in the photo. ALSO - the tassels are different! In the photo it shows blue and violet, but they are YELLOW and blue. The blue in the scarf is greyish not tourquoisy like pictured and there is a lot more red in it than shown here also. Still a nice scarf, so I'll keep it, but would have been nicer without the yellow in the tassels. 3.5.2013
Rated 2 out of 5Â by maggie_318 So disappointing.... I ordered this scarf over a month ago (it was on backorder) and have finally received it today. It looked great in the catalog shot but I have to say: the colors are different from what is pictured. I chose the blue/grey and it is so dark and dull. Very unflattering. I am blonde and it does not go at all with my hair color. It is going back for sure. 1.14.2013

Head Coach Wes Moore
Thoughts on the game
"It wasn't always the prettiest thing to watch. We had too many turnovers and missed too many free throws, but I'm proud of the effort we gave on the boards. Offensively, I thought we crashed really hard and ended up outscoring them 20-6 on second chance points. I thought that was probably the biggest factor in the game. Ashlen Dewart did a great job scoring inside and giving us a little bit of balance. Kylie Lambert was guarding Brittenham, who had 15 points at halftime. We put Kylie on her in the second half and she ended with 17 total with two in the second half. I thought Kylie did an excellent job defensively on her. We're going to have a quick turnaround with Furman coming in here Saturday. It's going to be a big challenge. We have to try to get them back up and hopefully do a better job knocking down free throws and taking care of the ball."
On going to Ashlen Dewart early
"We go into every game seeing how they are going to play us and make decisions based on that. She's a good place to start. You'd like to get the ball inside. We didn't shoot the ball very well tonight from the three point line, so it was critical that we get some scoring inside. She stepped up and did a great job of that. I thought she brought some energy. One time late in the game she ran the floor and finished a layup but she messed up because now I know she's capable of running the floor. I'll expect that same effort going the other way defensively. I thought she had an outstanding game with a double-double, she went to the boards and did a nice job."
On the play of the veterans down the stretch
"I want to play more people. I think we have some kids that can play. I'd like to leave them out there. When you are in a game that is single digits going down the stretch you give them a chance but you have to go with the people that you can trust. They are going to take care of the ball, they are going to box out and they are going to match up and not give up open looks. I ended up going back to the veterans. We've got to develop some more depth on the perimeter. I think we definitely have the talent to do that. At the same time, in these close games you have to earn it."
Ashlen Dewart, forward, junior
Thoughts on having so many scoring opportunities
"I think it just worked out that way. We knew we had an advantage in size on the inside. Once you create that advantage on the inside it opens shooters and everything else on the outside. Coach Moore saw that and acted on it."
Thoughts on getting the ball early in the game
"I would like to do that every game. It just depends on the game, who's hot, and how our team dynamics are. Tonight our guards did a really good job feeding me the ball and working to get me the ball."
Thoughts on how physical the game was on the inside
"It's part of the inside game and you have to expect that every time you play."
Kayla Christopher, guard, senior
Thoughts on holding Bittenham to only two points in the second half.
"I think she had three 3's in the first half and 15 points, but Kylie did a great job on guarding her in the second half. That was a big key in us being able to pull it out."
Thoughts on extending the Lady Mocs winning streak to 31 games over Wofford
"I was not aware we had won that many in a row over them. I knew the last couple of times they came here it had been a close game. They're a real scrappy team and real physical. I think it is just part of conference play, everybody is playing for the championship."
Thoughts on closing out the game
"I think at the end of the game having a lot of veterans is something that we feel comfortable with and have confidence in. Our veterans and our experience help us a lot when we get into situations like that."

I just read an article in ITworld titled "P2P bill could regulate browsers, cloud computing" by Grant Gross that got my brain churning a bit. Is Peer-to-Peer really considered "Cloud Computing?" And, if it is, how would it be classified? Cloud Application? No. Cloud Platform? Nope. Cloud Infrastructure? Uh…No.
After reading the P2P Bill, what concerns me is the extremely broad and loose definition of a "peer-to-peer sharing program". H.R. 1319 (otherwise known as the "Informed P2P User Act") does not seem to clearly define this term. (You can view the full text of the Bill here.) The definition of a "peer-to-peer file sharing program" is defined within the Bill as proposed as:
(2) the term 'peer-to-peer file sharing program' means computer software that allows the computer on which such software is installed–
(A) to designate files available for transmission to another computer;
(B) to transmit files directly to another computer; and
(C) to request the transmission of files from another computer.
In a response delivered to Representative Bono Mack, the sponsor of H.R. 1319, the CCIA (Computer & Communication Industry Association), the NetCoalition, TechAmerica and the Internet Commerce Coalition stated:
"As currently drafted, however, H.R. 1319 would broadly apply to many different applications and Web sites that appear to be beyond the intended scope of the bill.

The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga's McKenzie Arena is undergoing a noticeable upgrade this summer. All of the 2,016 retractable seats in the lower bowl are being replaced. Over 800 padded seats and all new accommodations below the gold circle will welcome Mocs fans back to the Roundhouse when the men's and women's basketball teams tip off in the fall.
Breakdown of the old seats began on June 3 and the project is expected to last until early September. At an estimated cost of around $1.8 million, this is the first major renovation to the spectator area of the venue that opened in 1982.
Renderings of the new layout are available below, while a photo gallery of the progress of the project is attached to this story. News of the renovations to McKenzie Arena was also a hot topic in the local media this week. Links to coverage of the construction are available at the top of the page.
Be sure to bookmark the link to the photo gallery, as new photos will be added weekly to show the progress of the project.
Don't forget that men's and women's basketball season tickets are on sale and available for renewal now on GoMocs.com. Fans can also call the UTC Ticket Office at (423) 266-MOCS (6627) to purchase tickets.
|The diagram above shows the gray padded seats that will be in the middle sections on each side of the playing floor. There are apporximately 440 of these new seats on each side. The blue seats in the corners and endzone are newer versions of the ones that previously existed in the arena. The Gold Circle seats will not be replaced as a part of this project.

I am 36 weeks and 2 days. BP keeps going up and they have increased my meds to Labetelol to 300mg bid to keep it around 140/90 on total bed rest. I have terrible headaches.
I have had 3 24 hr urine test that was normal and the first one came back today in the 500's. Platelettes and Liver enzymes have been normal recently.
They are working me in on Friday for an ultrasound and appt with the MD. Are they going to keep me in the hospital or going to send me home with more bed rest? Under what circumstances would they keep me? I live an hour away from the hospital. I would feel more comfortable there.

Culbreath: We're all Boston fansWritten by Matt 'Shaggy' Culbreath | | email@example.com
One of 1370 WSPD's sister stations, Fox Sports 1230, recently launched a new show, meticulously named "It's Just Sports." I say "meticulously" because Program Director Eric Chase knows how people get when it comes to talking ball. Any argument can become very, very overheated. Who should have won AL MVP? Who's the better running back in college ball? Could Mike Ditka wrestle a bear? Especially in the talk radio world, people elevate these topics to levels of importance that rival some political topics. Combine that with the type of ego that would work in a business where you speak into a microphone, only to hear it fed back to you in your headphones … and you can see how an inane topic like sports can start to sound self-important.
This past week, the world of sports sent me a message that it can be important. Not necessarily on the field, but in the community.
There are the obvious reasons — the economic benefit of people working at the stadiums, a reason for people to come to town and eat at restaurants or pay for parking. There is also the intangible: civic pride. When we put our name on a team, we expect it to represent us. Win or lose, it exemplifies the city. When people talk about our baseball team, sure they can talk about "the Mud Hens," but they can also simply say "Toledo," and that means more than just the guys on the team.
These civic organizations made their voices clear this week after the tragic events in Boston. One by one, organizations stepped up in support of their brethren. It started Tuesday when teams across baseball took time out of their games either for a moment of silence or to play a few bars of Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline," a Boston Red Sox favorite. The Cleveland Indians hosted the BoSox on April 16, and showed their respect by flying their flag at half mast. Even the New York Yankees, hated rival and "evil empire," took time to sing those "So Good, So Good, So Good!" lines in the middle of the third inning. If anybody could sympathise with what Boston was going through, it would be New York.
The NBA and NHL also followed suit. The Bruins and Celtics each canceled games on Monday and Tuesday for security purposes, but many teams that were playing observed moments of silence. On April 17, the Bruins played at the TD Garden in Beantown, coming out of the locker room to the powerful chants of The Dropkick Murphys singing "For Boston" (look it up, it is amazing). After the game, despite losing to Buffalo in a shootout, both teams came to center ice to salute the fans. The Celtics were on the road in Toronto, but the Raptors also took heed, playing "Sweet Caroline" as they announced the starting lineup. A message shone on the scoreboard: "Tonight, we are all Boston fans."
These gestures don't mean that we're actively rooting for Boston's teams to win against our favorite guys. No, once the game starts, then Pedroia is a bum, the Celtics are old and the Patriots are a bunch of cheaters. There is a difference, though, between rooting against the Red Sox and cheering for Boston. Again, we expect these teams to represent our cities, whether collegiate or professional, and so when the visiting teams come into town, we treat them as we would treat the regions they represent.
Yes, it's just sports. But when the nation needs to heal (an all-too often occurrence these days), it's these athletes who reach across borders to tell those who may be hurting "We're with you, and we got this." They put on a show that distracts us from our worries, at least for a little while.
We may not be Red Sox fans, or Bruins fans or Celtics fans … but we are all Boston fans.

Clayton's working tonight, so it's all Lolita time. Although he's a great consumer – as in he eats what I make without (much) complaining – there are dishes I prepare for myself that I don't seem to ever make for him. I don't know why; there's no real reason or rhyme, frankly – it's just the way it is. Tonight's meal began with the leftovers from some huge-ass king crab legs we enjoyed for last night's dinner, and a couple of odds and ends I picked up today at Trader Joe's. The result? An elegant but simple salad of nutty avocado and tender sweet crab meat, accompanied by an easy antipasti: a light but rich supper as delicious as it is beautiful.
King Crab and Avocado Tian with Antipasto
1 ripe avocado
1/3 lb fresh picked cooked crab meat
juice from 1 lemon
1 tbs mayonnaise
1 handful maché (lamb's lettuce)
1 boll burrata cheese
2 slices prosciutto di parma, split and rolled into 4 tiny cigars
EVOO, sea salt, cracked black pepper, balsamic vinegar
Whole Foods had a special on King crab legs this weekend – something I've had a hankering for for a while now. We bought 2 pounds, not realizing just how much meat these bad boys were going to yield. I think we've established that we've never actually had King crab legs prior to these — likely only snow crab clusters — since neither of us can remember ever seeing such huge unbroken chunks of leg and knuckle meat before. And it was so dense and packed that the discarded shells weighed next to nothing; we easily 'harvested' 30 oz of succulent pink deliciousness. After gorging ourselves on not much more than crab and butter, we had about 1/2 lb leftover.
I pull my crab meat into nice sized hunks, and mix it with a little mayo and several teaspoons of lemon juice, along with some salt and pepper. I just want the mayo to bind the crab – not make it gooey; I also just want the lemon juice to cancel out the egginess (eggyiness? eggyness?) of the mayo – not make it lemony; and I just want the salt and pepper to brighten the salad – not overpower it. The idea is crab and nothing but that which is needed to 'hold it together' for the sake of shaping the tian.
Speaking of which — here is how I'm shaping this "tian" – my stacked, formed salad of crab meat and avocado. I'm not sure why it's called a tian — in fact, although I see several examples of this term being used in this context online, traditionally a tian in French cooking is something completely different – either more like a vegetable tart, or an earthenware cooking device. But when I envisioned this dish, it was as a perfectly shaped cylindrical layered salad. And when I order a perfectly shaped cylindrical layered dish in a restaurant, it's usually called a tian on the menu. Hence my usage of the term. Anyway, using my kitchen shears, I cut the ends off of a beer can to make a perfect form. It would have been better to use a soup can, but all the cans I have in the house are designed to stack, so my can opener won't work on their bottom sides. (I figured this out only after dumping the contents of several cans of soup.) Using a beer can just meant I had to be careful not to cut my fingers on the sharp edges.
I start by pressing my avocado, which I've blended with a dash of lemon juice, some salt, pepper, and EVOO, into a more-or-less flat 1″ thick layer on the bottom of my can.
Then I layer in the crab meat salad.
I vary carefully slide the can up and off the filling so it maintains its shape, pressing down on the crab meat to keep the filling on the plate. Oiling the can a bit beforehand helped.
A basic antipasto of rolled prosciutto di parma, burrata cheese, capers, EVOO, and balsamic vinegar, along with some EVOO and lemon juice dressed maché, add extra dimensions to this already sophisticated presentation. Crab and avocado, although not meant to co-exist in nature, seem destined for each other's company on the plate: the sweet, tender sinews of crab absorb the buttery texture of the stone fruit's green goodness, creating a harmonious marriage on the palate unrivaled in the realm of simple pleasures. Along with a cold glass of sparkling rosé, this delectable dinner is truly a treat – tonight, for one, but that doesn't mean you can't make it for your sweetie whenever the mood strikes you…

An 18-year-old Carvers Bay High student said he was approached by a 54-year-old man while on the baseball field Feb. 10. He said the man was asking about some rumors about his daughter that were floating around the school, the report states.
The man began yelling and cursing at the student in front of his teammates and coaches. He also took his coat off acting like he wanted to fight, the student told the deputy.
The man was escorted off the property by the coaches.
The next day, deputies spoke to the man who admitted going to the field and apologized for his actions.
The student said he did not want to press charges. The schools principal said it was unknown if the man would be placed on trespass notice.
Door shattered at Dunbar store
Deputies were sent to Martys Grocery in the 2500 block of Dunbar Road at about 2:15 a.m. Feb. 10 because of an alarm activation.
They arrived and saw the front door was shattered.
The owner of the store said nothing appeared to be missing.
Alcohol at WHS
A staff member at Waccamaw High was told Feb. 5 that a 15-year-old student was seen passing a bottle to another student on campus.
The student was taken to the office and an apple juice bottle was found in his backpack. When the cap was removed, a strong smell of alcohol was noted.
The student, when asked, admitted it was Vodka inside the bottle. He said he drank some of the Vodka before school began.
He was charged with being a minor in possession of alcohol.

How would I remotely connect to a pc using Remote Desktop Connection from outside of the network?
For example, the address inside the network is "192.168.1.100" and that is all I need to enter for the pc name. How would I connect to that pc from a friends house for example?
