text: GoldenBearSports.com Five Bears Reach Pac-12 Singles Quarterfinals Singles Quarterfinals and Doubles Slated for Friday in Ojai By Cal Athletics on Thu, April 24, 2014 Related Links Pac-12 Results/Draws Pac-12 Tourn. Central Follow Cal on Twitter Follow Cal on Instagram Like Cal on Facebook OJAI, Calif. – California sent five players to the quarterfinals of the Pac-12 singles tournaments, with each of the five winning twice on the opening day of the conference event on Thursday at the Ojai Valley Athletic Club. Senior Anett Schutting, sophomore Lynn Chi and freshman Denise Starr advanced in the singles championship, while sophomore Klara Fabikova and freshman Maegan Manasse moved on in the singles invitational. All the singles quarterfinals will take place and both the doubles championship and doubles invitational tournaments will begin on Friday at the Ojai Valley Athletic Club. Saturday's semifinals and Sunday's finals will be held at the Libbey Park in Ojai. The Pac-12 Women's Tennis Championships is taking place in conjunction with the 114th Annual Ojai Tennis Tournament, which includes the Pac-12 Men's Tennis Championship, a team tournament that concludes on Saturday. In the singles championship, Schutting – seeded third in the tournament and ranked 19th nationally – won a pair of three-set matches to advance. In the opening round of 32, she knocked off Washington State's 84th-ranked Elizaveta Luzina, 6-4, 4-6, 6-3, and then the Golden Bear beat Arizona's Lauren Marker, 3-6, 6-0, 6-2, in the round of 16. Schutting is next slated to play Arizona State's Desirae Krawczyk at noon on Friday. The fifth-seeded and 25th-ranked Chi defeated another Cougar – Maria Biryukova – in the first round, 6-4, 6-1, and then topped USC's Brynn Boren, 6-1, 6-3, to reach the quarterfinals. Chi plays Stanford's fourth-seeded and 23rd-ranked Carol Zhao at noon on Friday. Starr – seeded seventh and ranked 31st – beat Arizona's 46th-ranked Lacey Smyth, 6-2, 6-2, and then defeated Stanford's 49th-ranked Ellen Tsay, 6-0, 6-4. Starr takes on UCLA's top-seeded and 11th-ranked Jennifer Brady in a noon quarterfinal. "It's a good opportunity for Lynn to play in the championship draw," Cal head coach Amanda Augustus said of Chi, who played in the Pac-12 singles invitational as a freshman. "She made the most of the opportunity. She played two great matches but especially in her second one against Boren. Lynn's gaining confidence each round. She hasn't played Zhao yet. That's what so great about this tournament; they get a look at different players that they don't usually play. This will help get us ready for NCAAs." Two of the four Bears playing in the singles invitational tournament reached the quarters. Freshman Maegan Manasse – seeded second and ranked 60th – did not lose a game in either of her two matches. First she bageled Oregon's Kadie Hueffner, 6-0, 6-0, in the opening round of 32, and then she blanked Arizona State's Joanne Smith, 6-0, 6-0. Manasse faces USC's seventh-seeded Gabriella DeSimone at noon on Friday. "Maegan's really been playing well, and her wins the last couple weeks have given her lot of confidence," Augustus said. "Being from southern California, she's familiar with this tournament. She's excited to be playing in the Pac-12 division rather than playing in the open division as a junior. She had a great first day and is really looking forward to tomorrow." The fifth-seeded and 85th-ranked Fabikova opened with a 6-4, 6-1 win over Utah's Paige Miles before beating Stanford's Lindsey Kostas, 6-2, 6-0. She plays Washington's Riko Shimizu in Friday's noon quarterfinal. Eighth-seeded Alice Duranteau won her round of 32 contest with Colorado's Vitaliya Alkhovik, 6-0, 6-2. But the Cal senior fell in the round of 16 to ASU's Leighann Sahagun, 6-2, 6-3. In the round of 32, Cal senior Kelly Chui lost to the top-seeded and 52nd-ranked Caroline Doyle, 6-1, 6-1. "The girls are ready for another good day of tennis," Augustus added. "I'm really excited to get the doubles going tomorrow." Pac-12 Championships April 24, 2014, in Ojai, Calif.

Some quick WY Mule Deer stats for all of you research junkies out there:
Since 2010 WY has dropped 1,135 tags out of the limited quota pool that is a drop of 26%, that's why the points are creeping up each year. The drop was 280 tags and 8% just last year alone.
The general season tags have been dropped by 6,200 nonresident tags since 2010, again a 26% drop. Cut by 6% or 1,200 tags last year alone, keep in mind a lot of this had to do with the changes in Region D.
The success rates in the limited quota areas as a whole, statewide was off by 5% last year (2012). Region G had a five year high success rate in 2012 up over 12% over the five year average.
Just some food for thought.
Good luck to all of you in the draw. -G

AUBURN, Calif. - Cal Fire is warning of what may be a very long and very difficult fire season ahead.
"Over the next couple of months almost all of Northern California's gonna be at an above average potential for large and damaging wildfires," said Cal Fire spokesman Daniel Berlant.
The state has already seen 950 fires, triple the number in an average year. And the state is in the grip of the worst drought in recorded history.
"A lot of the green hillsides up and down the state are really just masking the dead grass that's been sitting there all winter long," Berlant points out.
At the Cal Fire station in Auburn, seasonal firefighters have been in place since the end of January, nearly three months earlier than usual.
SACRAMENTO - A deadly shooting prompts a search for an armed person on a bicycle Saturday night.
The Sacramento Sheriff's Department received reports of a shooting a little before 11:30 p.m. in the 3100 block of El Camino Ave, in front of a gas station.
When deputies arrived on scene they found a man, who has been identified as 33-year-old Jesus Antonio Macias, lying on the ground outside.
The victim had sustained a gunshot wound to his upper body and was later pronounce deceased by the Fire Department that arrived on scene.
The person believed to be responsible for the shooting left the area on a bicycle. Deputies set up a perimeter but were unable to locate him.
SACRAMENTO - Police are investigating the death of a man after he was shot inside of a north Sacramento home Saturday evening.
Sacramento police received reports of a shooting in the 3300 block of Nareb Street around 6:40 p.m.
When officers arrived at the home, they located one man with a single gunshot wound to his upper body.
The victim was transported to the hospital where he later died.
Officer Doug Morse said that the victim arrived at the home when an altercation began and multiple shots were fired. It appears, at this time, that the victim and shooter know one another.
Shots are also said to have been fired outside of the home. It's not clear who fired those shots, but they are believed to be connected to the original incident.
Police have made no arrests and continue to question witnesses to gather futher information on the person or persons responsible.
SACRAMENTO-Sacramento Police arrested the father of a 7-year-old boy after he allegedly ran across the freeway with his son.
Sacramento Police officers responded at 8:48 a.m. Saturday to a call of a man running across Interstate 5 with a small child near downtown Sacramento.
Officers found 43-year-old Jeffrey Kuykendall was with his 7-year-old son and had ran across I-5 to the center divider, waited for a break in traffic and then they both ran across to the other side, said Sacramento Police Officer Michele Gigante.
After investigating the incident officers arrested Kuykendall for felony child endangerment and he was booked into Sacramento County Jail.
Gigante said the boy was taken into protective custody.

It takes a certain amount of courage to make the decision to attend a Rape Aggression Defense (RAD) course offered at Tulane. But when statistics show that one in three women will be sexually assaulted in her lifetime, being prepared can mean the difference between confidence and self-doubt,not to mention life and death.
Tulane was one of the first universities in the South to offer this two-day, intensive course six years ago and continues to offer classes each month. Part of a national program headquartered in Virginia, RAD Systems Inc., boasts 3,000 instructors throughout the United States and Canada who have trained more than 100,000 women.
Requiring no particular fitness level or gadgets such as pepper spray, the RAD system relies solely upon women's natural physical abilities. The RAD course is open to women only, though instructors can be either sex.
"We want to create space of total privacy for women to take this course," explains Wilce Gilbert III, Tulane's RAD coordinator who serves as a sergeant in the Tulane Department of Public Safety as well as a part-time officer on the New Orleans Police Department.
"Females have traditionally been socialized to be peacekeepers, not aggressors," says Gwendolyn Dardant (N '01), RAD instructor who has practiced martial arts for the past nine years. "They not only have to overcome during an attack the normal human reactions of stress, danger and fear, but also the conditioning that has been programmed into them by society itself."
RAD's basic course begins with four hours of classroom time to give each student a foundation of awareness, risk reduction and avoidance strategies, which RAD considers 90 percent of self-defense training.
Megan Noller, graphic designer in the university publications office, says, "I felt overly worried about being at risk of attack when I first came back from the discussion part of the course, but all the instructors' facts about date rape and other serious situations were ultimately excellent ways of giving us the kind of awareness we should have had all along."
Gilbert says the course aims to increase awareness about realistic dangers. "This class isn't meant to scare you," says Gilbert. "It's meant to open your eyes; it's meant to make you grow."
The second part of the RAD program focuses on ways of handling potentially dangerous situations. It systematically covers the basics: stances, yelling, movement, blocking, striking and kicking. The physical options continue with defenses against wrist grabs, bear hugs and chokes.
Once students learn the skills, they take part in assault simulation. Covered with helmets, elbow pads, boxing gloves and knee guards, they have only one goal: Fight off the attackers and run to safety. During class, Gilbert reminds class participants, "You do not have to render your attacker unconscious and drag him to the authorities. The object is to survive the assault."
He then slips into a back room and returns about 20 minutes later in black full-body pads. Each woman is called up to the stage alone to fight off both Gilbert and another RAD aggressor. The woman is told to face the back wall and imagine using an ATM machine. Suddenly, an aggressor leaps onto her, holding her in a tight bear hug. She fights him and the second man with surprising force and runs to safety. The simulation is videotaped and Gilbert offers students free copies.
"Most of the time you're too keyed up from the stress of being attacked, even in simulation, to remember what you actually did," he says. "Students are shocked to see what they did when they watch the tape later."
Class participant Erin Spinner (N '01) agrees. "Before taking the RAD course, I felt like I'd be too embarrassed to try to actually fight off anybody because I would not affect them at all," she says. "But now I'm confident because I know that I could really hurt someone with these techniques."
To keep these skills sharp, RAD invites every student to return for refresher courses and more advanced training free of charge at any of its nationwide locations. The RAD course offered at Tulane is open to all women, staff, faculty, students, as well as members of the community. It is sponsored by the Department of Public Safety's Office of Crime Prevention and Victim Resources and costs $25 per person.
To find out more about upcoming local classes, call Wilce Gilbert at 865-5381, ext. 1253.

I am unable to open portal.microsoftonline.com through any browser. The login page doesn't open. I have tried it through various browsers including IE8, FF4 and Chrome. The page doesn't load at all. The website goes blank w/o any error message. Please help me.
I dont think its an issue with my login as the page which asks for the login credentials doesn't appear. the login page somehow appeared once when I opened login.microsoftonline.com on FF4 and thats how I am writing this post.
Please help me as I am not able to signin to the outlook webapp. However, I am able to use the desktop outlook 2010 client and access my emails.
Thanks for the feedback.

Sounds like your using the right software onlinehelp.microsoft.com/.../ff652534.aspx.
login.microsoftonline.com is the login redirect from portal.microsoftonline.com. I would advise clearing cookies and cache and resetting the browser settings to defaults. Since this appears to be impacting several browsers trying to access from another PC might help isolate this.
Thanks for replying. I had tried it already. Tried it from 3 different PCs varying between win7 sp1, winxp sp3. However the issue was weird. After mailing you, I was being able to login, but the outlook web app didn't completey load and the whole page's formatting was lost like it happens when the entire java script is not loaded. the pictures or icons were missing too with red x buttons displaying on their place. This was no internet connection problem as I am on a 4 Mbps internet line and I checked the speed on speedtest.net too. It stayed like this for nearly 3 hours and then the problem has suddenly disappeared.
Was there a server downtime at msft?
Is there a dashboard site available to customers/admins where I can check what's the status of servers hosting the outlook and office webapps. Thats a basic necessecity for us now.
No, this wasn't otherwise reported. If you use a proxy server the symptoms you describe resemble cache problems across an array.
The service health status can be found under the Support category in the Administration Portal - or you can go to portal.microsoftonline.com/.../ServiceStatus.aspx directly.
Glad to hear it's working for you now.
Thanks for answering. Steven.
Its not a proxy issue though as we dont use proxy. But maybe there were some corrupted caches down the line till your servers which led to this problem.
About the status page: this is weird. why does the status page requires me to signin to office365. if i am facing a problem with signin, and i want to look at the service status, then i am stuck as I am facing a problem with signin to begin with. this is an erroneous workflow. i this Microsoft should make the status pages public. or is there a public status page too?

As I was out getting my morning exercise I noticed that my neighbor has put up the 2A on ~5'x5' posters at both ends of their property. I stopped and read it, though I know it by heart,
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
I've been thinking and reading about it since. Maybe that is a danger when increasing oxygen flow to ones brain?
Now we can discuss and debate what the FF had in mind by Militia or even State in this context, but they are both contingent on right the of the people to keep and bear arms. A militia is universally defined as a body of citizen solders, in contrast to a professional military force under the supply and command of a central government, and they knew to be free the people needed to have the RKBA. That is what they had in mind, and everything else is secondary to that in my opinion.

A classical inheritence model with support for mixins
Simple but powerful classical inheritence for JavaScript.
$ npm install classes
If using Node.js, you may want to make classes global using code such as this near the beginning of your application.
globalClass = require'classes'Class;
// If using Node.js, the module needs to be required (unless global as shown above) var Class = require'classes'Class; // A general animal class Class'Animal' thisname = name; alertnoise; ; // Create a class for making people Class'Person'Extends'Animal' thismakeNoisethisname + ' says: "' + sayWhat + '"'; ; // Create an instance of our person class var james = 'James'; // And make them talk jamesspeak'Hello, World';
There are multiple allowed syntaxes for extending classes, which you can choose at your preference.
// Create a base class first Class'A' ; // Using the Extends() syntax Class'B'ExtendsA ; // Using the complex Class() syntax Class'B' A ; // Using the extend() syntax Aextend'B' ;
Also note, that when using the
Extends() syntax or the complex
Class() syntax, both a parent class variable (
A) or string (
'A') is allowed, but if you use the string syntax, the parent class must exist on the namespace object.
You can call the super of any method at any time. This is done using the
parent method on your class methods.
Class'A'ExtendsSomeOtherClass // Call the method's super thismethodparentthis; // Call this method's super, passing the argument along thismethodWithArgsparentthis arg1; // Call the super, but pass in the arguments object thisanotherMethodparentApplythis arguments; ;
Using class.js, classes don't have to be assigned a name. You can also tell the
Class() function to simply return the constructed class function by passing a falsey first param (like
Class(null)) or by simply not giving one as seen below.
// This class will automatically be declared at global.Animal Class'Animal' ; // This class will not be declared globally, but instead just returned var Snake = ClassExtendsAnimal ; // A slightly cleaner syntax var Snake = Animalextend // ... ;
To define a class, but assign it somewhere other that the global object, you pass in a two key array as the class name. The first value is the object to define the class on, and the second is the class name.
// This is where we will put the class var someObject = ; // Now define the class ClasssomeObject 'Animal' ; // And use the class var animal = ;
This is equivilent to the following:
someObjectAnimal = Class ;
As of version 0.2.0, mixins are supported. It should be noted that mixins are not the same as sub-class inheritence. A single class can implement both a parent class as well as mixins. Mixins are defined using the
Class.mixin method.
Classmixin'CanFoo' alert'Foo!'; ;
Once created, a mixin is used with the
uses method when defining a class.
Class'Thing'Uses 'CanFoo' // ... ; var thing = ;thingfoo;
Mixins are different from inheritence in the sense that they do no add to the inheritence chain, they simply extend the current class with certain functionality. You cannot use
instanceof to determine mixin inheritence because classes are not instances of mixins; In fact, there is no such thing as an instance of a mixin, they are just objects.
Before version 0.2.0, all new classes and mixins were defined, by default, on the global object, and if you wanted to define one elsewhere, you would have to use either anonymous classes or the array syntax (eg.
Class([exports, 'Foo'], ...)). There is now a new way of defining namespaced classes that should prove useful, especially in the case of Node.js.
var Class = require'classes'Class;Classnamespaceexports; Class'Foo' // ... ; var foo = ;
Class.namespace() function sets the default namespace, allowing shorter, more readable class declarations. Simply call
Class.namespace(exports) at the top of your modules and your classes will automatically be defined in the correct space.

In their latest installment of "Kids React To Viral Videos," the Fine Brothers had their panel of child judges react to Chuck Testa. Specifically, the ad for his Ojai Valley Taxidermy business that went viral in September.
It seems that Chuck's deadpan charm doesn't quite translate to the younger set, but the older kids seemed to think that he was funny -- albeit a little creepy.
Our favorite quote came from 10-year-old William: "[Taxidermy is] mega-Botox for animals, basically."

U.S. job growth accelerated sharply in February despite the icy weather that gripped much of the nation, easing fears of an abrupt economic slowdown and keeping the Federal Reserve on track to continue reducing its monetary stimulus.
Employers added 175,000 jobs to their payrolls last month after creating 129,000 new positions in January, the Labor Department said on Friday. The unemployment rate, however, rose to 6.7 percent from a five-year low of 6.6 percent as Americans flooded into the labor market to search for work.
"It reinforces the case for the economy being stronger than it's looked for the last couple of months," said Bill Cheney, chief economist at John Hancock Financial Services in Boston. "It makes life easier for the Fed and feeds into continuing the tapering process."
The report also showed the largest increase in average hourly earnings in eight months and the payrolls count for December and January was revised up to show 25,000 more jobs created during those months than previously reported.
Investors on Wall Street cheered the report and the Standard & Poor's 500 index reached a fresh intraday record high before falling back to trade marginally lower.
The dollar lifted off a four-month low against a basket of currencies, while the yield on the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury note jumped to a six-week high, putting it on course for its biggest weekly rise in three months.
Interest rate futures showed that traders ramped up bets on the Fed raising rates a bit sooner than had been previously thought. They now point to a 53 percent probability of a rate hike in June 2015.
Unusually cold and snowy weather has disrupted activity in much of the United States for months, and a few economists had begun to speculate that the U.S. central bank could reconsider its plan to wind down its bond-buying stimulus.
The eastern and central United States experienced record low temperatures last month, and ice and snow blanketed densely populated areas during the week employers were surveyed for February payrolls. The winter storms left Wall Street bracing for a much weaker report. Economists had forecast nonfarm payrolls rising by only 149,000 jobs.
The weather, however, did have an impact. It cut into the length of the average workweek, which hit its lowest level since January 2011 and led to a drop in a measure of total work effort. But economists expect a reversal as soon as this month.

Plymouth man faces trial on homicide, attempted murder charges
NANTICOKE – The man accused of killing one man and critically wounding another in a September bar shooting in Plymouth will face trial on homicide and attempted murder charges, a judge ruled today.
William Allabaugh, 24, of Plymouth, appeared in court today for a preliminary hearing connected to an alleged shooting rampage that began inside Bonnie's Food and Spirits on Sept. 9 and spilled on to Main Street.
Luzerne County Assistant District Attorney Jarrett Ferentino said the scene was reminiscent of the "O.K. Corral," referring to the infamous "Wild West" gunfight in Tombstone, Ariz. in 1881.
Allabaugh, of Plymouth, is accused of shooting Stephen Hollman, 29, in the head inside the bar just before 2 a.m. on Sept. 9 and then fatally shooting Scott Luzetsky, 39, outside the 133 E. Main St. bar.
Police and witnesses say neither victim provoked Allabaugh prior to the shooting, and he began firing while being booted from the bar because someone spotted him carrying a gun.
Another bar patron, Mark Ktytor, 35, of Plymouth, is credited with stopping the rampage by shooting Allabaugh multiple times upon being confronted on East Main Street. Ktytor wasn't called to testify today, but will be available for trial.
Bar employee Bob Wallace said Allabaugh snapped when told he had to leave because patrons were concerned he was armed.
"I saw him reaching, then he pulled a gun and fired a shot" at Hollman, Wallace said.
Hollman suffered a gunshot wound to the back of the head and remains in critical condition in a medical facility in Hamburg, authorities said.
Wallace said he and Ktytor followed Allabaugh outside. He said he spotted Allabaugh up the street walking away, but then Allabaugh turned around.
"He took his gun and pointed it at us, shooting," Wallace recalled.
"We're talking about Main Street, Plymouth?" Ferentino asked.
"Main Street, Plymouth," Wallace responded.
Allabaugh kept coming toward them firing, Wallace said.
"Obviously, he was trying to kill us – in my eyes," Wallace said.
At some point, Luzetsky exited the bar. Wallace said he saw Luzetsky get shot in the abdomen.
Luzerne County Acting Coroner William Lisman testified Luzetsky was pronounced dead at the scene from multiple gunshot wounds.
Allabaugh's attorneys tried to get Magisterial District Judge Donald Whittaker to drop first-degree murder charges, arguing prosecutors didn't establish Allabaugh's intent.
Ferentino argued Allabaugh intended to kill by pointing a deadly weapon at two innocent people and firing multiple gunshots.
Whittaker forwarded all charges to Luzerne County Court.

April 13, 2012
By Tom Weber
CARBONDALE, Ill. - What a difference one week made for the Saluki football team's offense.
Last Saturday, the offense committed seven turnovers in the team's first scrimmage of the spring. This morning's scrimmage was a complete reversal, as the unit scored eight touchdowns.
Almost all of the offense came through the air, as four quarterbacks combined to complete 32-of-46 passes for 385 yards and seven TDs. The team's starting quarterback, Kory Faulkner, was 13-of-15 and guided an impressive no-huddle scoring drive of 70 yards that culminated in a six-yard scoring strike to tight end MyCole Pruitt. It was Pruitt's third touchdown reception of the day.
Offensive coordinator Kalen DeBoer said his group was anxious to redeem itself after the first scrimmage's subpar performance.
"It's the same exact plays that we ran last week, we just executed better," he said. "There better be motivation after last Saturday, and I think our week of practice was more consistent."
The offense established the short passing game early, softened up the defense, and then hit some big plays later. Midway through the scrimmage, quarterback A.J. Hill connected with receiver John Lantz on a 70-yard touchdown strike on a deep post, and later hit Pruitt on a 50-yard flag route for a score.
Freshman QBs Matt Lipham and Matt Vincent also made big plays for the offense. Lipham completed a 24-yard touchdown pass to Israel Lamprakes, while Vincent threw a rope across the field to Chris Marshall for a 29-yard gain.
Although he didn't catch a touchdown pass, the top receiving threat was LaSteven McKinney, who caught eight passes for 73 yards. The majority of his yardage came after the catch, thanks to his dazzling quickness.
"Our quarterbacks are more aware of what LA is capable of doing," DeBoer said of the explosive slot receiver. "Why not give him a chance to make a play?"
Defensive coordinator Bubba Schweigert's unit intercepted two passes on the day, including a pick-six by safety Luke Thuston, but the offense clearly had the upper hand overall.
"I wasn't very happy with our performance today," he said. "You can't give up big pass plays. We did it out of zone coverage, we did it out of pressure, we did it out of blitzes."
The only area where the defense dominated was in the running game. The offense combined to rush for just 40 yards on 24 carries.
"We've been good against the run," Schweigert said. "The frustrating thing is that you (stop the run) to pressure the passer and get big plays on second-and-long and third-and-long. We didn't finish the deal."
The Salukis will hold their annual Spring Game next Friday at 7 p.m.

The process of public policymaking is normally very complex, involving hundreds of actors from interest groups, governmental institutions, political parties, journalists, and the research community who have different goals, perceptions of the situation, and policy preferences. In any given policy domain, such as health care, there are normally dozens of programs involving multiple levels of government. Given this complexity, the analyst must find some way of simplifying the situation in order to have any chance of understanding it. This normally involves the development of a theoretical framework that identifies which factors and relationships are critical and which can be ignored. Theories of the Policy Process provides a forum for the proponents of several of the most promising and widely used theoretical frameworks to present the basic propositions of their frameworks, to assess the empirical evidence that has developed, and to discuss promising directions for future research. The first edition contained analyses of Institutional Rational Choice (Ostrom), Multiple Streams (Zahariadis), Punctuated Equilibrium (Jones et al.) Advocacy Coalition Framework (Sabatier and Weible), and Policy Diffusion (Berry & Berry). The second edition revises these and adds new chapters on Social Construction and Policy Design (Schneider et al.) and Policy Networks (Adam and Kriesi). It also contains a much more serious analysis of that European literature relevant to each of the frameworks. Finally, the new edition contains a revised chapter by Edella Schlager presenting a comparative analysis and evaluation of the relevant frameworks and a concluding chapter by the editor suggesting a number of strategies for improving the state of theorizing in this field.

The advance of online higher education has led to rapid course and program development, the sudden appearance of new colleges across the internet landscape, and passionate debates about the value of online higher education and the best way to implement that education. However, one issue has been overlooked: the importance of extracurricular activities to the college experience. In the current conception of online college, shaped by the perils of life in an uncertain economy, the primary goal is the efficient completion of degrees that will lead to employment. In that scenario, it is certainly easy to dismiss the traditional activities available to college students at brick-and-mortar campuses. After all, how much does belonging to a club or participating in an extracurricular sports activity, service organization, or other non-academic or non-professional activity help a student complete their degree and secure employment?
Quite a bit, it turns out. Research shows that extracurricular activities are central to many issues relevant to online college students and their career goals. For example, Brian C. Briggeman and F. Bailey Norwood, in their article "Employer Assessment of the College Graduate: What Advisors Need to Know" in the Journal of Natural Resources and Life Sciences Education, demonstrate that , while it might not be the most important factor in hiring, employers definitely consider the role of non-academic activities in the new college graduate's life, because it shows them that the job candidate knows how to work with others.
Similarly, an investigation by Shouping Hu and Gregory C. Wolniak, published in Research in Higher Education, shows that "social engagement was positively related to early career earnings of college graduates while academic engagement was not." In 2009, University of Illinois Professor Christy Lleras also argued "that 'soft skills' such as sociability, punctuality, conscientiousness and an ability to get along well with others, along with participation in extracurricular activities, are better predictors of earnings and higher educational achievement later in life than having good grades and high standardized test scores."
So what are online colleges doing to help students participate in extracurricular activities? Not as much as they should. To be fair, it's a difficult situation: By definition, the typical online college student does not interact in person with other students or faculty. The insularity and isolation that online students may experience in their solitary pursuit of academic achievement would seem to preclude any attempt to provide opportunities for extracurricular or social activities. Also, many non-traditional students, including students with children and/or full-time jobs, enroll in online colleges to further their careers and simply do not have the same kind of opportunities to explore leisure time options as do traditional students living on a traditional college campus campus. And the economic necessity of holding at least a part-time job, even for traditional students, means that the last thing that many students can squeeze into their often overscheduled lives is an extracurricular activity.
But several online colleges have made the effort to create some sort of online activity that, while not always related to academic coursework, can be beneficial in helping students develop social skills and interact with their peers:
- Pennsylvania State University's World Campus: Online psychology students can join the online psychology club. This club has members from all over the United States and countries around the world, holds online meetings with video conferencing, provides a newsletter to members, and uses Second Life and Facebook to connect with members.
- Kaplan University offers a variety of options for online extracurricular activities, including clubs, honor societies and different organizations. For example, Kaplan University created the first online chapter of Golden Key honor society. Honorary members include former presidents Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton, humanitarian and Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel, entertainers Bill Cosby and Dolly Parton, and many others. Though the Golden Key honor society has come under fire in recent years for spending more on employee salaries than on scholarships, students can still gain valuable information and experiences as part of the society. Kaplan also offers the first ever online Student Bar association through its Concord Law School.
- Ashford University offers online students membership in the Alpha Lambda chapter of Alpha Sigma Lambda, a national honor society that pays particular attention to including online and non-traditional students.
- Berkeley College reports that "online students have their own student organizations, such as the Online Book Club, the Fashion Club, the Poetry Club, the Parents' Café, and the Healthy Café. Online students can also participate in various discussion boards, contests, and community outreach programs through Blackboard and can volunteer to become a peer mentor for new online students, assisting them with their transition into the online community."
But even if a college does not offer online extracurricular activities through its own site, online students can get involved in online activities, clubs, and organizations that will help develop their connections, social skills, and leadership abilities. For example, the Mathematical Association of America offers membership to online students, and the College Blender website publishes news and updates about college life, including different online extracurricular activities available across the country.
The benefits of extracurricular activities have been proven many times, and they have been shown to be beneficial to students seeking employment upon graduation. However, the benefits of such activities do not just fall within the parameters of a job search. Online colleges need to take seriously the mission and purpose of a college education beyond the careerist goals of many students, and include consideration of the intellectual lives of their students as well. In her book "Not for Profit: Why Democracy Needs the Humanities," University of Chicago Professor of Law and Ethics Martha Nussbaum makes an excellent case for the retention of less economically-driven motivations for college completion, arguing that the very nature of democratic cooperation is dependent upon the abilities of citizens to collaborate and cooperate. For example, she writes that the Humanities are necessary for understanding the human experience: "As we tell stories about the lives of others, we learn how to imagine what another creature might feel in response to various events. At the same time, we identify with the other creature and learn something about ourselves."
This empathy can be achieved through reading literature, studying history and art, or through interpersonal interactions such as those we experience in social activities. For online students, then, the need for extracurricular activities goes beyond the desire to have good things on one's resume. It speaks to the need of all college students—of all people—to experience things outside their comfort zones, to come into contact with difference, to develop their intellectual selves as well as their professional selves. College extracurricular activities have been valued as a path toward such experiences for hundreds of years, and there is no reason why online colleges cannot provide that crucial component of intellectual and social growth for their own students.

Often I will send debugging info to my log file from within Java, and it helps to give decent information as to where in the code the log message was generated so I can quickly refer back to it. I don't want to hard-code anything in the log message about its location, because I have to remember to update the log message if I rename its method or otherwise refactor the code into a different structure. I'd love to have a static function that simply returns the calling function's class and method name. For example, if I have a class called Machine and a method called doStuff, I'd like my log message generation code in that method to look something like this:
String log_msg = Blah.getClassAndMethodName()+" did the wrong thing!";
The static method getClassAndMethodName() in class Blah would return "Machine.doStuff". That way, when I look at the log file, I can easily tell where in the code the message was generated. I realize this is a bit tricky, since I need this method in Blah to return information about its calling function in a separate class, Machine, but this would make it easy to just use this static call anywhere.
I don't know if this is possible, but I'd appreciate any pointers towards an answer! Also, assuming it is possible, is this a particularly high overhead kind of operation? (I'm assuming reflection would be needed, not my strong suit)

Okay, perhaps that's a corny title, but you get the idea…it's Spring! Time to get going on what we do best here at Potted, Container Gardening. I thought I'd share some ideas of ones we've either done at the store or for a client or in our own homes to get your creative juices flowing (and get you all ready for the new That's So Potted Contest coming up very soon).
Usually when people think of container gardening for edibles, they think of raised beds like the Mini Farm Boxes we sell online. And while I love my raised bed, I like using colorful pots like these to add visual interest in my garden as well as growing items that might not play nice in the the larger bed (like mint, anyone? I have three difference pots with three different kinds of mint). Actually big bowls like this are perfect for lettuce too as you can easily move it to keep these delicate leafy greens from getting too much sun. These two bowls actually got featured in a segment on NBC News featuring Sunset Magazine's New Western Gardening Book so they look extra special.
And don't be afraid to pair edibles with flowers, which work especially well to attract bees for pollination. And use my trick…I always photograph whatever seeds I've put into a container so I remember later. We sell Baker Creek Seeds which if you ever get a chance to go to Petaluma, California has the most amazing literal Seed Bank I've ever seen. Check out my blog post from last year if you're curious.
But of course, what we really love at Potted is succulents and cactus. This little Lava Stone Pot is crammed full of echeverias and sits prettily against a stucco wall.
And here is a Geo Planter from designer Kelly Lamb that we are now carrying in the store and online. This beautiful pot also comes in a hanging version and we are really excited to be featuring them at Potted.
This Julius Planter is an elegant abode for the sculptural Squid Agave.
And this bowl has made me happy for years. When the Aeoniums get too tall and the bowl becomes ungainly, I just break them off and put them back in so the bowl keeps its shape.
The soft pink of this Afterglow pops against the black pot it lives in.
Color can be used either with the plants or with the pots, as with this grouping that uses all blue pots and even goes so far as to put in the blue bottles.
And the yellows flowers from these Echeverias match beautifully with this yellow pot.
Here's a grouping of yellow and chartreuse pots. Keeping containers in one or two colors gives you a strong sense of design.
This pot by Champa Ceramics is planted with a Leucadendron and a Ruffled Echeveria. By choosing plants that grow up instead of cascading down, you don't cover the beautiful design on this gorgeous pot.
Here we planted an Orinoco Bowl with succulents and pieces of slate so you could use it as a table too.
And last but not least, here is an old fountain basin I've planted with dwarf Mondo Grass that can be used as a seat. I got the idea from our good friend designer Dustin Gimbel who made his lawn chair out of St. Augustine Grass and I thought it was such a cool idea I had to try to make one of my own (plus he gave me a bunch of dwarf Mondo Grass too!)

Supreme Court: 'Constitutional problems'
"The Supreme Court of Florida has said that the legislature intended the State's electors to 'participate fully in the federal electoral process' ... as provided in 3 U.S.C. 5. "That statute, in turn, requires that any controversy or contest that is designed to lead to a conclusive selection of electors be completed by December 12. That date is upon us, and there is no recount procedure in place under the State Supreme Court's order that comports with minimal constitutional standards. "Because it is evident that any recount seeking to meet the December 12 date will be unconstitutional for the reasons we have discussed, we reverse the judgment of the Supreme Court of Florida ordering a recount to proceed. Seven Justices of the Court agree that there are constitutional problems with the recount ordered by the Florida Supreme Court that demand a remedy.... The only disagreement is as to the remedy."
-From the Dec. 12 per curiam opinion of seven justices in the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in the presidential election

Program for the Study of Sexuality, Gender, Health, and Human Rights
Program Seminar (Fall 2002)
Fellowship Application (2003-2004)
Program Description
The Program for the Study of Sexuality, Gender, Health and Human Rights invites applications from postdoctoral scholars, advocates, and activists conducting innovative interdisciplinary work on the intersecting themes of sexuality, gender, health and human rights in U.S. and international contexts. Please note that this Program is a residential fellowship program and not a course. (Individuals seeking courses that address the themes of this Program may wish to explore the University of Amsterdam's Summer Institute on Sexuality, Culture, and Society.)
The Program aims to provide a supportive intellectual location to further the sometimes separate conversations and advances that have occurred within studies of sexuality, gender, health, and human rights. Despite new efforts to integrate human rights frameworks into feminist agendas and to frame health as a human right, the relationship of innovative scholarship and activism about sexuality to health and human rights remains to be explored. During their residencies in the Program, fellows will examine the challenges and lessons posed by integrating sexuality, gender, health and human rights in theory, research, and advocacy. Our focus is on examining and expanding traditional definitions and boundaries, while acknowledging conditions of inequality, marginality, and post-coloniality.
Each year, the Program will award fellowships of varying lengths (for one year, one term, and shorter residencies from 2-6 months) and invite fellows to participate in interdisciplinary forums and seminars which bring together scholars, researchers, and advocates. The Program will provide fellows with a fellowship stipend, access to libraries, computer facilities, office space and equipment, as well as health insurance. Fellows may draw on the full range of teaching and research resources offered at Columbia University.
The Program is located at Columbia University, in the Division of Sociomedical Sciences at the School of Public Health, which sponsors interdisciplinary scholarship that crosses traditional boundaries of health, humanities, and the social sciences, while incorporating questions of advocacy and activism. The Program is directed by Carole S. Vance.

Dear Maija,
I just started dating this guy and he's really sweet and cute and all that stuff. Problem is, he is very dedicated to his band and making it big in music. It consumes a lot of his free time and he works really, really hard at it, which is fine. The issue is I HATE HIS BAND. I've seen them play a couple of times, but now I just make excuses for why I can't go. Of course, I tell them they're "great" and he doesn't know I secretly think they're worst than Richard Marx on a stick.
So do I tell him I don't like his music and would rather stick a lit cigarette in my eye than hear another note, risking a break-up? Or do I bite my tongue and wait around for what I'm certain will be the band's failure to move beyond basement parties and small club shows playing for 20 people?
Torn, here's the cold hard truth: Most bands suck. The art school folky screeching owl Nebraska octet that Pitchfork decides to propel into greatness with a 9.3 rating sucks. Coldplay? Sucks. Even U2 sucks. So in the world of dating guys in bands that suck, you aren't and will never be alone (see Heidi Klum).
In fact, I consider myself an expert in this field as I spent a majority of my teens and very early twenties romantically involved with and physically on top of musicians in sucky bands — empirically speaking. (It all started when I showed Brian Penick my boobs sophmore year of high school.) I'm talking like mid-level Orange County/Long Island Pop Punkers with styled hair, studded belts and lyrics about breakups and bleeding on shirts and those Hardcore guys who do the internal vulture scream thing.
Eventually some of them wound up being radio friendly (really good for them), but back then I spent most weekends behind Bogart's smoking cigarettes, drinking pink wine and wearing camouflaged mini skirts and trucker hats.
Looking back, I realize it was because I had low self-esteem and somehow making out with the guitarist from Home Grown in a tiny tour bus bunk made me feel better about myself and very skinny. (I can't believe two grown humans can fit in those things … like Japanese people in drawers.) And while these groupie memories are met with a certain sense of nostalgia and lost adventure, some of them I'd rather forget and most of them I should have been drunk enough not to remember.
So, in reality, dating a guy in a "bar band" that only people in Wilder, Ky. and Fields-Ertel are going to hear is a whole hell of a lot less embarrassing than owning up to the fact that you were on Shifty Shellshock's tour bus hooking up with Crazy Town's merch dude. OK? OK.
I never did that,
Dear Maija,
I've been reading your column for a couple weeks and have found your advice to be really helpful because I can't make decisions on my own and know very little about anything. But your advice last week really fucked my shit up. Here's what happened: I, like your reader "Lonely and Employed in Loveland," have a crush on a coworker who is a subordinate. Like him, I've been having trouble asking her out because I'm scared to get written up again for harassment (the first one was a complete misunderstanding, seriously). But I thought that the "Check yes, no or maybe" idea was vague enough even if she realizes that what I'm asking for is to wear my Boomer Esiason helmet while we have sex on my boss' desk.
The problem is that I wrote this on the back of a reused sheet of paper faxed to us by that crazy church in Kansas that protests soldier funerals, and it really freaked her out. Now I'm wondering if you're even real or if it's just a joke to make stupid people do stupid things and ruin their lives. If that's the case, it's unconscionable and you're a total dick.
— Fired and Sad in Fairfield
Is this a serious question?
You're stupid,

Sep 29 2009Listen To This 'Wild Things' Music
Want to spend your day listening to music that alternates between melancholy anthems and twee Langley School-style child choirs? Sure you do; this music is in a movie picture!
Karen O's Where the Wild Things Are soundtrack is now streaming free on this internet device. Listen to it loud to show your co-workers that you're aware of more music than just early Steely Dan albums. They've been talking about that behind your back.
(via JoBlo)
Reader Comments
i will listen to no such thing!
4 tracks in. I love it already.
Fucking brilliant.
10 points for using "twee" in the middle of a sentence
I can't wait until this movie comes out so I don't have to read about it every other day on this site.
anyone know where to get the arcade fire 'wake up' acoustic? (the full version, not just the audio ripped from the trailer..)
will it be on the soundtrack?
just listened to every song... wow. loved it
Fucking hipster ass garbage shit fuck piss goddamn this movie makes me rage like an entire bowl full of Hulks. Fuuuck!
Looking forward to it.
Where is the music that was done for the trailer? I thought Arcade Fire would be doing the soundtrack. This music sucks. I was looking forward to this but not so much now. I want Arcade Fire Music.
who decided it would be a good idea to put a children's choir in this soundtrack?
Listening to the sounds of the birds makes mind really calm. There are lot of albums published regarding this forest music.
I am going to buy this album (i.e. download it for free). :P

Visit XXX Teen Couples
Heads Up!
This review is outdated. Information may be inaccurate.
This review is outdated. Information may be inaccurate.
XXX Teen Couples relies on several fun facts: Teens like to be naughty, teens like to play with each other and teens like to film things. Another fact is that teens can be quite hot and the videos on this site provide ample proof of that.
There is something to be said for real people fucking. On XXXTeenCouples, there aren't any airbrushed pornstars, no unnaturally large boobs and no absurd positions that look fun, but are, in reality, uncomfortable. The site isn't particularly dazzling, but it keeps with the homemade theme of the site. It is also very simple to find all the steamy personal videos of couples having sex that brought you here in the first place.
The flicks show everyday people having the kind of sex that everyday people have. Girls give guys head, dudes go down on their lovers and horny couples fuck until they're both spent. The action isn't always captured from the most exciting angles, but it's often captivating all the same.
The videos mostly offer good-quality playback, but you will find a few HD ones. They all average around 20 minutes and can be enjoyed in their full-lengths and also as clips. All the clips come in high and low-quality versions for users with different bandwidths and speed requirements.
In all, there are 76 videos and they are adding a new one once a week. There aren't any photos for you to enjoy, but there are extras that you can keep busy with. You have access to a network called XXX Home Video, which means you can explore nearly a dozen additional websites, including Homemade Creampies, Camcorder XXX and Explicit Voyeurs. They bring you more amateur porn. You can also check out video feeds and DVDs.
XXX Teen Couples is a decent site and one that you might enjoy for a month or two (depending on how fast you consume the collection). However, you might want to stick with it for longer than that if it continues to grow and also if you enjoy all the amateur action on the bonus sites.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.
