Campus Conversation Partners connect through language, friendship
Keary Saul has always longed to travel to distant lands.
"I have a strong, unsatisfied wanderlust, but so far, most of my international travels have been imaginary ones," says Saul, a Des Moines native who works as a secretary in the University of Iowa Department of Neurology.
So when Saul received a mass e-mail about a new UI program, Campus Conversation Partners—which connects nonnative English speakers with members of the UI faculty and staff for informal conversation and friendship—she jumped at the chance to get involved.
Staff, faculty honored for outstanding work
Thirteen staff members and six faculty members at The University of Iowa received awards for excellence in 2008. The staff were recognized with one of three annual staff awards for excellence presented by the UI Staff Council, including the Board of Regents Staff Excellence Awards; the honored faculty also received Excellence Awards from the Regents.

When Emily Browning, the Australian-born fashion model and star of Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004), auditioned for Sucker Punch, Zack Snyder's hard-hitting tribute to girl power, the director made her an offer she could have refused. But she didn't.
"Zack asked me to put myself on tape, singing, which I'd never done before," says Browning, 22. "I was terrified, of course. But he liked it. I have no idea why, but he thought me capable of carrying a tune on screen."
And not just any tune. When Snyder, who in 1992 directed a music video for Morrissey, the lugubrious ex-frontman for The Smiths, told Browning he'd acquired the rights to "Asleep," from the band's 1987 hits compilation Louder Than Bombs, he surprised her once again, asking if she'd feel comfortable performing lead vocals.
"The Smiths are my favorite band," she says. "I made Zack tell me everything about Morrissey. The offer was flattering, but there was so much pressure. I couldn't say no, though. Zack tells me Morrissey's heard it and is happy with it. But is Morrissey happy ever? I don't know if I believe it."
Browning ended up singing three songs featured in Punch – covers of "Asleep," the Eurythmics' "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" and "Where Is My Mind?" by the Pixies. Still, acting remains her first love. In the movie, opening Friday, she plays Babydoll, a fresh-faced inmate at a Vermont asylum, institutionalized against her will by an abusive stepfather.
Babydoll copes with the cold reality of life in the ward by inventing fantasies of freedom and triumph. One minute she's the main attraction at an upscale brothel, dancing her way into the hearts of men she hopes to destroy; the next, she's a fearless warrior, battling the demons out to break her spirit.
The movie's message, and the chance to work with Snyder, were foremost in Browning's mind when she auditioned for Punch. "Babydoll doesn't understand her sexuality, and it's been used against all her life," she says. "It frightens her, but over the course of the film she learns to own and control it.
"Within the world of the brothel, but not in the film itself, the girls are being objectified. But the battle scenes are about the girls not allowing themselves to be objects anymore and finding their inner strength."
Snyder, 45, agrees, adding that Browning is the only actress he can imagine playing his strong-willed heroine. "Babydoll symbolizes that transition between thinking like a child and thinking like an adult, when your perception of the world changes," he says.
"She is a warrior, both delicate and strong at the same moment, and Emily really personified everything I had envisioned about Babydoll. She has this mystic, timeless, almost unquantifiable look and completely brought the character to life for me."

It would be easy to close the book and say justice has been served in the Steubenville, Ohio, rape case.
Two high school football stars were found guilty Sunday of raping an intoxicated 16-year-old at a party in a case that became a national scandal after videos and photos of the assault wound up on YouTube and Instagram.
The text messages, pictures and jokey tweets that teenagers from the party shared online suggest a communal lack of conscience. That made it easy to blame locals so enamored of their football team that jocks thought they could get away with just about anything.
But this isn't just about the athletes and small-town ennui.
We've had similar episodes elsewhere, and the common links go beyond cellphones and criminal conduct. They involve teenage girls who were so intoxicated during the assaults that they could not remember what happened.
That doesn't excuse the conduct of the young men; what they did was not only illegal but horrifically immoral.
But binge drinking is an ingredient in this toxic stew that we can't afford to keep ignoring.
Nationally, 1 in 5 teenage girls today goes on regular drinking binges. I'm not talking about college students, but 15-, 16- and 17-year-olds, who down four drinks or more in a single session at least once a month. If you count occasional binge drinking, half of 10th-grade girls engage and more than 60 percent of seniors, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
As the mother of three daughters, I stumble over my feelings when cases like this occur.
I've always tried to remind my girls, now grown, about choices that might make them vulnerable: how they dress, whom they hang out with, how much alcohol they drink.
Conversations like that are hard to have without sounding like you're blaming the victim.
I know whose side I'm on. I'm beyond angry at teenage boys who view girls as objects and violate them callously.
I'm also worried about teenage girls who wake up in the morning and don't know what happened while they were blacked out from drinking.
I understand the reluctance in this case to talk about the victim. No one wants to heap scorn on a girl who's suffered such indignities.
According to testimony at the trial, the Steubenville victim had been so intoxicated the night before, she fought her friends when they tried to get her to leave the party. She was so drunk she could barely speak, stumbled when she tried to walk and sank to her knees in the middle of the street to vomit — en route to a second party.
That's what binge drinking does. A friend testified that they had shared at least half a bottle of vodka.
The two boys convicted of rape told the court their sexual encounters were consensual. The videos, texts and tweets told another story.
For a long time, we've relied on the slogan "No means no" to empower girls and let boys know that it's not OK to talk your way to consent.
But when 10th-graders are routinely getting too drunk to resist, then we need to add a message to that lesson: It's against the law to have sexual relations with a person who is too intoxicated to agree. If you think she's had too much to drink, then you'd better back off.
We have to impress upon our sons and daughters the dangers of binge drinking, which has become the norm at too many high school parties. First, though, we have to face the reality that these are not the keggers of our youth. There are more ways than before to get wasted.
We need to make this an object lesson, and not just about what happens when you cross the line and sex becomes a crime. It's what can happen when you get so drunk that you have to rely on texts and tweets to know what happened to you the night before.

With A. Maceo Smith closing, most athletes to play next year at reopened Wilmer-Hutchins in Class 3A
A. Maceo Smith is closing its doors at the end of this school year, which means all returning high school athletes will have to play for other teams next year.
Dallas ISD athletic director Jeff Johnson said about 80 percent of A. Maceo Smith's student body would attend the reopened Wilmer-Hutchins next school year with the others being split among Roosevelt and South Oak Cliff. A. Maceo Smith football coach/athletic coordinator Elzie Barnett will take over the same positions at Wilmer-Hutchins next school year, Johnson said.
Also, Wilmer-Hutchins will take the place of A. Maceo Smith in District 12-3A and take over the same schedules in all sports, Johnson said. Wilmer-Hutchins will have all four grades of high school and compete in varsity athletics in all sports, Johnson said.
Johnson said the Dallas ISD has already redrawn the district lines for the reopened Wilmer-Hutchins, South Oak Cliff and Roosevelt and it's in draft form, still awaiting final approval. Johnson said once the new district lines gain final approval, students and their parents at A. Maceo Smith would be informed of where the students will attend school next year.
That means running back/defensive back LaDarrell McNeil and wide receiver/defensive back Damien Lawry, both seniors next year who are among the area's top football recruits in the Class of 2012, will likely attend Wilmer-Hutchins next season and play again for Barnett. But that's anyone's guess at this point. Barnett, McNeil and Lawry haven't returned phone calls to answer that question. I did get the chance to ask Barnett in a text message to his cell phone where McNeil and Lawry would attend school next year, and his response was, "I can't say."

Hollywood, CA (PRWEB) August 16, 2012
Finalists for the 2nd Quarter of the 23rd year of the L. Ron Hubbard Illustrators of the Future Contest were announced today by Joni Labaqui, the contest Director, and all were from the US.
"We had entries this quarter from the United Kingdom, Mexico, Australia, Czech Republic and Slovenia, but only Americans made it to finalist", Labaqui said, "and that is unusual. Contest judging is anonymous. The judges simply look at the art, not the name, background, where they are from or any other information about the contestant."
The finalists this quarter range from age 21 to 60. The contest is open to all who wish to pursue a career in illustration but are not professionals yet.
Second Quarter Finalists
Samuel Baydresch of Missouri
Jared Collins of New York
Lucas Durham of Illinois
Jon Eno of Texas
Joshua Hood of Idaho
Luis Menacho of New York
Ron Sanders of California
Karen Slater of California
The eight finalists art is sent to four of the contest judges. Of the eight finalists, three will be winners of the quarter. The three winners of each quarter are awarded cash prizes, a week long intensive workshop, an awards ceremony and are also published in the annual L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future. Writers have their own contest and our winning illustrators illustrate the winning writers stories. The judging process, once the finalists are determined by the coordinating judge, takes a little over a month.
A Grand Prize winner is announced at the annual awards ceremony and is selected from another panel of judges and receives an additional $5,000.00.

Reasons to abandon single speed riding (in no particular order): -30 gear drivetrains. I'm sorry, they cost how much? Whatever, your knees will cost more to replace than that, and at any rate the maintenance can't be all that bad. Can it? 50 miles of variable winds make gears seem almost necessary. -The whole SS thing was a fad. -As a cyclist, you profess to like all types of riding, but on your SS you're not at the crest of the wave anymore; its glory has passed. To those who are cyclists, it is now obvious that you are completely ex-post-fashion and definitely the wanker they suspected you of being all along, only moreso. To non-cyclists you always looked like a wanker anyway. Better to cut your losses. -Gears on mountain bikes let you get up and over more stuff because you have leverage. It's nice to know that 28 tooth is there when you need it. And as for road, well who wants to ride a century on a SS? Remember how often when riding your SS you bitched under your breath (or maybe not so under your breath) that you needed something just a bit easier? -Every hipster riding around town has 3 main accoutrements to show off his/her uber-hipster stylings: 1) at least one visible tattoo, likely on the theme of mis-interpretted chinese characters ("someone told me this means 'strength'". It doesn't.); 2) excitingly retro glasses, more than likely bought at a fancy shop specializing in rummaging through relatives' basements for old junk then selling this junk at high mark-up in same shop; 3) a single speed bike, often times a fixed gear. -What were you thinking? Single speeds aren't easier. They weigh almost the same as your geared bike, and cost almost as much to set up. -You just want to ride, man. It's too much to think about. Reasons to abandon riding geared bikes: -30 gears? What's the point? Geared right, and properly fitted to your bike, you're not going to blow out your knees. Geared bikes have tons of weight-adding, pointless gear overlap, and anyway who has the patience for fiddling with that stuff every 100 miles? -Sick of all this trend-heavy technology. Geared bikes are based on trickle-down race technology and therefore are far more faddish than SSs ever were. Simplicity, man. -As a cyclist, you profess to like all types of riding, but at least on a SS you are not a slave to the fancies of fast changing technologies and non-standardized component compatibility (um...). On a single speed you look to 'cyclists' like a 'cyclist' ...until they get close to you, and to non-cyclists you look (at least you think) like a normal person just out riding your bike. Except for your shoes. Not much you can do about that. -Everyone rode fixed gears once, even in The Tour. You need something you can take downtown and not worry about getting ripped off, and that you can crash more than once before being denied warranty. Offroad, you can rip the rollers faster on a SS because they teach you how to pick a line better and how to maintain momentum. Remember how often when riding your geared bike you bitched under your breath (insert clever rejoinder here) because your derailleur couldn't find the gear you needed when you needed it? -You'd rather get lumped in with the hipsters than look like one of those fools who think that if they dress like Lance they'll ride like him too. Overpriced retro glasses still look better than one of those logo-festooned 'kits'. -What were you thinking? Geared bikes aren't easier! They weigh almost the same thing as your SS and cost a bit more to set up. -You just want to ride, man. It's too much to think about. -----

Habituation Learning in Cuttlefish
by: Deann Dixon, Major: Psychology
Aleta Estrada, Major: Animal Behavior
Ryan Suarez, Major: Psychology
Habituation involves the waning of a response to a repeatedly presented stimulus that is not associated with events of biological significance. The evidence for habituation learning in cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis and Sepia pharaonis) is not convincing. Habituation like effects were reported by Sanders & Young, 1940; Messenger, 1973; and Messenger, 1977. For each of these studies, the experimental paradigm was the same. A cuttlefish was placed in a tank and presented with prawns that were contained within a glass tube. The cuttlefish would show is species typical attention, position, and attack responses. Strike response rates decreased within and between sessions and this response was interpreted as habituation. The cuttlefish may have stopped striking the glass because it hurt to do so, not because it habituated to the sight of the prawn. Evidence that striking the glass was painful was demonstrated by Messenger, 1973. Messenger clipped off the two tentacles and presented cuttlefish with prawns held in a tube. Without tentacles, cuttlefish persisted in "striking" the glass for a significantly longer period of time than cuttlefish with tentacles. Still, even with no tentacles, the strike response rate decreased within a session. It is possible that the decrease of the "pseudo-strike" demonstrated habituation. But, it is also possible, that the decrease in striking behavior was attributable to motor fatigue.
In light of the lack of evidence for habituation learning in cuttlefish we conducted a study to determine if cuttlefish are capable of habituation learning and to see if they exhibit both short-term and long-term habituation effects. Twenty-four cuttlefish were obtained from the National Resource Center for Cephalopods in Galveston, Texas and then placed in individual tanks. Cuttlefish were maintained in a closed water filtration system and were fed frozen shrimp. Cuttlefish were assigned randomly to one of four groups. Group Fish-Fish received a 25-minute exposure to a one-gallon glass container that contained a small fish. After 25 minutes the container was removed and replaced in the tank for five more minutes. Group Shrimp-Shrimp received a 25-minute exposure to a live shrimp. The container was removed and then replaced for five minutes. Group Fish-Shrimp were exposed to a fish for 25-minutes and then the container was replaced for five minutes with a container that held a live shrimp. Group Shrimp-Fish received a 25-minute exposure to a live shrimp followed by five minute exposure to a live fish. Trials were conducted daily for a total of ten days and all trials were videotaped. All groups showed both short-term habituation and long-term habituation effects. In addition, groups Fish-Shrimp and Shrimp-Fish shoed dishabituation effects, though the dishabituation effect for group Fish-Shrimp showed dishabituation effects, though the dishabituation effect for group Fish-Shrimp was stronger than that shown for Shrimp-Fish. No dishabituation effects were seen for groups Fish-Fish and group Shrimp-Shrimp. The finding that changing the stimulus from fish to shrimp or from shrimp to fish caused the cuttlefish to resume striking the container ruled out explanations based on motor fatigue or pain avoidance and supported our contention that cuttlefish are capable of habituation learning. This is the first time habituation effects have been observed in this species under controlled conditions.

- Water Resources (2008)
priorities (2005)
The Mt. Ascutney Region River Subcommittee includes the
New Hampshire towns of Plainfield, Cornish, Claremont, and
Charlestown, and the Vermont towns of Hartland, Windsor,
Weathersfield, Springfield, and Rockingham. The Subcommittee
has concentrated its planning upon the 39 miles of the
Connecticut River in this segment and the land adjacent to
the river up to Route 12A in New Hampshire and Route 5 in
Vermont. The Subcommittee has formally considered a number
of aspects of this corridor: the water quality, the
fisheries, the habitats, agriculture and forestry,
recreation, and development. For each category, we have
tried to identify current and potential problems, as well as
opportunities. Finally, we have made recommendations which
we feel represent a positive, consensus-based response to
these problems.
The river's designations in the New Hampshire Rivers
Management and Protection Act reflect the predominantly
rural and undeveloped character of the land in this
corridor. The character of the river itself, however, is
distinctly different in the northern and southern sections.
In the northern 18 miles the river is shallow and flows
rapidly, dropping through Sumner Falls and numerous other
rapids and riffles. Below the Claremont/Ascutney Bridge, the
river is deeper and more slow moving, impounded behind the
hydroelectric dam at Bellows Falls.
Fisheries: The fast-flowing northern section
provides particularly valuable cold-water fishery habitat,
although the trout population is not strong. The warm water
fishery of the Bellows Falls impoundment has gained
attention as a fine bass fishery, attracting bass tournament
fishermen. Largemouth bass beds occur in all river setbacks,
where winter ice fishing is also popular.
Habitat: The region from Weathersfield Bow north
beyond the Mt. Ascutney Region has become known to
biologists at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and EPA as
the Connecticut River Rapids Macrosite, because of its
concentration of ecologically significant habitats and its
populations of rare, threatened, and endangered species,
some of whom are recognized on a federal or even global
level. The confluences of tributaries are also important
aquatic habitat areas.
Some of the best agricultural soil in New England is
found here along the Connecticut River. Extensive flat,
tillable land is a rare resource in the states of Vermont
and New Hampshire. These light, sandy, stone-free soils are
outstanding for cultivation and easily worked early in the
spring, and the riverside microclimate provides an extended
growing season. While a variety of crops are raised and
marketed success-fully here, there is potential for an even
richer variety and a stronger economic contribution. In some
cases this agricultural land functions as flood plain, which
is essential in reducing flood damage. Flat land on terraces
above the river is also highly valued for residential and
commercial development, which inevitably conflicts with long
term agricultural use.
Recreation: Swimming, fishing, boating, camping,
hiking, bicycling, and auto touring along the river are
popular recreational activities. The northern section is a
favorite with canoeists who savor the river's free flowing
character and the rural scenery on the shores. Sumner Falls
offers a chance for advanced paddlers to play and practice
in heavy white water. Below the Ascutney Bridge, the river
is popular for use by powerboats as well as canoes. Hoyt's
Landing in Springfield is one of only three sites in Vermont
accessible to persons with disabilities. There are two
marinas in the region, one off-river in Charlestown, and
another on the river in Rockingham. Abundant scenic views
are a major tourist attraction and make the Mt. Ascutney
Region a desirable place to live.
Historical and Archeological Features: The entire
river corridor contains densely clustered archeological
resources, evidence of early human occupation along the
river's rich bottom lands. Exemplary Federal and Greek
Revival buildings are common, along with later architectural
styles. Many of the village districts and individual
historic sites in the corridor are listed on the National
Register. Rural agricultural landscapes and building
complexes along the river are also of historic value.
Historic sites draw thousands of visitors each year,
benefitting both the attractions themselves and the lodging,
restaurant, and other service industries in the area.
A catch and release fishery has potential in this region.
Higher perch and bass populations may be possible with
better management of water levels at spawning time, and the
walleye fishery could be very good with an increase in
minimum catch size or perhaps with stocking. There is
potential for a Atlantic salmon fishery in both the
tributaries and the mainstem.
There could be expanded markets for local agricultural
products, including a farmers' market which focuses upon
farm products rather than baked goods or crafts, and
horse-drawn sleigh and wagon rides for the large tourist
industry, which in turn could support another market for
hay. Hobby farming offers an opportunity for keeping land
open and maintaining demand for infrastructure and support
services. There is potential for more diversified
agriculture, including more maple sugar production, more
utilization of manure as a cash crop, increased local
production of beef and lamb, production of specialty foods
at commercial cooks' kitchen, more value-added dairy
products, and locally bottled water. Grower cooperatives
could be established and expanded. Farmers could explore
composting of biosolids, leaves, and other organic
recreational opportunities include access for cartop boats
and foot traffic at Plainfield and Windsor, kayaking
competitions at Sumner Falls, and biking or walking paths.
There are opportunities for scientific research into species
and habitats of the Macrosite, and more people could enjoy
birdwatching here. Increases in both agricultural operations
and tourism oriented around the region's strong natural and
cultural heritage ("eco-tourism" and "heritage tourism") are
appropriate in the corridor as long as they are sustainable.
The Herrick's Cove area has hosted the region's largest
antique steamboat rally, and offers potential economic
Each user of the river has individual requirements and
preferences. When these requirements conflict, there are
likely to be problems. A variety of these problems are
identified below.
Water Quality: Water quality throughout this
segment has improved dramatically in the last 25 years. This
is a great achievement, but it has led to the increase in
activities such as swimming and fishing which demand even
cleaner water. Nonpoint sources of pathogens, siltation, and
organic enrichment threaten water quality in the Mt.
Ascutney segment of the Connecticut River. Bacterial
pollution can sometimes make swimming dangerous after heavy
rains. Organic matter and nutrients are entering the reach
from streambank soils, agricultural runoff, and tributaries
like the Black and Sugar rivers. The slower water in the
Bellows Falls impoundment may be partially responsible for
the algal blooms seen in backwater areas, such as the mouth
of the Black River, where heavy mats of algae impact
fishing, boating, swimming, and river aesthetics in the
warmer months.
Other concerns include unwise salt use and storage, snow
dumping in the river, industrial soil contamination, and
household contributions of detergents, fertilizers, and
pesticides. Runoff from roads, parking lots, and upstream
riverfront commercial development may deliver contaminants
such as petroleum products, lead, oil, salt, and litter to
the river.
Fisheries: This segment is a generally healthy
and heavily used fishery, however, pollutants threaten the
health of the fish populations and the humans who eat them.
Concern exists for the discovery in 1986 and 1987 of
chromium and PCBs in fish tissue in this region, and the
possible contamination of mainstem and tributary sediments
with such pollutants. As fish are regularly taken here for
food, particularly perch and walleye, there may be a health
risk in eating these fish. In the impoundment, water
temperature can rise and movement varies in speed, allowing
pollutants to settle into deep holes which may not flush
effectively. Organic enrichment appears to be impacting the
aquatic macro invertebrate population, and perhaps fish
dependent upon them. Bank erosion, which is severe in some
places, can be a major threat to aquatic life, and
contributes sediment which cover fish spawning beds. Boat
wakes caused by water-skiers and high-speed boats contribute
to bank erosion with a subsequent impact upon fisheries.
There are threats to the quantity and diversity of
species in this fishery. Water level manipulation by the
Bellows Falls Dam often leaves bass and perch eggs out of
Habitat: The health and diversity of aquatic and
riverine habitats face threats from several areas. Habitat
fragmentation and loss are occurring through development as
well as by stabilization of the riverbank with riprap. In
addition to the threats to aquatic life posed by diminished
water quality, variable water levels may temporarily or
permanently eliminate instream and shoreline habitat.
Traffic by power boats may disrupt riverbank habitat in the
southern portion. Milfoil has been found at the Springfield
boat landing; this and other exotic aquatic plants and
animals such as the zebra mussel could drastically alter the
biological community of the river, and could also pose a
significant nuisance to fishermen for boat maintenance.
Zebra mussel infestation is considered a strong threat in
this region due to the river's hospitable water chemistry,
heavy use by visiting boaters, and easy highway access from
infested waters such as Lake Champlain. The potential
introduction of zebra mussel is likely to severely impact
other native mussels, including endangered species.
Agriculture: Agriculture is important within the
corridor, with many successful farm-based businesses.
However, this key traditional riverfront land use is
threatened. Some factors, such as commodity agricultural
prices and the funding level for the Cooperative Extension
Service, are beyond any local control. The loss and
fragmentation of farmland for industrial and residential
development is a more local problem, but just as severe.
There is a lack of clarity relating to water withdrawals for
irrigation. Regulations and advised practices for
registration of water withdrawals for irrigation on the New
Hampshire side of the river are not presently mirrored on
the Vermont side. There is concern that instream flow rules
might limit irrigation where and when it is most urgently
Recreation: Use of the river corridor for
recreation is increasing dramatically, as it is on
waterfronts throughout New Hampshire and Vermont. There is a
fundamental threat to most recreational activities when
water quality is degraded. Water quality is diminished after
storms due to combined sewer overflows at sewage treatment
plants upstream and from nonpoint sources. Persistent trash
problems are occurring on the riverbank at boat landings.
Inadequate enforcement of the existing boat speed laws
threatens boater safety and bank stability. Conflicts will
likely increase between canoeists and power boats, and with
jetskis. Sumner Falls continues to be dangerous for the
inexperienced or the careless.
Development: Development in the corridor is a
problem for two basic reasons. First, the river is a force
of nature which tends to work inexorably to carry away
anything near it. Building in the flood plain reduces flood
storage and risks property loss through erosion. Some
buildings and sections of road are located too close to the
river and may require use of riprap or other costly erosion
control. Landfills and septic systems sited too close to the
river, particularly given its potential to erode, threaten
water quality and investments. A second type of problem for
development is that land in the corridor is regarded as a
regional asset. Development near the river, including
floodlighting, can destroy scenic views. Gravel pits and
landfills are also likely problem areas.
Historic/Archeological Resources: Historic
structures are threatened by decay and inflexible building
code requirements. The identity of historic village clusters
and the beauty of historic agricultural landscapes are easy
prey for inappropriate industrial, commercial, and
residential development. Bank erosion and looting threaten
archeological sites. Commercialization in response to
tourism in the area could undermine historic character and
be its own undoing.
The primary objective of this plan to see that the many
resources of the Connecticut River are used and enjoyed in
an equitable, sustainable manner. We have identified three
general directions which serve to move us toward this
objective. First, we should support actions which preserve,
promote, and improve agriculture in the corridor. Most of
the property along the river is owned by individual
landowners who will continue to play a key role in habitat
conservation. Because of the high quality of river bottom
soils for farming, the microclimate along the river, and the
extraordinary scenic value of riverfront farms, the corridor
management plan hopes to support and ensure the continuation
of existing farms and to encourage growth in agriculture
within the river corridor, while minimizing any negative
effects of agricultural activities upon the river.
Second, we should take actions which discourage
construction and land use conversion in the corridor.
Minimal land disturbance activity, other than agriculture,
should take place in the flood plain in order to protect
investments, bank stability, water quality, and habitat,
given the potential for riverbank erosion and channel
movement. Towns should encourage a balance of uses in the
river corridor while recognizing that its long-term economic
value, for tourism, agriculture, recreation and development,
depends upon retaining its present rural character. Economic
development supported by increased heritage tourism will
benefit from the preservation and use of historic structures
without loss of their historic fabric and character.
Finally, we should move away from a water flow management
that is focused primarily on hydroelectric power generation.
Water level management should be better understood by the
area's residents and better accommodate other uses and
values of the river besides hydro power.

This Week's Games
Last Week's Result
Back in the Swing: The Griffins played just one game last week, dropping a 4-3 decision in overtime to the Abbotsford Heat on Wednesday before beginning a five-day Christmas break. They will be back in action on Wednesday at 7 p.m. for a critical North Division road game against the Lake Erie Monsters. The Griffins have played the Monsters twice this month, winning a 3-2 game on Dec. 16 before being shut out 3-0 the following night. The team will return home for its first meeting of the season versus the Peoria Rivermen on Friday at 7 p.m. before taking on the Milwaukee Admirals in the annual New Year's Eve game on Saturday at 6 p.m. to close out 2011.
Climbing the Standings: The Griffins have made up ground in the Western Conference during the month of December, earning points in seven of their nine games this month (and eight of 10 overall) with a 4-2-1-2 record. The team is currently in a three-way tie for third in the North Division with Hamilton and Lake Erie, sitting just three points out of a playoff spot. A successful week could see the Griffins begin 2012 in second place, a spot they haven't held in the North Division since Nov. 2.
North Division Outlook: The North Division continues to be the tightest division in the AHL, with all five teams separated by just eight points, including three that are tied for third place at 28 points. Toronto's once comfortable lead in the division has slipped to just five points, as the Marlies have posted a 4-6 record in their past 10 games to give them 36 points on the season. Rochester sits in second place with 31 points, trailed closely by the trio of teams at 28 points. Hamilton has proved to be the hottest of the bunch, riding an AHL-best six-game point streak (4-0-0-2) into this week, while Grand Rapids and Lake Erie will do battle on Wednesday at 7 p.m. in Cleveland to continue making up ground in the division. The Griffins will look to improve their division-best 8-3 record against North Division foes.
Promotions Galore: The Griffins are closing out 2011 in style, with a pair of home games to welcome in the New Year. Friday's contest versus Peoria features dollar beer and hot dogs from 6-8 p.m., while supplies last, as well as other popular Friday promotions, including: College Night, which allows college students to purchase a lower bowl ticket for $13 (or $11 in advance at The Zone) and stop by the McFadden's concourse table to receive a free pass to the post-game party at McFadden's; and Free Ride Friday, which provides complimentary fare on the Rapid to or from the game by showing your ticket to that night's game. Saturday's contest versus Milwaukee is the 15th Annual New Year's Eve Celebration, featuring giveaways, special jerseys and post-game entertainment. The first 2,000 fans will receive a Griffins team poster, courtesy of Fox Honda. The team will wear jerseys designed by Jason Valenti of Sayre, Penn., who won the Griffins' annual jersey design contest held over the summer. All jerseys will be signed by the respective Griffins player and auctioned off following the game inside the Fifth Third Vault, with proceeds benefitting GVSU club roller hockey. Post-game activities include West Michigan's largest indoor fireworks display immediately following the game, and a J&H Family Stores post-game open skate.
You Again: The Griffins will take on the Lake Erie Monsters for the third time this month on Wednesday at 7 p.m., continuing a stretch that sees Grand Rapids play three consecutive road games (from Dec. 16-28) at Lake Erie. The teams have spit the first two contests, with Grand Rapids winning 3-2 on Dec. 16 due in part to two goals by Jamie Johnson. The following night, the Griffins were shut out by the Monsters, with AHL goals against average and save percentage leader Cedrick Desjardins making 37 saves in Lake Erie's 3-0 victory. The Griffins shut out the Monsters by the same score in the team's first meeting this season on Nov. 2 in Grand Rapids.
Easy As 1-2-3: Joakim Andersson is set to become the 123rd alumnus of the Griffins to suit up in an NHL game after being recalled by the Red Wings on Tuesday. Andersson sits fifth on the Griffins with 17 points (8-9—17) in 29 games. He is expected to make his NHL debut tonight when the Red Wings host the St. Louis Blues at 7:30 p.m. Andersson will be the sixth Griffins alumnus to make an NHL debut or return this season, joining Grand Rapids teammates Gustav Nyquist, Brendan Smith and Fabian Brunnstrom, as well as current Red Wing Chris Conner and former Griffin Mark Cullen.
Unwelcome Return: Many former Griffins dot the rosters of other AHL teams, but none has been more effective against his former club than Abbotsford's Krys Kolanos, who recorded 12 points (6-6—12) in 17 games with the Griffins in 2006-07. Kolanos made his season debut against the Griffins on Oct. 28, over 21 months since his last professional game on Jan. 16, 2010, notching three goals and one assist in a 5-1 Abbotsford win. Kolanos followed up his performance with a three-point effort in last Wednesday's 4-3 overtime victory for the Heat, giving him five goals and two assists in two games against Grand Rapids this season. The Griffins will see him two more times this season, on Jan. 6-7 when the team makes its annual trip to Abbotsford.
Pare's Place: Francis Pare continues to move up the Griffins' franchise leaderboard after recording an assist in last week's 4-3 loss to the Abbotsford Heat, tying him with Jeff Nelson for seventh place in Griffins history with 87 assists. One more assist will tie him for sixth place, where Glen Metropolit sits with 88. The assist also gave him 155 points as a Griffin, breaking a tie with former teammate Jamie Tardif for sixth place all-time. Pare's next goal will tie him with Matt Ellis for sixth place all-time in goals with 69.
Sidelined: The Griffins continue to be without the services of forward Chris Conner, who was the team's leading scorer when he was recalled by the Red Wings on Nov. 30. Conner is still third on the team in scoring, despite missing the Griffins' last nine games, with 23 points (7-16—23) in 20 games. The Livonia, Mich., native has recorded three points (1-2—3) in six games with Detroit, but he broke his hand on Dec. 13 at Pittsburgh. He is expected to return this week.
On the Mend: The Griffins got good news last week when defenseman Travis Ehrhardt returned to practice for the first time following a shoulder injury suffered on Oct. 16 at Rochester. He is expected to return to game action within the next two weeks. The Griffins are also expecting to receive Jan Mursak from Detroit on a conditioning stint this week. Mursak, who logged 86 points (39-47—86) in 184 games with Grand Rapids from 2008-11, hasn't seen game action this year after breaking his ankle in a Sept. 25 preseason game.
Milestone Watch: Joey MacDonald is one game shy of 200 as a Griffin and 400 as a pro…Jamie Johnson is one game shy of 600 as a pro…Greg Amadio is four games away from 200 as a Griffin…Brent Raedeke is five games from 100 as a Griffin.

.- 20th Century Fox has decided to move up the premier of "The Passion of the Christ" in Latin America due to pirating of the film, which has resulted in the spread of thousands of unauthorized, low-quality copies in the region.
Sources with Fox told reporters that the film will premier March 18 in Peru, Chile, Central America and Ecuador. A day after, on March 19, it will premier in Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Mexico and Uruguay.
Release dates in other countries will soon be announced.
"Mel Gibson always wanted a more simultaneous release. In light of the film's success, he has instructed Icon Productions to ask the responsible parties in Latin America to move the release up," a Fox source told the Chilean press.
However, in Mexico 20th Century Fox admitted that the change is because in some places like Mexico, Peru and Ecuador, pirated versions of the film on videodisc are being sold.
Juan Carlos Lazo, Marketing Director for Fox Mexico, said another reason is the high demand for tickets. "We want to combat pirating and we don't want them to benefit from it, in addition to the fact that the demand for tickets is incredible. It's the first time something like this has happened to us," he said.

18 Side Dishes to Serve Alongside a Juicy Steak
Once you've mastered the art of cooking the perfect steak in the oven, you can start to think about finding your perfect seasonal side dish. There are so many options available, but only certain sides are worthy of sharing your plate with a steak.
Start with this list of 18 mouth-watering options. We guarantee you'll find something that fits your taste.
1. Garlicky Roasted Broccoli
Something magical happens to broccoli when you roast it in the oven with plenty of garlic and then sprinkle it with lemon juice. It becomes one of our favorite side dishes of all time.
2. Stovetop Brussels Sprout Hash with Crispy Sage & Walnuts
When you get tired of always roasting your Brussels sprouts, this is the recipe to try. Sautéing gives the sprouts a completely different texture — plus, the addition of pancetta doesn't hurt either.
3. Modern Green Bean Casserole
Say goodbye to that can of condensed soup — this modern recipe replaces it with a roux flavored with sherry. And the fried onions? Sesame sticks from the bulk aisle make a fitting replacement.
4. How To Make Glazed Carrots
While steamed carrots may be a classic, glazed carrots are how you take your culinary skills up a notch. You can use any cut of carrot you like, and mix and match flavors in the glaze to your liking.
5. Braised Radishes with Shallots & Bacon
If you've only been eating your radishes raw, you've been missing out. Cooking radishes, whether through braising or roasting, mellows a bit of their bite and brings out a juicier flavor. Give it a try — you'll never look back.
6. Roasted Green Beans with Harissa
Roasting your green beans, instead of sautéing or steaming them, gives them a smokier flavor and a bit of a char. Plus, the harissa dressing adds a whole new dimension to a simple side dish.
7. Kale & Potato Gratin
Think of this as a lighter take on gratin, since it is filled with kale and doesn't goo too heavy on the milk and cheese. Just don't skip the breadcrumb topping — it really completes the dish.
8. Braised Fennel & Shallots
Braised vegetables have a leg up on other vegetable preparations. Cooking in a bit of liquid gives them a tender juiciness and makes sure they are fully creamy and tender.
9. Whipped Cauliflower with Crème Fraîche
Think mashed potatoes are the only creamy side dish that can accompany a steak? Think again. This decadent whipped cauliflower dish is only made better by adding in a tangy dollop of crème fraîche.
10. Potato, Squash & Goat Cheese Gratin
Thanks to the goat cheese in this gratin, you can skip the cream all together. And we say take it easy on yourself and skip the pretty layered patterns — a jumble of slices will taste just as good.
11. Roasted Rutabaga with Brown Butter
Don't discount the humble rutabaga. It has a lot going for it, and with this simple preparation it can become a go-to side dish that stands in for roasted potatoes — no problem.
12. Arugula, Pear & Blue Cheese Salad with Warm Vinaigrette
Don't serve a wimpy salad alongside your steak. Instead plate up this peppery salad filled with blue cheese crumbles and crisp pear slices. It holds its own without overpowering the rest of your meal.
13. Rosemary Roasted Potatoes
We're definitely meat-and-potatoes people when the menu includes a steak and these rosemary roasted potatoes. It's a classic meal that feels special enough for company, but can also be low-key enough for a random Wednesday.
14. Balsamic-Glazed Pearl Onions
Onions aren't normally a stand-alone side dish, but these small balsamic-glazed ones can do just that. They have the perfect, refreshing balance of sweet and tart that pairs well with steak.
15. Asparagus Ribbons
Roasted asparagus is great, but if you want a different way to enjoy the spring vegetable, consider this salad made of asparagus ribbons. Simply use your peeler or mandoline to slice fine ribbons, and then toss them with your favorite dressing.
16. New Potatoes with Herbs and Anchovy Butter
For anyone who likes the flavor of anchovies, this side dish is sure to be a winner. Bonus: You can easily pull this together, thanks to all the pantry-friendly ingredients.
17. Mushrooms on Toast
You can go fancy with this side dish or keep it simple, but however you decide to serve it, it's a guaranteed crowd-pleaser and a welcomed companion to a juicy steak.
18. How To Make Crispy Baked Sweet Potato Fries
Banish soggy sweet potato fries from your kitchen forever with this foolproof tutorial. The key to success is tossing your sweet potato wedges with cornstarch or potato starch before coating with oil and baking.

Program Manager and Associated Faculty
Education, Culture, and Society / International Educational Development
Graduate School of Education
University of Pennsylvania
Phone: 215-573-3947
Email: email@example.com
Dr. Posecznick has been Program Manager and a member of the associated faculty in Education, Culture and Society and International Educational Development since 2011. His professional expertise blends both a strong background in research and in academic policy and administration, providing him with a unique perspective on the culture of higher education and privilege.
Dr. Posecznick has published in Ethnography and Education, Policy Futures in Education, and coedited a special issue of Learning and Teaching, which examines the relationship between the university, academics, and the state. He has reviewed manuscripts for American Anthropologist, Ethos, Anthropology and Education Quarterly (where he is a member of the editorial board), and the American Anthropological Association's annual meeting. He was co-chair of the Council on Anthropology and Education's committee on post-secondary education for a number of years and was named a CAE Presidential Fellow in 2013. Dr. Posecznick has presented numerous papers at such venues as the American Anthropological Association's annual meeting, Penn's Ethnography in Education Research Forum, and Oxford's Ethnography and Education Conference. He has also written for the popular anthropology blog Savage Minds. Recently, Dr. Posecznick has been honored to have some hand in the Ethnography in Education Research Forum, housed in GSE's Center for Urban Ethnography.
Dr. Posecznick's expertise lies in cultural anthropology, qualitative methods, and higher education. He examines organizational culture, policy, and practice through ethnography, with particular emphasis on legitimacy, privilege, merit, gatekeeping, access, equity, and opportunity structures. This has also led him to explore the production of the neoliberal subject in post-secondary settings, as well as entrée into professional identities through post-secondary education. Dr. Posecznick's research has focused on non-traditional student retention in college, non-traditional engineering students coming into a professional engineering identity, and a close examination of college recruitment and admissions.
This most recent work on college admissions and recruitment, funded by the Wenner-Gren Foundation, demonstrates the challenges faced by a small urban college as it struggles to both compete in a tight educational marketplace and change students' lives. Dr. Posecznick draws on ethnographic methods to describe the delicate balance that many educational institutions must walk in the current economic climate: the line between empowering marginalized students and exploiting them. Selling Hope and College, the book based upon this work, will be released from Cornell University Press in Spring 2017.

Having the number of batches in HashPath could be potentially useful for a variety of reasons. For our research, we have added an nbatch variable in both HashPath and HashJoin. Having it in HashJoin is useful as we modified EXPLAIN to output the number of batches. There are costs in putting an nbatch variable in HashPath as the system may set this variable potentially hundreds/thousands of times during costing and does not (currently) use it until you convert the chosen HashPath to a plan. > I'd be more inclined to deal with the issue by trying to establish a > "safety margin" in the estimate of whether the hash will go multi-batch. > IOW we should disuse_physical_tlist if the hash is estimated to be close > to but still within one batch. Our experiments with large TPC-H 1GB joins show that it is almost always better to not use physical_tlists if the number of batches is > 1. There is a noticeable (approximately 5-15%) improvement when using physical_tlists for in-memory joins. For batches of size 2, it sometimes can go either way depending how many attributes are projected out of the outer relation. Using physical_tlists may be better even for batches of size 2 if most of the attributes of the outer relation are kept. For a larger number of batches, the extra I/O cost significantly dominates over the physical_tlist optimization. Performance of multi-batch joins may improve 50% or more by disabling the optimization. It is possible to create a "safety margin" by having ExecChooseHashTableSize() return the value inner_rel_bytes/hash_table_bytes which represents the fraction of the memory available that the inner relation is expected to consume. You can then make decisions based on that. However, this is only as good as the inner relation size estimate and especially for large queries, the estimate may be quite inaccurate. A more robust solution could examine the "width" of the path and the "width" of the relation combined with the number of batches to see if projecting early would be worth it. It may be best to keep it simple and just use number of batches > 1 as a criteria and instead focus on examining issues with inaccurate join size estimates. -- Dr. Ramon Lawrence Assistant Professor, Department of Computer Science, University of British Columbia Okanagan E-mail: ramon(dot)lawrence(at)ubc(dot)ca

AI'm going to be making a bunch of Penny's Butter Cookies for my niece's birthday party. How early can I make them ahead? I've generally made them a couple of days ahead of time but will be doing more detailed decorations, and I will also be making the cake, so wanted to get what I could done ahead of time. Thanks for any tips! Tracy
i've never made them but my idea for you -- wait i mean i've made butter cookies but not these in particular -- so my idea for you is to prepare the pans -- get the containers that will hold the baked cookies ready in advance too -- and get the cookies all cut out or piped out or whatever -- freeze -- if you don't have room in the freezer -- you can actually y'know freeze one layer then put them in a plastic bag repeat till all are frozen --
then all you have to do of course is bake them off -- easy peasy --
weeks in advance you can get them all ready to go and freeze them as cookie dough already cut out -- once frozen transfer to plastic bags -- get the baking pans ready and the boxes/platters you will be delivering them in prepared -- cover with plastic wrap if it will be a few weeks -- at the appointed time get all the icings ready to decorate them -- bake, decorate & away you go --
that will save a little time
AThanks K8. The party is in about a week so that might help make sure they are as fresh as possible. I'm a school counselor and heading back to work next week. I'm just having a hard time wrapping my head around the timing of everything. I was going to make the cakes and freeze them this weekend. How many days in advance do you think I can safely decorate the cookies?
Acouple days give or take depends on humidity and how you want your final product and how you are storing them-- what kind of decor made w/what kind of icing-- the earlier you bake/decorate them the softer they could get
AOk, I was thinking ABC...I know it doesn't harden completely but we just love the soft icing with the crunch of the cookie...now, I'm starting to slobber.
I may do a few fondant accents on top of the cookie. Like an initial, etc.
Since I was thinking ABC I would prob store the decorated cookies either on cookie sheets wrapped in Saran Wrap or a couple of cake boxes I have. Laying them individually not stacked.
I think I'm in for a few late nights...but my little niece is worth it. She's a cutie.
Aso have you had any leftover long enough previously to know how long it takes for the abc to soften the cookie?
AI don't remember it softening them but by a week stored in a tin can I think the icing started losing flavor. I think what I'm realizing is that I'm going to be up very late working on this party several days this week. She's picking them up Friday to package for favors for Saturday's party. So I think I will start icing Wednesday to give me enough time make corrections if needed and still work on the cake I'm doing. Thanks so much for your help. I think I will definitely cut out and freeze my shapes like you suggested. I really appreciate you helping me sort through this. I will PM you pics when all is said and done. Thanks again! Tracy
sounds like you're good to go -- i would err on the side of starting way early for your sake -- i think time management is much more important than we give it credit -- this project of course is for family and that's always special -- but y'know how on here it's preached to charge enough for your product because you don't want to work so hard and give it away -- well we also shouldn't sacrifice ourselves, our rest in particular for party food -- just as an encouragement for you --
anyhow i know it will be beautiful and i'm glad you have some good help where she will package the cookies --
can't wait for pictures
one other thing i do that i already hit upon is do the last things first -- like the fondant decor for the cookies can that be done in advance right now in fact? anything could be done in advance for the cake? abc icing could be made now and stored in the fridge -- fillings could be made now/soon* -- the ingredients for the cake could be measured out and mise en placed now -- cake pans prepped for the oven --
then it's fun at some point in the adventure/ordeal you 'meet up' with your earlier work and you can breathe a sigh of relief that you don't have to think so much anymore because you've stumbled onto the pathway that you earlier marked with bread crumbs -- find your way back to the light --
*careful with the baking powder--measure at the time you mix or package it air tight
AVery good ideas. I will definitely do these things. Thanks again!!! You've been great!!
AI know this is off topic but where can I find penny recipe? When I do a search all I do is find a link but when I click it, it says it doesn't exist
AHere is the link to the recipe that was posted in Texas Monthly. I pasted the recipe below just in case the link didn't work. You will notice it calls for tablespoons of vanilla. This is not a typo, and depending on your tastes you can actually add more vanilla if you like. You might want to do this if you need to omit the almond flavoring. I usually add more vanilla. She also says you don't have to chill. Maybe it's just because I'm in South Carolina, but when I don't chill I end up adding more flour. So, I think it's just a preference thing. I've read forums on here that debate if this is sugar cookie or butter cookie. I use it as a sugar cookie, and it sounds like several other CCers do as well. Enjoy! -Tracy
BUTTER COOKIE DOUGH 1 cup salted butter 1 cup granulated sugar 1 large egg 2 tablespoons whipping cream 2 tablespoons vanilla extract 1 teaspoon almond extract 3 cups unbleached flour 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a mixer combine butter and sugar. Add egg, cream, vanilla, and almond extract all at once and thoroughly blend. In a separate bowl stir together flour and baking powder. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and blend. Roll out to a thickness of about 1/4 inch and cut with a cookie cutter. Bake on a greased cookie sheet 8 to 12 minutes and cool on a rack. Makes about 3 dozen cookies. (Dough does not need to be chilled before using.)
BASIC GLAZE 1 tablespoon light corn syrup, such as Karo 1/4 teaspoon almond, orange, or lemon extract 3 cups powdered sugar
Using a mixer, dissolve syrup and extract in 1/4 cup warm water. Add sugar and beat on low speed until smooth.
ROYAL FROSTING 3 large to extra-large egg whites 3 1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar (optional) commercial paste colors (available at hobby shops or cake-decorating supply stores) decorative stencils (available at hobby shops)
Using a mixer, beat first 3 ingredients on low speed until mixture thickens. Then beat on high until it forms stiff peaks and the shine dulls to a sheen, 7 to 10 minutes. Tint to desired color(s), using about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon per half cup of frosting. Royal frosting crusts over quickly, so cover bowl or pastry bag with a damp cloth when not actively working.)
To decorate using a stencil, put about 1/4 teaspoon of royal frosting on tip of a small cake spatula, ideally an offset spatula (with the blade bent so it is lower than the handle, like a trowel). Hold stencil in place on a cooled, dry cookie. In a single stroke, swipe a thin layer of frosting across it and carefully lift stencil. Dries in an hour, longer if weather is humid.

just had a nice dinner the other day with a friend from tunis and another one from peru ( bith of them cooked, i ate!). so we started debateing about the countries we're from, people, habbits.
i promised jam-arch i'll write about traveling here. Well, i suppose you have the same chances of getting robbed in here, as in other EU countries. Ro is pretty safe from that point of view (i can say this after what i heard about lima). as long as you don't put your wallet in a easily reachable place, there is no problem.
you can get here with by air, bus, train and even sea (it depends where u're coming from). with a little luck there will always be a person that speaks english when u get stuck .
In certain areas, for example moldavia (monasteries XVI century) or maramures (wooden churces) people are used to tourists and always helpful. in the cities foreigners are a usual thing. it just depends on what u're interested in.
between 14-21 april there is the biggest student manifestation in town: 'studentfest', organized by students from different universities (it has different sections: art, arch, theatre, dance, music, literature), includes conferences, installations, happenings, workshops, and of course, parties. i can't promise it is a a big deal, but if u're insterested, u're welcome. we even take care of your accomodation and everything. here's the link , though the english version doesn't work.
i got to run to school. if any of you have any intentions to come around, just say so and i could give you some tipps.

1913 Corry HS Yearbook - The Owl - Activities
Contributed by Teresa Hughes
This is a series of pages being presented based on scanned images from the June 1913 Corry Owl, the yearbook for Corry High School. This feature covers pages 28 to 39, Activities and Miscellaneous. The images have been scanned by Bill Klauk from the yearbook that was on loan from Teresa and Jack Hughes in March 2003. Unfortunately, these web page were never created at that time, except for a small number of pages. The yearbook was originally owned by the late Arthur Schaub. Art was Teresa's father-in-law's guardian. Art had a Dutch Boy paint and wall paper store on Center street in Corry until the early 1970s. In the summer of 1937 Art visited the Elmwood Home for Boys and met Charles Francis Hughes. Art became Chuck's guardian and Chuck moved to Art's home in Corry. While attending Corry High School, Chuck meet Clarice Capwell, daughter of Alice Bennink and Boyd Capwell. They were married in 1945 and in 1947 Teresa's husband Jack Hughes was born. Anyone having any comments or questions on the material presented should contact Teresa Hughes directly.
The Girls' Basketball team had a good season, too. With Bess Drought as
manager, a good schedule was arranged, and played off very well. Among the
girls who participated in the games were Bess and Araline Drought, Marie
Kepple, Myrna Reynolds, Thelma O'Neil, Margaret Alexander, Evah Loveland, Fern
Blatchley and Lillian Murray. Then the Sophomore girls played the All-High
School team in a close contest and defeated them.

This issue ends the exchange department for the season of 1912-13. On the
whole, we have been very successful. We have been aided greatly by the
criticisms of other papers, and hope the attempt to better some of our
exchanges has not been in vain.
The organization of the T. N. E. Club was an inspiration. Ten fellows got
together and said, "Let there be a club," and a club there was. Later it was
desired to limit the membership to C. H. S. men.

Page 28 transcription:
With the reorganization of the school in the Fall of 1912, came football enthusiasm. The school had not had a football team for two years, so it was decided to play inter-class games and not have a C. H. S. team until the following Fall. And so, many interclass battles were waged desperately on the school gridiron.
But soon football gave place to the basketball schedule arranged by Manager Bosworth. Captain Babbitt, assisted by Prof. Davie, our coach, had out door practice on the field for a couple of weeks before the indoor practice started. Then, when the team began practicing at the Armory, every man played a star game. And the team was then picked out. Babbitt, Jourdet, Paulson, Wellman, Scott and Mckinney.
The Thanksgiving night rolled around with Silver Creek as Corry's opponent. Corry, in a fierce game, defeated Silver Creek and soon afterwards Kane and Masten Park of Buffalo shared Silver Creek's fate. All the rest of the season the Corry boys played an excellent game under the circumstances, and while they began losing a few, still they ended the season very creditably. Jourdet, Corry's star forward, was elected captain of next year's team and awarded the silver cup for being the best player for C. H. S.
And then came baseball. Under Capt. Hill's guidance, the team began practice and gradually the material assumed definite shape. But just when all looked well, trouble started. Now all the year in athletics it has been decreed by the authorities that a player to be eligible, must have a grade of at least 75 in three studies and deportment. But Babbitt and Jourdet had not the necessary qualifications for a game at Warren. Nor had permission yet been given to use Hopkins, a 9th grade player. So when Manager Carrier used these three men, there was trouble following, and finally the Board of Education decided that C. H. S. athletics were not recognized, and that there was no team officially representing Corry High School. So the team reorganized as the Crescent High Stars and it has proceeded to play as much of its schedule as possible.
Then when the City League was organized, the Crescent High Stars entered the League with eighteen players. The league is sure to be a success and the H. S. team ought to win. With good support and Hill and "Lefty" Wellman to do the twirling, the team certainly ought to win the cup offered by Mr. DeRosay to the best nine. So best wishes and all luck to the C. H. S. team — the Crescent High Stars.

The T. H. B. Club was organized June 26th, 1912, at the home of Josephine

Easter week, 1912, six girls were entertained at the home of Ethel
Whittlesey and formed a club known as the A. B. C.
The M. S. Club was organized by seven girls April 17, 1913, at the home of
Araline Drought. The club meets on Saturday after noon and evening and the
hostess serves a six o clock dinner.
Starting with six members in 1910 the T. E. D. Club is one of the oldest of
the many clubs whose members are now mostly in High School. Picnics are the
chief entertainment, and when the club feels in the mood, the eight T. E. D's
take their picnic baskets, hammocks, old clothes and Keppel's auto and make
their way to the picnic grounds or to the annual camp on Findley Lake.

The N. I. T. Club was organized August 4, 1910, with fourteen members. The object of the club is to have a good time and gossip and it is known that the latter, especially, is indulged in freely. The club is noted for the fine dances which it often holds and which are some of the most important events of the social season.
In the Hallowe'en parade of 1911, the girls received a beautiful silver cup for their float "The Damm Family". This was presented to the High School by Miss Elizabeth Lyons and now adorns the case in the hall.
Last year the girls spent ten days in camp at Sherman's Bay on Chautauqua Lake, and from all reports, an exceptionally good time was enjoyed. Miss McKinney and Miss Breene acted as chaperons.
The members of the club are: Cora Heywang, Marion Carey, Emily Weaver, Dorothy Wilcox, Lucile Murray, Fannie Weiss, Helen Hoenes, Bess Drought, Elizabeth Lyons, Esther Vaughan, Julia Naylor, Alta Young, Ava Mackres, Louise Whittlesey, Ruth Calkins.
The Nutty Seven is an organization of the Senior boys. This club meets semi
occasionally. It was founded in Room 320, Winston Hotel, Washington, D. C., by
Merrill Hammond. The members are:
Howard Bosworth. . . . Booker T. Washington.
Orval St. Pierre . . . . Teddy Roosevelt.

The M. P. Club, commonly known as "Mush Party" is perhaps the youngest, though the most exclusive of any of the High School Clubs. The existence of this club first came to light this winter when a dance was given by them. Since then little has been heard of the club, and we would fear that it no longer existed if we did not see evidence of its existence every day.
