While some hoped that the Greenfield School Board would decide on Monday whether to have Greenfield High School start later and three other schools start earlier, the board instead called for updated cost estimates on changing the times for its Feb. 11 meeting.
The board wants to know if the $210,000 cost that was estimated in 2011 for the high school to start 35 minutes later and two elementary schools and the middle school to start earlier would still be valid for the 2013-14 school year. Cost information also will be gathered on the high school starting 30 minutes later, but leaving the other school start times alone.
About six years ago, the high school went to a 7:10 a.m. start time to save money. Parents asked the board to reconsider its decision and an ad hoc committee was formed. It eventually recommended a later high school start time and adjusting start times in some other schools. The committee said educational research shows that high school students do better if school starts later and that elementary students do better if school starts earlier.
The board turned the recommendations down mainly because of the $210,000 cost. But renewed calls for a later high school start time came because of disappointment that the high school students didn't do better on the state's new academic testing program. If the students would do better with a later start, the expenditure is justified, some said.

Once you star in a Star Wars film, you're forever part of the legacy, meaning fans everywhere will instantly know who you are…or not. Recently, Star Wars prequels actress Natalie Portman was faced with a fan who knew her…or at least Amidala.
The 27-year-old star was rudely interrupted while shopping for groceries in LA, when a man shouted after recognizing her as the sci-fi trilogy star, but failed to remember her name.
"No one had noticed Natalie because she was dressed in a hoodie and was wearing sunglasses," the Daily Express quoted an eyewitness as saying.
"But that changed when this busker started yelling, 'It's that girl from Star Wars. She played Queen Amidala. What is her name?'"
"Natalie promptly grabbed her radishes and scarpered," the witness added.

Oakland >Food & Dining > Spettro
3355 Lakeshore Ave, Oakland, CA | Directions 9461037.811209 -122.243280
Daily 5-10
Neighborhoods: Lakeshore
Pretty Good – Good atmosphere and food. I did see people waiting to be seated for a bit. The steak and the seafood linguine were both good.
Cheap and easy! – We love this casual neighborhood restaurant. The food isn't amazing, but it's good and it's so cheap with the free corkage - who cares? It's a great alternative to cooking at home and you can find something for everyone. We're always happy to go and even take people there for a casual experience! AND they take reservations, which is rare. We made a dinner reservation for 10, were seated on time and only spent $40 a couple!
Unique and Tasty Nouveau Italian Cuisine – The food is exceptional. They have some great salads, and offer them all in small, medium, and large (huge!). The pizzas are all quite tasty, and the pasta dishes are creative. The theme of the menu is hard to classify. Nouveau Italian? Italian-California-Fusion?
On a budget, I often go with my wife and share a wonderful coconut milk green-curry mussel appetizer and a large boo-berry salad with fresh blueberries, caramelized walnuts, and chevre. The whole meal comes out to less than $20 and is quite satisfying. They don't charge for corkage, so we can bring our own bottle of wine.
This is one of those places where I send my friends from out of town to experience affordable yet memorable Bay Area dining. You definitely wouldn't find this kind of restaurant anywhere else.
Surprise!!!! – I must say when my girlfrind convinced me to dine at this place I was a little deterred. The wait was awful for a table(my fault no reservation) ; ( . The service was not too comforting ; ( . The food on the other hand was excellent. Paella with risotto, of the 'hiznook'! All pizzas, in your face like "BAM!"-- ala lagasse Pork carnitas and salsa verde, Tender and .....(stomach is growling, wants more) if the food was bad I would have complained, but I was satisfied.
Neighborhood Jewel – Spettros is a great place to take a date. Get a booth if you can and bring your own wine. Sure the line is sometimes long (esp. weekends), but there is something about the atmosphere that makes it worthwhile. The food is quite decent. You can get salads, pizzas, pasta, seafood, and great desserts.
Yuck! – A 15 minute wait outside for Italian Food. I'm Italian and this restaurant does not serve any staples of normal Italian food.
Instead, it's a lame attempt at Fusion, i.e. pinenuts and jalapeno peppers on your pizza (blech!).
The food was bland, service was decent, prices were high for small portions, and the interior is very cramped.
what do we do with the leftovers? – I've lived in Spettro's neighborhood for almost a year. I can't count the times I've eaten there. It used to be my favorite restaurant. Over the past year I've noticed a couple of things: On Monday their specials say salmon, Tuesday same thing, by Friday they still use salmon just in a different form. When you walk past their specials every day it becomes very clear that Spettro recycles their ingredients over and over. The result is neither fresh nor creative. They try hard but fail 80% of the time.

We ate in both the Circular dining room and the Fountain Cafe and found the price and quality of food to be excellent. The grounds of the hotel are breathtaking. There are reflection pools on the back end of the hotel that are really something to look at. We went to the indoor pool and the spa, which was a bit pricey but worth it. (I had the chocolate fondue wrap!) The stores in the hotel were a bit expensive, again--this is a high-class hotel, so it was expected. I found all sorts of visitors here: young families, gay couples, and older married types. Again, I cannot comment enough on the kindness and professionalism of the Hotel Hershey staff.

Comments about Toronto 3-Piece Hardside Spinner Luggage Set:
I just used the larger suitcase for a trip to Costa Rica. The piece took quite a beating due to unexpected circumstances and held up quite well...just a few scratches and no real damage. The piece was very easy to maneuver through the airports I was in due to the 4 rotating wheels. I'm so glad I bought the set in time for my trip.

text: I have a 13 year old SquareD pumptrol type FSG2 pressure switch which recently started exceeding the cut out setting. I believe it was previously set at 40/60. Last night I discovered water leaking from the check valve. It appears that the switch isn't recognizing the increase in pressure properly and is now shutting off around 80+ psi. It does however cut in properly at 40 psi. I've tried adjusting the differential with little to no success. From what I've read here, it seems that either it's time to replace the switch or possibly the inlet to the switch may be clogged. My well guy can't come until next week and I'd rather not wait. So instead of calling around for other people, I'm considering doing it myself. For those who have replaced a switch before, on a scale of 1 to 10 (with one being easy) how would you rate this job? I consider myself pretty handy and have done other plumbing (no soldering skills though) and electrical projects. I'd appreciate any advice or information on things to watch out for. Thanks in advance.

Harden Clutches Up, Dickie and Coan Power Saints Past Lander
Contact Joey Daniels, email@example.com
GREENWOOD, SC – North Georgia used dominating pitching and a clutch hit to sweep Lander on Sunday, 3-1 and 2-1 to help boost their win streak at Doug Spears Field.
Game: 1 North Georgia 3 Lander 1
Karlie Gillam got the Saints (41-7, 15-3 PBC) off on the right track right away in the first inning, when she hit a two-run home run over the centerfield wall.
Gillam would finish 1-for-3 with the two RBI's and a run scored, pushing her team-high batting average to .341.
That was all the scoring that Melissa Dickie (16-0) would need, as she remained perfect on the season and now has her self right in the running for freshman of the year.
Dickie threw her 11th complete game en route to picking up yet another win. She finished the game with no earned runs and six hits allowed, dropping her ERA to a team-best 1.19.
Also coming through with hits were Hilary Cox, Sarah Johnson, Kayla Minger and Tiffanie Burns.
Pilar Harden would score on the home run ball by Gillam, while Johnson would score in the seventh inning to give the Saints some insurance. Harden walked three times in the game.
Despite being outhit by Lander (26-26, 4-16 PBC) 6-5, Dickie and her strong defense limited the host Bearcats to just one extra-base hit.
Game 2: North Georgia 2 Lander 1 (8 innings)
The drama picked up in the second game of the doubleheader, as all three seniors would play in intricate part in the win.
With two outs in the seventh inning and the No. 13-ranked Saints trailing a struggling Lander team in the Peach Belt Conference this season, the senior class would have none of it.
After Callie Fernandez drew a key hit by pitch with two down, Katie Block came on to pinch run, accounting for the tying run.
Harden stepped up to the plate, drew a full count, then roped the game-tying RBI double to rightcenter, allowing Block to slide head first into home plate to tie the game at one a piece.
Harden has been arguably the hottest hitter for the Saints as of late, boosting her average to .322 over the past few weeks. She finished 2-for-3 with a walk and the ever-important RBI.
Not to go unnoticed was the return of Jessica Coan (22-6) to the rotation. The senior looked as if she hadn't missed a beat, throwing eight strong innings allowing just one earned run.
She struck out nine batters and only surrendered three hits, looking untouchable once again.
Hilary Cox would have a say as well in this outcome, as she went 2-for-4 at the plate and played an outstanding game defensively.
The three seniors made sure the Saints would not have a slip up on the road, and would be sure to keep their hopes of a fourth straight PBC crown alive.
North Georgia scored the go-ahead run in the eighth inning, when Katherine Martin singled to bring in Taylor Anne Merrit, who was brough on to pinch run for Cox.
The Saints would leave runners stranded failing to extend the lead, but Coan only needed one.
The winning continues for coach Davenport's Saints, as they have now won 11 in a row including five consecutive PBC conference sweeps.
The final games of the 2012 season are this Thursday when North Georgia will host Francis Marion. The games are scheduled for 6:00 and 8:00 PM.
The Peach Belt Conference Tournament will be this coming weekend in Columbus, Georgia. The Saints have locked up the No. 2 seed in the tournament, with an outside shot at the No. 1 overall seed.

The curriculum of Thomas Goode Jones School of Law is designed to provide instruction in the substantive law, values, skills (including legal analysis and reasoning, legal research, problem solving and oral communication), substantial legal writing instruction, and a clinical experience. Also included in the curriculum is instruction in the rules of professional conduct. Elective courses are provided as enrichment opportunities to allow some choice on the part of the student in enlarging his or her knowledge of particular areas of law.
During the second or third year, each student completes a rigorous writing requirement and a practical skills course.
The rigorous writing requirement may be satisfied by writing a paper or other document in connection with a seminar (or other upper-level course), by writing an article or comment for the Law Review by a member of the Law Review staff or board, by writing an "argument" portion of a brief for an interscholastic moot court competition if such portion was individually researched and written by the student and approved by the faculty advisor for the student's moot court, or by writing a directed research paper under the supervision of a full-time faculty member.
The practical skills course requirement may be satisfied by any of the following courses: Appellate Advocacy, Arbitration, Dispute Resolution Processes, Interviewing and Counseling or Negotiation, Legal Drafting, Mediation, Moot Court, Pre-trial Practice and Trial Advocacy.
Our goal is to equip students for their role in the institutions of justice. We provide our students with a foundation of legal knowledge and skills upon which they can build lives of service within the legal profession.

Those are pretty cool. I knew about this a while ago, so it's good to hear some samples.
I was just about to make the same post! It's too cute!! I'm totally getting this for my 4yr old. I think he'd like it since he LOVES Weezer's music and loves to play his keyboard and little piano.

You don't follow my Twitter, I lead yours.
I've been having a blast playing with the Hornets. Austin is unstoppable...
Two areas I think 2K screwed Anthony Davis in are his blocks rating listed at 83 (which makes Robin Lopez the best shot blocker on the team) and his vertical jump which is a 68.
I also find it extremely hard to get a shot off with Eric Gordon due to him not having a high release point on his jump shot. 95% of the time I have to hop step away from the defender to get his shot off.
Dropped like 24 points(high percentage) and 4 assists with Rivers. It feels as if he's a star or volume scorer lol. Playing against nuggets. 75-73
I play my career.. got drafted to hornets and we actually beat the spurs 102-100 and hornets looks so good.
Gordon gets his shot blocked a lot when I play with him too.
Austin is very quick and finishes with authority.
I mainly play online...
I hadent gotten my shot blocked once with Gordon which is surprising, but Rivers is much more fun to play w. Davis is a moster, 3 blocks the first game.
Guys to watch out for (internet tough guys):
Guys that know you are personally a coward despite never meeting you or holding a real conversation with you (psychic or stalker):
I am trying to turn the pistons into contenders as a SG/PG
I'm going to restart MyCareer until the Hornets take me. I play as a PG, so my guy should fit fairly well.
Yep, I got drafted by the blazers at 6 and they took lillard at 6 as well? lol
I think I'm gonna go SF instead of SG. As a scoring SG, you pretty much only get points. I want to be able to be a statsheet stuffer, not just a scorer.
I went defensive PF. My guy is annoyingly bad at scoring...
Mod over at reddit.com/r/NOLAPelicans
I made an athletic Center. He's so much faster than any other Center you can create. Going with the strategy of "growing into my body" by putting points into physical skills (verticle Speed Quickness etc), then i'll work on things like refining my skills.
"All around" players are pretty good but dont have the physical tools i wanted or what i think you need to be elite in the nba.
So, after starting on All star, getting hammered by the the spurs, almost beating the Jazz; I've changed my lineup to:
1. Vasquez
2. Gordon
3. Aminu
4. Davis
5. Smith
6th man - Rivers
What i've noticed is Anderson gets a ton of open 3s this way.

Betsey Johnson - New York Spring 2010
View Gallery
(NEW YORK) Oh. My. Tulle. Betsey Johnson punked out Kay Thompson's Eloise during her presentation at The Plaza Hotel, delivering her signature fare of rose and leopard print, kaleidoscopic colors and tulle bows that rivaled Marc's in size. Eat your heart out, Lisa Frank. Models jammed out to rock n' roll tunes along with Johnson on stage; it's always refreshing to see models loosen up a bit and enjoy themselves. Betsey took the microphone and announced, "I hope everyone had fun, because really, all I wanted to do was have a good time." Eloise served as a prefect muse for the designer, as is seems Johnson is also simply a rambunctious six-year old who can rock a pair of suspenders.

Lady Saints Think Pink, Avoid Hurricane Upset
DAHLONEGA, GA – North Georgia pulled away
late to claim back-to-back wins for the third time this season,
defeating Georgia Southwestern 70-57 Monday evening in Memorial
Hall in Peach Belt Conference action.
The Lady Saints (7-17, 4-13 PBC) hosted the Hurricanes (7-17, 2-15 PBC) as part of the Women's Basketball Coaches Association's Pink Zone campaign to benefit breast cancer Awareness.
North Georgia was led once again by the steller performance of Syretha Marble who turned in another double-double with 25 points and 10 rebounds in 39 minutes of action. The senior was 8-15 from the field and 9-12 from the free throw line. Danielle Seeley was the only other player to score in double figures for the Lady Saints, finishing with 11 points and four assists.
Brittany Reynolds paced Georgia Southwestern with 17 points and a game-high 16 rebounds, while Whitley Wiltz chipped in 12 points, seven rebounds, and three assists.
The Hurricanes took the lead in the second half at the 16:11 mark, using a three-pointer from Brandi Burris to take a 37-35 lead, but North Georgia answered with buckets from Sarah Stinson and Whitney Randolph to take the lead for good at 39-27.
The Lady Saints led by as many as 14 points on a pair of free throw by Seeley with 40 seconds remaining before coming away with the 13-point victory.
North Georgia shot 41.8 percent from the field, while GSW was 36.2 percent from the floor. Both teams were unable to knock down long ball, combining to make just four three-pointers in the contest.
North Georgia continues its marathon PBC schedule on Wednesday evening, hosting in-state rival Clayton State at 5:30 p.m. for Spirit Night 2009.

why NOT go back to a one-turn stagger for the 400 ? It would turn track's worse race for the fans into one of the best !
Does anyone disagree that in watching a 400, you barely know what's happening until they come off the last turn ? Crummy for the fans watching. Let 'em fight for position down the backstretch, then fan out coming for home. What a great race to watch. And you might even get FASTER times as they'll sure haul *** down that backstretch to have the pole going into the turn.
Comments ?
Is this such a bad idea ?

Early life[edit]
Born in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, Atwood is the second of three children[6] of Margaret Dorothy (née Killam), a former dietitian and nutritionist from Woodville, Nova Scotia[7] and Carl Edmund Atwood, an entomologist.[8] Due to her father's ongoing research in forest entomology, Atwood spent much of her childhood in the backwoods of Northern Quebec and traveling back and forth between Ottawa, Sault Ste. Marie, and Toronto. She did not attend school full-time until she was in grade 8. She became a voracious reader of literature, Dell pocketbook mysteries, Grimm's Fairy Tales, Canadian animal stories, and comic books. She attended Leaside High School in Leaside, Toronto, and graduated in 1957.[8] Atwood began writing at the age of six.
She realized she wanted to write professionally when she was 16. In 1957, she began studying at Victoria College in the University of Toronto, where she published poems and articles in Acta Victoriana, the college literary journal.[9] Her professors included Jay Macpherson and Northrop Frye. She graduated in 1961 with a Bachelor of Arts in English (honours) and a minor in philosophy and French.[8]
In late 1961, after winning the E.J. Pratt Medal for her privately printed book of poems, Double Persephone, she began graduate studies at Harvard's Radcliffe College with a Woodrow Wilson fellowship. She obtained a master's degree (MA) from Radcliffe in 1962 and pursued further graduate studies at Harvard University for two years but did not finish her dissertation, "The English Metaphysical Romance." She has taught at the University of British Columbia (1965), Sir George Williams University in Montreal (1967–68), the University of Alberta (1969–70), York University in Toronto (1971–72), the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa (1985), where she was visiting M.F.A. Chair, and New York University, where she was Berg Professor of English.
In June 2011, Atwood was conferred with an honorary degree of Doctor of Literature (honoris causa) from the National University of Ireland, Galway. On November 16, 2012, Atwood received an honorary degree from the Royal Military College of Canada. She also holds honorary degrees from several other Canadian universities, as well as Oxford University, Cambridge University, and the Sorbonne.
Personal life[edit]
In 1968, Atwood married Jim Polk; they were divorced in 1973.[10] She formed a relationship with fellow novelist Graeme Gibson soon after and moved to a farm near Alliston, Ontario, north of Toronto, where their daughter Eleanor Jess Atwood Gibson was born in 1976.[11] The family returned to Toronto in 1980.
Regarding her religion, Atwood was a noted humanist, and in 1987 she was named Humanist of the Year by the American Humanist Association.[12]
Critical reception[edit]
The Economist called her a "scintillating wordsmith" and an "expert literary critic", but commented that her logic does not match her prose in Payback: Debt and the Shadow Side of Wealth,[13] a book which commences with the conception of debt and its kinship with justice. Atwood claims that this concept is ingrained in the human psyche, that it is apparent in early historical peoples, who associated their understanding of debt with that of justice, ideas that are typically exemplified by a female deity. Atwood holds that, with the rise of Ancient Greece, and especially the installation of the court system detailed in Aeschylus' Oresteia, this deity has been replaced by a more thorough conception of debt.
In 1984, she was the subject of a documentary film by Michael Rubbo, Margaret Atwood: Once in August.[14][15] In 2003, Shaftesbury Films produced an anthology series, The Atwood Stories, which dramatized six of Atwood's short stories.
Atwood and science fiction[edit]
The Handmaid's Tale received the first Arthur C. Clarke Award in 1987. The award is given for the best science fiction novel that was first published in the United Kingdom during the previous year. It was also nominated for the 1986 Nebula Award, and the 1987 Prometheus Award, both science fiction awards.
Atwood has resisted the suggestion that The Handmaid's Tale and Oryx and Crake are science fiction, suggesting to The Guardian that they are speculative fiction instead: "Science fiction has monsters and spaceships; speculative fiction could really happen."[11] She told the Book of the Month Club: "Oryx and Crake is a speculative fiction, not a science fiction proper. It contains no intergalactic space travel, no teleportation, no Martians."[16] On BBC Breakfast she explained that science fiction, as opposed to what she herself wrote, was "talking squids in outer space." The latter phrase particularly rankled advocates of science fiction and frequently recurs when her writing is discussed.[16]
Atwood has since said that she does at times write social science fiction and that Handmaid's Tale and Oryx and Crake can be designated as such. She clarified her meaning on the difference between speculative and science fiction, admitting that others use the terms interchangeably: "For me, the science fiction label belongs on books with things in them that we can't yet do.... speculative fiction means a work that employs the means already to hand and that takes place on Planet Earth." She said that science fiction narratives give a writer the ability to explore themes in ways that realistic fiction cannot.[17]
Atwood and feminism[edit]
Atwood, who was surrounded by the intellectual dialogue of the female faculty members at Victoria College at University of Toronto, often portrays female characters dominated by patriarchy in her novels.[18] Still, Atwood denies that The Edible Woman, for example, published in 1969 and coinciding with the early second wave of the feminist movement, is feminist and claims that she wrote it four years before the movement. Atwood believes that the feminist label can only be applied to writers who consciously work within the framework of the feminist movement.[19]
Contribution to the theorizing of Canadian identity[edit]
Atwood's contributions to the theorizing of Canadian identity have garnered attention both in Canada and internationally. Her principal work of literary criticism, Survival: A Thematic Guide to Canadian Literature, is considered outdated in Canada but remains the standard introduction to Canadian literature in Canadian Studies programs internationally.[20] In Survival, Atwood postulates that Canadian literature, and by extension Canadian identity, is characterized by the symbol of survival.[21] This symbol is expressed in the omnipresent use of "victim positions" in Canadian literature. These positions represent a scale of self-consciousness and self-actualization for the victim in the "victor/victim" relationship.[22] The "victor" in these scenarios may be other humans, nature, the wilderness or other external and internal factors which oppress the victim.[22] Atwood's Survival bears the influence of Northrop Frye's theory of garrison mentality; Atwood instrumentalizes Frye's concept to a critical tool.[23] More recently, Atwood has continued her exploration of the implications of Canadian literary themes for Canadian identity in lectures such as Strange Things: The Malevolent North in Canadian Literature (1995).
Atwood's contribution to the theorizing of Canada is not limited to her non-fiction works. Several of her works, including The Journals of Susanna Moodie, Alias Grace, The Blind Assassin and Surfacing, are examples of what postmodern literary theorist Linda Hutcheon calls "Historiographic Metafiction".[24] In such works, Atwood explicitly explores the relation of history and narrative and the processes of creating history.
Ultimately, according to her theories in works such as Survival and her exploration of similar themes in her fiction, Atwood considers Canadian literature as the expression of Canadian identity. According to this literature, Canadian identity has been defined by a fear of nature, by settler history and by unquestioned adherence to the community.
Atwood and animals[edit]
Margaret Atwood has repeatedly made observations about our relationships to animals in her works. In Surfacing, one character remarks about eating animals: "The animals die that we may live, they are substitute people...And we eat them, out of cans or otherwise; we are eaters of death, dead Christ-flesh resurrecting inside us, granting us life." Some characters in her books link sexual oppression to meat-eating and consequently give up meat-eating. In The Edible Woman, Atwood's character Marian identifies with hunted animals and cries after hearing her fiancé's experience of hunting and eviscerating a rabbit. Marian stops eating meat but then later returns to it.[25]
In Cat's Eye, the narrator recognizes the similarity between a turkey and a baby. She looks at "the turkey, which resembles a trussed, headless baby. It has thrown off its disguise as a meal and has revealed itself to me for what it is, a large dead bird." In Atwood's Surfacing, a dead heron represents purposeless killing and prompts thoughts about other senseless deaths.[25]
Chamber opera[edit]
In March 2008 Atwood announced that she had accepted her first chamber opera commission. Pauline will be on the subject of Pauline Johnson, a writer and Canadian artist long a subject of fascination to Atwood.[26] It will star Rose-Ellen Nichols, with music by Tobin Stokes, and be produced by City Opera of Vancouver.[26] Pauline will be set in Vancouver, British Columbia, in March 1913, in the last week of Johnson's life. "Pauline" has been announced for premiere on 23 May 2014, at the York Theatre in Vancouver.[27]
Political involvement[edit]
Although Atwood's politics are commonly described as being left-wing, she has indicated in interviews that she considers herself a Red Tory in the historical sense of the term.[28] Atwood and her partner Graeme Gibson are members of the Green Party of Canada (GPC) and strong supporters of GPC leader Elizabeth May. Atwood has strong views on environmental issues, and she and her partner are the joint honorary presidents of the Rare Bird Club within BirdLife International. She has been chair of the Writers' Union of Canada and president of PEN Canada, and is currently a vice president of PEN International. In the 2008 federal election she attended a rally for the Bloc Québécois, a Quebec separatist party, because of her support for their position on the arts, and stated that she would vote for the party if she lived in Quebec.[29] In a Globe and Mail editorial, she urged Canadians to vote for any other party to stop a Conservative majority.[30]
During the debate in 1987 over a free trade agreement between Canada and the United States, Atwood spoke out against the deal, and wrote an essay opposing the agreement.[31]
Atwood celebrated her 70th birthday at a gala dinner at Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ontario, marking the final stop of her international tour to promote The Year of the Flood. She stated that she had chosen to attend the event because the city has been home to one of Canada's most ambitious environmental reclamation programs: "When people ask if there's hope (for the environment), I say, if Sudbury can do it, so can you. Having been a symbol of desolation, it's become a symbol of hope."[32]
Atwood's reputed left wing attitudes may have been changing in recent times. Despite calls for a boycott by Gazan students, Atwood visited Israel and accepted the $1,000,000 Dan David Prize along with Indian author Amitav Ghosh at Tel Aviv University in May 2010.[33] Atwood commented that "we don't do cultural boycotts."[34] She is a supporter of convicted felon Conrad Black in his attempts to remain a member of the Order of Canada.[35]
In the Wake of the Flood, a documentary film by Canadian director Ron Mann released in October 2010, followed Atwood on the unusual book tour for her novel The Year of the Flood. During this innovative book tour, Atwood created a theatrical version of her novel, with performers borrowed from the local areas she was visiting. The documentary is described as "a fly-on-the-wall film vérité."[36]
Since February 2013, Atwood made it clear via Twitter that she strongly opposed the University of Toronto putting in an artificial turf field and hinted that she might write the university out of her will if it proceeded with the plan. This was not the first time she had openly challenged the university.[37]

Leading by 15 in the first half, Rutgers allowed the Colonials to chip away and take a second-half lead. When the Scarlet Knights needed it most, however, they made the necessary free throws to come out on top.
"We definitely would have lost this game last year," said senior captain Dane Miller. "They would have went on a run, we would have turned the ball over allowing them to score."
Sophomore guard Elijah Carter led Rutgers in scoring with 19, but continued to struggle from outside going 1-for-7. Sophomore Kadeem Jack scored a career-high 12 points of the bench and led the team with six rebound.
Solid defense proved the difference-maker down the stretch. Rutgers forced 23 turnovers, including two in the final minute.
"This team has trouble with pressure," said head coach Mike Rice. "So forcing 23 turnovers was the difference in this game because we certainly didn't rebound."
Rutgers (6-2) returns to action Sunday at the Louis Brown Athletic Center, taking on UAB.

Wilmington: High School Gymnasium to be Demolished in February
Superintendent of Schools Joanne Benton announced during Wednesday's School Committee meeting that the Wilmington High School gymnasium will be demolished over February vacation.

February vacation is slated to begin on Monday, February 20. On February 11, Benton said fencing will be put up in the area.
Tuesday's Medford City Council meeting ended shortly after it began when councilors could not agree on how to proceed with voting for a council president and vice president for 2013.

After reaching a "historical agreement" with the Melrose Patrolmen's Union, the city of Melrose can expect to see at least three patrolmen and an officer assigned per shift every day, Mayor Rob Dolan said in a press statement on Monday.
A year ago "an outside consultant (was brought in) to review police operations, as I have done with other departments in the city," Dolan said in the statement. The consultant was brought in to investigate overtime costs associated with each shift, according to the statement.
