Taking Care of Yourself with Aromatherapy as an Aromatherapist
By Sharon Falsetto, CA, BA (Hons)
Working as an aromatherapist is, to many, a dream job - being surrounded with scents and oils all day long and making lots of aromatherapy potions and lotions to make people feel better! What could be better? However, like many jobs, we often get so involved in what we are doing for other people that we forget to take a minute and take care of ourselves, too. But if we don't take care of ourselves, who will? And what better way to do it than with aromatherapy!
With this is mind, I decided to start paying better attention to my own body in 2012 by using aromatherapy. Although I do use aromatherapy in my daily skincare routine, it is not often that I think of using the aromatherapy bath scrubs, salts, candles and lotions that I make for other people, spending the time to take care of me once in a while! If you take the time to look after yourself, you will find that your business and your clients will begin to benefit, too.
Taking an aromatic bath, for example, will also give you inspiring alone time space where you can think more clearly and creatively for your business. Without the distractions of the outside world, alone with only the scents of the essential oils, ideas begin to flow more freely and clearly than when you are trying to answer e-mails, the phone, keep up with order queries and check what is going on in the social media world!
Certain essential oils can also help protect you against stress or winter colds; for example, the citrus oils such as sweet orange (Citrus sinensis), lemon (Citrus limon) or lime (Citrus aurantifolia) are great oils for lifting your spirits and dealing with sniffles at the same time. Use a candle fragranced by these essential oils - or add them to an aromatherapy diffuser. You can also put a few of drops, diluted in Epsom salts, in a warm bath and let the steam from the bath carry the aromas to your nose.
Aromatherapy can be used in various ways but sometimes bath scrubs and salts get put into the "luxury" box rather than the "necessary" box. But, made with right essential oils, scrubs and bath salts can be healing to your body. They take care of your skin and are soothing to the emotions, too.
Choose beneficial essential oils for both the skin and the mind. Some of my favorites include rose (Rosa damascena), lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) and ylang ylang (Cananga odorata). Here are a couple of my own recipes to help you make the most of your next soak in the tub. Just make sure you use aromatherapy candles made with essential oils for the full therapeutic experience!
Daytime Coffee Sugar Scrub
- 1 oz turbinado sugar
- 1oz brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground coffee
- 2 teaspoons jojoba oil
- 2 teaspoons almond oil
- 1 teaspoon raw honey
Mix all the ingredients in a jar. I find that if you make this scrub the day before you plan to use it and leave it in the refrigerator overnight it is much better to use than making it just before you plan to use it. Apply to your body (avoiding the face) in small circular movements. Leave on for about five minutes and wash off. This scrub leaves your skin feeling silky smooth! You could mix in one of your favorite essential oils, too, but I find that the therapeutic benefits of both the jojoba oil and almond oil - plus the honey which has been used in skincare for centuries - is adequate. Just make sure you use raw honey (which maintains its therapeutic properties) and not the processed honey that is commonly found on the grocery store shelf.
Nighttime Bath Soak
- 2 oz sea salt
- 1 oz baking soda
- 15 drops lavender essential oil (Lavandula angustifolia)
- 10 drops ylang ylang essential oil (Cananga odorata)
- 10 drops sweet orange essential oil (Citrus sinensis var. dulcis)
Mix all of the ingredients together in a jar and add to your bath water as desired. You can also use Dead Sea salts, Epsom salts or Himalayan pink salts in this recipe, depending upon your preference. The mix of lavender, ylang ylang and sweet orange essential oils leaves you feeling relaxed, pampered and uplifted.
Bed Time Spritzer
- 2 oz distilled water
- 15 drops of lavender essential oil (Lavandula angustifolia)
- 10 drops of Roman chamomile essential oil (Chamaemelum nobile)
Mix the essential oils with the distilled water in a spray bottle and spritz onto your pillow before going to sleep. The mix of lavender and Roman chamomile essential oils is a great choice for those who have difficulty getting to sleep or suffer from occasional bouts of insomnia.
After spending a bit of quality aromatherapy time with yourself, you will feel relaxed, rested and ready to take care of others once again. Put your own body back in balance with a little bit of your own aromatherapy advice!
All recipes are intended for topical use only. If irritation occurs discontinue use.

Aced! Local 7th grader get hole-in-one
Photo by Anthony Cuypers/Special to the Times-Record
Drew Oberlander, a seventh grader at Valley City Junior High School, shot a hole-in-one Wednesday during a junior high tournament at Bjornson Public Golf Course. Oberlander sunk the shot on the course's second hole, a par-3, with a 3-wood. He is the 30th golfer to sink an ace since the course opened in 1994. Valley City native Tom Kellogg had a hole-in-one last Thursday on the course's fourth hole.

Nike NFL Jerseys For Sale " Garrett said.
Notes: The Cowboys waived/injured LB Alex Albright, DT Travis Chappelear and DE Toby Jackson. ... LB Anthony Spencer, who had arthroscopic surgery on his left knee four weeks ago said he has no doubt about playing in the season opener Sept. 8 against the New York Giants. Spencer is building up strength in the weight room and isn't back on the field yet. ... Safety J.J. Wilcox had not returned to the team yet following his mother's death last week. "We do anticipate him coming back at some point this week," Garrett said.
The second-year running back out of North Texas had eight rushing attempts for 45 yards and caught six passes for 83 yards in the preseason games.
"Explosive. He's just one of those guys who can turn like a 5-yard play into an 80-yard play," Bryant said.
After a month on the West Coast for training camp and three exhibition games, the Cowboys were finally home Monday when they practiced at their Valley Ranch facility.
Cheap Air Max USA
, Texas (AP) — The Dallas Cowboys have made it back to real life and the heat.
Second-year running back Lance Dunbar was at Valley Ranch with a protective boot on his sprained left foot. He had catches of 43 and 18 yards in Saturday's loss to Arizona, though Garrett said he wasn't sure when Dunbar hurt his foot.
And readjust to the warm temperatures in North Texas.
"It's always great to be home," receiver Dez Bryant said. "I think the approach we came with (Monday) morning was outstanding. There was no sluggish feeling."
Bryant had a bulky wrap around his right thumb, which he jammed during camp. He was quick to say that his thumb is great, and his performance during camp and in the games (seven catches for 129 yards) certainly indicates that.
Cornerback Orlando Scandrick said the only thing that changed for him was not having a camp cafeteria for meals.
"It ain't changing, so make it work,

," Garrett said.
The injury could also put Dunbar's status for the Sept. 8 season opener against the New York Giants in jeopardy,

"We have been in that environment out there by ourselves,
Nike Shoes Clearance Outlet
, away from our families. And you get used to that, you get used to being focused only on football. And that's a good thing," coach Jason Garrett said. "Now you come back to real life and you have to stay focused on football."
"He's certainly going to be out for this week, and we're just kind of seeing day to day beyond that," Garrett said. "He's playing really well. Done a really nice job for us in all phases as a runner,
Curry 1 Lux Mid Leather
, as a receiver and as a pass protector. He's showing up on special teams and hopefully this is just a mild setback for him."
Garrett said Dunbar is certainly out of Saturday night's game at home against Arizona, the fourth of the team's five exhibition games.
"I go home and there's no food in my refrigerator," Scandrick said. "Work is work. I'm excited about this season, taking the next step and winning games, and being a good football team."
There is no marine layer lingering over the Valley Ranch practice fields as so often is the case in Oxnard, Calif.
The forecast highs at home this week are in the mid- to upper-90s,
Cheap Liverpool Shirts Uk
, about 25 to 30 degrees warmer than in Oxnard, where the team had camp. The Cowboys have morning practices through Wednesday, avoiding the hottest part of the day.
Hatcher then looked into one of the television cameras and requested that Garrett keep the morning practice schedule.
As for making the transition from California camp to being at home, defensive tackle Jason Hatcher said it was good for him.
"Seeing my wife and kids ... it was great," Hatcher said. "I was excited to come in and have this early practice."

Pets, Pets, Pets
Throughout history cats have sparked social conscience and creativity in the greatest of minds. To DaVinci "the smallest feline was a masterpiece"; to Schweitzer "music and cats were the two means of refuge from the misery of life"; to Hemingway "a cat had absolute honesty." Edgar Allan Poe and Sir Walter Scott envied the cat's mystery. Even an unknown feline philosopher, no relation to Descartes, once joked: "I purr, therefore I am."
For Dr. Joan Digby, LI University Humanities professor, compassion and cats complement curriculum. An advocate of TNR (Trap Neuter Return), Dr. Digby, along with her colleagues, manages an inconspicuous yet content colony of campus cats. Her Honors students design cat shelters that blend with college architecture. The ferals in her care inspire Dr. Digby to compose picturesque poetry. The following are selected from her collection- A Clowder of Cats:
FERAL COLONY They come from nowhere at the sound of my car.
Gray streaks at first: dappled Puffball, Oyster, flat like pewter, long haired mop of a philosophical sister called Plato, yellow-eyed and pensive. Then from the bushes a flash of black and white- Kodak and Ilford shooting past at a a hundredth of a second click, click like fast film. Now the Clones march slowly on parade, black with the same white star on their chests sporting the mark of a long family line. Delicate maidens take their time: she with the white nose, the shy aunt who lost her tail, Cleopatra fringed with a golden face, two hungry tigers and at last the Red King. I wait and watch and count and feed, I call them jeweled movements, the time pieces that regulate my morning hour. LOVE HANDLES Cats also have love handles, that wiggle when they walk like a runway model in a swing coat letting each thrust of her hips reveal all the soft longing for the days before she had her tubes tied.
RITUAL MEAL The cats didn't know my mother died. They were simply waiting for the food I bring them every morning. "Momma's here," I called as usual, "Breakfast," as they tripped around my legs keen for the opening of cans. But my momma wasn't here today and wouldn't be again for an eternity to come. Snapping the lids I thought of breakfasts she had made and threw myself into the task of serving up food in my mother's name.
THE OLD MASTER (SIX-PACK 1988-2006) It's Thursday Six-pack is sitting on a chair in the front row waiting for class but no other students have arrived. He has taken Foundation fifteen times and still is yearning to learn more about perspective and figure drawing With polydactyl paws he has the means to be creative far beyond his kind. The human students will not come today but Six-pack holds his place meditating on the monumental plastic form needed to express the shape of feline thought.
PAW NOTE: A huge portrait of Six-pack leaning on an art pedestal hangs above Dr. Digby's desk. This majestic tabby lived to be 18, and spent his final years in a loving home off campus.
Poster Pets
Our poster pets at Babylon Town Shelter (643-9270) Lamar St. W. Babylon deserve loving homes too. "Beach Boy" in Cage 69 is a delightful Lab mix, about 1 yr., probably abandoned at Oak Beach. He doesn't belong to anyone there. The shelter thought they'd need to trap him but after several days he jumped right into the truck. He licked us while we removed tons of ticks. "Beach Boy" sits and gives his paw. Also waiting: "Cali", # 18682 a pathetically thin, 1 yr. tortie, who came into the shelter nursing 6 kittens, some still available. She lived with other cats. "Cali" desperately needs a caring person to put some meat on her bones.
Dogs: Husky trio- "Shadow" a purebred male Cage 41, "Rusty" Cage 35, a young female Cage 67; "Moppet"- Beardie mix Cage 91; "Noah"- Chow type Cage 9; "Casper"- cute Jack Russell in the Puppy Room; "Alex"- Shep mix Cage 39.
Cats: "MJ" #18633- super-loving tabby- now appearing in her Spiderman costume; "Ms. Peabody" #18624 -dainty gray uses her paw as a spoon to scoop out one morsel at a time. `+Last Hope-"Dog Walk, BBQ & Fun Night" Sat. 6/2, register at 4:30 at Wantagh Park. Call 516-486-3158 or visit us online at

Asymbol Launches Synchronicity Series Artwork By Mike Parillo
Jackson Hole, WY (Jan 22, 2014) – Asymbol has announced a new collection of mixed media original artwork by Mike Parillo entitled 'Synchronicity Series' is now available exclusively from asymbol.co.
Comprised of five editioned original works, Synchronicity Series represents Mike's first foray into creating hand-made limited edition original art. Each piece in the Synchronicity Series was born from a one-off graphic created specifically for silk screens that Mike will run ten times, and then reclaim. Each set of panels in the series has also been assigned a unique hand-painted background under layer that Mike applies coat by coat at his studio in LA.
According to Mike, "the spark to realize these came from reflecting on the past years in Jackson as a result of my recent move back to LA after a seven year hiatus. In this city of strangers I'm constantly reminded what an amazing and magic thing our world of snow, fun and friends is."
Synchronicity Series is available exclusively via Asymbol's website asymbol.co. Each piece in this collection features unique, individual variations that are the result of Mike producing each one by hand. Once each editioned original piece is sold out, the screens used to produce them will be reclaimed and no more will ever be produced.
The complete Synchronicity Series can be seen here:
"I hope the connection comes through and that these give you the tickle inside," says Parillo. "It's all golden regardless, synchronicity strikes everyday and life is still just a trip no matter where you are. Gotta love that."
About Mike Parillo: Mike Parillo has been a creative force in art since he was inspired to try his hand at painting by snowboarding legend Jamie Lynn. Jamie used one of Mike's first paintings as a graphic for one of the boards in his Lib Tech pro-model series. Volcom used another in their landmark video, The Garden. The rest, as they say, is history. Parillo's paintings have been shown in solo shows from Europe to California. His art has been displayed on snowboards every year since 1995, adorning beloved board series such as Terje's Balance line, Burton's early Customs, countless Lib Tech models and especially Travis Rice's pro models. Mike is a co-founder of Asymbol.
About Asymbol: Asymbol is a Jackson Hole, WY based art gallery and brand dedicated to the best art and artists from boardriding culture. Founded in 2009 by Travis Rice and Mike Parillo, Asymbol features limited edition prints, photography, books, apparel and merchandise that share common roots in snowboarding, surfing and skateboarding. Asymbol can be found online at asymbol.co.

PLAINFIELD, N.J. - April 5, 2013 --Authorities in northern New Jersey are awaiting autopsy results to determine the cause of death for a woman whose body was found with her 3-month-old twins, who were dehydrated but responsive.
Officers on Wednesday responded to a call from a relative concerned that he hadn't heard from 39-year-old Alice Jackson in days.
Jackson was found dead on her bed in her Plainfield apartment. Police she appeared to have died of natural causes. They believe she had been dead for days when she was found.
Her children remain hospitalized in stable condition.
The discovery comes a week after police in nearby Union discovered a malnourished toddler chain-locked inside an apartment with his dead mother.

Please share your convention experiences here:
The convention in Melbourne was really great to attend. All the speakers had something different to offer. The most surprising might have been Sam Harris managing to get 4,000 atheists doing Buddhist mediation. I thought I was at the wrong convention for a moment. Sam changed his talk to discuss Death. It was useful and thought provoking.
There was lots said about teaching religion in schools, and funding religious schools. There was lots said about morals being human and not god given. About the need to have more women leading in the movement. About acting on violence and harm caused to children - genital mutilation, that has been overlooked for fear of seeming Islamaphobic.
Would love to hear others thoughts and reports - so we can reflect on what we've gained from the Melbourne convention.

Ah, 100 Days. I miss you already, on this little Chicago VeganMania suspension & adventure. I miss my kitchen so much when I travel – especially when my luck seems to fail with menu ordering more often than not in the Windy City..but I digress, I mean, did I go through cooking withdrawals and try to sneak my way into the cooking demo prep kitchen at the end of the day to prepare dinner for team VVC? Only Janessa knows for sure.
I'm here now to quickly share 11 more days of this dedicated project, with 9 more days beyond. I'd love to go out with a bang, and somehow incorporate that into tomorrow's month-long start of VeganMoFo…..so, time (and google doc obsessing) will tell what's in store.
Let me ridiculously share that this post features the return of my cursed, new camera, which started malfunctioning again in Chicago. Alas. It hates to travel.
Every meal is better was a side of steamed choi.
These local, green chickpeas will likely become a once-a-summer-intrigue purchase. I can't say they made a considerable difference, but I don't think I can resister farmer's market chickpeas.
Dear SE Portland neighbors who seem to ignore their plum trees on an annual basis,
Please, please, let me appreciate your proceeds. Invite me over. There will be a fresh fruit coffeecake in your immediate future. It's a promise.
Infusions are a thing of the past.
The above concoction originated during a recent cocktail party and will be featured during MoFo on Heartichoke Fridays. Or Saturdays. Or Sundays. TBA.
That pasta dish seems to tie with pickled hot peppers for 100 Days popularity in my kitchen.
Now, day ninety included a warming lemongrass-and-garlic based hot & sour soup with soft tofu strips, all so, so on the fly, that I somehow didn't manage to capture. Once again, alas.
Speaking of air-drying and related lessons in patience….
And another one with a legitimate recipe to follow during MoFo, oh my:
As always, check out the @jdfunks Instagrammer for more updates.

The CLC will be open for the following:
The Center for Law and Computers is seeking to hire a student worker to complete a specific electronic publishing project. Between 10 - 20 hours a week as schedule allows. Position requires familiarity with Folio Views 4.0 and proficiency in Microsoft Word 97. Pay is $7.50 per hour. Interested persons should email Melissa Mooney.
We've updated the interface to all email stations and lab computers to familiarize you with the look and feel of your own personal computer and computer interfaces you will find working in a firm. This new interface operates from the familiar Windows 95/98 display, but the icons have been positioned on the desktop to allow you to access the commonly used networking features, such as the Word Processors, Web Browsers and E-Mail. (That's right, we're making Internet Explorer available in addition to Netscape!)
One caveat to the new interface is that you get the standard Windows 95/98 shutdown screen. So now, when you click on the LOGOUT icon to logout of your session, we do ask that you click on the RESTART option and not SHUT DOWN. Selecting SHUT DOWN will indeed shut down the computer and before the next person can use the computer, they will have to restart the computer. If you select RESTART, then the computer reboots to the login screen and is ready for the next user.
The new computer lab is open and available for students. This lab is conveniently located on the fifth floor in room 545. This lab has 8 brand new desktop computers, 1 laser printer, and 8 connections available for students to connect their laptops to the network (a nice place to print something off quickly).
Late last semester the virus protection software was updated to clean off a new virus that is transferred in Microsoft Word. As always, it is a good idea to update the virus protection software on your personal computer periodically to catch any new viruses that are out there. Since we have a site license to McAfee Virus scan, all students can install copies of this software onto their computers for free. (Thus, no excuse not to do it!)
There are two ways to install the software on your personal computer:
I. Laptop that connects to Kentnet:
Online Student Directory
DEADLINE to pay Fall ' 98 Printing Balances
Student Printing Spring ' 99 Semester
May Graduates
Answers to some of the most commonly asked questions of the CLC:
FYI: Network Maintenance
Regular general maintenance of the network is necessary to ensure greater performance, both in terms of speed and the prevention of any serious problems. To achieve these goals, the Center for Law and Computers will periodically take down the network to perform this maintenance. We've scheduled the maintenance on a monthly basis, for only 1.5 hours on days and at times to inconvenience the least amount of users.
Here are the dates that we will be taking the network down. On these days, the network will not be available between 5:30am and 7:00am.

That sounds like a group to be part off, what sort of time are you looking at and average for the trip? I am guessing that you are aiming at a straight run if 3 bottles are needed?
I can pull a 32 average solo over a 60-70km river loop .... Let me know if I qualify and I may tag along and bring a mate for more help?

This item arrived in my mailbox 4 days after ordering -- fantastic order fulfillment!! Of course, I had to try it out right away, and was not disappointed. The item is much bigger (and heavier!!) than I imagined it would be, but that's not a complaint. After measuring the diameter of other comfortable cock rings that I own, I ordered the 50 mm size ring, and it fits nicely. It's very comfortable to wear for long periods of time. I wore it for over 6 hours one weekend as I cleaned around the house after hosting a party. If you have to vacuum and dust and pick up around the house anyway, this (not so) little toy makes this mundane task more enjoyable. This is the 3rd item I've ordered from The Chain Gang, and I have been completely satisfied with each item, including the the service and delivery. I don't typically submit reviews to online stores that I patronize, but the quality of the products at The Chain Gang and their speedy service deserves recognition. Will be back again soon, I'm sure.

The Jamestown School Committee has decided to take up what could be a tremendous and time-consuming task; naming Jamestown's two public schools.
For years we've called the schools by their locations. The elementary school has been the Melrose Avenue School and the middle school is referred to as the Lawn Avenue School.
But neither school has an official name. There are no plaques hanging at the school entrances. Some say that official names are needed to bolster the spirit at both schools which is already quite good.
Before the elementary school was built, the island had just one school on Lawn Avenue. That building was called the Jamestown School.
With two school buildings, it's not quite so easy.
Of course the obvious choice would be to continue with tradition and keep the official names for the schools simple. Just keep calling them the Melrose Avenue School and the Lawn Avenue School.
Or the School Committee could make things complicated. Perhaps the middle school could be named the Jamestown Middle School (that is if the school is really a "middle school"). The elementary school could be called the Conanicut Island Elementary School.
There are many other possibilities for school monikers. The schools could be named after important figures in island history, such as a couple of original island settlers.
United States history is another source for school names. We could call one of the schools the George Washington School, in honor of our nation's first president who at one point rode or walked across the island on his way to Newport.
The School Committee could open the process to the public and ask that suggestions be submitted for consideration. When a decision is made and the buildings are named, we could have a big ceremony with a ribbon cutting at each school and pictures for the sake of history.
My vote is that we stick with convention and officially name the schools what everyone is used to and what everyone would most likely continue to call them: the Melrose Avenue and Lawn Avenue schools.

"The International Trade Commission voted yesterday to investigate Apple for patent infringement allegations launched by the Google-owned Motorola Mobility. As expected, Motorola is asking for import bans on just about every iOS device, including iPhones, iPods, and iPads. What might be surprising is that Motorola is also asking for a ban on every type of Mac OS X computer, claiming Apple's iMessage technology infringes a Motorola patent." Let's hope all those products get banned. And that all Motorola phones get banned. Let's hope everything gets banned from the US. And yes, I changed Motorola into Google for the headline.

Are you going to watch "Start-Ups: Silicon Valley," Bravo's new Randi Zuckerberg-produced reality TV show about "the intertwining lives of young professionals on the path to becoming Silicon Valley's next great success"?
If you're intrigued by these two quotes from the teaser trailer — "Being a geek is like being the new rock stars" and "Silicon Valley is like high school, but it's only the smart kids and everyone has a lot of money" — you'll probably want to tune in on November 5th. (We're not judging. Maybe.) The rest of us have "Huh?" ("Ever wonder who is behind those hilarious cat memes?

The documentation on the homepage is of the quite old 0.5 release. Be sure to check out the developer version and type doxygen there to get an up-to-date documentation. It includes a lot of classes more now .
As for the UI framework, the problem is that it's hard to have an abstraction for UIs that does look native anywhere - that's almost impossible, I guess. Maybe the better way is to just create bindings to common toolkits and have similar APIs so it's easy to port from one toolkit to another.

Shelter takes in dogs found freezing in truck
One of the four pit bulls is in poor health, Mohawk Hudson director said
MENANDS — Four adult pit bulls that were found sick and shivering in the back of a U-Haul truck Saturday in Colonie are being cared for by the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society, though one of the dogs is in very poor health, the shelter said.
The Albany man charged with leaving the dogs in the truck in near-freezing temperatures, Anthony Walker, is the same man who was charged Jan. 14 with abandoning a trio of abused and malnourished pit bull puppies in September near an Arbor Hill railroad track.
Brad Shear, the humane society's executive director, said it was too early to tell whether the fully grown pit bulls were the parents of the puppies Walker allegedly abandoned. Shear said it was also unclear whether Albany police knew Walker had the adult dogs in his possession at the time of his Jan. 14 arrest in the earlier case.
For leaving the dogs in the cold U-Haul, Walker, 30, was charged Saturday with torturing and injuring animals, a misdemeanor under the Agriculture and Markets Law. For the "railroad puppies" incident, Walker was charged with abandonment of a disabled animal, also a misdemeanor.
Walker is being held at Albany County jail and is scheduled to appear Feb. 15 in Albany City Court. A court date for Saturday's arrest has not yet been set.
It's unclear how long the four adult pit bulls were left in the truck, but police said they had been there for an extended time.
Colonie police said Walker recently was displaced from a home in Albany and was receiving government assistance to temporarily stay at a Super 8 motel on Central Avenue, where the dogs were found in the truck around 6:30 p.m. Walker may have been staying at the motel since Thursday, Colonie Police Lt. Robert Winn said.
Shear said all four pit bulls seized Saturday were in poor health and that one female was "in very bad shape." The dogs were first treated at the Capital District Animal Emergency Clinic before being taken to the shelter.
In the railroad puppies case, police said Walker left three 3-week-old puppies near railroad tracks near the Ida Yarbrough apartments. One pup was missing two toes and another had a hole pierced through one of its paws. The third puppy died.
At first, officials believed someone may have nailed the puppies to the tracks. But after Walker's Jan. 14 arrest, police said "What occurred that evening does not appear to have happened the way it was initially portrayed." Citing the ongoing investigation, both police and the Albany County District Attorney's Office have not discussed the case or what they believed led to the puppies being abandoned and abused.
The two surviving puppies, Hudson and Pearl, were slowly nursed back to health. Hudson had to have his rear left paw amputated and was fitted with a prosthetic paw.
Both dogs, now about 5 months old, were adopted into separate homes last month.
Shear said it could take some time to bring the four adult pit bulls found Saturday back to good health and when, or if, they'll be available for adoption.

Crazy times in Peru. Can you help?
You know I went to Peru with my daughter to serve the Sunflower Orphanage near Urubamba. After we were there, it poured rain in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, nonstop for 4 days and 4 nights. You may have heard about people being airlift-rescued out of Machu Picchu.
The hotel we stayed in? Destroyed. The restaurant we ate in? Destroyed. 30,000 homes gone. The Amazon rose to 4 times its normal height–and even when we were there, I stared at it for the 90-min. train ride to Machu Picchu, as it is the wildest river I've ever seen.
I'm glad to report that the orphanage (well located high on the hill) and all the kids are fine. The kids cleaned and widened the drainage systems the week before (Leo might be inspired?). Other families whose homes were destroyed climbed up to the orphanage for safety. Their school is okay. But the farm we planted in, that feeds the kids, was washed out. The clothes we sent have been given to many displaced people living in tents.
Another orphanage close by was destroyed, and 12 orphans desperately need a place to stay. Could you help by sponsoring a child? Here's the link to do so, and may God bless you for helping:

Robyn, what is the appropriate amount required to sponsor a child? I don't see that specified anywhere.

Oct. 23 Barry Zito workout day interview
Q. Kind of obvious difference between this year and 2010 for yourself, but have you allowed yourself to think about that and just how far you've come since then and being a part of this this year?
BARRY ZITO: Not really. It's not important to reflect right now. There's work to do. I'm going to be on the mound here in the next 24 hours, so that's where my focus is at.
Q. Kind of obvious difference between this year and 2010 for yourself, but have you allowed yourself to think about that and just how far you've come since then and being a part of this this year?
BARRY ZITO: Not really. It's not important to reflect right now. There's work to do. I'm going to be on the mound here in the next 24 hours, so that's where my focus is at.
Q. It seems like your command people say the command is better for you now. How has that happened? Is it anything that you've worked on? Is it just something that happened?
BARRY ZITO: Yeah, working on a lot of things. There's so many different factors, it's hard to just answer how to get your command good. But on the mechanical side, it's just having the right timing and having the right feel.
Q. Is there any way you can exploit the Tigers in that they haven't played in so long? Is there anything that you can do to gain the advantage over a team that may be a little jumpy and anxious?
BARRY ZITO: Yeah, you know, I'm not sure. I guess we can hypothesize for a while on how prepared they are being that they haven't played these high intensity games. But they're still 25 guys with immense talent, so that's probably going to come to the surface tomorrow night. So I don't really choose to try to exploit something from that angle of them not being playing games lately.
Q. What's your take on your team's ability to survive and have success in these elimination games, and maybe with your own personal experience in your last outing, what was that like for you knowing what the stakes were?
BARRY ZITO: You know, it was a big game, definitely. I just knew that we had to get the series back to San Francisco and we had to get the fans involved, and they came out with more energy than I saw really at any time, even in 2010. That was the difference for us.
Q. Just wondering if you could comment on what starting Game 1 of the World Series means to you personally.
BARRY ZITO: Yeah, it means a lot. Like I said earlier, it's hard to reflect and really become third person about this experience. It's more about right now just going out and preparing for a ballgame against a good team. You know, I can look back on everything when I'm back home.
Q. Can you talk about the excitement of being in this situation? I know on the mound you have your emotions in control, but we're 24 hours away. Talk about the excitement and the joy of being in this situation.
BARRY ZITO: Well, for me personally, to look at the whole story and everything else doesn't really help me because I have a routine I have to stick to. I'm excited to pitch every time I get on the mound. This is a more exciting opportunity than most.
Q. We know your story a little bit, obviously, but talk about how much you appreciate where you are now in terms of your career and the game as opposed to maybe earlier years ago when you were starting out.
BARRY ZITO: Yeah, I feel like I've grown up in this game, you know. When I came up in Oakland, I felt like I was a boy in the game. You have talent, and you just keep going to the next level, and all of a sudden everyone is kind of like looking at you and there's fans chanting your name and stuff, and you're not really sure why.
You know, and then to mature in this game is a big deal. That process is in huge part becoming a free agent, going to a new team, signing a big deal and dealing with everything that comes with that. So I feel like an adult in the game now (smiling).
Q. You've been through a lot. How do you think Bochy has handled you and handled the team over the course of the last two years, and specifically this year where there's been so much going on and so many injuries?
BARRY ZITO: Oh, Bochy has just been unbelievable. I mean, wow. He gets the credit. He gets a lot of credit. But I think he's due even more.
What I always talk about this year is the way he handles the bullpen. I mean, for a team to go out there without a definite, definite closer for most of the season, it's just unreal what's going on. I mean, we're doing matchups in the eighth, matchups in the ninth, one run games, extra inning games, pulling these games out. It's much easier on a manager when you have your obvious 7th, 8th and 9th setup guys, and your closer, and Bochy didn't have that luxury.
Q. He's talked about how you reacted to the situation two years ago, but how about the way he handled you?
BARRY ZITO: He's always handled me very professional. He's always communicated, and sometimes the truth was not what I wanted to hear, but it was the truth, and other times he's said things that felt good to me. He's always been just a great guy personally and a great manager from a kind of player's perspective.
Q. How do you pitch differently in a situation where it's desperation like the last game you pitched versus a case like tomorrow where the slate is clean?
BARRY ZITO: Desperation never came into my mind. Maybe that was what other people were feeling. For me being on the mound is an opportunity to express my talent the best I can, and a lot of the circumstances swirling around, they should not be a factor. Sometimes they are, but it's my job to focus on what's important.
Q. One of your few high points last year was the six shut out innings in Detroit spanning two hours of a nine hour rain delay. What did that game mean to you personally, to go out and win that game?
BARRY ZITO: That was in my top five experiences on the field because I had pitched a double header the Tuesday before, and Bochy said, can you go on three days' rest and pitch Saturday, and I said sure. Then we had a two and a half hour delay, and I came back from it and was able to go, I think, six. That was just awesome, personally just to I think from a body standpoint at 33 to be able to do that. That's pretty big.
Yeah, it was cool to pitch in Detroit, too. I hadn't pitched there in a while.
Q. Can you talk about the chemistry on this team and how it's different from maybe the last couple of years? It seems like as things get more desperate with all these elimination games, the bond between you guys got tighter.
BARRY ZITO: It did. This team has had its tests in the regular season, and so the tests that we encountered in the postseason didn't really make us panic I think as much as it would have if we didn't already have those muscles kind of built up from losing Wilson early, going through the Cabrera situation, just really everything that we had come back from. It kind of makes sense that we had some serious adversity because that seemed to ignite us.
Q. A lot of your teammates cited your experience in Game 5 in St. Louis as sort of giving them the momentum to win this series. What was it like for you after that game, just the thoughts that went through your mind as you're flying home and getting home? What was that like?
BARRY ZITO: It's just kind of it's hard to realize the implications sometimes when you go out there and you pitch. We're just trying to go out and do the best we can and do what we love, and sometimes there's no implications and sometimes there's huge ones. That was a big game, certainly, to cut their momentum down in their own park and to come back here was the whole season as our team. For us to do that was just incredible. It was such a blessing to be a part of that.
Q. Just wondering if you can comment on what makes Miguel Cabrera such a tough hitter to face.
BARRY ZITO: Yeah, I haven't faced Miguel in a while. I think I've only faced him eight times. But I think in '07 I faced him when he was with Florida. He has an ability to get to most every pitch. He can get the barrel on most every pitch, and when he gets the barrel on something, his strength comes into play, and he can put the ball out of the park, every part of the park, even in Detroit's park. It's pretty impressive what's going on there. Really happy for him that he was able to win that award this year.

Press release from the Office of the Attorney General of Tennessee; August 29, 2012:
Tennessee homeowners are already reaping substantial benefits under the National Mortgage Settlement, according to a preliminary report released today by settlement monitor Joe Smith.
Compiling data received from all five mortgage servicers who are party to the settlement, the report shows that Tennessee homeowners have received over $36 million in relief during the first quarter of the settlement from March 1, 2012 through June 30, 2012. The relief comes in the form of loan modifications, refinances and facilitated short sales.
The monitor's report also shows that at the close of the quarterly period servicers were in the process of offering an additional $17-29 million in savings to Tennessee homeowners.
"Although this preliminary report represents a good start by these five servicers, there is still a lot more work to do," said Tennessee Attorney General Bob Cooper. "Our office is committed to making sure that homeowners receive the benefits they are entitled to under the settlement."
In April, Tennessee along with 48 other Attorneys General and federal agencies reached an agreement with the nation's top five mortgage servicers: Bank of America, J.P. Morgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Citigroup, and Ally Financial/GMAC. Prompted by a series of state and federal investigations into improper foreclosure and industry practices, the settlement is designed to provide immediate assistance to struggling homeowners and make foreclosure a last resort. The settlement will provide an estimated $25 billion in relief nationwide to distressed borrowers and state governments, including an estimated $140 million in benefits here in Tennessee.
The report, which is not required under the settlement, includes raw numbers which have not yet been verified for their accuracy. But the report indicates that servicers have taken a good first step toward meeting their obligations under the settlement. Overall, nearly 2,000 homeowners in Tennessee either have received or are in the process of receiving relief during the period covering the report, an encouraging number considering that the settlement will bind the servicers until late 2015.
The report comes at a time when the housing market in Tennessee and throughout the country has shown signs of improvement and increased stability. One aspect of the settlement that could sustain that momentum is the provisions requiring the servicers to make timely decisions regarding short sales. In Tennessee, servicers have already approved 437 short sales at a benefit of over $22 million to homeowners in just four months, according to the report.
Still, foreclosure rates remain high throughout the state. Recently, Attorney General Cooper and Tennessee Housing Development Agency Executive Director Ted R. Fellman announced a hotline is now available for Tennessee homeowners who are struggling to make their mortgage payments.
Homeowners can call toll-free 855-876-7283 (Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. CT) and speak to a representative who can direct homeowners to a free foreclosure prevention counselor and explain various housing assistance programs. Although the mortgage settlement only covers select homeowners whose loans are serviced by the nation's five largest servicers, the hotline is available to all struggling Tennessee homeowners, regardless of who services their loan.
In addition, homeowners who are having trouble with the five servicers covered by the settlement can report problems to the Office of Mortgage Settlement Oversight by visiting www.mortgageoversight.com.
For more information about free foreclosure prevention counselors or mortgage assistance programs in Tennessee, homeowners may visit www.tn.gov/attorneygeneral or www.KeepMyTNHome.org. For more information about the settlement, please visit www.nationalmortgagesettlement.com.

Bebe Neuwirth plays Jenny in the Kurt Weill revue, Here Lies Jenny, at the Zipper Theater.
Neuwirths certainly got legs
A chilly Kurt Weill revue at the Zipper nonetheless offers pleasures
By CHRIS SCHMIDT
Who is Jenny, the title character of Here Lies Jenny, the high-concept Kurt Weill revue at the Zipper Theater starring Bebe Neuwirth?
Is she Pirate Jenny, the trod-upon chambermaid from Weills Three Penny Opera, who, long abused by her betters, famously bites back? Perhaps she is the campy character from Weills Saga of Jenny (with lyrics by Ira Gershwin) who convinced herself that at 22 that getting herself a husband was the thing to do. She got herself all dolled up in satin and furs. She got herself a husbandbut he wasnt hers.
In a show with no dialogue or banter, its hard to get a handle on Jenny, though the skeleton of a story suggests itself. Stumbling into a decrepit saloon with a desperate look on her face, Jenny is a woman on the run, a bag of mementoes she clutches to her chest her only consolation. Two thugswho happen also to be a bit light on their feettease and taunt her.
The woman collapses to the floor, all but broken, when suddenly the harsh lights fade and a warm spotlight appears. Jenny walks into it, stepping out of her plain sack dress and into a black satin negligee. Grabbing an old-school 1940s microphone by the neck, she magically blossoms into the chanteuse we were all hoping she was. What emerges, in a night that casts a semi-jaundiced and sentimental eye on love, is the picture of a down-and-out Everywoman clinging to whatever shreds of glamour she can still muster.
If the identity of Jenny ultimately remains opaque, one imagines thats exactly what was intended by this revues creators, who, in addition to Neuwirth, include choreographer Ann Reinking and director Roger Rees. Brecht was of course Weills most famous collaborator, and there is more than a dash of an alienation effect at play. Neuwirth sings some of the evenings first songs from behind the grilled window of a stage door; much of the medley that follows she sings with her back to the audience. Theatergoers wanting to be seduced into an evening of decadent but ultimately heartwarming cabaret will be disappointed.
Im not one of those people, but still I found Here Lies Jenny at times more frustrating than rewarding. Kurt Weill, with hisand his collaboratorshard-eyed views of sex and romance, has all the makings for a perfect nights entertainment, especially for a show starting in a down-in-the-mouth part of town at 11 p.m.
Meanwhile, Neuwirth, with her stylized, ruefully cool demeanor, is on paper well-suited to the terrain. Still best known as the uber-intellectual psychiatrist from the TV shows Cheers and Frasier, she is an accomplished musical comedy star, especially in works by Bob Fosse, which have garnered her two Tonys (for Sweet Charity and Chicago). World-weary, sharp, vulnerable without being softa Weill heroine is one tough cookie, and so is Bebe.
Yet for all her abundant stage talents, Neuwirth doesnt possess a luminous singing voice, essential for this stripped-back staging (just piano and voice). Of course, neither did Lotte Lenya, Weills wife and chief interpreter, who, after Weills death, was largely responsible for reviving interest in the composer. Lenya inevitably overshadows any subsequent Weill performanceand its for this reason, perhaps, that the creators omitted Pirate Jenny, the most famous Weill song, despite its offering the most obvious clue to her character.
But where Lenyas shredded pipes were plangent testimony to a life full of hard knocks, Neuwirths rasp seems more the effect of too many performances (or maybe too much PilatesNeuwirths legs are fantastic). As a singer, Neuwirth is never less than good, but shes only wonderful when shes dancing Reinkings minimal but inventive choreography. Only then does she lose the self-consciousness that plagues her performance.
Then there is the issue of Rees staging. Weill may be the coolest of musical theater composers, but he is never pretentious. Here Lies Jenny unfortunately toes that line, especially in the first third of the show. Clutching her collar and sending her saucer eyes ceilingward, Neuwirth seems to be channeling Falconettis Joan of Arc rather than Brechts Jenny. The effect is not unlike that of filmmaker Guy Maddin (The Saddest Music in the World, Dracula), whose ironic take on silent era theatrics has a campy appeal. What Here Lies Jenny lacks is the archness that makes Maddins work so charming. The melodrama in Here Lies Jenny is hollow, as it is in Maddins work, but Rees and company seem to want us to take it straight. But without a story, theres little emotional ballast to pull us in.
Still, there are a number of musical delights, from a somewhat revisionist, and politically relevant, Ballad of the Soldiers Wife to the lesser-known gems including Im a Stranger Here, Too and Susans Dream. Gregory Butler and Shawn Emamjomeh are fine in their roles as the tough-guy Johnnies, and Ed Dixon is absolutely wonderful as the genial bar proprietor, sometime husband and silent emcee. His baritone, which soars beautifully into tenor range, is richly sonorous, his characterizations casual and relaxeda nice counterpoint to Neuwirths steely energy.
Faults aside, its hard not to recommend a show devoted to Kurt Weill. For all its off-putting chilliness, Here Lies Jenny offers a unique and polished evening at the theater. If you have the means, check it out. But those seeking a more echt Weimar experience should make a point to catch Ute Lemper at Joes Pub the next time shes in town; her show displays some of the corniness of the traditional cabaret form, but shes still the bees knees among contemporary Weill interpreters. And do buy a copy of Three Penny Operaeither in English or Germanwith Lenya in it. The life she gave Jenny makes a show like this one possible.

Recipe: Brownie Bites To Go!
There's a convenience store in town that sells freshly baked brownie bites at their register. Now living in the midwest, grabbing a snack and a drink at a gas station is a daily occurrence for most. We grew tired of paying a dollar and a half for these tasty nuggets of joy, so we decided to make them at home on our own!
To start, we used one of our favorite staple brownie recipes from King Arthur Flour: The Cookie Companion. This recipe for On The Fence Brownies yields a nice dense brownie that still has some lift. The best part is, you can make it in one bowl, with one spatula and in under 30 minutes, including baking time. Here's how we went about it:
On The Fence Brownies
Yields 60-70 Bites
1 cup unsalted butter
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 1/4 cups cocoa
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs
1 1/2 cups AP flour
1 cup walnuts or chocolate chips (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and parchment paper (or grease) a 9"x13" pan.
In a medium sized microwaveable bowl (or in a small pot on the stove) melt butter over low heat. Add sugar, stir to combine. Reheat briefly (we used full power for 60 seconds) until butter/sugar mixture looks shiny when stirred.
Stir in cocoa, salt, baking powder and vanilla. Whisk in eggs, stirring until smooth, then add the flour, nuts and chips, again stirring until smooth. Spoon the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake for 28 minutes. The edges will look set, the middle will have a crust ontop, but not appear fully set. Remove from oven and place on wire rack to cool.
To turn these regular brownies into bites, we used several tricks that have to do with timing. There are two methods that worked sucessfully. The first, is to let the brownies cool 100% before working with them. But, since we've never been big on waiting, we removed the parchment from the pan and allowed it to cool on a drying rack for 10 minutes.
Next, we used a bench scraper to cut a grid across our brownies. Even though the center will still be warm, if you press quickly and remove the bench scraper straight up, it should leave minimal brownie residue on the scraper. Separate and cool for 5 minutes. Make sure brownie bites are still on parchment paper as they cool.
Using a large zip top bag, add 1 cup sugar and roughly 20 brownie bites. Tumble bag gently in your hands to coat and remove, shaking each one (like you would dice) before exiting the bag. At this point they are ready to package up however you see fit!

I'm due in 5.5 weeks and have started to think ahead to just beyond the birth and to those first few weeks postpartum when our family routines will be tossed on their heads, my husband and I will be coexisting in a haze of exhaustion and sleep deprivation, and the toddler? Well, who knows what sort of state she'll be in, but we're hoping for the best.
The immediate postpartum period is a tricky time. Mom needs a couple of weeks to heal physically, the family needs a little time to figure out which way is up, and the newborn basically exists in a state of shock as every experience they go through is a new one (can you even imagine?!).
This time we'll be doing it all with a toddler underfoot as well, and while that scares me a little, I'm trying to stay optimistic.
The first time around, I was able to fully indulge in those early weeks. My husband had ample time off of work and a flexible schedule when he returned (including the ability to work from home regularly). I spent most days holed up in the bedroom in my pajamas with the babe, figuring out breastfeeding, sleeping when the baby slept, and otherwise watching endless movies on Netflix streaming. Of course, we had our rough moments – a lot of them – as any new parent does. After all, learning how to soothe and care for a new little creature is confusing and stressful, especially when you do it wrong and the babe then spends the next several hours yelling and crying, as if in protest of your ineptitude.
Or was that just my interpretation of what that was all about? :)
This time, I am optimistic because at least I'm not a newbie at this whole newborn thing. While this baby will be a totally different person from my daughter, with different needs and quirks and preferences, neither am I the same inexperienced mother. I look back on those first weeks postpartum and sort of laugh at how neurotic I was about so many things and how much of a learning curve everything seemed to have.
This time around, however, I feel like I have some tried-and-true tricks up my sleeve. Like that massive stash of babywearing contraptions in the closet, for instance, at least one of which should make the new little one happy – and all of which I am comfortable using already.
Score 1 for mom.
This time, come February, I will have my husband around for support (and toddler wrangling) for the first two weeks or so, but after that, he's back to work full time with an hour commute on either end of the day. It's at that point that we hope we'll have a small rotation of family members coming to visit for a couple days at a time. And with any luck, we'll be able to cover any other major support needs with love and help from local friends.
Our daughter, Poppy, will attend morning pre-school two days a week and I'm considering signing her up for a music class just a block over so that she'll have one more social outlet to wear her out and provide some distraction until spring arrives and we can get outside again. Whether this is a wise idea is yet to be determined. Come late February, getting anywhere – in the snow, with the kids, at a predetermined time – may feel impossible.
But I'm optimistic…. sort of.
What was your immediate postpartum recovery like? Did you have all the support you felt you needed? If you've had more than one child, was it easier/harder/the same each time?

Information by Country
Global Section:
Global Action Week will take place from 2 to 8 May
The 2011 Global Action Week (GAW) on Education for All (EFA) will take place from 2 to 8 May. This year, the Global Campaign for Education is calling upon all governments to invest and commit to equity by ensuring that women and girls, along with men and boys have an equal chance at education. The GCE firmly believes that governments have the know-how and resources to make sure everyone has the chance to learn. All governments have a responsibility to make sure it happens.
The Big Story is the main action that the GCE is promoting in 2011. The action for this year will revolve around story telling. Women and Girls will tell their personal stories about the impact an education or the lack of it has had on their lives. We also want men and boys to tell their stories but for all of the stories to relate to womens experiences and why all women and girls must have the right to a quality education.
The Big Story will comprise of everyone including, children, campaigners, celebrities, exceptional women, and the aim will be to reach out to decision makers at the highest level so that women and girls education gets the attention that it requires globally. We know that in some countries, this issue is less significant than in others, however, it is a serious issue in a large number of countries affecting millions of women and girls all over the world.
The 2011 GAW is part of a sequence of important international events for gender equality and EFA in general, such as the 55th Commission on the Status of Women (22 February - 4 March 2011); the celebration of International Women's Day (8 March); the 10th meeting of the High-Level Group on EFA (Jomtien, Thailand, 22-24 March 2011) and the 2011 ECOSOC Annual Ministerial Review (Geneva, Switzerland, 4 - 8 July 2011). World Teachers Day (5 October) will also focus on gender.

For most of its history, Noe Valley was known as a quaint, remote and relatively inexpensive neighborhood.
But with the dot-com boom of the early 90s, all of that changed when, inspired by a shortage of available housing, the neighborhood was discovered by a more white-collar crowd who snapped up properties and began to make Noe Valley their homes.
Named for José de Jesús Noé, the last Mexican alcalde, or mayor, of San Francisco, the majority of development in Noe Valley took place at the end of the 19th century and beginning of the 20th century. Small wonder, then, that the neighborhood features many of San Francisco's trademark Edwardian- and Victorian-style homes.
With its beautiful weather, single family homes and cute boutiques on 24th Street, it's easy to see why so many San Franciscans, including singles, new and established families, and empty nesters alike, flock to Noe Valley.
Catering to such a diverse neighborhood population, Noe Valley offers a variety of year-round things to experience, including:
Much of the old and new of Noe Valley can be seen in the stores along 24th Street between Castro and Church. Check out Wink, Rabat, Ambiance, Shoe Biz, and Just for Fun.
Weekends bring crowded sidewalks packed with residents taking every advantage of all that this neighborhood has to offer. Testament, if ever any was needed, to the fact that Noe Valley is an incomparable place to live.

BRUNSWICK, Maine (from a Bowdoin College press release) - The Bowdoin College women's soccer team scored a pair of second half goals and survived a late rally by Brandeis in a 2-1 win on Saturday afternoon. The Polar Bears improve to 2-1-1 with the win while the Judges drop to 2-4-0 on the season.
Brandeis controlled the pace of play for a good portion of the opening stanza, taking seven of the game's first eight shots. Bowdoin made a late push as Ellery Gould had a trio of great chances just miss the mark, including one that hit the post late in the first half, sending the game scoreless into intermission.
Bowdoin scored twice in a span of 9:26 midway through the second period to take control of the game. Stacie Sammott put the Polar Bears on the board at 59:46, finishing off a bouncing ball in the box. Gould gave Bowdoin a crucial insurance goal at 69:12, finishing off a nifty centering pass from Amanda Kinneston to make it a two-goal game. The tally moved Gould to within two scores of tying the program's all-time goal-scoring mark.
Brandeis cut into the advantage with less than seven minutes remaining when rookie Sapir Edalati (Great Neck, N.Y./Great Neck South) accepted a long, low cross from classmate Corinne Bortniker (Chappaqua, N.Y./Horace Greeley) and tapped it inside the far post at 83:31. The goal snapped a three-match scoreless streak for the Judges, but they could get no closer. Bowdoin's Louise Johnson made five saves in net to seal the win. Rookie Michelle Savuto (Ridgewood, N.J./Ridgewood) had two goals and four saves, playing the first 73 minutes in goal for Brandeis before giving way to junior Francine Kofinas (Dix Hills, N.Y./Half Hollow Hills West), who allowed no goals and made two saves.
Bowdoin's win continued the see-saw rivalry between the two schools since they resumed playing in 2005 after a 12-year break. Since 2005 the teams have traded wins each season with Bowdoin winning in odd years ('05, '07, '09, '11) and Brandeis winning in even years ('06, '08, '10). Bowdoin holds a 6-3 edge overall in the series history.

Unverified Voracity Can Screenshot Forever
Unverified Voracity Can Screenshot Forever
Meta. Here's a screenshot of a blog taking a screenshot of itself:
I wish I had thought of that. That's UMHoops. After a season of coverage they're gently prodding people to click the donate button. I did, then checked my email to find that I had received a donation exactly the same size as the one I'd just made. I promise this will happen to you if you chip in.
If you promise to be gentle, I will gingerly shake your hand. Congratulations to wrestler Kellen Russell, who won the national championship at 141 pounds and was the primary reason Michigan finished 15th at the national championships. He beat Boris Novachkov—no doubt sent by a Russian oligarch to destroy democracy—of Cal in the final.
Russell went 38-0 against an insane gauntlet of opponents. The Big Ten featured five of the top six wrestlers in his weight class. Russell beat all of them, beat a bunch of them again in the conference tourney, beat a bunch of them again again in the national tournament, and finally defeated Russia's nefarious plans in the final. Statistically it's the best season in Michigan wrestling history even if it came by the slimmest of margins:
It didn't matter when he heard his ankle pop while he was tied, midway through the championship match and couldn't put pressure on his leg.
It didn't matter that it took Russell a combined four overtimes to advance through the quarterfinal and semifinal rounds, or that both wins came from the slimmest of margins — a meager 21 seconds of combined riding time, earned by being on top of your opponent.
Russell returns for another go-around next year.
We are talking about practice. Normally the start of spring practice would get banner headlines around here, but something something basketball something so here's this:
I was slightly disturbed by the bit where they run through the dong forest:
Whatever happened to family values? /boren'd
Draft tea leaves. Michigan had their pro day, during which Jonas Mouton showed relatively well and Martell Webb showed at 274(!) pounds. Commence retroactive Greg Frey assault, though:
G Stephen Schilling did pretty much what everyone expected in Ann Arbor. His athleticism, quick feet and pulling speed continue to entice NFL teams. He looked solid in positional drills, showing he can physically do what he will be called upon to do.
The one issue that showed up during his workout, something not unexpected from watching Schilling on film, was his shaky technique. He often bent at the waist and leaned rather than keeping his feet under him.
I'm not even mad. The Tennessee game was a crazy outlier, a 30-point blowout in which the winning team made no free throws and only attempted one. Surely you cannot find one Tennessee fan on the planet who is complaining about the refereeing in the aftermath. Surely this is the one game ever played in which everyone agrees that—
Tennessee is better than Michigan.
Yeah, I said it. Tennessee is better. It was obvious at the outset that Michigan could not guard Tennessee. They were too slow. They were guarding with their hands and fouling. We were getting past their defenders at will.
Then, about 10 minutes in, we were only up about 5 and we had completely outplayed them. I began to think we may have problems.
Then the refs took over. They called charges if Michigan's players even thought about moving their feet to establish position...which they never did. After four bogus charges (and one legitimate one on them that went uncalled), Tennessee changed its offense. UT no longer drove the ball. They settled or outside shots and pull ups. They missed. A lot. The refs had accomplished their mission. They single-handedly took Tennessee out of its offense. Then Michigan started hitting from outside.
Thanks to the above elements, Michigan went on a run. Tennessee got down. Then Tennessee quit. I'm not excusing that, but given the recent events of the past few days and given that it was abundantly clear from the officiating that UT would not be allowed to win this game, it's understandable. So a loss turned into a blowout loss.
Thank God college basketball is over. I won't watch another game in this tournament because it's ridiculously subjective and corrupt. I just don't know if I'll care enough to watch any of it next year. It's like scripted reality TV. Can't wait for football.
That is amazing. I love this man for posting this thing on the Tennessee message board that had the nice story about Beilein. He has proven beyond the shadow of a doubt that there is no possible game in which fans of the loser will not blame the refs.
Exit Pearl. Bruce Pearl has been fired at Tennessee for lying to NCAA investigators. There were some minor recruiting violations and one extremely minor violation of the bump rule, too, but if Pearl just says "my bad" in the room he gets away with a minor suspension a la Izzo/Calhoun. Instead he lies and then fails to report the bump violation and he's out.
Is this Tennessee doing a 180 from earlier in the year when they seemed determined to hold on to Pearl at all costs? It doesn't look like it. Fans are apoplectic. Wes Rucker tweeted that anyone who thinks Tennessee athletic director Mike Hamilton wants a new coach "is wrong"; that link contains one of those impossibly long and plausible-seeming emails that get batted around the internet but can never be confirmed suggesting the same. Meanwhile, FOX's Jeff Goodman says that UT's hand was forced:
Hamilton — according to sources — was recently informed that the NCAA would be coming down hard on Pearl and he opted to cut ties.
Add another notch on Bylaw 10.1's belt.
The obvious comparison is to Tressel, who voluntarily extended his suspension to five games as if his violation is on par with those of his players. Media still isn't buying this, especially if the suspension only applies to gameday. In Tressel's corner: he didn't lie to anyone's face and he didn't follow up his transgression with an otherwise minor violation that proved he'd learned nothing, then score another violation in March—ie, now. Not so much in his corner: Pearl's troubles stem from a minor recruiting violation acquired in the pursuit of a player he didn't actually get; Tressel covered up violations that made five important players ineligible through an entire season, failed to disclose the problem four separate times, and duped the NCAA into making them eligible for the Sugar Bowl. I think Tressel's violation is considerably worse than Pearl's but that could just be a zillion losses talking.
Here's one bet on supplemental. Notre Dame terrorbeast Michael Floyd got hit with something between a garden-variety and Kevin Grady "Mickey Mouse is a dog" frightening DUI, getting pulled over with a .19 BAC after running a stop sign. That would warrant a game or two suspension at most places. At Notre Dame they have some jackbooted bureaucrats called the Office of Residence Life who are like every evil movie dean ever, though. Pot possession? Gone for the year… or out for the Purdue game*. Drankin'? No big deal or season-long suspension.
Which will it be? Well, that last link may be the most relevant: TE Will Yeatman got booted for a year for being one of 37 underage ND students ticketed at a house party. He had picked up a DUI in January for driving down the sidewalk with a .11 BAC. Floyd has not one but two underage drinking citations in his past and by exceeding .15 BAC has been charged with a more serious version of drunk driving. If precedent holds Brian Kelly is going to watch his best player get suspended by the dread Office and head to the NFL's supplemental draft.
*[I could not for the life of me find definitive word on what Ragone got hit with, but the NCAA says he played in every game except ND's opener.]
Just screwin' around for pi day. It turns out Zack Novak doesn't know 62 digits of pi:
He does know more than you do.
Etc.: Jalen Rose makes it very clear for anyone who still has trouble parsing Jalen Rose's very clear sentences. Ohio State rabble-rouser Bruce Hooley gets insta-fired for his comments about Tressel, and my reaction is admiration—people in Ann Arbor itself still have to deal with miserable schticky losers, let alone Detroit. Eamonn Brennan says Michigan fans have a lot to look forward to. Boston College fans shipped to St. Louis as four seed UNH gets to play at home are on-board with ditching the current regional format. The Bylaw Blog argues that anyone with a problem with the NCAA should really look at the NBA and NFL for providing zero alternatives. Nebraska won't add hockey even though they've got a multipurpose arena opening in 2013. The culprit is the usual: Title IX, a law made in a different world. In this one 57% of college students are women.

Mrs. Crosby's Satchel is a dream to knit with, and a dream come true to wear! Once this single-ply fingering weight wool has finished its journey across your needles and makes its way to your blocking board, it has just one thing left to do - and that is to bloom with exceptional drape and pop with impeccable hand-dyed color!
Experimentation makes life interesting, dear, but temptation keeps it exciting. - Mrs. Crosby
