Week 4 did not do much in the way of clarifying anything in one region, but the other region is 75% of the way there. It's fairly indicative of the NA scene for this to be happening…as it happened in the Spring Split, and will probably happen in the Fall Split. This week was an opportunity for some teams to close out and seize their moment. Some did so. Others…did not.
Previously, on Tartarus and Valhalla: Week One | Week Two | Week Three | Week Four
Condemned to Tartarus
It's never easy to assign players to a week with Ixion, yet here we are once again. This week, the dishonor falls to Baskin (Luminosity – NA) and Wlfy (Team Rival – EU). Rather than split this section into what both of them did to deserve this ignoble award, they will be discussed simultaneously. Each saw their teams go 1-3 for the week, in weeks where even one more win would have secured them a spot at Valencia. Each committed the same sin – being consistently out of position and not being able to provide the mage/mid support their team needed in order to make strides. The decision-making around team fights and objective engagement was incredibly suspect. Using your ultimate for zone control can be fine, but when it's around an objective that needs the mage ult for confirmation? Less fine. Focusing on objectives is absolutely how you win games, but not at the expense of team, opponent, and positional awareness. A 4v5 followed by a 1v5 isn't quite the same as a 5v5, after all. Let's chalk this up to being an off-week for both of these mids, who have proven they belong in the discussion of best mids currently playing the game.
Enshrined in Valhalla
Unlike the above section, the two players dining with the Valkyries and the Einherjars are doing so for very different reasons. This week Adapting (NRG Esports – EU) and PolarBearMike (eUnited – NA) receive this honor.
While KDA isn't everything, it would be disingenuous to ignore Adapting's KDA of Week 4 – 44.5. The next closest a full 30 beneath him. His slashline across the set was 31/1/27. Holy jeez, what a beast. Adapting was not only in the right place at the right time, but was dictating the pace of the game, what objectives were controlled when, and when his team would engage. The Papis looked like this was their first game as a team, rather than a team that has been making strides and growing throughout the split. It was brutal, and it was all thanks to Adapting.
Funny enough, the player with the next best KDA was our other recipient this week, PolarBearMike. When a support's KDA is 14.5, you know he's either a selfish player like you haven't see, or is making all the right decisions when assisting his team. In PBM's case, it is definitely the latter. He's long been recognized as one of the theorycrafters and shotcallers in the professional community, and he's taken over that role from PainDeViande on eUnited, coupled with the co-shotcalling and decision-making of Varizial1. Thus far, it seemed as if the styles weren't meshing, outside of a Week 1 victory against a new-roster Team Eager. However, Week 4 marked a turning point, as eUnited looked dominant against Luminosity in a surprise upset, and then took an expected set over Flash Point in a set that allowed them to just cruise. The team image for the week could be described as "methodically aggressive," as the team just won team fight after team fight, and picked their objectives very well. The team just ran like a machine, and PolarBearMike was the engine. It remains to be seen if this is the new normal, but no one can deny it was a great week.

After lunch at a local restaurant in Bago, we continue 3.5hrs/110km to Kin Pun base camp to change our mode of transport to an open truck. The ride is shared with local pilgrimage makers for the next 11km to Yathetaung base camp, located 500m below the summit ridge. From here you can talk a walk up to the top (1 hr) or stay on the truck to drive up.
The Golden Rock, or Kyaiktiyo as the Burmese call it, is a fascinating sacred boulder covered in gold leaf and balanced precariously on the edge of a cliff. Crowning the boulder is a small shrine believed to contain Buddhas hair relics, the source of the gravity defying magic. A continual stream of pilgrims from Myanmar and Asia come to witness the wonder at least once in their life time.

We enjoy traditional Burmese lunch at a nearby local restaurant (own account).
Probably the most beautiful cave is Saddar Cave. We walk through an entire lime stone mountain range. Especially the caves stalagmites and stalactites are incredibly beautiful. Fortunately we don't need to return the same way. A traditional wooden boat is taking us under the lime stone range back to the car park.
If time permits we visit the bat cave, where more than thousands of bats come out every night to find food. The sky is darkening and it is said they fly as far as Mawlamyine to still there hunger. Lunch and Dinner are to your own account.

This Death Railways was started in May 1943 and official opened on 25th October 1943. The newly erected war Railway museum is well worth a visit.
After Lunch we leave for Ye.

Just a few miles after Dawei we visit the Shin Mok Hti pagoda, which can be dated back to 1438 and houses original pieces of the bodhi tree.
Our drive takes us through tiny villages. We will stop every now and then to discover the daily lives of the rural community. Before we arrive in Myeik we will take the old ferry crossing, which is a great photo opportunity (seasonal). Lunch along the way in a clean local restaurant.
We reach Myeik in the afternoon. Already in the early 17th century the East Indian Trading Company were unloading their ships at the ports of Myeik.

Most of the goods would go inland and from there up to Tanintharyi and further on to the old capital of Siam Ayutthaya. We will talk about its incredibly interesting history. "BEIK" as the locals call there hometown produces everything for the fishing industry what is needed. Have you ask yourself where all the ice comes from to keep the seafood fresh?
The pearl industry is another of Myeik's local specialties. How difficult it is to cultivate them will be explained at the Pearl Trading Shop, which is run by the same family for over a hundred years.

Before Kawthaung established itself, Maliwan was the main port in the most southern part of Myanmar, but the shores were too shallow for the big ships. So Kawthaung was founded in the late 19th century about 25 Miles to the south.
We will visit the famous King Bayinnaung statue, which is greeting visitors from the cape. It is said he was very much accepted in Thailand for his policy to leave the country ruling be his own King. Bayinnaung only demanded loyalty. Nearby Victoria Point is the most Southern Part of Myanmar and a great photo opportunity.
Our next stop is Mali Wan Waterfall. The all year waterfall and its park is a great place to have our have traditional lunch.

The Benefits And Effects Of Vitamin D
Table Of Contents
Why Everybody Should Be Taking Vitamin D
Known as the sunshine vitamin, Vitamin D is considered to be one of those essential vitamins that are crucial to our well being.Generally its levels are maintained by exposure to the sun, although it can be found in small amounts in certain food groups such as fish, eggs and some dairy products.
Vitamin D is essential for strong bone growth, improved moods, strength, improved fertility and sex drive and much much more. It is generally considered to be very healthy and has anti cancer properties.
A fat soluble nutrient, it is one of a group of 24 micronutrients that are essential for our survival, it is thought to reduce the risks of certain cancers, diabetes, heart disease and diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis.
Vitamin D comes from cholesterol, its production triggered from exposure to the sun, the amounts generated does depend on the actual level or intensity of the UV which is generally only of 100% sufficient strength in areas on and adjacent to the equator.
Shortfalls in Vitamin D Are more common in those with darker skin as these skin types have a greater resistance to the absorption of UV.
The use of sunscreen also has a marked effect on the ability to absorb and produce Vitamin D
How Much Vitamin D Do I Need
The minimum daily requirement of Vitamin Di is considered to be between 400 and 800 IU (international units) per day..
The recommended requirement per day really depends on where in the world you live (especially in relation to the equator) and the daily levels of UV exposure.
As an example it is suggested in northern Canada for example that you should take 4000IU per day, further south in the USA, this reduces to just 2000IU.
Research has shown that a safe maximum can be up to 10,000 IU with doses of 20,000 IU and over possibly toxic.
For the most of us,a daily supplementation of around 2000 IU is sufficient for most needs.
Of the differing types of Vitamin D, most experts believe that it is Vitamin D3 that is more effective and absorbed better in the body
Vitamin D3 Is also know as Cholecalciferol – a name commonly seen on the ingredient labels of supplement bottles.
Clinical Studies
Vitamin D3 is one of the few testosterone boosting compounds that has been subjected to some quite stringent studies and clinical trials
One double blind study involving 165 men saw the test subjects taking 3332 IU of Vitamin D3 per day, over the test period, these men saw a 30% increase in bioactive and free testosterone
The Uses And Benefits Of Vitamin D
Its probably easier to list what this crucial vitamin does not do..
Vitamin D has far reaching beneficial effects that help improve
- Longevity/Mortality
- Chances Of NOT Developing Cancers And Certain Medical Conditions
- Testosterone Production
- Vitality
- Sex Drive And Fertility
- Muscle mass And Strength
- Cognitive Function
- Depression
- Heart Health
- Body Fat
Should I Include Vitamin D in My Daily Supplementation
The answer to this is a resounding YES.. its effects are far reaching (especially if you are suffering the effects of low testosterone) and is something that everybody should be taking on daily basis.

Good morning!
Good Stock is taking a little trip to Spain this week. When Chef Dave and I talked about Spanish cuisine, we kept coming back to "use a few, high quality ingredients, cook them well." That's typically our MO, but even more so this week. We'll be serving our Roasted Red Pepper Soup which is inspired by the Calçotada, a festival of roasting green onions and sharing wine & cider with friends and family. We are also doing a Moorish-style soup of Chorizo & Chickpeas. Lastly, we'll be serving an Ensalada Mista, a variety of fresh and pickled vegetables served over mixed greens. Take a little trip without leaving New York!
Catering by Good Stock
If your office ever has a need for catered lunches, I'd love it if you considered Good Stock. Our large format soups and salads are a great way to please a wide group of coworkers (even the picky ones). We have a variety of options that are perfectly suited for the summer weather. And we're also now offering the option of a salad bar. Which is like a traditional salad bar, if that traditional salad bar was awesome. If you'd like more info, please shoot a note to me at email@example.com.

He had me close my eyes and walk into the bedroom. "I have a gift for you. Keep your eyes closed." I feel my way into the room, fingers extended, and then sit up on the edge of the bed.
"Keep your eyes closed. Listen to me describe it first. This is what I want to tell you."
"Hear. Write. Speak. The book press is a reminder of the writing work you do together with God–and the importance of it, in His mind. He made you to write–to make physical books and digital goods. And He wants you to know how proud He is of your writing and how happy it makes Him to work alongside you."
My chest tightens, tears filling my closed eyes.
"Now open them."
Before me is a book press–black iron, heavy plates. Copies of Breathing Eden pressed in between. These are the words God and I wrote together. The stories He showed me. My attempt to write down the pictures I saw in my mind.
Of this woman. And this woman. Their faces, their hands. Their voices, their prayers.
I did my best, one word at a time, to describe what I saw, to transcribe what I heard them say.
The conversations, though, are just the jumping off place for us, the readers. The conversations are the beginning of our invitation. I pray the conversations in between these women and God make us hungry for light, fresh air, and new things in our own lives.
We know there are conversations God wants to have with us, right now.
Isn't that awesome?

A quick & easy Easter Egg Wreath craft that anyone can make! Add a festive touch to your front doors in minutes!
Such a cute & clever way to use those extra plastic Easter eggs that you might have around the house or in your holiday storage!
The Easiest DIY Easter Egg Wreath
I think I've mentioned before that I'm not exactly a craft whiz. However, while on a walk this morning with my youngest daughter, I found inspiration for this Easter Egg Wreath!
One of our neighbors had a festive Easter wreath on their front door. I hang wreaths for every occasion: Christmas, Halloween, 4th of July, etc., but I didn't have one for Easter!
Then I remembered a bunch of extra plastic eggs my mother-in-law had brought over last year and I had stuffed in the hall closet. And for some reason we had a couple metal wreath frames in the closet too. I started getting more and more excited as I thought about it — I had extra pastel pipe cleaners…and a hot glue gun — surely I could put something together!
Related: Easy Last-Minute Easter Party Ideas
Here is all you need to make this super-easy DIY Easter Egg Wreath:
I've included shop-able ad links for your convenience in finding the items used to create this Easter egg wreath; read our disclosure policy here.
I already had most of these items on hand, but it should only cost about $15 to purchase all of these supplies. (Thrifty is always a plus for a craft too!!)
How to make an easy plastic Easter egg wreath:
First, I glued the eggs to the wreath frame with the widest part of the eggs touching each other and the pointy side facing outwards.
TIP: Before I glued anything, I arranged the eggs in a pattern so I wouldn't accidentally end up with two of the same color next to each other — I had a limited number of eggs since I was only using what I found in storage.
Next, once all the eggs were attached (and glue dried), I decided to jazz up the wreath with some pipe cleaners. I played around with it until I had created some faux bows. Here's how:
Slide one pipe cleaner under the wreath.
Cross the ends of pipe cleaner and twist twice to keep in place.
Slide a second pipe cleaner under the wreath and fasten the same way by twisting.
Fold the ends of the second pipe cleaner in to form a "bow."
Twist the first pipe cleaner over the ends of the bow to secure.
Lastly, I trimmed the ends of the pipe cleaners so they didn't stick out quite so far and tied on a ribbon bow for a finishing touch.
Couldn't be easier!
I'm so happy with how my first DIY Easter Egg wreath turned out! (Especially since it was easy and free!)
This would be such a fun Easter craft to make with the kids (just be sure to help or supervise with the glue gun).
Update 1/2018 – We've had our Easter egg wreath for three years now and it still looks great! I'm impressed how well this craft held up over time – we use it every spring!

When you've spent a few too many meals indulging in tequila and refried beans, head to Cynthia's for fresh, vegetable-heavy salads and light fish dishes. It's also an especially good choice for vegetarians and vegans, who sometimes have a hard time finding dishes they can eat on Mexican menus. The seabass and guacamole are both must-orders, and there's a lovely market on the side if you'd like to do some cooking of your own.

Unemployed Melbourne city councillor Stephen Mayne, who does not live or own property in the inner-city municipality nor maintain business premises within it, as he is required to do so, is under a corruption cloud over his abuse of the free-lunch policy at the Melbourne Town Hall.
Concerned ratepayers are understood to be making complaint to the Independent Broad-based Commission Against Corruption about Mayne's dodgy enrolment at the election and his abuse of entitlements for private benefit.
Mayne, a once notorious and friendless internet slagger who these days suffers from relevance deprivation syndrome, was accused by former Crikey partners of defrauding them when the "business" was sold to millionaire publisher Eric Beecher, found himself elected to the CBD-based council last year by fluke and, sources say, has had his snout – and trotters – in the trough ever since.
Few ratepayers realise the Melbourne councillors have a practically unlimited amount of restaurant-quality meals and unlimited alcohol supplied to their offices by request over the phone. These are described euphemistically as "internal sustenance arrangements." A daily menu is provided in the councillors' suite and is usually lovingly pored over by Councillor Mayne and occasionally others.
Melbourne city councillors for the most part – usually busy and productive people working other jobs – do the right thing with this entitlement. They use it sparingly.
No other public official gets freebie in-house meals. Has Mayne's corruption of this perk cost Melbourne councillors their free lunch?
Mayne, who is currently unemployed other than occasional low-paid speaking gigs and "work" at the Shareholders Association which they immediately regretted giving him and have now determined to flick him from, is well known among appalled Council officers to be "massively" rorting the free-meals entitlement.
It is believed that Mayne principally relies on his $40,000 council honorarium as a principal source of income and avoids buying any meals for himself, making the fullest possible use of Council a la carte catering and a long series of invitations to anything, once he's clarified a free and lavish meal is on offer.
Sources familiar with the situation explain that Mayne is not only a council lunch-a-lot but he is also an enthusiastic practitioner of the takeaway scenario, taking back to his outer suburban Templestowe pile, to long-suffering wifey Paula and brats as much freebie food, including smoked salmon, gourmet beef cuts and pastry delicacies as he can carry. The efficiency dividend has yet to hit the Town Hall's provision of lavish meals to Councillor Mayne, wags say.
Regularly taking ratepayer-funded food and beverages home in this manner could be argued to constitute corruption under the IBAC laws or possibly theft under the Crimes Act. Unfortunately for Mayne, closed circuit vision of such activities are retained by council security. Some see his rorting as all the more ironic given his corruption claims against councillors on the Manningham council, from which he resigned in disgrace after being referred to a councillor conduct panel over his allegations, and the Melbourne council which he slammed as full of campaign finance and entitlement rorters before the last election.
The council – which has not yet released councillor expenses for the newly elected council – has not routinely released data relating to councillor or officer use of the Council kitchens, outsourced to an up-market catering company that provides its services to those hiring Council facilities and to the Council itself.
VEXNEWS understands the council's own in-house catering bill runs into hundreds of thousands of dollars. Other than Mayne's greedy abuse of the generosity, we make no allegations of wrongdoing in relation to other councillors or officers at this stage.
Bet he gets regular gig on the abc's woeful 24 as some political doyen of knowing nothing.
Bruce should thank John Howard for running a very prosperous economy and everybody was doing well(lots of jobs and overtime)so they kept on voting for the labor run states.
The labor party thought otherwise that HawkerBritton was a genius and it was their strategy that labor kept on winning elections.
but I got to give it to Bruce he knew all along that this was not the case and sold out.
Stop picking on Bruce hes only trying to make a buck like the rest of those political journos on the take,that spew all that crap every day.
A name change to Arbib Britton sounds about right.
Or perhaps Shorten Britton?
Farrell Britton?
Naaah. What about Orkopoulos Britton?

Another Chusquea new to the U.S., growing about 25′ tall and 1¾" inches in diameter with exceptionally long branches at 3-4½ feet. This plant is very big with an airy look, a delightful specimen plant but too open for screening. Shoots are pink-red and grow FAST! Culms stay wrapped in their sheaths for a longer time for an interesting look. Works well against a clear backdrop or standalone. Open clumper that "looks" like a runner!
Fun fact: Unlike most other bamboo/grass species, Chusquea genus canes are SOLID all the way through!

Joe Henderson – Black Is The Color
Posted by dOk | Filed under 1972, Jazz
Black is the Color (of My True Love's Mind): the holy effin' grail of this era. Core tracks recorded by Cables, Holland, & DeJohnette, then extensively overdubbing, including David Horowitz' synthesizer, George Wadenius' electric guitar, Airto's percussion, & even a turn from DeJohnette on electric piano. From the opening cut, the 12 minute "Terra Firma", you know you've died & gone to Kozmigroov heaven. Very similar to Miles of this era in terms of sonic overload, but more intricate & complex overall. But it grooves like a motherfucker, too! Great beyond words. "Vis-a-Vis" is the only straight cut (no overdubs), but it just serves to nicely link to the past & show what a smoking session they had to play w/in the studio! "Foregone Conclusion" is a nice hard funk cut, intensely soulful, that quickly heads out into the stratosphere w/distorto-sax & electrobleepage aplenty. "Black is the Color" is a pretty, layered ballad w/plenty of intense peaks; but proves to be the calm before the storm that is "Current Events". It starts w/some spooky electronic atmospherics & rain jungle percussion, some excellent quizzical bass soloing from Holland plays against the increasingly wild analog synth washes & pans, then Henderson comes in echoing & raging & everyone plays beautifully off of each other up to several stunningly wild finales. One of the peak musical events of my life.

In this work, power supply noise contribution, at a particular node on the power grid, from clock/power gated blocks is maximized at particular time and the synthetic gating patterns of the blocks that result in the maximum noise is obtained for the interval 0 to target time. We utilize wavelet based analysis as wavelets are a natural way of characterizing the time-frequency behavior of the power grid. The gating patterns for the blocks and the maximum supply noise at the Point of Interest at the specified target time obtained via a Linear Programming (LP) formulation (clock gating) and Genetic Algorithm based problem formulation (Power Gating).

|Kindergarten kids in Tonglu county, Zhejiang province enjoy their first soccer lesson under the guidance of a professional coach in September. [China Daily/Xu Junyong]
Extracurricular classes or private supplementary tutoring is growing around the world particularly in China. Normally, in major Chinese cities, children have two or three extra lessons outside school. Parents in China pay much for their children to be tutored as they may feel inadequate if they do not help their child succeed in every way. However, it does pile economic pressure on parents and increase study burden of pupils. Are extracurricular classes necessary for students in China? Forum readers share their opinions.
Seneca (Expat in China)
Many of the parents of these pupils lack higher education themselves. They have too high ambitions for their own children. They are not intelligent enough to distinguish between chaff and real education. They have a purely quantitative idea of education. Their children will be disadvantaged in real life with this pseudo-education imposed on them by their parents.
Huaqiao (China)
Supplementary lessons must be catered to the child's talent. Don't just follow the crowd blindly. Be specific and this will benefit the child better and will not waste time and money. In the future, academic qualification may not be as important as skills-based or specific knowledge-based education. What parents must do is to find out what the child is talented in and help the child develop this talent. With natural talent, one is able to perform better and keep a job in the future.
Boilermaker21 (US)
Frankly, I am shocked at how physically weak many Chinese kids are. They are very intelligent, but they can't walk 400 meters without complaining about how tired they feel. I think the kids today are pretty spoiled. I am sure that 30 years ago, these kids would have to walk or ride a bike everywhere.
MisterPanda (France)
Extracurricular activities, yes, but only if the child shows interest in it (but you should not let the child drop the class after one or two lessons if he/she said he/she wants to attend, then he/she has to understand the meaning of commitment).
Dracarys (US)
It's part of some teacher's responsibility too and parents fears that their child is learning less than other child who sign up for extracurricular lessons.

WHYY produced two videos highlighting Night Market Philadelphia, a seasonal, roving event that showcases the local food truck scene, supports local entrepreneurship, and is "revitalizing Philadelphia's communities." Check out the videos here
Karima Rose, Director of Grants and Operations at The Food Trust received the Minority Business Leader Award from the Philadelphia Business Journal and presenting sponsor Wells Fargo.
Award winners are leaders (corporate or non-profit) of ethnic backgrounds with high levels of responsibility at their companies - such as presidents, vice presidents, CFOs, partners or people in charge of a business unit. Awardees also play a strong leadership role outside their jobs and serve in industry associations or community organizations.
Yael Lehmann, Executive Director of The Food Trust, received the Urban Leadership Award from The Penn Institute for Urban Research (Penn IUR). The award celebrates exemplary leaders in the effort to build resilient, food-secure and livable cities. The Penn IUR Urban Leadership Award is awarded annually to urban leaders who have made outstanding contributions to urban scholarship and to building cities that successfully respond to the challenges of the 21st Century.
Other awardees included: Joan Clos, Executive Director of UN-HABITAT and former Mayor of Barcelona, Spain and Ridwan Kamil, Founder and Principal of Urbane Indonesia.
Dr. Sandy Sherman, Director of Nutrition Education at The Food Trust, was the recipient of the Catherine Cowell Award, established in 1993 to honor Dr. Catherine Cowell's contributions to the field of public health nutrition. This award recognizes individuals who have exemplified excellence and achievement in administration, planning, mentoring and team building in public health nutrition, including meeting the special needs of urban populations and young children.
A new study by the Philadelphia Department of Health is one of a small but growing series of studies that point to the first signs of declining rates of obesity among children. Declines were seen citywide. Despite its own economic challenges, Philadelphia was able not only to achieve an overall decline in obesity but also to make the largest improvements among African American male and Hispanic female students.
Notably, the study doesn't credit one program or policy as the hero of this success story. Instead, it suggests that Philadelphia's comprehensive approach to obesity prevention - a combination of increased access to healthy food, nutrition education and exercise - may be responsible for the reversing obesity trend.

Why do I say this?
It comes down to this, "You get what you pay for". As a professional web hosting review expert I have compared and reviewed many different business web hosting companies and I can tell you this, you will NOT make money with free hosting. Free hosting accounts limit the amount of bandwidth and disk space that you can use; also most free business web hosts place banners and ads all over your site and your site will become cluttered and will lack professionalism.
Cheap Web Hosting Works Great!
If your searching for free business web hosting it is obvious that you are working with a small budget; if this is the case you can still get QUALITY web hosting for VERY cheap. Business web hosting providers such as HostMonster or LunarPages offers business web hosting for only $4.95/month and it includes unlimited bandwidth and disk space. In all honesty you are better off paying the sixty dollars a year for professional web hosting, especially if you are looking to make money.
So forget free business web hosting and check out HostMonster, you will not regret your decision. If you want to learn more about HostMonster you can check out AlreadyHosting.com's HostMonster Review.

Razorbacks in the Hunt for Program of the Year
NEW ORLEANS – Coming off arguably their strongest year of competition since the program's existence the Arkansas women's track and field team have carried their momentum from 2015 into 2016. The Razorbacks are one of the five best all-around teams in the nation competing for the Terry Crawford Women's Program of the Year award following their outstanding efforts at both the NCAA Cross Country and NCAA Indoor Championship.
The Terry Crawford Women's Program of the Year Award is named after USTFCCCA Hall of Famer and former Cal Poly head coach Terry Crawford. Crawford has won five NCAA National Championships, and over 20 Conference Championships. Her 1986 Texas squad remains as the only NCAA women's program to ever win the Triple Crown (cross country, indoor track and field, and outdoor track and field titles).
Teams must qualify for each of the NCAA Championships to be considered for the award. Points are based on how a team finishes at the national meet (1st = 1, 2nd = 2) with the lowest combined score between the three seasons determining the award winner.
Through two seasons Oregon leads with four points while Arkansas sits in second place with 11 points.
Arkansas began its 2015-2016 quest for the program of the year at E.P. Tom Sawyer Park in Louisville, Ky. for the NCAA Cross Country Championship. Razorback phenom Dominique Scott earned her third cross country All-America honor while leading Arkansas to its 10th top 10 national finish (ninth). Scott was assisted by freshman Devin Clark placed second for Arkansas and 48th overall in her NCAA championship debut.
Moving off the course and on to the track Arkansas maintained its status as one of the most talented programs in the nation never dropping below No. 4 in the polls. Competitive in multiple events Arkansas proved to be particularly formidable in the pentathlon and the pole vault. The Razorbacks qualified six student-athletes (Taliyah Brook, Leigha Brown, Alex Gochenour, Payton Stumbaugh, Lexi Weeks and Tori Weeks) for the NCAA Indoor Championship who ended up accounting for more than half of the team's points in just those two events.
Lexi and Tori Weeks scored 13 points in the pole vault, during which Lexi Weeks broke the NCAA meet record with 4.63m/15-2.25 in one of the most exciting performances of the weekend. Pentathletes Brooks, Gochenour and Stumbaugh combined to score 15 points and put Arkansas in the history books as the first team to have three multi event athletes score at the national indoor meet.
Senior Taylor Ellis-Watson who accounted for 10 points at the NCAA indoor meet solo anchored the Razorbacks to a national runner-up finish with an outstanding leg of the 4×400-meter relay to earn her second silver medal of the weekend (400m and 4x400m).
Inching closer and closer to No. 1 with the change in seasons Arkansas expects to be one of the top contenders at Hayward Field in June. Confident in his team's transition to outdoor head coach Lance Harter fully expects Arkansas to challenge the defending champion Oregon Ducks for the final NCAA crown of the year.
NCAA Division I Program of the Year Standings
1. Oregon 4
2. Arkansas 11
3. Michigan 12
4. Notre Dame 13
5. Oklahoma State 17.5

But stealing a body right out of an Emergency Room on a Saturday night was pushing it, even for him. "Sir, what are we doing? I know you said the ambulance brought your cousin here, but they're never gonna release the body just like that."
"Come on, Bobby. Where's your sense of adventure?" He turned that brilliant, charming smile on her, which always meant he was about to get her into a shit-load of trouble.
Though the stairwell was deserted, they were both whispering. The space had the echoing quality of old concrete. "Y'know, when I signed on to study history with you, I always figured the dead people I'd be helping you investigate would at least have been buried first."
As she followed Dr. Kedward out into the E.R., she saw more flaking green concrete walls near this quieter end and a few doors - a custodian's closet, a supply room and a handicapped access toilet.
"Don't tell me you've never considered a bit of grave robbery in your wildest Indiana Jones fantasies," he said. He swore quietly in Russian when a tired-looking nurse appeared, a familiar phrase that she assumed was rude because he would never translate it for her.

My Dream
By Yolonda Reed
The most recent, apparently senseless death of another African American male has our community in an uproar. The shooting death of Michael Brown by Ferguson, Mo. Police officer Darren Wilson has ignited racial flames that always lay simmering just below the surface. We are doing a great job of killing ourselves with Black-on-Black violence, HIV/AIDS, drugs, etc. We don't need any help from our so-called enforcers of the law!
Yes, I said it – we are doing a fabulous job of genocide all on our own without the help of those sworn to protect and to serve us lending a hand. Undoubtedly this statement will upset some folks; well, the truth hurts, doesn't it?
I've heard so many Black men's grievances about the system and how hard it is for them to find a job, let alone a good job. I've witnessed the struggle of Brothers who have been incarcerated try and get reintegrated into society. I've seen the "By Any Means Necessary" mentality of putting food on the table that some men have resorted to for their families. In short, I've seen the good, the bad and the ugly – from a Black woman's perspective.
The most feared species walking the face of the earth is the educated Black man. Why else would white men spend hundreds of years attempting to break their spirits? Who else can endure the trials and tribulations, the back-breaking bondage and the inhumane atrocities?
They covet your most precious asset – the Black woman. They denigrate those they cannot tame.
They create laws to keep you bull penned. And they hide behind badges and kill.
According to a Nielsen Company study entitled "African-American Consumers: Still Vital, Still Growing," which was commissioned by the National Newspaper Publishers Association, the African American population is an economic force to be reckoned with, with a projected buying power of $1.1 trillion by 2015.
What I can't seem to understand is, with that much monetary power, why Black America continues to support those entities that don't support us!!! When was the last time Louis Vuitton, Tommy Hilfiger, Maserati, Rolls Royce, and Mercedes Benz (you get the picture) put some of the billions we spend with them back into our communities?
Wu Tang Clan says it best, "Cash Rules Everything around Me" Instead of making the rich richer; why not make our communities richer? Why not support those people who support us? If we keep our Black dollars in our Black community, we take nonviolent protest to a much bigger level without even raising our voices, let alone our fists! If we put our Black dollars back into our communities, we can become self-sufficient, not relying on others to take care of us. If we put our Black dollars back into our communities, nothing can hold us back.
That's my dream. What's yours?
