Scott Tedro's '69 Mustang
"Build me the nastiest, streetable, vintage-looking Boss 302 you can." Those were the instructions given to Kenny Maisano of Mascar Modern & Classic Autobody & Paint Repair by car owner Scott Tedro. He wanted the ultimate Boss 302, and Kenny delivered with this car, dubbed Mr. Nasty.
First off, this car is a real Boss 302, but the car's drivetrain disappeared a while ago, making it easy for Kenny to deviate from a straight restoration, to something more powerful and modern. He reworked the car from stem to stern, upgrading the drivetrain, suspension, and brakes to current supercar standards, and this Boss could easily hang with most new Corvettes, Porsches, and Ferraris. Yet it retains the iconic and beautiful lines of a '69 Boss. Save for the lowered stance and 17-inch wheels, the car looks stock. You know it's not with a twist of the ignition key, however. A sharp bark from the exhaust indicates more compression, more displacement, more cam, and more fun. Would you believe this engine is cranking out 661 hp? You would if you heard it run. Backed by a modified Tremec TKO600 transmission and a stout 9-inch rear, the rest of the drivetrain is up to the task of delivering the power to the ground. Peak power came at a stratospheric 8,000 rpm, but the engine is far from peaky. We followed Kenny as he drove the Mustang to our photo-shoot location. The Boss dealt with stop-and-go traffic without a single complaint. By bumping the displacement up to 360 ci, Kenny was able to use a big cam yet still keep low-rpm driveability, and the engine pulled away from stoplights without any bucking or 2,000-rpm friction disc-melting clutch slips.
Don't let our smooth-driving accolades fool you; this is still a wicked-sounding engine, worthy of the Mr. Nasty moniker. Kenny easily roasted the tires for our clichéd (yet always entertaining) burnout shot, and when he cracked the throttle on the way to our photo spot, we were left slack-jawed as the car rocketed toward the horizon. "Would you want to drive this car every day? I wouldn't want to," says Kenny. It does have a nasty disposition, but the point is you could jump in it any day and drive it anywhere you want. And it would be a thrilling experience every time.
Tech Notes
Who: Scott Tedro
What: '69 Ford Mustang Boss 302
Where: Costa Mesa, California
Engine: Starting with a Ford SVO engine block, Kenny Maisano built a potent, 360ci engine with an Eagle crankshaft, Eagle rods, CP pistons, and Total Seal rings. Kenny requested a custom-ground solid roller cam from Cam Motion. The specs are cool: 252/260 degrees duration at 0.050-inch tappet lift, and an impressive 0.750-/0.710-inch lift, ground on a 112-degree lobe separation angle. The lifters are from Isky, the pushrods are from Smith Brothers, and the timing set is from Ford Racing. The heads are a pair of Scott Cook aluminum "cheater" heads, which mimic the shape and casting contours of the stock, cast-iron heads. They contain stainless steel valves, measuring 2.19-/1.68-inch intake/exhaust. T&D shaft-mount rocker arms provide rock-solid valvetrain stability, even at this cam's high lift specs, while a set of Isky valvesprings and Manley titanium retainers mitigate the possibility of valve float at 8,000-plus-rpm engine speeds. The intake manifold is a vintage Gapp & Roush single-plane, topped by an 850-cfm Holley, enclosed in a custom-built airbox fed cold air directly from behind the grille opening. This combination made 662 hp at 8,000 rpm and 480 lb-ft torque at 5,600 rpm on the dyno at Westech Performance Group. Kenny Maisano machined and assembled the engine.
Exhaust: Ford Powertrain Application headers route the exhaust into a custom 3-inch system with Dynomax mufflers.
Transmission/Rearend: An evolution of the Ford's Toploader transmission, a Tremec TKO 600 was chosen for its durability and driveability offered by the 0.82:1 overdriven Fifth gear. A QuickTime bellhousing mates the trans to the engine, housing a Centerforce clutch assembly. Out back is a Currie 9-inch rear with 4.30:1 gears and Strange 33-spline axles.
Suspension: To modernize the Mustang's suspension, Kenny installed Total Control Products complete front and rear suspension, ditching the front strut-rod suspension for an improved upper and lower A-arm system. The rear leaf springs were shelved in favor of TCP's G-link trailing arms, and Vari-Shock coilovers are located on all four corners.
Brakes/Wheels/Tires: Wilwood 12-inch rotors are installed front and rear and are gripped by Wilwood's four-piston calipers. The wheels are retro-modern American Racing Magnum 500, measuring 17×8 and 17×10, front and rear. The tires are BFGoodrich G-Force 245/45ZR17 and 275/40ZR17.
Paint/Body: This Mustang was treated to a rotisserie restoration at Mascar Modern & Classic Autobody & Paint Repair. Not only did Kenny build the engine, he also painted the car with a custom mix of Acapulco Blue with a touch of blue pearl.

A closer look at the forensic science of fibers
October 8, 2012
|Associate Professor of Chemistry Doug Beussman '92 in his lab with a key component of his research: a shirt. Beussman and student researchers are looking for new ways to analyze fibers found in crime scene investigations.
A new grant from the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) will enable St. Olaf College students to conduct the type of forensic research seen on CSI or Law and Order in labs right here on the Hill.
Associate Professor of Chemistry Doug Beussman '92 received a $114,000 grant from the institute that he will use to work with at least six students over the the next three years on research involving the analysis of trace forensic evidence using isotope ratio mass spectrometry. The research aims to develop new ways to analyze fibers found in crime scene investigations.
Currently, when fiber or thread is found at a crime scene, only the color and the kind of fabric can be determined — neither of which is specific to a given shirt. However, the atoms in the molecules of the fabric can relate to where the material is from because the environment affects the pattern of isotopes. Different white cotton T-shirts have different isotope patterns and can be distinguished from one another. Connecting the T-shirt fibers found at the scene of a crime to the T-shirt of a suspect brings investigators one step closer to justice.
"A connection between the fibers would count as circumstantial evidence, and often times in court cases enough circumstantial evidence leads to a verdict in the case," Beussman says.
St. Olaf was one of 11 schools — and the only liberal arts college — to earn this grant from the NIJ. Beussman will select students for the project from a variety of majors based on their interest in fiber analysis or desire to pursue a career in the field of forensic science.
|A tiny strand of fiber is all that's needed for analysis.
Beussman's interest in pursuing fiber analysis research was sparked in 2009 when the National Science Foundation awarded St. Olaf College a $567,780 grant to purchase an isotope ratio mass spectrometer. Using this state-of-the-art piece of equipment and a grant from the St. Olaf Collaborative Undergraduate Research and Inquiry (CURI) program, Beussman and a student researcher were able to begin differentiating between cotton fibers in brands of white T-shirts.
Once Beussman began conducting preliminary research using the grant from CURI, he realized there was enough data to pursue the research on a larger scale. Supported by the grant from the NIJ, Beussman will now be able expand his fiber analysis research and work with even more St. Olaf students.
This grant from the NIJ will provide research stipends for two students each summer over the next three years. It will also provide any supplies needed, and it includes travel expenses for the research teams to present research at the American Academy of Forensic Science annual conference. The grant will also cover supply costs for other students who may want to work on the project as part of an independent research project during the academic year for course credit.
Earning this grant is only the beginning of Beussman's pursuit of fiber analysis. He plans to analyze more colors and different fabrics, and eventually he will apply for another grant to pursue research on plastic fibers with St. Olaf students. However, he has learned from his past research experience to keep an open mind regarding the path the research will take.
"Every time you do research, it opens up new questions and new opportunities," he says.

Update on Comet ISON from Mars
As an update to last week's blog post (Martian Encounter), the first images of Comet ISON taken from Mars have been released. Click on the image accompanying this blog post to see them in high resolution. But, even then, these are the kind of images that only an astronomer can love. Perhaps some explanation will help others to appreciate them as well.
As expected, these images came from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera of the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO). The rovers Curiosity and Opportunity also took images, but no detections have been announced. The rover images are routinely posted in raw form, and a discussion thread among astronomy image enthusiasts has been examining those in detail to try to spot Comet ISON.
The MRO images show not much more than a dot, but dots in astronomy can be really important. Remember that images of planets around other stars and of distant galaxies in the farthest reaches of the universe are similarly also just dots. Not to imply that Comet ISON rises to that level of importance, but rather to exemplify that the cutting edge of science is filled with such dot-like observations.
Here, the dot of Comet ISON shows the image did not capture much of the coma, the gaseous cloud surrounding the icy and rocky nucleus. Part of the reason is the exposure time of the image, and part is that Comet ISON is not as bright as expected. When you recognize that Comet ISON, at this time, is almost 200 million miles from Earth and only 7 million miles from Mars, these close up observations provide a great constraint on the overall brightness.
The size of the dot also helps constrain the size of the comet's nucleus. The resolution of the MRO images is approximately 8 miles per pixel. The nucleus has previously been estimated at sizes smaller than that, so the true size is hidden in the pixelation of the image. However, better estimates of the size can be obtained through deeper analysis of these shots.
More observations from Mars are ongoing, though the view from Mars will see less and less reflected light as Comet ISON passes farther inside Mars' orbit. These observations confirm, augment, and refine the size and brightness estimates. Generally, there is a somewhat pessimistic feeling that Comet ISON is not going to develop into a spectacular visual comet. But unpredictability is a hallmark of comets, and there is the important unanswered question of whether it will break up or survive its passage by the Sun. We do not yet know whether ISON will end in a bang or a whimper.

Since we are interested in the fundamental concepts of the calculus, producing a correct numeric result is not the primary measure of success. Instead, the process that leads to the answer will play an important role in all the materials you turn in on quizzes and exams.
A correct answer with an incorrect method or explanation will receive little credit, while a correct method with minor errors leading to an incorrect answer will receive more credit. Your ability to explain what you are doing will be taken into account in awarding partial credit; if I have to guess about whether you understood what you wrote, you will receive less credit. If you do not include an explanation of what you have done, you will lose points as well.
A correct answer with an incorrect method or explanation will receive little credit.
Many students feel that it is better to say something, even if you know it is wrong, in hopes of getting some partial credit; however, this really makes you look like you don't know what you are doing. It is far better to admit that you don't know how to do a problem and get extra help from me, either from explanations that I write on your homework, or from coming to see me during office hours.
If you can't do a problem, I will give you partial credit for saying "I don't know how to do this problem" provided you give a brief explanation of what you think it is that you don't understand; the better your explanation, the more credit you will get.
In high-school, the grading practice frequently is to start with full credit and take points off for things that you do wrong. This is not the way I grade. In general, I will award points when you say something that is correct and take off points when you say something incorrect, and provide a final score that reflects the level of understanding exhibited in your write up of the problem. If you say some good things and some bad things, you may end up right back where you started. It is to your benefit to think carefully about what you say.
I will try to write lots of comments on your work before I turn it back. You should remember that this is to try to help you understand where you have made errors, so if there is a lot of red ink on your paper, try not to take this to mean that you are a terrible math student or a bad person. It is my job to make these kinds of comments, and it is the only way to learn where you need to work harder. Because of this, I spend most of my time writing about what you did wrong, so you may not see as many "good jobs" as you would like to see, and it may seem that I'm picking on you. Remember that I am trying to help you understand where your work is the weakest.
My marks have the following meanings:
- When you say something that I was looking for, I'll put a checkmark next to it to indicate this. Lots of checkmarks is a good thing. Some students have told me that in their high schools a check meant a mistake; here it means that something is correct, so don't be confused.
- If you say something particularly well, or say something perceptive or beyond the material that I expected you to include, I'll say "good job" or "nice observation" or some such thing. I do not say this simply because you got a problem right, but because you did something beyond what I expected.
- If I say "OK" rather than giving a checkmark, this means that I'm accepting what you say only grudgingly. Usually it means that what you said is true but that you have not fully explained it, or that there are subtleties that you have not seemed to grasp. It may also mean that there is a better way of saying this, or a better reason to use. It may also mean that what you say isn't quite true, but is wrong for technical or subtle reasons, and I'll let it pass. You may want to ask me more about why what you did isn't quite right.
- If I put a red circle around the problem number on your paper, that means I have included a copy of your solution in the notebook outside my office as an example of a good solution for the other students to review. I will not include your name, but if you still don't want me to include your work in the notebook, please let me know, and I'll remove it.
As always, if you don't understand something that I've written on your paper, or if you can't read my writing, please come see me about it and I'll try to explain it.

I posted a similar message in a South Korea forum -- now it is here for your reading pleasure! I play drums and am interested in starting a band after this English teaching thing is finished. I'm not talented so I've put some effort into it; thus far during my time in South Korea I've practiced close to twenty hours a week for about six months. I intend to practice at least twenty hours a week for the next few years before going to India to study tabla or mridangam. I am looking for another drummer or percussionist, a bass player, a guitar player or two, and a keyboard player. Songwriters are of interest as well. Some of my favorite rock bands: The Grateful Dead, R.E.M., The Clash, Cornershop, Nirvana, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and Phish. Maybe less influential but worthy of mention: The Chemical Brothers, Fat Boy Slim, New Order, Zwan, Radiohead, The Beach Boys, and The Pet Shop Boys. Other styles of music I like: reggae, dub, soukous, highlife, son, Hindustani, Balinese gamelan, and James Brown (a category unto himself). I respect jazz and am actively trying to appreciate it more. I am an easy-going 30 year old male from the U.S. who might be willing to relocate if a promising situation with band members from another nation arises. Also, I am more interested in a good attitude and a willingness to improvise and try new things regarding music than any sort of "proper" musical background, which I lack. If you want to start a band and you think we might be compatible, or you just want to network, go ahead and write to me -- even if several years have passed since this message was posted. I am not a fan of the cult of incivility that seems to be popular with many of the foreign English teachers in South Korea, so if you do write to me please be nice. I will try to do the same.

Shakira defends explicit videos
Singer Shakira has defended her sexually explicit music videos, the latest of which sees her writhing around on a bed with fellow pop star Rihanna.
The Colombian musician said she likes to "take advantage of feeling sensual and feeling sexy".
"I think that is tremendously empowering and is not diminishing in any way," she added. "I feel that any woman who is in control, who is in touch with her femininity and sensuality, is a woman that is empowered."
The video to Can't Remember To Forget You featuring Rihanna has already been viewed more than 193 million times on YouTube and follows many others which have seen the singer cavort around in little clothing since she shot to worldwide fame with her hit single Whenever, Wherever in 2001.
In the interview with the Independent's Radar magazine, philanthropist Shakira - who gave a speech alongside Barack Obama at the Summit of the Americas in 2012 - said she does not feel that her sexualised image conflicts with her campaigning work.
Her Pies Descalzos Foundation has set up six schools in her native Colombia, providing access to food, education and psychological support to m ore than 5,000 children who have been affected by population displacement.
"I'm a multi-faceted woman, and person, like all women are - there's no black and white," she said. "We have shades of grey in the middle. And even many more colours that other people don't see.
"So, no, I don't think... that I put myself in any situation in which I am objectified."
Speaking of the US president, Shakira said she is a great advocate of his education initiatives.
She went on: "He's a champion on early-childhood development strategies. So I like the work he's doing, and I support it, and I realise that he's one of very few political leaders around the world that actually has early-childhood development strategies at the top of his agenda.
"He has appointed me as a commissioner to consult his administration on educational excellence for Hispanics in the US. We try to find ways to improve the education system for Hispanics in America, to achieve excellence.
"I have to do the best I can in my own work to represent my culture, represent the women of my country, of Latin America."

Electoral Advertising is a Women's Media Policy Nightmare
The author, who directs Media Equity Collaborative, demonstrates why super PACs and the corporate media controlling the airways pose a threat to fair media treatment for women.
What do super PACs swimming in money have to do with a gendered view on media policy? EVERYTHING.
"Donations to women-friendly PACs represent a mere fraction of the millions and millions of dollars being spent by ideology driven PACs," explains Siobhan "Sam" Bennett, president and CEO of Women's Campaign Fund and She Should Run. "I experienced horrific sexism and misogyny from the media when I ran for office."
Those ideology driven super PACs that Bennett describes are spending the lions' share of their budgets flooding the airwaves with runaway political advertising.
The Wesleyan Media Project, a watchdog group on political broadcast advertisements, released data on January 30 that showed "a more than 1600 percent increase in interest-group sponsored ads aired as compared to 2008." Candidate ads have dropped down to 56 percent.
During the Florida primary alone, Romney and his super PACs ran almost 13,000 advertisements across the state. Gingrich and his interest groups ran a very poor second, with barely 200 ads. It is not too hard to see how Romney took away the winnings. The Florida ads were just under half the almost 28,000 advertisements that had run by that time since the start of the campaign over three months ago. Through the Florida primary the political ads cost about $15,000,000.
With Super Tuesday around the corner this will only escalate. The New York Times explained in a lengthy article, "Fine Line Between 'Super PACs' and Campaigns," last Sunday that the firewall between the Super PAC and campaigns barely exist and the Federal Elections Committee is ignoring its own rules on coordination among these supposedly separate entities.
The GOP primaries are just the start of the national presidential campaign. Congressional races will glut the airwaves later in the year. They are expected to attract even more PAC support. And lots of that will clog local feeds of cable programs, a sphere not under the purview of the Wesleyan Media Project.
Now with birth control a hot button issue women will see further misconstrued views and loose "facts" in campaign ads about a basic concern in their lives for which they will have no recourse, and severely limited space to set the record straight. For women and girls the lack of serious presentation of gendered stories or women experts on broadcast continues to have dire consequences. Women are only 13.5 percent of guests on Sunday talk shows. That doesn't even match the 17 percent representation of women in Congress.
"Sunday talk show bookers tell me that it's not their fault that women aren't in relevant positions in the fields of politics and business that would make them desired guests on these influential programs, but that's a lie—maybe a lie producers are telling themselves, but a lie nonetheless," says Jennifer Pozner, the founder and executive director of Women In Media & News, which since 2001 has connected journalists with a national network of female news experts through WIMN's POWER Sources Project. Bookers also have access to the Women's Media Center sponsored SheSource directory of national experts.
All this unbalanced political media advertising results in a vast windfall for television and radio broadcasters. The broadcasters are the primary beneficiaries of these influence peddling PAC funds. Even though they use the public airwaves, it's the broadcaster's coffers that swell during election cycles. These are the very same broadcasters who can't get the story straight on Sistersong or fling misogyny at woman candidates.
"Our organization experienced great media failure; serious media failure," exclaims Serena Garcia, communications director for SisterSong, a national network of indigenous women and women of color organizations that work for reproductive justice. She describes how right to life groups installed 87 billboards around Atlanta, largely in African American neighborhoods, and asks, "How is it that the mainstream media, including the New York Times, ABC, CNN—that all interviewed SisterSong—managed to sideline Loretta Ross [SisterSong founder] on a topic for which she is the leading national expert?" The Times, for example, interviewed her for two days and still left her perspective out of the story.
The flood of super PAC money has many disastrous consequences to the democratic process. Truth, for one. One candidate's ability to outspend another 65 to 1, as Romney did winning over Gingrich in Florida, is another obvious example. But for women and people of color the fact that broadcasters' power is increased by these dollars is especially detrimental. The largesse for the broadcasters becomes a kind of defacto policy overarching the Federal Communications Commission and its persistent failure to address its diversity mandates from Congress.
Women own only 5 percent of television broadcast stations. Combined with the 3 percent ownership by people of color (both men and women), this means less than 8 percent of television stations represent 77.5 percent of the U.S. population. Looked at another way 92 percent of TV broadcasting is in the hands of white males who only represent 22.5 percent of the population. That is not diversity in ownership. When the FCC was first formed in 1934 and most recently in 1996 legislation, the FCC has been called upon to address this adversity.
In December a large coalition of women's organizations lead by the National Council of Women's Organizations urged the FCC to address women's media ownership issues. Two legal cases have remanded proposed rule changes back to the FCC specifically because the agency has failed to address diversity in ownership.
Repeatedly hundreds of organizations and almost a million individuals have urged the FCC to pay attention to community needs especially those of minorities and women. The FCC used its December meeting to once again submit rules to loosen media cross ownership without doing the homework on women's and minority media ownership that the Third Circuit Court, most recently last July, underscored in its decisions. The court has found the FCC rule change "arbitrary and capricious" because by the FCC's own admission its data collection on women and minority is sorely inadequate. The court has ordered the FCC to correct its data collection processes. New data is still not available for public review, yet they have proposed more rules changes.
Referring to another regulatory agency, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Kelly McMasters, author of Welcome to Shirley: A Memoir from an Atomic Town, told OnEarth blog: "Again and again, we're seeing the corporations that are supposed to be regulated take over the regulatory agency through money and politics." Is this why the FCC skirts around any head-on addressing of women's and minority ownership? With broadcasters' bank accounts burgeoning during the 2012 election cycle, they hold an especially large green cloud over the heads of the commissioners.
New public comments are due March 5th at the FCC on the new proposed rule changes.
The author, Ariel Dougherty, is celebrating the 40th anniversary of her founding of Women Make Movies with a talk at the New School in New York City, Monday, March 5, 7:30.

Sweetie is a gentle, affectionate, playful young kitty (6 months old) ready for a forever home. She has silky, medium-length gray fur, graceful long legs and lovely yellow-green eyes.
She came to the shelter as a stray, where she started losing weight for unknown reasons. After entering foster care it became clear that she doesn"t perceive kitty kibble as food and was ravenous for moist foods. Also, Sweetie was craving human affection. Now she is a healthy, happy, friendly girl looking for a forever home with someone who enjoys cuddling and playing, and who will feed her canned food mixed with her kibble.
Sweetie likes being pet and talked to, especially while sitting on a lap or chest (if her human is reclining), or while being held. She likes to be warm, and if a lap is not available she often sleeps near the heater, in a sunny window or under a fleecy blanket.
She also loves to play, especially the game of "fishing," in which a person flicks a pole to which a string is tied with a cat toy at the end. To chase that toy, she will hide and pounce, gallop and leap, race up a tall scratching post and jump off, and often will trot around proudly with the toy in her mouth after she catches it.
Sweetie is smart and sometimes asks for playtime by sitting or mewing politely by the cupboard where the fishing pole is kept (she is not allowed to play with it alone, because a cat can become dangerously entangled).
Sweetie would like a forever home where somebody has time to share affection and attention. She spent two weeks living with an energetic young foster kitten but he was too rough-and-tumble for her. She might enjoy a calmer cat for company, but she seems especially oriented to humans.
You can arrange to meet Sweetie at her foster home or at the shelter, by appointment. Adoption paperwork needs to be completed at the shelter.
If you are looking for a lost pet or are interested in adopting, becoming a volunteer or fostering, visit the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter or go online to www.scanimalshelter.org.
The Santa Cruz shelter, 2200 Seventh Ave., is open noon to 7 p.m. Tuesday-Friday and noon to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. The Watsonville shelter, 580 Airport Blvd., is open 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday and closed noon to 1 p.m. for lunch. Call 454-7303, ext. 0, for more information.

Help might be on the way for the Denver Broncos' 30th-ranked pass defense.
NFL Media's Gil Brandt reports the Broncos have expressed some interest in trading for Minnesota Vikings four-time All-Pro pass rusher Jared Allen with an hour remaining before the NFL's trade deadline.
Denver's interest comes just minutes after initial reports of a Seattle Seahawks push for Allen were debunked.
A Seattle source told NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport that any talk of the Seahawks' interest in Allen is "vastly overblown." The Vikings are hoping to be blown away by an offer or they won't trade him, Rapoport adds, via a team source.

We pointed out last week that the nearly $8 million remaining on Allen's contract made a trade unlikely.
Rapoport suggested 10 teams that could take on Allen without the defensive end having to restructure his contract. The Buffalo Bills, Carolina Panthers, Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns, Green Bay Packers, Jacksonville Jaguars, Miami Dolphins, Philadelphia Eagles, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Tennessee Titans all have enough cap space to take on a contract such as Allen's.
To pull off a trade, the Broncos would have to free up close to $1 million in cap space or get Allen to rework his contract.
USAToday's Tom Pelissero confirms that Allen indeed is willing to restructure his contract "for the right situation." We take that to mean he's interested in an extension as opposed to a paycut. As far as trade talks go, that's more of a Matterhorn than a molehill.
In other words, this is far from a done deal with the sands trickling through the hour glass.

2. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Melanie_Espina) Jul 12, 2007 9:31 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))I figured it out!!
I was running Adobe Reader Version 8. Once I uninstalled Digital Editions, uninstalled Version 8, and reinstalled Adobe 7, it worked fine. Just don't upgrade to 8 after that, and don't install Digital Editions.
3. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Ric_Wright) Jul 13, 2007 12:45 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Can those of you encountering this problem give us some details? We have been unable to reproduce this problem. Could you please answer these questions:
- What type of machine (Mac, Windows)
- What OS? What version
- Type of CPU?
- Have you recently upgraded or changed your OS?
- Are you a normal or admin user, or are you a managed user (e.g. you log onto a general machine on campus)?
Thanks, Ric Wright, DE Team
4. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Chris_Cottier) Jul 24, 2007 4:37 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Hi Ric
To answer your questions
- Windows XP Professional
- Dell Optiplex 320
- Recently bought by work several months ago
- I am part of a network at work where we share a server.
I am using Adobe 8 and as mentioned DE won't let me view books etc.
5. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Gia_Bercea) Jul 28, 2007 3:26 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))try looking for it in documents& settings > your user profile > Local Settings > Application Data
should be somewhere in there.don't remeber exactly because i already deinstalled digital editions
6. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Chris_Zeyen) Aug 3, 2007 11:13 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))There's another solution, if you don't want to uninstall Adobe 8.0. Just create a new folder "My Digital Editions" in your "My Documents" folder. The installer doesn't seem to have done that.
7. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Chris_Cottier) Aug 7, 2007 6:57 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Thanks Chris
That seems to have worked!! Simple yet very effective!!!

8. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(HansDF) Sep 1, 2007 9:39 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Indeed, that worked fine. I downloaded Digital Editions in Firefox on a Windows XP (Toshiba Qosmio - Intel CPU). Normal user. The 'My documents' folder is on a external drive E: Maybe that's the reason why it didn't create a Digital Editions folder.
Anyway, to the people of Adobe: If you give an error message like 'Cannot find the Digital Editions Folder' it would be better to tell us where this folder should be.
It's a good thing this forum was here.
9. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(kevin_hayward) Sep 21, 2007 4:36 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Same error message running on:
Windows 2K (SP4)
Adobe Reader 8
If one user (with admin rights) logs in get above error; any other user logs onto same machine (including those with non-admin) works fine. Have tried re-installing DE; still nothing.
User having problems appears to have all the same folders/permissions as other users. Very frustrating.
10. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Gintare_M) Oct 24, 2007 9:53 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))that is terribly, horribly annoying... i have spent three evenings after work trying to donwloan, uninstall, etc. adobe reader 7 and 8 so that i could read abode digital editions book.. but the not "could not find digital editions folder" still appears and apperas... i cannot say how angry i am with this terrible nonsence and waist of time.
11. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(kevin_hayward) Oct 25, 2007 12:07 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))We were trying to sort out this problem for staff at an NHS Education Centre and still couldn't get to the bottom of it; on some PC's it will work for some users, on others it won't. Absolutely ridiculous ... and no help from Adobe. Its cr*p software like this that causes us no end of problems, wastes extortionate amounts of time and makes us look bad infront of customers... and all down to the dreaded curse of DRM/Adobe.
12. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Ric_Wright) Oct 25, 2007 8:30 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Could the people encountering this problem please submit a support incident at www.adobe.com/support/digitaleditions/? Thanks.
13. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Gintare_M) Nov 15, 2007 1:52 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))hey Mr. Ric,
why did you delete my unhappy messages about Adobe digital editions? You also say to write you an email personally, to those who encounter problems..so i did write you an email..but no reply....
so how long it will last till you delete this my message in the forum too and appear as nothing wrong is happening/ you r solving the problem (which you don't)..
14. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Gintare_M) Nov 15, 2007 1:53 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))ok, sorry i see you didnt delete my previous message.. I'm just tired of trying to solve this problem all evening today myself...

18. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(AUDREY_DELANEY) Jan 24, 2008 2:41 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))I had the same message 'cannot find digital editions folder. I am at university, and kept being told my my library that the downloads would be in this folder, and like a number of you I did not have one. This must be an inherent problem with this software, however, once I made a folder in my documents everything worked fine - it just took three days to work out.
19. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Karen_Sanchez) Feb 2, 2008 11:57 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Because my "My Documents" folder is a shared folder it wouldn't work. I just created a My Digital Editions folder on my desktop and then moved the icon into it. When I tried to download the book it worked. Thanks for the help!

21. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions FolderJim Lester Feb 11, 2008 1:11 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Just a quick followup from those of you having the "Could not find Digital Editions folder". I have confirmed and fixed (in 1.5) the problem with having a "My Documents" directory on a network folder (either file server or a shared folder on someone else's computer). The problem was the code interpreting the permissions returned from Windows a bit more strictly than Windows Explorer does (being maybe too picky since were an internet accessible application which lead to the failure of creating the Digital Editions folder) - and not surprisingly the workaround reported here by Chris and Karen does indeed fix the problem in the meantime.
However, I am worried that there is another problem that I haven't found yet. Karen mentioned that her My Documents directory was shared as a reason for the problem. I haven't figured out how to make this problem occur on a single computer regardless of if the "My Documents" directory is shared or not. If anybody is having this problem please respond on the forum, or submit a support incident at http://www.adobe.com/support/digitaleditions/.

22. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(McGraw-Hill_Professional_Group_Tech_Support) Feb 11, 2008 3:19 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Jim,
I have a feeling that some users were getting this error simply because they were using non-ASCII characters in the path to where the folder should be. A high percentage of the users who emailed us with this error were from countries where you would expect this to happen.
23. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions FolderJim Lester Feb 11, 2008 4:21 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Thanks for the reminder. I've fixed the problem with Non-ASCII paths as well. Along with the similar IO Error #2038 on the Mac that was also caused by bad handling of NonASCII paths. All three fixes will be in 1.5.

24. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Christine_E_thel_Walker) Nov 21, 2008 1:29 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Hi all, I had this problem but a very helpful chap on the Waterstones web site talked me through it this morning.
Here goes:-
Make sure your Ebook is connected to the computer and that you have loaded eBook Library and then minimized it to the task bar
Click on Start
Then Search
Then All files and folders
Then type in My Digital Editions
Then search for this file
If you are lucky you should get a folder in this name
Open it and you should see your titles listed
Drag the title you want into either the library or the ebook reader and it should transfer it for you! Good luck.
25. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(ArvinderSharma) Nov 26, 2008 8:47 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Hi JimLester,
Thanks that you have fixed the problem but why in 1.5 when new version is 1.6 alerady launched and i am using 1.6.
There are other several issues i want to discuss on ADE because i am working for several world wide publishers across the world who are using ADE. Could I.
26. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions FolderJim Lester Dec 1, 2008 10:01 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Arvinder
If you are working with the publishers/operators your best bet would be to ask questions to the Content Server Support via email.

27. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(HansDF) Feb 15, 2009 4:42 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))New computer. New installation. Windows Vista. Unfortunately I get this message again. And creating a 'Digital Editions' folder in 'My documents' (= D: = another partition then the C: where Adobe DE is installed) doesn't help. Is there a workaround? Why is this problem after a year of development still occuring? Thanks for your help!
28. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(matzede) Feb 18, 2009 8:53 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))I do have the same problem, I've installed "Adobe Digital Editions" (German) on a "Windows Vista Business" (English) installation.
I keep getting the message "Digital Editions-Ordner nicht gefunden." (same stuff in German).
The folder "My Documents" points to a hard drive (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders\Personal = "X:\"), the user logged on has full control on this drive and I created the folder "My Digital Editions" manually in the "My Documents" folder (X:\My Digital Editions\). But the message won't go away? Seems to be the same situation as the poster in post #27, "My Documents" points to other partition/hard drive.
Is this a problem which Adobe didn't get under control in over a year now? Are there any ideas how I can fix this?
29. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Antoine_B.) Feb 21, 2009 12:08 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))I have the same problem with the error message "Could not find Digital Editions folder." and just can't figure out how to fix it... I created
C:\My Digital Editions\ and also D:\My Digital Editions\ and another one on the desktop but that did not fix the issue.. so I bought my book and can't read it.. anyone can help here? I'm using Vista Home Premium.

31. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions FolderBWolfe [ADOBE] Feb 23, 2009 1:32 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))We are under the impression that we resolved this in the 1.5 release of Adobe Digital Editions last year.
You should -not- have to create the "My Digital Editions" folders yourself. Those should be created when you install the program.
However, they would not be in the path you've noted. It would be inside your "My Documents" folder, not on the root of C or D.
This could be any number of path related things. Open a web support case at http://www.adobe.com/support/digitaleditions.
32. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folder(Antoine_B.) Feb 23, 2009 10:18 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))Thanks Bentley, I just opened a support case.. Hope it will get fixed soon so I can enjoy my eBook as opposed to going back to paper ;-)
33. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions FolderABarabasz Apr 10, 2009 7:30 PM (in response to BWolfe [ADOBE])
BWolfe said "We are under the impression that we resolved this in the 1.5 release of Adobe Digital Editions last year"...
Well, you're under very bad impression. You hadn't resolve this in 1.5, nor 1.6 nor latest 1.7 version.
As UniIFF said in other topic: Adobe is unable to code programs that accept any user configuration that Windows supports... Very sad, and very true...
In my case - as you can see in attachment screenshot - "My Documents" aka "Personal" is located directly on "E:" drive (because I like this way...).

I've got the same problem, have just downloaded and installed Digitial Editions and this error has popped up, even though I can easily find the folder manually, so I know it's there.
I'm using Vista Home Premium, and it's a standalone computer, on a small home network, although no one but myself needs it.
It's a pity to see that there aren't really any soultions that I've read that fix the problem.
Also disappointing that there isn't any other software I can use to read this e-book I've just downloaded.
35. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folderhey_man10 Jul 8, 2009 7:45 PM (in response to mdlgs)
Let me join the club. I also am running Vista Home Premium and am getting the same error. I have gone to every my documents folder and every documents folder and created a digital editions folder. It still does not work. I've been having this problem since 4/2009.
I opened a new case a few days ago and still have not heard from Adobe. I can't beleive that they have not corrected the problem since 2007 when this thread started.
36. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions Folderdat1959 Jul 10, 2009 6:43 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))
I downloaded this software a couple of days ago and am also having this issue. I've tried everything listed above to correct it, and I still continue to get the error. I checked the knowledgebase, and made sure I had write access to the folders. Nothing works. I get this message when I try to open Digital Editions, and also when trying to download books.
I am running Vista on a HP laptop, sole user, no network.
37. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions FolderSteenvos Sep 8, 2009 1:44 PM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))
Recently I had the same problem running Vista SP1. Documents folder was redirected to the root of another disk. Digital Editions cannot make or recognize a digital editions folder in the root . So I made a new Documents folder in the root and moved all the content to that folder. "My Documents"m is now not directing to the root of a disk anymore. And DE works!
38. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions FolderPolyneuron Oct 5, 2009 1:13 AM (in response to Steenvos)
Installed DE on two machines and have the same problem on both. Both running Vista (one Home SP2, one Ultimate SP1). Documents folder not in root, not moved at all on one machine. One machine has Reader 8, other does not have any flavour of Reader at all (because I was hacked off with this sort of thing I use something that WORKS). Installed and reinstalled from web and stand-alone versions (twice). This situation is appalling. I now have a £30 file that I cannot read and I very annoyed.
39. Re: Cannot find Digital Editions FolderLee555551 Nov 22, 2009 9:16 AM (in response to (Melanie_Espina))
Me too, same problem! Vista home premium SP2, Sony PRS505 reader, ebook library 3.0.0, digital editions 1.7.1. Every time I open it, it says it can't find the folder, yet it is there in the C: root directory the whole time, and indeed if I delete it, running digital editions promptly recreates it (empty), but still says it cacn't find it. Worked through all the suggestions here, no dice. Checked the permissions, firewall pass through, compatibility etc. No good. Tried putting a copy of the folder everywher, in My documents, in users, in users/documents, you name it. Given it full administrator permissions, nothing at all. Can't submit a web support case as suggested 'cos it wants my serial number and the instructions to get it from the splash screen on "about..." don't work. The Adobe support tech note says "Ensure that you have write permissions for the location to which you redirect the My Documents folder." but doesn't tell you how to do this!
This is ridiculous. Without a fix to this stupid problem you can't read any books you buy for the machine!

It's official. Sort of.
If/when cornerback Darrelle Revis passes a physical to be administered by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' doctors, Revis will be traded from the Jets to the Bucs, according to ESPN.
It's the culmination of various Sunday reports pointing toward that tentative conclusion. The Jets wouldn't have allowed Revis to travel to Tampa for a physical if a deal wasn't in place. Per the report, the deal includes (to no surprise) the 13th overall pick in the 2013 draft and (to no surprise) additional selections.
Lost in the various reports is the reality that the Bucs and Revis necessrily have a tentative deal in place on a long-term contract. Whether that agreement was negotiated with or without the blessing of the Jets is a fact that has been lost in the shuffle.
Regardless, this deal wouldn't be getting done without Revis knowing what the Bucs will be paying him — and without a clear understanding that Revis finds it acceptable.

50 Cent Dating Bodacious Model Tatted Up Holly [Photos]
50 Cent made headlines recently for his alleged fight with model Daphne Joy, but it looks like he's moved on to another bodacious model. The New York Post reports that the rapper is dating curvaceous bombshell Tatted Up Holly.
The video vixen is known for her coke bottle-shaped figure and various tattoos including a string of roses tattooed on her right thigh.
Recently, Fif and Holly were spotted canoodling at his VIP Room party where they uncorked champagne bottles of Dom Perignon with Michael Strahan's fiancée Nicole Murphy.
"It seems like they are getting serious," an eyewitness told the newspaper.
The duo might be celebrating their upcoming winter sports event, Big Apple Boxing, which takes place on Dec. 20 at the Resorts World Casino in New York.
The Queens native has been promoting the event, hosted by Tatted Up Holly, on his Instagram account. His last event was in September and it was a huge success.
As you can see in the video below Tatted Up Holly is a knockout in every sense of the word.
We're sure we'll see more of her in the upcoming weeks. In the meantime, enjoy the photos via her Instagram page.

Oriskany Battlefield Ghost Story – CNY Paranormal
This month the CNY Paranormal series is exploring personal accounts of the paranormal found throughout our region and contributed by those who have had the encounters. These ghost stories will send a chill down your spine and make you look at your favorite CNY haunts in a different light.
This week's account is contributed by Kate...
When I entered college, and left the protective nest of my parent's home, I soon realized one horrifying fact: I needed a job. Relying on my mother's connections, I obtained one working at a state historic site. This was a satisfying job, as my love of local history was encouraged at this position.
One summer, in early August, I was informed that I needed to help prepare Oriskany Battlefield for their annual remembrance of the Battle of Oriskany. I was required to work at the location for the day prior and the day of the anniversary, readying the location for the ceremony that was to occur.
The entire time I was working I felt that I was being watched. As I set up paper lanterns alongside the path that led to the memorial, I kept feeling like there was someone standing over me, watching what I was doing. Every time I would look up, though, I would never see anyone.
When it was time for the ceremony, I was asked to work late, just in case. The ceremony consisted of a procession of re-enactors dressed in uniforms similar to what the soldiers in the battle would have worn. It was a breathtaking sight to see this procession of men in patriot uniforms, as well as those in British uniforms, and members of the Oneida Indian Nation in their headdresses.
As I watched them progress, I thought that I saw my vision double. Instead of the maybe 50 people walking down the road, I seemed to see 100 or more. The night was misty, giving the men an eerie look, and I was sure that my mind was just playing tricks on me.
I blinked again, but the double vision still remained. As I looked closer, though, the extra men were not an optical illusion. They seemed weary, tired, yet resolute. Their uniforms were not clean, and they didn't look like they had eaten well in a few days.
I couldn't move, and I stood there staring, not believing what I was seeing. Soon the procession of the dead and the living passed me by, but that was a moment I never forgot.
Do you have a ghost story or personal paranormal account to share?

The everyday and ordinary don't apply in the world of Theatre Movement Bazaar.
One of L.A.'s most unusual performance companies, TMB has been wowing audiences here with haunting, humorous and often startling mash-ups of theater and dance, dialogue, music and multimedia since it moved here from New York in 1999.
The company's newest work, "The Treatment," based by TMB founders Tina Kronis and Richard Alger on Anton Chekhov's short story, "Ward 6," will be presented in collaboration with Boston Court Performing Arts Center in Pasadena, where the world premiere piece opens on Feb. 25.
Directed and choreographed by Kronis, with text by Alger, "The Treatment" explores the line between sanity and insanity, when a doctor in charge of a derelict mental hospital disrupts the societal status quo by engaging in philosophical conversations with an inmate.
"Ward 6," with its bleak and brutal aspects and great chunks of dialogue and introspection, may sound like a daunting prospect for conversion into movement-based storytelling, but "in the simplest terms, it's just the way we look at things," Alger said. "And 'Ward 6' struck us as being a fascinating look at how we all have masks that we wear, and theater is always using that device, so it became this interesting correlation between the art form and this kind of societal journey that we all take."
"Part of our process has always been to leave space for the physicality to come through," Kronis said. "There's a music score, a text score and a movement score that interweave and play and support each other. It's a game of chance as to which one is going to come to the surface in a certain scene or at a certain moment in the play. It also reframes the work, refracts it into different pieces.
"The way I see the piece is that it's all danced," she said, even the text and the interaction between the actors. "I see it all as part of the dance of the characters, of the story and of our humanity interplaying up on the stage."
The six actors who will play the demanding multiple roles are Mark Doerr, Jake Eberle, Nich Kauffman, Matt Shea, Jacob Sidney and Mark Skeens. The design team includes Ovation Award-winning Chris Kuhl (lighting), John Zalewski (sound), Jeff Webster (sets) and Ellen McCartney (costumes).
Theatre Movement Bazaar began in 1996 in New York City as a collaboration between Kronis, whose background is in classical and modern dance, mime and mask work; and writer-performer Alger, a former mechanical engineer.
Influenced by Eastern European forms of theater and training, TMG draws upon an eclectic range of literary targets and aesthetic references. About the company's Adam and Eve-inspired, "Monster of Happiness," the Los Angeles Times noted that the production combined "the movement discipline" of early 20th century Russian theatrical innovator Meyerhold "and the fluidity of the Soviet film constructivists."
LA Weekly dubbed "Strange Beliefs," based on the writing of August Strindberg, an "astonishing work of performance art," and called "Dry Cleaning" — a blend of espionage and Orpheus — "a flawless ballet of actors, video and erudite gags."
Other inspirations have been Robert Louis Stevenson ("Model Behavior, i.e., the Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde") and William Inge ("Cirque Picnique").
Chekhov, however, is TMB's long-favored source material.
The company has taken on "The Three Sisters" ("Chekhov's Sisters") and "The Seagull" ("SeaGull"). "Cherry Jam," commissioned by California Institute of Arts School of Theatre, was a perspective on Chekhov's "The Cherry Orchard." "Anton's Uncles," a deconstructed "Uncle Vanya," was first to garner top honors at the 2011 Edinburgh Fringe, with an Outstanding Theatre Award from FringeReview, which called the work "a stellar piece of physical theater."
"The Treatment" will be TMB's first-time collaboration with Boston Court, where distinctive, edgy and adventurous cultural explorations are a defining brand.
"It's a good fit for us," said Michael Michetti, Boston Court's co-artistic director. "When we're seeking a production for the theater, one of the ways we go about it is to ask artists whose work we love, 'What is it that is burning a hole in your gut? What are you dying to do?' And Chekhov is something that we are interested in as well."
"When you see a traditional production of a Chekhov play," Alger said, "they can sometimes be very serious and overly dramatic. We are taking that, bouncing it around a lot and trying to give it movement and energy and lots of humor, while letting the pathos exist at the same time."
"That's what Chekhov did so well," Kronis said. "He had an amazing sense of humor and an unflinching eye for human behavior. That can be devastating and hysterically funny at the same time."
So, while TMB's uniquely stylized Chekhov take may be unexpected, it shouldn't be distancing to an audience, Alger said. "We want to invite the audience in to engage with us. That's something we always hope to achieve."
LYNNE HEFFLEY writes regularly on theater and the arts for Marquee.
"The Treatment," Boston Court Performing Arts Center, 70 N. Mentor Ave., Pasadena. Opens 8 p.m. Feb. 25. Runs 8 p.m. Thursday-Saturday, 2 p.m. Sunday. Ends March 25. $34. (626) 683-6883. www.bostoncourt.org

During the first week of August a number of area rowers traveled north to race at the 129th Royal Canadian Henley Regatta, and two of them returned home with gold medals. Mount St. Joseph alum Samantha Brecht, representing Vesper Boat Club, took the gold in the senior lightweight eight and was runner-up in the Under-23 lightweight eight, and Chestnut Hill Academy grad Don Leatherwood was part of the winning Under-23 eight for another venerable Boathouse Row franchise, the Penn A.C. Rowing Association. Leatherwood's boat had also captured a gold medal at the U.S. Rowing Club National Championships, held outside of Indianapolis in the middle of July.
Rising Springside/CHA senior Jen Sager and Germantown Friends School sophomore Ethan Genyk also made the trip to the Canadian Henley, which took place on Martindale Pond in St. Catherine's, Ontario from July 31 to August 7.
Rowing for Vesper, Sager entered the Under-23 lightweight double, but had better results in the Under-19 double, where she won the eighth of 11th qualifying heats to reach the semifinals. Genyk's Fairmount Rowing Association boat, an Under-17 quad, was unable to advance out of the initial round of racing, finishing fifth in its heat.
Leatherwood, who graduated from CHA in 2009, will begin his junior year at Yale University next month. During the collegiate season this spring he rowed in the second varsity eight, which was the only boat for the Bulldogs to reach the finals at the Eastern Sprints. A freshman at the University of Pittsburgh last year, Brecht participated in the club program at Pitt, where rowing is not a full-fledged intercollegiate sport. Seeking more of a challenge, she has transferred to the high-powered crew at the University of Wisconsin.
Leatherwood naturally aspires to earn a seat in the top varsity eight at Yale, where the roster includes Tom Dethlefs, a member of the U.S. eight that won the gold medal at the World Rowing Under-23 Championships in Amsterdam last month.
"This was definitely a building summer for me; I needed to work on a lot of different aspects," said the former CHA standout.
He upgraded his general fitness routine, and just as important, logged a lot of race time on the water.
"I raced 18 2K's (the standard 2000-meter sprint race), and that's more than twice the number of 2K's I would row the entire season at Yale," he explained. "All that water time helped a lot."
His crew mates in the eight came from far and near, and included Justin Jones, a Northeastern University sophomore who was part of the U.S. gold medal eight at the 2010 World Rowing Junior Championships. Rowing in such company is not unusual at Penn A.C., home of many past Olympians and those who aspire to join them.
"It's inspiring just to walk around the boathouse and feel that history, see all those trophies and plaques," Leatherwood said.
In addition to racing in the eight at the Canadian Henley, he competed in two other boats, including an Under-23 quad that reached the finals, but the chief focus was the eights event. The main competition came from the University of Victoria (from British Columbia), the St. Catherine's Rowing Club, and the Mendota Rowing Club, which in this instance was an alias for rowers from the University of Wisconsin.
All these crews made their way into the finals on August 5, but there Penn A.C. won convincingly in a time of five minutes, 51.45 seconds, eclipsing runner up Mendota by 7.79 seconds.
Leatherwood hopes his successful summer season will serve as a springboard to help him capture a seat in what should be a strong first varsity eight at Yale. He's majoring in the history of science and medicine at the Ivy League school. His father is a physician, but while the younger Leatherwood is interested in the medical field he isn't leaning towards becoming a doctor himself.
Samantha Brecht, the former Mountie, rowed for Penn A.C. last summer, but switched to Vesper this year, feeling it would allow her to do more sculling (two oars per rower as opposed to one in "sweep" rowing) and to spend some time in smaller boats.
"I wanted to refresh my memory a bit and develop my sculling," she said. "As far as Wisconsin is concerned, I want to be in the best shape I can be in when I get there."
She pointed out that in the selection process for the crews of its eights, Wisconsin often evaluates the candidates when they're rowing in two-person sweep boats, or "pairs." Two of her future Badger teammates were also training at Vesper this summer; one of them, Floridian Hilary Schmidt, will be Brecht's roommate at Wisconsin.
Brecht, who lives in Flourtown, dealt with some health problems early in the summer, but recovered in time to race at the U.S. Club championships, winning a bronze medal in the Under-23 lightweight double. She also rowed a light double at the Canadian Henley, teaming up with Baldwin School grad Ali Wetzel.
As with Leatherwood at Penn A.C., the eights events generated the most excitement. The University of Victoria boats, staffed with college crewmates used to rowing together, were formidable opponents for the Vesper women. In the Under-23 lightweight eight event, Victoria won the final in 7:02.66, with the Philadelphia boat less than three-and-a-half ticks behind in second.
For the senior light eight races, where there was no age limit, two of Vesper's under-23's were replaced by the women who had won the gold medal in the senior lightweight double. Victoria also changed its line-up somewhat, according to Brecht, but Vesper won the final by a little over two-and-a-half seconds, 6:47.70 to 6:50.29.
At Pitt, Brecht had been pursuing courses in English and biological sciences as part of a pre-med curriculum, and she plans to continue in the same vein at Wisconsin.
"Being at Pitt convinced me that I wanted to be at a big university, with the type of facilities that they can offer," she said. "I've been starting to look into some graduate programs in sports medicine, and other areas where I can combine my main interests."

Obvious Apps will be a disruptive force in the burgeoning mobile apps space. We provide a unique user experience for submitting and voting on app ideas for millions of iPhone, iPad, and Android users and fans. We leverage social media, digital currency, and crowdsourcing to achieve exceptional brand recognition.
We receive idea submissions from our community and allow everyone to vote on the top 5 ideas of that round. After development of the app is complete, our app is live on the App Store and the idea submitter begins to receive a 10% royalty for every download.
Our community is composed of iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, and Android device users and fans. You are not required to own a device, only to have a great idea for an app - so our target audience is relatively broad. However we typically find that users are within the 18-30 age range.
Our website needs to exhibit a fun, sleek (but not TOO "techie") feel that will attract the greatest amount of users to participate in our process. You may visit our current site, http://www.ObviousApps.com to see the current layout.
Other than the parameters given below, we want you to get creative and really put your mark on this site. We are a unique and exciting company, so our website naturally should reflect that!
We need to:
1. Have our current logo flow well with your design. It is attached (the icon is also attached and can be incorporated if needed).
2. Have our minibar also flow well. I have attached a screenshot of what it will look like. The white part on top is simply the page behind the minibar. (Ignore the current minibar design on ObviousApps.com. Also, in the future this will be "skinnable" to where the color can be changed so don't sacrifice an awesome design to simply conform to this).
3. Keep in mind the "idea submission" and "voting" forms which will be the main driver of the site. These are simple text forms, so your page design needs to be exciting enough to compensate for the more bland parts, such as these forms.
Please do not use any stock images. We can't wait to see your designs!
