Master of Arts in Policy Economics
The theory for the master's degree program at the Center for Development Economics is based on two assumptions. The first is that a thorough understanding of fundamental concepts and techniques of economic analysis is essential to the understanding of development and to the formulation of good economic policy. The second is that one gains a working knowledge of these concepts and techniques only by applying them to real-life situations. The curriculum, therefore, emphasizes the application of the analytical techniques of economics to studying the process of development in low and middle-income countries.
Graduation Requirements
- The grade average is based on nine (9) courses: four core fall semester courses; a January Winter Study course; three spring semester core courses and one writing intensive course.
- As part of the requirements in the writing intensive course, students will prepare policy papers on current issues in their countries.
- Field trips to major cities for varied conferences and seminars are an integral part of the academic program; attendance and participation are required.
Awarding of the Degree
- The Master of Arts in Policy Economics degree or the certificate is awarded in June at commencement ceremonies upon successful completion of all requirements.
- The College does not award a degree or certificate, or release any academic transcripts to anyone with an outstanding financial obligation to the CDE or to the College.
- All bills must be paid by college established deadlines prior to graduation.

Fall 2004: Volume III, Issue 1
It all began when I set up a little research study because I wanted to know
the impact of our Creative Arts in Learning program on some of our teachers.
Five were from a cohort in Gardner, MA (rural/small town) and five were from
Boston Public Schools (urban). In addition, 11 teachers who had completed the
program in Derby Line, VT were interviewed once about its impact.
Using a case study method, I interviewed each teacher and observed her teach
about 3 times in two years of going through the program. They filled out
questionnaires after each course. The names of the principal participants
follow the article.
When I decided to extract poems from these
transcripts, the changes in the inner lives of teachers came clearly into
focus. Their poems, selected and edited by me, became the heart of my written
piece. My prose, which surrounded their poems, was explanatory.
But I
wasn't happy with this. I personally hate reading prose interrupted by poetry,
even though I'm a poet. So I decided to make "poems" out of my own prose.
Through this form, this dialogue between me and them in poems, taught me as I
worked and re-worked them.
Poetry is slanted, it is metaphorical, and it
must be read more slowly than prose and with an open heart. I'd love to hear
from any readers about how this form strikes you. I want to
know:What changed inside you as you went through this
integrated artsprogram? How did you shift and morphinside? And how do youdescribe your pretty selfnow?
By Chris ConnerDuring chorus class
in 7th grade,the teacher was trying to establishsopranos, altos,
baritones.She set up a divider, asked three childrento stand
behind it to sing the scale.After my group, the teacher said,and I quote, Which one of you sounds like a choking rooster?The other two pointed at me.From that day on I mouthedthe
words when we performed.I think it hurt so much because I
loved singing.At home I would sing all the time.I carried
that hurtful negativecomment with me all my life until this
Master's programwhen a special person, Louise, changed my viewand gave backwhat was destroyed 19 years ago. She said
Everyone can sing! We were never forced, and I eased myselfinto all the songs.After the two weekends I was actually
singing,not mouthing the words.Since then I have taught many of the songs to my kids. I even sing in front of parentsand
colleagues.Eleven courses in Creative Arts in
Learningover 4 years-- poetry, music, curriculum theory,visual
arts, arts and society, integrating the artscreative movement, arts and
technology, drama, storytelling, integrated project
By Kathy BarrettI. Coming to Lesley was a rude
awakening.Sitting in class, I was actually being challengedto think
for myself,to come up with my own thoughts.It was very scary when I
realizedI did not know how to do this.For a long time I sat
in silenceobservingwhat was going on around me.When asked to
contribute verballyor through written work,I found it very
difficult to dependonly on myself,no one telling me exactly what to
do.There was so much room for me,but I was very unsure about
howto fill the space.II. Unlike what I was used to,the
instructors were not lookingfor one correct response.All my life
I've spent looking forthe right answer,so afraid I would come up
withthe wrong one.I was called uponto become
involved,to actively participate,to think criticallyand to be
creative.I soon discovered that people actuallywantedto
hear what I had to say.My voice was being listened to.The
arts have stimulated not only my mind,but my emotions as well,involvingmy whole personin the constructionof knowledge.Real learning has gone on,and it has come from within me.Predictably,their lives were changed, as well as their
teaching.What is of equal interest are questions raisedby the process:Can a poet be a researcher?Whose poems are
these? Is it really poetry? Good poetry?Why poetry?Poet as
a Teacher I don't really trust research. There, that's said.A
house of cards, with one person's data, valid or not, used as
a brick in building another person's new house. And so on.
I love being a poet.She doesn't sit for hours Poring
over words. She wanders, she waits,hunts for an experience,opens herself to whatever comes along. The poet sits and sits, she sifts and sifts.
by Robin
WilliamsI didn't have a teachertelling me about poetry,I
had a poettelling me about poetry.I had a dancer telling meabout dance.That makes a difference—a person's telling
youin the first person.The teachers are real artists.It
makes art real.The poet wants to seehow the arts hit them,how they were changed by the touch of the arts. to see faces, hear stories, eyes gleaming,voices rising with discovery, to
look at their art pieces,
by Shireen SamuelAs a child, I felt I had two lives,my American self and my Trinidadian self.I had to always remember the correct self
for the correct place.I did not want to be made fun of so I kept my
voice under wraps.When you feel safe,
I think that is when you create.
by George MilkowskiI enjoy
dance, theater and so forth.But I never considered myself a
creator.They do thatand I do something else.It wasn't
the piece of work we did, it was whatI was going through,that
unshackled me,not whether it was going to be beautifulor
artistically appealingto everybodyor anybody.The process
I was going throughis what art is really about.Whose Poems
are these? I am a poet who happened to be standingin the way
when a bunch of words were thrown out the window like bathwater and
I recognized a baby.Who is speaking? Them.I only
chose and arranged, brought to life.A midwife? "Metamorphic transformation, the interpenetration of identities, is for many
still at the heart of poetry" (Hirsch, 1999, p. 131) Interpenetration sounds sexual-- their identities as teachers penetrate my teacher, my identity as poetpenetrates their poems,
Mary Clare, researcher, put on the poet mask as she searched
the data.They're not my poems, but I dug them out of cliff
by Mary GagnonThey said
in the beginning it was going to change
your life, and it really did.I never
had been exposed to the arts, never had the opportunity to try them on
for size.Something happensin the classesthat I'm still
thinkingaboutat twelve o'clockthat night.I've
become aware of and learned to ignoremy inner voice that says I
look foolish,and just to enjoy the doing
of the arts.I've
really reached into a part of myself that I
hadn't reached before.I'm more relaxed about where I amand what I am doingwhich has helped
mebecomemore articulatein voicing
educational philosophy.I do feel that I'm more creative.I actually
apply the creative process,I see that it's a real process focused in
different media.It's focusing inwardon what you canpull up. I see myselfas a POET now.I get a lot of
satisfaction from putting my thoughts on paper in a
poetic way. Each of my poemsfeels like a little chunkof my lifebeing set looseinto the world.It
isvery empowering. I was ableto paint and drawwithout being self deprecating
about my work.I just had a good time without feeling bad about my final product.This was
avery newexperience.I don't need anyone to affirm
it.I paint it, and I see a part of me.that's all
I need,not somebodyto sayit's good or
bad.Singing, I'm much more relaxed
than I was--oh, I say to myself,
you'll singeven though you don't sound so great.I considered
myself awkward and
ungraceful.I always thought I
needed years of trainingbefore I could dance.Now I like
the feeling of moving in space,of letting thoughtsbe expressed kinesthetically.(I deliberately
incorporate some movement into almost everything I teach now.)I
trust myselfas the source.Outside approvalor even inner
approvaldoesn't seemas much of an issue now.I just enjoy the
process.I have always been audience,
always watching.I enjoyed nice art,
nice music, nice theater,but
nowI feel likeI can actuallyproduce things,though it's
notmuseum quality.It makes me feel good to do so.Mainly, this programhas made me feelconfident--that what I'm doing
is OK,not too weird,not too bizarre,that perhaps I'm on the
right track.I trust myself.
Uttered as
prose,words became poems because a poet heard them,extracted them like teeth from a mouth, laid them down on
paperin the shape of poems. My process a metaphor for
how the artstransform classrooms because teachersare
transformed.The poet tells the truth but tells it slant.Speaks
in "a voice" other than her natural or social voice. Strikes a
pose, plays a role, reveals a truth while concealing. (Hirsch,
1999, p. 127) Are they Good Poems? I am not "in" these
poems and for this reasondoubt their worth,don't recognize
them as poems,even though I have made them.The poet wants poems beautifullyand carefully done. She knows how long it
takes to make a good poem. She is afraidthese poemsdo not work this way,like teachers' doubts when asked to
create songs or scenes or drawings.
by Peggy BennettThe better you feel about yourself,Dancing
by yourself when you hear music is OK,but suddenly you're good enough to
dance in front of people.The better teacher you areIf you look at a
painting of mine,you are seeinga side of me I can show you now.The better you feel in the classroomI never thought I'd write a decent
paper again,but I did, and I said, Well, you did it.the better your
sense of self is reinforced.I hated my voice when I heard it on tape.But now I'm trying to learn stories by taping myself,The better
you feel about yourself,I'm a ham, and I can ham it up. Go ahead, I
say.The better teacher you areI can take a lesson I've created and
publish it.I look at teacher magazines and say, I can do that!The
better you feel in the classroomI shared my poems with the 5th grade
classthe better your sense of self is reinforced.I could have been
an artist in residence.The better you feel about yourself,the
better teacher you areThe better you feel in the classroomthe
better your sense of self is reinforced.
By Chris ConnerI felt my talents were nilcompared
to my fellow teachers.I thought I was an average Joe,I just didn't
feel whatever I was doing was good enoughto put on display or show other
faculty.I thought it was because I was younger.But now I
feelI havea lotto offerother people,Once I
do an activity I'll share it with
someone elseand before you know it,it's going around the school.I don't worryabout who's doing whatacross the hall.I realize if I look deep enoughinsidemeIdohavecreativeresources,and the children will benefit from

teachers grew from our program? Will educators think poems reliable?
Valid? Will poems be at home in the culture of evidence?Will

pieces can sell the program?How will my colleagues see these poems? Won't summariesof what I foundmake them just as happy? I

big enough to suggest deep changes. Prose's laboring sentencescan't as easily corral transformation.Poetry suggests, then

beginning,I was terrified to speakin front of a group of
adults.Then in Storytelling, Sharon saidat the end of the
first weekendthat anyone who was nervouscould stay and talk to
her.I saidIt won't do any good for me to staybecause no matter what you saythe day of, I will be nervousbecause
it builds up with me,if I know I have to do it,it works on me
constantly.Sharon asked how I was going to be in my class.I
said, I'm fine with kids.I learned two storiesand when I was
readyI went across the hall.And then I worked my way into
third grade,Mary and Peggy's kids--their hands were flying upthe minute I finishedthey wanted to tell mewhat they'd heard in
the story.And then I did the other fourth gradesand then a
fifth grade.I felt like a celebrity by the time I told my storyin five other classrooms.The children loved hearing my story.I am often asked in the hallwayif I will come back to tell another.Reading and re-reading transcripts,forming and re-forming

method of learning,because the children are not one.
by Shireen SamuelI'm learning to bring outwhat I thinkI already haveinside.We keep ourselves
from creatingwhen we say onlyartists,dancers,or
actorsdo thisand the rest of usare just meant to watch
and appreciate.That's just not the case.
Here's the juice!Here's why I'm teaching!This thing they are
reporting, is what I'm after for other people and for myself
as well. This keeps me alive. Reach Inside YourselfBy Robin
WilliamsThe instructorsmake you reachinside yourself.It's very gentle,it's very subtle,but that's what'sbeen going on.I realize what I haveto do for these
courses:I have to let go of control.I have to be a child,and
if I don't,I'm not going to getanything out of it.I have
believed itfor many years:first, the low-income women in the
projects of Chicopee, our writing workshop. Seeing them
believe they were writers, with something to say and the power to
say it.Seeing them move out of public housing,go to college, even
get Master's degrees. Seeing them reaching back for the womenstill
in public housing, and the children.
by Marty
WakemanWhen you take a drama courseand Stan tells you,be large,That's a different way of lookingat the
world, to be large.Not talking louder but being bigger.It's
not just your voice that gets large,you start to feel large too,It's a perspective thing that keeps popping back.Before that,studying ten women artists working in
clay, dance, theater, music, writing, visual arts for my dissertationhow they shared artmaking with homeless kids,
troubled adolescents, small town citizens, elders. I've been on
this trail a long time, and now I see in teachers the same change
happening:the enlargement of the self, the breaking of old
definitions, the belief in oneself,the sharing of the new self.Not As Cautiousby Robin WilliamsDoing this degree in
Creative Arts is one of the best things I've ever done
for myself. I've grown. I've
discovered another Robin
who is OK with trying out new stuff
and not being afraid of
what others think.I've increasedthe boundariesof my
comfort zone."In poetry, identities are in process, selves are
constructed out of words, line by line, stanza by stanza" (Hirsch, 1999, p.
130). And these newly created teachersare with many students
in many classes, year after year,and they never go back to the way things were.I Do Wishby Mary GagnonI
wantfor the childrenwhat I have describedhappening to mein the Lesley program.I do wishsomebodyhad taught
methat wayin elementary school,that someonehad given
methat opportunity.If teachers can change,kids can
change,and if kids can changeeducation can change,And if
education can change,society itself can change,and if society can
change,life can change. Through Themby Stephen Gould,
PrincipalIn helping teachers learnto integrate the arts,one of the first thingsin all the classesis to help the
teachersfindwherethe arts
intersectwith them as persons.They're so trained to be
teachersthat they come to courses looking for lesson plans,but that
route isn't the way.The route is through them,through
bringing something alivein themand making someconnectionwith an art form.What follows from that flows naturally into the
classroom,and with their colleaguesbecause they have beentouched.If schools are going to beinteresting places for
kids,teachers have to be peoplewho are capable of beinginterested in thingsthemselves.Teachers baptized as
artists-- opened, stretched, spilled, filled, pulled and tugged
into new locationswithin themselves. They know what's
possible,they have a little peekinto what size humans can truly be,
and down what pathways it is possible to go while we are
alive. New Attitudeby Linda NewcombeThe arts helped

No wonder he would say that, he is a catholic.<quoted text>
Right after that sentence it describes he "spiritual hunger".
Eighty-one percent of respondents say they joined their new church because they enjoy the religious service and style of worship of their new faith.
Not much about the truths. They are more entertained
They want to be entertained and church shop like most Prots.
Most of these are those new mega-churches.
Like the popular Prot Radio host ,Alan Hunt, I believe said, They are getting our good Prots and we are getting their bad Catholics
I believe church should be enjoyable, faith building and exciting as opposed to being legally demanding, boring and ritually predictable. The true experience of being a christian is based on relationships with each other with Christ at the center. We can either worship the rituals, statues and worldly leaders or we can worship the true and living God-Christ in us our hope of glory.

RecycleMania Time: All Day Location: MUSC Campus Details:
RecycleMania is a friendly competition and benchmarking tool for college and university recycling programs to promote waste reduction activities to their campus communities. Over an 8-week period each spring, colleges across the United States and Canada report the amount of recycling and trash collected each week and are in turn ranked in various categories based on who recycles the most on a per capita basis, as well as which schools have the best recycling rate as a percentage of total waste and which schools generate the least amount of combined trash and recycling. With each week's updated ranking, participating schools follow their performance against other colleges and use the results to rally their campus to reduce and recycle more.
Recycling at Fat Tuesday Time: 10:00a - 1:00p Location: MUSC Horseshoe and Portico Details:

Loving parents Kate and Rob Grant battled through the emotional pain to stay on good terms when they split.
Despite going through a divorce they put aside their differences for the sake of their three sons.
Six months after they parted Rob had a brief fling with another woman, Neelam Darr, known to pals as Nina.
But when he ended the affair his spurned lover launched a vicious and terrifying campaign against Kate and her kids.
"When she couldn't have him, she flipped and became a bunny boiler, just like in Fatal Attraction," 26-year-old Kate says.
"Rob only slept with that woman twice, but she could not accept him ending it."
During 16 vengeful months, stalker Nina, 37, acted like the unhinged character played by Glenn Close in the 1987 film.
She broke into Kate's home, ripped up her wedding photos, attacked the Grants' nine-year-old son Kristian* and threatened to kill the entire family.
Nina was sentenced for assault and criminal damage but broke a restraining order twice, screaming more threats and making cut-throat gestures in front of the Grants' other children, aged two and five.
After Kate and 35-year-old Rob's nine-year relationship ended last year he moved into a flat near the family home in Biddulph, Staffs, and continued to spend a lot of time with the boys and their mum.
Then in December last year Kate was at a party proudly showing off photos of her sons when something very odd happened.
Kate says: "Someone said, 'Oh, aren't they Nina's children?
"Nina was another mum from the kids' school and I couldn't understand why people would think my children were hers."
Kate then found out about the fling. She spoke to Nina later and parted on what seemed to be good terms. But that night, as Rob slept on the sofa at Kate's house, they were woken by a noise outside.
Kate looked out and saw her smashing the garden fence and attacking the family car. "I was horrified," Kate says.
"She then burst through the front door and began to smash up the living room.
"She grabbed my wedding ring from the fireplace, ripped up wedding photos and stuffed Rob's photos down her trousers.
"She punched Rob then threw Kristian against the radiator. She was like a madwoman, screeching at Rob that he should be with her, not me."
Terrified Kristian dialled 999 and Nina was arrested. Kate says: "I was in shock. I was appalled and frightened."
Nina, also from Biddulph, pleaded guilty in May to assault and criminal damage.
She was given a 20-week jail sentence, suspended for a year, and a 12-month restraining order.
But days later she began abusing Kate as she walked her kids home from school.
Kate says: "On another occasion Nina was standing outside Rob's flat as I drove past.
"She was swearing and screaming at me and making a cut-throat action.
"Another time Nina appeared outside the house and threatened to kill us all."
Last month Nina was convicted of breaking the restraining order and was given another suspended sentence.
Her lawyers said she'd moved on from Rob.
Kate says: "I can't believe that such a brief affair has caused so much trouble for my family.
"She is proof that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."
* Kristian's name has been changed.

Economists Who Study Science Fiction Will See Science More Realistically

10 Great Novels That Aren't About What You Heard They Were About

Are Kurt Vonnegut's Drawings Quirky Or Just Horrifying?

moisture in my front turn signals?
i had recently noticed some moisture in one of my front turn signals. i didnt think anything of it untill a couple months later it stopped working. when i went to replace it, i noticed the whole socket was corroded and i had to break the light and rip the bottom to pieces with pliers just to get it out of the socket. once i got it out i noticed a type of "glass" had formed inside the bulb connector. the corrosion was so bad that even after i got the bulb out, the fitting would not fit back into the headlamp because corrosion had widened the fitting. i am having this problem on a GMC denali 2000, and was wondering waht i should do to fix it?
Replace the light and socket, there was most likely a crack in the fixture that was not allowing it to seal water tight
You could clean up the socket, but I agree with Mech, you really should replace the socket
I had a mustang do the same thing, I drilled a small (1/8) hole in the very bottom to let the moister out.

Normally, I don't 'just decide' to have broiled lobster for lunch, but I saw that Calvert House Inn Restaurant in Riverdale offered a $30.00 Groupon voucher for #15.00. I've passed this place countless times and thought that the building seemed curiously out of place. It stood out like a remnant of what used to be before the shabby urban sprawl swallowed the area whole.
Anyway, back to my lunch. As I checked in with various mobile apps, I noticed they also offer a free glass of wine with the purchase of any entrée via Yelp mobile. My eyes widened at the thought of killing two deals with one stone, but alas, the two could not be combined. I was seated and when browsing the lunch menu, I was thinking I might have to order two items to make full use of the entire $30 voucher. But there it was on the backside of the last page: broiled lobster tail for $26.95 (loaded with crab imperial for an additional $8). I considered the upsell, but in the end my cheapskatiness won and I went without it. For the salad, I ordered their calcuminto salad made up of chopped cucumber, mint, tomato, and onions in an oil and vinegar dressing. With a Yuengling to wash it down, the tangy medley was enjoyable as I eagerly awaited the main course.
Finally, the gold standard of shellfish arrived. The tail was plenty large, but there seemed to be no time spent on presentation. If there was any attempt at arranging the sparse steamed vegetables, it was lost by time it reached my table. However, the veggies were steamed perfectly and were tasty. The sweet potato fries were far from the best there is, but they weren't bad. The lobster tail was great. It was very nicely sized, cooked wonderfully, and super splendid when dunked in the melted butter. Overall, it was enjoyable, but I was glad not to pay full price – I guess I could say that at any restaurant that chops off half my bill.
Will I go back? Probably not. The lobster was good, but this isn't exactly a cheap eatery. On special occasions where a fancy meal is warranted, I'd prefer to go to one of the hotspots in DC, not the intersection of Route 1 and 410.

India lashes Pakistan after deadly Kashmir encounter
By Ashok Pahalwan
JAMMU, India (Reuters) - India denounced Pakistan on Wednesday over a firefight in the disputed territory of Kashmir in which two Indian soldiers were killed, but the nuclear-armed rivals both appeared determined to prevent the clash escalating into a full diplomatic crisis.
India summoned Pakistan's envoy in New Delhi to lodge a "strong protest", accusing a group of Pakistani soldiers it said had crossed the heavily militarized Line of Control (LoC) in Kashmir of "barbaric and inhuman" behavior.
The body of one of the soldiers was found mutilated in a forested area on the side controlled by India, Rajesh K. Kalia, spokesman for the Indian army's Northern Command, said. However, he denied Indian media reports that one body had been decapitated and another had its throat slit.
"Regular Pakistan troops crossed the Line of Control ... and engaged the Indian troops who were patrolling the sector," India's Ministry of External Affairs said in a statement after Pakistan's high commissioner to India had been called in.
"Two Indian soldiers were killed in the attack and their bodies subjected to barbaric and inhuman mutilation."
India's foreign minister sought to cool tensions, however, saying that exhaustive efforts to improve relations could be squandered if the situation was not contained.
"I think it is important in the long term that what has happened should not be escalated," Salman Khurshid told a news conference. "We cannot and must not allow the escalation of any unwholesome event like this."
"We have to be careful that forces ... attempting to derail all the good work that's been done towards normalization (of relations) should not be successful," he added, without elaborating on who such forces might be. Continued...

Truck wont start!
Ok so we have now had the vehicle a little over a week and yesterday my wife said she went to leave her moms and it would not start. She got a jump and came home.
I charged the battery but sure enough, over night it died again...
What should I start looking for?
Re: Truck wont start!
Do the alternator test. Also check the battery to see if you're getting 12.5 volts. Any shop can do a load test on the bat to see if it's good or not. Make sure there is enough electrolite in the bat. If not top it off with distilled water to barely touch the bottom of the opening in the bat cell walls.
Re: Truck wont start!
I had this problem about 2 months ago. And 500 dollars later, it was the starter.
Re: Truck wont start!
I had a problem like this last night. But I was just out of gas 2 buildingd down from a gas station. LOL My light was on for 2 days....
Re: Truck wont start!
Well, if you can start by using a jumper cable, it is not the starter. What you need is a new battery. IMO
Oh yeah, make sure that the cables terminal (- and +) are properly connected tightly to the battery.
Re: Truck wont start!
I will charge or jump it tonight to go check the battery and the alternator.
Its still the Mopar batter but the freaking thing looks new, and the terminals are nice and shiny, so either the dealer cleaned a ton of corrosion off the terminals or its new.
Are we able to check the levels in the battery on these? I thought they were sealed "maintenance free"....
I dont think its the starter unless thats causing a draw somehow.
Re: Truck wont start!
Oh I never looked at the battery to be honest. If it's sealed than you can't do anything to it.
Re: Truck wont start!
it is a sealed battery...no maint. needed. My battery was the same way a month or so ago...looked perfect....and just died. If thats an 05...I would guess it is the original....just get another one. I think mine cost $120 from my Jeep dealer
Re: Truck wont start!
My jeep dealer said to go with a yellow top on mine there a hundred bucks and worth it nice and powerful. i use two of them for all accesories and my system.
Re: Truck wont start!
I recommend the mopar replkacement...nice warranty and not some ugly ass color
Re: Truck wont start!
a new battery.
Re: Truck wont start!
I'm telling ya it is the starter. I had this SAME exact problem.

April 4, 2012
By Brian Davis, Assistant Media Relations Director
KNOXVILLE, Tenn.- A key two-RBI single off the bat of sophomore shortstop Madison Shipman backed a complete-game effort from junior pitcher Ivy Renfroe as the #10/9 Tennessee Lady Vol softball team (28-9, 10-6 Southeastern Conference) battled back from a tough loss to split its Wednesday doubleheader against #9/10 Georgia (30-8, 9-5 SEC) with a 2-1 victory in the nightcap.
The two teams were delayed for one hour and 16 minutes by inclement weather during the bottom of the second as lightning and heavy rain rolled through the Lee Softball Stadium area.
Renfroe scattered six hits in the complete-game effort, allowing one run, walking three and striking out nine in improving to 9-6 on the season and 3-3 in SEC action.
At the plate Shipman was 1-for-3 with a steal and two RBIs, boosting her team-leading total to 37 RBIs. Junior third baseman Raven Chavanne was 1-for-2 with a run scored and her squad-best 17th stolen base, while junior first baseman Melissa Brown (1-for-2) and senior catcher Ashley Andrews (1-for-2) each registered one of Tennessee's base hits.
"Well first of all hats off to both teams," Lady Vol Co-Head Coach Ralph Weekly said. "That was an amazing doubleheader, very much the same as our doubleheader last month at Alabama. We lose the first game in 11 innings and bounce back to win the second game. Two great teams...Georgia is a really good team, and we knew that after their series last weekend against Florida. I'm proud of our kids and how they got up off the mat. I'm proud of both Ivy and Ellen, they each threw great for us tonight. These were just two well-pitched games by both teams."
Georgia posted a promising threat in the top of the first as designated player Ashley Razey walked with two down and was soon joined on the base paths via infield single from catcher Kristyn Sandberg. Renfroe responded to the threat by inducing a pop-up to third base by UGA first baseman Tess Sito, leaving a Bulldog duo stranded.
Chavanne walked starting Tennessee's half of the first and quickly advanced to second on a wild pitch by Georgia starter Morgan Montemayor. A groundout by junior right fielder Kat Dotson moved the UT speedster within 60 feet of pay dirt, but she remained right there as a strikeout and a groundout ended the opening frame.
Renfroe really put her foot down from the circle in the top of the second, striking out the side as Bulldog third baseman Gracie Goulder, left fielder Brittney Hubbard and right fielder Anna Swafford went down on strikes.
In the bottom of the second with two down and a 1-1 count on sophomore left fielder Melissa Davin, lightning flashed almost directly over Lee Softball Stadium. The inclement weather resulted in a delay of one hour and 16 minutes, and on resumption, Davin lined the first pitch she received from Montemayor directly to third to end a very long half-inning.
With UT's 6-0 hurler controlling things from the circle, Andrews christened the bottom of the third with a base knock just over the infield. After a fielder's choice from sophomore center fielder Tory Lewis, Chavanne singled on a bunt. With a pair of Lady Vols on base and two down after a strikeout, Georgia made the decision to walk junior second baseman Lauren Gibson intentionally to get to Shipman. That move backfired as the 6-1 shortstop blooped a two-RBI single just onto the outfield grass, granting the Big Orange a 2-0 advantage. Senior designated player Shelby Burchell nearly brought another run across with a blooper of her own, but UGA's Ashley Pauly made a terrific over-the-shoulder catch to conclude the scoring outburst.
Brown battled Montemayor over nine pitches before singling through the infield to open the bottom of the fourth. Hannah Trainer came into the contest to pinch run for Brown but was quickly retired as a result of a grounder by Davin to third that was thrown to second for the initial out. Davin swiped second with Andrews at the plate to register her third stolen base of the season. After a strikeout for the second retirement, freshman Cheyanne Tarango stepped to plate in place of Lewis. A wild pitch moved Davin up to third, and it looked like she would score off of Tarango's shot to the right side of the infield. However, second baseman Ashley Pauly made a diving stop in the gap and rolled the ball to Tess Sito at first to put an end to the UT scoring threat.
Georgia threatened in the top of the fifth as a lead-off infield single from Hubbard and a one-out base knock to left by Niaja Griffin put a pair of Bulldogs on heading to the top of the order. The duo was left stranded, however, as Renfroe registered her seventh K of the contest on a strikeout of Wilson and handled a chopper back to the circle from Pauly.
Razey reached for the `Dawgs to open the top of the sixth, walking on five Renfroe pitches. Following a fielder's choice, first baseman Tess Sito ripped a sharp single through the left side of the infield, placing a pair of the bags with one down. A walk issued to third baseman Gracie Goulder loaded the bases, setting the stage for a sac fly by Hubbard as UGA cut its deficit to 2-1. On the drive to right, UT's Dotson made a great catch on the run in the corner to prevent more damage. Swafford stepped to the dish and battled to a full count before swinging and missing at strike three, ending the scoring outburst.
Facing a last chance in regulation, Georgia just missed tying the contest at two after Wilson blasted a one-out drive to deep centerfield that was caught on the warning track by Lewis. Pauly blooped a ball over third that stayed just inches inside the left field line with two down to give the Bulldogs some life. Unlike the first game of the doubleheader, the Big Orange wouldn't allow UGA to muster any late inning heroics. UT's Chavanne concluded the game by handling a chopper from Razey to third and firing on to first for the win.

Flaherty urges progress on European crisis
By David Ljunggren
OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canadian Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said on Friday he was very concerned about delays in addressing the European debt crisis because it could endanger the global economy, but he remained confident of modest North American growth
"We need to get to the goal and delay is the enemy. All they have to do is look at the markets, look at the bond spreads, look at what is happening to certain countries in the world that are going to have to bear an awful lot of the premium to borrow money, so we need to sort that out and get to a conclusion," Flaherty told reporters.
The rift between Europe's two biggest powers -- France and Germany -- has forced leaders to tack on an extra summit to address the region's debt crisis in the coming week.
France's push to use more European Central Bank money to fight the euro zone debt crisis ran into strong resistance from Germany and other EU partners on Friday, leaving Paris increasingly isolated before a crucial summit.
They will now meet twice -- on Sunday and Wednesday -- to adopt a comprehensive strategy to fight the crisis that began in Greece, spread to Ireland and Portugal and is now threatening to engulf bigger economies in the 17-nation currency area.
Flaherty said that while the European crisis threatens global economic growth, he remained confident there would be modest growth in North America in the next little while, and he shrugged off an unexpectedly strong rise in Canadian inflation data released on Friday.
Canada's annual core inflation rate jumped in September to its highest level in nearly three years, causing traders to scale back expectations of a possible central bank interest rate cut this year or next.
Flaherty noted core Canadian inflation remained within the Bank of Canada's 1 to 3 percent comfort zone despite the September uptick, adding that he is more concerned about growth than inflation. Continued...

In the wake of the Boston Marathon bombings, Mayor Michael Bloomberg said Monday the country's interpretation of the Constitution will "have to change" to allow for greater security to stave off future attacks.
"The people who are worried about privacy have a legitimate worry," Mr. Bloomberg said during a press conference in Midtown. "But we live in a complex word where you're going to have to have a level of security greater than you did back in the olden days, if you will. And our laws and our interpretation of the Constitution, I think, have to change."
Mr. Bloomberg, who has come under fire for the N.Y.P.D.'s monitoring of Muslim communities and other aggressive tactics, said the rest of the country needs to learn from the attacks.
"Look, we live in a very dangerous world. We know there are people who want to take away our freedoms. New Yorkers probably know that as much if not more than anybody else after the terrible tragedy of 9/11," he said.

Compass display gone missing
Suddenly the compass direction display by the speedometer has gone missing. It was there before. I can't find any way to put it back. When I start the car on the top of the CUE display is a small circle with the direction in it, but if I press it it also goes away. How do I get the compass back?

Re: Compass display gone missing
On the right hand group of buttons on the steering wheel, is a bar with the letters SEL on it. If you toggle the bar up and down, the center display under the speedometer will change to display either the compass, the phone, the radio or the settings. I have mine so it shows the compass, but every ounce in a while it will change to show the radio stations. I have not figured out why that is yet so I just change it back. If you rock the bar back and forth it allow you to set what you want displayed on either side of the center display under the speedometer.

Legal Professional: Build Your Business
Can I lawfully sue a city for not serving my child custody warrants. My x has been to court twice already and has never been arrested for felony child support. He bought land from my county attorney's family, the county attorney's father is also a lawyer and employed my x's family and advises them on person matters. I went to court last week and my child support is messed totally up! Someone help please!!!
mechlady:Can I lawfully sue a city for not serving my child custody warrants
Warrants for what? What is the purpose of these warrants?
mechlady:My x has been to court twice already and has never been arrested for felony child support.
Were arrest warrants issued for his arrest?
mechlady:I went to court last week and my child support is messed totally up!
How is it messed up? Do you have an attorney?
"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience." - Mark Twain
Not sure why this post is on a business law/discrimination board instead of one of the family law boards.
mechlady:Can I lawfully sue a city for not serving my child custody warrants. My x has been to court twice already and has never been arrested for felony child support.
I'm not sure what a "child custody warrant" is (doesn't sound like anything that would pertain to unpaid child support). In any event, a suit against the city would not be viable. I'm also not sure why you think it would do you any good to have your ex arrested for non-payment of child support. Seems to me you'd be far better off seeking to enforce the support obligation by levying on bank accounts or other assets and/or garnishing his wages.
mechlady:Someone help please!
This is an Internet message board. We can provide information in response to questions. I'm not sure what "help" you think we can provide beyond that. I suggest you consult with a local family law attorney.
I think I'm being discriminated against because they won't ever serve my warrants, it's been 13 years. I went to court last week, it's not that I want him sent to prison, it's just not fair the way I've been treated. He has paid me $400 in the past year. My last court date, wasnt even recorded in the computers because they never served the warrants, but my x sure did come in to court!! He wants his payments lowered, after they just raised them, how does one get out of felony child support, is that legal? Not to mention, my county attorney is his friend. There was a different county attorney 4 years ago, now it's still going on. My child deserves his rights for child support and I think he should pay just like everyone else. He has claimed disability for 10 years, and he is younger than my!!! He used to bring in 2-3 check stubbs.... and say... I dont work that much, and works for cash all the time, and does good keeping his cigarette and beer habit and women up pretty good!
I have not hired an attorney, I wan't sure if I needed one.
I had warrants on my x 13 years ago, maybe, and it's been like this over and over and over. I'm just tired of him getting treated special. I'd like to know who is responsible for the warrants not being served all this time. I've had chest pains worrying about my bills and my sick child, I have classes that I've had to cancel, my mother just had an heart attack. My x's family never helps me, and I tried to get local sheriff and police department to help me arrest my x 10 years ago, this could've already been over. I've had to sell every thing I own because of this problem.
I even turned my child support case over to the state of Texas because they wouldn't help me here. How much does someone have to take?
This last time we went to court, no warrants served, my back child support was wrong also. Should'nt a County Attorney know exactly what is owed? Is there interest supposed to be added to that, see that's why I think it's all being done wrong. I was never included in a conversation where we were supposed to lower his payments either. I never saw them confront each other at the courthouse that day in the lobby, and he had a money order already made up. I just think somethings going on behind my back.
mechlady: I just think somethings going on behind my back.
It's more likely that it's going on right in front of you. You need to consult with an attorney and explain the entire situation to him/her. Let that person figure out what, if anything, can be done for you. If you try to do it yourself, you will still get nothing and continue to be stressed. Get a good local attorney to hold his feet to the fire and do it tomorrow.
Well, where I live they are well known for having a "lacking" sheriff's department.
I meant Felony child support warrants on my.
There's more ways to enforce child support than just issuing warrants for arrest. It's unclear where the CS order resides as you've indicated that your state is KY, yet you mentioned Texas in the post. If you are in KY, here is a link that might help you to the Kentucky Child Support website. On this link you can find out how much is owed and how to contact a local office so that they may assist with garnishing his wages and/or bank accounts.

Hi and Good Morning :)
What gorgeous entries we had last week for our snowflakes challenge - there were some absolute beauties and it was such a pleasure seeing what everyone created!
My card today is for this weeks challenge theme of 'Sweethearts'. Valentines day is just around the corner, but hearts also make a lovely addition to any card for someone special.
I used a 6 x 6 inch blank card base and stitched MME papers onto pink Bazzill card. I layered the beautiful Lady Kate Edger border and the waste from the Celtic Heart Border onto the horizontal paper panel, and then added the Large Heart to Heart Doily Die. This die is really versatile, with lots of layering components, and so I used the inner heart shape to mat my image too. I then cut the smallest die from the Two of Hearts, and also the Celtic Heart Die in white for some contrast. The tiny flowers are made from the BAF embellishment sets and I added some pearls from stash.
All dies uses on this card are:
I hope you find time to join us this week, and you still have plenty of time to enter. Dont forget there is always fresh inspiration from the rest of the talented DT over on our Cheery Lynn Inspirations Blog.
Thanks so much for visiting our blog today, and have a smashing week!

CSIRO environmental scientist, Professor Damian Barrett, is heading up a major research project to establish an accurate and reliable regional measurement of methane seeps that are naturally occurring in the Surat Basin.
Professor Barrett says the project will differ from other contemporary gas seep studies that have focused largely on the concentrations of methane occurring in the Surat Basin.
"Concentration of methane is not the end game - what we want to know is the methane flux from seeps, how these fluxes are changing over time and where it is coming from?" he said.
"There are two main sources of methane in our natural environment - one is from coal seam deposits or so-called thermogenic methane, the other is called biogenic methane which can come from a variety of sources including soils, rotting vegetation, animals and water bodies.
"In the first phase of this project currently underway, we are examining a range of techniques including infrared, remote sensing, isotropic tracing, micro-meteorology tools and atmospheric transport models to determine what methods to use for the pilot phase.
"There is significant amount of experience and skills within CSIRO, but we are also drawing on our extensive research contacts across the global scientific community.
"Once the techniques and modelling are confirmed during the pilot phase, we will then move to roll out the baseline study across the broader Surat Basin region.
"There's a lot of anecdotal evidence on landscape seeps and this research project will enable us to put numbers to what volumes of methane are naturally coming out of the landscape in the Surat Basin and will provide a set of data to compare methane seeps in the future.
"Being able to identify the source and to measure the amount of methane occurring will be valuable information for the community and industry."
Professor Barrett said this project is focused on measuring natural seeps from the landscape and will distinguish these seeps from the gas emissions that may occur from gas wells and other gas related infrastructure known as "fugitive emissions", which are the subject of other studies.
The methane seeps project being undertaken by CSIRO is jointly funded by Australia Pacific LNG under the Gas Industry Social and Environmental Research Alliance (GISERA).
The partners in GISERA have invested more than $14 million over the next five years to research the environmental, social and economic impacts of the natural gas industry. GISERA projects are overseen by a Research Advisory Committee. The results of the methane seeps project once completed will also be externally peer-reviewed and made publicly available.
GasFields Commissioner Steven Raine who also sits on the GISERA Research Advisory Committee said this research project represents another important step forward in helping to build community confidence and understanding about the science of methane gas and its sources in the Surat Basin.
For more information on the methane seepage project, visit GISERA's website.
Geek Speak - here are some key terms you should know about methane:
- Methane seeps are naturally occurring methane emissions from the landscape
- Thermogenic methane is methane that comes from deposits of coal seams arising from temperature and pressure of overlying sediments
- Biogenic methane is methane from bacteria in soils, rotting vegetation, animals, water bodies
- Concentration is simply the amount of methane per unit volume of air
- Flux is the volume of methane per unit of time
- Fugitive emissions are emissions that may escape from gas wells and other gas related infrastructure.

The most famous spy exchange is currently in process of completion. Sources indicate Igor Sutyagan, a spy for the United States, has already arrived in Vienna and the Russian government soon expects the arrival of Anna Chapman who was arrested for spying in the United States. Of course, the State Department denies having any spies in Russia and the Russian government will not acknowledge the presence of spies in the US. From an objective analysis, it appears that Russia is getting the best of this exchange. They receive Ms. Chapman, who undoubtedly, will bring her whips and chains for use in disciplining naughty men while all the US gets is a dour faced middle aged man. Ms. Chapman will bring pictures of New York City that she took while posing as a tourist. We can expect the entire Russian spy agency to carefully study these photographs in order to identify the best places to purchase snow cones or high quality ice cream. And, what does the US receive in exchange? They get a sensual woman who is damned attractive and America, as usual, gets the short end of the stick.
We strongly urge the American government to insist that at least one of the spies returned to us is gorgeous. And, we should insist on the right to take tourist pictures in Moscow!
