Surprise, Shock, and Gospel: A Public Lecture on the Parables of Jesus
November 29
Not a Number Night
Barbara Ashton,
Borough of Manhattan Community College, City University of New York
"A Sampler of Topics from Mathematics and the Arts"
Three different topics from current publications that illustrate how mathematics can be used to model artistic endeavors will be discussed. The first two topics, from the Journal of Mathematics and the Arts, include how to calculate the area and volume of gothic structures using single variable calculus and how contra dancing is related to finite groups. Professor Ashton will also discuss an algorithm she has developed for modeling and generating heraldic designs.
Barbara Ashton was a faculty member at Wittenberg University and a former President of the Ohio MAA. She is currently an associate professor of mathematics at Borough of Manhattan Community College,– The City University of New York where she recently completed directing the Science and Technology Entry Program, a college prep program for historically underrepresented and economically disadvantaged high school students. Ashton is a nationally recognized expert on the mathematics of Frank Lloyd Wright's architecture. Her current research focuses on the relationships between mathematics, religion and art. In her spare time, she scouts out locations in New York City where her border collies can play Frisbee.

"Can You Hear the Mathematics?"
Connections between mathematics and music range from the mathematics of acoustics and sound itself, through the theory of scales and temperaments, to the use of mathematics in musical composition and analysis. This talk focuses on music composition. Many composers, including some quite famous ones, have been accused of using mathematics. Some arguably have done so consciously. In other cases the presence of mathematics in their works has only been detected by some kind of ex post facto analysis. Either way, the question we ask here is: is the mathematics audible?
Musical composition can be aided by mathematics in numerous ways. Mathematics can be used to determine overall proportions and other large-scale parameters of a piece. It can provide tools for the manipulation of musical materials already composed. It can also generate from scratch the smallest details of a composition, namely, the notes themselves: pitches, dynamics and durations. But can the mathematics be heard? This talk will present a number of very short case studies, almost exclusively based on classical music composed in the last 100 years. Don't expect any grand conclusions, but at least we will raise some basic issues.
Michael Henle is the current editor of The College Mathematics Journal. He has taught for 40-some years at Oberlin College having gone there directly from graduate work at Yale. He started his mathematical life as a functional analyst and then became a bit of a combinatorialist. He is the author of two texts: A Combinatorial Introduction to Topology (Dover) and Modern Geometries: Non-Euclidean, Projective and Discrete (Prentice-Hall). A lifelong interest in music led him to the topic of this lecture. He plays piano a bit and is a sometime composer. He avoids, however, employing mathematics in music himself as far as possible.
Dave Sobecki,
University of Miami (Hamilton)
"Of Elephants, Fuzzy Dogs and Teaching Backwards: A Story About Making Your Course Engagin'"
The traditional method of teaching math goes something like this: Definition; Theorem; Example; Example; Example; Application. Many of us feel pretty comfortable with that - hey, it worked for us. But does it work well for the average student? I propose a backward method: starting with applications to motivate the math. When you start to think this way, it opens up a world of possibilities. I'd like to share some of my world of possibilities.
Dave Sobecki was born and raised in Cleveland, and started college at Bowling Green State University in 1984 majoring in creative writing. Eleven years later, he walked across the graduation stage to receive a PhD in math, a strange journey indeed. After two years at Franklin and Marshall College in Pennsylvania, he came home to Ohio, accepting a tenure-track job at the Hamilton campus of Miami University. Dave has won a number of teaching awards in his career, and more recently has turned his attention to writing textbooks. He has written or co-authored either five or nine textbooks, depending on how you count them, as well as several solutions manuals and interactive CD-ROMS. Dave is in a happy place where his love of teaching meshes perfectly with his childhood dream of writing. Dave is also a former coordinator of Ohio Project NExT. He lives in Fairfield, Ohio with his lovely wife Cat, and fuzzy dogs Macleod and Tessa. When not teaching or writing, Dave's passions include Ohio State football, Cleveland Indians baseball, heavy metal music, travel, golf and home improvement.
John Stillwell,
University of San Francisco
"From Perspective Drawing to the Eighth Dimension"
The discovery of perspective drawing in the 15th century led to projective geometry, in which points and lines are the main ingredients. Even with this simple subject matter there are some surprises, where three points fall on the same line or three lines pass through the same point, seemingly for no good reason. The big surprises, or "coincidences", of projective geometry are the Pappus theorem, Desargues theorem, and the little Desargues theorem. Even more surprising, these purely geometric theorems were found (by David Hilbert and Ruth Moufang) to control what kind of *algebra* is compatible with the geometry. Compatible algebras live in 1, 2, 4, and 8 dimensions.
"Hits and Memories: 1940-1970"
Some reminiscences of mathematics and mathematics books from the middle of last century set against the cultural background of the time. In particular, I will explain which comic book hero had the most influence on my mathematical development.
John Stillwell was born in Melbourne, Australia in 1942. He was educated at Melbourne High School (1956--1959) and Melbourne University (1960--1965), before going to MIT for his Ph. D. (1965--1970). From 1970 to 2001 he taught at Monash University in
Melbourne, during which time he wrote his best known book, Mathematics and Its History, and gave invited talks at the ICM in Zurich in 1994 and the Joint Meetings of the AMS and MAA in Baltimore in 1998. Since 2002 he has been at the University of San Francisco, where he continues to write mathematics books, most recently Naive Lie Theory (Springer 2008) and Roads to Infinity (A K Peters 2010). He received the MAA's Chauvenet prize for mathematical exposition in 2005.

Darlings, what a whirlwind. I have sore paws from all the rushing around in my Louboutins attempting the marathon of shows I'm lucky enough to have invites too. So much so that I haven't had the chance to pick up my laptop and report back to the blog until now - 3 'weeks' in! Naughty bunny! So, while I take a well earned breather and bubble bath in my hotel to prepare for tonight's Versace extravaganza, here's my pick of outfits from the New York shows. Can't wait to wear them...

My dad and I have a lot in common. We were both born and raised in Iowa by Roman Catholic parents. We both went to college and got post-graduate degrees. We both take pleasure in being fathers, enjoy eating peanut butter, prefer manual transmission cars.
What we don't have in common is the news we read. And that's not just because we have easy access to different print newspapers given the fact that he lives in Iowa and I live in Vermont.

[Updated] If you use 1Password 3 for iOS and Dropbox sync, take action by September 1
Our sale ended September 6, thanks everyone!
We've used Dropbox in 1Password for… forever. It's a fantastic way to sync your data between all your devices. Dropbox continues to improve and innovate, making the service more accessible, faster, and even more secure. As part of this progress, Dropbox will disable its legacy API—the bridge that lets apps talk to Dropbox—in favor of its next-generation API on September 1st.
As we all know, sync and innovating are hard work, so we sympathize with Dropbox's need to retire an old API that's done its bit for king and country. If you use 1Password 3 for iOS and sync through Dropbox, you need to take action before September 1. If you use any other 1Password apps, they are already built for Dropbox's next-generation API; you don't need to do anything.
State of 1Password and Dropbox sync
In other words:
- 1Password 3 for Mac and 1Password 1 for Windows sync directly to the Dropbox folder on the local file system and will continue to sync with Dropbox just fine.
- 1Password 4 for iOS (released last year) uses the latest version of the Dropbox API and will continue to sync with Dropbox just fine.
- 1Password 1 for Android also uses the latest version of the Dropbox API and will continue to sync with Dropbox just fine.
- 1Password 1 for Windows Phone uses an open source API based on the latest Dropbox API and will continue to sync just fine.
- 1Password 3 for iOS, which was removed from the App Store last year, used the legacy Dropbox API. Come September 1st, this old version of 1Password will no longer be able to sync with Dropbox.
If you use 1Password 3 for iOS and sync with Dropbox, please read on for alternative sync options.
What should 1Password 3 for iOS users do?
Users of 1Password for Mac, Windows, Android, and Windows Phone, as well as 1Password 4 for iOS, have nothing to do. If you use 1Password 3 for iOS and sync through Dropbox, you need to take action before September 1.
First, confirm you are using 1Password 3 for iOS. To do this, look at the 1Password icon on your home screen and see if it matches one of the icons on the right. Now that you have confirmed your version, you have the following options.
Upgrade to 1Password 4 for iOS
1Password 4 for iOS is a brand new app from pixel to bit. It's a single, universal app for iPhone and iPad that brought over 20 major new features and a ton of little ones like an incredible, full-featured web browser, Favorites, quick Action Bar, folders, private item sharing. It was also designed to use Dropbox's latest sync technology.
To make this transition as easy as possible,
we're putting 1Password 4 for iOS on sale! Update: The sale ended September 6, thanks everyone!
You can switch to Wi-Fi Sync
1Password 3 for iOS supports Wi-Fi sync with 1Password 3 for Mac. We have a support document & video to help you set this up, and our stellar customer support team stands by to answer any questions. Note: 1Password for Windows does not currently support Wi-Fi sync.
Why don't you update 1Password 3 for iOS?
The short answer is: we'd like to, but we can't. When we launched 1Password 4 for iOS last year, we removed our three previous versions of 1Password 3 for iOS from the App Store to avoid confusion. Apps removed from sale can no longer be updated.
As a small team we need to focus our development efforts on making the current versions of 1Password even better.
Do you still support 1Password 3 for iOS?
Absolutely! While 1Password 3 for iOS will no longer be updated, our Customer Support team is always willing and able to help you with any questions you have for 1Password 3 for iOS.
What if my device cannot run iOS 6?
1Password 4 for iOS requires iOS 6, which is compatible with:
- iPhone: iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5
- iPod touch: iPod touch 4th & 5th generation
- iPad: iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad 4, iPad mini
If your device cannot run iOS 6, your next option is to sync with 1Password 3 for Mac over Wi-Fi, as mentioned above.
If you have any questions about how you are impacted, please contact our support team.

Black Caviar and Royal Delta won important races a world apart and a couple more potential Derby contenders surfaced in weekend racing.
Gary Stevens said he's getting back "that feeling." And trainer Bill Mott felt just fine after a super weekend in South Florida.
Lucky Nine could be headed to Dubai after winning in Hong Kong and Grape Brandy looks headed for stardom on the dirt in Japan.
In the weather report: Soft Falling Rain continued in Dubai and they were racing on the ice in Switzerland. Really.
Read on.
Gulfstream Park
Royal Delta, the reigning queen of American racing, is ticketed for the Dubai World Cup after easily winning Sunday's $100,000, Grade III Sabin Stakes in her seasonal debut. With Mike Smith in for the ride, the 5-year-old Empire Maker mare missed the break slightly but then quickly erased all doubt about her dominance. At the end of 1 1/16 miles, she was 5 lengths ahead of her closest rival and was never asked for her best effort. She finished in 1:43.31 in her first start since a convincing win in last fall's Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic at Santa Anita. All For Thee, from the Team Block powerhouse, stayed with Royal Delta until midway around the stretch turn and held on for second, 3 1/2 lengths in front of a disappointing Grace Hall. Trainer Bill Mott, who swept all before him during the Gulfstream weekend, said Royal Delta's win was "a relief. I'm glad it's over." He said the plan is for Royal Delta to ship to Dubai in about a month for the March 30 World Cup. She finished ninth in that race last year after running second in the Sabine. Mott says Royal Delta is better now but admitted she will be at a disadvantage in making a late appearance in the Mideast.
"We'll be racing against horses that have been training there since October," he said. "Some of them (are) already acclimated."
But he said if Royal Delta gets a good trip, "she can make a good show of it."
Starformer went to the front on the stretch turn in Saturday's $100,000, Grade III The Very One Stakes for fillies and mares and kicked on, winning by 3 1/4 lengths over Angegreen. Beijoca finished third. Starformer, a 5-year-old Dynaformer mare, ran 1 3/8 miles on good turf in 2:18.03 with Edgar Prado up. She was making her first start since winning the Grade III Long Island Handicap at Aqueduct Nov. 10. She has five wins from 14 starts in a career that began in France.
"We knew she was one of three horses in the race with speed and she fell into a good position third," said Mott, who trains Starformer. "She got a great trip. She came to us as a 3-year-old and was a little disappointing running in her first few races for us at a mile or a little more, and seemed to get in trouble. After we stretched her out to 11 furlongs or more she seems to like that a lot better."
He said he will consider the Grade III Orchid Handicap March 30.
Amira's Prince blew by pacesetting Teaks North turning for home in Saturday's $150,000, Grade II Mac Diarmida Stakes and went on to win by 3 3/4 lengths over that rival. Ioya Bigtime, another from Team Block, ran evenly to finish third. Amira's Prince, a 4-year-old, Irish-bred colt by Teofilo, ran 1 3/8 miles on good going in 2:17.14 for jockey John Velzaquez. He raced in Ireland last year and now has won all three of his U.S. starts. Mott also trains this one.
"We had no idea (about his ability)," Mott said. "They sent him over for the Jamaica (in New York) last fall. We didn't run him. He looked like he needed more time, so we brought him down here and freshened him up, and this is the result."
He said he will consider the Pan American on March 23, adding, "It would be a shame to keep the horse in the barn, as well as he's doing."
You can throw Dice Flavor into the Kentucky Derby mix. The Scat Daddy colt rolled from well back in the field to win Saturday's $200,000, Grade III El Camino Real Derby at Golden Gate Fields by 3 3/4 lengths. Nina's Dragon and Counting Days completed an all-long shot trifecta. The favorite, Manando, led early but stopped badly and finished last. Carving and Zeewat both tired and finished fourth and fifth. Dice Flavor, with Jose Valdivia Jr. in the irons, ran the 1 1/8 miles on the all-weather track in 1:51.45.
"He was moving easily all the way," Valdivia said. "He made up a lot of ground and made the lead easily. I've felt that he had the physical talent, but mentally he's not all there. But today he impressed me because if he didn't accelerate right when that hole opened, he would have been stuck."
Winning trainer Paddy Gallagher said he will discuss with the owners where next to run Dice Flavor -- and whether to make him a late Triple Crown nominee. It was his second win in five tries.
Shakin It Up waited behind the pace in Sunday's $150,000, Grade II San Vicente Stakes at Santa Anita, got through between rivals at mid-stretch and went on to win by 1 length over Treasury Bill. Caballo Del Cielo finished third and the favorite, Belvin, faded to finish last of six after setting a brisk early clip. Shakin It Up and Belvin are both trained by Bob Baffert. Shakin It Up, a Midnight Lute colt, got 7 furlongs on a fast track in 1:22.48.
"He put me in the race right away," said winning rider David Flores, "so I just had to be patient and wait for the pocket to open. That's pretty much what happened. When I asked him to go, he accelerated -- a tremendous acceleration."
Asked if Shakin It Up can go as far as 1 1/16 miles, he replied, "I say a mile and a quarter (the Kentucky Derby trip). That will be Baffert's job. All I have to do is do the right thing on the horse when I get on him."
Baffert said he's not sure what path the colt will take.
"I didn't really have him super cranked up for the race," he said. "But we've always thought highly of him, so we'll just find something for him. I don't know."
Monday's Southwest Stakes at Oaklawn Park winds up the long early phase of the new points system concocted by Churchill Downs to determine eligibility for the Run for the Roses. The two-leg "Kentucky Derby Championship Series" begins Feb. 23 with the Fasig-Tipton Fountain of Youth at Gulfstream Park and the Risen Star at Fair Grounds. Points to the first four finishers will increase to 50 for first, 20 for second, 10 for third and 5 for fourth. Shanghai Bobby and Goldencents currently are tied atop the rankings with 24 points each. Oxbow has 11 and several others have 10.
Ten are entered for the Southwest and Baffert trains the 7-5 morning-line favorite, Super Ninety Nine. That Pulpit colt is coming off an allowance win at Santa Anita but also finished second to Really Mr Greely in the Grade III Hollywood Prevue in November. Shakin It Up finished third in that race.
Laurel Park
Funnys Approval, a 22-1 long shot, got the lead in Saturday's $250,000, Grade II Barbara Fritchie Handicap for fillies and mares and wouldn't give it up, holding off the favorite, My Wandy's Girl, in the late going to win by 3/4 length. Withgreatpleasure finished third, also at a big price. Funnys Approval, a 4-year-old Outrageouslyfunny filly, ran 7 furlongs on a muddy, sealed track in 1:25.29 with Juan Vargas up. She came into the race off a maiden victory and two allowance wins at Mountaineer -- all on "off" tracks.
"When I saw the forecast, I was happy about it. I was doing the rain dance," said winning trainer Jose Lopez.
Vargas said the run was basically uncontested.
"I was waiting for someone to pressure us but by the half-mile pole I could relax a little," he said. "Turning for home, I did feel the horse to our inside but she had another gear to the wire."
Concealed Identity came from last of five to win Saturday's $75,000 John B. Campbell Handicap, scoring by 3/4 length after a roughly run stretch drive. Service for Ten finished second, 1 3/4 lengths better than Norman Asbjornson, but the stewards reversed that positioning because of bumping in the late going. Concealed Identity, a 5-year-old Smarty Jones gelding, ran 9 furlongs in the mud in 1:52.29 with Trevor McCarthy in the irons.
Santa Anita
Gary Stevens, whose riding comeback suddenly is red hot, piloted Great Hot to a front-running victory in Saturday's $200,000, Grade II Santa Maria Stakes for fillies and mares. The 5-year-old, Brazilian-bred, Orientate mare finished 1/2 length better than the late-running favorite, Book Review. Lady of Fifty was third. Great Hot finished 1 1/16 miles on a fast track in 1:43.08. Great Hot usually is in the mix in her races but had not won since taking the Grade II Lexus Raven Run Stakes at Keeneland on Oct. 22, 2011. She finished ninth in the Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Sprint last fall. Winning trainer A.C. Avila said he had a brief strategy discussion with Stevens, who ended a long retirement earlier in the Santa Anita meeting.
"I said, 'I'm going to do one thing. I'm going to give you a leg up and you are the boss.' How am I going to tell Gary Stevens how to ride?" Stevens said, "It was so sweet. I moved her out about three wide and she just shut it down and was listening to my commands all the way around. I was just being a passenger until the head of the stretch."
Asked about his recent successes after struggling early in his comeback, the jockey said: "It feels good. I've had that feeling before. I guess that's why I came back, I had that feeling, and I wanted it again."
Judy in Disguise ran best late to take Saturday's $75,000 Sweet Life Stakes for 3-year-old fillies by 1/2 length over Doinghardtimeagain. Heir Kitty finished third. Judy in Disguise, a British-bred daughter of Elusive Quality, ran 6 1/2 furlongs down the grassy hill in 1:12.25, toting Rafael Bejarano.
Tampa Bay Downs
Swift Warrior rallied four-wide in Saturday's $150,000, Grade III Tampa Bay Stakes and was just up in time to win by 1/2 length. The favorite, Doubles Partner, dead-heated with Alley Oop Oop for second and third and the early leader, El Commodore, faded to get home fourth. Swift Warrior, a 5-year-old son of First Samurai, ran 1 1/16 miles on good turf in 1:43.14 with Jose Espinoza in the irons. It was his second straight graded stakes win, following the Grade III John B. Connally Turf Cup last month at Sam Houston Race Park.
"This horse is my best friend," Espinoza said. "He is a real professional. If we need speed, he has it. If we decide to wait on the speed like today, he will do that. I was able to wait with him until the final turn and he made a response there that won us the race. All he needed was a clear path, and we had that."
Oaklawn Park
Don't Tell Sophia quickly took command turning for home in Saturday's $100,000 Bayakoa Stakes for fillies and mares and showed her heels to a quartet of rivals, winning by 6 1/2 lengths. She's All In finished second and the favorite, Tiz Miz Sue, settled for third. Don't Tell Sophia, a 5-year-old Congaree mare, got the 1 1/16 miles over a fast track in 1:44.00 with Robby Albarado riding. She has won three straight.
"She's a monster right now," said winning trainer Phil Sims. "Having a race over the track didn't hurt. It was a definite advantage. She's such a big filly. She always just kind of falls out of the gate. I just told Robby to not get in trouble in the small field."
He said the Grade III Azeri Stakes on March 16 "is a definite."
Seeking Ms Shelley shadowed the pace in Sunday's $60,000 Spring Fever Stakes for fillies and mares, then dueled down the stretch with Lulu Wong before prevailing by 1/2 length. The favorite, Lady Diva Ga Ga, finished third and her rider lost a claim of foul against the winner. Seeking Ms Shelley, a 7-year-old Cactus Ridge mare, ran 5 1/2 furlongs on a fast track in 1:04.62 with Albarado winning another one.
Fair Grounds
Ante Up Annie engaged front-running favorite Mucho Mans Gold with a furlong and a half to run in Saturday's $60,000 Sarah Lane's Oates Stakes for state-bred 3-year-old fillies, eventually prevailing by 1/2 length. Dreamglider finished third. Ante Up Annie, a daughter of Majestic Warrior, ran 1 mile and 70 yards on a fast track in 1:45.34 with Brian Hernandez Jr. riding. The race was moved off the turf.
Good Deed went right to the lead in the $75,000 Mardi Gras Handicap for fillies and mares on Fat Tuesday and held on late to win by 1 length over Beat the Blues. Ire finished third. The favorite, My My My Maria, did not fire and finished fifth. Good Deed, a 4-year-old Broken Vow filly, ran 6 furlongs on a fast track in 1:11.12 with Shaun Bridgmohan up.
Elghayoor sat behind a speed duel through the first few furlongs in Sunday's $75,000 Dearly Precious Stakes for 3-year-old fillies, advanced in the lane and went on to win by 1/2 length over another closer, Railtown Girl.

Around the world:
(By RICHARD GROSS)
South African Juvenile Champion Soft Falling Rain is 6-for-6 after giving countryman trainer Mike de Kock a record fifth win in the featured 1,600-meter Group 3 UAE 2000 Guineas on the all-weather Tapeta at Meydan Thursday.
The son of National Assembly tracked the early leaders, then stormed to the front in the final 400 meters for a comfortable 2 1/4-lengths win over Snowboarder. It was a first UAE colt classic win for owner Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid al Maktoum and retained rider Paul Hanagan.
"We were a bit concerned about his stamina but he has seen it out well," said de Kock about his concerns following the colt's win in the 1,400-meters 2,000 Guineas Trial Jan. 17.
The trainer suggested he might stretch his charge yet another 300 meters in the 1,900-meters, all-weather UAE Derby on Dubai World Cup Day, March 30. But he noted the colt "has a lot of speed," so the Godolphin Mile is also under consideration.
"This is the birthday present I wanted," the trainer posted on his personal website.
His four other winners, Musir in 2010, Honour Devil in 2008, Asiatic Boy in 2007 and Victory Moon in 2003, all similarly gifted the 49-year-old trainer and went on to win the UAE Derby in those years.
De Kock is already thinking ahead to a June meet for his new talented charge.
"Wherever he runs here next, England and Royal Ascot would be a possibility for him," he said.
Soft Falling Rain cannot be considered for the U.S. Triple Crown. Foaled in the Southern Hemisphere, he is considered a 4-year-old by Northern Hemisphere standards.
While de Kock was jubilant, the race was a disappointing Dubai debut for Fortify. Running for Godolphin, the Darley-bred 3-year-old Triple Crown nominee with Kentucky Derby aspirations was runner up in the Grade II Hopeful at Saratoga and third in the Grade I Champagne at Belmont. But his New York success could only translate to a sixth-place finish in the first Meydan run for the son of Distorted Humor.
That disappointment and the feature score by de Kock's new star overshadowed a shower of card success by Godolphin runners as the Dubai World Cup Carnival passed the halfway mark. German-bred Kassiano, with Silvestre de Sousa aboard, opened the evening with a 1/4-length triumph over stablemate Royal Empire and lead Godolphin jockey Mickael Barzalona in the 2,200-meter Range Rover Evoque Trophy all-weather handicap. It was the sixth win with a second and third in eight starts for the 4-year-old gelding, his second win in the Godolphin colors this Carnival.
Moonwalk In Paris, with Ahmed Ajtebi, up danced to a 2-lengths win on the all-weather in the 1,600-meter Group 3 Firebreak Stakes over stablemate Fulbright. The surprise was the next-to-last, 13th-place finish of Daddy Long Legs, last year's UAE Derby winner, finishing 12 lengths off the winner. Mental, with Barzalona aboard, outwitted de Kock's Kavanagh by a length in the Al Shindagha Sprint. It was a disappointment for third-running Krypton Factor, winner of last year's Golden Shaheen.
Barzalona grabbed a double for himself and completed a triple for trainer Mahmood al Zarooni as Anatolian outclassed Topclas by 1 1/4 lengths to win the Range Rover Sport Trophy and close out the evening.
Black Caviar appeared back to top form Saturday, easily winning the Aus-Group 1 Lightning Stakes at Flemington -- a race now officially named for her. With Luke Nolen up, the super mare was running against competition for the first time since barely surviving a scare in gaining her 22nd win without loss in the Group 1 Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot. She returned to Australia after that race with torn muscles and ligaments. Eight months later, there was no problem. Black Caviar jumped well, led from the early yards and cruised home first by 2 1/2 lengths over stablemates Moment of Change and Golden Archer. Without much encouragement from Nolan, she finished the 1,000 meters in 55.42 seconds, a stakes record.
"She continues to amaze me," said trainer Peter Nolan.
Hong Kong
Lucky Nine surged to the front with 300 meters to run in Sunday's HK-Group 1 Chairman's Sprint Prize and held off fast-closing Frederick Engels to win by 3/4 length. Captain Sweet was another 3/4 length back in third. The 1,200 meters went in 1:09.28. The win in the second leg of the Hong Kong Speed Series was a vindication after Lucky Nine failed to fire in the first leg, the 1,000-meters HK-Group1 Kent & Curwen Centenary Sprint Cup. Lucky Nine, winner of the Group 1 Hong Kong Sprint in 2011, now could be ticketed for Dubai and a repeat try in the Group 1 Golden Shaheen on World Cup night, March 30. He finished third in that race last year from a challenging gate. But trainer Caspar Fownes said he may opt to stay home instead for the final leg of the Hong Kong series, the HK-Group 1 Queen's Silver Jubilee Cup March 17.
"I'll see how he comes out and the horse will tell me," Fownes said.
It was upset time in Sunday's HK-Group 1 Hong Kong Classic Cup. It Has To Be You shot to the lead along the rail and held on to win by 3/4 length over President Lincoln. Ashkiyr was third and the favorite, Gold-Fun, was fourth. The well-fancied Akeed Mofeed got home sixth. The race was the second in the Hong Kong Jockey Club's 4-year-old series. Gold Fun won the first, the HK-Group 1 Hong Kong Classic Mile.
"His form hasn't been too bad and the other day in the Classic Mile he was the last horse standing of the horses up on the speed, going a pretty good gallop," said winning trainer Tim Clark, who scored his first local Group 1 win. "All the horses that passed him came from back in the field. Today, from a good gate, we were able to travel smoother and he showed a really good turn of foot." Clark said he believes It Has To Be You can go longer than Sunday's 1,800 meters but "we just don't have the races to try it."
Grape Brandy is emerging as a star in Japanese dirt racing after his second straight win of the season in Sunday's Jpn-Group 1 February Stakes at Tokyo. After settling in mid-pack early, Grape Brandy let Espoir City take first run to the lead in the straight, then slowly reeled that one in to win by 3/4 length. Wonder Acute was a fast-closing third, just failing to catch Espoir City in the final jumps.
They really do race on the ice in Switzerland. Russian Tango won Sunday's Grosser Preis von St. Moritz narrowly over the aptly named Winterwind. Nightdance Paulo was well back in third in the race over 10 furlongs of frozen lake.

Office of the Indiana Secretary of State works to increase awareness of elder financial abuse
Indiana's investment watchdog reminds Hoosiers about World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, partners with IU Center for Aging Research to help protect senior citizens from financial exploitation
INDIANAPOLIS (June 14, 2011 ) – The Office of the Indiana Secretary of State continues an ongoing effort to protect aging Hoosiers from financial abuse during World Elder Abuse Awareness Day – Wednesday, June 15.
"The Indiana Office of the Secretary of State is committed to raising awareness of elder abuse and the preventative measures seniors can take in order to protect themselves from financial hardships caused by predators and con artists," Indiana Securities Commissioner Chris Naylor said. "Our work with the Elder Investment Fraud and Financial Exploitation Prevention program is vital to the financial wellbeing of our senior citizens and Hoosier families."
Indiana joins 22 other states promoting the Elder Investment Fraud and Financial Exploitation Prevention (EIFFE) program. The program aims to educate healthcare professionals about financial abuse of senior citizens and how to spot warning signs before they become victims. According to a survey conducted by the Investor Protection Trust in 2010, financial abuse impacts one in five Americans over the age of 65.
Indiana Investment Watch – a financial literacy program within the secretary of state's securities division – is partnering with the Indiana University Center for Aging Research to host EIFFE workshops to educate healthcare professionals.
"As the number of older adults increases, the number who are vulnerable to financial exploitation also increases," Dr. Chris Callahan, director of the Center for Aging Research, said. "Unfortunately, some of the diseases that affect the aging brain may make elders more susceptible to this type of exploitation. Training health care professionals to recognize at-risk patients adds another line of defense in protecting the financial security of our retirees."
Helping to further educate the public about this important issue, Indiana Investment Watch will be participating in the second annual World Elder Abuse Awareness Day community expo at the Public Safety Academy in Fort Wayne this Wednesday. Starting at 9 a.m. and ending at 1 p.m., visitors can learn about the dangers of financial abuse which target senior citizens.
About Indiana Investment Watch
Indiana Investment Watch educates Hoosiers about the various types of investment and mortgage fraud and promotes financial literacy in Hoosiers of all ages. The program is not funded by taxpayer dollars, but rather by the money collected from civil fines in securities fraud cases.
For more information, please visit http://www.indianainvestmentwatch.com/. If you feel you have been the victim of investment fraud, please call the secretary of state's securities division toll-free at 800-223-8791.

Do You Need A 504 Plan for Your Child's Health Needs?
March 21, 2014 in Special Education Articles by Jess
More students than ever are currently attending school with such chronic conditions as diabetes, cancer, asthma, severe food allergies and seizure disorders.
For more than a decade, I supervised the school nurses in an 11,000-student school district. I often consulted with parents, principals, and nurses about students' health concerns.
If your child has a specific condition, you are your child's best advocate. Make sure you are thoroughly informed about your child's needs and rights. It is critically important for you to communicate with the school principal, school nurse, and your child's teachers. Be actively involved in helping the school to understand and provide the services and attention your child needs to succeed.
Prescriptions, doctor's orders and other necessary paperwork should be updated by parents at the start of each school year or when there is a change in your child's treatment. You should also check the school's policies, protocols and guidelines in regard to the handling of specific health conditions.
Often, health issues can be addressed successfully by developing a medical management plan that gives the school guidance on your child's specific needs. Creating a medical management plan for how your child's health needs will be handled at school should be a team effort that includes you, your child, school personnel, and your child's doctors. It is very important that the plan is documented in writing.
Parents often ask about whether they need a 504 Plan to manage their child's health needs at school. Whereas a medical management plan provides guidelines, a 504 Plan is legally binding. It is your call whether you want to request a 504 Plan for your child.
School districts are required by the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. § 794) to provide all students, regardless of disability, with a "free appropriate public education." This provision, found in section 504, applies to any condition - physical, mental, or emotional - that might interfere with a student's ability to receive an education in a public school. That means that no student with a disability can be excluded from school. 504 Plans are comprehensive plans created collaboratively by parents, nurses, and other interested parties to address the student's individual needs.
Severe peanut allergies, diabetes, and seizure disorders are a few of the conditions that may or may not fall under the Rehabilitation Act. For example, 504 Plans may address the use of anaphylactic medications, such as epi-pens, and how staff will be utilized to recognize and respond to allergy symptoms. 504 plans sometimes require nurses to be on school premises at all times to administer glucagon for diabetes or seizure disorder medication. 504 plans may also address specific responsibilities of students and staff.
A student must have a condition that "substantially limits one or more major life activities," to qualify for a 504 Plan. Students have to be evaluated by the school district to determine whether they are eligible. The district will take into consideration the age and capability of the child. If parents are dissatisfied with the outcome, they may appeal.
In addition to the Rehabilitation Act, several other laws protect students with health issues. These include the 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. While the Rehabilitation Act offers protection to public school students, the ADA extends protection to students in private schools and day care centers
What are the pros and cons of a 504 Plan?
• A 504 Plan is a legal document. 504 Plans can be enforced in court, or with the United States Office of Civil Rights
• A 504 Plan makes expectations for all concerned -- parents, students, classmates, teachers, aides, nurses, and administrators – crystal clear.
• 504 Plans can provide specific guidelines for handling your child's health issues even if there are changes in school personnel.
• 504 Plans can address your child's health needs in a variety of school-related activities, including field trips, fire drills, lunch, and extra-curricular activities.
• Obtaining a 504 Plan will be time-consuming. There will be an evaluation and assessment of your child and several meetings to arrive at agreement on the specifics of the plan.
• Although you are not required to have a lawyer, you may decide to hire one to represent your child's interests or to appeal a decision. This could be quite costly.
The bottom line has to do with the seriousness of your child's symptoms and how capable he/she is to take care of his/her health needs. You are the best judge. It is your decision whether you want to have a legally enforceable plan or if you are comfortable with a medical management plan. Whichever you choose, it is always a good idea to make sure everything is in writing. If you are in doubt, consult with your child's doctor and an attorney, who has expertise in this area.
Dr. Meryl Ain has worked in several large Long Island, New York school districts as a central office administrator, teacher, and school building administrator. She shares her insights and expertise on her blog, Your Education Doctor. Dr. Ain offers consulting and other professional service to individuals, groups, teachers and school districts.

Gee's start goes south early in Mets' defeat
ST. LOUIS -- Mets manager Terry Collins was preparing to defend one of his players, Jordany Valdespin, for the umpteenth time Tuesday afternoon when he stopped, sighed and made a pointed observation.
"To be honest, one of the things that's caused this is that we're not playing very good," Collins said. "There's nothing else to deal with."View Full Game Coverage
ST. LOUIS -- Mets manager Terry Collins was preparing to defend one of his players, Jordany Valdespin, for the umpteenth time Tuesday afternoon when he stopped, sighed and made a pointed observation.
"To be honest, one of the things that's caused this is that we're not playing very good," Collins said. "There's nothing else to deal with."View Full Game Coverage
Losing, as Collins noted, breeds questioning. Blame seeps through cracks in the clubhouse walls. Tempers flare. Players walk around on edge.
These are some of the obstacles the Mets have faced throughout their five-game losing streak, which included Tuesday's 10-4 defeat to the Cardinals at Busch Stadium, their 13th loss in 17 games.
"We've gone through a bad streak, and it's been two weeks long," Collins said. "And we can't sit there and hide the fact, or try to make anything positive out of it.
"For us to be successful, we've got to pitch and we've got to score some runs, help our pitcher out," the manager continued. "We haven't done either. Our bullpen's taxed. We haven't caught the ball at times. So it's everything. It's all departments. We've got to play better, we've got to coach better, we've got to manage better. We're not going to point fingers at anybody. We've just got to play better. We've got to do a better job."
As in several of their recent losses, the Mets thrust themselves into an all-but-inescapable early hole. Starter Dillon Gee walked the first batter he faced before giving up Matt Holliday's RBI double and Allen Craig's two-run single in the first. Additional clumps of offense came on a trio of RBI singles in the third inning, as well as Carlos Beltran's three-run homer off Robert Carson in the fifth. By the time Jon Jay drove a solo shot over the center-field wall in the sixth inning, the Mets had effectively lost the game.
"I don't know what's going on," said Gee, who considered his previous start one of his best of the season. "I don't even know what to say, really. I didn't feel all that bad tonight. I'm a ground-ball guy, and I think seven ground-ball hits got through. I don't know what else to do."
Collins was a bit more critical of his starting pitcher.
"I've never seen him throw the ball so much up here," the manager said, raising his hand parallel to his chest. "That's just not where he pitches."
Unlike in several of their recent defeats, the Mets did battle back with four runs in the sixth off Cardinals starter John Gast, highlighted by Marlon Byrd's two-run homer.
It was hardly consolation for a team that had not scored more than three runs in a game since May 5.
"We have to take that inning's approach into the whole game tomorrow," Byrd said.
The Mets have spent the past week losing every which way, from inadequate starting pitching to derisory relief work to an utter lack of offense. They have shaken up their lineup, shuttled players back and forth from Triple-A Las Vegas and even acquired a veteran bat, Rick Ankiel. None of it has altered their results.
Though chemistry breeds winning, the opposite may be even truer. And the Mets have done little winning of late.
Their season began with a decent amount of promise, including two consecutive victories and five in their first seven games. As recently as April 24, they were above .500.
But since that time, few of the Mets have held up the bargain. Matt Harvey has been sublime and David Wright his steady self, while several of their teammates have provided flashes of adequacy.
Other bright spots have been few and far between, which is why the Mets ended Tuesday's play with the second-worst record in the National League. Nor will things become any easier going forward, with two of baseball's hottest pitchers scheduled to oppose them in their next two games. Last time through the rotation, Cardinals starters Shelby Miller and Adam Wainwright combined for 18 shutout innings of three-hit ball, striking out 20 and walking one.
Consider that the next challenge for the challenged Mets.
"We're learning on the job with some of these guys," Collins said. "We've got to continue to move forward and try to get them to understand what it's going to take and try to keep their attitudes up. Certainly they're down because of the way things are going, and they can't be. It's hard up here. This is a tough league, and you can't get down. You've got to just look at tonight, go look at your films tomorrow and figure out what you've got to do better."

Shiny Pokémon
Shiny Pokémon or Alternate coloration is a word that describes a Pokémon who is colored differently than it's original species. It's one of the many differences that a Pokémon can have within its species. In the video games, Shiny Pokémon may have a slight color change over their normal colors, or have one completely different. For example, a Pokémon like Pikachu has a slightly different shade:
Not Shiny
while a Pokémon like Kirlia completely changes colors:
Not Shiny
In the Games
Shiny Pokémon was first introduced in Generation II. This was likely because Pokémon Gold, Pokémon Silver and Pokémon Crystal were the first games that introduced color to the series (they were played on the Game Boy Color).When a shiny Pokémon appears in the wild or from a trainer's Poké Ball, stars will surround it and make a pinging sound effect.Generation II, this sound happens before the Pokémon's call, while in Generation III and Generation IV it happens afterward. In Pokémon Battle Revolution, a flash of light circles the Pokémon upon its release from the Poké Ball.
On the Pokémon's status screen, its shiny status is indicated in Generation II as three small stars next to its gender and in Generation III and IV as a large star on the status screen. In Generation III the Pokémon's background colour, on the status screen, will be a lighter colour and the colour of the Pokédex number will be Gold. In Generation IV, the Pokémon's Pokédex number will also be colored red instead of black.
The chance of encountering a wild Pokémon in the wild is and will always be 1/8192. Many people believe that one way of increasing your chances of getting one is by using the Poké Radar technique, which doesn't always work, because of the Pokémon who ruin the Chain most of the time. It is very hard to get 40 of the same Pokémon to appear one after another. However, the algorithm for finding a shiny Pokemon using the Pokeradar is available, and it gives a 1/200 (roughly .05%) chance of finding a shiny Pokemon when the chain has reached and surpassed 40.
Because the chances of legitimately catching a shiny Pokemon is rare, various hacking devices such as Action Replay and Gameshark have included a code to allow all wild Pokemon to become shiny. These do appear as hacks in the various legitimacy checkers which are available. There is however another way of obtaining a shiny easily, which will not show up on a checker. RNG abuse uses the Random Number Generator inside the games, which determines things like how many paces a NPC takes, and also the odds of seeing a shiny. Through a downloadable program, which requires data about your game, and about a pokemon you have just caught, you are able to make the next egg you hatch a shiny. While considered to be a glitch, there is no way to tell if a Shiny Pokemon was obtained via RNG abuse or not. Finally, there is one time consuming way of trying to see a shiny. This is called soft-resetting, and the player saves in front of a pokemon which can only be battled by interacting with it. An example is a Legendary, or the starter Pokemon. The player then proceeds to battle the Pokemon, or in the case of a starter, enter battle with it. If the pokemon is not a shiny, the buttons L, R, Select, and Start are pressed to return the game to the opening animations. The process continues until the pokemon is shiny.
In the AnimeShiny Pokémon in the anime have appeared even before they were seen in the games. Probably the most significant one is the Shiny Ho-oh seen by Ash in the very first episode. Ash has also caught a Shiny Noctowl, which was seen in the episode Fowl Play!

Islanders down Lightning
Uniondale, NY – Matt Martin netted the game-winning goal with 6:26 left to give the New York Islanders a 4-2 triumph over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday.
Michael Grabner, Andrew MacDonald and Josh Bailey also lit the lamp for the Islanders, who have won three of their last four games.
Evgeni Nabokov stopped 19 shots in the win.
"We weren't happy with our home record, but it is something we wanted to battle through. We like playing in this building and in front of these fans. It was nice to get a win for them," Bailey said.
Matt Carle had one goal and one assist and Richard Panik added a tally for the Lightning, who have dropped two of their last three games.
Ben Bishop made 24 saves but allowed three goals in the setback.
"I guess at this point of the season every loss hurts just a little bit more. If you're not picking up points, someone else is," Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper said.
With the win, New York holds a two-point edge over the Washington Capitals for the final spot in the Eastern Conference with 42 points.
Grabner's slap shot with 5:15 left in the first gave the Islanders a 1-0 lead. Grabner corralled a loose puck in the Tampa Bay zone, skated to the net and ripped one past Bishop for his 12th goal of the season.
Panik took a pass from Vincent Lecavalier from behind the net and quickly ripped a snap shot into the back of the net to tie the game with 15:16 left in the middle session.
Bailey, though, netted a wrister nearly four minutes later to give New York a 2-1 edge. Kyle Okposo skated to the right circle then centered the disc to Bailey who banged it home.
Carle netted the equalizer four minutes into the third with a backhand. Steven Stamkos ripped a shot from the point that bounced off Nabokov's chest, but Carle was there to clean up the miss.
Martin skated into the Lightning zone from the right side and made his way into the slot before ripping a wrister into the back of the net for the game winner.
MacDonald added an empty netter to account for the final margin.
Game Notes
New York will host the Flyers on Tuesday ... The Lightning will visit the Washington Capitals on Sunday ... New York came up empty on its only power play chance.

A coloboma is a gap in part of the structures of the eye. This gap can be large or small and is normally in the bottom part of the eye.
A coloboma is caused when a baby's eyes do not develop properly during pregnancy. The eyes develop between the fourth and anything up to the fifteenth week of pregnancy, though development is usually completed around eight weeks. This condition occurs in about 1 in 10,000 births.
Coloboma can affect one eye (unilateral) or both eyes (bilateral). Coloboma can affect a number of different parts of the eye. A coloboma does not mean that there is a hole in the eye, but that certain structures or parts within the eye did not fully form.
A coloboma can affect the iris which is the coloured part at the front of the eye. It can affect the lens, the part of the eye which helps focus light onto the retina.
Coloboma can also affect the choroid which is a thin network of blood vessels which help to keep the retina healthy. Finally, it can affect the retina at the back of the eye. Very rarely coloboma can also affect the optic disc or the eyelid.
A coloboma forms whilst the baby grows in the womb. The eyes develop early during pregnancy and start off as little buds. Usually the eye folds in on itself as it develops which leaves a small gap called the foetal cleft.
The foetal cleft helps maintain the blood supply to the developing parts of the eye. In the final stage of eye development during pregnancy the cleft seals up from the back of the eye forwards and all the structures of the eye are formed. In an eye with coloboma this gap does not fully close and remains in some of the structures of the eye.
If the hospital staff suspect a child has a coloboma, which is normally first noticed by the possible keyhole-like shape of the pupil, then an ophthalmologist (eye doctor) will carry out a full eye examination.
The ophthalmologist would normally use an instrument called an ophthalmoscope to examine the inside of a child's eyes. The ophthalmoscope is held close to the eye but will not touch it. A baby may be given a general anaesthetic to allow the ophthalmologist to carry out a eye examination. This allows the doctor to look thoroughly at the baby's eye whilst he or she is still without causing any distress.
This kind of thorough eye examination at the hospital will help them to find out how much of the eye has been affected by the coloboma. It may be hard to tell how much a child's sight has been affected until they are older. This is because small children aren't able to communicate in words how good their vision is.
The hospital may also carry out other examinations to check on your child's general health
The affect coloboma has on vision depends a lot on which part of the eye is affected and how big the gap is. Normally the gap is at the bottom of the eye (where a 6 is on the face of a clock) and runs from the front to the back of the eye. Coloboma may affect only the front of the eye if most of the cleft has sealed up. It may affect the eye from the front to the centre and back if more of the cleft has failed to close.
Most commonly coloboma only affects the iris. Children with this type of coloboma often have fairly good vision. Their pupil may be shaped a bit like a keyhole. They may have some problems with and dislike bright lights because the iris, which usually limit the amount of light entering the eye by controlling the size of the pupil may not work properly. Too much light entering the eye can cause discomfort and distort the image created. Measures can be taken to help protect a child from sunlight such as tinted glasses, sun hats or sunblinds in cars.
If the coloboma goes further back into the eye then the child may have more visual problems, especially if the retina is involved. If this has happened then central vision may be affected. Central vision is used for detailed activities such as reading, writing and close work or play. If this is the case, specialist support services for children with a visual impairment will be involved.
Support services can help a child and his or her carers learn how to make the most of the vision the child has. Specialist services are mentioned at the end of this leaflet. They can provide information on development, play, education and many other issues.
Coloboma may affect one eye more than the other, so one eye may have better vision than the other.
Sometimes children with coloboma may have other problems and some 'syndromes' which include coloboma, such as CHARGE, a rare condition which stands for:
C - coloboma
H - heart defects
A - atresia of the choanae (problems with the nose passages)
R - retarded growth and developments
G - genital hypoplasia (undescended testicles)
E - ear abnormalities.
The hospital and medical staff will tell you if there are any other existing health issues and offer the relevant treatment and support services from a very early age.
Most cases of coloboma appear without any previous family history. In some families coloboma can be inherited. If a child is diagnosed with coloboma it is advisable for the child's parents to have an eye examination. This is because coloboma can be present without causing any visual problems. Therefore a parent might have coloboma but not know it. If an eye examination detected coloboma then a parent could explore inheritance patterns with the hospital or genetic counsellor.
The genetic factor responsible for most cases of coloboma has not yet been identified. Research is on-going to identify genes and any environmental factors that may cause coloboma.
If coloboma has occurred in your family and you would like to talk through the issues of genetics then you could ask your GP to refer you to the local clinical genetics department who could explore this with you.
There is no treatment for coloboma at present. A child with coloboma will receive specialist care at hospital during the early years to monitor the effect of the coloboma and their eye health. The frequency of these checks will depend on the child's needs. Children who have coloboma can be more at risk of glaucoma (increased eye pressure) and retinal detachment. There are treatments for both of these conditions which the hospital would explore with you.
If your child's eye health is stable and no further complications appear then they will usually attend an eye test every six months up to the age of seven years and then annually. These eye tests will usually take place with an optician or orthoptist.
Children with coloboma may need glasses. Glasses cannot correct the vision problems caused by the coloboma. However, glasses can correct short-sightedness or long-sightedness which can help to correct the parts of vision that haven't been affected by coloboma.
Sometimes cosmetic contact lenses may be considered at a later stage. These can help to make the pupil look round rather than keyhole shaped.
Prescription sunglasses due to the light-sensitivity may also be suggested, as may some low vision aids and equipment to help a child make the most of their sight.

The Des Plaines Oasis overlooking the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway, one of the glass-walled icons of the Illinois Tollway system, will be torn down next year to make way for the road's widening, officials announced Thursday.
Opened in 1959 and long a stopping point for fast food and quick naps, the bridgelike pavilion will close in April to allow for the addition of a fourth lane in each direction under the Tollway's $2.2 billion reconstruction of Interstate 90 from O'Hare International Airport to Elgin.
The oasis is also smack-dab where a planned new tollway skirting the western edge of O'Hare will someday intersect with I-90.
The oasis "is an important part of our history, but it's important to do the (rebuilding) job right," Tollway Executive Director Kristi Lafleur said.
Motorists in desperate need of gas, caffeine or a Slurpee need not despair, however. The gas stations and convenience stores operated by 7-Eleven on either side of the tollway will remain open, officials said.
For generations, the Tollway's over-the-road oases have long been popular stops, if for nothing else than a way to quiet the kids during vacation trips. They've also been refuges in snowstorms and farmers markets in summer.
The Des Plaines Oasis parking lot was the setting for a scene in the 1980 movie "The Blues Brothers."
Customers often opt for seats by the oversized windows, which give them a bird's-eye view of the traffic streaming below.
While the loss of the Des Plaines Oasis is "bittersweet," it will be outweighed by the benefits from the expanded roadway, faster travel times and less congestion, Lafleur said.
Darren Grady stopped by the oasis Thursday for a quick lunch before driving back to Chicago from Sycamore. Grady, 32, an attorney who lives in Wicker Park, said he travels I-90 four or five times a month for work.
"To be honest, I would much prefer a tollway with less traffic than the convenience of an oasis," Grady said. "To me, that's a priority to getting … Taco Bell, which I can get at other locations. I can't get a better highway other places."
For Stephanie Bradshaw's family, the oasis is more than just a pit stop. Doctors diagnosed Bradshaw's daughter with a medical condition last year that has the family driving from their home near Rockford to the Comer Children's Hospital in Chicago every six weeks.
So stopping by the oasis for a quick bite and a restroom break has developed into a tradition.
"That would be awful if they closed it," Bradshaw said.
The Tollway's board approved an agreement with oases lessee SFI Chicago Tollway LLC to pay SFI $9.3 million in termination costs in accord with a formula outlined in the original 25-year lease agreement.
SFI paid the Tollway $813,000 in 2012 to lease and operate all seven oases, not counting the fuel stations and convenience stores operated by 7-Eleven, the Tollway said. Six of the oases are pavilions that span the toll roads.
SFI took over the oases in 2010 after the former operator, Los Angeles-based Wilton Partners, struggled to rent spaces to vendors and defaulted on its lease with the Tollway in 2008. Wilton subsequently lost them in foreclosure.
While the news of the closing caught customers off guard, some employees said they had a sense that something was coming.
"I thought it was a rumor," said a disappointed Shaketa Ellis, 21, who works at Panda Express.
Like other workers, Ellis expressed concern about the future of her job. She said she hopes to transfer to another location within the company before the wrecking ball swings.
Traffic counts show that in 2012, about 6,500 vehicles a day stopped at the oasis or adjoining fuel stations and convenience stores, the Tollway said.
Removal of the oasis is also necessary as the Tollway proceeds with construction of the Elgin-O'Hare Western Access project, officials said.
Construction of the north-south leg of that project, connecting the Tri-State Tollway (I-294) with I-90, is not scheduled until 2018-2025.
Relocating and rebuilding the facility would have been prohibitively expensive, officials said.
Closing of the oasis building and utility work will begin in April, with removal of bridge structure expected in June 2014.
The I-90 rebuilding and widening project will create eight lanes of traffic from the Kennedy Expressway to Randall Road, and six lanes from Randall Road to I-39.
The widened Addams is projected to handle up to 30,000 more vehicles per day and be completed by 2016.
But motorist Ken Ivaska, who stops by the oasis almost every day for gas or coffee, isn't sure the additional lanes are going to solve the I-90 congestion problem.
"The real problem is the Kennedy," said Ivaska, 48, of Des Plaines, as he filled up his van at the gas station. "If they're not widening the Kennedy a lane, they're just going to push the bottleneck down."

'Volunteer to Make Benton Better' theme for Benton Chamber Banquet
The Benton Area Chamber of Commerce has announced plans for the organization's annual banquet.
The banquet is scheduled for Feb. 5, 2013. Tickets may be purchased by contacting the chamber at 501-860-7004. Individuals tickets are $28 and tables for eight are available for $200.
The family life center at Holland Chapel Baptist Church will again serve as the venue for the annual gathering.
Keynote speaker will be Chad Pregracke, the founder of Living Lands & Waters, an organization dedicated to the preservation and cleaning of waterways in the United States.
According to the organization's website, Pregracke's desire to clean up the environment started early in life.
The Mississippi River was literally Chad Pregracke's backyard while growing up near East Moline, Ill. The son of educators and river enthusiasts, KeeKee and Gary Pregracke, he and his older brother, Brent, spent the majority of their time on, in and around the Mississippi and Illinois rivers.
At the age of 17, he started making calls to government agencies to notify them of river problems, assuming someone would take care of them. Year after year passed by and the problems only worsened. In 1997 Chad decided that, if no one else was going to clean up the river, he would be the one.
In 1998 at the age of 23, Chad founded Living Lands & Waters. Today, the organization has grown to include a full staff and fleet of equipment. The crew averages nine states a year along the Mississippi, Illinois and Ohio rivers, as well as many of their tributaries. Since the project's inception, Chad, his crew, and more than 60,000 volunteers have collected in excess of 6 million pounds of debris from the nation's greatest rivers.
Most recently, he expanded the mission of the organization to include Big River Educational Outreach, The Million Trees Project, and the Adopt-a-River Mile programs.
Chad was the recipient of the Jefferson Award for Public Service, America's version of the Nobel Prize, in June 2002. He accepted this award in the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, D.C., with other award recipients: Rudolph Giuliani, Bill and Melinda Gates, and Lilly Tartikoff.
Chad also is the author of "From the Bottom Up: One Man's Crusade to Clean America's Rivers."

A rejuvenated and resurgent Nick Dougherty will enter the final round of his Challenge Tour debut as the outright leader after a flawless four under par round of 68 at the Pacific Rubiales Colombia Classic took him to seven under par.
The three-time European Tour winner has been rolling back the years at Country Club de Barranquilla after a long winter break from the game and enters a final round in contention for the first time since he won the BMW International Open on The European Tour in 2009.
The 29 year old is one shot clear of his compatriots Philip Archer, a two time Challenge Tour winner, and fellow Challenge Tour debutante Tyrrell Hatton.
In much more favourable conditions at the Caribbean coast venue outside the city of Barranquilla, Dougherty started with a bang as he reached the turn in three under par thanks to birdies at the second, fifth and seventh holes.
He gained another shot at the par five 11th before a steady run home, with seven successive pars, to sign for his best round of the week following opening rounds of 71 and 70, respectively.
"No bogeys is always good," reflected the Liverpudlian. "It was a battle again, you just have to work your ball around the course. I'm obviously pleased with not having made any mistakes and all in all I fared really well on a tough day.
"I'm a little tentative at times on the course but that's expected after a long layoff and also what's gone before that, but I feel like all in all I'm dealing with it really well. I'm committing to my shots really well.
"The thing about this course is you have to try and pick up the shots on the birdie holes and get through the tough ones, about half of the holes can really bite you so I've done well to this point to avoid trouble by playing smart and hitting it where I want to hit it."The last time Dougherty entered a final round in contention, he went on to win with a final round of 64 helping him overtake Retief Goosen and Bernhard Langer to take the BMW International Open in Germany.
But Dougherty insists he will temper his expectations going into 'Championship Sunday' in Colombia, having already far surpassed the ones he harboured entering the week.
"I wouldn't have said coming here that I was ready for it but I seem to have fared really well so far so I'm delighted with that," he continued. "To come here and have played well for the first three days and given myself a chance on Sunday, it's very pleasing.
"The last time I was in with a chance was when I won so I know what to do, I have won at the highest level and beaten some of the players in the world but that's not what I'm thinking about now. Most important for me now is to try and be as free as I can. Like I said before, it's baby steps and for me, that's about not stressing myself and not getting in my own way."
There were two players from different ends of the spectrum right behind Dougherty in tied second, the extremely experienced 39 year old Archer and young 20 year old Englishman Tyrrell Hatton, who is playing on an invite this week in his first European-sanctioned professional tournament.
Archer, whose last win at the 2011 ALLIANZ Open Cotes d'Armor Bretagne came in pounding winds, started well with three birdies in his opening five holes, at the second, fourth and fifth before a bogey at the eighth meant he reached the turn in 34.
A par at the 10th hole was followed by a birdie-bogey-birdie run and another birdie at the 15th saw him home in four under par with a 68 to add to his successive opening rounds of 71.
"I got off to a quick start, which was nice, and then I maintained it really," said the Warrington man. "The wind was definitely less than the first couple of days but you could still lose one way to the right or left if you're not concentrating, but I just kept it in play and holed a few putts early on.
"I had the lead in Brittany and I'll be chasing Nick down this time so it's a little bit different but I'll be doing just the same as the last few days, playing for the pars mostly and then attacking the holes you can attack."
Hatton, meanwhile, is making his Challenge Tour debut having turned professional just last year, after missing out on a Walker Cup appearance despite being selected on the squad, and he is thoroughly enjoying his first taste.
"I'm definitely happy with that round," he said afterwards. "It's moving day so it's nice to post a low number and I didn't have a bogey either, which is brilliant. I'm used to the course now, you know where the wind's going so that makes it easier. It's great to make the cut and hopefully now I can get in contention.
"I was playing well prior to this so I was hoping to at least make the cut but it's been a great week so far. The excitement has helped me and tomorrow I just want to keep it the same and hopefully some putts will drop."
Denmark's Morton Orum Madsen was one of the three players a shot further back in tied fourth after a stunning six under par round of 66, which included four successive birdies from the fourth hole onwards, before another on the ninth to reach the turn in four under par.
Birdies at the 11th and 16th consolidated that score and meant that he was nine under for his previous 35 holes, having recovered from a double bogey on the first hole of his second round to card a three under par 69 on Friday.
He joined 2010 Apulia San Domenico Grand Final winner Matt Haines and another Englishman Chris Hanson on five under.
Haines was on stunning form until the final stretch, moving to seven under for the day through 16 holes thanks to seven birdies before he suffered back to back bogeys on the 17th and 18th to sign for a five under par 67.Hanson, meanwhile, struggled to make headway in a front nine which included three birdies and three bogeys but birdies at the 11th and 14th kept him in contention with a two under par round of 70.
