Modeling radium fate and transport in a subterranean estuary
Ann Mulligan, Marine Policy Center
Matthew Charette, Marine Chemistry & Geochemistry
Radium isotopes have been used extensively in the past 10-15 years as tracers of submarinegroundwater discharge from coastal aquifers. A basic assumption in using these tracers is thatradium behavior in the subsurface is relatively straightforward and easily predictable. Recent work has shown that radium behavior in the subsurface is highly sensitive to groundwater salinity however. In fresh water radium is highly sorbed onto aquifer solids and is relatively immobile. Conversely, radium is more highly dissolved in saline water and therefore more mobile in saline groundwater. Interestingly, simple mixing calculations between a low radium low salinity groundwater and low radium high salinity seawater suggest that sorbed radium is a maximum at intermediate salinities. This unexpected result suggests that numerical modeling will be extremely useful in unraveling complex radium dynamics in coastal aquifers, particularly on seasonal time scales, when the salinity in the groundwater changes in response to changes in inland recharge. This project represents a first attempt at transient spatial modeling of radium fate and transport in a coastal aquifer and will be a significant step forward in unraveling the complexities of radium behavior. Results from this work will help us understand observed radium distributions within and flux from coastal aquifers and will help reduce the largeuncertainties in radium-based estimates of submarine groundwater discharge rates. This project also represents a first step toward more complex geochemical modeling of coastal aquifer systems.

Volunteering abroad can be a great way to contribute to the global community and foster personal growth, and there are a wide range of opportunities available with many different organizations. Teaching abroad allows you to become integrated into a foreign culture, while helping your own students communicate in a global culture. Additionally, abroad internships are wonderful opportunities to use the theoretical or academic training you will receive at Barnard in a practical setting. Please see below for more information on ways to volunteer, teach and intern abroad. Please contact the Office of Career Development if you would like to make an appointment to discuss individual plans to volunteer, teach or intern abroad.
Volunteering Abroad
Many students seek to volunteer abroad to get international experience in a field of interest; learn about development issues; learn about another culture, language and way of life, while making a positive contribution; see a part of the world in a different light; or increase their personal marketability. You can go for a long or short-term placement, individually or with a group. For some opportunities, you pay for the experience; sometimes your travel or living expenses will be covered. If you have development experience, you can apply to be a project leader or for a grant to fund your own project. Whatever your experiences, in most volunteer positions you will find yourself presented with a wealth of possibilities beyond those outlined in the job description and you will be able to stretch your ingenuity and creativity.
Teaching Abroad
After graduation, there are many ways in which students can teach abroad, whether it be teaching English as a primary, foreign or second language. When evaluating where you want to teach, consider the training and experience required for the country, school or program you are looking at and understand that teaching positions for Americans vary from country to country. Additionally, teaching abroad does have its risks and students should be aware schooling systems abroad can differ significantly from those in the United States.
Before teaching abroad, a few things to consider:
- Being trained to teach English is highly recommended, it makes you significantly more marketable and in better position to be an effective teacher;
- Before you even begin thinking about training it is recommended that you first look at the requirements of the countries and regions you are hoping to teach in because they can vary;
- There is a multitude of different training courses, varying in cost and preparation, and careful research is needed before choosing to invest in a course.
Some questions to ask about training programs include:
- Is there external validation of the course?
- How much opportunity is there for teaching practice?
- What will the size of the class be?
- What qualifications and experience do the tutors/teachers have?
- How long will my certification last?
Types of TEFL Certificates (Teaching English as a Foreign Language)
Cambridge Certificate (CELTA): This certificate has a solid reputation in the international teaching community and high levels of recognition among employers around the world. The certificate is not only offered in the UK, it is also offered in a number of countries around the world. They offer certificates a variety of levels and certificates to teach to a variety of ages.
Trinity Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL): This certificate is regarded as having equal standing as the Cambridge Certificate. It also offers training in a multitude of centers around the world. Trinity stipulates a minimum of 130 hours offered intensively over a minimum of four weeks or part-time over a long period. Also the future teacher must take a learning pre-course and requires observed and assessed teaching hours.
There are other TEFL certificates offered online and through other schools. It is highly recommended that you carefully investigate and research the certificate before you commit yourself to the program. There are also Training and Placement programs that will provide you with certification and a teaching placement. Many of these programs have costs associated with them and careful research should be done before investing your time, money and energy.

Interning Abroad
Many students want to learn first-hand the experience of taking the skills they have developed at Barnard to a more global context through study abroad and/or internships. While interning in organizations or companies in the United States can prepare you to work here, it is important to gain experience and knowledge through cultural immersion if you plan to live or work abroad in an international company or organization. In addition to practical experience, you can travel and get cross-cultural and language training, gain invaluable exposure to international industry, and network overseas and get contacts for further employment.
Tips for Interning Abroad
Before going abroad consider the following:
- What are your goals for your internship? Related to your academic work or a study abroad program? Pre-professional experience? Cross-cultural understanding? Other reasons?
- Do you want to do your internship during the semester or the summer following an academic study abroad program?
- If so, does your study abroad program have internships embedded in their program?
- Discuss your interest with the Dean for Study Abroad to see if she has information on the experiences of students who attended your program previously or if she has names of alumnae who might be helpful to you.
- Look at resources in the Career Development library and online on the Career Development website, including the following:
- Internship Opportunities packet, a list of organizations offering opportunities;
- Internship Evaluation binders;
- Mentor database of Barnard alumnae who might be willing to assist you in locating an internship.
If you are already abroad:
- Don't rush into an internship; you will want to be clear about your time availability before making a commitment to an internship/service opportunity;
- Speak with faculty, staff and students at your host school or program to see if they have useful connections;
- Contact Barnard alumnae; refer to the Alumnae Affairs website to find the name of the local club president or email the Dean for Study Abroad or Career Development staff for assistance in locating graduates who may be helpful to you.
Resources and advice to locate international volunteer and internship opportunities:
- Direct Contact: Research organizations or companies that interest you and inquire about international opportunities.
- Past Students / Alumnae: Career Development and/or the Dean for Study Abroad are two campus resources for locating particular students or alumnae that have experience a particular country.

That Great Gig in the Sky
2 comments:
I think one thing that WoW has going for it is a muted expansion cycle. They've released 3 expansions in 8 years. In that same time frame, everquest pushed out a dozen expansions, a sequel, and 8 expansions to the sequel. LOTrO did four expansions in five years. So the development resources required are much less than other games, and that will work in WoW's favor.ReplyDelete
There will be server mergers. I'd be willing to be we'll begin to see them in MoP. Eventually it'll be a shell of it's former self, maybe two or three million players spread across a dozen realms in each region. But I think the actual death of WoW is still a good 10 years off. It'll linger for a long time, just as everquest has.
True, WoW doesn't push out quite as much content as some other MMOs, but they don't have to. And on the flip side, WoW probably has fewer development resources assigned than other staffs, which means that it is harder for them to turn stuff around on a dime without it impacting the overall schedule.ReplyDelete
With the overall death of WoW, you never quite know. It could be that WoW will be allowed to linger, but it could also happen that Activision will want it killed to push people (and staff) into Titan. Sometimes, corporations do strange things like sell off a product line that is profitable, but not profitable enough.

In 1612 a small statue of Mary was discovered by three fishermen in Cuba's Bay of Nipe. The figure was completely dry and floated toward their boat on a board inscribed with the words, "I am the Virgin of Charity." Archbishop Dionisio García Ibáñez of Santiago, Cuba, president of the Cuban bishops' conference, wants the world to remember that event during the 400th anniversary celebration for Our Lady of Charity and the Basilica Sanctuary of the Virgin of Charity in El Cobre in 2012.
Accompanied by Auxiliary Bishop Octavio Cisneros of Brooklyn, N.Y., and Mario Paredes, chairman of the board of the Catholic Association of Latino Leaders, the archbishop traveled to several major U.S. cities to meet with Cuban-Americans and church leaders. On Feb. 21 they stopped at America House in New York. Promoting the anniversary, the archbishop also sought to raise awareness of the changes taking place in Cuba. Although there is a long history of persecution of the church by the Communist government, the archbishop said conditions for Catholics have improved. "There is a better understanding of religion in Cuba," he said. "But it's not easy; it is a process."
Archbishop García said that the role of the church as a mediator in Cuba is an increasingly significant one and that the church strives to embody the goals set out by the Cuban National Ecclesial Encounter in 1986—to be a prayerful, incarnated missionary church. "We have been an isolated society for a long time, so a slow process is required to lead us to face new realities in society and the world," he said.
Archbishop García hopes the anniversary will inspire a global pilgrimage next year to El Cobre. The sanctuary hosts thousands of pilgrims annually, concentrated around the feast of the Virgin of Charity, Sept. 8. Most of those visitors come from within Cuba. This year, however, with the recently announced loosening of U.S. restrictions on travel to Cuba for religious purposes and the end in 2010 of limits on how often Cuban-Americans may visit family in Cuba, the anniversary could see an increase in the number of U.S. pilgrims.
Archbishop García noted that one slogan for the anniversary year is "Charity unites us," a reference to both the patron and the virtue. He said that most Cubans, Catholic or not, have a statue of Our Lady of Charity in their home. "Our Lady of Charity is not only for Catholics," he said. "She is a symbol in the nation. People see in Our Lady something positive and good. She has entered into our history and culture."

I've heard that it's better to steam vegetables than it is to boil because boiling saps nutrients from them. Is this true? And if so, is grilling veggies on the good side or the bad side? I often like to have hot meals, but I want to get my nutrients, too. Thanks
Steaming tends to preserve nutrients better than boiling because the vegetables are not in direct contact with water. Water-soluble vitamins will be lost in cooking water when vegetables are cooked in large amounts of it. Generally, if vegetables are being boiled, using a small amount of water is best. Grilling vegetables is also fine. Your best bet is to eat a variety, and cooking vegetables in different ways will help maintain interest.

The Germantown Relief Society, a charitable organization established in 1873, is soliciting proposals from nonprofit organizations to become Dispensing Agents for the distribution of funds provided by the Relief Society for the year 2014.
The purpose of the Germantown Relief Society, as specified in its Charter, is "to relieve the…poor of Germantown and vicinity by contributing to their aid money, clothing, provisions, medicine and other necessaries of life."
Dispensing Agents must be non-profit organizations that are registered with a current 501( c )3 status with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and that serve the population of Germantown. Funds must be spent on direct aid to individuals in the form of food, clothing, shelter, medicine or other basic needs.
These funds may not be used for general operating costs of the Dispensing Agent. Average grants in recent years have been in the $1,500 to $5,000 range.
Proposals must be received by Oct. 1, 2013. Selected organizations will be notified by the end of 2013, and the funds can be expected to be received early in 2014.

King Lear played by Joseph Marcell
King Lear (2013)
Written by: William Shakespeare
Joseph Marcell plays the title role in 2013's touring production of King Lear. Joseph was last at the Globe in 2011, playing Leonato in Much Ado About Nothing.
latest updates
"When we're outside we have all the elements, it becomes really real. You get an idea of what it may have been like in Shakespeare's time."
In his final interview, Joseph discusses his favourite moments of the play and the audience's reactions to him as Lear as the tour comes to the Globe.
"There needs to be a precision of verse, a precision of prose, diction, clarity, but most of all: clarity of intention." In a special phone interview from Turkey, Joseph talks about the challenges that can arise when performing Shakespeare abroad.
"It's very hard to see how one apportions love among three people." In this second interview Joseph Marcell discusses the on-going rehearsals, and how his impressions of the character have changed.
"I read somewhere that it is perhaps the greatest honour an actor can be given - when he gets to a certain age - to be given the part of King Lear."
In his first interview, Joseph Marcell speaks humbly about his past experiences of performing Shakespeare and how he now feels being cast in this latest role at the Globe.

The Black AIDS Institute (BAI) and pharmaceutical manufacturer Merck have partnered to create the Washington, D.C. Black Treatment Advocates Network (BTAN), which will address the distinct needs of HIV-infected African Americans in the nation's capital. Using the educational initiatives of the Community Education Group (CEG), BTAN planned to train advocates to share information about health resources for HIV-infected African Americans in the nation's capital. Training for advocates was underway, and advocates would begin work in their communities by the end of the year. Thirteen other high-incidence cities already have HIV services networks.
According to Phill Wilson, BAI president and chief executive officer, HIV-infected African Americans were not using fully the treatment services available under the Affordable Care Act. Equating HIV treatment with prevention, Wilson stated that fewer than 25 percent of HIV-infected African Americans had "appropriate HIV care with viral suppression," which was the key to preventing 96 percent of new HIV cases.
In May 2012, the D.C. Department of Health reported that 4.3 percent of Washington's African-American population had HIV. Although African Americans comprised only 46 percent of D.C.'s population, they accounted for approximately 75 percent of the city's HIV cases.
Chirfi Guindo, Merck's vice president and general manager, described Merck programs that helped offset antiretroviral medication costs. Merck's initiative provided free HIV medications to approximately 1,000 patients, but many other HIV-infected people lacked information about available HIV facilities and treatment resources.
HIV advocate Alvin Jeffrey Hall, who has been HIV positive since the 1980s, reported that many HIV-infected African Americans in Washington, D.C. did not take advantage of HIV services because of fear and lack of knowledge about treatment resources. Now office manager for Metro TeenAIDS, Hall emphasized that education and regular treatment were of prime importance.

Christopher Fox, 37, Laguna Niguel, California, and Curtis Melone AKA Curtis Kubat, 37, Huntington Beach, California, two Southern California men who, under the guise of an attorney-backed loan modification company, collected more than $6 million from homeowners nationwide for services that were never performed, have been arrested and charged with 37 felony counts, including conspiracy, grand theft and unlawful collection of advance fees. They are being held at the Orange County Jail on $500,000 bail and will be arraigned in Orange County Superior Court.
Fox and Melone – along with King Harris III, 42, St. Louis, Missouri – collected more than $6 million in up-front fees through Orange County- based Green Credit Solutions. The Attorney General's office will seek extradition of Harris, who currently faces federal mail and wire fraud charges in Missouri.
In June 2009, the Attorney General's office launched an investigation of Orange County- based Green Credit Solutions – later renamed Guardian Credit Services and Get My Credit Grade – in response to numerous consumer complaints filed with the office, as well as with the Better Business Bureau, the California Department of Real Estate and the State Bar of California.
Through witness interviews, analysis of the company's marketing materials, and its business and financial records, DOJ investigators uncovered a scheme in which thousands of victims paid $3,500 for what they believed were attorney-backed loan modification services to reduce their interest rates, monthly payments or principal balance.
From November 2008 to October 2009, Fox, Melone and Harris collected more than $6 million from thousands of homeowners across California and nationwide. Victims were told their funds would be held in a so-called "attorney escrow account" until services were completed. In fact, those fees were often deposited into the account of a disbarred attorney and then promptly transferred to GCS.
Likewise, the company fraudulently claimed that loan modification services would be performed by attorneys; Harris is a disbarred Tennessee attorney and marketing materials referred to his alleged partners at the defunct law firm of "Smith Harris PLLC."
Attorney General Kamala D. Harris today announced the arrests.
"Homeowners continue to struggle throughout California and across the country to hang onto their homes, and this prosecution is another warning to predators who would seek to profit from their distress: this kind of criminal conduct will meet with swift and certain consequences," Attorney General Harris said. "Homeowners should never pay up-front fees to reduce their loans. Californians who face mortgage difficulties should instead contact a non-profit housing counselor, either through www.HUD.gov or a local non-profit housing clinic, to learn about the mortgage process and their rights as homeowners."
In May 2011, Attorney General Harris formed a Mortgage Fraud Strike Force to investigate and prosecute mortgage fraud. In August, the Strike Force filed its first suit against a law firm that took millions from desperate homeowners: http://oag.ca.gov/news/press_release?id=2552&y=&m=
In California, foreclosure consultants are prohibited by law from collecting money before services are performed. For more tips on how to avoid mortgage fraud and other resources, and to report fraud or file a complaint, visit http://oag.ca.gov/consumers/loan-modification.

This is not an article about sports video games. It should be. Our regularly, scheduled Sportaku section runs in the spot this Easter Bunny animated GIF is going in. But our Sportaku writer is getting on an airplane.

Dems reach out to Toomey on guns
With the Senate set to take up a major gun-control bill as early as next week, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) has quietly reached out to conservative Sen. Pat Toomey for support on expanding background checks on all gun sales.
Manchin-Toomey negotiations, if successful, could provide a breakthrough on a key issue facing the White House and Senate Democrats.
Story Continued Below
They want conservative Republicans and the powerful National Rifle Association to sign on to universal background checks for gun transactions, including private transfers and gun-show sales, but so far have not been able to reach such an agreement with any GOP conservative.
Right now, the Senate bill introduced by Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) contains background checks with record-keeping provisions that are anathema to many conservatives. If Democrats can't reach a deal with a conservative lawmaker like Toomey on the bill, it is unlikely they measure will pass, a potentially serious political setback for President Barack Obama and the gun-control movement.
Thus Democrats have been seeking a Republican partner on the measure. Manchin and Schumer held weeks of negotiations with Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) in an attempt to forge a bipartisan deal on the issue.
But those talks bogged down over Coburn's concerns over the record-keeping provisions in the background checks package. While Schumer and the White House have continued to talk to Coburn in a bid to reach an agreement, Manchin has set out to try to find another GOP co-sponsor.
Manchin has exchanged draft proposals on a background checks bill with Toomey after talks began Wednesday, although the two sides have not reached any agreement yet.

Arkansas, February 11- Average retail gasoline prices in Arkansas have risen 2.4 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $3.37/g
Arkansas, February 11- Average retail gasoline prices in Arkansas have risen 2.4 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $3.37/g yesterday, according to GasBuddy's daily survey of 1,826 gas outlets in Arkansas. This compares with the national average that has increased 5.7 cents per gallon in the last week to $3.55/g, according to gasoline price website GasBuddy.com.
Including the change in gas prices in Arkansas during the past week, prices yesterday were unchanged compared to the same day one year ago and are 24.4 cents per gallon higher than a month ago. The national average has increased 28.2 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 7.2 cents per gallon higher than this day one year ago.
"If anything positive came about as a result of Winter Storm 'Nemo' it may be that the resulting 'demand destruction' seems to have flattened out the rate at which prices had been increasing in the Northeast and the Midwest too," said Senior Petroleum Analyst Gregg Laskoski. "On the west coast motorists are less fortunate. With western refineries producing at 75% capacity (less than any other region), California has seen its average price increase by 14 cents per gallon over the past week; doubling the rate of increase over the same period for the rest of the country."

Hippity-Hoppity! The PANDORA Sterling Sterling Silver Hanging Bunny Charm is perfect to symbolize the nature that surrounds you, or to commemorate a fun-filled Easter! I've never met a rabbit that wasn't completely adorable and this little guy is no acception!
PANDORA Chinese Zodiac Rabbit Dangle
1915, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011, 2023
People born in the Year of the Rabbit are articulate, talented, and ambitious. They are virtuous, reserved, and have excellent taste. Rabbit people are admired, trusted, and are often financially lucky. They are fond of gossip but are tactful and generally kind. Rabbit people seldom lose their temper. They are clever at business and being conscientious, never back out of a contract. They would make good gamblers for they have the uncanny gift of choosing the right thing. However, they seldom gamble, as they are conservative and wise. They are most compatible with those born in the years of the Sheep, Pig, and Dog.

"There is a huge difference in swinging a kettlebell and performing a kettlebell swing," says Brett Jones, a kettlebell master and one my most important mentors on this topic. Brett said it all: There is a huge difference between what you mostly see in gyms (just swinging a kettlebell around) and performing an actual kettlebell swing. If you do these exercises right they are wonderful — safe, effective, convenient and efficient.
Jumping into the swing without laying the right foundation is a lot like doing a crazy crash diet: In the beginning it's fun, but before long you are miserable, and given more time the whole thing backfires on you.
Are you ready for it?
If you want to do this right so you are set for success for life, then the first question to ask is: Do you qualify for this right now? It's important to do the simple screening tests below with ease. And don't kid yourself. It's like checking the oil in your engine — sure, you can pretend like you have oil, but it doesn't change the fact that you are destroying your engine.
Test one: Toe touch. Stand with your feet so close they can't get any closer and do not bend your knees. Can you easily touch your toes and stay in that position with your knees straight?
Test two: Hip mobility. Get a friend to help check this for you. They will hold a broomstick lined up with the top of your kneecap. You lie down flat on your back with your palms up and legs together with your toes pointed toward your nose. Keep both knees straight and slowly raise your right leg and freeze the instant you have to move the left leg at all. Ask your friend if your entire ankle is past the stick. Then do the test with your other leg. Both legs should pass the stick, and they should both be about the same.
Test three: Check for pain. Look at the pictures, get into basically cobra and child's pose positions from yoga. Does it hurt? There are only two answers, "no" or "not no." "It's a little tight" or "not really" are "not no" responses.
If you have a "yes" on test one, a "yes" on test two, and then "no's" on test three, then you are clear to proceed. If not, then fixing the above is beyond the scope of this column. If you have an issue with tests one or two, find an expert in your area who has the level I and II Functional Movement Screen certifications from functionalmovement.com/experts. If you have an issue with test three, then you should get that checked out by a good physical therapist (preferably someone certified in the practice of Selective Functional Movement Assessment).
If you're ready for it ...
The most ridiculous but still popular question in fitness is: "If you could only do one exercise for the rest of your life, what would it be?" For weight loss, booty sculpting, function, maintenance of flexibility, independence as you age, and so many other reasons, the dead lift actually is that No. 1 exercise.
The swing is a high-speed dead lift, so before we talk about going fast, let's make sure we can do a good dead lift slowly.
You'll need at least a 45-pound kettlebell. We want to activate the powerful muscles in your hips, and with a very light weight your body has no reason to actually use those big muscles.
If you're over 5-foot-5, put the kettlebell on a block or step, or something that will securely lift it off the ground a few inches.
Step 1: Get set. Straddle the kettlebell so that the handle is between your heels, and your feet are about shoulder-width apart with your toes out about 20 degrees. Bend at your hips so your butt goes backward, not your knees forward — you should feel at least a little stretch in your hamstring. Grab the handle harder than you think you need to, and squeeze your arms to your sides like you were trying to keep someone from tickling you.
Step 2: Stand up. Stay tight. Stand straight up as tall as you can. At the top of this lift, your thighs, butt and stomach should all be tight, as if you were bracing to take a punch.
Step 3: Put it down. Drive your butt backward with control until the kettlebell is right back where it started. Set up again and repeat.
Do two to three sets of eight reps on these dead lifts for two or three times a week for a few weeks and then you'll own this basic movement (the hip hinge), and you can start to put some speed on it.

Taped to the inside cover of Libby Gruender's notebook is a 2 inch-by-2 inch article clipping with a picture-perfect birthday cake and glowing candles that beg to be blown out. The Sunnyvale mother of two doesn't remember which magazine she clipped it out of, but it goes wherever she goes. For her, it's a symbol of hope–a child's innocent wishes. It reminds her of what started it all.
The article was about a nonprofit group in Trenton, Ga., that bakes free birthday cakes for kids who wouldn't otherwise have one.
"The concept is so obvious and straightforward …I thought, 'That would be great. I'm going to sign up,'" Gruender said. "There weren't any here in the Bay Area. To think, as many people as we have here–three million people–and we didn't have anyone who started something like that."
Tired of working in the fast-paced, money-centric tech industry, Gruender decided it was time to do something with more meaning, something for someone else.
With her former co-worker who happened to be an excellent baker by her side, Gruender founded Cake4Kids, the first organization of its kind in the Bay Area.
Baking bridges
A guitar-shaped cake complete with chocolate pickups, a turntable with fondant knobs and a princess tiara on top of a pillow of cake are just a few of the masterpieces created by the growing roster of Bay Area volunteers.
Since its inception in September 2010, Cake4Kids volunteers have made more than 40 cakes for foster children, at-risk youth and other kids in need.
It took a lot of pounding the pavement, emails and phone calls to build a volunteer base of 70 men and women, but Gruender said it came rather quickly after reaching out to fellow mothers, bakers and local nonprofit groups looking to partner with her organization.
"It was just the two of us at first, but by Dec. 2 we had maybe 20 volunteers and today we have about 70," Gruender said. "It's growing very, very fast and we're tapping the mom network."
With 9- and 12-year-old boys at Cherry Chase Elementary and Sunnyvale Middle schools, Gruender found reaching out to other mothers was a natural fit.
"It's gone up through Menlo Park, Palo Alto, Cupertino–all these other school communities. It's just spreading. A part of it is because a lot of these volunteers are moms and they have their own kids, so it kind of touches a chord with them to help a child. But also there are so many bakers who just love to bake and they need an outlet."

General Description
According to the way in which we approach our destiny, we experience the Wheel of Fortune either as an expression of our powerlessness and helplessness or as an indication of a knowledge of life through which we can grow and mature. On the level of events, the Wheel actually often shows situations over which we have no influence at first. The downswing of the Wheel then means that our plans simply don't work out. The weather, the traffic, an air traffic controller's strike, the malice of an object, or some other "higher power" ruin our plans. The Wheel then shows us that the time has not (yet) come to put our plans into effect. This card in the other positions can be a valuable indication of how we can get to the other, ascending portion of the Wheel. It stands for a happy, pleasant, even surprising turn of events.

TROY, N.Y. – On the final day of the 2014 outdoor regular season, track and field ended the season in dramatic fashion winning gold in two events, while also setting a new program record at the ECAC Championship Meet hosted by RPI Friday afternoon.
Hulerie McGuffie (Lynn, Mass.) and Carl Joseph (Brockton, Mass.) each won gold for the second straight week, while freshman Taylor Smith (Burlington, Mass.) broke her previous record in the discus throw. Joseph, who is looking to become the program's first three time All-American won the high jump with a leap of 6-10.25 feet. For McGuffie she recorded the fastest time in 200 meter dash and fell just .01 seconds short of tying the program record with her time of 24.57 seconds.
Smith continued to shatter the program mark in the discus as the freshman recorded a toss of 135-05 feet to secure a fifth place finish in Friday's championship.
Also in action in the 200 meter dash was Anisha Trappier (Taunton, Mass.) as the sprinter recorded a time of 25.40 seconds to finish in seventh place overall. The men's high jump saw Tylor Hart (Newton, Mass.) record a height of 6-05.00 feet, while on the women's side Renee O'Brien (Stoneham, Mass.) finished with a jump of 5-02.50 feet. O'Brien also competed in the 200 meter dash and finished with a time of 25.46 seconds.
The women's 4x100 meter relay team closed out the 2014 outdoor season with a time of 49.54 seconds.
Overall the women's team finished in 16th place with a combined 19 points, while the men's team finished in 24th place with 10 points.
The Beacons will now wait to see who has officially qualified for the 2014 NCAA Division III Outdoor Championship meet. The NCAA will release the official qualifiers on Sunday at 10 a.m. at www.ncaa.com.

In the last two decades considerable progress in brain imaging techniques have led to increasing interest into the neurobiology of sleep stages and dream contents. However, this fascinating research field poses several methodological challenges. The aim of this article is to discuss these challenges and to suggest novel approaches for probing the neurobiology of dream contents. Most of all, I suggest (i) to overcome the correlative limitations of neuroimaging techniques by applying transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) during different sleep stages in order to provide causal evidence for the role of specific brain regions in different dream contents, (ii) to control for possible perceptual and cognitive biases in dream reports such as hindsight bias, (iii) to combine computer assisted qualitative data analyses of dream reports with quantitative psychometric scales by applying logistic regression analyses and (iv) to consider possible implications for psychotherapy and neuroethics.

MACON, Ga. - The Atlantic Sun Preseason Softball Coaches poll has the Lipscomb Lady Bisons projected to finish fourth in the conference this season.
Senior second baseman Kelsey Cartwright was a preseason First Team All-Conference selection.
Florida Gulf Coast earned all 10 first place votes followed by Kennesaw State in second and USC Upstate in third.
The Lady Bisons finished fourth in the conference last season. They lost Whitney Kiihnl, one of the top pitchers in the history of the conference; outfielder Caroline Mason and what she did offensively in crucial moments; and catcher Mollie Mitchell, one of the best catchers in the A-Sun.
Lady Bisons coach Kristin Ryman, set to begin her eighth season, isn't surprised by the voting.
"So many coaches vote in preseason based on the year before," Ryman said. "A lot of it depends on who graduated and who do you have coming in. We have some holes to feel losing those three, but I do feel like we are doing a really good job of filling those.
"I am not surprised with the pick. I definitely think we are going to be right up there in the top of the mix again."
The Lady Bisons have added six freshmen and two transfers for this season. Ryman thinks that teams might be surprised at the talent level of the newcomers.
"We are young, but we have a lot of competent young players," Ryman said. "They are going to get the opportunity to play quite a bit early on. We will see what they can do. We have a lot of young players who have the opportunity to be successful this year."
On the mound Ashley Anderson returns, but she is joined by a pair of new arms - Heather Parker, a transfer from Wallace State (Hanceville) and Tanner Sanders, a freshman from Lincoln County High School.
"I think it can work to our advantage that two of our three pitchers are new this year to the conference," Ryman said. "As a pitching staff all three are doing a good job right now.
"They are all three definitely going to get their share of innings. They are all three going to be counted on to throw some big innings for us throughout the season. They are all three very capable of that."
Cartwright led the conference with 18 home runs. It was also a Lipscomb school record for a season. She will be counted on to be an offensive force again this season. But Ryman is quick to point out that Cartwright will not have to carry the weight of the team on her shoulders when she is standing at the plate.
"Kelsey just has to keep a good head on her shoulders and not try to do too much," Ryman said. "She has to know that we do have some really good athletes and good hitters around her this year."
Cartwright, a transfer from Auburn, led the Lady Bisons in hitting with a .381 average, slugging percentage with a .762 average and runs batted in with 45. She also had six doubles and two triples.
"Kelsey will be right back in the middle of the order," Ryman said. "She has made such an impact, especially from an offensive standpoint.
"After only one year in the conference everyone knows who she is. She is easily one of the most feared hitters across the conference."

The timing couldn't have been worse: An emergency alert warning of an "incoming ballistic missile" was mistakenly sent out by Hawaiian officials on Saturday.
It actually was part of a drill and wasn't supposed to be sent to cellphones, authorities said.
"NO missile threat to Hawaii," the state's Emergency Management Agency (EMA) tweeted at 1:20 p.m. EDT (8:20 a.m. Hawaii time).
It took 38 minutes to correct the error, which occurred when an employee selected the wrong item from a drop-down menu during what was supposed to be an internal test of Hawaii's emergency alert system.
The bogus alert, telling residents to seek cover from an incoming missile, comes amid increased tension between the United States and North Korea over that country's continued testing of ballistic missiles.

He is my base, inspired by prime1 Guts Base. I changed the base symbol for schierke's protection mandala
NVM. I decided to roll out with the black swordsman. So badass!! Just sad it's going to take a year to receive. Lol
The Tentacle Ship 2017 looks amazing i pre ordered one i wished they have added the extra head and the beast with it
what to do, what to do?? I want this piece so bad but just pre-ordered black swordsman. I guess this piece really doesn't come out for 1.5 years, which is crazy in my opinion, but gives plenty of time to save for it
You guys are crazy! This thing looks awesome. Ordered mine already. Can't wait to see what they unveil next.
Totally agree!! @Knecht: If there is no delay Zodd should be released Oct 2018 - Dec 2018. Guts will be released about Mar 2018 - May 2018. There is much time until then BUT Prime 1 is known to reveal new Statues very fast. There were a Skull Knight, Zodd Apostle form, Griffith and Guts Berserker Armor tease until now and I guess the full reveal of the next one doesn't take too long. Maybe this on Wonder Festival this weekend. I guess at least they will show Zodd or maybe reveal Griffith or Berserker Armor Guts in full too.
Berserker Armor Guts
Headlong Berserker guts looks better in my opinion

Neville D. Frankel returned to his native South Africa for the first time since emigrating to the United States with his parents at age 14. While Frankel said he initially focused on "just fitting in" after settling in Boston, he became increasingly interested over time in learning where he had come from.
During the three-week trip with his wife and two of their three adult children, Frankel said, he felt a sense of loss for the first time since leaving his homeland 38 years prior. The inspiration for his new book, "Bloodlines," came from imagining the life he might have lived in a South Africa free of the apartheid system that had driven his parents abroad.
"The past is the past," Frankel said, "but it can also be a prologue."
Frankel returned three times to South Africa to research the historical thriller. The story, which is told from the perspective of four characters across five decades, explores themes of family, forgiveness, reconciliation, and love.
Frankel, who primarily works as a certified financial planner, is also the author of "The Third Power," a political thriller about the transformation of Rhodesia to Zimbabwe. In 1984, he shared an Emmy Award for his work on a BBC documentary, "The Hillside Strangler: Mind of a Murderer."
Through his most recent work, Frankel hopes to share the lessons he learned from his motherland.
"I discovered while writing the book that we are all deeply interwoven," he said. "There is only a single human bloodline. We are really all one."
"Bloodlines" is available at Newtonville Books, Brookline Booksmith, Harvard Book Store, New England Mobile Book Fair, and Porter Square Books. For more information, visit www.nevillefrankel.com.
ESCAPING DEATH ROW: In 1994, Damien Echols was sentenced to death after he was convicted along with Jason Baldwin
and Jessie Misskelley Jr. in the 1993 murder of three 8-year-old boys in Arkansas. Based on new DNA evidence, the "West Memphis Three," as he and his codefendants were called, were released after serving more than 18 years in prison.
On Tuesday from 7 to 9 p.m., Echols, who now lives in Salem, will answer questions from students from the Justice Brandeis Innocence Project about the relationship between the media and wrongful convictions. The free event will take place in Goldfarb Library on the Brandeis University campus, 415 South St. in Waltham. Echols, who was 18 years old at the time of his conviction, will also sign copies of his memoir, "Life After Death,'' published last year.
Echols will participate on a panel discussion Tuesday alongside his wife, Lorri Davis, who married him while he was on death row; his defense team adviser, Lonnie Soury; and CBS journalist Erin Moriarty, who profiled Echols in segments aired on "48 Hours" and "CBS Sunday Morning." The event will also include clips from last year's 2012 documentary "West of Memphis," which was produced by Peter Jackson and directed by Amy Berg.

CELEBRATING SHIRLEY: While her fans recognize Shirley Lewis of Newton's Waban neighborhood as a gifted blues singer, songwriter, and poet, her
daughter, Marlene Kirby , said she is best known among friends and family for her spiritualism, charity work, devotion to her two daughters and their families, and "just being there for everybody."
Next Sunday from 4 to 8 p.m., those whom Lewis has influenced through music and kindness will gather for a celebration of her life at American Legion Post 440, 295 California St. in Newton.
Kirby, who is a rhythm and blues singer in her own right (her stage name is Angela Warren), said 75-year-old Lewis has battled cervical cancer since 2004. Also known as the Regal Queen of the Blues, Lewis has opened for B.B. King, and performed with Etta James while touring throughout the United States and Canada.
According to Kirby, Lewis is planning to perform with her band at the celebration, which will also feature a number of special guests. Kirby hopes the event will be a chance for fans and family alike to show their love and appreciation for Lewis, and also allow Lewis to give thanks for their support and friendship over the years.
"It will be an emotional night," she said.
The event will have a suggested donation of $20 at the door, with a portion of the proceeds going to the Cancer Center at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.
FREE FAMILY MAGIC SHOW: To honor and pay tribute to the daily sacrifices of military families, Milford resident Michael Shain will host his fifth annual free children's magic show from 1:15 to 2 p.m. next Sunday in the Stacy Middle School auditorium, 66 School St. in Milford.
