DOC to Define Expectations of Next Warden
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) - The secretary of the Department of Corrections says he intends to hold one-on-one meetings with people in and outside the department to define expectations for the next warden of the state's maximum-security prison.
Warden Doug Weber recently announced his intention to leave his position this summer. Weber has been a DOC employee for 32 years. He was appointed to the position of warden in 1996.
DOC Secretary Denny Kaemingk tells The Argus Leader that he will hold a series of meetings to determine what sorts of characteristics a new warden will need moving forward.
He says finding a replacement for Weber will be difficult.

The African Union said Thursday that South Sudan acted illegally when it sent troops across the border into Sudan to capture a strategic oil field and demanded the force's immediate withdrawal. Diplomats are urging the presidents of both countries to show leadership as war seems imminent. The AU Peace and Security Council condemned Sudan as well as South Sudan for hostile actions that appear to signal a resumption of the war that ended seven years ago. Peace and Security Commissioner Ramtane Lamamra warned that the south's military incursion into the northern oil field at Heglig and the north's aerial bombing campaign had raised tensions to a new level. "It cannot be reduced to yet just another incident like the ones we have seen before. Therefore, it is the feeling in the Peace and Security Council that it is the time now for the two leaders -- Presidents Omar al-Bashir and Salva Kiir -- to display the required leadership, so that the two countries would avoid a disastrous war which the two people do not need to fall in again," Lamamra said.

When the teams met earlier this season, the Clippers won at home by 12 points. In the next meeting March 21 in Oklahoma City, the Thunder routed the Clippers by 23 points.
The Clippers are in the playoffs for the first since the 2005-06 season. It's only their sixth time reaching the postseason since the team moved to Los Angeles 1984. The
Clippers have five regular-season games left, and four of them have the potential to be tough ones because of the playoff implications for all the teams. They play at Denver on
Wednesday night, at Phoenix on Thursday night, at home against lottery-bound New Orleans on Sunday night and at Atlanta and New York next week to finish the season.

Ossie's incredible journey
In a new book, Springfield's former mayor looks back on life and the home he left behind
He's lived in Springfield for nearly 70 years – most of it with his wife, Midge, and their 13 children in a rambling white clapboard house at the corner of Whittier and Laurel Ave.
But at age 85, Ossie Langfelder says he still longs to go home.
"Home was Vienna, Austria," he says. "My relatives, my stamp collection, my life was there. But everything changed when I was 12, and I guess you could say I have been homesick my whole life. Hitler invaded Austria and because my father was a Jew, we had to flee. That was the beginning of my incredible journey to my life here in Springfield, and the beginning of what would become my little book."
The 'little book' is Langfelder's life story – a slim, 125-page volume he self-published earlier this year and titled My Incredible Journey. In it he details his serene, privileged childhood in an upper middle class home in one of the world's most cultured cities. And the harrowing events that led his family to flee Vienna, eventually making their way to Springfield in 1940.
The book has already sold more than 1,000 copies. On Aug. 27, Langfelder will be featured with other area authors at a book signing at Springfield's Barnes and Noble.
Wheelchair-bound for the past three years since diabetes and circulatory complications necessitated the removal of his right leg, Langfelder says the book project brought him back to being interested in life after he lost much of his mobility. He credits his daughter, Jamie Cour, a speech pathologist, with suggesting it was high time he wrote his memoir, and then tackling the job of getting his writings into a word processor format. She also helped him select and interface with a publisher.
"Dad's a pretty emotional person," says Cour. "He's very feeling, and it took almost two and a half years to do the book. He did a lot of thinking to get his memories on the page. My job was to help him pull it all together."
The book begins with an elegantly written prologue Langfelder composed when he was barely 15 years old. In it he sets out to "give a little impression of what it means for people to leave all behind, to lose all, and to go out in a strange world."
During the succeeding years, he says, he occasionally wrote about his life, thinking it might someday become an autobiography to enlighten his children, his 30 grandchildren, and his great-grandchild about who he was and what he came from. "But," he says, "without Jamie's constant effort to help me, the book would never have become a reality."
Langfelder was born in 1926 to a Lutheran mother and a Jewish father in predominately Catholic Austria. His father managed a manufacturing company and his mother had been a private secretary in a law firm until the birth of his only sibling, his sister Edith. The Langfelders lived in the same comfortable, four-story apartment building as other relatives, and Ossie says his memories of his youth are vivid because of the extraordinary circumstances of wartime Europe.
"I remember my father's drawn face when he spoke of the Germans or used the word 'Nazi.' Not until April, 1938, did I realize what fear really meant. That was the fateful day on which Hitler's troops marched into Vienna."
Langfelder relates the cruelty he witnessed. Looking out his family's apartment window he saw well-dressed Jewish women, wearing fur coats and jewels, forced to scrub the sidewalks while soldiers and the Jewish-hating public sprayed them with lime and other harsh chemicals.
"Although our mother tried to shield us from seeing these cruel events, it was unavoidable. I never realized that shortly thereafter, the women would all be sent to concentration camps to be annihilated."
In the book, Langfelder relates how he clutched his father's hand and the two walked for hours in a circuitous route to avoid detection, making their way to the Argentine Embassy in hopes of securing visas to leave Vienna. By luck, someone whispered a warning to his father and they fled. Later they found out that everyone in the line had been arrested.
Shortly after Langfelder's father went into hiding at a relative's house, Ossie and his sister were sent to a school for children of Jewish parents. "Little did we realize that most of those children would be sent to concentration camps."
Langfelder credits his mother's German ancestry and her elegant blond, blue-eyed good looks with helping the family obtain visas that eventually got them out of Austria and on to Switzerland and then to London. He still doesn't know how she accomplished it. Once visas were issued, the family had just three days to leave Austria, or be sent to Dachau prison camp. The Langfelders packed very little and said nothing to friends, pretending instead they were merely going on a weekend holiday.
"As I reminisce," says Langfelder, "I stand in awe of my mother for accomplishing the almost impossible."
Entering the U.S. through Canada and then on to New York City, he recalls his family being dazzled by what they saw.
"There was a store near Times Square that had a four-foot-by-four-foot cube of butter in a huge glass case. My eyes must have bulged out because I had only had bread spread with goose fat once a week. We were so used to everything being rationed, we hardly had any opportunity to even see butter."
"On the first day of my dad's job, he walked five miles to the Illinois Soy Products company to sell them a single quart of oil. The owner was so impressed that my father, an immigrant, would do that to make a living. That night, my mother cooked us a full course meal to celebrate his success."
The Langfelders received financial help from members of a local Jewish temple, and eventually they moved into a comfortable apartment near McClernand School. Ossie joined the Boy Scouts and worked hard at learning to speak English.
"I barely weighed a hundred pounds, so fitting in at Lanphier High School was difficult for me. I studied a lot and three teachers were especially helpful to me. Maybe I was what they call teacher's pet. One of them, Mr. McGann, the mechanical drawing teacher, put me in charge of the class when he left the room. It was awful. The Saputo twins were big husky football players – how was I going to keep everyone quiet and in their seats? They ended up hanging me from a hook on the wall. When Mr. McGann came back, he wanted to know who did it but I didn't squeal. The Saputo twins must have admired that I wasn't a squealer because after that, they became my friends."
By 1944, Langfelder was eager to join the Army and fight for the U.S., even though he knew he had at least one cousin who was fighting for Germany. After two years in the Pacific theater of the war, he came back to Springfield. He was 20 years old. Within a week he was working at a downtown men's clothing shop and buying chocolate bars at a nearby movie theater. The pretty teenage girl running the candy counter was Mary Agnes "Midge" Dunham. They were married five years later.
"I was attracted to him because I knew he was good," says Midge as they sit in their living room. "I guess you could say it was that thing they call love."
"That's the first time I ever heard her say that," says Ossie. "I've been waiting 59 years to hear it."
To celebrate the couple's 25th wedding anniversary in 1977, their children gave them a trip to Vienna. Ossie struggles a bit with his emotions when he talks about going back to the apartment building where his family once lived.
"It was the first time I had been back," he says. "It was as if I had only left a few days earlier."
"We went to our old apartment building, and my aunt's nameplate was still on her door. The grocery store where we bought our food was still there, and the grocer who ran it went into the back room yelling 'Die Langfelders sind hier!' Out came the same grocer who served my family 40 years before. We both cried. Then we had a glass of wine."
The book focuses surprisingly little on Langfelder's engineering career, or his two terms as city streets commissioner or as Springfield's mayor from 1987 to 1995. He jokes that if he had two good legs, he'd run again, but he says politics is serious business and he worries about the inability of national leaders to work together for the good of the country.
Not that his 16 years on the Springfield City Council were uneventful. Landfelder's tenure coincided with Springfield's move to an aldermanic form of government.
"I'm very opinionated," he says. "It's hard for me to change my mind. But aldermen who wouldn't talk to me then bring me presents now. I don't have any regrets."
Both Ossie and Midge say his mayoral years had advantages for their family. Home from New York City to take his mother on an Alaskan cruise to mark her 80th birthday, youngest son Jacob, 36, says going to the National Mayor's Conference in New York City when his father was mayor was the turning point of his life.
"Dad took all of us to New York, and I got to see my first Broadway play. I decided that night that I was going to be an entertainer. When I got my first big break I called my dad to tell him I landed a role in a touring company of The Sound of Music. My dad, who was not convinced about my career choice, asked me what role I was singing. I had to tell him the truth – that I was playing a Nazi military officer. Dad took it pretty well."
Earlier this month, Langfelder celebrated his 85th birthday, receiving a phone call from former Congressman Newt Gingrich and taking some of his grandchildren out to lunch. "I looked at all that food in the restaurant and remembered when my sister and I had a single potato each and thought that was a good meal. If we were very good, once a week we got a banana. I'm grateful for the life I've lived and for what we have that so much of the world can only dream of having. So many people would look at our life and say this is heaven."
Is there another book he'd still like to write? Jamie shifts uneasily in her chair, but Ossie seems taken by the idea.
"I'd like to write about Springfield politics, but I'm not going to do that. I might write about raising children. I should tell you the story about when we took all of our kids to a Milwaukee brewery."
"Oh no," Midge cuts in, shooting him a warning look. "Save that for your second book!"
Julie Cellini is a Springfield freelance writer. She can be reached at email@example.com.
Ossie Langfelder's book, My Incredible Journey, retails for $9 at Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com and CreateSpace.com. Langfelder will sign copies at 10 a.m. Aug. 27 at Barnes and Noble Booksellers, 3111 S. Veterans Parkway.

Vote No on 48 Campaign
The year of 2008 saw what was the most historic election in the history of the United States thusfar. Although the presidential election of 2008 overshadowed most of the other issues in our state, one ballot initiative could not go overlooked. Amendment 48, also known as the Personhood Amendment, would have made a fertilzed egg a person under sections 3,6, and 25 of the Colorado State Constitution. The implications of this amendment were appalling and we wanted to fight it. So, we teamed up with Protect Families, Protect Choices to oppose Amendment 48. We set up two info table about two week prior to the election to get the word out, while do so, 9 News spotted us and asked if one of our officers would agree to do a live interview online. Joel Guttormson agreed to do the interview. When asked why our group opposed the measure, Joel was concise and accurate in explaining the pitfalls of the Amendment. Then, the pro-48 person was interviewed. She agreed with what Joel had said regarding the pitfalls of the Amendment but said she was voting for it anyway because it outlawed abortion. On November 4, 2008, Amendment 48 was defeated in stunned fashion with a near 3-1 margin.
Separation of Church & State Rally
In September of 2008, Vice President of Metro State Atheists, Chalmer Wren, was one of numerous guest speakers for a Rally for the Seperation of Church & State on the steps of the Denver capital. organized by Denver Atheists and Freethinkers. Additional speakers included Lucia Guatney, Victor Stenger, Marvin Straus, Brian Graves, Groff Schroeder, Mike Smith, and Richard Berg.
Astrobiologist David Grinspoon
In October, we hosted a lecture by author and curator of astrobiology at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, David Grinspoon. David is author of Lonely Planets: The Natural Philosophy of Alien Life . Although David was scheduled to speak about the Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission, he instead spoke about astrobiology and planetary science in general. David was also kind enough to donate his time for this event. More information about David can be found at is website www.funkyscience.net.
Don't Believe in God? You're not Alone
In November of 2008, the Colorado Coalition of Reason (COCORE), put up 11 billboards with the phrase, "Don't Believe in God? You're not alone". This resulted in a what we considered a media frenzy given the lack of media attention we get as a movement. Joel Guttormson stepped up as the unofficial spokesman for COCORE in this matter and was interviewed by Channel 7 News on November 13th prior to them actually going up and then again on November 17th once they were up. Then, Joel was interviewed by Bill Johnson of the now disbanded Rocky Mountain News. We received some hate mail, mostly from Christians but we all got encouraging emails from Christians, Joel was phoned by a sympathetic theistic Jew and we also received a blog comment and phone call from someone on the east coast. Joel also wrote an article about this and other events in the CFI Campus Inquirer in January. All-in-all, the campaign was a success, and we'd like to thank COCORE for their activism and support.
Author Victor J. Stenger
In October 2008, we hosted a lecture and book signing by the New York Times best selling author and retired physicist, Victor J. Stenger. Victor was kind enough to donate his time for this particular event. Victor spoke about the content of his 2007 book, God: The Failed Hypothesis. How Science Shows That God Does Not Exist. Afterward, Victor stuck around to sign copies of his book that we were selling to raise funds. An article about the event was written for the The Metropolitan by Nicole Queen but never published. Nicole sent us a copy, though, and it can read here.
Sam Singleton Atheist Evangelist
In what I can only described as a theatrical comedy performance, we arranged to host "Sam Singleton Atheist Evangelist: Patriarchs and Penises." More information about Brother Sam can be found at www.samsingleton.com.
Bob Enyart's Radio Show
In January of 2009, Joel was interviewed by Christian radio talk show host Bob Enyart. You can listen to the interview here. After listening, you can read Joel's and Chalmer's commentary about the show.
CFI's 12th World Congress (Bethesda, MD April 9th-12th)
In April 2009, Joel, Chalmer, and Faculty Adviser of Metro State Atheists, Norman Schultz, attended the Center For Inquiry's 12th World Congress in Bethesda, Maryland. Among the numerous guest speakers were ncluded magician and skeptical investigator James Randi, evolutionary biologist Michael Ruse, NASA climatologist Drew Shindell, philopher and author Barbara Forest and professor of psychology Richard Wiseman . Additional information about this event can be found at www.centerforinquiry.net/worldcongress. This endeavor was funded the MSCD's student travel program. We would like to thank MSCD, specifically Angela LeValley for making the trip possible.
Colorado Skepticamp 2009
In may of 2009, we hosted and provided catering for Skepticamp, a skeptics barcamp style conference. This event included more than a dozen speakers, including presentations by Metro State Atheists' President, Joel Guttormson, and Vice President, Chalmer Wren, on a plethora of topics including global warming, homeopathy, and Saturn. More information about Skepticamp can be found here.
The National
A Denver-based reporter for The National, a United Arab Emirates (UAE) English newspaper, contacted Metro State Atheists via email requesting an interview and photo of Joel and Chalmer. They were told the article would be similar to the one done by the New York Times some time earlier. She interviewed both Joel and Chalmer and both of them were quoted in the article along with others in our movement.
Late in the fall semester, Metro State Atheists received a grant from the Secular Student Alliance (SSA) to purchase merchandise to sell for fund raising purposes. This merchandise was provided to us by fellow COCORE member Evolvefish.com. We are happy to say that so far, the effort has been a success and we have sold a good portion of the merchandise and are poised to re-order some of our more popular selections.

Happy Holidays From The Cult!
On behalf of ChuckPalahniuk.net, we want to wish you all a Happy Holidays! We hope that you're with family and friends this season, and that you get to relax and enjoy yourself. I've got a sister who's moving to San Francisco, so most my time spent in New York this week has been helping her pack and load moving trucks. But I'm finally relaxing on the couch now, with my laptop, staring at a lit up Christmas tree and watching Modern Marvels on the History Channel.
Let me take a moment to let you all in on some buzz in 2009 to get you all excited and curious. We have some exciting news. News so big, that Chuck is actually going to be revealing them on the site himself, on New Year's Day. So definitely make sure you're all logged into The Cult on January 1st. I can also tell you that big improvements are coming to the site. Probably not till around February. But these are changes we think you will all like and appreciate.
So until then, stay tuned. Just don't speculate too much. We want this to be a surprise, after all. ;)

Exploring The Reggae Field Nominees
(For a complete list of 54th GRAMMY Awards nominees, click here.)
You've seen the list of nominees, now take a closer look at the artists nominated in the Reggae Field for the 54th Annual GRAMMY Awards.
This year's Reggae Field nominees comprise an eclectic group of veteran artists, and once again the Marley name comes to the fore. Two of Bob Marley's prolific progeny (and multi-GRAMMY winners themselves), Ziggy and Stephen Marley, are nominated once again. Reggae/poppop singer Shaggy, who won in this category in 1995, also celebrates a return to form. Longtime jazz pianist Monty Alexander, surely the elder statesman of the group, receives his first GRAMMY nomination, as does legendary harmony trio Israel Vibration.
Best Reggae Album
Jamaican piano legend Monty Alexander is represented via his jazz-inflected collection of reggae offerings, Harlem-Kingston Express Live!, which includes interpretations of Bob Marley standards such as "No Woman No Cry" and "The Heathen." Alexander's remarkable career spans nearly 50 years, including stints with the likes of Frank Sinatra, Ray Brown, Natalie Cole, and Wynton Marsalis. Hailing from the classic era of '70s roots-reggae harmony trios, Israel Vibration return with their first album in four years, Reggae Knights. Cecil "Skeleton" Spence, Albert "Apple Gabriel" Craig and Lascelle "Wiss" Bulgin overcame adversity — all three were afflicted with polio when they first met — to become one of the finest roots groups in Jamaica's history. The second eldest of Bob's musical clan, seven-time GRAMMY winner Stephen Marley returns with Revelation Pt. 1: The Root Of Life, a truly artistic revelation that displays a musical depth and spiritual maturity of which his father would surely be proud. Stephen has won Best Reggae Album four times in the last decade, most recently in 2009 for Mind Control — Acoustic. Five-time GRAMMY winner Ziggy Marley, Bob's eldest son, continues to echo his father's message on Wild And Free, his latest solo album produced by Don Was, and perhaps his most political yet. Ziggy won his most recent GRAMMY with Was in 2009 for Best Musical Album For Children for Family Time. Chart-topping artist Shaggy won Best Reggae Album for Boombastic in 1995, and most recently was nominated in 2008 for Intoxication. He is back with the catchy confection Summer In Kingston, which combines his signature vocal style with seductive dance-hall pop and reggae rhythm.
Who will take home the award in the Reggae Field? Tune in to the 54th Annual GRAMMY Awards on Feb. 12, taking place at Staples Center in Los Angeles and airing live on CBS from 8–11:30 p.m. (ET/PT).

Clash into me, baby
Back in January, we heard that the fantastic puzzle/strategy/role-playing game Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes would be coming to mobile platforms, with the iOS versions showing up immediately after the announcement and the Android versions releasing "some time later."
Well, it's time to strap on your elven boots, round up your colorful minions, and get ready to stack them so hard that turn into stone walls, because "some time later" is today. Unfortunately, the Android version is missing online multiplayer, despite the feature being present in the iOS release. Still, one of my favorite games ever is now out on my mobile platform of choice; that is reason enough for at least a little bit of celebration.
Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes can be purchased for Android devices on Google Play.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A political fight over charity collection boxes is brewing in California, where property owners complain that the boxes are sometimes dropped onto their land without permission, becoming magnets for graffiti and shelter for transients.
Goodwill Industries International, the most established of such U.S. charities, has pushed for years for regulation of donation boxes, and a California state senator has taken up the cause with a bill that would make it easier for property owners to have unauthorized boxes towed away.
State and local governments elsewhere in the United States, including Florida, Massachusetts, Michigan, Arizona and North Carolina, have also stepped in to try to regulate the boxes.
Americans plop tens of millions of dollars worth of used clothing into the boxes each year, creating big revenue streams for charities and for-profit companies alike. The regulatory battle over the boxes, now in its fifth year in California, exposes the high stakes in the competitive world of charity fund-raising.
Goodwill executives worry that messy, untended boxes, sometimes owned by companies that are not affiliated with charities at all, give legitimate clothing collectors a bad name. They complain that the big plastic boxes are often blue in color, evoking Goodwill's azure logo.
But opponents of regulation, which include smaller non-profits DARE America and Planet Aid as well as for-profits, say the big reseller is just trying to squash the competition.
This week, frustration on both sides boiled over as media coverage intensified. Accused by opponents of bowing to Goodwill's expensive lobbyists, State Senator Cathleen Galgiani, a Democrat, pulled her bill from consideration moments before it was to be heard in committee on Wednesday. She plans to bring it up again in a few weeks after more preparation.
"There's big money involved," said Ken Berger, president of the watchdog group Charity Navigator. "The players can get very passionate about these large sums of money."
Goodwill brought in $53 million in revenue in 2011, according to financial reports, and paid its president $725,000 in salary and benefits. Planet Aid posted revenue of $37 million that year, while DARE America had $3.7 million.
Some charities lend their names to for-profits in return for a small percentage of the money raised - a practice that has been criticized.
But John Lindsay, a vice president of DARE America, said his organization would not be able to survive without the agreements it has with for-profits in California, Texas and Maryland.
West Chicago-based USAgain operates 10,000 for-profit collection boxes in 17 states, many of them bearing the names of charities.
"We think that being profitable is a great way to make sure an activity is sustainable and can thrive in the long term," the company, which does not disclose revenues, says on its website.
The lure of money has brought in questionable players as well.
At least 10 property owners around Stockton, California, have complained to Goodwill that rogue operators have dropped boxes on their land in the middle of the night, said David Miller, president of Goodwill in the state's San Joaquin Valley.
The idea, he said, is to trick consumers into thinking that the box is owned by a legitimate non-profit.
"'There is a blue box on our property, and we were wondering if it was yours,'" a caller to Goodwill told Miller. It took months to reach the owner and get the box towed away, he said.
California State Sen. Galgiani's measure would grant immunity from lawsuits to property owners who have unauthorized boxes towed away. A similar effort was vetoed last year by Democratic Governor Jerry Brown.
Democratic State Senator Lois Wolk, who chairs the Governance and Finance committee, which was scheduled to hear Galgiani's bill on Wednesday, was concerned that she had not shown that local governments had trouble regulating the boxes, said Craig Reynolds, Wolk's chief of staff.
Galgiani plans to go into the next round of hearings better armed, bringing property owners who have had trouble getting rid of the boxes, and city officials who have tried to regulate them.
Galgiani spokesman Thomas Lawson said opponents of regulation are mischaracterizing the battle as one for dominance by Goodwill.
"It's always a sexier story to say if this bill passes, more people are going to be on drugs," he said. "But we're just trying to give property owners the ability to remove a box if they choose to."

Internships: Student Information
Cooperative Education (Co–op) is a "work for credit" program offered to students enrolled in college transfer or workforce education programs. Academic credit is earned for the learning that occurs on the job. Students may earn credit for their jobs (with permission), or paid / unpaid internships.
A separate component of our program enables students to earn credit for their volunteer service in non-profit, community–based organizations. Co–op is a coordinated effort between the student, the employing organization, and the college.
Advantages of Co–op include the opportunity to acquire career–related experience, explore or clarify career choices, improve existing skills or learn new skills applicable to future employment, and earn college credit.
Students may earn 2–5 credits per quarter (based on the number of hours worked per week) and participation begins after students attend a mandatory orientation session. Students may enroll at anytime during the quarter but must participate for 8–11 weeks before credit is granted. Co–op credits are considered restricted electives. Students are encouraged to contact the schools they are planning to attend to inquire about the transferability of co–op credit.
International Cooperative Education
Through Seattle Central's Co–op program, students can earn college credit for international work experiences, internships, or volunteer activity, as well as other travel / study and foreign language enhancement activities.

Studio Art 122: Introduction to Sculpture
Class Description: The ability to build structures that reflect or alter the environment is a basic defining characteristic of our species. In this class we explore creative construction in three dimensions using a variety of media, including plaster, wood, and steel. Using both natural and architectural objects for inspiration, we will examine and manipulate form, space, and expressive content to develop a deeper understanding of this core trait and reawaken our experience of the spaces we inhabit.
This is an introductory sculpture class, with no prerequisites – open to all enrolled at Carleton. The course serves as the prerequisite for all further study in sculpture or woodworking and as one of the two possible prerequisites for ceramics or metals classes (the other being an intro drawing class). In the class my main goal is to help students engage the basic issues of construction and design in three dimensions with confidence. I spend a great deal of time focusing on translating visual information into language – helping students to describe what they see more clearly and with more precision. This work is paired with technical challenges so students can experience the parallel process, converting their ideas into physical objects. All the students start with an assignment in plaster – a material few are familiar with, which helps to equalize the playing field as far a shop skills are concerned. This is the assignment we see being critiqued in the video. The assignment is based on our first few classes, where we talk about objects the students bring to class.
5 object assignment
Choose five objects that resonate for you structurally and visually. Half man made half natural. These objects must intrigue you in some profound way. WARNING: you will be working with them for a while. This intrigue should be describable to the class - i.e. try to stay away from objects that are intriguing in a way that is unapparent to a non biased observer.
Bring these objects to the next class.
Things to think about: Open and Closed Forms, Positive and Negative Space, Quality of Line, Proportion of Object and Proportion of Major Shapes Within Object, Speed of Forms, Texture, Hard? Soft? Forgiving? Angular? Heavy? Massive? Hollow?. . . . . . .
Look inside the object: What is the structure? Where is the motion? How does this thing exist in space and why is that interesting? CONCENTRATE on what it is that is intriguing to you about these objects visually or metaphorically. What is the essence of the intrigue of this object? Why is that? How does it work?
DUE Tuesday : 3 plaster maquetes. You should be choosing only one object from your five, and looking for a separate aspect of intrigue for each 3D-sketch/maquette/model. So, 3 small plaster thingies based on three separate aspects of intrigue that you found in ONE of your 5 objects
Due The Tuesday after the Tuesday after that:Choose one of your plaster sketches that is particularly challenging or engaging. Develop the essence of that sketch in a larger plaster object or group of objects. Though you may refer back to the original object it is more important that you concentrate on the possibilities presented by the plaster sketch and the thoughts that it provokes.
The rest of the class develops directly from this process of deep and concentrated looking and physical experimentation. From here the students will be introduced to the fundamentals of woodworking and steel construction, with 2 more major projects in the remaining 6/7 weeks. Depending on how I read the trajectory of the class, (group dynamics, basic skills, general alertness) I vary the next assignments to fit how I think the group will work best. Most often however, the assignment after this one is the Gerund assignment.
ger×und (jèr¹end) noun
Abbr. ger.
1. In Latin, a noun derived from a verb and having all case forms except the nominative.
2. In other languages, a verbal noun analogous to the Latin gerund, such as the English form ending in -ing when used as a noun, as in singing in We admired the choir's singing.
[Late Latin gerundium, from Latin gerundum, variant of gerendum, gerundive of gerere, to carry on.]
— ge×run¹di×al (je-rùn¹dê-el) adjective
Most objects have a particular sense, peculiar to their construction. A building can be inviting, frightening, a table can be uplifting, supporting, reassuring ... continue looking at how things are put together, what are the key compositional elements that make them what they are? What makes a composition work? How is it when a structure speaks successfully? What is it for an object to emote clearly?
using these ideas
and at least two materials
paying specific attention to the combination of those materials and what that can do
Make A Gerund
The final project often focuses on reading and analyzing architectural forms, and allows for the most individual freedom in material choice and scale. There is also a midterm presentation (short 10 minute powerpoint slide show) where each student presents the work of a contemporary artist they admire.
Stephen Mohring's Reflections
The process of making this class video was very enlightening for me. The first question that vexed me was how the heck do we film this damn thing, given the highly mobile nature of my teaching. This led me to think very deeply in a way I have not before about my use of the classroom, and to re-evaluate my 'choreography' in the space while I teach. I am still chewing on the videos, trying to read the students to see if what I think is exciting or odd even registers on their faces. I can't imagine a better way to get a real handle on how your actions are seen by the class, but boy, the first few screenings were quite difficult to watch.The other great thing about this process was getting to focus on other professors' styles without intruding into their classrooms. The Heisenberg principal (or at least the social science reinterpretation of it) really plays out in most classroom visits – viewing a class inevitably alters the class in some way... But here (especially after the students have gotten used to the cameras sitting there unattended) the effect seems diminished and a fairly pure version of what happens in the classroom comes through. It has been reassuring to see the same problems emerge in completely different subjects, and ever since I have been pondering just how much the mastery of our core disciplines matter – and how perhaps our real challenge in the liberal arts lies in an ongoing exploration of the act of teaching.

Last week, Times Community News got a surprise visit from a poet. No, Rita Dove or Mark Strand didn't stop by the newsroom. But our story on DrunkRescue, a new Huntington Beach business that offers rides home for out-on-the-town drunks, got an online reader comment much different from the usual anonymous posting.
It was different, mainly, because it was written in rhymed couplets. I emailed the author and asked for his or her name so we could print the comment in Mailbag (it's in our letters page this week), and a return message revealed that Michael P. Ridley — a.k.a. The Alaskan Poet — had sent it anonymously.
Then again, for those familiar with Ridley's work, the poem's author may have been easy to guess. Ridley, a lawyer who lives in Costa Mesa, has a history of posting poetic reader comments and once wrote a column (in verse) for the Orange County Register. He also runs a pair of poetry blogs: one, http://www.alaskanpoet.blogspot.com, dealing with personal issues, and the other, http://www.alaskanpoetcommentator.blogspot.com, weighing in on news of the day.
All his poems are written in the same freewheeling style, with rhymed couplets, wildly irregular meter and lines sometimes so long that they require a second intake of breath to read aloud. If you've read works by the 20th-century satirist Ogden Nash, you may get the idea.
I arranged an interview with Ridley and expected him to tell me he was a Nash fanatic. Instead, he cited his main influences as Dr. Seuss and the Yukon poet Robert Service, whose work he devoured growing up in an Alaskan fishing town. He admitted without hesitation that he isn't a poetry scholar and that his attempts to write free verse have come to naught.
But Ridley has one skill that likely eludes the average Poet Laureate: He can finish poems quickly. When he read the DrunkRescue story, he said, he didn't have to worry about early drafts or revisions.
"I read that and, literally, within two minutes I had done the poem," Ridley told me.
With the Register, Ridley rhymed about Fourth of July drinkers ("In most of the country this is a day of parades, Sousa, reflections, fireworks and family barbecues./Sad, in this Golden Land of beach and sun, it is a day of too much wine, too much brew") and Orange County's summer tradition ("It is harder in this county to find a working farm than an honest man with a lamp,/Yet the Orange County Fair is marked with droves of cars coming off the Fair Drive ramp"), and his commentary blog features musings on birth control and Whitney Houston, among other things.
They all seemed effortless enough. Still, I needed firsthand evidence that Ridley could write a poem that fast, so I emailed him a recent Independent story — about the plan to expand the 405 Freeway — and challenged him to versify it. Less than 40 minutes later, he responded:
No one can predict the future other than the certainty of one's final heart beat
In a world of telecommuting and video cams do we need to expand our streets?
Orange County continues to grow and traffic may get worse
Problem is we have an almost empty purse
Several ideas on the table need over a billion each to improve the 405
Anyone asking if on a keyboard we reduce the need to drive?
Or with oil prices going to new heights
Will we have the dollars for the commuting wars to fight?
A wider road may be a perceived need
Asphalt covers over the grass and weeds
But if we build more freeways to ease it for the cars and trucks
Especially if we do not have the money or do not have the bucks
Are we doomed to a treadmill and soon out of luck
Telecommuting too easy to disregard and shuck?
Then again, perhaps I should have sent him our story from last week about the watchdog report on members of Congress. Even I can't think of anything that rhymes with "Rohrabacher."

***Correction: The online version of this story originally identified Dave Sheanin incorrectly as the team's new head coach. Sheanin, an assistant coach, has been serving as interim head coach.
In 2008, when Mike Ricci took over as head coach of the University of Colorado triathlon team, the Buffs had not won a national championship in five years.
"The first night I met the team, I stood before them and I said, 'If you guys wanna be a fun team and you just wanna have fun then that's cool,'" Ricci said. "'If you wanna win, that's cool, too. Whatever you guys want.' And nobody really said anything. And this one little kid way in the back of the room said, 'we wanna win the national championship.' From there I set a plan to get to where we wanted to go as a team."
The team went on to win four national championships under Ricci's guidance. Though he stepped down from coaching the team in 2013 — a year in which the team won another championship — Ricci won his own award: USA Triathlon coach of the year.
Kathleen Johnston, a youth and juniors coach, was also honored as a coach of the year.
Ricci said that winning the award was a welcome surprise.
"When you coach at that level, you always wanna be the best of your peers, and when it happens, it's like wow, it's really great but at the same time you're kind of surprised."
"He's well deserving of that award," said Jesse Frank, current president of the CU triathlon team. "We as a team were happy to see him win it. Congrats to coach."
Ricci said the key to the teams success was accountability, discipline and team spirit.
"There was a lot of talent on the team," Ricci said. "I think they just needed some direction. And probably to do some things they didn't wanna do. They just needed someone to tell them to do it."
Former team president Corey Hazekamp joined the team just before Ricci took over and was there to witness the transformation.
"Mike came and instantly implemented more definite guidelines for everyone on the team," Hazekamp said. "I think it was really the team-building Mike implemented. Before people would just go off and do their own workouts, or text their friends on the team and say, 'let's go for a ride.' Mike really laid down the law and said, 'no, you guys need to be working out together.' You had faster kids working out with slower kids, which helped push everyone."
Ricci asked everyone to go to at least four practices a week, which adds up to eight to 10 hours of training per week for most athletes. He also got the team training year round. "What I tried to get across to the team was, enjoy the process," Ricci said.
That year, the team won nationals.
"I think it probably happened a year earlier than I thought it was gonna happen," Ricci said. "I thought it would take a couple years to get there. But there was enough talent, and the kids were willing to work hard enough to make it happen. Once it happened, it was kinda like, wow, well what do we do know? It's like you've arrived.
"And the next year we won again. And you know with that comes the pressure to win every year. In some ways, you wish you were still climbing that ladder."
Ricci got into coaching in his 20s while working as a lifeguard. Someone asked him to take a class and start coaching swimming at the pool. "It was just really life changing in a lot of ways," he said. "You get to help people. I taught people to swim who couldn't swim."
In 2001 Ricci quit his job to start his own coaching business, D3 multisport. He coaches athletes locally in Boulder, and remotely over the web.
Although he has come a long way from just coaching beginning swimmers, he still taught people the basics of swimming at CU. He remembers when Caryn Maconi showed up as a freshman and could barely swim the length of the pool at her first practice.
"I begged her to come back," he said. "You don't really know what you've got until you invest in people. Once you make that commitment to them, they say 'wow, this person cares about me, I'm going to make sure I do my best for them,' and that's where you create that relationship."
Maconi eventually placing 4th on the team at nationals.
Ricci recently stepped down as head coach to focus on raising his kids and running his business. He is running an Ironman training camp in Boulder this summer. He said he would consider coaching another triathlon team again "if the right opportunity came along, I'd have to seriously think about it."
Ricci said that throughout his years of coaching, it's the lifelong relationships that stand out the most.
"The wins and losses, great. But it's really the relationship and seeing people achieve things they didn't think were possible."

Why Creators Should Never Read Their Forums
on Thursday January 06, @02:52AM
Posted by
on Thursday January 06, @02:52AM
from the lalala-i-can't-hear-you dept.
spidweb writes
"One full-time Indie developer writes about why he never goes to online forums discussing his work and why he advises other creators to do the same. It's possible to learn valuable things, but
the time and the stress just don't justify the effort
. From the article, 'Forums contain a cacophony of people telling you to do diametrically opposite things, very loudly, often for bad reasons. There will be plenty of good ideas, but picking them out from the bad ones is unreliable and a lot of work. If you try to make too many people happy at once, you will drive yourself mad. You have to be very, very careful who you let into your head.'"

Lara Croft is beginning to look like a real person, at least from the neck up. The newest issue of Game Informer will reveal Square Enix's reboot of the Tomb Raider franchise. The new game's name: Tomb Raider…yep, that's it. The game is being developed by Crystal Dynamics, the studio that made the last four Tomb Raider games. Granted, they were some of the better, if ignored, games in the series.
This reboot will be the ninth title in the main Tomb Raider series and 18th Tomb Raider branded game since the series began in 1996. In the past, the series has been criticized for low production values and failing to evolve with the times.
"Forget everything you knew about Tomb Raider, we are exploring things that have never been done before in this game," said Darrell Gallagher, Head of Studio, Crystal Dynamics. "This is an origins story that creates Lara Croft and takes her on a character defining journey like no other."
The new look will make its debut in a full 10-page story in Game Informer, which should hit shelves Dec. 11. Hopefully, Square Enix will put the proper time and attention into the new game. The Japanese publisher appears to have already given the busty heroine a more eastern look. We'll see what the rest of the game looks like in a few days.
The new name (Tomb Raider) is almost as original as Turok: Dinosaur Hunter's reboot: Turok. Hopefully this treasure hunter's origin story will be better received than the dinosaur hunter's. Strangely both game series were started by studios that no longer exist. Acclaim Studios, which made the original Turok, went bankrupt after spending too much money on bad licenses and Army Men games. Eidos, which built itself on the success of Tomb Raider, was purchased by Square Enix in March 2009, after a period of financial uncertainty.
Will you give a Tomb Raider game a chance or has the series already raided your patience for too long?

Justin Bieber Gets Blessed by the Toronto Maple Leafs [VIDEOS]
Justin Bieber may have angered some hockey fans when he posed with the Stanley Cup and stepped on the Chicago Blackhawks logo, but at least one pro team still loves the Canadian phenom: the Toronto Maple Leafs!
Bieber posted an Instagram video of a visit to the team, who "blessed" him with an amazing piece of memorabilia.
"So I just got blessed with this right here," Bieber said, pointing to a hockey stick in a frame, covered in autographs. "Every player from the Toronto Maple Leafs signed this stick -- and they presented it to me! Justin Bieber!"
Isn't it cute how humble he is about this?
The Biebs also posted a few Maple Leafs-themed videos with his pals Maejor Ali and Lil Za. The boy sure has team spirit!
