Paul Robeson: I Go on Singing - Anthony Brown
When Saturday February 9, 2013 @ 7:00 PM (1629 days ago)
Where Lehman Auditorium
Duration 1 hour 30 minutes
Once in a lifetime a human being comes along who stands head and shoulders above the rest. Paul Robeson was such a man. An all-American athlete, scholar, international recording artist and star of the stage and screen, in his day, Robeson was the best-known African American entertainer in the world… and his life was a courageous example of integrity and discipline in the service of peace.
The story of this American hero who struggled and triumphed comes alive in this rousing 90-minute song-filled multi-media presentation, "I Go On Singing," Paul Robeson's life in his words and songs, performed by the gifted American baritone and international ambassador of peace, Anthony Brown accompanied by Ken Rodgers, professor of piano and organ at Hesston College, and narrated by our own David Evans, asst. professor of history and mission at Eastern Mennonite Seminary.
Anthony Brown, internationally acclaimed baritone and Hesston College sociology faculty and artist-in-residence, is an international promoter of peace and a citizen of the world.

CLAREMONT - Claremont would need to float a bond - costing perhaps $80 million - to buy Golden State Water Company's system in the city, and although residents would not see lower rates immediately, they may eventually once initial costs are paid down, said Councilman Sam Pedroza.
"We understand there is a cost of providing water. We just don't agree with the rate of those increases," Pedroza said.
Golden State Water Co. is in a pitched battle with customers in Claremont, Barstow and Apple Valley and other Southern California communities over large rate hikes after the company's parent, San Dimas-based American States Water Co., posted a net income of $15.1 million for the third quarter ending June 30.
The privately owned water company attributed $300,000 in recent profits to new rate increases.
Claremont continues considering buying out Golden State and running its own utility, according to Brian Bowcock, a member of the Three Valleys Municipal Water District board. The price could be as high as $80 million, Pedroza said.
An appraisal of Golden State Water within Claremont will be available for the City Council in October, said City Manager Tony Ramos.
On Thursday, the city sent out a news release about Gov. Jerry Brown's having signed legislation imposing stricter auditing requirements and notification standards on water companies.
The city supported Senate Bill 1364, which was drafted by Senate Republican Leader Bob Huff, R-Walnut, because officials believe it will help them fight the water company's rate increases.
The bill, according to the release, seeks to ensure that ratepayers who are served by private water companies are not asked to pay more for the same service than a ratepayer served by a public agency without a clear understanding of the associated costs.
Golden State has defended its rate increases, saying they have been approved by the state Public Utilities Commission.
Some of the money raised goes toward capital improvements. "Golden State Water Co.'s rates reflect only the cost to provide the service and maintain the water system," company spokesman Mitch Zak said.
Bowcock is in favor of the city's plan to take over the water company.
He says Claremont water rates are 84 percent higher than La Verne's. He said the only reason for that is the dividends Golden State must pay to shareholders.
"If I were starting a new city today, I would go with a public entity rather than a private water company because of the profit margins they are looking for," Bowcock said.
Most water agencies depend on customer sales for 80 percent of their revenues, said Sanjay Gaur, senior manager of Raftelis, a Pasadena-based financial consulting firm hired by public-private water agencies.
And retail water agencies can't raise property taxes so they raise water rates or add stand-by charges to meet expenditures.
The bigger problem is aging infrastructure. Experts at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency say cities older than 50 years, like most in eastern Los Angeles County, are entering the era of replacement as water systems deteriorate, Gaur said. The cost for new pipes, pumps and reservoirs will hit ratepayers' wallets hard.
Gaur said public utilities do a better job of keeping rates lower, because they are local and accountable to residents. But often, public utilities practice deferred maintenance, only to experience major repairs 30 years later.
"Yes, public agencies keep costs lower than private but is that right? The public is mining the system. Then in 10 years you have a huge liability," Gaur said.
Reggie Lamson is general manager of the Big Bear Lake Department of Water and Power, which provides water service to nearly 16,000 customers in and around the Bear Bear Valley.
He said that water system was purchased through condemnation proceedings and a bond issue in 1989 from Southern California Water Co. - as Golden State Water Co. was then known.
The debt service for the bond has been refinanced and won't be paid off until 2022, Lamson said.
"We've got 10 years to go on the main bond we borrowed," Lamson said. "Our annual expenses are about $10 million. But the debt service is $4 million of the $10 million. Forty percent of operating expenses is paying off the debt service. That's the downside. But once it's paid off it will be great."
Lamson said the department has been fortunate to get low-interest loans and grants to upgrade the system and this summer they've added five miles of pipe and three new well pumping plants for almost $9 million.
The department has been able to acquire $2 million worth of grants and low-interest loans to help pay for the improvements, Lamson said.
"That's how we're making improvements," Lamson said.
Lamson said the department has received few complaints and customer bills are about $45 a month.
The agency previously running the system was Southern California Water Co., Lamson said.
"The system had become run down," Lamson said. "There were a number of outages and lots of leaks because they weren't investing the appropriate funds in the system to keep it from leaking. So the community went to the city and said, `Can you take this over?"'
The city eventually voted to do so, Lamson said, which led to an expensive condemnation process.
"They got their engineer to come up with a value. Then the city of Big Bear Lake hired an engineer. One said it's worth this and the other side said it's worth this much. Then we went to court. It's usually a two- to three-year process to go through the court system."
The bond used to take over the agency was about $35 million, of which about $28 million went to pay to SCWC and another $5 million was for immediate system improvements, Lamson said.
"It's not a thing for the lighthearted," Lamson said. "Not only to purchase the system but the attorney fees and the time it takes and the energy ... it's a very expensive, high-energy venture," Lamson said.
Lamson said that private water companies are usually awarded two to three times their value and SCWC was awarded $28 million.
"It's the value of the water system," Lamson said. "It accumulates assets over years and years and years.
"With Claremont, I'm not sure how old their system is. You figure anywhere from half a million (dollars) to a million per mile of pipeline in the ground. You can do the math. We have 178 miles, and we have a fairly small, rural water system."

Scientists Identify Key Protein in Herpes Simplex Virus
Researchers at the Salk Institute have identified a key protein that allows herpes simplex virus (HSV) DNA to fly under the radar of their hosts' involuntary hospitality. Their findings may suggest a common mechanism by which viruses can successfully infect host cells.
To the host cell, invading viral DNA looks just like the product of DNA damage, which must be repaired or removed in order for the cell to stay healthy. As a result, DNA "security guards" continuously patrol our cells.
Matthew Weitzman, associate professor in the Laboratory of Genetics and the study's leader, and his team looked at what happens in a virusinfected cell when its DNA is damaged. In a normal cell, DNA damage sensor proteins rush to the site of damage. In cells infected with HSV, however, the cells' emergency repair teams don't respond correctly.
The team went on to identify a single viral protein that is to blame for knocking out the cell's security system, a protein called ICP0. They discovered that it flags for destruction two important DNA "security guards," the proteins called RNF8 and RNF168, thereby taking out the DNA damage response in human cells. ICP0 attaches so-called ubiquitin marks, which instruct the cell to get rid of the very proteins that protect it.
Delving deeper, the team looked at the role of these DNA "security guards" that are singled out by ICP0. Surprisingly, RNF8 and RNF168 also leave ubiquitin tags, but in this case, they mark regions of damage. They tag a protein called histone H2A, which directs DNA damage response proteins to accumulate at the sites of damage. The Salk team discovered that by removing RNF8 and RNF168, the viral ICP0 protein results in a decrease to the tag on the cellular H2A protein.
"We found that HSV targets the mark that is required to keep DNA damage sensors at damage sites," says postdoctoral researcher and first author Caroline Lilley. "We now think that HSV deliberately removes this mark so that the virus can infect cells without any trouble from its new host."
The findings highlight the importance of these histone marks in DNA damage. "By identifying how HSV dismantles the host's defense systems, we are shown the key steps, not only in viral infections, but also in the human DNA damage response," Weitzman explains.

Boshamer Gymnasium Has New Look; Renovations CompletedSeptember 2, 2008
Brevard, N.C. – The renovations to Boshamer Gymnasium, the home to the Brevard College women's volleyball and men's and women's basketball teams is complete. The Brevard College Athletics Department would like to give a very special thanks to the Tornado Club and to all of its members, as the booster club funded the changes and renovations that occurred all summer long.
The transformations begin on Monday, June 2, as the old wooden bleachers were taken out of the gym, removed and recycled.
On Friday, June 20, the second phase of the renovations to Boshamer Gymnasium on the campus of Brevard College was completed, as fresh new paint was put up on the interior walls of the venue. The gym now is bright with fresh white walls and blue paint surrounding the newly installed blue bleachers.
Just this past week, phase three of the renovation project was completed as new shot clock equipment and a new three-point line to meet with the new rules for the NCAA Division II men's basketball legislation were put into place.
The installation of the new chair back seats with steps and hand rails as well as brand new state of the art bleachers not only bring a new aesthetic beauty to the gymnasium but also will give all BC fans, students and spectators' safe and comfortable seating while they enjoy Tornado athletic events.
The first home event in the newly renovated Boshamer Gymnasium will take place this Friday night, September 5, when the Brevard College women's volleyball team will play host to Coker College in game one of the weekend BC Tournament. The match is slated for a 7 p.m. start time.

No. 2 UK Rifle Beats No. 8 Memphis
Oct. 27, 2013
LEXINGTON, Ky. – The University of Kentucky rifle team notched its second win of the weekend on Sunday, knocking off No. 8 Memphis 4693-4644.
"Overall I was pleased with the team's scores today," UK head coach Harry Mullins. "The team worked hard today and we are showing ourselves that we have the skills to get good numbers in various ways."
Kentucky held a narrow two-point lead after kneeling, but increased the lead to 12 after prone, 1570-1558. The Wildcats held a 2325-2303 lead entering air rifle.
Senior Emily Holsopple led the way in smallbore with a 584, while freshman Sonya May was one point behind with a 583. Senior Aaron Holsopple posted a 580 in smallbore.
Jonathan Pinkel's 579 in smallbore was a new personal best.
A strong air rifle performance pushed the Wildcats to victory, with three counters breaking 590. Emily Holsopple posted a team-best 594, with sophomore Connor Davis shooting a 593 and May delivering a 592.
Junior Ethan Marne shot a personal best 588 in air rifle. Freshman Heather Kirby recorded a 589.
"Emily had a good day with solid performances in both guns, along with Sonya May," Mullins said. "I'm proud of Ethan and Jon, each delivering new personal bests."
The eighth-ranked Tigers were led by Dan Hermsmeier in both guns, shooting a 581 in smallbore and 594 in air rifle.
"We had a little trouble at the start but came through in the clutch," Mullins said. "I feel that once we tweak some of the things we need to work on then we will get some of the things we want. We just need to stay focused on what we are doing and what we are trying to accomplish. Next week will be another good test at TCU, they are a very good opponent."
The Wildcats return to action Saturday, traveling to Fort Worth, Texas to face TCU.

Best Young Adult Books of 2011
Compiled by the Young Adult Librarian
As much as I try, I cannot read every young adult novel published in a year. These are my favorite books from all the books published within the past twelve months that I have read. Books are listed in alphabetical order by title except when an author has more than one book on the list.
Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins
Technically it came out in 2010, but I did not get a chance to read it until after I posted the 2010 favorites. I really liked the central relationship. Plus, it is set in Paris with all the yummy food and fantastic sites. This quickly became one of my favorite young adult books ever.
Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins
I was very eager to read the companion novel to Anna and the French Kiss. I did not relate as much to Lola as she is more of a free spirit; yet, I liked her growth in the book as she discovers who she was. Boy next door Cricket Bell also helped.
Bloodlines by Richelle Mead
I read the first two books in the Vampire Academy series but then could not keep up with that series. I missed the awesomeness of Adrian by not reading the later books, but Bloodlines more than made up for it. Sidney is a totally different narrator than Rose. She has spent her life being told about how terrible vampires are, and she is forced to modify her opinions once she is assigned to Jill.
Blood Red Road by Moira Young
Hunger Games ignited an interest in dystopian novels. Blood Red Road is one of the better additions to this genre. Saba is a tough heroine although she is not always sympathetic. Circumstances force her to become a cage fighter.
Chime by Franny Billingsley
Briony feels responsible for her twin sister's death. While she tentatively forms a bond with Eldric, she deals with secrets from her family's past. I liked the atmosphere of the novel and the blending or supernatural, romance, and mystery.
Cryer's Cross by Lisa McMann
Kendall's best friend disappears from their small town. Kendall manages her OCD and her feelings for the new boy in town while attempting to find out what happened to her friend. I like how the author incorporated the obsessive compulsive disorder into the story, and Kendall finds strength despite her symptoms.
Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Lani Taylor
Karou lives in Prague with the only family she has ever known – chimera. At first the reader might think the novel is just another paranormal romance, but the writing style and characterization elevate the story.
Desires of the Dead by Kimberly Derting
In the second book of the Body Finder series, Violet continues with her strange ability to find dead bodies while navigating her romantic relationship with her best friend Jay. I like how the author had realistic conflict in the relationship without having to add a love triangle.
Divergent by Veronica Roth
Goodreads users just voted this dystopian novel the best book of the year. In a future Chicago, Tris decides against a life with the faction she has known since infancy, and she chooses to join the Dauntless. In my opinion, it was the best dystopian young adult novel I have read since The Hunger Games trilogy.
Everybody Sees the Ants by A.S. King
Besides dealing with being bullied, Lucky deals with increasing tension between his parents. In his dreams, he visits his grandfather who was presumed dead in Vietnam and tries to rescue him. A.S. King's book make me laugh but also make me cry.
Fateful by Claudia Gray
What could be worse than being aboard the sinking Titanic? Being aboard with werewolves! Surprisingly entertaining.
Haunting Violet by Alyxandra Harvey
A departure from her popular Drake Chronicles, Haunting Violet follows a teenage girl who lives in Victorian England. Her mother pretends she can communicate with the dead, and Violet soon discovers that she herself has the powers her mother lacks.
Hourglass by Myra McEntire
Emerson uses her powers to manipulate time to help stop a murder that occurred six months before. A buzzed about book that was worth the hype.
The Name of the Star by Maureen Johnson
Rory witnesses a murder by a Jack the Ripper copycat after she is sent to a school in London. Although there is room for sequels, the author tied up the main story in this novel. A creepy story that you should not read too close to bedtime.
Uncommon Criminals by Ally Carter
Kat and her crew are back for another thrilling heist. Although certain relationships had not progressed as far as I wanted, I enjoyed the fast-paced story.
Honorable Mention:
City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare
I enjoy the world of the shadowhunters, but I wish Clare had allowed Clary and Jace some of the hard-won happiness they deserved after the first three books. Still for the those characters alone the book had to be mentioned.
Corsets & Clockwork by various authors
If you are a fan of steampunk, you will want to pick up this collection of stories by many popular young adult authors. I really liked Kiersten White's story and several of the other stories. On the other hand, there were a few that were barely steampunk.
The Girl in the Steel Corset by Kady Cross
More steampunk. Finley has a dangerous alter ego, and she finds people who can help her. The two sides of her personality are drawn to two vastly different men. I liked the action of the story but could have done without a love triangle.
Goliath by Scott Westerfeld
The exciting conclusion to the Leviathan trilogy. I really like the two men characters, but I thought one of them should have made a different choice at the end of the book.
What Happened to Goodbye by Sarah Dessen
Sarah Dessen is one of my all-time favorite authors. I eagerly awaited her story about a girl who changes her personality every time she moves; however, I did not love it as much as Dessens previous books.
Note: I have not read Clockwork Prince or Legend by the publication of this blog post. These books might become favorites after I read them.

Dear Soul Shines,
It has been a while since I've blogged even though I have had so many inspirational things to share. For the first time in my life I have been "forced" to slow down by my body's metamorphosis through menopause... For me, it has been like being hit by a runaway train that cracked my heart and soul wide open so the world can see me inside out and totally naked. Definitely a time to get real. Real with myself and real with God. I'm almost sure he's gotten tired of me pulling on his shirt sleeve asking so many questions. When I make it through this transformation I will be a very wise woman with even wider open arms to embrace other women in this delicate space. Becoming a sage is worth all the pain. So much love to all of you!
P.S. - We wanted to share the new November, 2012 issue of Where Women Create magazine that features the Magnolia Pearl Fashion Imaginarium and our dear friend, Carol Hicks Bolton's studio. "Thank you" with my whole heart to beautiful Jo Packham for your generosity, kindness, and love. You are one of the wisest women ever and I love you so much. I am eternally grateful.
"How does one become a butterfly? You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar."

City of Cincinnati's Port Director Apologizes About Memo
(Cincinnati)- Emails and memos about the City of Cincinnati's pricing deal are causing speculation as to whether or not the information was meant to be concealed from city leaders.
The memo, released earlier this week, states Cincinnati's parking consultant's concerns about ParkCincy's financial model for the city. Walker Parking Consultants believe that the city is going to spend far too much money within a 30-year period on operating and management fees.
The memo was dated June 20, but was not given to City Council or Port Authority members until June 21 before the lease was signed.
Laura Brunner, the director of the Port of Cincinnati, had known about the memo prior to the release and claims that she did not try to keep information about the parking lease from the city officials and the public.
Brunner and Odis Jones, former Economic Development director of Walker Consultants, were emailing each other about how to delay its release.
"I'm ready to talk about this memo. We certainly want to be as transparent as possible. We met with PG [Sittenfeld, Councilman] on Monday with his financial advisor to answer questions. Let me know when you want to talk," Otis said in the email.
Bunner then replied, "Can we wait please? How does he know it exists?"
"Office called Sam to request a copy of the Walker letter sent last Friday night, should we provide that to him make sure we also provide my response as well as Walker response acknowledging that the Walker letter was uniformed and misguided as this is a fluent process and information has and will readily change," Brunner said.
Brunner apologized on Tuesday for her statement, after the email was released to the public.
"My intention was to gain understanding of the city's plan for public release of the document written by Walker Parking Consultants," Sittenfeld said in another email. "I just learned of it that day, and wanted the opportunity to share it with the Port Authority board of directors directly, rather than have them learn of it from a news report. It was a misguided attempt to coordinate timing of the release of this information, but instead it has caused hurt feelings, for which I am truly sorry."
Sittenfeld believes that there should be an open relationship between council members and the agencies that they deal with.

Subject :
DUI/Driver's License checkpoint planned in Roseville on December 28
Contact :
Dee Dee Gunther, Police Public Information Officer 916-774-5015/257-1942
The Roseville Police Department will conduct a DUI/Driver's License Checkpoint on Friday, December 28 at an undisclosed location within the city limits, beginning at 9 p.m. and continuing until approximately 2 a.m. Saturday.
The deterrent effect of DUI checkpoints is a proven resource in reducing the number of persons killed and injured in alcohol or drug-related crashes.
Officers will be contacting drivers passing through the checkpoint for signs of alcohol and/or drug impairment. Officers will also check drivers for proper licensing, and will strive to delay motorists only momentarily. Specially trained officers will be available to evaluate those suspected of drug-impaired driving. Drivers caught driving impaired can expect jail, license suspension and insurance increases, as well as fines, fees, DUI classes and other expenses that can exceed $10,000.
In 2010, more than 10,000 people were killed nationally in motor vehicle traffic crashes that involved at least one driver or motorcycle rider with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08% or higher. In California, this deadly crime led to 791 deaths, because someone failed to designate a sober driver. Over the past three years in Roseville, DUI collisions claimed three lives and injured 156 others.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), checkpoints have provided the most effective documented results of any of the DUI enforcement strategies, while yielding considerable cost savings of $6 for every $1 spent. Based on collision statistics and frequency of DUI arrests, DUI checkpoints are placed in locations that have the greatest opportunity for achieving drunk and drugged driving deterrence. Locations are also chosen with safety considerations for the officers and the public.
"DUI checkpoints have been an essential part of the phenomenal reduction in DUI deaths that we witnessed since 2006 in California, " said Christopher J. Murphy, Director of the Office of Traffic Safety. "But since the tragedy of DUI accounts for nearly one-third of all traffic fatalities, we need the high visibility enforcement and public awareness that checkpoints provide."
Funding for this checkpoint is provided to the Roseville Police Department by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, reminding everyone to continue to work together to bring an end to these preventable tragedies. If you see a Drunk Driver--Call 911.

Tamahagane Kyoto San Series of Knives
Tamahagne is a new brand of cutlery that derives its name from the rich Japanese tradition of sword making, and the intricate layered steels involved in the process.
The 63 layer Damascus style blades of these knives are a 3-ply construction, and are formed by repeatedly rolling three separate layers together to create highly specialized solid blade steel. The blade's core is high carbon VG5 steel that has a Rockwell Hardness of approximately 59°- 60°. This hardness is a byproduct of the rolling process. The two outer layers are SUS410 stainless steel that provide strength and help keep the knife free of corrosion.
This steel formation lends itself to an extremely sharp edge that has been finished to a blade angle of 14-15 degrees. These fine blades are fixed to a comfortable compressed laminate linen handle. The bases of the knives' handles have been weighted, giving the finished piece balance. These knives are an excellent balance of tradition and technology.
Slicer Knife
11" blade.

ROCK HILL, SC -- Two operators of sweepstakes videogames have filed separate lawsuits against officials in South Carolina's York County. The suits charge that law enforcement violated the operators' rights by seizing machines that a local judge had previously declared legal.
One plaintiff, identified by local media as GM Company, sued the county's Drug Enforcement Unit Commander Marvin Brown, asserting that the DEU unlawfully seized four machines. A second plaintiff sued Sheriff Bruce Bryant; the operator said he was threatened with arrest by sheriffs if he did not cease operation of sweepstakes videogames, according to a story in the Charlotte Observer.
This means South Carolina's state and county governments are now facing multiple lawsuits from operators filed this October alone. On Oct. 15, seven operators filed a joint action against the state Attorney General's office and the State Law Enforcement Division, seeking to prevent police from seizing sweepstakes games. | SEE STORY
Brown and Bryant, the defendants in the two York County cases, said they acted lawfully and that the seizure and threat of arrests were consistent with enforcement policies of the State Law Enforcement Division and the state Attorney General.
In 2009 and early in 2012, two York County judges ordered four Palmetto Gold machines returned to operators in two unrelated cases.

Lars and The Real Girl (2007)
People have done a lot of things with sex dolls, but giving one the starring role in a comedy-drama is surely a first. Lars uses Bianca – an anatomically-correct doll – as a device to gradually cure his social awkwardness and join his community. It's both heart-warming and funny in equal measures – ideal Valentine's viewing.
10 Things I Hate About You (1999)
Relocating Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew to a high school, this is a star-packed delight, teaming up everyone from the Joker (Heath Ledger) to Robin (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and Julia Styles of Bourne film fame. Keep your eyes peeled for the Shakespeare references, of which there are many.
The Science of Sleep (2006)
A love story about a man (Gael Garcia Bernal) effectively living in his imagination and dreams, while trying to court a French girl. A tale any geek can relate to – and one that's lifted by Michel Gondry's handcrafted, whimsical direction.

Selena Gomez is having another "Spring Breakers" moment in her new video for "Come & Get It," which premiered Tuesday night on MTV. The star is baring some skin and taking on a new look in the video - another stop on her transition from Disney princess to all-grown-up pop star.
The 20-year-old embraces the Indian influences in her single and shows off her dance moves in the face of all sorts of natural elements . It was directed by Anthony Mandler, who is also behind Taylor Swift's "I Knew You Were Trouble."
She tells "MTV" she feels its the best video she's put out so far and that Anthony did a "perfect" job conveying the "earthy" feel she was going for.

That's right folks.
Today, The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame announced that it plans to celebrate its 25th Anniversary with two groundbreaking concerts, both of which are in New York at Madison Square Garden.
It's going to be quite a shindig with a slew of big names and another slew of big one-off collaborations.
Though it will surely be difficult for some fans to listen to without some sadness, on Monday, July 13, LeVert II consisting of original LeVert members, Sean Levert and Marc Gordon plus new member Blaq Rose will release their debut album appropriately titled Dedication.
To celebrate the release the surviving group members will kick off a promotional tour for the album with a CD Pre-release Party and Fan Appreciation Celebration at 9 p.m., Saturday night at Club Alchemy located at 1575 Merwin Avenue on the East Bank of Cleveland Flats.To read more or comment...

Hello there! I am very curious about handling tantrums. I have a lot of friends who already have kids and I can observe they have tantrums almost all of the time. I would like to be prepared for this one. So I want to know the causes of this and how to prevent it. Thank you and God bless!
7th June 2014 01:15 AM #2
Dear duly3nn3,
What a shame for these children. With gentle, respectful parenting I feel this shouldn't be the case. Have a read of this article for the famous gentle parenting author LR Knost: Toddlers, Tantrums, and Time-Ins, Oh My!. Focussing on connection rather than correction really can change things around.
Let me know what you thought of this article.
Warm wishes,

Awsome! The article was really full of ideas. Let me go ahead and try to make that Calm-Me-Jar! :-D
9th June 2014 02:16 AM #4
Yes I love the Calm-Me-Jar idea. I have seen that parenting from this perspective (i.e. focusing on the relationship and connection rather than the child's behaviour) has completely turned around families who were struggling with 'controlling' their children. Trying to understand the world from a toddler's point of view, and appreciating that they do not have the same use of language or control of emotions as an adult, can minimise tantrums and help those that do occur to be over quicker and not leave everyone feeling disconnected. Time-outs are for adults! - when a parent or carer needs to take some deep breathes and remember what is important in parenting. Time-ins and connection are for everyone!
I hope this gentle way of parenting helps you to form special, connected relationships with the children you know and care for.
Warm wishes,

CLEARWATER, Fla. – Saturday started out much of the same way Friday did for the Saint Leo University softball team (7-6), with a head-scratching five-inning loss, this time to SSC rival Tampa, 11-0. But the nightcap proved to be sweet once again for SLU, as they even out their trip to Clearwater with a 9-8 decision over Armstrong Atlantic at the Eckerd College Invitational.
The day did not start as planned for SLU as the team quickly found themselves in a 3-0 deficit after three Spartans connected for base hits in the first inning. Those three runs eventually proved to be the difference as the usually noisy Saint Leo bats were only able to register one hit, a lead-off single by Lions' centerfielder Tiffinee Harvey, the rest of the day.
The two teams traded zeros until the fifth inning when the Spartans broke the game open with eight runs on five hits and two Saint Leo errors to give the visitors from Tampa an 11-0 lead.
SLU couldn't respond in the bottom half of the inning as they dropped their second five-inning decision in two days.
Kristen Kelly (2-1) was saddled with the loss giving up eight hits and six runs over a four-inning stretch.
In game two, the Green and Gold flipped the switch and immediately jumped all over an impressive Armstrong Atlantic team, 2-0. Ashley Urbanik launched her second home run in as many days over the left field fence to drove home Amber Martyn who had earlier reached on a double.
SLU continued the scoring in the second as Lions' freshman third baseman Danielle Moreda sent a double down the left field line before moving to third on a Harvey single. Moreda eventually scored when Harvey was caught trying to steal second to give SLU the 3-0 lead.
After the Pirates broke onto the scoreboard in the bottom of the second, the Lions immediately responded as the duo of Urbanik and Tatiana Casis sent back-to-back home runs over the left and centerfield fences to give the Lions a 5-1 advantage. The occasion marks the fourth time a pair of Lions have gone back-to-back this season.
With the score 5-2 in favor of the Lions in the fourth, SLU took advantage of multiple miscues by the Pirates defense scoring four runs on one hit and two errors. Kasey Postupack, Casis, Martyn, and Ally Maddox all came around to score during the inning giving the Lions a 9-2 lead over the powerful hitting club from Armstrong Atlantic.
Both offenses remained quiet for the next couple innings, until Armstrong broke through against Lions' starter Ashley Urbanik in the final inning. During the inning, the Pirates scored four consecutive runs before the Lions recorded an out and six runs overall before Urbanik settled down and closed the inning and game with a pair of strikeouts.
Urbanik threw a complete game for the Lions and for the first six innings completely shut down a great Pirates' offense. She scattered eight hits on the day while picking up her fourth victory of the season.
The team collected a total of 12 hits, including four players with two hits apiece. Urbanik also helped herself out at the plate going 2-for-3 with two home runs with three RBI, while Casis went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI. Martyn and Brittany Yates also added their names to the two-hit list.
The Lions now head into single elimination at the Eckerd College Invitational. Their first opponent will be the Palm Beach Atlantic Sailfish whom the Lions defeated on Friday night by the score of 11-3. First pitch is slated for 9:00 am at the Eddie C. Moore Complex in Clearwater, Fla. The game will also be broadcasted live on the Saint Leo Lions AudioCast Network.
