LEP showcases food industry opportunities to government
The Greater Lincolnshire Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) has promoted the area's food industry following a visit from representatives from the Department for International Trade.
Nine food specialists from the DIT's Food Sector Team attended an event on Wednesday, May 16 at the National Centre for Food Manufacturing (NCFM) in Holbeach – part of the University of Lincoln – where they heard presentations on a variety of food industry topics.
They also visited Boston frozen food specialists Greenyard Frozen for an insight into the latest state of play in the food technology sector.
Martin Collison, the LEP's food consultant, spoke about the growth of the food industry and the important part Greater Lincolnshire has to play in it.
Professor Val Braybrooks, Dean of the NCFM, spoke about skills opportunities, collaboration with food industry businesses and research and development projects.
The Greater Lincolnshire LEP's Agri-food Sector Plan outlines the LEP's ambition to double the economic contribution which the food sector makes to the economy between by 2030.
Greater Lincolnshire is the largest food producing region in the UK. The area has more Grade 1 agricultural land than any other LEP area in England and it accounts for 25% of the UK's vegetable production.
Around 10% of English agriculture takes place in the Greater Lincolnshire area and 70% of the nation's fish is processed in Greater Lincolnshire.
Ruth Carver, Director of the Greater Lincolnshire LEP said: "This was a wonderful opportunity for us to highlight to the Food Sector Team at DIT that Greater Lincolnshire is the place for food and drink investment.
"We heard from several partners and local companies and focused on Lincolnshire's world-class food and drink expertise in skills, research and development, food and fish processing and automation and robotics."

I ordered this after seeing all the ads that made it seem that HiSmile seriously whitened your teeth. When I ordered a while back, they claimed it would whiten my teeth by 8 shades. Today, I went back and their claim has gone down to 2 shades. I've ordered twice in hopes that my teeth would reach the maximum white they could. However, after two purchases (12 sessions) my teeth are maybe 1 shade lighter (if I'm really pushing it). Not impressed. I am going to head to the dentist from now on. I blew 120 bucks on the stupid thing.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Hey Lily,
Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We understand that not achieving desired results may be disappointing however as each individual's teeth respond differently to the whitening process, due to this we implemented our 30-day money back guarantee!
If you do not achieve results of at least two shades whiter you can apply for your money back via the FAQ page on our website by clicking "email us" and selecting money back guarantee.
Each individuals lifestyle choices may inhibit the overall outcome of the whitening process, and we recommend limiting the intake of staining food and drinks to assist in optimal results. This is why we state you can achieve up to eight shades with our Kit, however, are confident you will achieve at least two shades whiter! We would love to chat and assist you further. I am unable to find you in our system, please email us at email@example.com
We look forward to speaking soon.

This is a brief introductory presentation to my coming series on the farce called "USA Foreign Aid." I discuss our majority being clueless on- where Kazakhstan is, and who gets our tax dollars, aka 'US Foreign Aid' there? How was our $60 billion aid spent in Egypt? How come Israel gets all these billions every year, when we are pondering the rising poverty rate in the US and many without healthcare? Why are we bombing Pakistan every day, sending drone after drone to hit them, and then, turning around and giving them billions of dollars every year?
In our next few episodes I will delve deeper into facts, context and history when it comes to this unaccountable insanity called "US Foreign Aid."

Discover How To Get Amazing Results And Achieve Great Success With Every Single Product You Get!
Discover How To Get Amazing Results And Achieve Great Success With Every Single Product You Get!
As I relax in my bed and write this to you, I'm thinking of all the wso's I've bought in my lifetime (100+).
Out of 100+ wsos, guess how many of those wsos actually put some money in my pockets, or actually contributed to my success.
50?…..Maybe 75?….Maybe 25?…
…..The answer is 5….
I only got results from 5 wsos out of over 100 wso's on my laptop.
But, the reason I only got results from 5 wsos is not because the other wsos suck, it's because I was doing a couple things wrong.
Look I used to suffer from this thing called Shiny Object Syndrome.
You've probably heard of it, if not, let me explain what it is.
Basically, shiny object syndrome is basically a habit of buying product after product after product, but never actually implementing what any of the products teach.
There is nothing wrong with buying products, but if you're not implementing anything, then you're simply wasting your money, and wasting your time.
If I knew what I know now, I would've actually got results from every single wso I purchased, and by now I would probably be a millionaire, chilling on the beach with my friends, just cooling it.
Since late August of 2013 I figured out how to get results from every wso I purchase, and now I think it's time I shared this info with YOU.
It's a fail-proof system that I use every time I buy a wso, book, or training course, which allows me to get results even if the product sucks.
Sounds pretty cool huh?
Well then let me reveal some of the details right now….
The Shiny Object Success System is a 4 part video training series plus an action plan pdf that will show you 4 effective ways to guarantee your own success from every single wso you buy.
Here is what will be revealed to you once you get instant access to the Shiny Object Success System:
- How to buy a wso, and guarantee your own success by following my proven step-by-step formula
- How to set goals that motivate you for more than a day
- How to determine the exact steps you need to take when you buy a wso to make sure you get results
- How to benefit from every wso you buy even if the wso is a piece of garbage
- How to make success easier than failure
- How to put some skin in the game and set a fire under your butt to motivate yourself to take action on a daily basis (this is just a metaphor, I don't recommend cutting yourself or lighting yourself on fire )
- How to instantly increase your confidence in the method taught in any wso which will also increase your motivation to take action
- How to actually have fun pursuing the achievement of success with the methods learned in a WSO
- The secret formula that will make you an unstoppable success no matter what business models or methods you choose

"The hardest thing when you're documenting is where do you cut," said director Denny Tedesco, who started editing his documentary The Wrecking Crew in 2006. Of the 75 subjects Tedesco interviewed, 29 made it into his film's final cut.
Even with the necessary editing, the documentary is a loving and thorough look at a revered and diverse group of musicians who plied their trade in recording studios all across Los Angeles. The documentary reveals how these artists' skills helped craft the West Coast Sound during the 1960's and early 1970's, as it features interviews with members of the Wrecking Crew (drummer Hal Blaine, keyboardist Don Randi, bassist Carol Kaye) and such icons as Brian Wilson, Herb Alpert, Cher, and Nancy Sinatra.
The entire project was a labor of love for Tedesco, as his late father Tommy Tedesco was also a member of the Wrecking Crew. Even with such an interesting topic to cover, licensing the music on the film would have reached an estimated cost of $700,000, and it's understandable why it took years (he started the project in 1995) to get The Wrecking Crew in the can.
The great news is that with a ton of perseverance, as well as the ability to generate $312,000 through the crowd funding site Kickstarter, The Wrecking Crew is finally upon us, and viewers will be treated to various members' experiences working on many of yesteryear's most beloved records.
Whether it's putting work in on Brian Wilson's masterpiece Pet Sounds or amplifying Phil Spector's "Wall of Sound," the Wrecking Crew's professionalism and craftsmanship left an indelible mark on the music industry.
Denny Tedesco, Hal Blaine and Don Randi did a string of interviews to promote The Wrecking Crew at the Professional Drum Shop in Hollywood. I had the pleasure of asking Blaine, who is a member of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, about his thoughts on working with Brian Wilson.
The Wrecking Crew hits theaters, On Demand, and iTunes on March 13.

We have a lot planned this summer to teach various aspects of COSTUME DESIGN! Here's a post from Jordan Malin, Summer Theatre's costume designer: (To learn more about Jordan and the rest of the Theatre Camp Staff check out our bios on the staff page!)
Happy Summer!!!
This year's weather has certainly been unpredictable. I'm not sure about you guys, but I have not been able to fully commit to packing away all my fall/winter clothes and fully indulge in the summer wear. Thankfully, the key to fashion is comfort and individuality. So.... why not wear those shorts with a Christmas sweater and flip flops? After all, if one of the Kardashians does it, suddenly it will be accepted, right???? Besides, being the theatre/dance/artists we all are, 80% of our time is spent in costumes, dance-wear or sweats..... So while you can, be creative and express yourself!
For the past few months I have had the privilege of working for the Karamu House in downtown Cleveland. The mission of the Karamu House is the strengthen the community through a variety of arts programs with an emphasis on the African American Culture. Basically, it is just like any other Theatre Arts Organization, but they add historical content to performances, to cultural related shows, celebrate past contributors, or do something as simply as adding African drums, costumes and music to a well known story. Simple and creative ways to effectively teach, be artistic and stay relevant.
My point to both of these topics is, don't be afraid to think outside the box! Be inspired by others, but don't be defined. Bring your thoughts and ideas to life. Here are two fun exercises you can try if you're feeling artsy and creative.
1. Use your favorite art materials, paints, markers, crayons, pastels...etc. Take a plain white piece of paper or canvas. Without using any words, numbers or symbols express who you are through a colorful design you create. Feel it through the colors you use, the textures, the shapes. Think of things that you love, things that make you sad, things you dream about, things you would to change...all things that trigger emotions.
Be free, passionate and celebrate yourself!
2. The second exercise is all about "thinking outside the box." Think of any really well known story, movie or play. Keep the story exactly the same, but change either the setting, time period, or costumes. If you want to draw the costumes and characters, awesome! Same with the houses or set design. If you are more comfortable writing your idea out, go for it! Be creative and make sure it doesn't change the story at all. For example, who says Cinderella can't be dressed in all 80's clothes, or do we really know where Little Miss Muffet was sitting when the spider scared her away? A playground? A disco? The possibilities are endless!
Good luck and see you all soon!
Why TrueNorth Summer Theatre? First off, TrueNorth in general is a dream for me because it is a theatre and a nature preserve!!! I love, love animals and the arts! Second, this staff is so hip and "now". It's so important to learn the basics and history of theatre, which you will, but theatre is changing and this staff is young, professional, experienced and current. I look forward to learning from them too!
NYC or LA? I've only been to LA once.... And my friends and family are in NYC, sooo.. NYC.
What is your favorite thing to do with friends? Games nights! Lots of board games at someone's house and comfy clothes.
What is something you've learned from theatre that you use in real life? Singing and dancing cures all.
What is the grossest thing you can think of? Hatred
What's your favorite musical? Gypsy! Whenever I need inspiration, I YouTube Bernadette Peter's performance of Rose's Turn. Love!
Gale or Peeta? I don't know the Hunger Games :( But based on Google images I think that Gale is cuter!
(FUN TIP: The 30 actors in the current Networks touring production of Beauty & the Beast wear over 850 costume pieces and 80 wigs! Check out this backstage tour with the director- Rob Roth.)

The changes, if they go through, will significantly improve the state of New York law, and protect parental rights and donors' rights.
Many New York parents are currently in a very scary legal environment, and they may not even know it. Did you know that a hopeful single parent who turns to a known sperm donor to conceive in New York has no way to sever the donor's parental rights? That's right. And that means that a sperm donor can, at any time, seek parental rights to the child. Vice versa, the parent can seek child support from the sperm donor. That's concerning! The situation is also true for egg and embryo donations.
New York attorney and adoption and assisted reproductive technology powerhouse, Denise Seidelman, spoke to me about the current problematic legal environment, as well as her ongoing efforts to fix the situation, and to protect parents and children. Seidelman and her law partner, Nina Rumbold, are among those in New York zealously advocating for the passage of the Child-Parent Security Act (CPSA).
Even The Governor Wants It!
The CPSA was introduced in 2013 by Assemblymember Amy Paulin and State Senator Brad Hoylman. Hoylman is himself a parent of two children born through surrogacy. Hoylman and his husband were forced to go outside of New York to have their children through surrogacy because, in addition to the bleak donor situation, compensated surrogacy is illegal in New York.
The CPSA has undergone a number of revisions since its initial proposal, and is still undergoing a few finishing touches. But not until this year did anyone have as much hope that this legislation could pass. Key among factors giving New Yorkers newfound optimism is the vocal support of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. The Governor has publicly supported the bill, explaining that "New York's antiquated laws frankly are discriminatory against all couples struggling with fertility, same sex or otherwise." Even more exciting, the Governor initially included the CPSA in his executive budget plan. However, it was removed in the last few weeks — possibly out of an interest in letting the legislature pass the bill with the latest updates.
What's So Special About This Bill?
It protects children, for one! No kid should be stuck in the middle of a legal battle questioning who his or her legal parent is, merely because New York's laws are decades out of date. Specific protections for families and those who help them include:
- Clarifying and protecting parental rights when a sperm donor, egg donor, or embryo donor assists with conception. About time! Seidelman explained that while the surrogacy aspects of the bill are getting most of the attention, she is especially excited about the positive impact of the donor-related provisions. The bill provides that those who turn to a donor can be assured that they are the legal parents of their child, and that a donor can't claim parental rights to the child. And, on the other side, that donors can rest easy that their good deed of helping another family no longer opens them to the risk of later being sued for child support for the child. This protection could encourage more couples to donate remaining embryos to others to form their families, rather than destroying them or donating them to research.
- Legalizing compensated gestational surrogacy. At the moment, New York is among a small minority of U.S. states which dictate that a woman is not permitted to receive compensation if she chooses to act as a gestational surrogate for another. In fact, it's criminal.

"Forget mere sex and the city… Kissing in Manhattan features die-hard romantic strivers in a surreal turn-of-the-millennium New York ruled by the spirit of improbable happy endings."
— The New York Times Book Review
"Schickler has a wild, out-of-left-field dramatic imagination that's really fresh. The way his characters take you, as well as one another, by surprise is terrific fun."
— New York magazine
"Like figures in a strange, spiky, urban frieze, the characters of Schickler's striking debut novel-in-stories pose, strut and cross paths in a darkly romantic, surreal Manhattan. … Schickler is a fabulist for the 21st century, a skewed Scheherazade."
— Publishers Weekly
"One of the most charming and memorable debuts this year is Kissing in Manhattan…. Tenderness and darkness are around every corner … There are Gothic overtones, bits of magical realism, moments of true eroticism with hints of danger…. This tender, lovely book and these love-starved and hopeful individuals linger like a reader's dream."
— The New Orleans Times-Picayune
"With these wonderfully haunting, strange, and hilarious stories, David Schickler has established himself as a major new voice in American fiction."
— Ron Hansen, author of Mariette in Ecstasy and Hitler's Niece
"Schickler's playfully alive voice is uniquely his own — sprightly, exact, Herculean in all the fundamentals. What talent! From beginning to end, here you have some of the most pleasurable storytelling of this — or any — year."
— Darin Straus, author of Chang and Eng

Hue, the emporers' capital for quite some time. Its citadel and tombs tell some of Vietnam's glory history. The citadel reminds one of BeiJing's Forbidden City. And the tombs, some 200 years old, are left pretty much in their original state, hence can convey an atmosphere of history. But, alas, also they are being more and more restaurated. Hopefully to the better (some finished parts of the palace look great!), but that touch of historic atmosphere might get lost as it often did in similar places we've seen in China.

Hoi An – Town, My Son, and Beach
HoiAn was a tranquil village when I was there 2 years ago. It has changed, though. As Nina put it: "I would still recommend visiting HoiAn, but it's getting too much commercialized." While I certainly remembered a lot of things and found some places I had been before, there had also a lot of cozy hang-out places gone and been replaced by the 36th incarnation of a souvenir shop/gallery/clothes shop. In general, the restaurants moved up by half a category, as did their prices. And the number of western-style dishes on the menu increased dramatically. Hurry up, if you still want to see a Vietnamese HoiAn! Continue reading Hoi An – Town, My Son, and Beach
Saigon – Other Part Of Town
Arrival in Saigon was largely uneventful. The cheap Air France flight turned out to be a flight from Paris with stop-over in Bangkok. The only little hassle was to find a taxi, which we could only get from the departure level of the airport: There was a taxi stand…not at the arrival level. The taxi driver had some issues finding our hotel, though it was one of the better places in town (on the first night we played safe). But in the end everything was no hassle. Except for the temperatures…even the locals sweat like waterfalls and complain. There's little rain these days, despite the calendar saying it's raining season.

Surviving – Notes on Leading an Ordinary Life III
We lost :(( all the heavy work in the last two weeks in vain. That's life, you can't win them all. But at least I know that I still can work and can add value. And I was reminded that there are a lot of capable and friendly colleagues around, who can make even long hours of work a rewarding experience. Although I have to watch out that I don't loose the work-life- balance. It might sound improbable to many non-consultants, but I consider it an achievement not to boot up the company's laptop, not to check company email during the entire weekend during such a highly important phase like a proposal is. I even missed the message about us having lost the deal for a full day as I had not checked my mail until the previously announced deadline. Continue reading Surviving – Notes on Leading an Ordinary Life III
Surviving – Notes on Leading an Ordinary Life II
I've recently seen a note of some insane workaholic, who transported the impression that he loved returning to work after some months of vacation. How crazy can people become to replace vacation with tough work through long hours??? Hello, nock, nock, anyone at home? Drinking beer and going out for lunch with colleagues isn't exactly the definition of "work", is it?
I tell you a secret from this week's experience: It is absolutely no fun to work an estimated 60 hours between Monday morning and Friday noon and produce about 80 pages of five times reviewed output in our Kronberg office far away from any bar, which would offer a nightly beer. None! Instead delivered pizza in carton boxes…oh, I hadn't really missed that. Worth noting: Sleeping in trains while commuting doesn't seem to be as effective as sleeping in your own bed.
I'm sitting here now at home at 7pm, my kitchen looks like hit by a bomb, and I can't even enjoy any feeling of a great achievement because I simply have difficulties looking straight ahead, so tired am I. This afternoon I had to ask a friend who I met for a coffee to pay for me…how embarassing…I simply ran out of cash, no time fetching new cash.
Fun working…what a bullshit! These guys should be prosecuted!
The most fun we had was about spelling mistakes (sorry, that's mostly for Germans with English slang knowledge…) like
- Fackonzept
- Schittstelle
- Projektleier
I will now try to find something to eat in the left-overs of the kitchen and then have a good night's rest. And if tomorrow I find this mad guy I gonna have a serious talk with him!
Updates 9:30pm:
- In the battlefield formerly known as my kitchen the Parmesan cheese had gone mouldy. Shit happens. Tough luck only if you note that only after spreading it over all your pasta. Hope I won't be sick tomorrow, couldn't throw away all the pasta, just tried to remove as much as possible of the cheese.
- When removing my brand-new shirts from the washing machine I had to note that something was still in the white-with-black-stripes shirt's breast pocket. Damn, I though, used once only and already useless due to coloring from a forgotten note. But wrong: It turned out to be a 20 Euro bill, which I had pocketed before lunch in case I would need to load the cantina debit card with money. But I need not and forgot to return the money into my wallet. That left me without cash in the cafe and the knowledge that real European money is indeed extremely colorfast: The bill is clean, but no color rubbed off to the shirt. Washing money might be illegal, but doesn't harm you shirts 😉
Today's Lesson: European money is colorfast.

Surviving – Notes on Leading an Ordinary Life
I work again. Quite suddenly. 10 days ago I received a call of a colleague and couldn't say "No". Proposal, tough work usually. But honestly…it started to be a bit boring just to sit there all day and sort photos. About the only thing I got done was uploading a number of best-of series to Flickr. No appointments, no deadlines. I became very inefficient. One day I wanted to send a letter with registered post, so I had to get to the post office. I messed around all day until I noticed that the post office would close soon…at 6:30pm. I hurried there just to note that by now all ordinary people had returned from work and queued up in long lines in front of the post office to deal with their post chores. I had to wait in line for about 20 minutes. Continue reading Surviving – Notes on Leading an Ordinary Life
I'm back home in Frankfurt after five months of travelling. The flight was eventless, but the welcome in Germany everything but warm. Literally and metaphorically. Long queues in front of immigration, which was a rare thing to see, especially as here I can go through the supposingly quick "EU Residents" channel. The immigration officers were even a bit more friendly than usual, joking a bit, though they sent the Japanese off to the right queue with bad English and again a bit harsh. Why do immigration officers need to be so harsh all around the world? Mostly at least… I remember one poster I believe in the Malaysian landborder checkpoint reminding the officers to offer a smile. It didn't help much. But in general I keep thinking that the German officers are the most blunt. It isn't a great job to look at a passport and put it into a computer reader, I agree. But they have chosen that job, haven't they? And immigration officers are the first people to be seen by visitors to the country. As we all know: It's the first impression for which you don't have a second chance… Continue reading Epilogue
Singapore (IV) Zoo and Bye
A Quickie as I'm sitting at the airport already, checked-in and all. Just had to start my laptop anyway to charge my iPod, which I forgot before…darn! And this is still Singapore, so there's no shortage of WLAN. As announced earlier I paid a visit to the Zoo today. It's a big zoo, especially in terms of area usage. There might be zoos with more different species, but the arrangement in the park area is really a worthwhile visit. When thinking of 'zoo' I still picture my first one back in Rheine, the small city I was born in. (Now called NaturZoo Rheine.) Probably a small zoo…but I was less than six years old and all looked great and big and especially sunny to me. So zoo is always something good! 😉 (We probably never went to the zoo during rain…that's why a zoo is always sunny to me.) For getting there see Night Safari…I took the same way this time again. Continue reading Singapore (IV) Zoo and Bye
Singapore (III) Lazy Sightseeing
After yesterday's running through all Singapore and back I put in a more lazy day today. Despite it being the last full day of travelling I didn't want to overdo it. Not now at the end! 😉 And anyway…the limited size of Singapore gives only a limited number of sights to see. Some I don't need to see (not yet another bird park, for example), and the zoo I parked for tomorrow. But some of the city of Singapore was still left to be explored. Continue reading Singapore (III) Lazy Sightseeing

Developer Ryan Ogulnick is scaling down a controversial plan for a large apartment complex in Santa Ana along North Main Street right across from the Discovery Cube, which has been intensely opposed by residents of the surrounding Park Santiago neighborhood.
After two city council meetings, stalled by hours of residents decrying the project in public comments, as well as a mobilized opposition by Park Santiago's neighborhood association, city council members refused to vote on Ogulnick's proposal on Feb. 19, instead sending it back to the planning commission for revision.
No date has been set up for the planning commission to revisit the proposal. At the Feb. 19 meeting, council members indicated the planning commission might not revisit the proposal for another three to six months.
That brought Ogulnick to a Monday evening meeting with Park Santiago residents, where he unveiled three different iterations of a plan to downsize the density and number of stories in the apartment complex, originally proposed at five stories and containing 476 units on a nearly six-acre parcel of land.
Ogulnick said none of the three possible plans, some of which include either bringing the project below 400 units or capping it at two or three stories, have been decided on yet.
But "In my 23 years of doing this, we've never modified a project to the extent that we've modified it tonight," Ogulnick told a crowd of critical residents, many sitting with arms crossed at the meeting. "We're here to react to" resident concerns around the project's potential traffic effects "and be more reasonable than we started," he said.
Some homeowners thanked Ogulnick for showing his face at the meeting, but there wasn't a visible shift in attitude amongst a majority of the crowd that evening toward the project, even as Ogulnick told the crowd he plans to spend $1.4 million on improvements and maintenance of the neighborhood's Santiago Park, as well as hire security to patrol the area.
"I think it's fair to say that the neighborhood still favors the position of no apartments," said Rob Richardson, a Park Santiago resident and former city council member, after the meeting.
"I don't think anybody heard anything last night that makes them want to climb on board," he added. "The truth of the matter is, the kind of presentation we got last night is the presentation we needed a long time ago."
"We appreciated the fact the applicant came in with several plans and took the time to talk with us," said Dale Helvig, a member of the North Santa Ana Preservation Alliance, a group that formed in response to the initial development proposal. "We need to study those plans and look forward to continuing with followup community meetings to arrive at a solution that is equitable to all."
Residents, writing their questions on slips of paper for moderators to read off to Ogulnick, also wanted to know whether it was true that Ogulnick's team was offering money to Park Santiago residents opposed to the project.
One person asked Ogulnick about an allegation that one homeowner was offered around $30,000 in home improvements outside City Hall during the Feb. 19 council meeting.
"That's absolutely not true," said Ogulnick, who also that night denied involvement in the funneling of $300,000 in undisclosed dark money into the 2018 city council and mayoral elections, and denied paying people to speak out in support of the project at the Feb. 19 meeting.
The crowd then erupted into chatter, prompting him to add that what his company has offered, "from day one," is a budget for home improvements for anyone whose home was affected by the construction of the project.
"So, yes?" the moderator responded.
"Oh my," replied Ogulnick, chuckling under his breath while looking down, seemingly frustrated by the line of questioning.
When asked by Voice of OC how much money was in that budget for home improvements, Ogulnick said after the meeting that the budget is "flexible."
"There's nothing nefarious about it."

Iowa Central first baseman Devin Porter led a quartet of Triton baseball players on the 2018 All-Region Team, as he earned a spot as a first teamer.
Porter, who prepped at Saydel High School, enjoyed a great freshman campaign, leading the Tritons in nearly every offensive category. For the year, Porter hit .342, with 11 home runs, and 44 RBI. His .514 OBP ranks as the sixth best for a single season Iowa Central player all time. In conference games, Porter finished in the top ten in the ICCAC in doubles (2nd), triples (1st), RBI (8th), walks (2nd), hit by pitch (1st), OBP (5th), Slugging (7th), and extra base hits (1st).
Freshman Andres Ortiz was named to the 2nd Team of the All-Region squad. Ortiz was a catalyst atop the Triton batting order, finishing the year with a .327 batting average, four home runs, 32 RBI, and 29 stolen bases (7th all-time for a single season Iowa Central player). His five triples on the season rank fifth in Triton history. Within conference play, Ortiz was a top ten player in stolen bases (3rd), triples (7th), and hits (8th).
Sophomore pitchers Max Steffens and Rafael Melo were named All-Region Honorable Mention. Steffens' overall record was 5-3, 3-1 against conference foes. He struck out 59 in 68 overall innings and fired two complete games. Melo, the Triton's closer, saved six games on the season, with three in conference play, and struck out nearly eleven batters per nine innings.

Welcome to the 21st video in the secrets to drawing video course brought to you by the virtual instructor dot com in this video we're going to start with portraiture and begin by taking a look at facial proportions . We'll begin drawing a face from the front do you. I'm going to start this by drawing a circle. This circle where represent the cranium of the person that we are drawing draw lightly at the beginning stages. Next how observed the length of the person's face. And I will draw a line down from the center of the circle that we drew. Now we'll connect the edges of our circle with the bottom portion of the line that we just drew to represent the sides of the face. Since the lines we are drawing here are the jaw bone of the figure. We need to consider that women generally have a softer line here and men generally have a more angular line here. Now we need to decide where the eyes will be found on our head. The odds are generally found in the middle of the head so we can use the line that we drew from the top of the circle to the bottom of the chin to help us find our line . Once we've established where the ads will be placed we need to decide on the size of the eyes. For most people you can fit five eyes on the one from ear to ear. Remember that the ears extend out beyond the sides of the face a little bit on both sides. We can mark where our two should be found . Now we'll take a moment and draw each one of the eyes. Remember that this video is about facial proportions. I won't be spending a lot of time giving you instruction on how to draw each facial feature since we'll be covering that in the next video . You can add the eyebrowed directly above the AH. It's important to really observe your subject here because everyone's eyebrow is different. Each highbrows a little bit of a different shape and has placed a little bit differently above each other. Now that we've defined our eyes it's time to look at where our nose would be found. The nose is generally halfway between the eyes and the chin. So again we can use our original line in our eyeline to figure out where our nose should be placed. In addition for most people the inside corners of the eyes will line up with the outside edges of the nose. Again this is a generality and doesn't apply to everyone . Now that we've added our eyes and our nose we can now move on to the mouth. Conveniently the mouth is almost halfway between the nose and the bottom of the chin. Also for most people the inside portions of the Auris of the generally line up with the corners of the mouth so we can again use our original line and this time our nose line and the bottom of the chin to help us find the position of the mouth. Again I'll quickly draw the mouth here. Keeping in mind in our next video will look at each one of these features in depth now that we have our main facial features defined on our face we can move on to the ears the ears are found between the outline and the nose line. We can begin our ear on the outline and bring it up just slightly the bottom of the ear should line up with the bottom part of the nose. This again is a generalization as some people's ears are larger and others are smaller. Once we have our ears defined we can bring lines down to indicate the neck. Next is time to define where the hair is going to be. I'll begin with where the hairline is it's going to drop down a bit from the very top of our head . Once the hairline is defined we can draw the outer portion of the hair. Notice that the hair comes off of the head quite a bit . I'll add a bit of information about where certain areas get darker and other areas get lighter so that when I go back and add my value the task is easier now that I've got my lines define our race in each trademarks before I start to add shading. Now I can go in and add shading to the face to make the drawing look more realistic . I can also add value shading to the hair and take a closer look how this is done. Next Next let's take a look at facial proportions from the profile of you or the side view. Here again I'll start by drawing a circle to represent the cranium. This time I'll bring a line down the side of the face. This line juts out before receding. I'll bring the line in and then back up slightly. I'll go ahead and add some indication of a neck . Let's go ahead and decide where we'll be found on our profile of you again the odds are generally found in the middle of the head . So using the line we just true will draw a line for the US. Next we'll decide where the nose is. Again the nose is generally in the middle of the outline in the bottom of the chin . We can take a look at the contours of our photo reference or our model and draw the nose and the brow on in their proper positions . Next we can figure out where the mouth should be. Remember the mouth is almost halfway between the nose and the chin. Again it's very important for us to pay attention to the contours that happen from the profile view everyone's profile view is slightly different. So you really have to observe your subject here . Now I'll go back and begin to draw the in the proper location. I had a few details to the nose and add an eyebrow . Now I had a few more lines to help to define the lips as well. Now let's decide where our ears are going to be located. The ears are just past half way towards the back side of the head. Again this is a generalization . Now I can add value to the face and shading to help further the illusion . So what do we learn in this video. Well first and foremost we learn that facial proportions are merely estimates. There is no substitute for pure observational drawing. Keeping that in mind we also learned that generally the eyes are found in the middle of the head. We also learn that generally speaking the nose is found half way between the eyes and the bottom of the chin. We also learned that the mouth is almost halfway between the nose and the bottom of the chin. We learned that the corners of the eyes generally lined up with the edges of the nose. We also learned that the inside portions of the iris generally line up with the corners of the mouth and the next video will take a look at each one of these facial features and depth

Often, engagements inherit an existing site – along with all of its baggage. Here are some of the most common problems I've found.
Many design engagements are to "fix" an existing site
Very rarely do we design with a clean slate. If we had the luxury of doing it over – and doing it right – then the task of a deep structural re-design would still be substantial, but it would be simpler. Nonetheless, some usability problems are superficial "coat of paint" issues, which can be addressed fairly easily.
The first step in the process is often to make a preliminary site evaluation.
This analysis is often based on heuristic analysis, which offers a fast track to insight.
the Usual Suspects
Here is some of the low-hanging fruit.
No Summary Overview
- You are allowed (or required) to work with a broad range of attributes but are given no concise overview.
- You have to scroll through a looooong page in order to find out what's there.
- There are no references, no clues and no context.
There are several versions of the same feature.
- They all looked similar
- They all performed variations on the same function
- But they each had different titles.
- Windows proliferate like bunnies
- You see the "same" page at different places in the service – under a different name – but it operates differently in each case.
- Action buttons have different names and appear in different positions from page to page.
- Terminology varies across the site.
- Maintain consistent terminology between control label (buttons & hyperlinks) and the title of the page it invokes. The labels on buttons and hyperlinks are often contradictory, redundant, inconsistent and confusing.
- Some choices have literally hundreds of items to choose from. But there are no filtering tools to assist in making the choice.
- You have a slew of parsing tools cluttering up the screen – but only a few items in the list.
- A well-designed system does not present you with an unmanageable number of choices. How often do you get beyond the first 100 items in a list? (Yes, it can happen – But that is for the most part a special case.)
- The navigation structure imposes unproductive pages and extra mouseclicks on vital processes. I'm always stunned when I encounter an index list with only one item.
- The website structure may reflect a logical hierarchy that is inappropriate or irrelevant. It's not that it doesn't make some theoretical sense, but it doesn't reflect common sense.
The legacy site maintains totally different – yet functionally incompatible – versions of a feature. This meant that you could perform certain functions on one, but not on the other.
- different management tools
- totally different behavior
- totally different page layout & design
Poor Layout
Many of the pages in the legacy site are simply badly designed. Some of the most common offenses:
- Excessive white space in the upper regions of the page wastes valuable presentation area
- The focal information area is crammed to the bottom and overflows the page boundaries
- Disjointed layout of data boxes
- Distracting use of color (colorful boxes draw attention away from the focal table of information)
- Inappropriate use of color emphasizes information that is not really important
- There is often no way to tell what to do next – Provide a "look ahead" and employ reasonable assumptions about the next step.
- A blank slate is rarely helpful – and is often a real challenge. Fill in the blanks with some of those reasonable assumptions: Even if you guess wrong 60% of the time, you've still made life easier for 40% of your users (and the 60% have some idea of what to do next).
- Indicate where relevant tools / information / assistance might be. No need to clutter up the UI with unasked for "help", but if I need it, I should be able to invoke it quickly and easily.
Context Issues
- Reduce the visual dominance of the menu areas relative to content area. Your focus should be on the content materials.
- Every page should have a title that confirms what it is.
- Every page should have visual "design clues" that let you know where you are. Employ appropriate shortcuts.
- Break the items in the Navigation menu into sensible and manageable groups. These do not need to be labeled, but should be at the very least separated.
- The organizational context of the selected document is often lost when you click on a document within a MegaProcess.
Vaughan's Law: Anything – anything at all – can be done badly
Vaughan's Law is not a challenge to do things badly. It is cautionary. Sometimes you'll be told that 'such and so doesn't work because…' followed by an example. It's worth remembering that 'even good things can be done wrong.'
Scale, Scope, Agenda
Based on our initial evaluation of the legacy website, we already have a thumbnail impression of what's good, what's not and what's missing – as well as a sense of what we need to do about each.
What's good : Keep it, though possibly rearrange it
What's not : Fix it
What's missing : Find it, add it, create it The "Low Hanging Fruit"
Legacy Issues tend to fall in the category What's Not : i.e. Relatively obvious stuff which might be described as best practices, standards, or … common sense. But that's another thread.
The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of your act. — the Law of Probability

Qualified Ed Expenses
Following all these years, we're nevertheless taking cues from Comenius' original quest: To seek and to discover those methods of instruction which will best aid students to turn out to be knowledgeable, effective and humane teachers, teachers who will feel carefully and clearly about how their beliefs, practices, and decisions will influence the lives of kids. Democrats tend to view colleges positively, with the survey finding comparable majorities across age, education and income. The Teacher Education applications are accredited by the State of Iowa. Other people's minds can be challenging to predict, particularly with unknowable alterations in circumstance between now and then. Introduction to studying and behavior traits of students with exceptional studying demands, identification and classification systems, inclusionary practices, strategies and teaching strategies, proof-based practices and the improvement of the Person Education Program.
Leading ten Examinees September 2016 Teachers Board Exam – Elementary Level. The Seattle Education system is not intended to lead to teacher certification. From an financial point of view, studies show there is little contest: The pay gap among men and women with 4-year college degrees and everyone else is larger than ever. Boot camp, standard instruction, officer coaching college, and other courses presented by the military are often eligible for college credit as properly. In a study final year of attitudes about the state of American jobs, majorities in each parties – regardless of their level of educational attainment – said a 4-year degree prepares someone really or somewhat effectively for a well-paying job in today's economy.
Finally, education systems need to have to be versatile to adapt to multiple migration processes and situations. In terms of donations, this piece from Medium seems like a good location to commence. The information Nate Triggs has gained from the farm could not be from books, but it is shaping his vision of his future, and of what he could do after graduating from Topeka High if he gets a college education. Oranim offers top-notch academic research in a wide range of fields, which includes a broad variety of academic training programs for educators.
Prior to you start applying for grants, it is a great idea to take what variety of college you will be making use of into consideration. It accepted earlier state funding cuts, promised state common fund increases of three-four{3ad23b1bdb7d053fa995fc5a592713fe6f66191bc56664444b6c4579d42e8345} per year, which it paired with tuition increases of 7-ten{3ad23b1bdb7d053fa995fc5a592713fe6f66191bc56664444b6c4579d42e8345} per year. Community colleges have to be cost-free," says the bill's author, Assemblyman Miguel Santiago (D-Los Angeles). At the exact same time, universities have produced their personal workforces into microcosms of the dual economy that most voters hate: faculties are divided in between a shrinking tenured elite and the contingent masses who comprise about 70 {3ad23b1bdb7d053fa995fc5a592713fe6f66191bc56664444b6c4579d42e8345} of the instructional workforce.

Do you thrive on weight lifting workouts? Are you ready to walk away from overcrowded commercial gyms? Do the logistics of getting to the gym around busy work and lifestyle commitments mean that you miss out on workouts?
The convenience of being able to work out on your own schedule, without commuting, without waiting to use equipment, and without navigating pools of other people's sweat makes setting up your own home gym a no-brainer.
When you start to visualise your ideal home gym decked out with all the weight lifting equipment you could ever need, it's easy to develop an extensive wish list, especially if you're transitioning from a commercial gym. However, with a bit of planning, you can set up your own gym, complete with all the weight lifting equipment you need, with a relatively small initial outlay. Your gym and your workouts will probably evolve with time, but we've compiled a short list of weights and equipment that are our top picks to get you training at home and achieving results.
Barbell and weight plates
For weight lifters setting up a home gym, it makes sense to start out by investing in a barbell and range of weight plates. A barbell and weights are probably the most important and versatile pieces of weight training equipment you can buy. Even if this is all you start off with, you'll have everything you need for a whole body work out, and you'll be able to tailor exercises to work every muscle group, and make solid progress, no matter what your fitness goals are.
On that topic, are you weight training for size, strength or endurance? They're all slightly different beasts, and the weights and reps in your program should be finessed to help you most effectively reach your goal. Check out this article for a good explanation of the different approaches to each type of training, and how you can set up a weight lifting program with the right weights and reps to get you where you want to be.
Weight lifting bench
A weight lifting bench will really let you take advantage of the full range of exercises you can do with your barbell, and will take a central position in your home gym. Benches can also provide a useful platform for stretching and extensions of bodyweight-based exercises. Pick a bench that allows for incline to support a greater range of exercises.
Kettlebells are the new dumbbell. Kettlebell training increases strength, power, speed and coordination as well as core stability. Kettlebells are also highly portable, and require minimal storage room. We stock a range of kettlebell weights from 4kg right up to 32kg. Many kettlebell exercises recruit all the major muscle groups simultaneously, making for a highly effective workout. Check out this high intensity workout which only requires two kettlebells (and a lot of sweat).
Home gym equipment package: an economical way to have it all now
A power rack is the ultimate piece of home gym equipment for almost anyone training with weights because of the variety, extension and safety that a rack offers. While racks are a big-ticket item, if you're purchasing other equipment such as barbells and plates, it may be worthwhile investigating whether you're able to combine your set up purchases into a package, and take home a power rack as part of a starter package.
Currently, Atomic Mass is offering a half rack package for more than $500 less than the retail price of buying the component parts individually. The package includes:
- Commercial squat rack
- Flat bench
- Olympic weight tree
- 150kg Atomic Mass bumper plates
- Olympic premium barbell with quad bearing
- Aluminium locking collars
We also offer a lifetime frame warranty on our benches, racks and weight trees. This means that if you somehow manage to break it, we'll replace it!
If you've got any questions about the best equipment for your home gym, or you'd like to talk through getting set up, we're happy to assist – just give us a call on 07 3170 3787 or email us via our contact form.

A great "aha" moment this week, for which I am truly grateful to everyone in the MKMMA, as you're all part of my MKMMA journey!
From our MK Lesson 15-20, we learned (again) that "if we wish our ideal to be beautiful or strong, we must see that the words out of which this temple will eventually be created are exact…because accuracy in building words and sentences is the highest form of architecture in civilization and is a passport to success."
Words. Hmmmm. Well, OG's writing style in Scroll 3 didn't quite sit well with me, so I resolved to re-write any challenging passages in future scrolls. Soooooo, my mini Scroll 4 reads:
"I am nature's greatest miracle
– rare and valuable
– with infinite potential
I am a sister to all – yet I am a unique creature.
I proclaim my uniqueness and the uniqueness of my services in the market place.
The miracle of my birth I extend beyond my birth,
beyond today
[as I become…
"…the grandest version of the greatest vision I've ever had about myself." (quote: Conversations with God, N.D. Walsch]
I am here on earth for a purpose
– to grow into a mountain
– not to shrink to a grain of sand.
I see all discouragements as great opportunities and I emerge victorious."
[You could stop reading now if you'd like the short version of this blog – but then you wouldn't know what the aha was ;-))]
And the aha?
The 5th last paragraph of Scroll 4:
"No beast, no plant, no wind, no rain, no rock, no lake had the same beginning as I, for I was conceived in love and brought forth with a purpose. In the past I have not considered this fact but it will henceforth shape and guide my life."
Just a little challenge here, as I was not conceived in love. In fact, my mother tried to commit suicide by putting her head in a gas oven when she discovered she was pregnant with me. This is for information only – because this gets much more exciting very soon 😉
How to make sense of this little stumbling block? I looked to Haanel's writing.
In MK Lesson 15-7, we learn that "All conditions and experiences that come to us do so for our benefit. Difficulties and obstacles will continue to come until we absorb their wisdom and gather from them the essentials of further growth." Do you see the connection with OG above? This is HUGE!!!
And 15-8 continues "That we reap what we sow is mathematically exact. We gain permanent strength exactly to the extent of the effort required to overcome difficulties."
And, in MK 15-26: "…the all-important truth that a thought containing principle is vital and therefore contains life and consequently takes root, and eventually but surely and certainly displaces the negative thoughts, which by their very nature can contain no vitality, is one which seems to have been overlooked."
15-27: "But this is a fact which will enable you to destroy every manner of discord, lack and limitation."
15-28: "There can be no question but that he who 'is wise enough to understand' will readily recognize that the creative power of thought places an invincible weapon in his hands and makes him a master of destiny."
So, those of you who happened to read my week 14 blog realize that I had the Fear / Paralysis Reflex (FPR for short) re-emerge over the holidays. You'll notice I did not make the FPR "possessive!" The FPR emerges in utero at 5 weeks and, if all goes well, merges into the Moro (infant "startle") reflex at about 12 weeks in utero. However, if there's trauma in utero (gas oven, no pilot light = toxins = trauma), the FPR may not develop and become fully inhibited – in which case the FPR and Moro Reflexes can run like a pair of sub-programmes, triggering other primitive and postural reflexes throughout one's life.
And because the FPR is a "withdrawal" reflex that emerges at the embryonic stage rather than at the fetal stage, the way the cells "protect" the embryo is to coat the cells with a hard protein covering. While these proteins "protect" the embryo, they also make it difficult for the cells to take in nutrients or expel toxins. Not an ideal situation.
The Fear/Paralysis Reflex is very often present in people who are hyper-shy, hyper-sensitive, have experienced trauma (whiplash, PTSD, stroke, illness) as well as in children Autism / Asperger's, Sensory Processing Disorders, ADHD, Balance/Coordination challenges, all the Dys's (dyslexia, dyspraxia, dysgraphia, etc.), memory challenges, anxiety, etc.
Now, one of my challenges in my business has been to "choose a niche market" – you can see that there are MANY possibilities!!! Choosing "just one" niche was soooo difficult IN THE PAST. BUT TODAY, I GET IT!
Going back to OG's 5th last paragraph: I was "brought forth with a purpose. In the past I have not considered this fact but it will henceforth shape and guide my life." But what purpose?
We know that our best work reflects our life's journey. Well, there have been a lot of traumas in my life and I think I got bogged down in the variety of these traumas and so my thinking was clouded.
With a little help from Haanel – the Intro to Part 15 – the LIGHT BULB WENT ON when, when he described the experiments with parasites that developed wings when their food/water source disappeared:
"Experiments such as these indicate that Omniscience as well as Omnipotence is omnipresent and that the tiniest living thing can take advantage of it in an emergency."
Therefore, an "tiny" embryo experiencing an emergency in utero goes into "withdrawal" – and it's a tad tricky to put yourself out in the world if you are being ruled by a Fear/Paralysis Reflex…hence my being attracted to the MKMMA programme!! Now, I know that at 64 years of age, I may find that the FPR resurfaces on occasion – yet doing my "work" has allowed peace and calm to become part of my life. This was something I've spent almost 65 years attempting to find.
What I now see clearly, is that my "niche market" is very specific – I serve people whose lives have been or are still affected by the Fear / Paralysis Reflex. Simple. One niche. Maybe a few different marketing campaigns down the road – yet it's a clear area of focus for my business. That's a huge relief, as it's been a stumbling block in every business training I've ever taken!!! Thank goodness for our DMP's. That gave me so much to work with. And today's "ahah" has created a deeper understanding of how I choose to move forward in my work and in my life from now on.
And, finally, since we know the Law of Attraction is also the Law of Love, I would like to share with you the fact that, although I had never bonded with my natural mother (indeed I told her to leave my life when I was 9 years old), it was while I was teaching one of my classes on Integrating Childhood Reflexes (not the name of a modality) that I spontaneously, and for the first time in my life, felt a surge of love for my mother! And along with that came an understanding of how stressful her life must have been for her to have attempted to gas herself.
What an insight! What a gift! What a miracle that I obviously chose to put in sufficient effort as an embryo in order to "…gain permanent strength exactly to the extent of the effort required to overcome difficulties" and so be able to extend the miracle of my birth beyond today … to my Purpose.
Mahalo, from the bottom of my heart, to all of you who are part of this wondrous MKMMA journey!

MueLu: Designing a New Multigrid Solver for the Trilinos Project
SESSION: Research Poster Reception
EVENT TYPE: Poster
AUTHOR(S):Jérémie Gaidamour, Jonathan J. Hu, Christopher M. Siefert, Ray S. Tuminaro
ROOM:Main Lobby
ABSTRACT:Smoothed Aggregation (SA) multigrid is a widely used algorithm
for the scalable solution of linear systems that are at the heart of many
DOE parallel scientific computations. However, SA's cost grows
unacceptably for problems involving multiple physics and large number of
near-kernel components. This issue becomes more pronounced for stretched meshes
large material variation, and higher dimensionality.
To address SA's shortcomings, we have developed a new algorithm
that allows explicit control of the grid transfer operators' sparsity patterns.
This ensures low cost while tailoring performance for anisotropic problems. A
key to the new algorithm is keeping good convergence by minimizing energies
of grid transfer operators while capturing important near-kernel components.
This algorithm is the basis of a new parallel multigrid solver in
the Trilinos project. The solver will leverage the modern Trilinos software
stack that abstracts the notion of a compute node in order to
harness multi-core CPUs and GPUs.

The Oklahoman
STILLWATER (TNS) — Midway through the first half of Wednesday night's basketball game at Gallagher-Iba Arena, Oklahoma State's student section erupted, having learned that inclement weather in Stillwater had canceled Thursday's classes. It was by far the loudest the arena got before halftime.
An announcement came again after the game as those fans came off Eddie Sutton Court, having stormed in celebration of OSU's 79-71 upset win over sixth-ranked Texas Tech. Icy roads and gray skies lightened Wednesday's crowd, with the actual attendance possibly half that of the announced 7,092. The Cowboys gave those willing to brave the weather plenty of reasons to get excited.
For OSU (16-12 overall, 6-9 Big 12), the victory ended a three-game home losing streak and was "a reflection of us getting back to our identity," coach Mike Boynton said.
Kendall Smith was OSU's greatest threat early, making four of his first five shots. He sparked the Cowboys' 14 consecutive points with a 3-pointer and finished with 21. Waters, who scored a career-high 18, and Jeffrey Carroll, who added 14, each alternated shots as OSU turned a two-point deficit into a lead of a dozen.
WSU 93, Tulane 86
WICHITA, Kan. — Down one of its top scoring options, No. 13 Wichita State had to rely on others to defeat Tulane, 93-86, on Wednesday.
Shaquille Morris tied his career high of 24 points and grabbed a team-high seven rebounds, as WSU improved to 22-5 and 12-3 in the American Athletic Conference without the services of leading scorer Landry Shamet, who sat out due to flu-like symptons. Tulane (13-14, 4-11) lost for the eighth time in its last nine games.
Senior Conner Frankamp was at his best when it mattered most, scoring 11 of his career-high 18 points in the second half to go along with a season-high three steals. Markis McDuffie also delivered his best performance of the season, scoring 15 points off the bench.
on 6-of-10 shooting.
But it was the free-throw shooting of little-used guard C.J. Keyser that secured the win for WSU, as the sophomore made four straight free throws in the final minute to halt Tulane's attempt at a late comeback. Keyser scored a career-high 11 points, including a perfect 7-for-7 performance from the foul line.
The hot shooting of Tulane's Melvin Frazier (22 points, all in the second half) brought the Green Wave back into the game, as his back-to-back 3s cut WSU's lead to 90-86 with 39 seconds to play. Keyser's pair of free throws all but secured the game when Tulane missed its next three.
WSU methodically separated itself in the first half to build a 16-point halftime advantage, then unenthusiastic play in the second half allowed Tulane to draw within five points multiple times.
When Tulane cut WSU's lead to 60-55 with 10:42 remaining, the Shockers responded with a 5-0 spurt with an Austin Reaves' 3-pointer and two Darral Willis free throws. Tulane responded with back-to-back baskets to trim it to six, then Frankamp pulled up for a 3 and Willis scored a put-back to extend the lead to 11.
Tulane's next rally, a 6-0 spurt, cut WSU's lead to 75-71 with six minutes remaining. But WSU came up with the winning plays from McDuffie and Frankamp down the stretch.
McDuffie canned a corner 3 to push WSU's lead to 78-71, then Frankamp drained a floater in the lane for an 80-74 lead with 3:45 to play. On the next possession, Frankamp jumped the passing lane for his third steal and made two free throws for an 82-74 lead after being fouled on the attempted layup. After Tulane scored, Frankamp answered back with another isolation basket.
It took WSU more than 12 minutes to separate itself in the first half, as it used a 6-0 run with a three-point play by Morris and a McDuffie 3-pointer to extend its lead to 28-19 with 6:42 left.
A scoring burst from Keyser highlight a 13-5 run over the final 3:10 of the first half, as WSU built a 47-31 halftime lead. Keyser scored first on an athletic foray to the rim and a finish through contact for a three-point play, then had another driving layup during the run.
The silver lining of Shamet's absence was the extend minutes and opportunities it provided guards Samajae Haynes-Jones and Keyser, who had both not played in WSU's previous two games.
Keyser took advantage of the opportunity the most, although Haynes-Jones did start strong by making his first 3-pointer and scoring on a fadeaway jump shot.
