WriteBoston Executive
Director Betty Southwick in the organization's Roxbury office. On March
29, WriteBoston celebrated 10 years of helping Boston students improve
writing skills. (Sandra Larson photo) |
Inside Boston's English High School in late March, it's a typical Tuesday at the writing center — a nonstop buzz of activity. Students and volunteer tutors come and go, calling out greetings or sitting down at tables strewn with papers and reference books to work through writing problems.
After checking in with writing center Coordinator Sage Marsters, tutors stay to work with walk-in students or fan out to help in classrooms.
Tutor Colleen Fullin, 25, a graduate student at Emerson College, sits at the large center table with a sophomore student, helping her develop an essay analyzing President Truman's decision to drop the atomic bomb. Later on, a pair of tutors work with three classmates on an assignment to compare the tactics of abolitionist John Brown with other anti-slavery initiatives of his time.
The writing center is a program of WriteBoston, a citywide initiative launched in 2002 to improve writing skills in Boston's public schools. WriteBoston has three main components: writing centers offer tutoring to students in and outside their classrooms; the writing coach program provides coaches to help teachers make their writing assignments more effective; and Teens in Print (TiP), a collaboration with the Boston Globe, brings students together from all over Boston to learn journalism and publish a teen-written newspaper.
Marsters, a youthful 40-year-old with an intense blue-eyed gaze, is a published writer and former teacher. She holds master's degrees in both education and creative writing. Many of the 14 tutors she manages are graduate students; others are working or retired professionals.
"The tutors are not editors so much as writing mentors," Marsters says. "Rather than saying this is right, this is wrong, and doing the 'red pen' thing, we are saying, 'What stands out to you?' "
Not being judged and graded is a new thing for the students, she says, but they soon adapt.
"It's really neat to watch," she continues, her zeal for the work evident. "The first time, they're saying, 'You tell me. You're the tutor.' But after a few times they get used to it; it's a way of respecting them as the learner, the writer. They do have things to say about their writing."
Senior Aboubacar Konate drops by the writing center. He doesn't need much help now, as graduation day approaches. But the writing center tutors gave him crucial guidance when he was working on college application essays last fall, he says.
Now the 20-year-old, who spoke no English when he arrived in the United States from Guinea in 2009, is receiving college acceptance letters. He's considering Wentworth and University of New Hampshire (UNH), and plans to study business or engineering.
"That's great! We need to talk," Marsters says to Konate upon hearing about UNH. Not only did Marsters attend UNH, she tells him, but her father is a journalism professor there. She promises to introduce them.
English High School was one of 12 underperforming Boston schools designated in 2009 as "turnaround schools" targeted for intensive attention and resources to accelerate the pace of improvement. Since then, the school has instituted tougher writing standards. Its literacy focus has expanded across all subjects; it's not unusual for WriteBoston tutors to help students writing for science or geometry classes as well as English or history.
Headmaster Sito Narcisse, who arrived from Pittsburgh to take the reins at English in 2009, said WriteBoston has had an "unbelievable impact" on the school in its time of transition.
"The teachers have been excited," he said by telephone, "especially those who teach science and math. They didn't used to think they would teach writing. So that's been huge. And even with ELA (English Language Arts) teachers, it's had a huge impact."
Students, too, have noticeably come around, Narcisse said, even after initially "freaking out" over the new writing standards. "When they've been stuck, and have gone into the (writing center) to work with the tutors, students have loved it. Only some of them say it directly — but it's helped all kids."
Across town later that same Tuesday, TiP Coordinator Ric Kahn greets the first trickle of hungry and talkative young people arriving at the Boston Globe headquarters to work on the next issue of their newspaper.
Kahn, a former Globe and Boston Phoenix reporter, greets each teen with warmth and some sort of affectionate ribbing. Deadline is nearing, and he needs to remind them to get their stories in ASAP — but he mostly takes a low-key approach.
During the two hours the teens are gathered in this room, they do plenty of talking, checking Facebook and e-mail, eating (the Globe provides a big tray of sandwiches each week) and talking some more. Eventually, they ask questions about their stories-in-progress. All of that is okay with Kahn, who has been teaching crews of "TiP-sters" for the past 3 years.
"It's not school," Kahn said. "It's relaxed. As long as they hand me a story, I don't care when they do the work."
He plays leader and guide more than editor.
"They have the passion; I teach them to do it in journalistic form and to be ethical about it," he said. He enforces basic rules: Stories should quote three sources, by name; interviews are done face-to-face or by phone, not by e-mail or text message; fact-checking is a must. The TiP newsroom is open three afternoons a week; to be considered staff writers, the teens have to show up for two of those days.
Ralph Karnuah, 16, a Brighton High School sophomore from Dorchester, has published one story so far. He reported on how teens view "toughness" in today's society.
"I was kind of happy — no, really happy," he said. "My friends didn't believe I had a published article. Then they said, 'cool.' And my father was impressed."
Alicia Perez, a senior at John D. O'Bryant High School, aspires to be a political journalist. She has taken advantage of several programs WriteBoston offers, including the Caroline Knapp Journalism Intern Program and a partnership with the New England Center for Investigative Reporting at Boston University. Perez, 18, was part of a reporting team that investigated local pharmacies' misinformation about the "Plan B" contraceptive for TiP's March/April issue.
Betty Southwick has been WriteBoston's director since its inception. In her office in Roxbury's Dudley Square in early April, she was still feeling the exhilaration of a March 29 gala commemorating WriteBoston's 10th anniversary.
"Ten years is a big one," she said. The program has served 23 schools, more than 250 teachers, and some 4,500 students. At one school WriteBoston aided, she said, the passing rate on the MCAS English portion rose in three years to 64 percent from 16 percent.
"We have a real model," she continued. "So now what? Where do we go from here?"
Southwick, parent of two grown children who attended Boston public schools, exudes warmth and business-like competence. Her manner reflects her years as a teacher and guidance counselor, followed by several stints managing non-profit and for-profit businesses. In those latter roles, she was an expert at growing a venture from nothing to a thriving and sustainable operation, she said.
"You grow gradually, create a quality product, and then add to it," she said.
Headmaster Narcisse recalls finding out about WriteBoston when he was new at English High.
"I was looking for what programs in this city work. I had just arrived in Boston, and someone at another school connected me with Betty Southwick. She and her team really 'get' urban schools — the type of work and the complexity of it."
Things really seem to be looking up at English, and Narcisse is upbeat.
"We're very confident that by the time our children leave English High School, they will be able to write essays at the college level," he said. "We knew for a while that we had gaps we had to fill. WriteBoston has helped us accelerate that process. We are lucky to have this partnership.

"Write Boston" was already at English High when Sito arrived. It cost $50,000. out of school funds for the 2011-2012 school year. |

In keeping with Steve Jobs' vision of transforming education, Apple has expanded its iTunes U so that professors can now offer entire courses, not just lectures.
So far, though, not many colleges and universities are rushing to drop the platforms they already use for online learning and adopt the new application from the technology heavyweight.
Apple bills the expanded iTunes U as "an entire course in one app," with the capacity to accommodate lectures, assignments, books, quizzes and syllabi. Although the application is free, the courses can be accessed only on an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, Apple products whose prices may be unaffordable for college students with limited financial resources.
Faced with a public controversy over its limited faculty diversity, Emerson College has responded with a spate of hirings and promotions of minorities, capped by the installation of its first African American president, M. Lee Pelton.
Other colleges and universities, confronted with similar criticism, have ultimately achieved little change in their faculty ranks. But Emerson broke from that pattern, first by naming an expert panel to conduct an external review and make a public report on its findings.
With print newspapers continuing to fall by the wayside, one group of young Bostonians still sees the importance of getting out the written word to the masses.
The Boston Public Health Commission (BPHC) teamed up last year with WriteBoston, a citywide initiative to improve writing proficiency among city youth on the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) tests, to begin publishing Good News, a newspaper written by and for Boston teens about their lives.

Philip Boulding
studied classical violin at the age of six. Switching to the guitar, at the age of twelve,
became proficient at building his own stringed instruments. After listening to a hammered dulcimer record,
was inspired to build and learn to play his own hammered dulcimer. Shortly after moving to Seattle in 1974, Boulding was introduced to the Celtic harp. Traveling to Ireland and Scotland, he acquired a firm understanding of the harp. Boulding has enhanced his musical skills through private study in classical and jazz harp, the Russian cymbalom and the West African kora as well as classes at the Boston Conservatory and Ethno-Musicology classes at the University of Washington.
Pam Boulding
studied piano at the age of four, although, she balanced her love of music with an appreciation of art. She earned an undergraduate degree in painting, sculpture and art history from Pitzer College in southern California. Following her graduation,
taught art and music at West Coast colleges and founded a summer art school for children in Maine, where she had spent her summers as a youngster. After hearing a hammered dulcimer, she enrolled in a class to study the instrument. The experience proved pivotal as

I had breakfast here twice as I was staying at the harbour lights. The food was average quality for the price. The view was amazing, I wasn't impressed by the staff on the second visit.

We ate here a couple of times for breakfast, staff were so nice and remembered the fact I didn't like pawpaw in my fruit for breakfast - became a bit of a laugh for them.Try the muesli with yoghurt - it was yummy - also my husband had the scrambled eggs - great, fast service, can be quite busy in...

Parts of the Tireragan coast are so exposed to the Atlantic weather than very little vegetation can ever grow, but as soon as some shelter from the worst is available so does plant and animal life prosper. There are so many gullies, inlets, outcrops and crags that there is also plenty of shelter and the sight of a rowan tree growing out of a small crack in a granite cliff is an indication of nature's tenacity.
Of course the coast harbours a huge amount of sea life from seaweed and kelp to molluscs and fish and the mammals such as seals and otters that feed on them.

SSRS 2008 - Bypassing The Out Of Memory System Exception problem when running large reports?
Monday, January 28, 2013 4:53 PM
I am running large SSRS reports in a local mode via the VS 2010 ASP.NET Report Control AND SSRS 2008 reports via the Report Server.
These reports have thousands of pages and thousands upon thousands of records.
Can anyone offer me any advice on how to bypass this issue in both scenarios ? I was under the impression this iteration of SSRS would eliminate the memory issues that plagued earlier SSRS versions.

Hi Paul,
To make report performance, please refer to the following suggestions:
Suggestion 1: Check the configuration settings for memory in the RSreportserver.config file. By default, the WorkingSetMaximum setting doesn't appear in the RSReportServer.config file. If it has been change, remove it or change its value to be a larger integer value. For more information, please see: Configuring Available Memory for Report Server Applications
Suggestion 2: Redesign the report. To do this, please refer to the following methods.
- Return less data in the report queries.
- Use a better restriction on the WHERE clause of the report queries.
- Move complex aggregations to the data source.
- Include fewer data regions or controls in the report.
- Use a drillthrough report to display details.
- Add page breaks where it makes sense.
- Avoid complex expressions in the Page Header or Footer which force all pages to be processed
- You may receive the "System.OutOfMemoryException" error message when you use SQL Server Reporting Services
- Troubleshooting Reports: Report Performance
Hope this helps.

Fishing for your dinner would be great if there weren't the matter of bait, Potomac pollution, and endless waiting for something to bite.
Make things easier by getting your fresh fish at Tackle Box, the newly opened New England-themed eatery in Georgetown.
The casual, self-proclaimed shore shack offers a rotating selection of fresh fish available wood grilled or crispy fried. Wooden picnic tables mean that you'll have plenty of room for tasty sides like grilled asparagus and mac and cheese.
You can also take the good stuff home with the Box's signature lobster boil pots. Available for takeout or delivery, the boil includes Maine lobster, mussels, clams, chorizo sausage, grilled onions, potatoes, and the chef's blend of spices.
Looks like you've finally found the reel thing.

Jun 16, 2011 07:04 EDT Boston Bruins on the 16th of June won the seventh and final game of the match series with 4-0. Bauer athlete Brad Merchant scored two goals using a Bauer stick featuring TeXtreme®, among others the fourth and final goal.
Press Release
Composite hockey stick better than ever aided by TeXtreme®
Oct 27, 2011 03:29 EDTNew BAUER Vapor APX composite ice hockey stick features TeXtreme® Spread Tow carbon fabrics and is a continuation on the prosperous usage of TeXtreme® in previous versions of BAUER hockey sticks.
The BAUER Vapor APX is the premier stick in the BAUER Vapor stick line. Bauer Hockey has taken the foundation of the Vapor X:60 hockey stick and combined it with the exceptional puck feel of the TotalONE hockey stick; creating the company's most technical advanced hockey stick to date.
BAUER uses TeXtreme® Spread Tow Fabrics to reduce weight, improve the mechanical performance and for the superior surface smoothness that reduces the need for finishing drastically, compared to a conventional fabric.
"By using TeXtreme®, BAUER has benefitted from the standard weight savings and mechanical improvements. At the same time, we have found the surface finish to be noticeably better with TeXtreme® than with conventional 3K weaves," said Adam Gans, Director of Product Development for sticks at BAUER Hockey Inc. "In the APX stick TeXtreme® has contributed to the lighter blade and to the torsional stiffness that prevents blade deflection when shooting, which increases accuracy and improves balance".
Andreas Martsman, VP Business Development of Oxeon, says: "During the years of our cooperation with BAUER they have been gaining market share in the premium ice hockey sticks segment. We are happy for whatever contribution TeXtreme® has had on their success and this illuminates what we want for TeXtreme®, to be a strategic partner and to aid in giving our customers this kind of success on their respective markets".
The benefits from TeXtreme® come from the Spread Tow structure that makes it possible to achieve thinner laminates and that have straighter fibers with reduced crimp which optimize and strengthen the composite. The lesser crimp reduce amount of excess plastic and hence minimizing weight.
The BAUER Vapor APX stick is currently available at retail locations throughout the world.

With half the country seemingly commited to the status quo, that is "greed is good, I'm worried about the future but not planning for it" they have effectively obstructed government ability for positive change. The only real way to limit too big to fail syndrome is for us, as individuals, to stop patronizing these gargantuan conglomerates whenever possible. Let the "born again foursome" justify their outrageous compensation when we all move our money to the excellent regional banks and credit unions we have on LI. When there's a choice, give your business to the small business owner, who still values you as a customer, over Corporate America. And resist Wall St investing…let the uber-rich steal from each other…not us!
You nailed it and provided some good laughs to boot.
If James Madison were alive today, he would agree with you that people are dangerously creative, especially when it comes to money and power. That was his central preoccupation as he helped to craft our constitution – how to keep the government from falling victim to the too-smart people. I don't think, however, that in 1787 he could imagine financial institutions so powerful they could co-opt the government.

The Landor, Stockwell
FancyaPint?'s review...
Just what you want when wandering the wastelands where Brixton and Clapham merge. Sadly, the much-needed refurb has taken place with the result that the knicknacks have gone, replaced by a more gastro-green interior. It's still got the theatre upstairs with regular comedy nights, there's still a good range of drinks, including decent real ales, and a genial atmosphere. The old Truman, Hanbury and Buxton brewery name on the outside has gone, replaced by a more muted grey colour scheme, but classy nonetheless. Be sure to give a look to the rather large beer garden: it's a welcoming spot, with a mural and an overgrown street lamp to keep you company as well as the addition of a pool table. If that wasn't enough Sunday nights have an intelligent-looking pub quiz too. Hard to fault really. So we won't.
12 Sep 2010
I have been visiting this pub for years, it is now under new ownership, recently refurbished. This pub has improved... a lot. Very friendly staff in place of the previous surly, unhelpful bunch. The beer is kept well and a good selction of other drinks avaliable. The food is also good and reasonably priced. Large beer garden some under cover with outside tvs and pool table. I would suggest if you are in Clapham North to bypass the more obvious places, walk 1 minute down Landor Road, visit this bar and make your own mind up.

Kiefer Sutherland: I should have Axed her out
Star talks about lost love for deodorant ad
KIEFER Sutherland sends up his hardman image in this quirky commercial for deodorant Axe.
The star, who plays tough guy Jack Bauer in hit TV show 24, provides the voiceover for an ad about a young man scared to approach the girl he is in love with.
He tells the story of how as a young man he was head over heels for a girl called Susan Glenn.
And in dream-like scenes, the beauty rises into the air as Kiefer tells the audience: "If she approached, Susan Glenn didn't walk - she floated."
But the intimidated fella goes on: "And so Susan Glenn and I, were never a thing."
And as the scene switches to Kiefer as a middle-aged man, he adds: "If I could do it again, I'd do it differently."

Doctors diagnose Lyme disease based on the patient's symptoms (signs of illness), history, and blood test results. There are three stages of Lyme disease: early, early disseminated, and late Lyme disease.
Symptoms—First Stage
The first stage of Lyme disease is called early Lyme disease. Early Lyme disease usually causes one or more of the following symptoms that occur days to weeks after infection:
Erythema migrans |
Erythema migrans (see picture), the skin rash associated with Lyme disease, occurs as a circular rash that continues to grow. It may appear anywhere from 1 day to 1 month after the infected tick's bite, but it usually appears in about 7 days. The center of the rash may clear as it grows, giving it the appearance of a bull's-eye. The rash may be warm, but it is usually not painful. Sometimes, the rash includes many red patches that appear in different shapes and sizes around the body. The erythema migrans type of skin rash is different from a rash that appears as an allergic reaction to a tick or insect bite. Such reactions to a bite usually appear as a redness within hours to 1 day after a bite, do not grow, and disappear within a day or two. Erythema migrans does not occur in some patients with Lyme disease. In patients who do not get the rash, the first sign of bacterial infection can be symptoms of second- or third-stage Lyme disease.
Symptoms—Second Stage
The second stage of Lyme disease is known as early disseminated Lyme disease, which means that the infection of bacteria is beginning to spread and is affecting certain body functions. This stage occurs weeks to months after the bite of an infected tick. Problems can include:
- Numbness and pain in arms or legs
- Paralysis of facial muscles (usually on one side of the face)
- Meningitis—fever, stiff neck, and severe headaches
- Abnormal heart beat (rare)
Symptoms—Third Stage
The third stage of Lyme disease is called late (or chronic) Lyme disease. This stage can occur weeks, months, or even years after infection in patients who either never received antibiotic treatment for early Lyme disease or whose treatment did not kill all of the bacteria that cause Lyme disease. Patients with late Lyme disease may get:
- Chronic Lyme arthritis—brief bouts of pain and swelling usually occurring in one or more of the large joints, especially the knees
- Nervous system problems, including memory loss and difficulty concentrating
- Chronic pain in muscles and/or unrestful sleep
From left to right: adult female, adult male, nymph, larvae (scale in cm) |
A history of a known tick bite will help the doctor to know if Lyme disease caused the current symptoms. However, many people with Lyme disease do not remember being bitten by a tick. Deer ticks (picture) and western black-legged ticks are tiny and often go unnoticed. For example, nymphal deer ticks, the most common transmitters of Lyme disease, are often about 2mm, or the size of this dot ().
Blood Tests
Blood tests, also known as Lyme titers, cannot diagnose Lyme disease alone, but they are used to confirm a diagnosis. The most common blood test ordered for Lyme disease is the ELISA, with the western blot used as a follow-up test. The ELISA tests for antibodies, the body's defense system against infections; it does not test for the bacteria itself. These anti-Borrelia burgdorferi antibodies may take up to 2 to 6 weeks after infection to appear in the blood. Therefore, a blood test immediately following a tick bite will not be able to determine whether or not a person has been infected since not enough time has passed for antibodies to develop.
Other bacterial infections and diseases may cause an ELISA to be positive when, in fact, the patient does not have Lyme disease. Therefore, the Western Blot, a more accurate test that can be used 6 to 12 weeks after infection, is recommended to confirm all positive or equivocal ELISA results. However, if symptoms and history strongly suggest Lyme disease, a doctor may begin treatment without blood test confirmation. Note that frequent testing without symptoms that suggest infection, even in endemic areas, increases the chance of a test result being positive when a person is not actually infected with Lyme disease.

Cardinals Hall of Famer Stan Musial dead at 92
January 19, 2013 at 4:12 PM by AHN · Leave a Comment
St. Louis, MO, United States (NewsBahn) – St. Louis Cardinals legend Stan Musial died Saturday at the age of 92.
He reportedly died surrounded by family in Ladue, just outside the city where he became a beloved figure as a seven-time batting champ and three-time MVP.
Musial certainly had the respect of his fellow ballplayers, who were saddened by the classy man's death.
"It is a very sad day for me," Willie Mays told ESPN's Willie Weinbaum of Outside The Lines at the Baseball Writers' Association of America dinner in New York. "I knew Stan very well. He used to take care of me at All-Star games, 24 of them. He was a true gentleman who understood the race thing and did all he could. Again, a true gentleman on and off the field — I never heard anybody say a bad word about him, ever."
MLB Commissioner Allan H. "Bud" Selig offered his condolences via a statement in a day which the sport also lost ffamed ex-Orioles manager Earl Weaver, as well.
"Major League Baseball has lost one of its true legends in Stan Musial, a Hall of Famer in every sense and a man who led a great American life. He was the heart and soul of the historic St. Louis Cardinals franchise for generations, and he served his country during World War II. A recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2011, Stan's life embodies baseball's unparalleled history and why this game is the national pastime.
"As remarkable as 'Stan the Man' was on the field, he was a true gentleman in life. All of Major League Baseball mourns his passing, and we extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends, admirers and all the fans of the Cardinals."
Musial was a remarkable hitter who still ranks second in MLB history in total bases (6,134), third in doubles (725), fourth in hits (3,630), sixth in RBIs (1,951) and ninth in runs (1,949) despite playing his final game in 1963.

Location: Eastern Regional Research Center
Technical Abstract: Nisin is a naturally occurring antimicrobial polypeptide, and is popularly used in foods and food packaging industries. Nisin is deactivated at temperatures higher than 120 deg C, and therefore can not be directly incorporated into poly(L-lactic acid) (PLA), a biomass-derived biodegradable polymer, by co-extrusion, because PLA melts at temperatures around 160 deg C. However, PLA can remain in a melt state at temperatures below the Tm in the presence of lactic acid or other plasticizers. In the present study, PLA was co-extruded with lactic acid, or lactide, or glycerol triacetate at 160 deg C. After the PLA was melted, the temperature of the barrels was reduced to 120 deg C, and then Nisaplin®, the commercial formulation of nisin, was added and the extrusion was continued. The resultant extrudates possess the capability to suppress the growth of the pathogenic bacterial L. monocytogenes, demonstrating a significant antimicrobial activity. The present study provides a simple method to produce PLA-based, antimicrobial membranes. The method can also be used for the co-extrusion of other heat-sensitive substances and thermoplastics with high melting temperature.

KIRKSVILLE, MO -- 1500 cowboys and farmers filled the Kirksville Middle School at the 2008 Missouri Livestock Symposium. The 8th annual Symposium featured booths and presentations from agriculture experts around the nation. Organizers tell KTVO the Symposium offers something for everyone.
"It's a producer targeted audience. Horse producers, beef cattle producers, sheep, meat goat producers, we have a section on stock dogs that we do, but then on top of that we have some really good people that are on the cutting edge of renewable resources," said Regional Livestock Specialist.
The event also featured live animal exhibits, and a classic tractor contest. The two day event wrapped up Saturday night with a concert by country music star John Anderson. The planning committee says they already have some things planned for next year's Livestock Symposium.

Landscape painting
Landscape painting depicts the physical world that surrounds us and includes
features such as mountains, valleys, vegetation, and bodies of water. The sky is
another important element shaping the mood of landscape paintings. Landscape art
ranges from highly detailed and realistic to impressionistic, romantic and
idealized. While oil landscape painting predominates, acrylic, and even mixed
media are common mediums. One can trace early representations of landscape to
the Minoan period. In many ancient cultures landscape frescoes and seccoes
served as an extension of nature. Dutch painters of the sixteenth and seventeeth
centuries that landscape painting became established as an independent genre.
Partially inspired by Transcendentalism and the Naturalist movement, landscape
painting became an even more important art form in the 1800s. The impact
landscape painting had during this time period was so powerful it required
people "to assume that the appreciation of natural beauty and the painting of
landscape is a normal and enduring part of our spiritual activity." Contemporary
landscapes often feature the human hand; buildings, roads, fences. One of the
popular trends in contemporary landscape painting is plein air painting, said to
convey nature in a fuller way than studio painting.

Live Music in the Treehouse at Artemisia
by FreeWee on Jul.12, 2010, under Music Events
The residents of Artemisia are happy to present live music two nights a week:
- Saturdays at 7:00 PM: MrMulti "Mic" Writer (pajamas optional)
- Sundays at 6:00 PM: Shannon Oherlihy
MrMulti "Mic" Writer writes thoughtful, reflective lyrics, adding smooth melodies with flowing harmony. His music is always easy on the ears with lyrics that can be probing, personal and psychological, yet written so that we can use the symbolism and find the message within. The songs are about relationships, love, life, death, the future and the past. Great covers and astoundingly good originals with guitar and keyboard.
Shannon Oherlihy's voice is pure feeling, soft and sensual with tones resonating from a calming celtic peace. Her songs are soul-baring testimonies to love, loss and living one day at a time. Inspired by the music of John Denver, Gordon Lightfoot, Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell, Judy Collins and Bob Dylan, Shannon found her musical roots in contemporary folk and the Treehouse is the perfect place for an intimate house concert with this beautiful artist.
Whirli Placebo is an amazing new singer-songwriter in SL who is really making an impression. He has been called eclectic, strange, neurotic… Be among the first to discover this artist who can be melancholy, sentimental, upbeat, downbeat, or just beat… Folk-rock-blues influenced originals and covers with a Whirli twist.
NOTICE: The Treehouse at Artemisia is looking for a manager! It's a pretty simple job, really. We book acts and get the word out. What we really need is someone to handle the publicity and to play host at the events. We have two acts regularly booked every week. We don't particularly need more unless you want to manage it. The Treehouse would basically be your space to book. This is not a paid position, but you can keep the venue tips for events you host. IM FreeWee Ling for info, or email email@example.com.
Mic is back!
by FreeWee on Oct.31, 2008, under Music Events, Treehouse
We all had such a fine time in the Treehouse at Artemisia last Friday, we decided to do it again. And again maybe! Mic loves the intimate Treehouse venue, with lots of snuggly places and romantic dances and the secret box of chocolates.. mmmmmm.. What a fine way to wind down after a busy week.
Artemisia is about living with art. The residents of Artemisia support the galleries and recreational areas and the Treehouse club in order to live in a vital, creative place. We invite you to enjoy a great evening of fun and fine music and to explore the wonders of our island. Maybe you'll want to live here too!
Live Music Returns to Artemisia!
by FreeWee on Oct.21, 2008, under Music Events, Treehouse
We have had some of the top performers in SL in the Treehouse Club on Artemisia. Freestar Tammas, Montian Gilruth, Harper Messmer, Matthew Perreault, and others. But the club has been pretty quiet the last few months as we have concentrated on getting the Galerie de la Vie on solid footing. I was thinking about having a regular DJ night in the Treehouse and I still might. But my friend Brigette Auer managed to hook me up with something even better!
MrMulti "Mic" Writer will grace our circle on Friday night at 7 PM SLT.
Mic is the Artist-In-Residence at Second Life's Tranquil Cafe. His music is quintessentially smooth. No jarring mosh pits here, but rather a fine way to chill after a hectic work week. Mic plays and sings the greats — Steely Dan, Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, James Taylor, Crosby, Stills & Nash, The Beatles , and newer ones too, like Switchfoot, Matchbox 20, the Weepies — all play backup inspiration to Mic's thoughtful, reflective originals with intelligent lyrics and flowing harmonies. Whether you're feeling especially romantic or just need to get off the treadmill and discover the joy of great music, come on up to the Treehouse. Check out some of Mic's great tunes on his MySpace site. Don't forget to come early or stay late and explore Artemisia. We have simply scads of cool stuff to see and do!

Prime Minister Costas Karamanlis on Sunday congratulated the German EU presidency for its high-profile efforts towards European integration, in statements ahead of a special summit session of the EU 27 member-states' heads of state and government, where the Declaration of Berlin was formally adopted during a ceremony marking the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Community's founding Treaty of Rome. Karamanlis described the text of the Declaration of Berlin as "mature and balanced", expressing optimism on the prospects of the European Union and the reforms still outstanding. Earlier in the day, Karamanlis had a private meeting with European Commission president Jose Manuel Barroso, while on Saturday night, he attended a dinner hosted by German President of the Republic Horst Koehler for the EU leaders, after which he visited the renowned Pergamon Museum, where he was given a tour of an exhibition of Byzantine icons from the Velimezis Collection, entitled "The Splendour of Heaven", organised in cooperation with Athens' Benaki Museum and the Greek Foundation of Culture. Karamanlis and his entourage are due to return to Athens shortly after a luncheon hosted by German Chancellor Angela Merkel, during which the EU leaders will bid farewell to French President Jacques Chirac, given that this was his last participation in an EU summit as he has announced that he will not be standing for office in the imminent presidential elections in France. The signing of the Declaration of Berlin -- which, although just short of three pages long, aspires to opening up a new chapter for the prospects of the venture called the European Union, and chiefly to help overcome the alienation between the existing structure and the citizens of the member states -- coincides with the 186th anniversary of Greek Independence Day, celebrating the start of the Greek revolution against tour Ottoman rule on March 25, 1821.
Karamanlis statement "Today is a double celebration for Hellenism. Together with the Annunciation of the Virgin, we also have the anniversary of the 1821 great struggle of the Greeks for freedom and national dignity. It is also, however, a very special day for Europe, too. For all of us who believe in the European Idea and the vision of European integration, this anniversary has a distinct symbolic meaning. In this half century, Europe, the European Union, has proved historically to be the most successful model of peace, cooperation and prosperity. Cooperation and consensus have taken the place of war as a method of resolving differences. The strength and size (of the member countries) is not so significant as the participation and devotion to the European principles and values, and, naturally, we must not forget that Europe is a protagonist in adopting and advancing pioneering policies directly concerning the citizens on crucial issues such as unemployment, education and climate change. "I wish to congratulate the German presidency on the great effort it has made and for the Declaration of Berlin, which is a mature and balanced text, which is primarily addressed to the European citizens. It is true, and we all know, that the European Union today finds itself at a critical juncture in time, at a crucial turning point. It is equally a fact that, many times in the past as well, Europe had difficulties which it confronted and succes-sfully overcame. I want to believe, and I do believe that Europe has the strength and the political volition to move ahead with determination in the future".PM calls for greater determination in promotion of European integrationPrime Minister Costas Karamanlis on Saturday called for greater determination to be displayed in promoting European integration and the handling of future problems.Speaking shortly before a meeting of European Peoples Party (EPP) leaders in the German capital, Karamanlis said "the 50 years from the signing of the Treaty of Rome is a great European achievement. During this half a century, we have succeeded in making war inconceivable and mapping out together a course of peace, cooperation, growth and prosperity."Referring to the EPP, the prime minister said "for the European Peoples Party, today is a celebration even more so. And this is so because the European concept, the promotion of European integration are great fundamental priorities that were served with consistency by leading personalities of our political family."

Title: | Antiferromagnetism, ferromagnetism and magnetic phase separation in Bi₂Sr₂O₆â[delta] |
Author: | Thomas, Kennedy Jessica, 1975- |
Other Contributors: | Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dept. of Physics. |
Advisor: | Marc A. Kastner. |
Department: | Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dept. of Physics. |
Publisher: | Massachusetts Institute of Technology |
Issue Date: | 2003 |
Abstract: |
Neutron scattering, magnetization and transport measurements were performed on single crystals of Bi2Sr2CoO6+[delta] to study the evolution of the magnetic properties as a function of the oxygen content . The oxygen content was varied by annealing single crystals in either a reducing or oxidizing environment to obtain an experimental range of 0.25 =/< [delta] =/< 0.5 and a corresponding average Co valence between +2.5 and +3. We show that the as-grown samples, which are oxygen rich ([delta approximately] 0.5) and therefore contain mostly Co3+ ions, enter an antiferromagnetic (AF) phase with a Neel temperature - 250 K. On the other hand, annealing as-grown crystals in vacuum to reach [delta approx.] 0.25 destroys the AF phase; these samples exhibit predominantly ferromagnetic (FM) behavior with Tc [approx.] 100 K. At intermediate doping, 0.25 < [delta] < 0.5, we find evidence for co-existence of FM and AF domains, which are characteristic of the [delta] = 0.25 and [delta] = 0.5 phases, respectively. The signature of the co-existence is the presence of simultaneous FM and AF magnetic Bragg peaks in the neutron diffraction pattern. Polarized neutron scattering measurements confirm that the FM and AF peaks do not arise from different components of a canted antiferromagnet. (cont.) The FM regions give rise to a ferromagnetic-like peak in the susceptibility at the same temperature as the spins in the AF phase order. In addition, the FM regions exert a random field in the AF phase, above a critical field Hc. We explain the field dependence of the two-phase samples with a microscopic model. We propose that the FM clusters within the AF phase are the result of regions which are rich in Co2+. Furthermore, we suggest that oxygen facilitates the formation of electronically inhomogeneous regions. |

2. | ilker | ||
\eel-KHAIR\, verb, 1. To put something off until the last possible minute. 2. To be chronically yet casually late. 3. To missplace small personal objects.
Etymology: Ilker derives from the 16th century compound verb form "to ill care" which last saw common usage in the 19th century; but now survives as a linguistic fossil in the form of a slang term in some small areas of New England and Appalachia. ref. The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood, Howard Pyle (1883): "Truly," quoth Robin, holding up his arms and looking down at himself, "I do think it be somewhat of a gay, gaudy, grasshopper dress; but it is a pretty thing for all that, and doth not ill befit the turn of my looks, albeit I wear it but for the nonce. But stay, Little John, here are two bags that I would have thee carry in thy pouch for the sake of safekeeping. I can ILL CARE for them myself beneath this motley." 1. Don't ilker that assignment, its going to take longer than you think. 2. She just, like, ilkered in to class half an hour in and accidentally took the lecturer's notes. 3. Oh dude, I totally ilkered my phone last night, I hope someone picked it up.
1. | Ilker | ||
"first man" in Turkish. Although it also describes anyone who is so friendly and likeable that he is first person you think of when compiling the guest list to your party. I'm want something fun to do tonite but have no plans... I know, I'll just call Ilker!
3. | ilker | ||
An ogre with a huge blonde jew fro, and A large quantity of P. Miler shirts. Can be blamed for anything that goes wrong in this world.
if walking down the street, stay CLEAR OF THIS MAN. " OH NO! the stock market just crashed!"
"Just blaim Ilker!" |

Steve Ley was impressed with his young team, but noted there are improvements to be made.
"Confidence is the biggest thing," he said. "We are so young and (the underclassmen) are thinking 'How am I going to do at this varsity competition?'"
Skylar Ley and Fowler both moved up one weight class for Saturday's tournament.
Steve Ley was impressed with Eremia's performance as he is only a second-year wrestler.
"We're proud of our kids," Steve Ley said.
Saginaw: Freeland finished 4-1 and had two wrestlers finish undefeated: Josh Schlak (130); Charlie Ferens (140).
"He struggled in a couple of the matches, but on the day he did pretty well," Freeland coach Mike Ritt said of Schlak, who normally wrestles at 125. "We're struggling with some injuries right now, so we're pretty thin in a couple of areas and had to move everybody around."
Freeland got wins against Onaway (72-6), Whitehall (45-22), Midland (61-9) in pool play before beating Sanford Meridian (41-33) in the third-place match.
Freeland's Bailey Case (160) got a pin in 1 minute, 35 seconds against Sanford Meridian.
"We had lost a couple of matches before that, so we really needed a win," Ritt said.
Breckenridge's Nathan Story (285) got his second pin of the year and teammate Quady Short (215) had two wins.
"Big win for him individually," Breckenridge coach Joe Maxwell said of Story. "He never had a win last year. Kind of a big deal for him and to all of us."
Junior Matt Stewart (135) had three wins.
Maxwell said the team needs to work on being more aggressive.
"They've developed a lot from last year, technically," he said. "Being confident to apply the technique they learn in practice."

International & Multicultural Programs, a part of the Center for Campus Connections, at Palm Beach Atlantic University is here to help international and multicultural students like you to deepen your connection to PBA as well as to help you share your unique culture with our community.
You may also benefit from:
Mentorship Program
It can be difficult to transition to college for any student, but PBA understands there can be additional challenges to adjusting if you are a first-year international, African American, Asian American, Hispanic or Native American student. This program connects you with a mentor — an upperclassman or a faculty or staff member who shares your interests and passions. Your mentor will help guide you as you transition to PBA, whether that's helping you overcome academic challenges, make new friends, get involved on campus, or grow in your faith.
Multicultural Clubs
PBA offers more than 30 clubs and organizations — from social, to professional to religious. Many of these are designed just for international and multicultural students, including the International Business Club and A.L.I.C. (American Latino Intercultural Coalition).
If you are an international student, the Harry D. Menges Scholarship was created for you. Named in memory of Dr. Harry Dunbaugh Menges by his family, the scholarship recognizes international students who demonstrate a strong Christian faith and high academic achievement.
Multicultural Training
If you would like to create activities for your floor, team, club or class that focuses on the multicultural experience, our training programs can help you do just that. Simply contact us if you would like to learn more about these interactive, Bible-based programs.
