Click to help support the choir, thank you!
Dear Friends,
It is with great rejoicing that the University of Notre Dame Liturgical Choir will be embarking on a choir pilgrimage to Austria and the Czech Republic, March 4 – 12, 2016. We hope you can support us on this incredible journey as we sing at the beautiful churches and cathedrals of Salzburg, Vienna and Prague.
Our journey begins in Salzburg, we will enjoy a guided tour of the city's sights, such as Monchsberg and Residenzplatz. As a special treat, we have received an invitation to sing for the Sunday Mass at the Salzburg Cathedral together with Salzburg Cathedral Choir.
In addition, our choir will also perform a recital at Melk Abbey. Next we will journey to Vienna, the Music Capital of the World and the city of Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms, and Strauss! We will visit the Hofburg Palace, the House of Parliament, City Hall and the Burgtheater. Our choir will present a concert at St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna and sing for the evening Mass at St. Peter's Church in Vienna.
Next we continue to Prague, the "City of 100 Spires" where we will visit the Charles Bridge, the Old Town, and the Prague Castle. We will present a concert at St. Nicholas Church on the Square and sing for the evening Mass at St.Vitus Cathedral in Prague.
A choir pilgrimage with us will be an especially meaningful one! We look forward to sharing our musical gifts with you during this remarkable and memorable trip
Dr. Andrew McShane Director of Music

From the Laskey website:
Development of the french horn mouthpiece line
Years of making custom french horn mouthpieces for players from around the world has helped determine what players want and need to make a difference in their sound. These features are now available to all players in the form of the Laskey standard product line of french horn mouthpieces. A special thanks to the many professional players from around the country who helped in the development of a concise and exceptional line of french horn mouthpieces consisting of seven rim sizes and four cup sizes.
Our Numbering System
As french horn players seem to use the metric system to describe the size of the mouthpieces, we decided to number our line in a metric way. Our line represents the meteric measurement, but we drop the first number. For instance, if a mouthpiece measures :
17,0mm is our 70 series
17,25mm is our 725 series
17,5mm is our 75 series
17,75mm is our 775 series
18,0mm becomes our 80 series
18,25mm is our 825 series
18,5mm becomes our 85 series
While these numbers are similar to the numbers we use in the trumpet line, there is no relationship to the size or measurement.
A Unique Rim Contour
A unique quality of our standard french horn mouthpiece line is the unique rim contour. There is definition to the inside diameter and yet the roundness of the rim shape allows for easy movement, as well as a high degree of control and flexibility.
We realize that many french horn players feel a personal affinity with a rim that they have played for many years. There is a certain degree of "comfort" in having the same rim on your face. But we believe this rim will not only offer comfort, it will also provide a higher degree of accuracy, flexibility and improved intonation.
Larger shank available
With the increased number of German-made horns, The Laskey Company is now making all of our horn mouthpieces available in the larger "European" shank. Players using Schmid, Hoyer horns, etc. now have Laskey mouthpieces made specifically for those instruments
Because the shank is slightly larger in diameter, it will not go in as far as
the standard shank.
This modification adds more "presence" to the sound, increases
the quality of attack and improves intonation and response.
Mouthpieces made with this larger shank are visually different from the standard
models in two ways:
* A smaller letter "E" follows the model number (ie 775GE)
* There is a pronounced ring cut into the top of the shank
If you are presently playing a horn with a larger receiver (Schmid, Hoyer,
Alexander, etc) you will find the changes we have made to be a significant
French Horn Cups
Our cup selection was determined by what are the most popular sizes being used by players today and what we believe will offer optimum performance. Many Laskey mouthpieces are available in the following four cup sizes.
While not all cups are available in all the sizes, we feel that the selection we make offers the musician a large selection.
All standard mouthpieces are made with a throat size of .182″/("14")/4,62mm.

A beautiful seven-story brick and limestone apartment building fronting Lincoln Park is threatened with demolition following a potential sale to a developer.
The building, located at 325 W. Fullerton Parkway, is flanked by two fine quality buildings, one the Orange-rated Aztec Apartments and the other an early Benjamin Marshall design, would be severely impacted by the rumored plans, which would include the demolition of the 325 building and the sale and use of air rights of those two neighbors to construct an approximately 30-story building.
Preservation Chicago is now working with Alderman Michelle Smith and the neighbors along Lincoln Park West, Fullerton, Commonwealth and Belden to consider a local Chicago Landmark District that would protect this important historic street wall overlooking Lincoln Park and the lakefront.
The area is largely comprised of many vintage apartment buildings and rowhouses that give it its distinctive scale and widespread loss would be devastating.
We'll provide updates as the situation evolves.

Like many past Crescent City Classic runners, Katherine McCoy has experienced perhaps the biggest complaint about the long-standing New Orleans tradition. Back in 2011, she described the race as "a complete free-for-all."
After a year hiatus in 2012, McCoy is back in the field of about 18,000 runners registered for the 35th Allstate Sugar Bowl Crescent City Classic. And this time, the race includes a welcome adjustment - corrals at the starting line on the corner of Loyola and Poydras that race director Eric Stuart hopes will combat runners' frustration about previous disorganization when the starting gun sounds.
"Beyond the starting line there were people who would jump in the race with strollers, or people in walking groups of like 7-10 would line up in such a way that it was very difficult and dangerous to pass them," McCoy said. "A corral system just seems like something every large race should do because it helps everybody figure out where they need to be in terms of their pace, and safety is one of the main concerns especially since some of the streets the race runs on aren't ultra smooth."
The Crescent City Classic has grown greatly in size since its inaugural running in 1979. When the field was much smaller, it was easier to organize runners according to pace, but chaos has taken over that will stop this year and "give some flow to the race," Stuart said.
"It's a huge adjustment in the fact that it organizes the race into allowing people to not only run a good time, but be running with people of their own ability," Stuart said. "Also the walkers will be with the walkers, and the strollers will be with the strollers, so from a social perspective for the people doing it that way, it should be a lot better for them too."
Stuart said he's received positive feedback about the significant change from 90 percent of the people involved. The detractors complain that the lack of corrals - letting participants run and walk at any position on the route - was a unique aspect of the Crescent City Classic.
But it deterred runners like Eric de Ronde and Karen Groce from running the race for a second time since they participated in 2009 and 2011, respectively.
"Half a mile in I'm passing walkers four or five wide with strollers and I was like 'What's going on here?'" de Ronde said. "It got so annoying. I stayed away from the Crescent City Classic at that point. I'm glad for the enjoyment of everybody they're starting to do (corrals)."
Groce simply said "she did not enjoy the race at all" when she had to constantly avoid packs of walkers, strollers and wagons in front of her. She said she wants to see proof that the official corrals are effective Saturday before she runs the Crescent City Classic again.
"It's a great time of year and great tradition in the city ... but the organization was just horrible," Groce said. "There was one volunteer with a brown sign - if your race number was brown, you were supposed to go with her. And who's going to stand there on a side street if you want to be on the pathway where the race is starting and go with the crowd? So as soon as you crossed the start, you tried to run but it was somewhat cattle-like. There was nobody there to enforce people with walkers and strollers."
There will be anywhere from 11 to 13 corrals where runners will be assigned on race day, depending on whether any smaller ones are combined, Stuart said. They will take off in three-minute intervals once the race begins.
Tim Wallace, a 2012 Crescent City Classic runner, said relegating walkers and other runners on slower paces to back corrals will bring much-needed control to such a large race.
"The corrals have been long overdue," Wallace said. "Runners who sprint a short distance but cannot hold a pace should not be intermingled with runners who are trying to keep a pace."
Stuart hopes repeat runners and those in the CCC for the first time will remain encouraged by the upgrades to the course and corrals.
He said organizing runners by their pace will enable everyone to enjoy the race for their own purpose.
"Too many times they've put in a ton of training only to have this mass start where people were darting at them from all different angles at the starting line or coming at them from Jackson Square," Stuart said. "Like 10 percent have said 'you guys took what was one of the unique characteristics of the race and removed it,' so honestly you can't please everybody … but if you read our social media, you could sum it up with 'it's about time.'"
Online registration for the CCC ends at midnight at ccc10k.com for $35. Participants can also register for $40 at the Health and Fitness Expo Thursday and Friday at the Hyatt Regency hotel.

CHICAGO—Steadfast Income REIT Inc., based in Irvine, Calif., has purchased two apartment properties in the Far West suburbs here for $37 million.
The 200-unit Arrowhead Apartments in Palatine was built in 1976 and saw a $1.4 million renovation in 2006. The property is 98-percent occupied, with amenities including a clubhouse, pool, fitness center, dog park and playground.
The 216-unit Moorings Apartments in Roselle were built in 1977. The units average 1,000 square feet and feature walk-in closets, patios and storage, with amenities that include a clubhouse, pool, laundry facilities, a business center and a garden-style setting complete with wooden bridges, ponds, waterfalls and streams. The 99-percent occupied property had a $1.3 million renovation in 2008.
Ella Neyland, president of the trust, in a statement that the transactions were separate. "We think these assets are well positioned in markets that have seen increasing rents, decreasing vacancies and no new apartment construction in the past five years," she said. The trust also owns the 190-unit Lincoln Towers apartment community in Springfield, Ill.
She said Steadfast also recently acquired its third Texas property, in another separate transaction, with the purchase of Ashley Oaks in San Antonio for $30.8 million. The 92-percent occupied property was built in phases with 216 units built in 1985 and another 246 added in 1995.
"We continue to expand and diversify our apartment holdings across a broad swath of Midwest and Southern states," said Neyland. "We think these assets are consistent with our focus on acquiring established apartments in locations that present strong opportunity for rent growth and value appreciation."

Higher, Faster, Stronger
Higher, Faster, Stronger was written for the BBC Proms in 2012. The piece was performed by a 56-voice strong choir, formed of the Eric Whitacre Singers and the BBC Singers, alongside percussion quartet ensemblebash.
The title, Higher, Faster, Stronger is derived from the Olympic motto, Citius, Altius, Fortius. To embody these powerful words into my composition, the massed voices of 56 professional singers were split into three choirs: Higher Choir, Faster Choir, Stronger Choir, creating the impression that the choirs are racing and competing throughout the piece.
An Olympic Ode from the 5th century BC by Greek poet Pindar seemed the perfect choice of poetry for this piece. I collaborated with my close friend, poet and historian, Charles Anthony Silvestri, to find this exquisite text which he has translated into Latin:
Best of all things is water;
but gold, like a gleaming fire by night,
outshines all pride of wealth beside.
But, my heart, would you chant the glory of games,
look never beyond the sun by day
for any star shining brighter through the deserted air,
nor any contest than Olympia greater to sing.
Pindar (ca. 522–443 BC)
Available from all good retailers including Musicroom and Hal Leonard.

The Crown Prosecutor's Services (CPS) special crimes division has charged the trio and their Pakistani-British agent Mazhar Majeed with conspiracy to commit fraud and cheating during the Lords Test last year against England.
The first formal hearing of the case will be heard at the Southwark Crown court on May 20, for which Asif has already left for London while Aamir is awaiting his visa.
According to a report in 'The News', a spokesperson of the legal aid commission said that although the accused trio are foreign nationals they are being charged in an English court of law so they can apply for legal aid.
The spokesperson added that they can apply for legal aid under the same means testing as any person from the United Kingdom.
"The means testing ensures that those who can afford to pay towards the costs of their defence do so," he said.
Nishtar Saleem, partner at Saracens solicitors in London explained that as the cricketers have been charged with what amounts to serious and imprisonment offences, they are entitled to apply for and be granted public funding to defend themselves.
"Remember the English law — these cricketers like everyone else are presumed to be innocent until proven guilty.
If they are found guilty of the offences charged against them, the legal services commission may demand that they contribute to their own legal costs so it is likely they will have to dig into their own pockets to pay part of the legal costs themselves," he said.
The Pakistan Cricket Board is not providing any legal assistance to the trio, insisting it is a matter between them and the CPS.
The legal advisor of the board Tafazzul Rizvi said that under the ICC laws, no cricket board can provide any financial assistance to any banned player.
The trio have also been banned for five years by the special anti-corruption commission of the ICC for spot-fixing during the Lords at a hearing in February in Doha.

FrankenPope welcomes criticism—he says
By Phil Lawler | Feb 10, 2017
"It's good to be criticized," said Pope Francis to religious superiors. "I have always liked this."
That's good to know. What a relief to think that all those stories we've been hearing—about the Vatican officials called in for tongue-lashing because they had expressed criticism of the Holy Father, the staff members of the CDF summarily dismissed for the same reason—must be wrong. And the angry speeches to the Roman Curia must have been misreported and/or misinterpreted.
But that's not all. Pope Francis went on to tell the religious superiors: "And when criticisms make you grow, I accept them, and reply."
So if, say, four cardinals criticize a papal document for ambiguity, and ask for a clarification, we can safely assume that he would reply.
Or maybe there are some criticisms that don't "make you grow." I wonder how one can tell the difference.

How to Use an Elliptical Trainer to Lose Weight
Elliptical training machines are a good choice of exercise equipment for those with back, leg or joint problems who cannot withstand the jarring caused by running and fast walking on a treadmill. Because of the features that make the elliptical safe, the benefits and effectiveness of elliptical trainers often are overlooked, report fitness consultants at All Ellipticals. Elliptical machines can be an effective addition to any weight-loss program.
Video of the Day
Step 1
Use the entire machine when you workout on an elliptical trainer. By using the upper and lower body, you are making the most efficient use of the time and burning the most calories. Since there is no strain put on the body, you can maintain the workout for longer and break into a pound-reducing sweat.
Step 2
Burn calories on an elliptical and keep track of the calories with a monitor that comes with many machines. If you input your age and weight into the equipment, you will get a better perspective on the number of calories you are burning. Estimates from consultants at All Ellipticals report that in a 30-minute workout, a 150-pound woman can burn 340 calories, on average. A 180-pound man burns about 500 calories in the same amount of time.
Step 3
Increase the intensity of the workout to burn more calories. Pedal faster and--if your machine allows--set the base on an incline to increase the burn. Break up your workout into two 15- or 20-minute sessions so that you can pour it on heavy for the time you are working out.
Step 4
Switch between going forward and backward. The more muscles you build, the more calories you'll burn, because toned muscles are more efficient at burning calories while you are working out and for a longer period of time following your workout.
Step 5
Adjust your workout as you become more efficient on the equipment. Add time to your workout and build up the intensity over a period of time as the workout becomes easier. Elliptical machines are good fitness trainers for beginners who want to start out slowly and stick with the same workout to increase efficiency.

With yesterday's ouster of Sallie Krawcheck from Citi, the prostration of Wall Street's triad of powerful women was a mission completed. The announcement, amid a week of devastating shake-ups in the financial sector, hit a particular nerve: Krawcheck had asked that clients be paid back for Citi's defective investments - an ethical response to the market's downward spiral that was appreciated less by higher-ups than it was by clients. Though the details of Krawcheck's departure are up for speculation, her story echoes the growing cultural narrative concerning our trust of women as leaders versus the support we give them - via the voting booth and board rooms - to lead us from the helm.
According to a Pew study released this August, Americans believe that women far surpass their male counterparts in the quality of their character as leaders. When it comes to honesty, intelligence, compassion, and creativity, Americans contend that women have "the right stuff." Yet the study also reveals a disjuncture between the public's trust of women as leaders, and their overall feeling of who makes a better leader. A mere six percent said women made better leaders, while one-fifth of respondents cited men as better leaders overall. As the study says, "Women emerge from this survey a bit like a sports team that racks up better statistics but still loses the game."
A report to be released this fall by The White House Project's Corporate Council resonates this finding. Across ten sectors - from business and politics to journalism and film - the report illustrates the persistent disparity between Americans' high level of trust for women as leaders, and the dismal percentage of women who have been supported in those arenas in their leadership.
Yet the characteristics that Americans attribute to women leaders are the very traits that many would say is sorely lacking - from Wall Street to Capitol Hill. With a proposed $700 billion rescue plan that would make already-suffering American taxpayers foot the bill for corporate capriciousness, it's near impossible to look at what has happened in the financial sector and not ask whether we would be having such devastation if more women were at the economic steering wheel.
Perhaps none had put it better than Sara Vines, in her humorous take for the The Times of London this week: "No sensible woman I know would have encouraged the selling of 120 percent mortgages to people who could barely afford their grocery bills. Such a think would be laughable, a bit like carrying of XXL condoms around in your pocket."
Krawcheck, and the rest of her female cohort on Wall Street, seem to be paying the price for what Vines says that women innately do - "stop for a tiny moment to consider the human cost of all this." In a country where nearly half of retirees expect to outlive their savings, where homeless shelters are brimming with families recently put out by foreclosures, and parents can't afford to send their children to college - let alone insure their health - the human cost is exactly what we need to be considering.
The difference between public trust in women as leaders versus the ample support of women to take on that leadership is faulty policy, any way you dice it. It's bad for our bottom line: as investors, business owners, customers, and as taxpayers.
In terms of the current economic meltdown, we would have been wise to take a hint from Sally Helgesen's book The Female Advantage. Though both genders are oriented toward the big picture, women "relate decisions to their larger effect upon the role of the family, the American education system, the environment, even world peace." In other words, women would have done the big-picture forecasting that might have saved Wall Street, and the rest of us, from this deepening downward spiral.
I am not an essentialist. I do not think that women, by nature, are endowed with traits that make them more compassionate, more honest, or more apt to think outside of the box. What I do know is that these traits have been largely gleaned by women through their life experiences, leading from the foot of the table. And it is exactly these foot-of-the-table characteristics that we need right now, and have for some time.
The same stale, insular, old-boys-club way of thinking is what got the rest of us into this mess. What we need now are fresh ideas and new perspectives, guided by ethical imperatives and a broader view of what prosperity, responsibility, and accountability really mean for our finances and our politics. Trusting in our nation's women - and supporting them in their leadership - is the one solution we have yet to try.

Manchester Central MP Lucy Powell has launched a new childcare survey for parents and providers locally to see what the top priorities are for families and childcare professionals.
The Government has embarked on a series of reforms which are creating unease in the childcare sector and parents face a triple whammy of rising prices, plummeting places and cuts to financial support to help pay for childcare.
Lucy Powell MP said: "Childcare is a big issue for parents and for providers. Government changes mean that it is tougher for families to pay for childcare and proposals to reduce adult to child ratios in nurseries and childminders raise concerns about quality, cost and safety. That's why I want to hear the views of parents and providers in Manchester Central. I hope you'll take five minutes to complete my survey and inform my childcare campaign."
Please complete the survey below and let Lucy know your views on childcare.

Supporting Local Early Years Systems
Early years maturity matrix
The early years maturity matrix is a self-assessment tool to help local areas measure how far they have achieved an effective integrated prevention and early intervention system for vulnerable children and families in the early years.
Parent-child interactions in the early years matter. Parents and care givers lay the foundations for children's life skills including the ability to build productive relationships, emotional regulation, communication, problem solving as well as strengthening their self esteem.
Developing a warm and loving bond with a sensitive and predictable parent or caregiver creates the context in which children develop positive expectations about themselves and others. While it is never too late for children to benefit from an enriched learning environment, a key opportunity is lost if their development is not fully supported when they are very young.
Some parents, however, struggle to provide their child with a sufficiently nurturing environment and so need high quality support that is matched to their needs.
From the point of conception through to the first day at school parents, babies and young children have regular contact with a range of different services including midwifery, health visiting, GPs, children centres, childcare and early education provision.
A focus on early intervention in these formative early years is crucial for ensuring that parents at risk of struggling with their young children are supported sufficiently and that all babies and children are given the best possible start in life.

Hellooooo Marina! I can't tell you how exciting it is to see a celebrity who commits to looking as fabulous and ultra feminine as Marina all the time. She's the cute and innocent girl next door and a throwback to the the sexy, sultry Hollywood sirens of the 50's all wrapped into one fantastic fashion package! Amazing.
What I love most about her, is her ability to mix that iconic 50's housewife look with a modern twist. Her edgy hair and make up give her a distinctive and unique look that makes her a true fashion icon in my eyes. I understand her taste in clothing isn't for everybody, and while I find her super girly style to die for, others may find it sickeningly sweet. So I'm warning you, if you have an aversion to pink, look away now, 'cause our Marina takes the expression "girly girl" to a whole other level!
Don't say I didn't warn you! Here's some of my favourite Marina inspired pieces from the high street at the moment. I could have made this entire list from ASOS clothing alone (their selection at the moment is crazy good!), but I thought it was best to give you some variety. Now that I've got her style down, I just need to figure out how to make my roots look good like Marina does. How does she do it?? Just, how?

We love to show off
After having a great experience ordering Jack's standard featured items, I decided to get a custom bookshelf to fit into my apartment. I couldn't have been happier with both the ordering process and the final result. Jack was extremely helpful in creating something that suited my space and needs, as well as giving me updates on the piece up until delivery. The bookshelf turned out beautifully; unique, functional, and eye-catching.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this coffee table. I got the Weathered Oak and I couldnt be happier with it. I get compliments every time someone comes over. It looks great, high quality. It arrived fast, was very easy to assemble (basically just have to screw in the legs) and you could even smell the fresh paint, thats how quickly it came. Highly recommend any product from this shop.
This desk is exactly what I had in mind. Excellent communications with Jack, lots of attention to detail including matching the look and stain of desk to the chair it goes with. Also, love the fact that we know where the wood comes from and approximate age. We are very pleased and recommend this seller highly. Delivery was an added bonus.
Love the table. Seller was great to work with, and came up with options for our particularly need to have a table fit over a radiator.
It's a beautiful piece of furniture. Love it. Perfect for my TV and looks lovely against my brick wall.
Simply beautiful piece! After a lot of searching for a media console, we found this one. We absolutely love it!! Amazing craftsmanship. Delivered in person right to our door .
This TV stand is beyond perfect! My home has tons of old, hardwood floors, built-in cabinetry and an overall "rustic" vibe. I've chosen mid-century furnishings and this TV stand is the absolute perfect melding of the two. The quality is sensational, assembly couldn't be simpler. The dark-walnut stain I chose was true to depiction on the site and I'm in love with the stainless legs. I didn't know that I was looking for this stand until I found it and I am so glad I did!
We imbue quality, craftsmanship and engineering in all our products, qualities that can be overlooked in a lot of handmade furniture. We strive for straight, clean lines and hand build each of our pieces one at a time in an expansive shop full of top-of-the-line tools.
We have a respect for natural materials and a passion for carpentry. With every cut we make, every hole we drill, and every stroke of our brush, the focus is on creating a finished product that's as beautiful as it is hard-working and represents our values of Quality, Craftsmanship, and Integrity.
All our wood comes from sustainable sources all over Ontario.

By Joseph Gunther
Adrian Peterson did everything he could for the Minnesota Vikings. However, his 182 rushing yards were not enough as the Vikings fell to the Seattle Seahawks 30-20 Sunday at CenturyLink Field.
Peterson began right from the opening drive with 80 yards by himself, including a 74-yard scamper to the Seahawk one-yard line. The 182 yards came on just 17 carries. He also had the Vikings only two touchdowns and led the team with three catches.
The game can be defined by two plays.
The Vikings (5-4) followed up its opening drive touchdown by forcing a punt. The Vikings were in the driver seat, but Percy Harvin turned the ball over on a fumble inside its own 20-yard line. The Seahawks had a short field and it took advantage three plays later on a six-yard touchdown pass from Russell Wilson to Golden Tate.
The second defining play came late in the second quarter when the Seahawks (5-4) tried to convert on fourth down at the Viking 48-yard line. Wilson tried to sneak off the right guard and appeared to be tackled short of the necessary yardage, but the ball was spotted at the 47 to give the Seahawks a first down. Antoine Winfield, who was involved in the tackle, was visibly upset with the spot. The Seahawks hurried to the line of scrimmage and did not give the replay judge a chance to review the play. Because the play came right after the two-minute warning, the Vikings were unable to challenge the spot. The Seahawks capped the drive with a touchdown with 52 seconds remaining.
If the spot had been short of the first down line, the Vikings would have had one minute and roughly 50 seconds remaining in the first half and 52 yards to add to a three point lead.
The Vikings have progressively gotten worse with its passing offense and running defense since winning four of its first five games this season. Head coach Leslie Frazier said after the game on KFAN radio that they felt they had a good feeling about its game plan for throwing the ball. That game plan, whether it was the plays called, the wide receivers' execution or the quarterback's execution, netted just 44 passing yards and four sacks allowed.
Defensive coordinator Alan Williams' unit just cannot stop the opposing quarterback. Sunday was no different, it has allowed a 100-yard rusher in four straight games – including Marshawn Lynch's 124 Sunday.
Grade: C+
If not for Peterson this would have been a complete disaster. Peterson totaled 193 yards (182 rushing and 11 receiving). The rest of the offensive unit totaled 94 yards. Christian Ponder threw for 63 yards (44 towards the team total because of sacks) while completing 11 of his 22 passes. The second-year quarterback also ran for 23 yards. Percy Harvin was obviously not 100 percent for most of the second half. He spent time with the trainers nursing the hamstring injury that has hampered him in recent weeks.
Despite the poor play in recent weeks, the Vikings have two players leading the league in their respective statistical categories. Peterson extended his league-leading rushing total to 76 yards over Lynch. Harvin has one reception lead over the Indianapolis Colts' Reggie Wayne for the league-lead in receptions.
Grade: B+
The Vikings defense played so well while the team won four of its first five games this season. As the team has dropped three of its last four, the defense has significantly underperformed. The biggest reason for the downfall has been tackling. The team has missed tackle after tackle.
The positive for the defense was that Chad Greenway extended his league lead to 15 tackles over the New England Patriots' linebacker Jerod Mayo. Jared Allen, combining with Brian Robison, recorded a half sack to give 7.5 this season.
The defensive backs struggled to stop Wilson and wide receivers Sidney Rice and Golden Tate. The loss of Chris Cook to the injured reserve list loomed large Sunday. Josh Robinson and A.J. Jefferson struggled to keep close tabs on the Seahawks' best two receivers.
Grade: C-
Special Teams
The special teams sure didn't mess this game up. Blair Walsh made his fifth field goal of over 50 yards this season. He also had four touchbacks in five kickoff attempts. The rookie is now 17-of-18 in field goal attempts and 19-of-19 on extra point attempts on the season.
The kickoff returners for the Vikings averaged 26.3 per return, led by Harvin's 39. Chris Kluwe punted three times for a 48.3 yard average, including a long of 57 yards. Kevin Williams also made a big play for the special teams by blocking an extra point attempt by Steven Hauschka to keep the Seahawks from taking a seven-point lead.
Grade: B

Taliban accused of using poison gas on schools
Officials accused extremists of launching a poison gas attack yesterday that caused dozens of schoolgirls to collapse with headaches and nausea as they waited in line for a Qur'an reading at their school in northeastern Afghanistan.
Webmaster's Commentary:
I am very suspicious of this story. Why would the Taliban (a word which means students) attack school children, knowing that this would destroy local public support for them? This is like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson opening fire on an American school in the war against Britain. Does it make any sense?

The concept is that the packaging will discourage underage smokers rendering the idea that smoking is no longer "cool" or "popular". Statistics show that the number of young people under the age of 16 has reached a new high and that this will tackle the problem preventing the glamour of packaging from attracting the younger members of the public.

The essays in this book demonstrate the breadth and vitality of American intellectual history. Their core theme is the diversity of both American intellectual life and of the frameworks that we must use to make sense of that diversity. The Worlds of American Intellectual History has at its heart studies of American thinkers. Yet it follows these thinkers and their ideas as they have crossed national, institutional, and intellectual boundaries. The volume explores ways in which American ideas have circulated in different cultures. It also examines the multiple sites--from social movements, museums, and courtrooms to popular and scholarly books and periodicals--in which people have articulated and deployed ideas within and beyond the borders of the United States. At these cultural frontiers, the authors demonstrate, multiple interactions have occurred - some friendly and mutually enriching, others laden with tension, misunderstandings, and conflict. The same holds for other kinds of borders, such as those within and between scholarly disciplines, or between American history and the histories of other cultures. The richness of contemporary American intellectual history springs from the variety of worlds with which it must engage. Intellectual historians have always relished being able to move back and forth between close readings of particular texts and efforts to make sense of broader cultural dispositions. That range is on display in this volume, which includes essays by scholars as fully at home in the disciplines of philosophy, literature, economics, sociology, political science, education, science, religion, and law as they are in history. It includes essays by prominent historians of European thought, attuned to the transatlantic conversations in which Europeans and Americans have been engaged since the seventeenth century, and American historians whose work has carried them not only to different regions in North America but across the North Atlantic to Europe, across the South Atlantic to Africa, and across the Pacific to South Asia.John Higham, Writing American History: Essays on Modern Scholarship ( Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1972), 169. 14.

The Social Innovation and Not-for-Profit Management concentration, part of the graduate major in Management, offers students business and management skills applicable to not-for-profit work. A person wishing to work in the not-for-profit field is not necessarily someone who is disinterested in making a profit. It may well be that this individual has invested many years in the for-profit rough-and-tumble world and now feels drawn to giving back to the community in a less aggressive, less competitive endeavor. This field also may appeal to the more humanitarian-minded individual who is just starting a career. The not-for-profit's primary goal is not to increase shareholder value; rather it is to fulfill some socially desirable need. A not-for-profit venture operates successfully because of keen business savvy and excellent management know-how. The emphasis in this enterprise is on stewardship, and all support—financial and otherwise—must be used as directed by the donors, and management must be held accountable for every aspect of the operation.
As baby boomers retire, there will be a greater need for replacement workers—and thus, more job opportunities—in nonprofit agencies and organizations. The nonprofit sector is emerging as an economic powerhouse, says Deborah Cuny, director of Especially for Nonprofit Organizations at Virginia Commonwealth University. A study released by the Community Foundation revealed that if the nonprofit sector were to shut down, the entire economy would collapse. While one may not get rich in a nonprofit position, many nonprofits offer more flex and vacation time and permit a more relaxed dress code. "Nonprofit work can super-size your skill set," says Jennifer Cunningham at California State Fullerton's Career Center, since an employee, rather than focusing on just one job function, may play several different roles in the organization. Nonprofit work allows one to network, meet community movers and shakers, and build a resume. Nonprofits employ more women than men, offering greater opportunities for women to excel.
The New York Daily News ran a story about senior Whitney Plumendahl, an applied sociology major at St. Cloud State University in St. Cloud, Minn. Plumendahl decided even before graduation that she would limit her job search to opportunities in the nonprofit sector. "It's not that I'm not open to other options, but I'm not a huge fan of corporate culture. For me, it's not about making money … it's about making a difference." The story goes on to explain that this individual certainly isn't the only college graduate who wants to do good in the world, but the probability of lower pay will prevent many well-intentioned students from pursuing careers in nonprofits. Yet, nonprofit work can be extremely rewarding.
If your desire is to enrich the lives of those in need through education and service, then working in a not-for-profit organization can be richly rewarding. Not-for-profit management is no less demanding than upper-level positions in the corporate world. Successful humanitarian and outreach programs require a rock-solid work ethic. Because not-for-profit enterprises depend greatly on a volunteer work force, the need for professional leadership is paramount. Examples of career opportunities include areas such as
Because this program is relatively new, employer information is still being compiled. Following are examples of employers of Management graduates and Career Fair participants:
The Master of Science (M.S.) in Management is offered by the Department of Management in the Jennings A. Jones College of Business. This program, with three concentrations, offers students planning, communication, and ethical decision-making skills through experiential learning in which they will find themselves in the trenches of the real-world work environment. Each concentration—Social Innovation and Not-for-Profit Management, Organizational Leadership (provides students with business and leadership skills that can be applied in a variety of leadership roles in business, government, or education), and Supply Chain Management (provides students with business and operations management skills that can be applied to work in logistics, transportation, and supply chain management careers)—includes a capstone project in which students will partner with an organization in the industry or non-profit sector.
The undergraduate program in the Department of Management offers the Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A.) degree with majors in Business Administration, Entrepreneurship, and Management. Minors are available in Entrepreneurship and Management; the department participates in interdisciplinary minors in Business Administration, Entrepreneurship, and Leadership Studies.
Dan Morrell, Program Director
