As a professional mediator, I am always encouraged by the use of mediation to resolve international conflicts. However, in the case of Syria, I have little confidence that mediation will bring peace to the conflict. Very few of the essential elements for successful mediation are present in this conflict.
The first consideration in convening any mediation is deciding who the parties at the table will be. In this case, the current Syrian government will certainly be a party. However, there does not appear to be a credible spokesperson for the rebels. One of the reasons that international support has not coalesced in support of the rebels like it did in Libya is because the rebels have not proven themselves capable of creating a coherent political force. Since mediation is about decision-making, we have to ask the question: "Who has the power to make binding decisions for the parties?" Obviously, the Syrian government can make decisions. Who, in the rebel group, can make binding decisions for the people that oppose the al Assad regime?
The Syrian National Council claims authority for the resistance against the al Assad regime. Burhan Galioun, a professor of political sociology at the Universite de Paris III Sorbonne University, was appointed as head of the SNC on August 29, 2011. However, Professor Galioun has made statements that are not universally shared by the various rebel factions. It is unlikely that either he or the Syrian National Council speaks for all factions.
One of the issues that plagues peaceful resolution of internal conflicts and civil wars is decision-making authority. It's one thing to mediate a dispute in a contested presidential election, when the disputants are easily recognized as political opponents. It's another thing altogether to mediate the dispute the between a fractious rebel group and an antagonistic government. The al Assad regime can rightfully ask by what authority to the representatives of the rebels come to the table? Any mediator taking on the Syrian problem will spend a considerable amount of time answering that question, and the entire enterprise will collapse if it is not answered thoroughly.
A related issue has to do with legitimizing the antagonists. In the 1970s, the protracted negotiations over the shapes of the tables and who would sit where in the US North Vietnam talks was about legitimizing primary parties at the table. In Syria's case, the al Assad regime could protest participation of rebel representatives because allowing participation would confer unwanted legitimacy. At the outset, the mediator will have to be prepared to deal with challenges to legitimate participation by primary parties.
The people of Syria have the most at stake in any mediated talks. The mediator will have to consider how to make sure that the legitimate concerns of the people, which will include social and distributive injustices, political inclusion, economic reform, safety from violence and social stability. In this regard, the mediator may consider finding civil society representatives, including women, to participate as direct and primary participants. The mediator will have to secure the consent of the rebel representatives and the government representatives to share decision-making power with civil society representatives who otherwise would not have a voice in the process.
In addition to primary parties, mediation involves secondary parties. In the case of Syria, the secondary parties are numerous. They include Hamas, Iran, Russia and China, the US, Israel, and the EU, the Arab League, the UN, the Muslim Brotherhood, Sunni Arab nations such as Saudi Arabia, and other conservative Islamic groups. All of these parties have vested and conflicting interests in the outcome of the Syrian conflict. All of these parties wish to influence the outcome to benefit their particular interests. They will be seeking direct participation at the table. If they are denied participation of the table, they will seek to influence the process in other ways, including as spoilers. The mediator will have to design a process that provides for secondary party participation and inclusion, but does not permit undue interference in the direct talks between the primary parties.
Assuming that agreements can be reached upon who will participate in the process, the mediator will be confronted with what is to be mediated. The superficial answer will be to mediate a political solution to the violence. However, that is grossly insufficient to bring about a lasting peace. As we have seen in Kenya, the superficial political solution has led to continued gross economic and social injustice, continued tribal conflict, and the essential shutdown of an effective government. The Sentinel Project observes that Kenya is ripe for genocide. (http://thesentinelproject.org/wp-content/uploads/Risk-Assessment-Kenya-2011.pdf). I believe this is a direct result of the failure of the mediator to force Odinga and Kibaki to address serious structural injustices instead choosing to seek superficial political solutions through an ineffective and unworkable power-sharing arrangement.
The same problem exists in Syria, except that it is worse. Rather than mediating a contested presidential election, the mediator will have to end a civil war and deal with generations of abuse, injustice, and human rights violations. Burhan Ghalioun, the appointed head of the Syrian National Council, is skeptical of dialogue with the al Assad regime. "The regime is not interested in or willing to meet the requirements of a meaningful dialogue," Ghalioun wrote. The opposition cannot join dialogue with "officials who contributed to or ordered the killing of defenseless children, women, and young people." He has said that dialogue would be fruitless unless the clear objective was "to dismantle the regime of repression, oppression, and tyranny and replace it with a democratic order in which the people alone have the final say and the government is fully empowered and answerable to elected representatives of the people."
Ghalioun believes that "dialogue should not mean a deal with the regime. It must not be about broadening the circle of participation" to members of the authorities; rather "it must be about a timetable for a transition to democracy by peaceful means, in the hope of avoiding more human casualties and material losses, and creating the necessary conditions for new institutions to be built and function properly." To Ghalioun, the government leaders "lost their legitimacy" when they unleashed bloody violence against peaceful protesters.
From these statements, it is clear that if the mediator seeks a superficial political solution through power-sharing, without forcing the parties to confront the centuries old conflicts between the Alawites, the Sunnis, and the Syrian minorities, the mediation will make the situation worse, not better.
Thus, the mediator will be well advised to discuss what is to be mediated and to explore the potential range of outcomes that will be satisfactory to all of the participants. This exploration by itself will be time-consuming and exhausting as it will consist of a negotiation over what is to be negotiated. However, that is the work of the mediator and is to be anticipated and planned for.
Finally, does the mediator have the staying power that the Syrian mediation will require? In the Kenyan election crisis, the mediator abandoned the mediation process after six weeks and turned it over to another mediator who abandoned the process six weeks after that. There was no long-term plan for engagement and no plan for helping the parties resolve ongoing differences and conflicts. Will the mediator in the Syrian conflict be committed to the years it may take to bring peace to Syria? This is not a six week or six-month engagement. The intractability of the dispute and the ongoing violence suggests that a mediated negotiation might last for years. Even then, success will be problematic.
International conflict mediation has not been typified by exemplary mediation practice. Instead, most international conflict mediations have been ad hoc affairs conducted by diplomats and political envoys with little or no experience in decision making theory, conflict theory, neuro social psychology, behavioral economics, and a host of other disciplines that modern mediators study and practice. The Syrian conflict will call upon the deepest skills and reserves of the very best mediator. Even then, a peaceful resolution is improbable. I hope that the mediator considers some of these issues before he starts his work.

Operation Tiger Hound launched
In some of the heaviest raids of the war, 150 U.S. Air Force and Navy planes launch Operation Tiger Hound to interdict the Ho Chi Minh Trail in the lower portion of the Laotian panhandle, from Route 9 west of the Demilitarized Zone, south to the Cambodian border.
The purpose of this operation, which lasted until 1968, was to reduce North Vietnamese infiltration down the trail into South Vietnam. After 1968, the Tiger Hound missions became part of a new operation called Commando Hunt.

Published January 13, 2015
A spokesman for the family of a man suspected of kidnapping a 16-year-old Southern California girl and killing her mother and brother wants DNA samples to determine if the suspect fathered the children.
Andrew Spanswick told KGTV-TV in San Diego that there are rumors that James Lee DiMaggio fathered both children and that it's odd that the suspect named their maternal grandmother as a life insurance beneficiary. A spokeswoman for Hannah Anderson's family disputes the suggestion, saying DiMaggio didn't meet Hannah's mother until she was six months pregnant with her.
Anderson family spokeswoman Stacy Hess also says Brett Anderson's DNA was used to confirm the identity of 8-year-old Ethan Anderson, whose remains were found Aug. 4.
The DiMaggio family spokesman didn't immediately respond to messages from The Associated Press.

Blue Ridge PBS wins two regional Emmy Awards
Station earns four Emmys over three years
(Roanoke, Va.)—Blue Ridge PBS is the winner of two 2011 Emmy® Awards from the National Capital Chesapeake Bay Chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
The awards were announced June 16 in a ceremony at the Newseum in Washington, D.C. The chapter is comprised of commercial and public television stations in Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia.
Blue Ridge PBS received an Emmy Award for "Bob Ross: The Happy Painter" in the Documentary-Cultural category. Another Emmy was presented in the Chesapeake Heritage-Feature category for "The Music of Coal," from the station's "On the Crooked Road" series. Previously, Blue Ridge PBS was honored with the 2010 and 2009 regional Emmys for Community Service for "JobQuest."
"The Emmys awarded to the Blue Ridge PBS team on Saturday night recognize continued excellence in the creation of our local programs," said James Baum, president and CEO of Blue Ridge PBS. "Winning the Emmy, one of the media's most prestigious awards, is gratifying because it comes from our contemporaries in the broadcast industry. We are deeply honored by these awards, and grateful to the individuals and organizations throughout the region that support the mission of Blue Ridge PBS."
"Bob Ross: The Happy Painter" explores one of the most iconic figures in public television by tracing his development as an artist and the unlikely success of his popular series, "The Joy of Painting." The documentary features interview segments with celebrities who learned to paint the Bob Ross way including Brad Paisley, Jane Seymour and Terrance Howard. Blue Ridge PBS also secured an interview with Phil Donahue, who played an important role in Bob Ross' career by featuring the artist on his Chicago-based show.
"The Music of Coal" is one of 18 segments in the Blue Ridge PBS series, "On the Crooked Road." Recorded at a variety of locations including the Harry Meador Coal Museum in Big Stone Gap, Va., the influence of coal mining on life and music in southwest Virginia is explained by regional experts such as Ron Short, Alan Maggard, Woody Crenshaw and Jack Hinshelwood.
Support for "The Music of Coal" was provided by Heartwood, King College and Virginia Highlands Community College. The "On the Crooked Road" series was made possible in part by funding from the Appalachian Regional Commission, Alpha Natural Resources, Dominion, the Williams-Berry Charitable Fund, the Mooneyhan Family Foundation and the members of Blue Ridge PBS.
"The Music of Coal" and other segments from "On the Crooked Road" can be viewed under the Videos tab at BlueRidgePBS.org.

People You Know, May to July 2010
Bruce Kennedy (73, BS, mining engr.) recently moved to Tucson, Ariz. He writes, "I am currently working in the consulting industry and am involved in mining activities around the world. The last six months have seen me in Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Panama and Mexico as well as at several sites in the United States. I am working remotely on a mine in Israel, too. The change from working for mining companies to consulting has been interesting."
Dr. Michael Glaviano (79, Ph.D., mathematical physics) decided to switch gears after over 28 years in high tech. He is the author of the novel The Locust Queen's Feast , available in both Kindle and print versions from Amazon. The book is described as "a contemporary story of parallel worlds and the loss of magic in our own. It is told against a backdrop of urban decay, alienation, obsession, and unmitigated evil."
Leland Huffman (80, BS, geophysics) has been named ISR Engineering and Operations Manager for Bayswater Uranium Corporation for the Reno Creek Uranium Project in Wyoming. He will oversee the development of wellfield and processing plant design, and support the environmental permitting process presently underway for the Reno Creek project. Mr. Huffman, B.Sc. has a career spanning more than 28 years in the uranium mining industry with expertise in wellfield design, development, construction and operations with particular emphasis on post mining groundwater restoration.
Mona (Guzman) Ellis (84, BS, physics and math) received tenure as a professor of mathematics at Palomar College in San Marcos, CA. She changed career paths after several years working as a project manager and scientific programmer studying effects of nuclear radiation. She finds teaching math at a community college to be much more fulfilling than her previous defense work.
Mona lives in Carlsbad, Calif., with her husband of 26 years, Ron, and their two children, A.J. and Audrey. A.J. will be transferring from Palomar College to UC Santa Cruz in the fall. Audrey is in the sixth grade and an avid volleyball player.

Holliday missed cause people are pissed
11/11/08 108 days till the Mobile Blog rolls on down to Tucson.
Man, is there a whole lot of smack talking going on about this Matt Holliday trade. I'm finding the ratio to be about 50/50, pleased vs **********.
Me, I'm cool with it. Enjoy the weather Matt. Oakland's a beautiful city,….psyche.
Most of the fans who are upset about the trade are the ones who have a severe dislike for the Monfort brothers (Rockies majority owners),
Word is the Rockies are going to deal Huston Street (that's a cool name), but Carlos Gonzalez could work out nicely. He's another option for center field if the Rockies wind up dealing Taveras?
Gonzalez is twenty three-years old and hails from Venezuela. In his rookie season he hit .242 with four home runs and 26 RBIs in 85 games.
In AAA Sacramento he hit .283 with four homers and 28 RBIs.
Sounds great right. Could be, but Carlos has been known to strike out a lot.
I'll reserve any judgment until I see this guy in uniform on the field.
Here's a quote from Gonzalez while riding on a bus to Caracas in Venezuela where he is playing winter ball.
"A lot of people are trying to call me, I'm hearing I got traded. This is baseball; you can't do anything about it. You just have to get ready to play. Holliday is a very attractive player and he'll be great for the Oakland A's. It will be great for me, too. I can make my name in a new organization, but I'll always thank the A's for giving me the opportunity, for bringing me up."
Good Luck in Colorado Carlos !
The other dude included in the deal is lefty pitcher Greg Smith. Smith is 24 years old and attended Louisiana State University.
The D'backs in the 2005 Major League Baseball Draft selected him in the sixth round.
In December of 2007 he was traded to the Oakland A's.
Smith's first major league start was on April 9 2008. He pitched six innings and allowed two earned runs earning him a no decision.
He record with the A's is 7-16 with a 4.16 ERA.
In 2008 he led the majors with sixteen pickoffs which tied the record.
They have only been keeping track of pickoffs since 1987.
So the question is, How do you best spend the saved $ from unloading Matt Holliday's contract and keep fans coming back?
The Monforts have said many times that the amount of money they have to spend on player salaries is dependent on ticket sales.
Losing Holliday, Fuentes or Atkins isn't going to increase ticket sales. In my opinion there is only one thing that will increase ticket sales.
Cheerleaders…no I'm just kidding. We need a big name in Denver.
We need a Superstar.
Not like a Molly Shannon superstar, we need like a Cole Hamels superstar.
Pitching, it's the Rockies Achilles heel or athletes foot.
The beginning of this past season was the only time that I can remember feeling somewhat confident in our bullpen.
Why wouldn't I be, we had made it to the World Series.
That feeling was short lived. Remember Franklin Morales and Kip Wells, not much materialized there.
Jeff Francis didn't help matters by continuing to pitch sub-par and not informing anyone his shoulder had been hurting him.
Our bullpen struggled right from the start and barely improved through rest of the season. We all know a below .500 season is unacceptable for this Division. Yet it seems to be a benchmark we struggle to reach yearly.
DO IT Monforts, both of you, make that move, do it for the fans.
If it doesn't work you can sell the Rockies and devote your efforts into developing a tastier hotdog…D

Right, because the weather is different for everyone of them.

But the weather conditions will be the ultimate decider on who wins.
Nutella1 should recall what happened in 2012. If the weather conditions were ideal, Wesley Korir would have finished outside the top four. G. Mutai, Gebre Mariam, Levy Matebo, Wilson Chebet and maybe Mathew Kisorio would have finished ahead of him. But as it turns out, none of them handled the horrible conditions better than him(Korir). So yes, weather affects everyone differently. Also remember David Rudisha, who has dominated 800m for at least three years now, has been beaten twice in similar weather conditions(cold/or rainy).

Chesterton Tribune
Hoosiers go for Romney elect Donnelly and Pence
Associated Press
(AP) — Indiana voters' independent streak was on display Tuesday as the
conservative state chose Republicans Mitt Romney for president and Mike
Pence to replace popular GOP Gov. Mitch Daniels, but rejected a tea
party-backed Senate candidate and ousted the state's top education official.
Romney returned
Indiana to the Republican column in the presidential race after President
Barack Obama's surprise 2008 victory, while moderate Democrat Joe Donnelly
was elected to the Senate after beating Republican Richard Mourdock, whose
candidacy stumbled on a series of missteps following his primary upset of
longtime U.S. Sen. Richard Lugar.
Donnelly's win
dealt a blow to the tea party, which had hoped to snag one of its biggest
campaign prizes with a Mourdock victory. Nonetheless, the stage is set for a
conservative Statehouse that could continue the policies started under
"At least there
will be some continuity," said Harry Gaunt, an 81-year-old ex-Marine and
Indianapolis jeweler who voted for Pence.
Republicans also
made gains in Indiana's U.S. House delegation and the General Assembly, but
several Statehouse races were too close to call Tuesday, and it was unclear
whether the GOP would have a supermajority in the House.
In another
Democratic upset, Glenda Ritz beat Republican state school Superintendent
Tony Bennett, whom teachers had opposed because of sweeping changes he has
pushed in the state's schools.
In the
Republican primary in May, Mourdock knocked off Lugar, a six-term Senator,
but he couldn't translate that win into a general election victory,
especially after his comments during an Oct. 23 debate that a pregnancy
resulting from rape is "something God intended."
Donnelly, a
three-term Democratic congressman from northern Indiana, drew support from
Lugar backers and Mourdock opponents. With most precincts reporting,
Donnelly collected 50 percent of the vote to Mourdock's 44 percent.
Janet Sutton, of
Indianapolis, said she voted for Lugar in the primary and Donnelly on
Tuesday, even though she wanted Republicans to win a majority in the Senate.
"I sat in there
quite a while trying to figure out which way I was going to go," said
Sutton, who is in her 60s. "I did not like some of the issues Mourdock had."
Kathy Weddle,
42, of Osceola in northern Indiana, also voted for Donnelly.
"That's just a
stupid comment," she said of Mourdock's debate statement. "God would not
want that to happen. Being someone who took a long time to get pregnant, I
don't believe God makes (a) decision on that."
Romney's win in
Indiana was founded on support from whites, conservatives, voters older than
40 and people with family incomes of at least $50,000. Obama, who in 2008
gave Democrats their first Indiana presidential ticket victory since 1964,
lost ground with younger people and those with incomes of more than
picked up one seat in the state's congressional delegation, with former
state Rep. Jackie Walorski's victory over Brendan Mullen in the 2nd
District. All of the state's congressional incumbents won re-election, and
Republicans Susan Brooks and Luke Messer picked up open seats in the 5th and
6th Districts, respectively.
After winning
the state schools post, Ritz said parents, as well as teachers, disliked
Bennett's agenda, which she saw as more political than educational.
Voting was heavy
across the state but went smoothly for the most part, said Valerie Kroeger,
a spokeswoman for the Indiana secretary of state's office.
There were a few
wrinkles, however. A bank robbery and shootout in Muncie made it difficult
for voters to get to one polling site, and election officials in Bloomington
said a misleading email caused confusion over where Indiana University
students were supposed to vote.
voting delays were reported in heavily Republican Hamilton County just north
of Indianapolis, where voters were still standing in line at some sites an
hour after the deadline for polls to close passed. Officials there said the
lines were due more to voter turnout than to a technical glitch that delayed
the start of voting at some sites.

Just a quick note:
I can't ever say I've been a big fan of Atmosphere or Slug — no hate per se either, it's just a case of my interests and passions being elsewhere. Pete Scholtes has always kept an eye on him, though, to put it mildly, and in a newly started ILX thread on Atmosphere has copied something posted on another message board, referring to the new album When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold, which in its very sad and tragic way sums up what music can do for someone, especially if they're more isolated than one can imagine:
'after listening to it for almost a week i've concluded it's an amazing fuckin album. not that anyone cares but this has so far been a bad year for me. my only brother died christmas day 2007 of diabetes related congestive heart failure…then my father died on april 3rd from a diabetes related heart attack. needless to say with all this shit over my head the last thing that mattered to me was any new lp. but after copping "lemons" and listening to it all the way through 50 plus times man…the shit totally is the only "hip hop" shit i can listen to right now. "painting" has to be one of my favorite tracks of all time. totally reminds me of what i'm going through right now. i just figured i'd type all that cause the dreams wont let me sleep. now im gonna sit here with my diabetic ass, smoking newports and listen to this shit over and over, and pray god don't take me so soon.
'and yea i realize this really wasnt about the new lp all that much. but i needed to type. its lonely in brainerd'
Hoping for the best, for whoever this is. Hope that album helps see that person through to a time when sleep won't be tormented by dreams. It's a salutory reminder that whatever it is we might dismiss for whatever reason could well be the necessary anchor for someone else.

SOCORRO, N.M., May 23, 2002 -- Laurie Tennison, residential life coordinator at New Mexico Tech, recently had her article, "Show Me the Money: An In-Depth Look at RA Compensation," published in the current issue of RA Manager, a monthly newsletter distributed to more than 1,300 colleges and universities in the United States.
Tennison also recently was named to this year's editorial advisory board for PaperClip Communications, the publisher of RA Manager and other newsletters and various resources for students and staff employed in higher education settings.
In her recent article, Tennison explores one of the hottest topics among Resident Assistants (RAs) throughout the nation's campuses--the recurring issue of compensation packages.
"It's best to be prepared, because at some point a staff member will come to you with a compensation issue," Tennison writes, "either he is not getting paid enough, or he has done the research and an RA at another institution is getting paid more."
"Ms. Tennison was hand-picked due to her experience in the field of student affairs, her knowledge of student development issues, and her enthusiasm for the work," says Julie Phillips, assistant publisher of PaperClip Communications. "We were pleased to publish her article, and know that the information benefited our readers."

Man rejects third offer in Groton strangling case from 2008
The state has sweetened its plea offer once again to a man accused of fatally strangling José Cartagena in Groton four years ago, and the defendant, Dirren Conyers, has once again rejected the deal.
Conyers, 35, of Groton was charged with first-degree manslaughter and first-degree unlawful restraint after a melee in front of a Miami Court, Groton, home on April 13, 2008, that resulted in Cartagena's death.
He has rejected a third offer from New London prosecutor Paul J. Narducci to plead guilty to a lesser charge in exchange for a reduced prison sentence. Had he accepted, he would have pleaded guilty to second-degree manslaughter and would have been sentenced to 10 years in prison, suspended after six years served, and five years probation.
His case remains on the trial list, and during his appearance in Superior Court Monday morning, Judge Patrick J. Clifford told him the case is a priority since it's so old.
Conyers, who is free on a $250,000 bond, rejected an initial offer to plead guilty in exchange for a prison sentence of 20 years in prison, suspended after 15 years served, and five years' probation.
In 2011, he turned town a second offer involving a sentence of up to 10 years in prison.
According to court documents, Cartagena, 36, died after tangling with a group of people who had gathered outside a house on Miami Court after closing time at Sully's Cafe, a local bar. At one point, seven or eight people were kicking and punching him as he lay on the ground, according to a witness.
Conyers is accused of placing Cartagena in a choke hold until he stopped breathing. Police also charged a second man, James D. Smith, with unlawful restraint, third-degree assault and second-degree breach of peace. Smith's case is pending.

Video: Softwheel Acrobat Reinvents the Wheel
This is fascinating! I have a family member who was--for a time--mostly confined to a wheel chair, due to spinal nerve damage. Every bump and jolt would cause him a lot of pain. The design of the large wheels on the wheelchair shown in this video just might eliminate a lot of that problem. It's another example of how engineering continues to evolve in ways that can make our quality of life just that much better.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - Four unanswered goals in the second half powered Massachusetts Maritime Academy to a 7-5 victory over MIT in Pilgrim Lacrosse League action on Saturday. The Buccaneers improved to 2-4 on the year and 1-1 in conference play while the Engineers' ledger lowered to 1-6 overall and 0-2 in Pilgrim play.
Connor Burke opened the scoring when connected on a feed from Brian Burke for a man-up goal after 1:51 elapsed. MIT quickly tallied the equalizer when Patrick Shannon converted a pass from Ryan Ballentine. The Engineers took the lead at the 10:51 mark following an unassisted strike by John Kucharczyk. A solo effort by Brian Burke evened the game at two almost two minutes later. MIT went ahead with 1:44 remaining courtesy of an extra-man goal by Dylan Roden that was set up by Corey Garvey.
The Cardinal and Gray extended its advantage to 4-2 early in the second quarter when Patrick Shannon found Ballentine for his second point of the day. The tandem of Brian Burke and Connor Burke cut Massachusetts Maritime's deficit in half with 4:56 on the clock. MIT reestablished its two-goal margin after Will Gibson scooped up a groundball, sprinted down field and set up Dan Piemont just before the intermission.
In the third quarter, Connor Burke posted an unassisted goal that narrowed the gap to one (5-4) after 4:06 expired. He then found Brian Burke for the tying goal and the duo's fourth point of the day.
The Buccaneers continued to attack in the final frame as Ryan Linn registered what proved to be the game-winning goal early in the period and Matt Sullivan tacked on an insurance tally at the 8:36 mark. The Engineers were awarded a pair of extra-man opportunities, but the Massachusetts Maritime defense was impregnable.
In net, Garth Grove collected 17 saves for MIT as Garvey picked up a game-high nine groundballs. James Hitchings stopped 25 shots for the Buccaneers, including 13 during the second half.
Both teams will continue action on the road on Tuesday, April 8. MIT will travel to UMass Boston while Massachusetts Maritime will make the trip to Salem State College.

Background information Edit
- A medical record seen in TOS: "Where No Man Has Gone Before" lists Gary Mitchell as 23 years old. If this was his age at the time of the episode, set in 2265, that would mean he was born in 2242. It is unknown, however, if that record was from Mitchell's last psychological examination (which could have been several years prior) or if was more recent. The record also lists him as being born in the city of Eldman on stardate 1087.7.
- An early draft of TOS: "Miri" would have established that Janice Rand was twenty-four years old at that time, and thus would have been born in this year.

$784 Million in New Transportation Funding to Help Create Jobs and Bolster the Economy
SAN LUIS OBISPO – Following last week's announcement of the general obligation bond sales, the California Transportation Commission (CTC) today allocated $784 million in new funding for 61 projects that will help create thousands of jobs bolstering the state's economic recovery - and reduce traffic congestion, repair highways and bridges, and make driving safer for everyone.
Last week's bond sale allowed projects that were delayed or at risk of delay due to lack of funding to move forward to construction. In addition, the bond proceeds will also fund more than 300 ongoing projects through June 2012. The ongoing and newly allocated projects leverage around $11 billion in non-state funds, giving our economy an added boost.
"These projects will allow billions of dollars to flow into construction and produce enormous economic benefits for California," said Acting Caltrans Director Malcolm Dougherty.
Highlights of the funding allocations include:
- Highway 101 (Monterey County) -- $687,000 for landscape mitigation at the Airport Blvd. interchange in south Salinas.
- Highway 1 (Santa Cruz County) -- $1.3 million to construct 3/4 mile of concrete median barrier between Highway 9 and High Street in the City of Santa Cruz.
- Highway 166 (San Luis Obispo/Santa Barbara County Line) -- $335,000 to construct 6½ miles of centerline rumble strips near New Cuyama.
The CTC funding today includes $695 million from Proposition 1B, the 2006 voter-approved transportation bond. To date, the state has allocated more than $9 billion in Proposition 1B funds.
Please see the attached file for more information about all projects that received allocations today.

Medical Schools Dr. Edwin Cadman announces retirement from UH ManoaUniversity of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa
After a decade of service, Dr. Edwin Cadman, former dean of the John A. Burns School of Medicine, is retiring from the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa. Dr. Cadman moved from Yale University in November 1999 to be dean of JABSOM, a position he held until 2005, when he stepped down as dean but continued as a member of the faculty.
"The University of Hawai'i and our entire state owes Dr. Cadman a deep debt of gratitude for his outstanding service, and we wish him well," said UH President David McClain. Dr. Cadman plans to retire October 31.
UH Mānoa Chancellor Virginia S. Hinshaw adds: "Our UH Medical School's Kaka'ako campus was built as a direct result of Ed Cadman's energy, passion and vision. Thanks to him, the Medical School's Class of 2009 is graduating this month after studying for the past four years in one of the most modern medical schools in the country."
"We look forward to celebrating his many accomplishments in the months to come," she said.
Before coming to Hawai'i, Dr. Cadman served as Chief of Staff and Senior Vice-President for Medical Affairs at Yale-New Haven Hospital Health System since 1987.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. - Five seniors and one team were honored by the Yale Athletics Department with awards at the annual Senior Varsity Dinner Wednesday night in Commons. Football player Alan Kimball (Olathe, Kan.), cross country/track athlete Jessie MacLeod (Guilford, Conn.) and women's swimmer Katelyn Kane (Basking Ridge, N.J.) received the Kiphuth Student-Athlete Distinction Award. Women's rower Jennie Hansen (Rosemont, Pa.) and football player David Silberstein (Wyckoff, N.J.) were presented with the Ford Student-Athlete Community Outreach Award. In addition, the men's tennis team earned the Brodhead Award for highest team GPA.
The Kiphuth Award, given to the male and female student-athletes who rank highest in scholarship and have earned two varsity letters prior to their senior year, is named in honor of DeLaney Kiphuth '41, M.A. '47. Kiphuth served as Director of Athletics from 1954 through 1976.
Kimball, a kicker for the Bulldogs football team, has been awarded a 2007-08 NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship. He was a three-year letterwinner and led the Ivy League in 2007 with 1.40 field goals per game. Last fall he was a semifinalist for the Draddy Award as the nation's top football scholar. MacLeod, who helped the women's cross country team win the 2007 Brodhead Award, was a distance runner for the Bulldogs. Kane, who swam freestyle and butterfly for the Bulldogs, received three awards - the William Leeming Jelliffe Award, the MacLeish Memorial Swimming Trophy and the Robert J.H. Kiphuth Trophy - at the team's annual post season banquet.
The Ford Award is given annually to the male and female student-athletes who during the past four years have demonstrated their commitment to strengthening the relationship between Yale Athletics and the youth in the New Haven community. It is named in honor of Thomas W. Ford '42, who endowed the Yale Department of Athletics Community Outreach Program in the fall of 1996.
Hansen, the captain of Yale's nationally ranked women's crew team, has been an active member of the Yale Community Rowing program. She has helped to organize and coach the youth "Learn To Row" clinics and served as a leader on the summer staff for the program, which gives hundreds of New Haven youth the opportunity to get out on the water. Her insights as a coach and mentor during the summer of 2005 helped to create a coaching model that is still in use.
Silberstein, who helped the Yale football team to a 9-1 season last fall, founded the Reading Buddies Program at Clinton Avenue Elementary School, which brought student-athletes to read and mentor children once a week. He also has worked closely with Vincent Mauro Elementary School as well as with two of the department's largest outreach efforts - Bulldog Buddies and the Holiday Gift Giving Initiative.
The Brodhead Award is named in honor of Richard H. Brodhead '68, Ph.D. '72, who served as Dean of Yale College from 1993 through 2004 and was on the faculty of the department of English for over 30 years. The men's tennis team, which had four players earn All-Ivy recognition, received the award with a team GPA of 3.50.

1939 to 1946
Amidst efforts to establish a permanent performing company, Balanchine choreographs for Broadway and the silver screen, earning needed income while providing work for dancers trained at the School. Among his theater and film projects are On Your Toes, I Married an Angel and Goldwyn Follies. Balanchine also choreographs and stages works for the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo during this time, including The Night Shadow (now known as La Sonnambula).
In 1940, SAB initiates a formal scholarship program, and in 1941 a new Children's Divison begins to offer special classes for students aged 8 to 12. Notable new students during this period include the youngsters Tanaquil LeClercq, Jacques d'Amboise and Edward Villella.

Are South Dakota Legislators Suffering from Battered Government Syndrome?
PIERRE - The South Dakota House is working to craft a bill that is meant to spur local economic development. The wording of the bill is changing rapidly, but the upshot is that cities, towns and rural areas would be given the right to offer state funded grants and municipal tax refunds in order to encourage businesses to locate within their boundaries.
There is a big question that no one seems to be asking here: why do we need this? The answer that most would give is that the large project development fund was defeated at the ballot box, leaving the state with no incentive structure after the contractor's excise tax refund program expired at the end of the year. However, that isn't really an answer because it doesn't tell us why we needed either of those programs either.
Perhaps the most malicious myth perpetrated in the last 50 years by Corporate America is that no place is already good enough. To put this into context; at 4.4% the unemployment rate is way below the national average, we are a union-killing "right to work" (for less) state, and perhaps most importantly we have no state level corporate or personal income tax.
Despite all of the above, our elected representatives would have us believe that South Dakota is not attractive enough to businesses as it is. At the same time, they argue that there is no money to make up for previous years' drastic cuts to health care and schools, and no money to accept Medicaid expansion that would be fully funded by the federal government for 3 years and 90% funded after that. Whenever a new progressive idea is floated, you can bet the answer will be "there is no money for that."
However, the lack of funds apparently does not apply to corporate give backs. Today it is state legislators, and after this passes, tomorrow it will be local officials bending over backwards to find ways to refund the already insufficient tax monies to companies who swear they need it or they will locate elsewhere. The whole thing seems like a shakedown.
The willing self-victimization here is appalling. It is akin to a battered spouse making a special meal so their abusive partner won't leave them. At some point these people need to have their bluff called.

The Consultant has a Ph. D, vast experience of high-performance systems architecture, a black belt in karate and a reputation as a genius. He's been brought in by senior management at vast but necessary expense for a strategic rethink of the way data is shared between systems, while implementing SOA, improving performance and finding the Higgs Boson. Needless to say, he tends towards the view that database development is overrated. He's already sorted out the data warehouse. Overheard by our correspondent:
I've finished the design for the data warehouse. Although I say design, it's pretty simple. That's why it was so quick. All data warehouses are essentially the same in that they are a dimensional model. That means that you essentially have everything that is a fact, an immutable fact [waves arms expressively], in the fact table. Just the one, big, table. That's why they're so attractive as reporting solutions - everything is in the same place so it's easy to understand and the reporting is easy to automate. So in that fact table you've got all trades, the cashflows, positions, accounting information, accounts, exceptions, counterparties. Anything that's a fact goes in that table [does wide googly eyes expression with dramatic pause]. Then anything derived is called a dimension, like for instance P&L calculations, whether the account is on balance sheet, or off... they go in the dimension table. Basically all we have to do is just pump messages into that fact table from the bus and then recalculate the dimensions in the dimension table periodically, and that's the technical job. Getting the facts in there and getting the calculations done.

New Orleans has produced more than its share of virtuoso pianists, dating back even before Jelly Roll Morton emerged at the turn of the previous century.
Remarkably, that lineage continues forth through today, nowhere more compellingly than in the work of Henry Butler, who achieves more with 88 keys than most mere mortals. Seated at the piano at SPACE, in Evanston, on Thursday evening, Butler segued easily among a range of jazz and blues techniques, offering a profusion of ideas linked by the fluidity of his technique and the fervency of his expression.
In fact, there may be no better way to hear Butler than alone at a keyboard, the pianist funneling all of that power and joy into a single instrument. The rare opportunity to catch him solo clearly proved attractive to Chicago-area listeners, who packed SPACE on an Arctic evening.
Indoors, the temperature rose just about as soon as Butler placed his fingertips on the keys, with a barreling account of "Rock Island Line." In this single composition, Butler summoned a lexicon of Crescent City piano methods: rumbling left-hand octaves, fast-flying right-hand figurations, deep-into-the-keys chords and rhapsodic phrases that transcended any sense of backbeat.
By constantly changing tempos – and often shifting abruptly from fast to slow and back again – Butler gave the music a storytelling quality that predictably elicited applause at key turning points. In essence, Butler was playing not just the piano but the audience, as New Orleans tradition demands.
The title of "Samba C" clearly suggests Brazilian music, but Butler hardly was confined to the vernacular of a single musical culture. For in addition to the gently swaying rhythms of South America, Butler tapped the flamenco idioms of Spain, the tango syntax of Argentina and the street beats of his native New Orleans. Beyond the rhythmic potpourri, "Samba C" underscored Butler's symphonic approach to the full span of the keyboard: He brought out particular sounds and colors the way a composer would assign themes to specific instruments in an orchestra.
And so it went, each tune conjuring another world of sound.
To salute the 50th anniversary of the Beatles' arrival in the United States, Butler offered a slow-tempo fantasia on "Eleanor Rigby," interrupting its famous phrases with flurries of trills, arpeggios and freely improvised passages. By quoting the funereal rhythm of a movement of Beethoven's Seventh Symphony, Butler brought solemnity and grandeur to his reinvention of the Beatles' opus.
Scott Joplin's "The Entertainer" stands as a milestone in the evolution of American music, but that didn't mean that Butler was going to approach the piece with undue reverence.
"I have to forewarn all the purists in the house that it's not quite the way he wrote it," Butler said by way of introduction. Then he played the opening bars mostly as written before opening up the piece with original material and bravura technique. Joplin, who died in 1917, never would have heard this kind of freewheeling pianism, yet Butler's version stayed true to the ragtime underpinnings of the piece, which is what made his version so persuasive.
And when Butler began singing toward the end of the first set, accompanying his blues-drenched vocal lines with massive piano chords, listeners were hearing a musician of more facets than a single concert could fully contain.

Awesome image Megan – big fan of the books and this design illustrates them beautifully. Good job girl!!
I never thought I'd see a Dark Tower reference here on RB.
This is absolutely AMAZING and extremely creative!
I love this so much. I saw the sideart on teefury, and hunted down this so I can buy it. Just have to wait for an hour or so. But you, my friend, have made a sale!
Thank you so much!! :D I love the Dark Tower, and there aren't too many shirts out there.. felt the need to contribute!
I was given the Gunslinger in 1982 and have since read the series dozens of times. I love your work and bought the Peach shirt on tee fury and saw the side art and had to hunt this shirt down as well.
Awesome Shirt! I love the artwork. Just had to get it.
This shirt is amazing. You did such an awesome job incorporating everything. Definitely the best DT shirt I have seen on all the internet. Purchased!
Oh hell yeah! Love the Dark Tower and this tee!
Awesome design, don't understand the 'since 1999' reference though.
It is "The Keystone Day in the Keystone Year on the Keystone World"
I got this when it was on teefury, LOVE the design! I've been trying to work up a DT design for years, but everything I did ended up looking like a Guns N Roses t-shirt. You nailed it with the beam/guardians circle, I never would've thought of that. :)

i've been following Tavi's new online magazine Rookie – "an online publication for teenage girls featuring writing, photography, illustrations, videos, and more" – since it launched this week …and i'm actually pretty jealous because i wish something as smart as Rookie had existed when i was a teen. readers are in for a treat just going by their list of contributors (many of whom i recognise from flickr and around the internet). one such person is Petra Collins who i posted about earlier this year – she styled & photographed this editorial for Rookie called School Spirit.

While The Voice is a competition all about winning a record deal, the accidental scene stealer lies in the four artists occupying the judges' seat, and for season 5, we'd like to welcome back Christina Aguilera.
With auditions already underway, Blake Shelton, Adam Levine, and returning judges Cee Lo Green and Aguilera began to make the media rounds.
As for her decision to leave the show this past season? Aguilera said that each judge had "different reasons for either needing a season off or sticking around."
For the talented singer, it was simple: "It was about getting back to my roots and being a mom, spending time at home," she said.
From the beginning, creator Mark Burnett intended for the judges' rotation, as all judges are actively working artists. Shakira took over for Aguilera in season 4, and will return during season 6.
Aguilera shares her admiration for Shakira and Usher, the judges who held her the place of her and co-star Green.
See what Christina said about Usher and Shakira's coaching skills and her post-baby body on page 2.

This week they have started in 57th place, 14 places higher than they were rated last week. The Lady Bisons are 18-3 overall, 13-0 in the Atlantic Sun Conference. They have won their last 15 straight matches, with their last loss Sept. 5 against Florida International.
"The RPI is something that everybody can see," said Lady Bisons coach Brandon Rosenthal. "It is very tangible. I think even though we are a small-name program it is tremendous for our players and for the program to be in this category. It means a lot."
Rosenthal warns that there are still several matches to play this season, but he is finding it difficult to hide how proud he is of his team/s accomplishment.
"We talked in preseason and I said then this program could be a top 50 program," said Rosenthal. "I'm not sure if I thought we would get that close this fast.
"We have other goals that kind of come ahead of the RPI. The RPI takes care of itself. This is program that can consistently be in the top 50 range."
Sixty-four teams are invited to the NCAA volleyball tournament, but Rosenthal can't count on a high RPI ranking being enough to qualify the Lady Bisons.
"History is against us," said Rosenthal. "The A-Sun has never had two teams in the NCAA Tournament."
The Lady Bisons are at home this weekend to play Florida Gulf Coast Friday night at 6:30 at Allen Arena and play Stetson Saturday afternoon at 2.
NCAA rankings: The Lady Bisons are ranked fourth in NCAA Division I in both assists per set (13.78) and kills per set (14.9). Texas A & M is first in both categories with 14.28 assists per set and 15.09 kills per set.
The Lady Bisons are 13th with a .857 match won-lost percentage. They are 22nd with a .264 hitting percentage and 28th with a 16.71 digs per set.
Individually, setter Stefine "Jake" Pease is seventh in the nation in assists per set with 11.87. Kaylee Manns of Iowa State is first with 12.28 assists per set.
Middle hitter Alex Kelly is 12th in points per set with 5.16. Burgandy McCurty of Siena is first with 5.96.
Kelly is ranked 17th in kills per set with 4.43. McCurty is also first in that category with 5.34.

Seattle also looks alright, especially with Wilkins and Wally playing well. If they get both Collison and Wilcox working the inside fairly well and have Wally, Wilkins and Durant playing well also, with their passing PGs Ridnour and Watson doing their job, they could surprise everyone. They need to stay healthy ofcourse and Wally for one just doesn't do that anymore
Seattle should tank the season since the very first game. They have a nice foundation for a good team there... but don't have enough talent to win consistently.
Barring injuries, they have enough talent in the right places to win at least 30 games, not that that is anything great but they are not that bad. Thing is, injuries always happen and Wally, a major player for them for them to have a chance of being a winner, is always injured
I agree with that. Seattle's main issue is obviously inexperience, as their core right now is rookies (Durant and Green), who could possibly do something in a couple years. Wally won't be effective on the Sonics because they don't have an offensive big (I don't consider Durant because his main weapon is his perimeter/shooting) to draw double teams.
I think Wally can still be a very good player and with good rebounding and defending bigs, like Wilcox and Collison, along with another good scorer, like Durant, he can be real good again. Ridnour and Watson are very good playmakers and that rounds out a possibly good team
