Take the body kit off the Dodge Avenger concept and what do you get? If you said "my next rental at Dallas—Fort Worth" you'd be partially right. It's the production Dodge Avenger, caught testing ahead of the Detroit auto show, where it's expected to debut ahead of a quickie rush to dealers by early '07. If you've been in a wormhole for the past year, you may not know the Avenger is the Stratus replacement and cousin of the new Chrysler Sebring. Don't worry sport-o, an R/T version is planned.

Rox ride power, Francis to home opener win
DENVER -- Good old times prevailed in the Coors Field opener Friday afternoon.
The club honored the 1993 inaugural team as part of a 20th anniversary celebration, and today's club upheld the Rockies' power-hitting tradition with home runs by Wilin Rosario and Dexter Fowler. But it was pitcher Jeff Francis who reminded a sellout crowd of 49,077 that he's still one of the best in club history to pitch in the hitters' park during Colorado's 5-2 win against the Padres.
With the Rockies coming off a 98-loss season last year, the fans are enjoying this early morsel of success. The 3-1 record marks just the seventh time in 21 seasons that the club has won at least three of its first four games.
The beloved, if overmatched, 1993 team grew into the Blake Street Bombers and made it to the postseason in their third year of existence. Rosario and Fowler's round-trippers brought the team's four-game homer total to 10, as the Rockies are living up to new manager and one-time Bomber Walt Weiss' monicker, the Blake Street Bullies.
But can a soft-tossing left-hander be a bully?
Francis gave up a first-inning run on Jesus Guzman's two-out broken-bat single, then finished with a line of one run on five hits, with five strikeouts in six innings. He did it with a slower-than-molasses curve and changeup to make his fastball almost look fast.
"From the first inning, I was hitting the glove," Francis said. "I gave up a run in the first, but it was an infield single and a broken-bat hit. I knew that I was throwing the ball the way that I was expecting to, and it was probably only a matter of time before our guys started scoring runs."
The veteran Francis (1-0), who was drafted by the Rockies in 2002 and, except for 2011 with the Royals, has been in purple pinstripes ever since, improved to 34-26 at Coors Field. Only Aaron Cook's 36 wins at Coors exceed Francis' total.
Francis never had blazing velocity, and shoulder problems a few years back reduced what he had, but his slow stuff can perplex hitters.
"I always have confidence in Jeff that he can wiggle his way through stuff if he starts to get some traffic or things start to happen out there," Weiss said. "He's really good at dictating at-bats."
Francis struck out top Padres rookie Jedd Gyrko three times, the first two on curveballs of 65 and 69 mph, the last on a 76 mph changeup. The second strikeout ended the third with runners at the corners. Francis finished his 97-pitch outing by mustering an 86 mph fastball to fan Nick Hundley.
"It was mixing speed, a lot of slow and up to 90 mph, and he had a good curveball," Padres manager Bud Black said. "That was one of the best curveballs I've seen from him in years."
A Rockies starting rotation that had the Majors' highest ERA and lowest innings pitched last season has turned in quality starts -- six or more innings, three or fewer earned runs -- in three of the season's first four games.
"We've shown, at least in four games, what we focused on in Spring Training -- staying ahead of guys, putting the pressure on the hitter to make contact," Francis said.
Chris Nelson singled to open the third and scored when Padres shortstop Everth Cabrera let Josh Rutledge's two-out grounder bounce off the heel of his glove for an error. Troy Tulowitzki followed with a two-run double off Padres starter Jason Marquis (0-1), a one-time Rockies pitcher who was charged with five runs (two earned), to improve his season RBI total to six.
"You've got to capitalize on mistakes in this game," Tulowitzki said. "Good teams do that, and good teams don't make mistakes so the other can capitalize."
Rosario homered for the second time in as many games with one out in the fourth. He crushed a slider after he had swung over the same pitch from Marquis to start the at-bat.
Fowler, whose 13 homers last year represented a career high, opened the fifth with his third homer, which went off the façade of the second deck in right.
"I feel relaxed," Fowler said. "That's huge. When you step into the box you want to see pitches, and I'm tracking pitches well."
Rosario, who might not hit seventh for long, said having a group of veteran hitters in front of him helps.
"Those guys show me -- I can see the good pitches the pitcher throws for them, then I can learn and make adjustments, ask a lot of questions," Rosario said.
Rockies reliever Adam Ottavino gave up an unearned run on one hit in his two innings, and Rafael Betancourt earned his second save.

Well our computer is old (by technology standards--it's still new to me, only 6 yrs old), so the scanner my friend gave us will not work with this useless thing. (The computer does not have the right port or whatever.)
Soooooo I am still trying to get up a photo of me with Cy at the concert at the Magicbag in Ferndale Michigan a few years ago. I had the most ridiculous, biggest grin on my face.
Anyway--what I wanted to ask anyone is how do you become a fixxture? I've been on the mailing list since about '97 and on this forum since 2000. Not a big deal--------just curious, as I've been a Fixxture for 20 years now!!!
Good grief has it been that long?

Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Vol. 2, by Edward Gibbon, [1781], at sacred-texts.com
Such was the rise and progress, and such were the natural revolutions of those theological disputes, which disturbed the peace of Christianity under the reigns of Constantine and of his sons. But as those princes presumed to extend their despotism over the faith, as well as over the lives and fortunes, of their subjects, the weight of their suffrage sometimes inclined the ecclesiastical balance: and the prerogatives of the King of Heaven were settled, or changed, or modified, in the cabinet of an earthly monarch. The unhappy spirit of discord which pervaded the provinces of the East, interrupted the triumph of Constantine; but the emperor continued for some time to view, with cool and careless indifference, the object of the dispute. As he was yet ignorant of the difficulty of appeasing the quarrels of theologians, he addressed to the contending parties, to Alexander and to Arius, a moderating epistle; 77 which may be ascribed, with far greater reason, to the untutored sense of a soldier and statesman, than to the dictates of any of his episcopal counsellors. He attributes the origin of the whole controversy to a trifling and subtle question, concerning an incomprehensible point of law, which was foolishly asked by the bishop, and imprudently resolved by the presbyter. He laments that the Christian people, who had the same God, the same religion, and the same worship, should be divided by such inconsiderable distinctions; and he seriously recommend to the clergy of Alexandria the example of the Greek philosophers; who could maintain their arguments without losing their temper, and assert their freedom without violating their friendship. The indifference and contempt of the sovereign would have been, perhaps, the most effectual method of silencing the dispute, if the popular current had been less rapid and impetuous, and if Constantine himself, in the midst of faction and fanaticism, could have preserved the calm possession of his own mind. But his ecclesiastical ministers soon contrived to seduce the impartiality of the magistrate, and to awaken the zeal of the proselyte. He was provoked by the insults which had been offered to his statues; he was alarmed by the real, as well as the imaginary magnitude of the spreading mischief; and he extinguished the hope of peace and toleration, from the moment that he assembled three hundred bishops within the walls of the same palace. The presence of the monarch swelled the importance of the debate; his attention multiplied the arguments; and he exposed his person with a patient intrepidity, which animated the valor of the combatants. Notwithstanding the applause which has been bestowed on the eloquence and sagacity of Constantine, 78 a Roman general, whose religion might be still a subject of doubt, and whose mind had not been enlightened either by study or by inspiration, was indifferently qualified to discuss, in the Greek language, a metaphysical question, or an article of faith. But the credit of his favorite Osius, who appears to have presided in the council of Nice, might dispose the emperor in favor of the orthodox party; and a well-timed insinuation, that the same Eusebius of Nicomedia, who now protected the heretic, had lately assisted the tyrant, 79 might exasperate him against their adversaries. The Nicene creed was ratified by Constantine; and his firm declaration, that those who resisted the divine judgment of the synod, must prepare themselves for an immediate exile, annihilated the murmurs of a feeble opposition; which, from seventeen, was almost instantly reduced to two, protesting bishops. Eusebius of Caesarea yielded a reluctant and ambiguous consent to the Homoousion; 80 and the wavering conduct of the Nicomedian Eusebius served only to delay, about three months, his disgrace and exile. 81 The impious Arius was banished into one of the remote provinces of Illyricum; his person and disciples were branded by law with the odious name of Porphyrians; his writings were condemned to the flames, and a capital punishment was denounced against those in whose possession they should be found. The emperor had now imbibed the spirit of controversy, and the angry, sarcastic style of his edicts was designed to inspire his subjects with the hatred which he had conceived against the enemies of Christ. 82
But, as if the conduct of the emperor had been guided by passion instead of principle, three years from the council of Nice were scarcely elapsed before he discovered some symptoms of mercy, and even of indulgence, towards the proscribed sect, which was secretly protected by his favorite sister. The exiles were recalled, and Eusebius, who gradually resumed his influence over the mind of Constantine, was restored to the episcopal throne, from which he had been ignominiously degraded. Arius himself was treated by the whole court with the respect which would have been due to an innocent and oppressed man. His faith was approved by the synod of Jerusalem; and the emperor seemed impatient to repair his injustice, by issuing an absolute command, that he should be solemnly admitted to the communion in the cathedral of Constantinople. On the same day, which had been fixed for the triumph of Arius, he expired; and the strange and horrid circumstances of his death might excite a suspicion, that the orthodox saints had contributed more efficaciously than by their prayers, to deliver the church from the most formidable of her enemies. 83 The three principal leaders of the Catholics, Athanasius of Alexandria, Eustathius of Antioch, and Paul of Constantinople were deposed on various f accusations, by the sentence of numerous councils; and were afterwards banished into distant provinces by the first of the Christian emperors, who, in the last moments of his life, received the rites of baptism from the Arian bishop of Nicomedia. The ecclesiastical government of Constantine cannot be justified from the reproach of levity and weakness. But the credulous monarch, unskilled in the stratagems of theological warfare, might be deceived by the modest and specious professions of the heretics, whose sentiments he never perfectly understood; and while he protected Arius, and persecuted Athanasius, he still considered the council of Nice as the bulwark of the Christian faith, and the peculiar glory of his own reign. 84
The sons of Constantine must have been admitted from their childhood into the rank of catechumens; but they imitated, in the delay of their baptism, the example of their father. Like him they presumed to pronounce their judgment on mysteries into which they had never been regularly initiated; 85 and the fate of the Trinitarian controversy depended, in a great measure, on the sentiments of Constantius; who inherited the provinces of the East, and acquired the possession of the whole empire. The Arian presbyter or bishop, who had secreted for his use the testament of the deceased emperor, improved the fortunate occasion which had introduced him to the familiarity of a prince, whose public counsels were always swayed by his domestic favorites. The eunuchs and slaves diffused the spiritual poison through the palace, and the dangerous infection was communicated by the female attendants to the guards, and by the empress to her unsuspicious husband. 86 The partiality which Constantius always expressed towards the Eusebian faction, was insensibly fortified by the dexterous management of their leaders; and his victory over the tyrant Magnentius increased his inclination, as well as ability, to employ the arms of power in the cause of Arianism. While the two armies were engaged in the plains of Mursa, and the fate of the two rivals depended on the chance of war, the son of Constantine passed the anxious moments in a church of the martyrs under the walls of the city. His spiritual comforter, Valens, the Arian bishop of the diocese, employed the most artful precautions to obtain such early intelligence as might secure either his favor or his escape. A secret chain of swift and trusty messengers informed him of the vicissitudes of the battle; and while the courtiers stood trembling round their affrighted master, Valens assured him that the Gallic legions gave way; and insinuated with some presence of mind, that the glorious event had been revealed to him by an angel. The grateful emperor ascribed his success to the merits and intercession of the bishop of Mursa, whose faith had deserved the public and miraculous approbation of Heaven. 87 The Arians, who considered as their own the victory of Constantius, preferred his glory to that of his father. 88 Cyril, bishop of Jerusalem, immediately composed the description of a celestial cross, encircled with a splendid rainbow; which during the festival of Pentecost, about the third hour of the day, had appeared over the Mount of Olives, to the edification of the devout pilgrims, and the people of the holy city. 89 The size of the meteor was gradually magnified; and the Arian historian has ventured to affirm, that it was conspicuous to the two armies in the plains of Pannonia; and that the tyrant, who is purposely represented as an idolater, fled before the auspicious sign of orthodox Christianity. 90
The sentiments of a judicious stranger, who has impartially considered the progress of civil or ecclesiastical discord, are always entitled to our notice; and a short passage of Ammianus, who served in the armies, and studied the character of Constantius, is perhaps of more value than many pages of theological invectives. "The Christian religion, which, in itself," says that moderate historian, "is plain and simple, he confounded by the dotage of superstition. Instead of reconciling the parties by the weight of his authority, he cherished and promulgated, by verbal disputes, the differences which his vain curiosity had excited. The highways were covered with troops of bishops galloping from every side to the assemblies, which they call synods; and while they labored to reduce the whole sect to their own particular opinions, the public establishment of the posts was almost ruined by their hasty and repeated journeys." 91 Our more intimate knowledge of the ecclesiastical transactions of the reign of Constantius would furnish an ample commentary on this remarkable passage, which justifies the rational apprehensions of Athanasius, that the restless activity of the clergy, who wandered round the empire in search of the true faith, would excite the contempt and laughter of the unbelieving world. 92 As soon as the emperor was relieved from the terrors of the civil war, he devoted the leisure of his winter quarters at Arles, Milan, Sirmium, and Constantinople, to the amusement or toils of controversy: the sword of the magistrate, and even of the tyrant, was unsheathed, to enforce the reasons of the theologian; and as he opposed the orthodox faith of Nice, it is readily confessed that his incapacity and ignorance were equal to his presumption. 93 The eunuchs, the women, and the bishops, who governed the vain and feeble mind of the emperor, had inspired him with an insuperable dislike to the Homoousion; but his timid conscience was alarmed by the impiety of Aetius. The guilt of that atheist was aggravated by the suspicious favor of the unfortunate Gallus; and even the death of the Imperial ministers, who had been massacred at Antioch, were imputed to the suggestions of that dangerous sophist. The mind of Constantius, which could neither be moderated by reason, nor fixed by faith, was blindly impelled to either side of the dark and empty abyss, by his horror of the opposite extreme; he alternately embraced and condemned the sentiments, he successively banished and recalled the leaders, of the Arian and Semi-Arian factions. 94 During the season of public business or festivity, he employed whole days, and even nights, in selecting the words, and weighing the syllables, which composed his fluctuating creeds. The subject of his meditations still pursued and occupied his slumbers: the incoherent dreams of the emperor were received as celestial visions, and he accepted with complacency the lofty title of bishop of bishops, from those ecclesiastics who forgot the interest of their order for the gratification of their passions. The design of establishing a uniformity of doctrine, which had engaged him to convene so many synods in Gaul, Italy, Illyricum, and Asia, was repeatedly baffled by his own levity, by the divisions of the Arians, and by the resistance of the Catholics; and he resolved, as the last and decisive effort, imperiously to dictate the decrees of a general council. The destructive earthquake of Nicomedia, the difficulty of finding a convenient place, and perhaps some secret motives of policy, produced an alteration in the summons. The bishops of the East were directed to meet at Seleucia, in Isauria; while those of the West held their deliberations at Rimini, on the coast of the Hadriatic; and instead of two or three deputies from each province, the whole episcopal body was ordered to march. The Eastern council, after consuming four days in fierce and unavailing debate, separated without any definitive conclusion. The council of the West was protracted till the seventh month. Taurus, the Praetorian praefect was instructed not to dismiss the prelates till they should all be united in the same opinion; and his efforts were supported by the power of banishing fifteen of the most refractory, and a promise of the consulship if he achieved so difficult an adventure. His prayers and threats, the authority of the sovereign, the sophistry of Valens and Ursacius, the distress of cold and hunger, and the tedious melancholy of a hopeless exile, at length extorted the reluctant consent of the bishops of Rimini. The deputies of the East and of the West attended the emperor in the palace of Constantinople, and he enjoyed the satisfaction of imposing on the world a profession of faith which established the likeness, without expressing the consubstantiality, of the Son of God. 95 But the triumph of Arianism had been preceded by the removal of the orthodox clergy, whom it was impossible either to intimidate or to corrupt; and the reign of Constantius was disgraced by the unjust and ineffectual persecution of the great Athanasius.
We have seldom an opportunity of observing, either in active or speculative life, what effect may be produced, or what obstacles may be surmounted, by the force of a single mind, when it is inflexibly applied to the pursuit of a single object. The immortal name of Athanasius 96 will never be separated from the Catholic doctrine of the Trinity, to whose defence he consecrated every moment and every faculty of his being. Educated in the family of Alexander, he had vigorously opposed the early progress of the Arian heresy: he exercised the important functions of secretary under the aged prelate; and the fathers of the Nicene council beheld with surprise and respect the rising virtues of the young deacon. In a time of public danger, the dull claims of age and of rank are sometimes superseded; and within five months after his return from Nice, the deacon Athanasius was seated on the archiepiscopal throne of Egypt. He filled that eminent station above forty-six years, and his long administration was spent in a perpetual combat against the powers of Arianism. Five times was Athanasius expelled from his throne; twenty years he passed as an exile or a fugitive: and almost every province of the Roman empire was successively witness to his merit, and his sufferings in the cause of the Homoousion, which he considered as the sole pleasure and business, as the duty, and as the glory of his life. Amidst the storms of persecution, the archbishop of Alexandria was patient of labor, jealous of fame, careless of safety; and although his mind was tainted by the contagion of fanaticism, Athanasius displayed a superiority of character and abilities, which would have qualified him, far better than the degenerate sons of Constantine, for the government of a great monarchy. His learning was much less profound and extensive than that of Eusebius of Caesarea, and his rude eloquence could not be compared with the polished oratory of Gregory of Basil; but whenever the primate of Egypt was called upon to justify his sentiments, or his conduct, his unpremeditated style, either of speaking or writing, was clear, forcible, and persuasive. He has always been revered, in the orthodox school, as one of the most accurate masters of the Christian theology; and he was supposed to possess two profane sciences, less adapted to the episcopal character, the knowledge of jurisprudence, 97 and that of divination. 98 Some fortunate conjectures of future events, which impartial reasoners might ascribe to the experience and judgment of Athanasius, were attributed by his friends to heavenly inspiration, and imputed by his enemies to infernal magic.
But as Athanasius was continually engaged with the prejudices and passions of every order of men, from the monk to the emperor, the knowledge of human nature was his first and most important science. He preserved a distinct and unbroken view of a scene which was incessantly shifting; and never failed to improve those decisive moments which are irrecoverably past before they are perceived by a common eye. The archbishop of Alexandria was capable of distinguishing how far he might boldly command, and where he must dexterously insinuate; how long he might contend with power, and when he must withdraw from persecution; and while he directed the thunders of the church against heresy and rebellion, he could assume, in the bosom of his own party, the flexible and indulgent temper of a prudent leader. The election of Athanasius has not escaped the reproach of irregularity and precipitation; 99 but the propriety of his behavior conciliated the affections both of the clergy and of the people. The Alexandrians were impatient to rise in arms for the defence of an eloquent and liberal pastor. In his distress he always derived support, or at least consolation, from the faithful attachment of his parochial clergy; and the hundred bishops of Egypt adhered, with unshaken zeal, to the cause of Athanasius. In the modest equipage which pride and policy would affect, he frequently performed the episcopal visitation of his provinces, from the mouth of the Nile to the confines of Aethiopia; familiarly conversing with the meanest of the populace, and humbly saluting the saints and hermits of the desert. 100 Nor was it only in ecclesiastical assemblies, among men whose education and manners were similar to his own, that Athanasius displayed the ascendancy of his genius. He appeared with easy and respectful firmness in the courts of princes; and in the various turns of his prosperous and adverse fortune he never lost the confidence of his friends, or the esteem of his enemies.
In his youth, the primate of Egypt resisted the great Constantine, who had repeatedly signified his will, that Arius should be restored to the Catholic communion. 101 The emperor respected, and might forgive, this inflexible resolution; and the faction who considered Athanasius as their most formidable enemy, was constrained to dissemble their hatred, and silently to prepare an indirect and distant assault. They scattered rumors and suspicions, represented the archbishop as a proud and oppressive tyrant, and boldly accused him of violating the treaty which had been ratified in the Nicene council, with the schismatic followers of Meletius. 102 Athanasius had openly disapproved that ignominious peace, and the emperor was disposed to believe that he had abused his ecclesiastical and civil power, to prosecute those odious sectaries: that he had sacrilegiously broken a chalice in one of their churches of Mareotis; that he had whipped or imprisoned six of their bishops; and that Arsenius, a seventh bishop of the same party, had been murdered, or at least mutilated, by the cruel hand of the primate. 103 These charges, which affected his honor and his life, were referred by Constantine to his brother Dalmatius the censor, who resided at Antioch; the synods of Caesarea and Tyre were successively convened; and the bishops of the East were instructed to judge the cause of Athanasius, before they proceeded to consecrate the new church of the Resurrection at Jerusalem. The primate might be conscious of his innocence; but he was sensible that the same implacable spirit which had dictated the accusation, would direct the proceeding, and pronounce the sentence. He prudently declined the tribunal of his enemies; despised the summons of the synod of Caesarea; and, after a long and artful delay, submitted to the peremptory commands of the emperor, who threatened to punish his criminal disobedience if he refused to appear in the council of Tyre. 104 Before Athanasius, at the head of fifty Egyptian prelates, sailed from Alexandria, he had wisely secured the alliance of the Meletians; and Arsenius himself, his imaginary victim, and his secret friend, was privately concealed in his train. The synod of Tyre was conducted by Eusebius of Caesarea, with more passion, and with less art, than his learning and experience might promise; his numerous faction repeated the names of homicide and tyrant; and their clamors were encouraged by the seeming patience of Athanasius, who expected the decisive moment to produce Arsenius alive and unhurt in the midst of the assembly. The nature of the other charges did not admit of such clear and satisfactory replies; yet the archbishop was able to prove, that in the village, where he was accused of breaking a consecrated chalice, neither church nor altar nor chalice could really exist. The Arians, who had secretly determined the guilt and condemnation of their enemy, attempted, however, to disguise their injustice by the imitation of judicial forms: the synod appointed an episcopal commission of six delegates to collect evidence on the spot; and this measure which was vigorously opposed by the Egyptian bishops, opened new scenes of violence and perjury. 105 After the return of the deputies from Alexandria, the majority of the council pronounced the final sentence of degradation and exile against the primate of Egypt. The decree, expressed in the fiercest language of malice and revenge, was communicated to the emperor and the Catholic church; and the bishops immediately resumed a mild and devout aspect, such as became their holy pilgrimage to the Sepulchre of Christ. 106
77 Eusebius, in Vit. Constant. l. ii. c. 64-72. The principles of toleration and religious indifference, contained in this epistle, have given great offence to Baronius, Tillemont, &c., who suppose that the emperor had some evil counsellor, either Satan or Eusebius, at his elbow. See Cortin's Remarks, tom. ii. p. 183.
Note: Heinichen (Excursus xi.) quotes with approbation the term "golden words," applied by Ziegler to this moderate and tolerant letter of Constantine. May an English clergyman venture to express his regret that "the fine gold soon became dim" in the Christian church? - M.
78 Eusebius in Vit. Constantin. l. iii. c. 13.
79 Theodoret has preserved (l. i. c. 20) an epistle from Constantine to the people of Nicomedia, in which the monarch declares himself the public accuser of one of his subjects; he styles Eusebius and complains of his hostile behavior during the civil war.
80 See in Socrates, (l. i. c. 8,) or rather in Theodoret, (l. i. c. 12,) an original letter of Eusebius of Caesarea, in which he attempts to justify his subscribing the Homoousion. The character of Eusebius has always been a problem; but those who have read the second critical epistle of Le Clerc, (Ars Critica, tom. iii. p. 30-69,) must entertain a very unfavorable opinion of the orthodoxy and sincerity of the bishop of Caesarea.
81 Athanasius, tom. i. p. 727. Philostorgius, l. i. c. 10, and Godefroy's Commentary, p. 41.
82 Socrates, l. i. c. 9. In his circular letters, which were addressed to the several cities, Constantine employed against the heretics the arms of ridicule and comic raillery.
83 We derive the original story from Athanasius, (tom. i. p. 670,) who expresses some reluctance to stigmatize the memory of the dead. He might exaggerate; but the perpetual commerce of Alexandria and Constantinople would have rendered it dangerous to invent. Those who press the literal narrative of the death of Arius (his bowels suddenly burst out in a privy) must make their option between poison and miracle.
84 The change in the sentiments, or at least in the conduct, of Constantine, may be traced in Eusebius, (in Vit. Constant. l. iii. c. 23, l. iv. c. 41,) Socrates, (l. i. c. 23-39,) Sozomen, (l. ii. c. 16-34,) Theodoret, (l. i. c. 14-34,) and Philostorgius, (l. ii. c. 1-17.) But the first of these writers was too near the scene of action, and the others were too remote from it. It is singular enough, that the important task of continuing the history of the church should have been left for two laymen and a heretic.
85 Quia etiam tum catechumenus sacramentum fidei merito videretiu potuisse nescire. Sulp. Sever. Hist. Sacra, l. ii. p. 410.
86 Socrates, l. ii. c. 2. Sozomen, l. iii. c. 18. Athanas. tom. i. p. 813, 834. He observes that the eunuchs are the natural enemies of the Son. Compare Dr. Jortin's Remarks on Ecclesiastical History, vol. iv. p. 3 with a certain genealogy in Candide, (ch. iv.,) which ends with one of the first companions of Christopher Columbus.
87 Sulpicius Severus in Hist. Sacra, l. ii. p. 405, 406.
88 Cyril (apud Baron. A. D. 353, No. 26) expressly observes that in the reign of Constantine, the cross had been found in the bowels of the earth; but that it had appeared, in the reign of Constantius, in the midst of the heavens. This opposition evidently proves, that Cyril was ignorant of the stupendous miracle to which the conversion of Constantine is attributed; and this ignorance is the more surprising, since it was no more than twelve years after his death that Cyril was consecrated bishop of Jerusalem, by the immediate successor of Eusebius of Caesarea. See Tillemont, Mem. Eccles. tom. viii. p. 715.
89 It is not easy to determine how far the ingenuity of Cyril might be assisted by some natural appearances of a solar halo.
90 Philostorgius, l. iii. c. 26. He is followed by the author of the Alexandrian Chronicle, by Cedrenus, and by Nicephorus. See Gothofred. Dissert. p. 188.) They could not refuse a miracle, even from the hand of an enemy.
91 So curious a passage well deserves to be transcribed. Christianam religionem absolutam et simplicem, anili superstitione confundens; in qua scrutanda perplexius, quam componenda gravius excitaret discidia plurima; quae progressa fusius aluit concertatione verborum, ut catervis antistium jumentis publicis ultro citroque discarrentibus, per synodos (quas appellant) dum ritum omnem ad suum sahere conantur (Valesius reads conatur) rei vehiculariae concideret servos. Ammianus, xxi. 16.
92 Athanas. tom. i. p. 870.
93 Socrates, l. ii. c. 35-47. Sozomen, l. iv. c. 12-30. Theodore li. c. 18-32. Philostorg. l. iv. c. 4 - 12, l. v. c. 1-4, l. vi. c. 1-5
94 Sozomen, l. iv. c. 23. Athanas. tom. i. p. 831. Tillemont (Mem Eccles. tom. vii. p. 947) has collected several instances of the haughty fanaticism of Constantius from the detached treatises of Lucifer of Cagliari. The very titles of these treaties inspire zeal and terror; "Moriendum pro Dei Filio." "De Regibus Apostaticis." "De non conveniendo cum Haeretico." "De non parcendo in Deum delinquentibus."
95 Sulp. Sever. Hist. Sacra, l. ii. p. 418-430. The Greek historians were very ignorant of the affairs of the West.
96 We may regret that Gregory Nazianzen composed a panegyric instead of a life of Athanasius; but we should enjoy and improve the advantage of drawing our most authentic materials from the rich fund of his own epistles and apologies, (tom. i. p. 670-951.) I shall not imitate the example of Socrates, (l. ii. c. l.) who published the first edition of the history, without giving himself the trouble to consult the writings of Athanasius. Yet even Socrates, the more curious Sozomen, and the learned Theodoret, connect the life of Athanasius with the series of ecclesiastical history. The diligence of Tillemont, (tom. viii,) and of the Benedictine editors, has collected every fact, and examined every difficulty
97 Sulpicius Severus (Hist. Sacra, l. ii. p. 396) calls him a lawyer, a jurisconsult. This character cannot now be discovered either in the life or writings of Athanasius.
98 Dicebatur enim fatidicarum sortium fidem, quaeve augurales portenderent alites scientissime callens aliquoties praedixisse futura. Ammianus, xv. 7. A prophecy, or rather a joke, is related by Sozomen, (l. iv c. 10,) which evidently proves (if the crows speak Latin) that Athanasius understood the language of the crows.
99 The irregular ordination of Athanasius was slightly mentioned in the councils which were held against him. See Philostorg. l. ii. c. 11, and Godefroy, p. 71; but it can scarcely be supposed that the assembly of the bishops of Egypt would solemnly attest a public falsehood. Athanas. tom. i. p. 726.
100 See the history of the Fathers of the Desert, published by Rosweide; and Tillemont, Mem. Eccles. tom. vii., in the lives of Antony, Pachomius, &c. Athanasius himself, who did not disdain to compose the life of his friend Antony, has carefully observed how often the holy monk deplored and prophesied the mischiefs of the Arian heresy Athanas. tom. ii. p. 492, 498, &c.
101 At first Constantine threatened in speaking, but requested in writing. His letters gradually assumed a menacing tone; by while he required that the entrance of the church should be open to all, he avoided the odious name of Arius. Athanasius, like a skilful politician, has accurately marked these distinctions, (tom. i. p. 788.) which allowed him some scope for excuse and delay
102 The Meletians in Egypt, like the Donatists in Africa, were produced by an episcopal quarrel which arose from the persecution. I have not leisure to pursue the obscure controversy, which seems to have been misrepresented by the partiality of Athanasius and the ignorance of Epiphanius. See Mosheim's General History of the Church, vol. i. p. 201.
103 The treatment of the six bishops is specified by Sozomen, (l. ii. c. 25;) but Athanasius himself, so copious on the subject of Arsenius and the chalice, leaves this grave accusation without a reply. Note: This grave charge, if made, (and it rests entirely on the authority of Soz omen,) seems to have been silently dropped by the parties themselves: it is never alluded to in the subsequent investigations. From Sozomen himself, who gives the unfavorable report of the commission of inquiry sent to Egypt concerning the cup. it does not appear that they noticed this accusation of personal violence. - M
104 Athanas, tom. i. p. 788. Socrates, l. i.c. 28. Sozomen, l. ii. c 25. The emperor, in his Epistle of Convocation, (Euseb. in Vit. Constant. l. iv. c. 42,) seems to prejudge some members of the clergy and it was more than probable that the synod would apply those reproaches to Athanasius.
105 See, in particular, the second Apology of Athanasius, (tom. i. p. 763-808,) and his Epistles to the Monks, (p. 808-866.) They are justified by original and authentic documents; but they would inspire more confidence if he appeared less innocent, and his enemies less absurd.
106 Eusebius in Vit. Constantin. l. iv. c. 41-47.

Katie Holmes didn't let the hubbub over her divorce from Tom Cruise prevent her from getting to work Monday, when she shot a "Project Runway: All Stars" episode as a guest judge.
The actress, who filed for divorce from Hollywood's biggest Scientologist on Friday, spent six hours filming an episode of Lifetime's fashion designer competition show, a spin-off of the original ongoing "Project Runway," on Monday, The Hollywood Reporter reported.
"She did great," one of her fellow judges, designer Isaac Mizrahi, told People magazine of her stint guest-judging for the show. The magazine reported that Holmes was not wearing her wedding ring.
The 10th season of "Project Runway" debuts July 19, but an air date for the show Katie Holmes is on hasn't yet been set, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Holmes filed for divorce on Friday in New York, citing irreconcilable differences and seeking sole custody of daughter Suri. The split has triggered a storm of speculation as to the reasons for the divorce.

1934 Plymouth Fatman Clip Installation - Fat Reduction
Installing A Fatman Clip On A '34 Plymouth Is Smooth Sailing
Until recent years, the established method to attain independent front suspension was to weld a front clip from another vehicle under your stock chassis, usually a Mustang II crossmember, GM subframe, or similar. However, some cars have chassis that don't allow a simple Mustang II installation, yet are too narrow for a GM subframe. Fatman Fabrications builds clips that allow a 2- to 4-inch drop and include premade mounts for bumpers, sheetmetal, and usually radiator core supports.
As well as common models, Fatman offers these clips for a huge variety of vehicles, including Plymouths, DeSotos, Packards, and Studebakers, and is constantly adding more to the range, so call and check to see whether they offer an off-the-shelf clip for your project. Even if they don't, they can fabricate one from supplied dimensions. (Check out www.fatmanfab.com for more information.) The advantages of installing a Mustang II-based IFS are many, including modern disc brakes, conventional coil or air springs, modern telescopic shock absorbers, a choice of bolt patterns, and rack-and-pinion steering, either manual or power assisted.
While the subject of this article is a '34 Plymouth coupe, the installation technique applies to any similar vehicle, so don't pass this story by just because it features a Plymouth! Likewise, we'll not dwell too long on the actual suspension assembly, as that's pretty straightforward and is comprehensively covered in the instructions supplied, but rather concentrate on the adaptation of the new clip to the Plymouth's framerails.
It's necessary to remove the engine, transmission, and all front sheetmetal from any car receiving a front clip swap, then level the chassis side to side and front to rear. It's also vital to ensure the frame doesn't move throughout the procedure. Fatman's instructions recommend using a plumb bob to drop from the bumper mounts, the center of the kingpins, and the front body mounts to the floor, and mark these positions so they can be referred to later, ensuring the new clip is aligned. However, the Plymouth, and its replacement clip, use substantial radiator core support holes. The guys at Circle City Hot Rods, who installed this clip, elected to fabricate a temporary jig, welded to the chassis behind where it would be cut, to use these holes for alignment.
From there it was simply a matter of following the instructions, with measurements unique to each vehicle, to mark and remove the old clip and install the new. While cutting off the front of a perfectly "good" chassis may fill some with dread, the instructions are clear, the procedure is straightforward, and anyone with competent welding skills should be able to complete the swap in a weekend. Follow along as we show you how the boys at Circle City Hot Rods did it.

Antonio Cromartie went on a cursing spree at Tom Brady. Terrell Suggs sent a giant middle finger to Pittsburgh. Finally, players who give us what we want.
What kind of a guy is Tom Brady, Cromartie was asked by a Daily News scribe who probably couldn't believe his luck. The answer: "An asshole. Fuck him." Suggs livened up another boring post-practice press conference with his custom made t-shirt and eminently quotable comments about Pittsburgh. Instant back page headlines for the papers, instant story with inevitable follow-ups, and gold for editors and readers with a week to fill talking about a single game.
Leitch's take on this was spot on, in that we as fans want our players to be as emotionally invested in these games as we are. But there's more to it than that. Players like Cromartie and Suggs aren't just unusually honest. They're media-savvy too.
The quid pro quo has always existed, but athletes understand the benefits of good press coverage on a higher level. Twenty years ago, I doubt they subscribed to the local paper. Now, you can be sure they're at least Googling their own name. And they've figured out that if you give them news to fill the bottomless pit that is today's newshole, you'll generally get treated right. Not that the writers will necessarily protect you, but they'll certainly give you a pulpit when you want one.
And that's perfectly all right. Never mind the legitimacy of the venom; trash talking and predictions and words of hate make for great hype and a better game. The NFL is already a spectacle, so credit the actors who get that and play along.

Paris Hilton told PopcornBiz she's plotting a return to her roots, and we're talking TV, not hair.
The former reality show star is looking to get back into the TV genre that just won't go away.
"I'm working on my new TV show right now," Hilton told PopcornBiz at the Chagoury Couture fashion show.
She's keeping the details secret even if she didn't deny that it was going to be a reality show. "I can't give the details, since we haven't pitched it yet to anyone," she says. "It's going to be a surprise."
Perhaps a reunion with her "The Simple Life" co-star Nicole Richie? "We'll see what happens," she says.
Unlike every other new reality show, she said it would have nothing to do with the state of Alaska. "I'm going to stay in L.A.," she says.
She promises full details will be out soon.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A judge's ruling has revealed a heated legal custody battle between Sarah Palin's daughter and the father of her grandson.
Bristol Palin's request to keep the proceedings closed was denied last week by a Superior Court judge. A temporary order had authorized the use of pseudonyms while the court was considering the request, which stated that no good "could result to the child by an onslaught of media."
Levi Johnston, the father of 1-year-old Tripp, has pushed for open court proceedings, saying he "just wants a simple case on the merits."
"I do not feel protected against Sarah Palin in a closed proceeding," Johnston said in an affidavit. "I hope that if it is open she will stay out of it. Bristol's attorney is her attorney."
Bristol Palin's petition for sole custody and child support, filed in early November, also seeks a visitation schedule for Johnston. Bristol says her ex-fiance has exercised "sporadic visitation rights."
Relations between the Palins and Johnston and his family have frequently been strained since the couple broke off their engagement after their son was born in late December 2008.
Johnston denies in court documents that he has avoided his responsibilities. He is seeking shared custody.
Bristol Palin is the eldest daughter of Sarah Palin, who resigned as Alaska governor in July.
Sarah Palin announced her daughter's pregnancy days after being named the running mate of Republican presidential candidate John McCain.
Bristol Palin's custody petition calls Johnston's recent nude photo shoot with Playgirl magazine "risque."
The document also notes that Levi's mother, Sherry Johnston, should not be allowed unsupervised visits with the baby following her drug arrest. Sherry Johnston, who is serving out most of her three-year sentence under home confinement, was sentenced last month on a guilty plea to one count of possession with intent to deliver the painkiller OxyContin.

Animated Boehner: 'There's nothing complex about the Keystone Pipeline!'
House Speaker John Boehner became animated Tuesday over the proposed Keystone Pipeline, castigating the Obama administration for not having approved the project yet.
- Budget deficits shrinking but set to grow after 2015
- Senate readies another volley on unemployment aid
- Obama faces Syria standstill
- Fluke files to run in California
- Animated Boehner: 'There's nothing complex about the Keystone Pipeline!'
Palin's custody petition also suggested Levi Johnston may have his own issues with substance abuse, saying he made statements about seeking "weed" on Twitter.
Johnston denies making such a statement, saying the Twitter account "is a fraud" and that he doesn't have an account on the popular online social networking site.
In a motion opposing closed proceedings, Levi Johnston's attorney, Rex Butler, argued that Bristol Palin had not shown what sort of evidence could stigmatize the child.
"This case presents a custody case with similar facts that attend open cases every day in the Alaska court system," Butler wrote.

The Family Filmgoer
A handsomely wrought, thoroughly engrossing adaptation that should satisfy fans of the books and other teens
"THE HUNGER GAMES," Rated PG-13 — Even teens who haven't read Suzanne Collins' popular dystopian trilogy for young adults ("The Hunger Games," "Catching Fire" and "Mockingjay") will be gripped by this arresting film adaptation of the first book. Despite the bravery and selflessness of young heroine Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) and her co-fighter Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson), the film has a dark view of human behavior and of the future that some younger teens — and certainly preteens — might have trouble processing. Katniss lives in District 12 of the country of Panem. District 12, a mining sector, looks like photos of 1930s Appalachia. Katniss' father died in a mine explosion (nongraphic flashback). Panem is the nation that replaced America in a post-apocalyptic world. Its outrageously coiffed and clad rulers live in the glitzy Capitol and exercise ultra-control over Panem's 12 districts. Every year, as punishment for a long-ago rebellion, the Capitol requires each district to contribute two teenagers, or "tributes," to take part in the Hunger Games, a fight to the death in which only one teen can win. When Katniss' little sister (Willow Shields) is chosen in the lottery, Katniss volunteers to take her place. She is an expert archer. Her guy pal Gale Hawthorne (Liam Hemsworth) vows to care for her mother (Paula Malcomson) and sister. Peeta becomes District 12's second "tribute." Katniss and he travel to the Capitol, mentored by an eccentric PR person, Effie Trinket (Elizabeth Banks), and a former winner, Haymitch Abernathy (Woody Harrelson), now a cynical drunk. As they're groomed and trained for the games, Katniss and Peeta become favorites of the TV host (Stanley Tucci) covering the games. Once they and their 22 competitors are let loose in a woodland battlefield, all their actions are tracked and broadcast on TV. The agitated camera work gives the enterprise an urgency that works well. Katniss and Peeta are tested both physically and morally.
THE BOTTOM LINE: The actual violence is quite understated, but we do see bloody, painful-looking wounds on Katniss and Peeta. And you never lose track of the fact that the young "tributes" fight and kill one another with daggers, spears, arrows and even land mines. We see a former winner in a video holding the bloody brick he used to kill a rival. Katniss dispatches at least one competitor stalking her when she causes a huge wasps' nest to fall on a group of rivals. We see multiple dead bodies of teen fighters. Katniss escapes a huge forest fire. The film includes rare, mild profanity and negligible sexual innuendo. A theme of loss runs throughout.
Fine for kids 6 and older
"DR. SEUSS' THE LORAX," Rated PG — There's little poetry in this animated 3-D adaptation of Dr. Seuss' save-the-trees parable, but it's a lot of fun anyway, and great for kids 6 and older. The vivid colors, elastic character animation and rich humor in the script all serve the Seuss legacy nicely, if differently. Twelve-year-old Ted (voice of Zac Efron) lives in Thneedville, a walled city devoid of any plant life. Everyone there is happy with artificial trees. But Ted worships the lovely Audrey (Taylor Swift), a teen in love with the idea of real trees — the tufted Truffula Trees that used to grow in the town. The evil mini-tyrant Mr. O'Hare (Rob Riggle) is determined that the trees are never replanted. Ted longs to give Audrey a Truffula Tree, or at least a seed. His grandmother (Betty White) tells him to ride his motorbike out of town to find the Once-ler (Ed Helms), a grizzled hermit who can recount what happened to the trees. In a long flashback, the Once-ler recounts how he came to Truffula Valley and invented the "thneed," a multipurpose scarf made of the tufts atop Truffula Trees. The Lorax (Danny DeVito), a furry spirit who spoke for the trees, tried to get the Once-ler and his greedy family to ease up, but they stripped the valley bare. Now the Once-ler regrets what he did. Ted gets a Truffula seed, takes to Thneedville and starts a green revolution.THE BOTTOM LINE: The bad guy O'Hare has two large goons who might scare kids under 6. When Ted rides outside of town he encounters a foreboding wasteland. The Once-ler recalls the time his bed floated down a river toward a waterfall. But nothing is really too scary here, even in 3-D.

A royal yarn
His wife may have garnered attention for her not unimpressive handle on appropriate fashions, but the Prince of Wales' visit to Australia also included his own fashion foray in the capacity of his role as patron of The Wool Campaign.
And it was a shy year 10 student who was chosen to model one Aussie design for the royal visitor at the Museum of Contemporary Art last week.
Seventeen-year-old Brooke Pearce, who is completing year 10 at the Southern Highlands Christian School in Bowral, showcased a piece that won her the 2012 Wool4Skool prize. The deep pink skirt features a panel of multi-coloured strips that references a DNA helix.
''DNA represents life and all the colours represent multi-culturalism and it's all burnt together, like DNA is all burnt together,'' Pearce said.
Her piece joined ensembles in wool from five leading designers – Akira Isogawa, Dion Lee, Josh Goot, Camilla and Marc, and Kym Ellery – were modelled for the prince, with each designer standing by for a chat about the merits of merino and the thinking behind their designs.
Dion Lee showcased a striking grey felt frock coat with anatomical detailing running down the back in woven PVC. The design won him this year's Australian International Woolmark prize.
Josh Goot presented a sleek black tuxedo previously worn by Miranda Kerr for David Jones and Akira Isogawa presented a hand-embroidered cream ensemble with a thick plait along its neckline.
Ms Pearce said she was nervous at first but ''[Prince Charles] was calm and collected so then I was calm, too.''
He asked her if her design was comfortable and ''the model actually answered and said it was comfy because, like, she was wearing it,'' Miss Pearce said.
While wool has retained its premium position in the menswear sector – particularly for suits – cheaper, artificial fibres and fabrics have ''challenged'' its position in the women's wear sector, said Peter Ackroyd, the executive director of the Prince of Wales's Campaign for Wool. The campaign aims to re-gain ground for wool on the basis of its environmental benefits.
''The Prince of Wales' message [as the campaign's patron] is basically one of sustainability,'' Mr Ackroyd said. ''Wool is biodegradable, renewable and sustainable, and it lasts … and people are starting to ask questions about the provenance of the clothing they buy and its environmental impact.''
When it comes to fashion, Australian merino tops the class, Mr Ackroyd said.
''It is the softest. It is the finest micron. And it is sought after,'' he said.

News that Natalie Portman was "The Other Woman" would be a lot more juicy it had anything at all to do with her recently announced engagement and pregnancy, but alas...
IFC Films has released the trailer and poster for "The Other Woman," starring Portman in the title role, with Lisa Kudrow as the previous woman and Scott Cohen as the cheating husband who switches from one to the other.
Written and directed by Don Roos, who adapted it from Ayelet Waldman's novel "Love and Other Impossible Pursuits," the film follows Portman's character as she falls for and weds a married man, loses her one-day-old baby to SIDS and struggles with her relationship with her stepson.
We loved Roos' debut effort, "The Opposite of Sex," as much as anyone, but this trailer ain't doing to much for us. It looks a little Lifetime-y, and not in a good way (whatever that might be). There may be a reason this movie has been sitting on the shelf since 2009.
"The Other Woman" makes its world premiere New Year's Day On Demand, before a (presumably limited) theatrical release Feb. 4. The cynic in us can't help but think the timing of this is somehow tied to Portman's rave reviews for "Black Swan."

The Internet has been abuzz with rumors that Adam Lambert is a queen, and also that he will join the band Queen, replacing Paul Rodgers who replaced Freddie Mercury.
Lambert vaguely answered both queries in the days since he lost to Kris Allen on the "American Idol" finale.
Lambert won't rule out a stint as the new frontman of Queen, but don't let that fool you into thinking the "American Idol" runner-up will make his living on the classic rock station. The legendary band has expressed interest in employing his formidable vocal skills.
"I'd certainly like to work with Adam," Queen Guitarist Brian May said in Rolling Stone. "That is one amazing instrument he has there."
But the 27-year-old California native said Tuesday that he'd feel torn about joining the band.
"That's a tough question because, honestly, how do you say no to being in Queen?" said Lambert, sporting his trademark dark nail polish and blue-streaked hair. "I mean, that's unbelievable. But at the same time, I do have my own thing to do right now, and that's my goal. So if I could, I would try to do both. That's the honest question. I would try to do both. I would love to perform with them anytime they wanted me to but I also have my record to do. So, we'll see."
Lambert, a former theater actor, has ambitious plans for his post-"Idol" debut album.
"My record will be kind of a rock-pop-electronic-dance thing," he said. "I don't know how to describe it. I think it's gonna take on a life of its own, as far as genre goes."
The album is in the very early stages and Lambert aims to co-write much of the material.
On "Idol," Lambert was the resident glam rocker, staging elaborate, over-the-top performances and daring to don goth-inspired outfits (with guyliner) on an otherwise family-style show. His appearance, a slew of photos that showed him canoodling with boys and a Youtube video in which he says he doesn't like making out with girls led to speculation that he was a gay idol. Lambert has declined to comment on his sexuality, but he did say on Larry King that he wasn't born fabulous --- take that how you like.
While Lambert hasn't confirmed any of the Queen speculation, orientation or otherwise, he is promoting an idea of empowered individualism..
"I want to communicate the liberation that is being comfortable in your own skin and that is being your own person," said Lambert, who has largely kept his personal life under wraps. "And the spirit of being different, and how strong that can make you feel."

Custodian digs through trash for little girl's tooth
A school custodian went above and beyond to teach a little girl a lesson about not giving up.
Caroline Buresh said she put her newest prized possession – her tooth – inside a small purple box.
-- VIDEO: Girl thinks tooth is gone forever until this happens ...
The second grader, who recently turned 7, wanted to show it off, but those plans took a turn.
"I forgot it was on my tray, and I put it in the trash can," she said.
Luckily, Paul Letcher, the school's custodian, was nearby helping out during the lunchroom rush.
"She was visibly upset with tears and very unhappy," Letcher said.
Caroline thought she'd never see it again. But Letcher recognized this as a teaching moment.
"I said, 'Well, we won't let 'no' define us. Let's see what we can do,'" Letcher said.
After all, Letcher, a father himself, knew how little things mean a lot to a kid.
"I realized this was a very big deal to her," Letcher said.
But this meant digging deep into his conviction, into a barrel full of disgusting goo.
But it only took 20 minutes before Letcher found it.
"It was incredible that Paul could find it," Caroline said. "I wasn't sure he could find it, but he actually could."
The gesture left the little girl with a big smile, her purple box and her tooth.
She put it under her pillow that night, and she got money and got to keep the tooth.

BRISTOL, RI-For the third year in a row, the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth's cross country team has won their opening meet.
The Corsairs scored 38 points and took first place in an eight-team field at the Roger Williams Invitational at Colt State Park Saturday. Johnson & Wales was second with 53 points, and the host Hawks third with 66. The women finished second in their eight-team field with 62 points, 7 points ahead of Roger Williams. Wellesley was first with 16 points. Both races were five kilometers in distance. "It was a really good day and good effort from both teams," said Corsairs head coach Jon Hird.
Junior Nick Santoro (Shrewsbury, MA/St. John's HS) of the Corsairs finished second the men's race in 16:15, senior Derek Stevens (Swampscott, MA/Swampscott) finished third in 16:17, sophomore Kevin Gilmore (Hanson, MA/Whitman-Hanson HS) was fifth in 16:30, junior Eric Nygaard (Medway, MA/Medway HS) was 11th in 16:45, sophomore Steve Burke (Norwell, MA/Norwell HS) was 17th in 17:07, freshman Cody Gibney (New Bedford, MA/Greater New Bedford Vo Tech HS) finished 27th in 18:03, freshman Steve Dowsett (Pittsfield, MA/Pittsfield HS) finished 30th in 18:10, junior Jeff Keys (Scituate, MA/Scituate HS) finished 31st in 18:11, freshman Chris Jordan (Taunton, MA/Taunton HS) finished 38th in 18:22, sophomore Kevin Cordaro(Whitman, MA/Whitman) was 45th in 18:38, and junior Wes Meserve (Merrimack, MA/Merrimack HS) was 46th in 18:43. "The men are a really dedicated group, our top three would have been within three seconds of each other if Kevin [Gilmore] hadn't fallen in the woods," said Hird.
For the women, freshman Dekontee Chea (Chelmsford, MA/Chelmsford HS) finished fifth in 19:36, sophomore Meaghan Bohigian (Barre, MA/Quabbin Regional HS) was ninth in 20:42, sophomore Courtney Testa (Hopkinton, MA/Hopkinton) finished 10th in 20:43, sophomore Megan Oliveira (Somerset, MA/Somerset HS) was 19th in 21:19, freshman Kelci Sullivan (Hanson, MA/Whitman-Hanson HS) finished 29th in 21:41, freshman Brittany Lyons (South Yarmouth, MA/Dennis-Yarmouth HS) finished 40th in 22:26, sophomore Stacey Dybel (Littleton, MA/Notre Dame Academy) was 43rd in 22:38, and junior Katie Galindo (Melrose, MA/Stoneham) finished 65th in 24:50. "We didn't really know much about [Chen], she was a revelation, she took off and pretty much led the field for the first part, Courtney didn't run cross country last year so she was a little bit of a question mark but she ran really well and Megan put in a lot of good work over the summer...we are real excited about the start of the season," said Hird.
The Corsairs will return to action when they host the annual UMass Dartmouth Invitational next Saturday.

Jeffress' struggles complicate bullpen competition
SARASOTA, Fla. -- The Blue Jays still have to make at least one tough decision on their bullpen with less than two weeks to go until Opening Day.
Toronto has a pair of jobs up for grabs, but with left-hander Aaron Loup as the clear-cut favorite for one of those spots, the other candidates appear to be battling it out for the long-reliever role.
Right-hander Jeremy Jeffress made his latest audition in a 6-5 loss to the Orioles, but did little to separate himself from the rest of the pack. Jeffress surrendered three solo home runs and walked a pair of batters over two innings of work Wednesday, when he started and was scheduled to throw three innings.
"I'm just leaving it all up to them and I'm just focusing on playing the game," Jeffress said. "If they pick a spot -- long relief, one inning -- it's up to them. I'm just going out there, doing my best and trying to get the hitters out.
"I'm capable of doing it, and if they need me to do it, I will do it. I'm not set on one or two innings, I'm ready to throw as many innings as I can. I'd love to throw as many innings as I can."
Despite Jeffress' rough outing, he still remains very much in the mix thanks to a relatively strong spring. He entered play against the Orioles having surrendered just three runs in eight innings and appears to be neck-and-neck with left-hander Brett Cecil for the final spot in Toronto's bullpen.
There has never been any debate about Jeffress' potential. He has the ability to throw in the upper-90s, and his powerful arsenal is one of the main reasons he was selected with the 16th overall pick in the 2006 First-Year Player Draft.
The issue has been a lack of command. Jeffress has averaged seven walks per nine innings during parts of three seasons at the big league level, and that appears to be the one thing holding him back.
"He's electric," catcher J.P. Arencibia said. "Sometimes the ball is up. There were a couple of homers that were kind of windblown, but the only time he got hurt was when he was up.
"He can throw three pitches that are good. It's really just controlling that pitch in the bottom of the zone. If you make any pitch down in the zone, you're usually not going to get hurt."
Manager John Gibbons said there's no timetable for when a final decision will be made on the bullpen. In addition to Jeffress and Cecil, veteran Dave Bush and recently acquired Guillermo Moscoso are also candidates. Moscoso relieved Jeffress against the Orioles and also allowed three runs, throwing only an inning.
Bush is a somewhat surprise addition to the list, and while he remains a long shot, the 33-year-old has opened some eyes in camp. On an afternoon when the Blue Jays pitching staff struggled to get anybody out, it was Bush that came in to calm the storm, throwing three scoreless innings. He allowed three hits and walked one, striking out three.
"He knows what he's doing," Gibbons said. "He's not going to beat himself. He's going to throw strikes, and you know what you're going to get. He's still in the mix."
