MITCHELL, S.D. – After trailing by three points at halftime, the No. 18 Dakota Wesleyan University men's basketball team used a big second half to top Mount Marty College, 77-58 in a Great Plains Athletic Conference battle Wednesday at the Corn Palace.
The Tigers (18-8, 11-7 GPAC) scored a quick basket on the first possession of the game from Ty Hoglund (Dell Rapids, S.D.). But, the Lancers (6-21, 2-16 GPAC) quickly responded with a 7-0 run to take a 7-2 lead early in the first half.
DWU fought back after a long 3-pointer from Samuel McCloud (Rapid City, S.D.) to tie the game. Both teams traded baskets through the middle of the first half. Moments later, MMC went on an 8-0 run forcing a Tiger timeout.
DWU answered with a 7-0 burst of their own, highlighted by a Collin Kramer (Volga, S.D.) 3-pointer to pull within two points of the Lancers.
With two minutes remaining in the first half, the Tigers forced a turnover, leading into a Tristan Teichmeier (Sioux Falls, S.D.) layup to tie the score at 31. After a 3-point basket by MMC, DWU trailed at halftime 34-31.
In the second half, both teams remained tight as neither team had a larger lead than four. The Tigers took the lead on layups from Hoglund and Nick Harden (Chicago, Ill.) to push the lead to 44-42.
After the Lancers responded with a 3-pointer, DWU went on a 10-0 run to grab the momentum of the game. Aaron Ahmadu (Houston, Texas) drilled a 3-point basket to cap off the run forcing an MMC timeout.
The Tigers continued to hit shots from perimeter as McCloud and Ahmadu converted on back-to-back 3-pointers to take a 10-point lead. After another 9-0 run from DWU, the Tigers held a 69-50 lead with 4:28 left to play in the game.
DWU would close out the game down the stretch, holding the Lancers to 24 points in the second half to secure the GPAC victory.
The Tigers were led by Hoglund who scored 24 points on 9-of-11 shooting from the field. Ahmadu finished with 15 points on five 3-pointers. McCloud tallied 13 points, while Harden added 11 points and six steals. Teichmeier chipped in eight points and nine rebounds and Kramer collected six points and six rebounds.
DWU is currently 18-8 overall and 11-7 in conference play. The Tigers sit in fourth place and two games behind Briar Cliff University and the University of Jamestown with two conference games left to play.
DWU will be back on the road to take on GPAC opponent Concordia University at 4 p.m. Saturday in Seward, Neb.

New light on old tracks In the last issue o f Archaeology Ireland Barry Raftery outlined the exciting results o f investigations on a series o f wooden trackways at Corlea (1-5) and Derryoghil. Co. Longford. Unfortunately the date for one of these trackways. Corlea 2. was incorrectly printed in its calibrated form as 1040 BC instead o f 1240 BC. Here D r Raftery adds some interesting new inform ation about the trackways. "Dates for two more o f the trackways have recently been received. Two samples o f brushwood taken from Corlea 3 (the hurdle track) gave two radiocarbon determ inations indicating a date between 1250 and 1050 BC. Three samples o f oak planks from the most substantial o f the Derryoghil tracks (that illustrated on the cover o f Archaeology Ireland 1:2) were dated by dendrochronology. Two o f these were from the same tree for which a felling date o f between 971 and 936 BC was established. The third sample indicated a felling date o f between 955 and 920 BC. The track was thus laid down around the middle o f the tenth century BC.
Corlea 1. the great Iron Age road, extended across the bog in a NW -SE direction, ending at the west at a small island beyond which the bog stretches in all directions. In 1957 Professor Etienne Rynne. then o f the National Museum of Ireland, carried out rescue excavations on a trackway in bog to the immediate west of this island, in the townland o f Derraghan More. Unfortunately this trackway appears in the meantime to have been totally destroyed. A brief account o f the road appears in A.T. Lucas's 1985 Royal Irish Academy paper on toghers. It zigzagged across the bog for approximately 960m and his description indicated that it closely resembled the Corlea roadway in details o f size and construction. This sim ilarity was confirmed by examination o f the site plans preserved in the files o f the National Museum. Wood samples from the Derraghan More road, retained since the 1950s excavation, were recently dated by the radiocarbon method to between 200 and 100 BC. It thus seems that the two stretches of independently excavated roadw-ay were contem porary elements o f a communications system. The original length of the Iron Age road was some 2km, making it an undertaking o f far greater magnitude than had been suspected up to now, and this has major implications for our understanding o f second-century BC Iron Age social organisation.
The later Bronze Age date o f 'h e Derryoghil trackw ay is also o f great im portance. It is constructed o f transversely-laid oak planks, each about 2m long, and may indicate that wheeled transport was already in use at this early date. The o ther tracks exposed at Derryoghil lie at roughly the same level in the bog as this one. The absolute urgency of rescue excavation on these tracks in advance o f their imminent destruction is thus given increased emphasis.'
In the pipeline News o f the extension o f the natural gas pipeline from Dublin to Dundalk came early in January 1988. This is good news not only fo r industrial and domestic users o f natural gas and the people and companies who will benefit from work associated with the construction o f the pipeline but also fo r archaeology. As in the previous phases o f the natural gas pipeline grid Bord Gdis Eireann arc routing the pipeline to avoid known archaeological monuments and checking the route fo r low-visibility sites, such as flint scatters, by field-walking before construction. The digging o f the trench fo r the pipe will he monitored to see what archaeological deposits turn up and time is allowed fo r excavation where necessary.
The archaeological benefits o f this approach can be seen in the published results o f work on the Cork-Dublin pipeline (1981-82) and the Waterford and Limerick pipelines (1986). Archaeological excavations on the Cork-Dublin pipeline appear in Cork Archaeological Studies No. I at £12 + £2 p+ p (from Department o f Archaeology. University College. Cork) in March 1988, and Three Irish Gas Pipelines: New Archaeological Discoveries in Munster, describing excavations in 1986 on the pipelines through Cork, Limerick, Tipperary and Waterford, is due out at the same time from Wordwell L td— Academic Publications, 9 Herbert Lane, Dublin 2 .

Today's bento is brought to you again by Megan! In the top left corner is Banana Chocolate Chunk Protein Bread from chocolatechillimango.com, an amazing blog full of recipes for healthy and protein-packed snacks. To digress momentarily, Megan has made a few recipes from the website like Sweet Potato & Rosemary Protein Bread and another type of muffin of which I can't remember. Both recipes were incredibly delicious and I could hardly tell they were made with protein powder! I look forward to conquering some myself in the near future!
Anyway, beneath the bread are some green beans and to the right are turkey meatloaf muffins and sweet potatoes. Recently, the two of us were bemoaning the fact that our beloved frozen roasted mashed sweet potatoes were dubbed a seasonal item and have since vanished from the frozen section. However, a co-worker of hers disclosed that if we were to bake and peel a bag of sweet potatoes and refrigerate them, they should last about a week. So stay tuned for more sweet potato presence!
Banana Chocolate Chunk Protein Bread from chocolatechillimango.com
165 grams egg whites (or 3 large eggs)
225 grams very ripe banana (edible flesh only, about 3 medium)
75 grams oat flour (gluten-free, if required, or substitute quinoa flour)
15 grams coconut flour
40 grams unflavoured whey protein (I used Professional Whey NZ WPI or rice protein)
30 grams unflavoured micellar casein (I used Professional Whey Micellar Casein or rice protein)
1 teaspoon vanilla powder (I used Professional Whey Organic Vanilla Powder. Substitute vanilla bean paste or seeds scraped from 1 vanilla pod)
1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
150 grams 0% thick Greek yoghurt (I used Chobani Plain 0%)
50 grams dark chocolate, chopped into chunks or shavings (I used Willie's Cacao Venezuela Black Carenero 100%)
sweetener, to taste (optional)*
*I did not add any sweetener as the bananas were very ripe and super sweet enough for me. However, check the batter to make sure it is sweet enough for you. If not, add some of your preferred sweetener, whether it be honey or maple syrup, pureed medjool dates, coconut or rapadura sugar, or stevia or a stevia blend.
Preheat the oven to 180℃.
Grease a loaf tin lightly with olive oil spray or line the tin with silicone paper, if not using a silicon mold.
Place the egg whites (or whole eggs) into a large mixing bowl. Mash 150 grams of the banana and add to the egg whites. Beat on a low to medium speed until the egg whites are frothy and the banana is well incorporated. The mixture should be whipped and creamy. Reserve the remaining 75 grams of banana.
Sift together the oat flour, coconut flour, whey and casein powders, vanilla powder, and bicarbonate of soda. Add half of the dry ingredients to the bowl and mix well. Add the yoghurt and beat again. Add the remaining flour mixture and beat until smooth. If you wish to make this bread sweeter, test the batter and add your preferred sweetener and mix in well.
Slice or chop the reserved banana. Add the banana and chopped or shaved chocolate and fold in to the batter. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf tin.
Bake for about 30 to 35 minutes until risen, and a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. Remove and cool on a wire rack before turning out.
This loaf keeps, wrapped, in foil, in a freezer bag, in the fridge for several days. It is best served slightly warm. It's fantastic spread with some freshly made peanut butter or topped with ricotta, cottage cheese, or thick yoghurt and extra fruit as a snack, breakfast, or dessert.

Lesha Maria Rodriguez shifts the understandings of what is important and characteristic about the photographic process from its physical manifestations in the expressive object to the process in its entirety, a process whose fundamental element is no longer the material work of art but rather the development of an experience. Although the initial impression is a critical approach to anthropology for reducing culture, she seeks to elucidate both sides, Colonialist/Tourist and the Other, to demonstrate the process of cultural reduction, at the same time defending the independence of lived culture from anthropological reductionism. The anthropological insufficiency of the human species, with its limited field of vision, the pitiful inability of humans to gain a full picture of themselves without turning to the unreality of a room filled with distorting mirrors, as has been emphasized from Ernst Mac to Jacque Lacan. Her works are not in efforts to emphasize or imply that the individual art object has lost significance, but rather that the object is recognized as the primary site for the dialectical processes of experience, as the unifying occasion for these experiences. Through the expressive object, the artist and the active observer encounter each other, their material and mental environments, and their cultures at large. She seeks to emphasize in what ways that experience, as aesthetic, is a manifestation, a record and celebration of the life of a civilization.
Rodriguez's art engages temporal themes through installations that offer an opportunity to engage a participatory oeuvre. Acknowledging that the viewer is coming in with a preconceived notion of how the world is organized, through acculturation or commodification of the senses, she exposes the breathe and depth that prevents us from experiencing something phenomenologically. In doing so, she shows that our senses are no longer natural, they are culturally produced, and the commodification of our sense has generalized the way we see the world. The blur is a shift between different modes of spatialization and temporization, the finished image resulting from this transformation evolves in terms from the prior picture in which the significant shape of the sphere can be discerned, just as the photograph loses its contours as the firm shape of the trees and arches dissolves into fog. The transformation, which provides a theme, for the ironic narrative of the print, occurs as the image blurs. The spatial coordinates temporarily dissolve and blur to become a diffuse impression. Rodriguez views the optical technology of film and photography as a means of transcending the imperceptible and undiscerning presence of a field. She no more trusts new media technology to aid in achieving a better position from which to view the world than outmoded photography techniques. The indistinct image from our memories, the internal reference to objecthood that appears to be latent in these pictures is a reference to something torn out of time.

Disruptive relationships and life events can continue
to have distressing effects until they are safely supported and worked through. Our collaborative dialogue can help amplify personal resources and shared sources of support as well as discover perspectives and ways of being to find relief from psychological distress or trauma.
Therapy can offer a safe and secure base for important authentic reflection and connection. It's a process that takes place in the present moment and integrates ways of thinking or behaving patterned by our past. Throughout our therapeutic process, I support and encourage your strivings with dignity, humanity and compassion. If you're seeking therapy, let's talk.
Miriam Schacter
Some questions people bring into therapy include the
following: How can I face crisis in my life, relationships, work or family history? How might I find support for anxiety, stress, anger and depression? ? Why am I stuck in repeated thoughts, sensations, emotional states or feelings? How do we make sense of shame or rage? How can I grieve and comfort loss?
Do you have any questions you'd like to ask or talk about?

Participation of Cyfield Group in Best Invest Conference
Cyfield Group has participated in one of the largest local investment conferences that took place Limassol, on 16-17 October, 2016.
During Best Invest Cyprus, a significant number of investment projects in the fields of real estate, energy, tourism and medicine was presented to potential investors, business consultants and entrepreneurs.
The Group's business plan along with the adoption, by the Republic of Cyprus, of the Scheme for Naturalisation of Non-Cypriot Investors, has driven the Group to shift its sales strategy in the foreign market.
Having developed projects that are addressed among others to foreign property buyers, the participation of our Group in the aforementioned conference was of great importance.
The International Sales Department of the Group have had the opportunity of presenting the company's projects to the participants of the Congress, whereby several potential investors have expressed a strong interest in our new developments.

One of the goals of the 2016-2019 Strategic Plan operational excellence team is to increase the percentage of citizens who know who to contact for City services by 6 percent by 2019. To make citizen contact with the City of Columbia as simple and direct as possible, a Contact Center was initiated in 2014.
The goal is to have one number for citizens to call by 2018. This means that no matter what topic a citizen is calling for, they will call the number (573-874-CITY) and either have their question answered immediately or be transferred to the person they are trying to reach. Approximately 80 percent of calls received in the Contact Center are resolved in one call.
The Contact Center currently has 11 customer service representatives who answer calls for Public Works Engineering, Street Division, Sewer, Stormwater, Transit, Columbia Regional Airport, Solid Waste, Water & Light Administration, Electric Distribution, Water Distribution, Human Resources and Office of Cultural Affairs. This list will grow as the Contact Center takes on more City phone numbers.
During fiscal year 2016, the Contact Center received 73,284 calls with the highest call volume being for Transit, Solid Waste and Utility Customer Service. Contact Center employees receive a minimum of 400 training hours in their first year and 100 to 150 each year after to ensure that our customers receive the highest quality of customer service.

In just a few weeks, season 2 of The CW's newest superhero show Supergirl will come to a close. Over the past seven months, we've seen a number of iconic comic book characters from Kara Zor-El's world come to life on the series. Everyone from Lena Luthor to Miss Martian and even Superman himself have had a part to play in getting this season to the finish line. Yet all eyes are now turning to to a major villain who is expected to show up in the season finale.
Not only is Superman returning for the big episode, but General Zod (Mark Gibbon) will also appear for the first time to wreak havoc. As one of Superman's greatest enemies, Zod is a megalomaniacal Kryptonian whose superpowers should rival Supergirl's own. She'll definitely need her cousin Kal-El's help to defeat this latest foe. However, it's more than likely Zod will return as the primary villain in season 3.
We've already seen behind-the-scenes photos and video from the season finale to give us a taste of what to expect when Zod faces off against Supergirl. A new interview with executive producer Andrew Kreisberg and TVLine explains just what the writers have planned for Zod and his new look. While we still don't know how or why Zod shows up on Earth, according to Kreisberg it won't be for very long:
"It's a bit of a fun surprise. He doesn't have a lot of screen time, so I can't say our interpretation is as nuanced as either [Superman/II's] Terence Stamp or [Man of Steel's] Michael Shannon, but we did one thing to put our own stamp on it — at least visually."
That stamp they put on the character visually is Zod's new suit, which Kreisberg says will harken back to the character's origins in the Adventure Comics. Zod will be sporting "a little bit of that Nazi uniform look you'd see in the comics in the '60s." Kreisberg then adds, "It's definitely fun for us. And when you see the context in which he appears, it could only be Zod in that episode. " Whether they decided not to make the character too nuanced because he doesn't stick around for too long or because he only appears for a short time before returning next season is unclear.
Right now Supergirl has quite a few foes to contend with in Cadmus, Lillian Luthor, and Queen Rhea, but it would be a shame to see Zod appear on the show and not live up to his full potential. For right now, we're assuming that the scenes with Zod aren't just flashbacks or dreams, since he appears to be on Earth, judging by the previously released video clip of him saying, "You actually care for these Earth people?" Still, we don't know exactly how he arrives on the planet. Perhaps he'll escape from the Phantom Zone or maybe he was released from the Kryptonian prison Fort Rozz along with all the other aliens and has been biding his time. Only time will tell.
Supergirl continues Monday, May 8 with 'City of Lost Children' at 8pm on The CW. The season 2 finale, 'Nevertheless, She Persisted', airs May 22.

In the recent past, packing products have been at the head of the sustainability wave. The last decade or so has seen the practice of sustainable packaging grow by leaps and bounds throughout the industry, helping organizations better meet their consumers' demands while becoming more environmentally friendly. There are still problems in this new focus, but there are also new strategies to improve companies' efforts even more.
Importance of sustainable packaging within the market
Packaging Digest asked a few questions about the approach, emphasis and benefits of a sustainability-based approach in packaging. One of the biggest issues is that of brand equation, as in how beneficial to a specific brand such a campaign can be.
As global awareness of environmental safety and sustainability continues to rise, more consumers are trying to do their part to reduce their environmental footprint. Citing a survey by Cone Communications, the news source found that more than 80 percent of all respondents said sustainability was important for their decision to make a purchase, and they were only more interested if they had a way to define how to use and dispose of a product. A number like that helps businesses re-establish the importance of using sustainable means while simultaneously appealing directly to their consumer base.
However, sustainable packaging actually goes further than simply spurring audience demand. The implementation of sustainable choices can act as a differentiation in a tough marketplace and actively improve any company's reputation, helping them gain more market interest and share alike. About 60 percent of packaging players consider the practice to be a major concern, especially when they're compared to other companies. About 60 percent of companies in the industry consider it a primary concern in their practices, compared to 40 percent in other industries. This will only lead to more companies changing their packaging designs if or when they get the opportunity to do so.
"More than 80 percent of all respondents said sustainability was important for their decision to make a purchase."
The growing undercurrent of sustainability
What's more, the status of sustainable packaging in the realm of fast-moving consumer goods has grown quickly, with new emphasis put on improving the sustainability of packaging. For instance, Unilever has been working to improve this by reducing packaging weight by a third, maximizing recycled content in packages and improving recycling and recovery rates by as much as 15 percent in the next six years. As of 2013, it's well on its way to achieve these goals, as its achievements currently include an 11 percent reduction in weight, a 7 percent improvement in recycling, and more than 3,000 tons of post-consumer recycled materials currently on store shelves overall.
This means that if a company or supplier is looking to add new sustainability practices, the sooner the better. Suppliers and companies who can help other patrons in the market have been given preference when they're an option for sourcing. The more sustainable the efforts appear to be, the better overall opportunities will be available in the market
Sustainable successes recognized throughout the market
As the overall popularity of this practice grows, more companies are joining in. Supply Management found that brewer SABMiller plans to cut its carbon footprint by about 25 percent throughout its value chain for each liter of beer it produces through the year 2020. Additionally, it will also attempt to reduce emissions by 50 percent at breweries, 25 percent in packaging carbon footprint and another 25 percent in refrigeration carbon footprint.
In doing so, the company aims to secure its water supplies, reduce water risks and minimize consumption down to three liters of water per beer produced. The company also aims to support small businesses, hoping to expand and improve livelihoods and support a variety of enterprises.
"Beer is essentially a local product, and we have deep roots in the local communities where it is brewed and consumed," company director of sustainable production Andy Wales told the news source. "Our business-focused approach to sustainability has already developed innovative models of watershed protection, created new beers using local crops such as sorghum and cassava, and driven significant cost savings from carbon and water efficiency. This is a natural next step to support our future growth path."
Small businesses are just as sustainably-focused, according to the Portland Press-Herald. Mount Desert Island Ice Cream, which is known as a 2011 Food & Wine Top 25 Ice Cream Parlor, has sustainable business practices to the point where it won a spot on Mother Earth News' Top 20 Artisan Ice Cream Companies. The company works to do so by working with organic farms and working on finding the best packaging and recycling solutions that can help it meet its goals.

Grey hair is upsetting for many people, especially for those who are getting old. Some people just don't mind it. What they do is they rush to the nearest beauty salon to get their hair dyed or simply apply the colour themselves. Here are a few tips that can help you dye your grey hair and make it look really nice and beautiful.
Grey hair responds to many colours and also to chemical treatments. First, the colour you choose should be a lighter shade, preferably, a level three hair colour. You should consider a light hair colour because it blends together with grey hair and results in bright shining hair. Apply the hair colour by sections, depending on the length of your hair and brush your hair continuously. Allow the hair colour to stay longer in your grey hair. It should take about 45 minutes. Set a timer if you really want to be exact. The longer the hair colour stays on the hair, the more beautiful the results will be. Hair colour treatments are very concentrated because of the chemical content. Remember that some hair dye's can be harsh on your scalp. Also remember that rinsing your hair with warm water after applying the hair dye is a big plus. Apply the hair conditioner and let it stay on the hair for about three minutes. You will notice a great change after you blow dry your hair.

Pediatric elbow dislocations are rare injuries and are often accompanied by concomitant fractures. We report a rare case of medial dislocation of the right elbow without accompanying fracture in a 10.5-year-old boy after fall from a bicycle. After radiographic and magnetic resonance imaging evaluation, closed reduction under general anesthesia was performed and the elbow was immobilized in a posterior above-elbow slab. Elbow mobilization was started after 2 weeks and the posterior slab was discontinued after 4 weeks. At 3 months, the patient had a full range of active elbow flexion extension and pronation supination. At 4-year followup, radiographs show a normal alignment of the elbow with mild changes of heterotopic ossification. We believe that this is the first such case ever reported in literature. Early recognition and prompt diagnosis is the key to achieve a good result.

Silly dog rescued from his folly....nice to hear of it.ReplyDelete
Snow is one of the many things I don't miss.
I'm glad the dog was saved. You are brave... driving on those roads... but as you said, you have been doing it a long time. Looking forward to that new header... and more evidence that Spring is not too far off.ReplyDelete
My spring will be lived vacariously through blogs such as yours. With over two feet of snow on my front yard and roof and still below-zero temps, my crocus are at least two months from emerging. The large lilac bush in the back yard dependably blooms in mid-June, and I'll enjoy the scent wafting into the house. I know, I know, you don't care.....but do post pics of flowers emerging. I'll try not to whine.ReplyDelete
I want the belly shot of new growth...no excuses..I need to know that the earth is still alive.ReplyDelete

It won't be long!ReplyDelete
Didn't you hear? This winter will NEVER be over!!!ReplyDelete
I think I'm trying to wring what comfort I can out of the old line "Blessed are they who expect nothing, for they shall not be disappointed"...
Thank goodness we seem to have seen the end of the constant rain here in England and the weather is now more seasonal. There are daffodils and crocuses everywhere. Beautiful! And hurrah! :)ReplyDelete
Ah, the adventure of winter. We too had snow overnight but the bulbs were coming out in January.ReplyDelete
I love that so many people were ready to save the dog. Heart warming.ReplyDelete
And yes, to the photo of new growth. Please.

Sights and sounds of spring.ReplyDelete
Sounds to me like the deer and the dog won in this situation.... too often not the case when it comes to a combination of them... snow, ice and a motorized vehicle. You are a kind person... and I sure hope spring comes soon to Ohio.ReplyDelete
Same here. Just as I'm getting ready to rejoice over green poking up out of my garden, we get dumped on by another storm of white. Yes, I've shoveled snow in May and seen killer frost late in June but hope SPRINGS when the dirt gets warm enough for bulbs to sprout. Hoping you and I have seen the end of the worst of this winter.ReplyDelete
So good of you to care of the pup.ReplyDelete

I'll change my snowy profile picture when the snow melts...ReplyDelete
I'm glad dog rescuers were about.ReplyDelete
I am sure it will be with joy when you get to change your blogger header to something less snow and more spring/summer. Glad the dog was safe, would hate to see any dog hurt, injured, or worse. Its been years since I drove on snow/ice, but I was always glad when I got to where I had to get to and back safe home again. It was always a challenge to get out there; I admire your efforts to try to do the best you can with what you have to work with!ReplyDelete
Glad the dog was returned to his owner safely.ReplyDelete
Please put down a thick blanket before lying on your belly, that way if you can't get up again at least you can roll up in it for warmth while shouting for help.
I love the way you write. I imagine you telling the story to me over a hot cup of tea.ReplyDelete
oh I know! sick of this winter. 1st week of March, new green sprouting everywhere and things blooming after three weeks of spring and last night we had a hard freeze. left my plumerias out because they were saying just a dip to 32. my poor iris in full bloom. the easter lilies starting to make buds. the ground orchids, after being fooled by last winter, waited til this week to send up blooms. all the new growth. all frozen.ReplyDeleteReplies
It stinks! Your flowers gave me hope.Delete

What an adorable dog! Makes me want to adopt one. Lol.ReplyDelete
Well dogs are sweet blokes.ReplyDelete
I'm glad the dog will be going back to his owner. I'm also glad that the hope of spring is starting to sprout.ReplyDelete

NEW HAVEN, Conn. - The Saint Michael's College women's swimming & diving team set a pair of school records on Thursday during the opening day of the four-day Northeast-10 Conference Championship in Southern Connecticut State University's Hutchinson Natatorium. The Purple Knight women stood seventh out of nine schools at the conclusion of day one, while the men were seventh among seven. No team scores were available.
Friday's second day begins with trials at 9:45 a.m., followed by the finals session at 6 p.m.
Senior Lindsay McNall (Colchester, Vt./Colchester) played a hand in each mark, which both came in relays. During the opening leg of the 200-yard medley relay, McNall, who entered the day with the quickest 50-yard backstroke time (27.80) in the NE10 this winter, eclipsed that with an opening 50 back leg of 26.90, surpassing her own two-year-old school record by 0.86 seconds. It was the second-fastest opening leg among the event's 17 relay teams. McNall joined classmate Katrina Wiesner (Bow, N.H./Bow), junior Ally Fischang (Oakland, Maine/Messalonskee) and first-year Lauren Giampietro (Watertown, Conn./Watertown) to nab seventh place in the relay, clocking in at 1:52.93 to come within 1.56 seconds of a five-year-old school record.
In the 800-yard freestyle relay, McNall anchored a foursome also comprised of Fischang, Wiesner and sophomore Patty Kohn (Weston, Conn./Greenwich). The quartet clocked in at 8:05.89 while taking sixth in the event, besting a two-year-old program standard by 4.98 seconds.
Junior Genevieve Gigandet (Groveland, Mass./Central Catholic) was eighth in the one-meter diving competition with 295.35 points, the highest placement by a Purple Knight at the league meet since Jade Lubeck '13 was also eighth during the 2010 competition. Tierney Carey '09 was the last diver to finish higher, corralling fourth place at the 2009 NE10 Championship.
The Purple Knight women had a pair of 16th-place relay foursomes. Kohn joined senior Cymantha Rogers (Swampscott, Mass./Swampscott) and sophomores Elizabeth Doherty (Dedham, Mass./Dedham) and Tess Grimaldi (Higganum, Conn./Haddam-Killingworth) during the 200 medley relay. In the 800 free relay, Doherty sided with first-years Reiley Adelson (Saratoga Springs, N.Y./Saratoga Springs), Sarah Brennan (Glen Rock, N.J./Immaculate Heart Academy) and Megan Reid (Winchester, Mass./Winchester).
The men's 800 free relay quartet took sixth while nearing a program mark. Senior Ryan Butler (Waltham, Mass./Waltham), junior Spencer Ralston (Hebron, Conn./Cushing Academy), sophomore Pat Thornton (Lawrenceville, N.J./Lawrence) and first-year Connor Hopkins (Windham, N.H./Windham) combined for a time of 7:23.47, just 0.74 seconds away from a two-year-old record, and 22.73 ticks better than their seed time.
In the 200 medley relay, Butler, Thornton, senior Stephen Andersen (Concord, N.H./Concord) and sophomore Seamus Butler (Waltham, Mass./Waltham) captured seventh place in 1:41.98, with their time just 1.1 seconds away from another two-year-old program mark. Another quartet took 14th, being comprised of senior Sean Glasheen (Lowell, Mass./Lowell), junior Michael May (Wallingford, Conn./Lyman Hall), sophomore Jacob Sutton (Tyngsboro, Mass./Tyngsboro) and first-year Aidan Mulderrig (Rockville Centre, N.Y./South Side).
During the 800 free relay, Glasheen, May and Sutton joined junior Jake Fox (Cranston, R.I./Bishop Hendricken) for a 13th-place performance.

Inspired by Holy Spirit – Governing Body
Guided by Holy spirit – Rank and file. Listen and obey whatever the GB says

Inspired by Holy Spirit – Governing Body
Guided by Holy spirit – Rank and file. Listen and obey whatever the GB says
Actually, if you think about it, being guided by holy spirit should produce more accurate results.
If i were to visit a museum and was guided around i'd learn a lot more because the guide tells you all about the things you're looking at.
mrssaulk - "What is the difference (if any) between being guided by holy spirit and being inspired by holy spirit?"
They're both cards they play.
One's a set-in-stone-our-way-or-the-highway card... the other's a get-out-of-jail-free-if-they-turn-out-to-be-wrong card.
Whichever one is used is the one that's most useful at the time.
I figured that was the case. Couldn't find any good, logical explanation to either one...
If you are spirit-inspired, you receive components of holy spirit.
If you are spirit-guided, you receive minor fractions of holy spirit.
What holy spirit?
The only spirit I like is what comes out of a bottle ..hic..hic

Welcome to Clout Street: Morning Spin, our weekday feature to catch you up with what's going on in government and politics from Chicago to Springfield. Subscribe here.
Former Ald. Bob Fioretti went on the attack in the final weeks of his Democratic primary campaign against Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle.
He took her to task for backing county Assessor Joe Berrios during a forum on WTTW-TV's "Chicago Tonight." And Fioretti said the second-term board president had "isolated" herself from other elected officials and had jeopardized public safety by going too far with criminal justice reform.
For the most part, Preckwinkle defended her record during the 20-minute exchange by citing her financial, public health and criminal justice initiatives. But Fioretti appeared to get under her skin a couple of times when he tried to speak as she was talking.
"Will you let me finish?" Preckwinkle said to Fioretti, raising her voice. "I don't interrupt you when you're speaking. Don't interrupt me, please."
Host Phil Ponce gave Fioretti an opening at the start of the forum when he asked Preckwinkle why she continued to support Berrios after a recent study confirmed the findings of "The Tax Divide" series published by the Chicago Tribune and ProPublica Illinois.
The series found that assessments under Berrios tended to make property taxes lower than they should have been on more expensive homes and higher than warranted on less expensive ones, with minority communities being hit particularly hard.
Preckwinkle praised Berrios for helping to get tax bills out on time and his part in creating a unified property tax technology platform and said they were working on plans to remedy the assessment problems "as a result of the Tribune story. ... This isn't gotcha. This is, 'How are we going to fix it?' "
But Fioretti shot back.
"Getting unjust discriminatory property tax bills out on time that hurt working class people, that hurt the poor — well, should we applaud that? No," said Fioretti, who contended Berrios and Preckwinkle knew about the problem when they first came into office nearly eight years ago. "All of the sudden, it's an election year and they decided, 'Well, we found out we've got a problem here.' " (Hal Dardick)

*Durbin, Duckworth want Quincy details: Illinois' two Democratic senators pressed Gov. Rauner for more details about what he plans to do next at the veterans home in Quincy beset by deadly water problems.
U.S. Sens. Dick Durbin and Tammy Duckworth sent a letter to Rauner saying "we still do not yet have a detailed plan of action for ensuring the safety of residents, family, and staff at the facility going forward. Once again, we urge you to finalize such a plan without delay."
The home recently has been hit by four new cases of Legionnaires' disease, the malady that killed 13 Quincy residents in three years.
The Rauner administration this week said it's looking at razing the buildings where those victims stayed.

The Plan of Salvation
– that you are a sinner…
Romans 3:23, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God."
Romans 3:10, "As it is written, There is none righteous, no not one."
– that Jesus died, was buried, and rose again for your sins…
1 Corinthians 15:3-4, "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures; And that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures."
Romans 4:25, Who was delivered for our
– of your sins…
Luke 13:3, "I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish."
– God's Gift of Eternal Life…
John 1:12-13, "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God."
If you were to die today, do you have the complete assurance you would go to Heaven?
2 Timothy 3:15, "…the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus."
John 6:44, "No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day." However, John 6:37 states, "All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out." You must be drawn in
As one young lady put it: "I wasn´t planning on getting saved that night! Yet the saving power of God went forth and granted unto me the gift of faith and repentance; therefore, thru unmerited Grace, He saved my wretched soul."
Trusting Christ is more than mentally recognizing Him as the Son of God or having an emotional experience. You must receive Him as your Lord and Saviour by faith.
John 1:12, "But as many as received Him, to them gave He
Revelation 22:16-17,
Romans 10:13, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."
1. Tell others what Christ did for you.
Mark 5:19b, "…Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.
Acts 1:8, "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost
2. Be Baptized.
Baptism identifies you with Christ. Acts 8:36-38 says, "And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him."
Biblical Baptism is total immersion in water, signifying death, burial, and resurrection. Biblical Baptism is not being sprinkled with water or having water poured over your head.
3. Study the Bible.
The Bible will reveal God's plan for your life.
2 Timothy 2:15, "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
2 Peter 3:18, "But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and
4. Attend your local Church and support it with your prayer and offerings.
Participate in the worship services and Christian fellowship.
Hebrews 10:25, "Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching."
1 Corinthians 16:1-2, "Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given
Malachi 3:10, "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it."

DV wrote on completion of her Intermediate 3 Course, Jan - Feb 2018: Highlight of the week. Enthralling art, excellent company, fantastic teaching.
AH wrote on completion of her Intermediate 3 Course, Jan - Feb 2018: During this course we have been looking at Zentangle Inspired Art (ZIA) which is still about making art with patterns but the art may have a specific orientation and may be representational. It's very exciting to learn about this sort of art where everyone can be successful in being creative. We are sticking to a mindful approach in an atmosphere of support from our peers and an excellent teacher.
MG wrote on completion of her Intermediate 1 Course Nov 2017 - Jan 2018: I look forward to each session which enables me to relax, be totally absorbed and focused on the present moment. Absolutely amazing !
AH wrote on completion of her Intermediate 2 Course Nov/Dec 2017: I've continued to learn how to create patterns. it was something I thought I wouldn't be able to do or be interested in. But there are always new ideas to explore with our good teacher and collaborative group. The patterns we learn are echoed in nature and I found I've discovered a sense of wonder which we tend to lose after childhood - that of looking and seeing the beauty of the world around us.
NF wrote on completion of her Beginners Course Oct/Nov 2017: First of all I want to say that I'm very grateful because I have had the opportunity to know a beautiful person who inspires me and who teaches me how to find CALM and she helps me to realize that I can do more than I imagined. I want to thank Heather for being an amazing teacher and person.
Loving Zentangle from the first class and I've just finished the Beginner Course!! I'm continuing the Intermediate 1 and I want to know more and more of this relaxing and fun way to create beautiful images and again thanks to Heather for how she teaches, you can really get to know how Zentangle works.
GS wrote on completion of her Beginners Course Oct/Nov 2017: Heather ensures we have a relaxing time, focussing on the moment and passing on her skills at drawing. From the first lesson I have been able to produce patterns I am proud of. It is very satisfying.
JC wrote on completion of her Intermediate 1 Course Oct/Nov 2017: A colourful and engaging journey along the path from 'I can't' towards 'I can' and 'I will'. A delightful mix of fun and learning with a newfound group of friends. Who knew a simple 3½ piece of card and a black pen could give so much pleasure !
DP wrote on completion of her Intermediate 1 Course Oct/Nov 2017: A really chilled environment created to enable calm creativity. The different methods of background inspiration can be fun, calming and heart-warming. Heather is a gifted teacher and after being taught two courses by her, I'm so pleased we will be progressing further.
AK wrote on completion of her Intermediate 1 Course Oct/Nov 2017: What can I say about the Intermediate Course ? Wow !! Colour !! Another wonderful 6 weeks of pure enjoyment. I would also like to tell you this is a full work out for your brain. If you can't draw, but like Art, come along for fun and friendship. You won't regret it.
JC wrote on completion of her Beginners Course Aug/Sept 2017: Heather has a rare quality in a teacher - the ability to listen as well as speak. A thoroughly enjoyable course with lots to learn about oneself as well as Zentangle. A great journey from 'I can't draw' to 'I can do it !'
AH wrote on completion of her Beginners Course Aug/Sept 2017: I started this course to keep a friend company. Co-incidentally it was at a very distressing time of my life. I needed something to enable me to step away from the 'everyday' for a while. This course has enabled me to learn a new appreciation of the beauty and pattern that surrounds us in this world. At the same time I get so absorbed in what we create that I AM able to step away from the everyday stresses and strains of life for a precious couple of hours within this supportive group.
DP wrote on completion of her Beginners Course Aug/Sept 2017: I really look forward to every session of Heather teaching Zentangle drawing. She creates a peaceful oasis with calm, unhurried teaching. Heather gives encouragement rather than pressure, making a relaxing environment.
AK wrote on completion of her Beginners Course Aug/Sept 2017: I was attending the North Bristol Art trail when I met Heather and we started chatting and we got on well. She told me that she had just become a Zentangle teacher and I was intrigued. Heather was looking for a venue. I offered her the venue [Horfield United Reform Church hall] and the rest is history!! The Beginners course lasted 6 weeks. I enjoyed it from the word GO. Quiet, calm, nothing wrong, one stroke at a time - and intricate and exciting patterns are soon created. No pressure - all your own work - doing something for YOU. Heather is a very good teacher, explaining very calmly and patiently, and drawing so we can see it all on the screen. If you would like 2 hours of art, friendship and a very interesting hobby please come along - it is for everyone - even if you 'can't even draw a stick man!'

Odell Beckham, Jr. helped my fantasy football team last year. Someone was so disgusted with how bad he played in two straight games, they cut him to pick somebody else up.

NASCAR star Tony Stewart is probably bigger other places than his hometown here outside San Diego. That's because racing isn't a huge sport in the beach side communities. I've had many opportunities to meet him at events because he is from the area, but never cared enough to go.

In the 1990's, I walked into a thrift shop and walked out with some old typewriter. At the time, I was fascinated by writers like PJ O' Rourke and Hunter Thompson, and the organic nature of writing appealed to me. I also understood that Thompson especially, used a typewriter right up until he typed the word "counselor" on a single page before making a self-inflicted exit.
About that time I picked up Don Novello's "Lazlo letters" a compendium of letter written to all sections of…Continue

Bubba Wallace had a 2nd place finish in the Daytona 500 in 2018. It was the best finish ever for an African-American driver. He posted a photo of an autograph he got of Richard Petty on Twitter, and said if it got 43,000 retweets, he'd get it tattooed on his body. Now, he's going to get that "champ stamp" as some are calling it (a cute play on the expression "tramp stamp", bout the tattoos women have right above their butts).…Continue

"We all have our hobbies."
That was the response that I gave to an elderly gentleman back in 1999. My best friend and I were waiting on line outside of the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York City. A new Star Wars movie was about to be released for the first time in sixteen years. The elderly gentleman was with his wife, and he asked me what we were all doing on the sidewalk. After I explained our purpose, he said, "They should get a giant cage and lock you all in it." After I…Continue

There was a video I saw a few years ago where MMA fighter Conor McGregor showed up at a fans house and signed autographs. It turns out, McGregor was working out for a month at a nearby gym. This guy was Irish, and a huge fan, so he hung signs off his balcony wishing him well, and different messages daily. One day McGregor had a film crew follow him, when he decided to go knock on the guys door. It was great to see how thrilled this guy was, and also great to…Continue

I have been collecting autographs since I asked Phil Esposito to sign a scrap piece of paper in 1981 at the age of eleven, but it was never a true hobby until twenty-one years ago. It was then that I not only continued to collect in-person autographs, but also made quite a few purchases from dealers. It was not until seven years later that I discovered Autograph Collector Magazine.

The title of this blog might be a little of a bait-and-switch. Yes, I did get Bob Dylan's autograph, but that was years ago, and that was purchasing a signed album from an auction. It was "Blood on the Tracks" -- easily his best album (that's not even open for debate). It's the other Dylan, his son Jakob, who I got in person recently. He did a great documentary that's out now called "Echo in the Canyon" (you can read my review on it here:…Continue

One of my favorite "fake autograph" stories, is when Rod Stewart played a concert in San Diego, and a Stewart look alike showed up at a Radio Shack (remember those horrible electronic stores?). He got out of a limo, and had a bodyguard with him. Fans rushed him (well, the five people at Radio Shack), and he signed autographs, got back into his limo, and was off. Yet someone showed a photo to the newspaper, and they noticed he didn't have a mole in his chin (or…Continue

I've been riding most of my life. Several years ago, after several life changing events, we decided we had too much "stuff". Our first world life of over zelious consumerism had developed a question mark, WHY? Why chase our tails to have more stuff when what we really wanted was to travel and make great memories. Our jobs took up most of our time and energy, and it was draining us.
Then we discovered Horizons Unlimited and saw the movie, "Long Way Down". I had also met a man near me in Florida that had lost everything. He took off in a sidecar with his dog. I read a book, "Jupiter's Travels", by Ted Simon. I read about "2 Ride the World", Simon and Lisa Thomas. I wanted more.
In 2010 we sold everything and took off in an RV, seeing America and working on the road. We saw the US and rode our motorcycle through every state. Then we did an international motorcycle trip, just us.
We were hooked.
We have since ridden in 57 countries, with several big rides sketched out on maps still to come.
This brings me to the topic of this blog.
Commitments…or a Great Family. A few years ago a friend, Ted, asked me "Why don't you just go?". I answered job, family, dog, etc, and he said "So!".
We got to thinking, Why don't we just go, why are commitments holding us back. Well, we decided that our commitments were a couple things of our lives we loved, family. It's said that you can't have it all. I thought, why not?
So we redesigned our lives. We had zero debt and our expenses are our lives, wherever we are. We didn't need stuff. We didn't need a home in one place. What we needed was the only thing you can't have more of, time.
Now we don't work and are thrifty with our money. We have bikes on three continents, all valued at a total of $8000. We ride, we camp and we cook.
But most importantly, we see our family.
You can have it all.
We take off next week to ride from Eastern Europe to Nordkapp, then back to the Overland Event in the UK.
Below is what we did the past couple months, with family.

Finally, we can relive our purple dinosaur memories on the go.
Spyro Reignited Trilogy is at long last coming to Nintendo Switch on September 3.
The set includes: Spyro the Dragon (1998), Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage (1999), and Spyro: Year of the Dragon (2000). Retailing for $39.99, the port to Switch is handled by the original developer of the remastered trio of games, Toys for Bob. When it released last year on other platforms, reception was positive as it took the first three Spyro adventures and upgraded them in HD with modern controls. The original soundtracks from Stewart Copeland still remain.

You can officially call her Mrs. Petty now because Nicki Minaj is a married woman.
The rapper and boyfriend Kenneth Petty officially tied the knot. After obtaining a marriage license at a Beverly Hills Courthouse in late July, the couple had just 90 days to say "I do."
But on Monday night, Minaj announced the exciting news on Instagram with a video that showcased matching "Mr. and Mrs." mugs and black and white baseball caps that had "Bride" and "Groom" written across the front. "Onika Tanya Maraj-Petty 10-21-19," she captioned the post with a bride and groom emoji.
Minaj has sparked marriage rumors left and right throughout their relationship, which they made Instagram official in December 2018. Indeed, she lovingly called the 41-year-old her husband in March, changed her Twitter name to Mrs. Petty in August and tweeted about feeling "unconditionally loved" in September.
And just days after those tweets, things got even more serious when Minaj announced her retirement from music, saying she was ready for the next phase of her life: motherhood.
"I've decided to retire and have my family," she tweeted in September. "I know you guys are happy now."
Nicki Minaj May Be Getting Married Soon--Here's Why!
"To my fans, keep reppin me," she continued. "Do it til da death of me, in the box--cuz ain't nobody checkin me. Love you for LIFE."
Rather than keep their relationship under wraps, Minaj frequently makes her love for Petty clear. She has referred to him as the Ken to her Barbie, and, back in December, she wrote in another Instagram post, "He want me to be his wife- his MISSIS like SIPPI NOW."
Still, their love has not been without controversy. Petty is a registered sex offender in New York and reportedly was convicted of attempted rape in 1995. TMZ reports he spent four years in prison and was sentenced to a 10-year sentence in 2006 after pleading guilty to first-degree manslaughter.
Following backlash from fans, Minaj defended Petty in the comments section of her December Instagram, saying the attempted rape charge stemmed from a consensual relationship in his teens. The comments on the post have since been disabled.

*Regular followers will note that I missed a golden opportunity for Buzz to make a horrible misunderstood-word pun with the Bechdel Test… but that was on purpose, because I didn't want to derail the core point of this episode… which is to point out that I keep forgetting my female characters and often only remember them to further the plot of my male characters. That is the failing of me as a writer, and not my female characters. As I said to someone else recently, I need to work on that!
Uterus Corporate Logo Parody
So… there was a discussion on Facebook that I found myself involved in, regarding government attempts to regulate women's choices. Someone had made a funny meme suggesting that perhaps if women were to incorporate their bodies that our government might then be less inclined to try and regulate them! So, along those lines… I couldn't help myself and I created this Uterus logo to add to the discussion:
Obviously a parody of the Toys R Us logo, it just sort of fell into place once the idea had formed. While the actual topic of discussion is a serious one that I wasn't meaning to make light of, some of us were trying to bring a little humor into the conversation. I try to keep my blog light and not go too deeply into serious stuff, but please don't mistake that for not actually appreciating that there are serious things that a lot of people just aren't working properly at addressing.

Although summers on B.C.'s south coast are all-too-short, a hardcore group of summer hockey players that have been together as a team for nine seasons has been making the best of its time on the ice.
This is the last summer for the Whistler Mountain Rangers, a group of 17 and 18 year old local players who have been entering tournaments since they were eight and nine years old. They entered three tournaments as well as the Ultimate Spring Hockey League, racking up an impressive record of 26 wins, no losses and two ties. They won every tournament they entered, including the Whistler All-Star Tournament June 27-29 when they won six straight games, and won the shootout in the finals against the South Surrey Whalers after tying the game with 9.8 seconds left in the third period. They also won the Mainland Tournament (April 18-20), winning five straight games, as well as the Challenge Cup (May 16-19).
The team included a mix of players from the North Shore, Squamish and Whistler, as well as a handful of players from Burnaby. The Whistler and Squamish players are Eric Smith, Jesse Clemiss, Garrett Milan, Mike McCance and Hunter Nelson. The team was coached by Steve Sziklai, Barry Clemiss and Geoff Hewlett, all parents of Mountain Rangers players.
The final game was emotional for the players and coaches, especially after tying in regular time to eventually send the game to a shootout.
