Host Sewanee scored on each of its first three possessions and defeated DePauw by a 30-7 score at Harris Stadium. DePauw dropped to 1-4 with its fourth straight loss, while Sewanee improved to 3-4.
Sewanee marched 80 yards in just six plays on its opening drive with Ben Cleveland scoring on a 4-yard run. The extra point was off the mark and the hosts held a 6-0 lead with 10:11 left in the first.
Sewanee's defense stopped DePauw on downs and the offense needed just five plays to cover 85 yards with Zeke Wilson rushing for a 43-yard score to make it 13-0 with 5:57 remaining in the first.
The Tigers drove to the Sewanee 30, but Eric Malm's 47-yard field goal attempt was short and Sewanee's Garrett Schlosser made it 16-0 with a 27-yard field goal early in the second.
On DePauw's fourth play of the ensuing series, Sewanee's De'Nard Ford picked off Jackson Kirtley and returned the interception for a score to make it 23-0 with 7:19 left in the half.
DePauw's Taylor Wagner gathered in the resulting kickoff on his own five and scampered 95 yards for the visiting Tigers' lone score of the contest. It was DePauw's first kickoff return for a touchdown since JaMarcus Shephard had two against Millsaps on October 25, 2003.
Neither team cross midfield the remainder of the half as Sewanee went to the intermission with a 23-7 lead.
After recovering a fumble early in the third, DePauw drove to the Sewanee 17, but Alfonza Knight intercepted Kirtley in the end zone and halted the threat.
DePauw's defense stopped Sewanee on fourth down from the DePauw 27 on the next possession and then drove 72 yards but Kirtley's fourth-down pass from the 2-yardline was incomplete. After another defensive stop, DePauw drove to the Sewanee 22, but couldn't convert on fourth-and-15.
Sewanee wrapped up the scoring as Wilson scored on an 8-yard run with 1:25 left.
Armani Cato made his first collegiate start for DePauw and rushed for 84 yards on 18 carries. Nikko Sansone moved to running back from wide receiver, totaled 40 yards in 11 tries. Kirtley threw for 133 yards, but was picked off twice and sacked five times. Wagner caught three passes for 37 yards in the loss. Wagner totaled 222 all-purpose yards for the Tigers.
Cleveland totaled 54 rushing yards followed by Wilson with 53 and Lee Schurlknight with 50. Schurlknight completed 2-of-6 passes for 85 yards.
DePauw held a 16-14 advantage in first downs, but Sewanee led in total yards 348-240 and in yards per play (6.8-3.2)
Michael Fultz totaled seven tackles for DePauw including two for loss, while Sewanee's John Davenport had nine. Andrew Walters led the hosts with 1.5 sacks.
DePauw returns to action on Saturday, October 22, when it travels to Ohio Wesleyan for a 1 p.m. contest.

This tutorial will take you through tkFileDialog module where we make a very basic text editor which we will use for the next three tutorials.
Right, let's dive right in with the introductory code. The comments will explain much of it as we go.
#! /usr/bin/python from Tkinter import * import tkFileDialog class App: def __init__(self): # Set up the screen, the title, and the size. self.root = Tk() self.root.title("Notpad") self.root.minsize(width=500,height=400) # Set up basic Menu menubar = Menu(self.root) # Set up a separate menu that is a child of the main menu filemenu = Menu(menubar,tearoff=0) filemenu.add_command(label="New File", command=self.doNew, accelerator="Ctrl+N") # Try out openDialog filemenu.add_command(label="Open", command=self.doOpen, accelerator="Ctrl+O") # Try out the saveAsDialog filemenu.add_command(label="Save", command=self.doSaveAs, accelerator="Ctrl+Shift+S") menubar.add_cascade(label="File", menu=filemenu) self.root.config(menu=menubar) # Set up the text widget self.text = Text(self.root) self.text.pack(expand=YES, fill=BOTH) # Expand to fit # vertically and horizontally
This constructor does several things for us, primarily just getting a menu system set up and to set event handlers for them. Additionally, we set up a pre-prepared Text widget. It the constructor, expand tells the widget to fill the area around it and fill makes it expand in all directions.
The next thing that we must do is to set up the event handlers (this is still in the App class).
def doNew(self): # Clear the text self.text.delete(0.0, END)
I think that this code segment is self-explanatory where it just clears the text from the text widget.
Next, we set up the save dialogs.
def doSaveAs(self): # Returns the saved file file = tkFileDialog.asksaveasfile(mode='w') textoutput = self.text.get(0.0, END) # Gets all the text in the field file.write(textoutput.rstrip()) # With blank perameters, this cuts # off all whitespace after a line. file.write("\n") # Then we add a newline character.
You are probably wondering at this point why we destroy the white space and then adding a newline and not just letting it being added naturally. If it is not done in this manner, then the extra whitespace is added to the end of the current text. I think that this is a glitch in the Tkinter system, but this is one approach to fixing it.
Finally, the last handler loads text from a file into the Text widget.
def doOpen(self): # Returns the opened file file = tkFileDialog.askopenfile(mode='r') fileContents = file.read() # Get all the text from file. # Set current text to file contents self.text.delete(0.0, END) self.text.insert(0.0, fileContents)
This code reads from a file and writes it to the text.
Here is the final piece of code for this program that initializes it.
app = App() app.root.mainloop()
Now, those aren't the only functions in tkFileDialog, and here are the rest.
- askopenfilename() returns just the filename and you must open it yourself.
- askopenfilename() returns just the filename and you must open it yourself.
- asksaveasfilename() is the same as the previous except you must save it yourself.
- askdirectory() returns the directory.
- askopenfilenames() returns the names of several files.
- askopenfiles(mode='r') returns a list of several open files.
Finally, there are several options which can go in the parameter list.
- -defaultextension string: sets the default extension to append to the filename
- -filetypes: A list of tuples like so: [(all files, .*), (Python files, .py)]
- -initialdir: The directory that initially pops up for file looking.
- -initialfile: designates initial filename. *Note: This is not supported on Mac!
- -multiple: Allows multiple files on open dialog. *Note: Not standard on Mac
- -message: Specific message that appears on client *Note: Only available on Mac with Navigation services enabled
- -parent: Makes the window given the parent of this dialog.
- -title: Specifies a string as the title.
Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed it!

I suffered some pretty severe joint trauma during a recent injury. Fortunately my recovery has gone exceptionally well, and I've gotten back to a pretty highly active lifestyle. However I do have varying degrees pain throughout the day. I'd like to try glucosamine/chondroitin in addition to my exercises to see if it helps improve joint function and pain, but there doesn't appear to be any available data on the safety of either glucosamine or chondroitin sulfate during breastfeeding.
I'm curious to know if anyone here knows anything about glucosamine/chondroitin or has taken it while breastfeeding. I would like to continue nursing my now 16 month old for as long as he wants to nurse, but I would also like to explore all possible avenues for improving my joint function so that I can continue to do all of the activities my little guy and I like to do throughout the day.

KB5UJM 442.3500 MHz Repeater
|Player Selection
KB5UJM 442.3500 MHz Repeater
This feed provides amateur radio content wich means you never know the topics of conversation, the backgrounds of the people, or the exciting communications you will hear. It will comply with part 97 of the FCC's rules which means all the family can enjoy
|Amateur Radio
The KB5UJM repeater is an Amateur (HAM) radio repeater operating on a frequency of 442.350MHZ and is located in the Northeast area of San Antonio Texas. It is privatly owned, operated, and maintained to bring new people into the hobbie of Ham radio and this is one of its major functions. There are many features listeners may find fun to listen to. these include: *. phone patches, this is when a ham radio operator makes a personal phone call using their ham radio and the repeater. Although this has largely been replaced by the cell phone, this form of communication is still used as cell phone batteries often are dead when they are needed most. Phone calls are not considered private thus are not given any legal restriction and in fact Ham radio operators know the world is listening and must restrict their calls within the bounds of the FCC rules. These rules allow you to listen in so no problem there. *. Echo Link, this is a system in which Ham Radio operators can connect Echo Link enabled repeaters and simplex links to other Echo Link enabled systems around the world. In this way a Ham operator can communicate realtime with a Ham almost anywhere in the world. It is nothing for a Ham in the UK, Ireland, Japan, or anywhere else in the world to give a call for stations on the KB5UJM repeater so you never know who will be talking to who or where. *. The KB5UJM repeater was put on the air to be listened to and utilized. In this way we do everything we can do to keep people talking. One of the major problems of Ham radio today is that no one is talking so no one is talking, so, no one is talking. When I was first licensed in the early 1990s, there were many scanner listeners who became Ham radio operators. It was great fun listening to the fun of Hams talking and it was those bantering conversations that made me want to be a part of this wonderful hobbie. Now saddly scanners are not as mainstream as they once were and so many people may not even know how much fun Ham Radio can be. However, thanks to these types of audio feeds the hobbie of Ham radio can once again be shared around the world. The KB5UJM repeater uses echo Link, active promotion, and yes scanner feeds like this one to invite users to gain their Ham radio license and enjoy the fun and radio magic. I hope after you listen to this feed you will gain your own ticket and join our hobbie. * Give feedback! Do you like the repeater, let us know drop me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com and tell us how we are doing, or visit our web page at http://www.qsl.net/kb5ujm Take care, and 73. Robert, KB5UJM

A lottery ticket bought in Houma is worth $10,000 — but its owner hasn't turned it in.
A lottery ticket bought in Houma is worth $10,000 — but its owner hasn't turned it in.
Purchased at the Shell station on St. Charles Street on Aug. 8, the ticket is one number away from the perfect jackpot-winning ticket, 03-07-11-15-28. It even has the right Powerball number, a 12. The lottery corporation didn't give out the exact numbers on the winning ticket.
Though the ticket won't net its owner millions, it does qualify for the lower $10,000 prize. But the person who bought it has either lost or forgotten about it, or is unaware it is still worth serious money.
And the deadline for claiming the prize is closing in fast. If someone doesn't show up at the Louisiana Lottery office by 5 p.m. Feb. 4, the ticket becomes just another slip of paper.
Unclaimed winning lottery tickets are surprisingly common, said Janie Shipe, manager of the station that sold the ticket.
"They have millions of dollars that have not been claimed," Shipe said. "This does happen from time to time."
Five Powerball tickets, including the one in Houma, and two MegaMillions tickets remain unclaimed state-wide. All seven are worth $10,000 each.
Lottery spokeswoman Kimberly Chopin said it's not uncommon for tickets to go unclaimed for long periods of time, though most end up getting cashed in.
The lottery gives players 180 days to claim their prize. After 90 days, a notice is posted on the lottery website, louisianalottery.com, in case a player missed the original announcement.
Chopin said people frequently claim their tickets more than 90 days after buying them. The last big winner, for example, claimed a ticket on Tuesday that she bought in November.
"She had left the ticket in an old purse and had forgotten about it," Chopin said. "It wasn't until months later that she just so happened to see it and figured out she had won $250,000."
Chopin said lottery players should be careful with their tickets.
"Sign the back, and keep them in a safe place where you'll be sure to check them," she said. "Treat your tickets like cash."
Shipe said inexperienced lottery players often don't realize they can win smaller prizes even if they don't match all the numbers.
"There's all kinds of different ways you can win," Shipe said. "I think people should get the game guides that you can get with the tickets because those tell you what you need to know."
Shipe also pointed out that her gas station and many others have scanners that can figure out if a ticket won anything.
"If you come here looking for help, we can have somebody put it under the scanner, and we can tell you what you've got," she said.
Talk of lottery prizes inevitably gets people wondering what they'd spend the money on.
Local residents said they'd mostly spend the money on practical things, like paying off debts and bills.
"I'd pay off my bills, become debt free," said Laura Dufrene. "Then whatever is left, I would put aside for the lean times."
Paying for school is also a popular option, especially for Nicholls State University students and their parents.
Others said they'd spend the money on other people.
"I'd tithe 10 percent then pay some bills," said Lorna Robichaux. "Then I'd finish paying for my son's Europe trip."

pb_designs necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 207 diseños de 46 diseñadores freelance.
We're an entertainment agency that is expanding what we currently do and need to improve our image to do so.
We're looking for a redesign of our logo - either a "freshen up" or a completely new design....
Something that is quite funky (as we're in the entertainment business), yet still corporate as we'll be working with some big chains.
Freestyle Entertainment
You can see our existing logo at:
I quite like the "f" shape at the begining of the logo, but apart from that, the font is dull and the colour schme is even duller!
We're looking for something more professional and vibrant.
I like modern, clean typefaces and simple but effective designs.
The "f" design can stay if you like it - feel free to ammend/re-create as you see fit, or you can come up with something completely new.
I prefer the text to be all lowercase.
We're a DJ agency, and we deal with mobile DJs and Club DJs. Therefore, it's important the logo is fairly generic so it doesn't look like we're either a club DJ agency or mobile disco. We definitely don't want to look "mobile disco".
- The text should be "freestyle entertainment" (don't add the .co.uk or the phone number as per the current logo).
- Colour scheme is flexible - something that will stand out and print well.
- Font should be clean and contemporary.
- Something that is fairly funky, yet still corporate looking enough (we will be working with some fairly big chains)
- Anything that makes us look like a mobile disco!

A few days ago my boyfriends mother was trying to figure out what tasty breakfast treats she can make on Christmas Morning that fits into my diet world. I found myself embarrassed answering "oh just plain eggs and bacon are totally fine." She told me I'm worth it to just let her know. So I jumped online and found this on a great Gluten/Dairy free blog: tastyeatsathome.com.
Here is her most of the post:
A Gluten-Free Holiday: Breakfast and Brunch (Zucchini and Sun-dried Tomato Frittata)
A Gluten-Free Holiday is being hosted this week over at Diet, Dessert, and Dogs by Ricki Heller, and the theme is Holiday Breakfast and Brunch. Ricki is giving away a copy of her book, Sweet Freedom, and a copy of Gluten-Free and Vegan Holidays by Jennifer Katzinger, so be sure and head over there to check out the party!
Christmas is a time filled with lots of indulgences. Lots of cookies, tons of candy, and ever-so-special baked treats that make the season bright. Breakfasts are no exception, and I would be lying if I said I wasn't fond of a Christmas stollen, donuts, or a coffee cake. But overindulgence in these treats, I've learned, comes at a price – my still-sensitive system still can't handle a ton of sweets and grains, even gluten-free ones. So I pick and choose when and what I'm going to enjoy, even on the holidays. But that doesn't mean that there isn't room for "special" meals – far from it! Special, in my mind, means something that's a departure from the everyday (in a good way), and that doesn't always have to equate to extra sugar. In fact, for breakfast, I know I prefer a protein-and-veggie-filled meal to a carb-heavy one.
Hence the reason for this frittata. It comes together relatively quickly. Of course, the most important part? It's tasty, in a light and fresh sort of way. Yes, there is some bacon involved (which also ups the "special" factor a bit), but it's definitely nowhere near as heavy as most baked egg dishes, which are full of cream and cheese. The bacon and sun-dried tomatoes are pleasant components here, providing some depth of flavor without being overwhelming. This frittata is a delicious way to start a special day, and is light enough to leave room for a bit of other Christmas breakfast goodies, such as those being shared over at Diet, Dessert and Dogs this week!
Zucchini and Sun-dried Tomato Frittata
2 slices bacon, cut in half to fit skillet
1/4 c thinly sliced onion
1 large zucchini, thinly sliced (I used a mandoline)
3 T sun-dried tomatoes (I used my dehydrated "tomato candy")
1/4 c roughly chopped flat-leaf parsley
3 eggs, whisked
Salt and pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Heat a small 8-inch oven-proof skillet over medium heat and fry bacon until crisp, about 5-8 minutes. Remove bacon, leaving the grease in the pan. Once bacon is cool enough to touch, crumble. Add the onion to the pan and saute for 2 minutes, then add the zucchini. Saute until just tender and brown in a few spots, then add the sun-dried tomatoes, parsley, and crumbled bacon. Toss together a bit, and remove from heat. Add the whisked eggs and season with salt and pepper. Stir the vegetables and bacon together with the eggs a bit to incorporate everything evenly. Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 10 minutes or until eggs are set in the center. Remove from oven, and place a plate upside-down over the skillet. Holding the bottom of the plate with one hand, and the handle of the skillet with the other, flip the pan and plate together so that the plate is now at the bottom and the skillet upside-down on top. The frittata should come free from the skillet and lay on the plate. Cut into wedges and serve.
Makes enough for 2 as part of a breakfast or brunch. Can be doubled – just bake in a larger skillet, perhaps for a few extra minutes.

More often, and at what always feels like the last-minute, I try to grab my camera to get some shots of the kiddos in action. And always, always I'm so glad I did. Looking back, my favorite photos are the spontaneous, in the moment shots. But a good old-fashioned posed picture is just as precious. I love pictures so much because they capture what sometimes words can't express. You can't help but see the distinct personalities, feelings and features of each child. And isn't it amazing just how different each sibling is? Together I'm certain that these four make up the sweetest little family I could have ever imagined.
Henry. At eight he no longer sees himself as a little boy, but isn't quite as grown-up as he'd like to be either. He still finds so much comfort in the safe cocoon of our family but is just starting to spread his wings and establish an identity separate from us. It is both heartbreaking and lovely. He is so, so brave and I know that this school year has not been easy for him. His days are a swirl of love, responsibility, the need to distance himself and the pull to protect his brother. It is a lot to ask of one little boy.
Charlie. This has been such a year of growth for Charlie. His speech is taking off and if all else fails there is no doubt that Charlie could beat anyone in a game of charades. He will pull out all the stops to make his opinion/wants/needs known. He has also become so aware of his limitations. His frustration is real but his tenacity is greater. Those traits serve him well. Little dude is also mastering scissors and getting pretty darn good with his colors. Oh and he's never met a sweet treat that he didn't like.
William. He is healthy, praise God. He is all spunk and sweetness. He is smart as a whip and stubborn as a mule. And funny, he's really funny. He is my little buddy, afternoons are ours – eating lunch, doing chores, and puttering around the house together. He's obviously not the baby of the house anymore but in a way I think he will always be my baby. I sort of wish I could freeze him in time right now.
And Caroline. My daughter. Daughter. Someone spoke that word to me the other day and for some reason it just hit me. We have a daughter. Isn't she lovely? And she squeals! High-pitched little girl squeals. And she talks and smiles and coos. She also knows how to wear a serious expression. She is alert as can be and always on the look-out. With three boys flying through the house who can blame her? She is sweet and she is spicy. She is opinionated yet laid back. She just might be the most relaxed of all our children. This is something I never would have said four months ago. Go figure.
The more I write and ramble I realize that it's difficult to separate my story from the story of my children, or at least the story of their childhood. My hope is that through all of these photos and ramblings my children will one day look back and see how grateful I was for each one of them. I hope they see a mom who loved them unconditionally, stumbled right alongside them, prayed over their mistakes, laughed often with them and did her best to hand her mountain of worries over to the Lord. I hope they see a mom who was far from perfect, but loved them so much.

Carl Hagelin Faces Disciplinary Hearing
NEW YORK -- Rangers rookie Carl Hagelin has a hearing scheduled Sunday for his hit on Senators captain Daniel Alfredsson during Ottawa's 3-2 overtime win against New York on Saturday.
Hagelin earned a five-minute elbowing major for the play at 10:32 of the second period. Alfredsson left the game and did not return.
A little surprised as this type of aggression was never seen at U-M or to date for the Rangers but this sort of thing is far from unordinary in the NHL playoffs.

Acculturation and Intergroup Communication
Richard Y. Bourhis
Acculturation is the process of bidirectional change that occurs when two ethnolinguistic groups come in sustained contact with one another. Acculturation usually occurs between groups of unequal power, status, and demographic background. At stake for the unity of multilingual states are intergroup relations between language minorities and majorities that yield harmonious to conflictual outcomes. The Interactive Acculturation Model (IAM) is adapted to intergroup relations between language communities in four parts. The first part of the model provides an overview of the ethnolinguistic vitality framework accounting for the strength of minority/majority language communities as they struggle to gain the institutional support they need to develop as distinctive and thriving language communities. The second part of the IAM offers an analysis of the pluralist, civic, assimilationist, and exclusionist ideologies that underpin language policies regulating the co-existence of minority/majority language communities. The third part examines the acculturation orientations endorsed by majority and minority language group speakers. The fourth part of the IAM proposes that the interaction of majority and minority acculturation orientations yield intergroup communication outcomes that may range from harmonious, problematic, to conflictual. Taken together, the IAM model offers a conceptual tool for analyzing the fate of linguistic minorities as they seek to survive in the dominant majority group environments of post-modern globalizing states.
Aging and Organizational Communication
Robert M. McCann
In the last 20 years or so, the field of intergenerational communication as seen from an intergroup perspective has evolved to encompass a wide range of social, cultural, and relational contexts. Research into communication and age in organizations represents one particularly exciting and rapidly changing area of investigation within the intergenerational communication domain. The workplace, by its very nature, is rich with intergroup dynamics, with age in/out group distinctions being but one of many intergroup characterizations. Stereotypical age expectations—by management and coworkers alike—can serve as powerful harbingers to behavioral outcomes such as ageist communication, considerations of (early) retirement and reduced and/or lost training among older workers, and even reduced intentions among young individuals to take up careers involving older people. Ageist behaviors (including communication) are also at the core of many types of discriminatory practices toward older (and sometimes younger) workers. Age diversity strategies, which include intergenerational contact programs, cross-generational mentoring, age diverse teams, and the use of positive symbols of older age, are becoming more common in organizations.
Apprehension and Anxiety in Communication
Diyako Rahmani
Intergroup anxiety is a form of restlessness and negative feeling caused by communicating with someone with a different social and cultural identity. Just like any other form of anxiety, intergroup anxiety has negative consequences, such as disability in social interactions, weak cognitive performance, and even life consequences. Intergroup anxiety is the result of fear of being disapproved, embarrassed, and rejected across different racial, ethnic, religious, and social groups' interactions. Theoretically, intergroup anxiety is influenced by the previous experiences one has had with the members of other groups, one's knowledge of other groups, and the situation in which one interacts with other groups. Intergroup anxiety has behavioral, cognitive, and affective consequences. There are different theories of communication that explain the nature and function of intergroup anxiety. Uncertainty reduction theory, for example, defines anxiety as a result of uncertainty and asserts that to maintain communication, parties should decrease their uncertainty and consequently their anxiety. Anxiety/uncertainty management theory focuses on anxiety and argues that to have effective communication the level of intergroup anxiety should be managed between a minimum and a maximum threshold. A decrease in anxiety and uncertainty is also essential to intercultural adaptation. Different factors can increase the amount of anxiety in intergroup contexts, namely ethnocentrism, prejudice, and discrimination. These factors are related to individuals' feeling of threat due to one or some of the following: intergroup conflict, unequal group status, in-group identification, knowledge of out-group, and intergroup contact. To settle intergroup conflicts individuals are advised to establish more high-quality intergroup contacts and to change the way they make distinctions among various groups. Quality intergroup contact can be reached through strategies such as establishing cross-cultural friendships and intergroup disclosure. One form of intergroup anxiety is intercultural communication apprehension, which is the apprehension individuals feel due to real or imagined intercultural communication. Intercultural communication apprehension is positively correlated with uncertainty and ethnocentrism, and negatively correlated with intercultural willingness to communicate.
Behavioral Indicators of Discrimination in Social Interactions
Abigail R. Corrington, Mikki Hebl, and Jo-Ann Tsang
A growing number of studies are utilizing different sorts of behavioral indicators as measures of prejudice and discrimination. Although there are few foolproof behavioral indicators of discrimination (cf. verbal articulations of overt discrimination), patterns of behaviors can often be reliable indicators of discrimination. There are three sets of behavioral indicators. First, there are verbal behaviors such as overt insults or the use of pejorative words to describe stigmatized individuals. Such verbal statements, particularly when overt, make attributions of perceiver prejudice very straightforward. Such exchanges appear to be on the rise and are particularly worthy of study following the apparent 2016 "whitelash" and resistance to acting in ways deemed to be "politically correct." Other forms of verbal behaviors involve more indirect expressions of prejudice, such as ambiguous comments and subjective references. Second, there are paraverbal behaviors that may index discrimination. For instance, individuals' tone and pacing of speech may intentionally or unintentionally signal their disapproval or dislike of a stigmatized target. These behaviors are less commonly studied by social scientists but provide indicators about an individual's intentions toward a stigmatized target. Third and finally, there are both nonverbal microbehaviors (e.g., gestures, eye contact) and macrobehaviors (e.g., avoidance, helping behavior). Behavioral measures—both classic and more state-of-the-art—that might serve as indicators of discrimination have been identified in recent research, and researchers should continue to learn more about them and use them.
Cancer Communication Science: Intergroup Perspectives
Lisa Sparks and Gary L. Kreps
At the heart of cancer communication research is an effort both to increase knowledge and to identify practical strategies for improving cancer communication and for improving prevention and control of cancer, as well as for addressing cancer care issues from theoretical and applied communication perspectives across the continuum of cancer care. One important theoretical approach to consider in cancer communication science is taking an intergroup approach to cancer care. The challenge moving forward is to develop cancer communication research programs that combine important theoretical and applied perspectives, focusing on prevention strategies that can help reduce cancer risk, incidence, morbidity, and mortality, and to promote the highest quality of life for people of every age and every background.
Collective Protest, Rioting, and Aggression
Stephen Reicher
In understanding crowd psychology and its explanation of conflict and violence, there are different theoretical approaches that turn on different understandings of communication processes. There are three models of communication in the crowd worth reviewing: classic, normative, and dynamic. Classic models suggest that crowd members are influenced by an idea of emotion presented to them. Normative models suggest that influence is constrained by what is seen as consonant with group norms. And, finally, dynamic models examine how that which becomes normative in the group depends upon intergroup relations. The last of these approaches can explain the patterned, socially meaningful and yet changing nature of crowd action. Crowd action, itself, is a form of communication because it serves to shape the social understandings of participants as well as the social understandings of those beyond the crowd. It is argued that the nature and centrality of crowds contribute to the understanding and creating of social relations in society.
Communicating Personal and Social Identity in Adolescence
Elisabetta Crocetti and Monica Rubini
A main developmental task for young people is to form a coherent and stable sense of personal and social identity. In fact, in adolescence (from ages 10 to 18), the multiple biological, cognitive, and social changes that occur stimulate young people to rethink about themselves, to reflect on the kind of person they want to become, and to find their own place in the society. Similarly, in emerging adulthood (from ages 19 to 29), young people have the possibility to explore a large array of alternatives in multiple life domains (e.g., education, work, relationships, worldviews) before enacting enduring adult commitments. Process-oriented identity models have been proposed to capture the dynamic process by which young people form and revise their identity over time, committing to relevant life domains, reflecting on their choices, and reconsidering them when they no longer fulfill personal aspirations and/or social expectations.
This dynamic process is strongly intertwined with interpersonal and group communication processes. In fact, youth identity formation does not occur in a social vacuum; rather, young people form their identity by means of continuous interactions with significant others and relevant social groups. In particular, in youth, family, peers, and school represent main social contexts in which communication processes are likely to affect young people's identities. Thus, communication processes are crucial for obtaining identity-relevant information that might foster individuals' reflection on themselves and processes of social comparisons. Furthermore, through communication processes young people can manage their own reputation, striving to achieve and maintain a good reputation within relevant groups. Individuals' efforts to enhance reputation are, indeed, important for gaining symbolic (e.g., satisfaction of esteem needs) and instrumental (e.g., the likelihood to be trusted by others and becoming influential) benefits that are important for youth psychosocial adjustment and well-being.
Communicating Religious Identities
Renate Ysseldyk
Religion encompasses many forms of communication: between groups, within groups, and with God (or other deities). Such communication can be especially powerful when group members highly identify with their religious group and the beliefs therein. Equally, it can be divisive, as evidenced by religion-based intergroup conflict and intolerance (which often overlaps along ethnic or political lines). However, not all religious communication is verbal or explicit. Religious individuals also commonly transmit their beliefs, values, and identities through symbols, physical spaces, and music. Likewise, communication with God is often pursued with silent prayer, meditation, or ritual, which also serve to reinforce one's spirituality alongside religious group boundaries. Taken together, these varying forms of communication have implications not only for religious intergroup relations (e.g., intergroup contact or conflict), but also for intragroup relations (e.g., the strengthening of social ties) and individual health outcomes (e.g., effective communication with health care providers and coping practices). Given the importance of religious identity for many individuals, the benefits for individual well-being and intragroup relations, and yet the intergroup strife that religious group divisions can incite, the ways in which we communicate our religious group identities deserve closer attention.
Communication Accommodation Theory and Intergroup Communication
Yan Bing Zhang and Makiko Imamura
Group memberships provide a system of orientation for self-definition and self-reference in the process of relating to and managing social distance with others, and the use of language and communication serve central roles in the processes. In the nearly four decades since its inception as speech accommodation theory, communication accommodation theory has been used in multidisciplinary, multilingual, and multicultural contexts for understanding when, how, and why we, as speakers, accommodate to each other's languages and styles of communication. In CAT's theoretical domain, accommodation refers to the ability, willingness, and strategies to adjust, modify, or regulate individuals' language use and communication behaviors. Specifically, approximation strategies such as convergence, divergence, maintenance, and complementarity are conceptualized in the earlier developmental stages of CAT, with other strategies such as interpretability, discourse management, and interpersonal control added to the list at later stages. With its strong intergroup features, CAT is a robust theory that offers explicit motivational analysis to account for intergroup communication behaviors and intergroup relations. Blossomed initially in a multilingual and multicultural context in Quebec, Canada in the 1970s, CAT connects well with other existing theories on cultural adaptation, intergroup contact, and intergroup relations. Yet, CAT distinguishes itself from other theories as it attends to the interactive communication acts and processes and relates them to other sociocultural constructs, while interpreting and predicting the social, relational, and identity outcomes.
Communication, Aging, and Culture
Robert M. McCann
Research into age and culture strongly suggests that people of different adult generations, regardless of culture, typically regard others and act in ways that display bias in favor of one's own age group. While people across cultures share some basic patterns of aging perceptions, there is considerable variance in views on older people from one country to the next. Over the past two decades, the tenor of communication and aging research has shifted dramatically. Traditional research into aging across cultures painted a picture of Asia as a sort of communicative oasis for elders, who were revered and communicated to by the younger generations in a respectful and mutually pleasing manner. Compelling evidence now suggests the opposite, which is that (interregion variability in results notwithstanding) elder denigration may be more pronounced in Eastern than Western cultures. Accelerated population aging, rural-to-urban shifts in migration, new technologies, rapid industrialization, and the erosion of cultural traditions such as filial piety, may partially account for these results. Additionally, there are well-established links between communication and the mental health of older people. Specifically, communication accommodation in all of its forms (e.g., over accommodation, nonaccommodation, accommodation) holds great promise as a core predictor of a range of mental health outcomes for older people across cultures.

I have a short frame Malvern Star dragstar that I am going to restore. It has the first version fork, with the chromed brass cover on a sloping crown. I am trying to find out exactly when the Dragstar first appeared. I have a Retail Cycle Trader's price book from 1968, with the Malvern Star Dragstar on the cover, and the Speedwell Mustang on page 3. The mustang ad says 'The wild new look on wheels'. Both bikes are represented as line drawings, and both are represented with a 'Raleigh' type tubular fork crown. I dont remember ever seeing this actual crown on a Dragstar or Mustang. They are both shown with the Shimano 333 stick shift with a white body and white T bar.
I need to know whether anyone knows for sure if these bikes appeared for Christmas 1967.
There are plenty of references on the net along the lines 'introduced '1960's, or 'introduced late 1960's'.
I would also like to know exactly when the long frame Malvern Star Dragstar was introduced. From memory, this was at least a couple of years later, say 1970?

My understanding is that the first 20 inch dragster style bike was the American Schwinn Stingray first marketed in 1963. The English Raleigh Company responded with the
Raleigh Rodeo in 1966 and their Fireball in 1968. These 2 Raleigh bikes had the dimpled fork crowns and one of them had the bullet style chainguard similar to the Speedwell Mustang. I have an idea that Malvern Star launched their mid sized Dragster bikes in the late 1960's and that it was not until some years later when the long frames were marketed that Dragstars and Mustangs became hugely popular in Australia.

High-Torque AC-Induction Motor Makes Electric Racer PossibleBy Susi | Published on Dec 03,2015
If you fire up the Formula race car that Raser Technologies recently built, don't expect to hear the roar of the engine. Because there isn't one. Raser's racer instead runs solely on electric power from a bank of more than 30 12V batteries and a proprietary drive system based on an ac-induction pancake motor. In dynamometer testing, this drive system has generated as much as 420 ft-lb of torque, enough to produce 500 horsepower at 6,250 rpm. Raser even tested the car at the Grand Prix course in Monaco in early April. Later that month, at the SAE World Congress, Indy 500 winner Danny Sullivan put the car through its paces.
Yet despite its outward appearance and the company it keeps, the Raser car should not be confused with a real race car. In fact, all of its trials so far have intentionally been conducted below highway speeds. "It's not really engineered for speed," says Timothy Fehr, Raser's senior vice president and chief technologies officer. What it is engineered for is showing the world that ac-induction motors can take on pricier permanent magnet motors in transportation applications that need to pack lots of torque in a small space without turning up the heat.
And in this regard, Raser's race car serves as a powerful demonstration. According to Fehr, the 67-kg ac-induction "P2" pancake motor that powered the car has a torque density of 35 Nm/, when coupled with Raser's proprietary "Symetron" drive. "With conventional design practice, you would expect less than 25 Nm/, for an ac-induction motor," he says.
Looked at from a different perspective, these motors achieve such a high torque density because they run efficiently while the motor generates high peak torque levels. And this, in Fehr's view, represents the biggest selling point for Raser's technology. "We're able to extract a greater continuous torque at higher efficiencies from induction motors than was possible with current design practice," he says, explaining that the efficiency of traditional ac motors "quickly ramps off" when those motors are operated above their rated torque. At two times that rated torque, he says, the efficiency typically falls to about 85 percent from more than 90 percent. At three times that torque, efficiency usually drops even further, often to about 60 percent.
Raser's technology represents an attempt to preserve efficiency when the motor works its hardest. And Fehr says that Raser's motors, when run with the company's Symetron drives, lose less than two percent of their efficiency at twice their rated torque and lose only three to four percent at three times that torque. "We've even run motors at four or five times their design torque with acceptable results," he claims.
And every bit of efficiency really does count, especially for those engineers trying to squeeze motors into tight spaces. "A two percent improvement in efficiency typically equates to a 10 percent reduction in motor size for the same power out of the motor," notes George Holling, Raser's chief engineer.
How does Raser do it? The company's engineering executives treat the answer to that question something like a state secret-an understandable position given that the company has not yet commercialized its motor technology. Fehr will only say that Raser has made physical modifications to existing ac-induction motors based on the recognition of some "gaps in current design theory." For his part, Holling describes the Symetron controller technology as having attributes of VF and vector drives. "The technology has the advantages of a vector drive with the simplicity of a VF drive," he says, adding only that Raser has developed algorithms that provide the control of vector drive without the need for expensive high-resolution current sensors or microprocessors. "The Symetron hardware is very simple," he says.
Some tenuous clues to what Raser is doing might be found in the only patent it has been awarded so far (U.S. Patent 6,847,186). Issued not for a traditional ac-induction motor but for something the company calls a "resonant motor," this patent describes a motor with an air gap as much as 10 times larger than accepted design practice would dictate. According to the patent, this large air gap imparts a "pronounced magnetic inductance to the motor itself." Connected to a capacitor, the motor then functions as the inductor in a resonant (LCR) circuit. When powered, this circuit oscillates, and these oscillations are used to excite the motor, eliminating traditional drive electronics and PWM synthesis. "The inherent oscillatory characteristics of the resonant LCR circuit produce a sinusoidal ac voltage for self-commutation of power switches and efficient operation without resorting to PWM and the accompanying switching losses at high carrier frequency," the patent states.
None of this is to suggest that the P-2 motor and Symetron controller found in the race car are based on this particular patent. For example, the Symetron control technology does currently use "an efficient form of PWM," according to Holling. And he adds that all of Raser's physical modifications to traditional ac-induction motors "stay within the existing motor infrastructure, meaning that we maintain the same slot fill."
Fehr also cautions against reading too much into that single patent. "It won't tell you much by itself," he says. And he notes that the company has recently applied for at least 20 additional patents. Still, he does acknowledge that some of the counterintuitive design thinking on display in the patent does inform the company's ac-induction motor technology. And he says the company will reveal more about the inner workings of its ac-induction motors when the company's patent position solidifies.
Yet Gulalo doesn't rule out the possibility that Raser's technology could be the real deal. "It may all be true for a very specific performance profile and application area," Gulalo says. If Raser's claims do pan out, the technology could prove to be an important breakthrough. As Fehr points out, the extra torque could allow design engineers to downsize motors, saving space and weight. Likewise, it could allow engineers to get extra power from a given frame size.Raser's claims about all extra torque with such low losses will likely stir some skepticism among those who know motors. George Gulalo, president of Motion Tech Trends, has seen his share of bold performance claims during more than 20 years as a consultant to clients in the motor industry. "Every time I see claims about such a drastic technology improvement, it seems they never materialize," he says. And that makes sense particularly with ac-induction motors, a mature technology whose design inputs and construction methods are well understood. "AC induction motors have been around a long time," he says. "It's hard to believe anyone could make them that much better."
There are cost implications, too. A truly high-performing ac-induction motor could serve as an alternative to permanent magnet motors containing expensive rare-earth materials. Fehr's estimates that an ac-induction motor at commercial production volumes could cost as much as 25 percent less than a comparable PM motor. And Holling says the Symetron controller will offer its vector-drive-like performance at VF-drive prices.
Both the performance and cost issues were put into play in the two broad application areas targeted by Raser. The first, as might be guessed from the race car demo, consists of transportation applications. Fehr sees hybrid vehicle motors as the single most important application. "That's where our performance, packaging, and cost reduction advantages matter the most," he says. Aside from its race car, the company has other transportation demonstrations and design projects in the works, too. The company has already built and is now running trials with a small, all-electric utility vehicle. And the U.S. Army Research Laboratory recently contracted Raser to design two integrated starter generators/alternators (ISAs) for use in the drive trains of future military wheeled vehicles. These pancake-shaped, in-line motors will be designed to provide both acceleration support and mobile power generation.
The second group of applications involve industrial uses that now require or could benefit from variable output electric motors. Fehr cites drilling equipment and HVAC blowers as two applications that might increasingly incorporate variable output motors-if the price is right. A variety of machine tool applications could also employ Raser's technology.
So far, Raser has built demonstration motors in the 5 to 500 hp range-or on frame sizes ranging from NEMA 145 to 254. "The technology is scaleable," Fehr says. The technology may also extend into other types of motors, too. Raser has plans to develop switched and variable reluctance motors, according to Fehr. In all cases, though, the company has no plans to manufacture the motors. "We plan to commercialize them strictly through licensing agreements," Fehr says.

The Borden Legacy - Focus
Many people know the name Carnegie because of their local public libraries, supported by the money of Andrew Carnegie. In Indiana, the name Lilly, for example, is connected with numerous buildings, projects, and charitable causes.
Carnegie, the Lilly family, and many others in the state and nation are easily recognized as philanthropists in the traditional sense. William W. Borden was also a philanthropist.
The small town of New Providence owed him much. One author has indicated that Borden's "personality is indelibly impressed upon the town, its institutions and the people" (Wilson, p. 7). The testimony of former students throughout this issue provides a measure of his influence.
The legacy of Borden, however, reached beyond his town. After his death, his scientific collections were given to the Smithsonian Institution and to Chicago's Field Museum. Parts of his collections went to several Indiana institutions.
The philanthropy of the people of Borden has preserved his memory through the restored Borden Museum, which now serves the town as a community center. Large and small contributions and volunteer efforts-including those of the Borden Institute Historical Society-have made this monument possible.
This issue opens with a discussion of Borden and education on page 3. Some influential youthful experiences are covered on pages 4 and 5.
On pages 6 and 7, we introduce his contributions to geology. On pages 8 and 9, we focus on his pivotal two years in Leadville, Colorado.
His important Borden Institute is highlighted on pages 10 and 11. The Borden Museum is the focus on pages 12 and 13.
"Behind the Scenes" on page 14 again focuses on philanthropy as volunteerism while pointing out an important primary source. Page 15 lists research resources.

The new neon green Seahawks alternate jersey, shown here assaulting our senses so completely, turns out to be a joke, perpetrated by those rascals at Uniwatch Blog. From Uniwatch's Jeremy Brahm: "I was part of the five people over at Uniwatchblog who put on the fake Seahawks uniform. Paul Lukas did the writing, and Paulie Soto did the artwork. Phil Hecken and Michael Princip were also involved." This is the team, by the way, that in 2007 came up with this.
April 1 is a minefield, I'll tell you. Even though I first saw the item on April 2.
Now if you could just wear that jersey with this helmet, you'd have something; what, I have NO idea. Tampa Bay Buccaneers, you are now off the hook.
And by the way, the Los Angeles Times is predicting that there's a good chance Mark Sanchez will be wearing these duds.

Meet Dennis Shannakian
Dennis Shannakian began working at De Anza College as a student employee in April 1997 and became a full-time classified professional in September 1999 in the Office of College Life. He has served as a Classified Senate senator and president, chief steward in SEIU (the previous classified union), and a member of the board of ACE (Association of Classified Employees, the current union).
"I've served on a number of committees over the years and continue to do so," Shannakian says. "I've worked with many students throughout the years, and one thing I will say about working in this area is that it doesn't get boring."
John Cognetta, his nominator and coordinator of Student Activities, says Shannakian has contributed countless hours for the Office of College Life that have improved the success of students and provided service to many college departments as well. "He provides the necessary technical skills for the very popular SmartPass and for student and staff photo IDs," Cognetta says. "He tracks all the requests for the DASB budget, which affects most college departments, assists students with their computing and website needs, helps with the Flea Market when needed, and is always available to assist any office that seeks his help."
Cognetta says Shannakian has a "can do" attitude and consistently goes out of his way to help students, even on the weekends. "He will come in on a Saturday if this is the only time a student can come in for a photo ID," Cognetta says.
"With so many students there's never a shortage of something interesting going on," Shannakian says. "I'm very happy to have had these opportunities and I couldn't have done it without the support and help of my colleagues, John Cognetta and La Donna Yumori-Kaku, and our dean, Michele LeBleu-Burns."
