Located in Brooklyn, Ned Martin is inspired by hectic city life. His work touches on the subjects of nature and community, which are drawn from his childhood memories of rural Pennsylvania and Northern Maryland. Martin's work is a commentary on our global society, and the idea that everything is connected as one. After studying Fine Arts at Towson State University in Maryland, Martin continued his formal art training at the Schuler School of Fine Arts in Baltimore. Embracing his training and his meticulous process, Martin continues to grind his own paints. He has painted en plein air on the River Seine in Paris, Scotland, and the vineyards of Italy, all of which have shaped his artistic vision.
Reclaimed aluminum printing plates have become Martin's sole painting surface. He often leaves a bit of aluminum plate visible through the painted surface to enhance the depth of the work. "The imagery of the used printing plates is part of my expression—current social commentary that becomes embedded in the art forever," Martin explains. To view Martin's full biography, click here.
"I have long believed artists are like mirrors. My job is to reflect that which others are missing while they go about their busy lives. I somehow wish my paintings were less biased, yet, my own emotions from life experiences are in every painting I create. While I still struggle with the idea, I must be completely honest that every painting is a self-portrait."

Last month the Secretary of State's office announced that the Republican Party has grown by 4 percent in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Still the minority party in the state, the GOP is growing in voter registrations, and on a steady climb upward.
This past Saturday evening at the 2014 Lincoln-Reagan Dinner, I was pleased to announce that Henry County is no exception to the increase.
In fact, in the past four years, Republican Party voter registration has risen over 10 percent.
Graduating is weird. Seriously, it's one of the most bizarre ceremonies we, as human beings take part in. We wear some ugly robes and hats, trudge across a stage, take a piece of rolled-up paper from some other robe-wearing goons and-voila!-you're an adult.

Scenic roads, beautiful landscapes, grazing cattle, friendly and hard-working people are just some of the reasons why I like living in Henry County. Often we take for granted the many assets that this county has to offer, but if we want to bring more business into our county, we need to promote our county. All of us should have community investment in the future of our county's growth.

"Do you need something to do?" ranks among the top questions that I hate to hear.
Having that query posed to me probably means my features have twisted themselves into an expression of bafflement or irritation.
As someone who likes to stay occupied and keep working towards goals, I want to avoid a lot of downtime.
Fortunately for me, then, the business of setting up my new home means there's been no shortage.
This morning the dust is settling, and after a long campaign season, we have discovered who the winners of partisan primaries are. Those who will advance to the general election in November, and a few who have actually won their elections.
To those who have won their primary and face no opposition in November, congratulations.
The time has come for winners and losers to come together and focus on fighting the common foe.
May has been an exciting month for our cities around the county. Campbellsburg is making real progress in finishing the Community Center, Pleasureville is looking forward to the opening of the Amish Restaurant for lunch only on May 30, Eminence has McDonald's opening on May 29 at 5 a.m. and the Eminence Apothecary has its doors open as well. New Castle is looking forward to the new drug store being open, and Henry County has much to offer to any who might want to check us out.
When the Local reporters go to city council and fiscal court meetings, more often than not, we are the only citizens there. And I honestly feel as though it is the job of the newspaper to attend these meetings and let our readers know what's going on. We're happy to serve our readership in that capacity.
Sometimes, though, I wish citizens would take more interest in local government. I certainly don't expect folks to attend all those monthly meetings, but there is one simple thing people can do to take part in their local government – VOTE.

My relocation to Kentuckiana across the Appalachians from Virginia brought home my hoarding ways.
My wrestling match with all of my stuff to put it on rental trucks left me battered and bruised and exhausted, though not bloodied, at least.

It will take some time to gather the information, but one of this year's new laws has the potential to play a significant role when it comes to helping college students decide which career to pursue.
Let's take a look at one of the most under appreciated civic improvements ever — the public sidewalk.
These concrete walkways serve the citizens in a surprising variety of ways.
Consider: They can be used as places to exercise; as approaches to our commercial cores downtown; as a self-guided tour of our architecture and historic places — for example, as a vantage point to study an interesting old train station; or as a place to find an excuse to multitask and bask in the sunshine.

Have you ever heard a situation summed up in one word that couldn't be put any better in a lengthy speech?
In my 19 years as a reporter, I couldn't count the number of "Times" that's out there on the banner of periodical print products. It's probably also not news to readers that more than a few publications named "the news" exist.
But there's only one informational outlet that I've ever found called "the Local."
Turnover in the workplace is always difficult. While a position is vacant, others on staff have to fill in the gaps left by the recently-departed – on the job, not this world.
Invariably, someone has to work overtime, not everything gets done and sometimes things get missed, either unavoidably or accidentally.

Ronald Reagan once said "Republicans believe every day is the Fourth of July, but the democrats believe every day is April 15."
As we mark the passing of another Tax Day it is interesting to note that until 1862 there were no significant taxes paid by individuals.
The war of 1812 brought us the first sales tax to help pay for that war, but when the debt was paid off in 1817, are you ready for this? Congress did away with those taxes.
A nice fellow has been traveling around the county lately, soliciting the assistance of others in helping those who are unable to help themselves. I intend to support his cause. I have seen his presentation twice—it is a gentle, soft-sell pitch in which he asks for our help. During both presentations he used the phrase "this is not a hand out."
Traditionally, the last day of a legislative session is set aside just to consider any vetoes the governor may make. Recently, however, the General Assembly has also used the time to wrap up a few lingering issues, and this year is no different.

If I were to take a poll of all of Kentucky, I wonder how many people would tell me that they had never used a library for anything. My guess is very few. Libraries are the sort of institutions that you use without ever realizing how important they are, and how strange life would be if they weren't there.

We are now in Hindley, Lancashire, England. We drove down here today to crash at the home of Hilton and Rhona McCabe. I met them while as a missionary here about 8 years ago. The friendship has continued and we have kept in contact.
We are waiting to hear word from Salt Lake City. We are supposed to be closing on our home in Oklahoma City. Hopefully everything works out. We will find out tomorrow I guess.
Last night we spent our evening in Edinburgh, Scotland. We walked throughout the city, saw the castle, the Holyrood residence, and the cathedral. Amanda got to see her world famous Mary Kings Close. It was very interesting. We got our hostel for the equivalent of $30 which we thought was a gonga deal.
We landed in Prestwick on Thursday after flying out early from Charleroi Airport near Brussels. We then picked up our hired car and drove to Glasgow and on to Edinburgh. It took me a little bit, but I quickly adjusted to getting back on the wrong/left side of the road.
It is late and I am too tired to write more of our travels today or of what we did in Edinburgh. We did stop to visit Downham, Clitheroe in Lancashire today where the entire town joined the church and later emigrated to Zion. Now we are back in the old mission. My second visit since being released. It is good to be back.

The Cincinnati Bengals and former Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison will try to complete a deal this week, a source familiar with situation told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
Harrison and former Miami Dolphins linebacker Karlos Dansby each visited Cincinnati last week, and while the Bengals are interested in Dansby, a deal with Harrison seems more attainable and realistic at this time.
The Bengals have a need at outside linebacker, as 2012 starter Manny Lawson signed with the Buffalo Bills this offseason.
The 34-year-old Harrison, who was set to make $6.57 million in 2013, was released by the Steelers last month after refusing to take a pay cut. His agent said his client would be open to a return to the Steelers, but the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported that the team is not interested in a reunion.
Harrison was meeting with the Baltimore Ravens on the same day Baltimore reached agreement with linebacker Elvis Dumervil, which ended the team's interest in signing Harrison. Otherwise he has received little interest from teams looking for a linebacker.
Harrison missed the first three games of the 2012 season with a minor knee injury but was one of Pittsburgh's steadiest performers over the second half of the year. He finished with six sacks, tied for the team lead, and a pair of forced fumbles as the Steelers finished No. 1 in total defense for the fourth time since Harrison became a starter.
He has 64 career sacks and was named The Associated Press' Defensive Player of the Year in 2008 after finishing with a career-best 16 sacks.
Information from ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter and The Associated Press was used in this report.

We learned this week that Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Mike Wallace had been demoted to "co-starter" status with Emmanuel Sanders, according to coach Mike Tomlin.
This murky designation led to talk that the slumping Wallace would lose playing time, though that's not necessarily going to be the case. NFL.com's Aditi Kinkhabwala reported this week that Wallace likely will remain an active part of the Steelers' game plan when they meet the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.
The protocol in the receivers' meeting room is no different, and Wallace has had the same practice reps on the field. According to Kinkhabwala, no one really believes Wallace will play any less than he usually does.
This sounds more like a motivation ploy by Tomlin, who has watched his big-play threat turn into a glorified possession receiver this season. Wallace said the "co-starter" designation doesn't push him.
With quarterback Ben Roethlisberger down with rib and shoulder injuries and the Steelers riding a two-game losing streak, Wallace's big-play ability is needed more than ever. If he remains off the radar, how inclined will Pittsburgh be to bring him back in 2013?

Townsend, Sherrod With Career Nights
ITHACA, N.Y. – Yale's offensive struggles lasted just one night. After shooting 31.1 percent from the field against Columbia on Friday, the Bulldogs responded in a big way. Yale executed near flawlessly in the first half Saturday against Cornell, built a 14-point lead and went on to an impressive 79-70 victory over the Big Red before 2,150 at Newman Arena.
"We had much better offensive flow tonight," said James Jones, The Joel E. Smilow, Class of 1954 Head Coach of Men's Basketball. "We got back to doing what we have been doing."
Sophomores Matt Townsend and Brandon Sherrod both had career nights to lead the way. Townsend was 7-of-10 from the field and scored 19 points, while Sherrod added 13 points, nine rebounds and five blocks in 24 minutes off the bench.
"Matt and Brandon really came up big for us," Jones said.
Yale shot 55.6 percent in the opening 20 minutes and had a 38-24 lead at the intermission.
"Coach [Jones] really emphasized after last night's game that our offense was stagnant," said Townsend, who scored 13 of his points in the first half. "We came out motivated to move and cut more. When our offense is flowing, we are tough to stop."
Townsend has played a big role in Yale's offensive improvement over the course of the season. In his last three games, he is averaging 14.7 points and shooting 65.4 percent from the field.
"Matt is relentless. He never stops working," Jones said. "He has gotten to the point where he is comfortable with what we are doing offensively."
Townsend and Sherrod had plenty of support. Austin Morgan finished with 15 points and Greg Kelley scored 10. Javier Duren added seven points, three rebounds and three assists.
Errick Peck and Nolan Cressler paced Cornell (13-16, 5-7 Ivy) with 19 points apiece.
The Bulldogs (12-17, 6-6 Ivy) will enter the final weekend in a tie with Brown for third place in the Ivy League.
Saturday's win was Yale's first in Newman Arena since 2004.
Despite the big halftime lead, there were some tense moments in the second half. Cressler hit a three-pointer that pulled the Big Red within 55-50 with eight minutes remaining. Sherrod answered with a bucket, but Peck hit a three-pointer to cut it to four.
Yale, though, scored the next four points. The Big Red got back within six, but Morgan's three-pointer with 3:30 left proved to be the dagger, giving the Bulldogs a nine-point lead. Before long, the advantage was 15 and Yale cruised home.
Morgan scored 13 of his 15 points in the second half.
NOTES: Yale was 6-of-11 (54.5 percent) from three-point range in the game… The Bulldogs outscored the Big Red 25-8 from the foul line… Cornell attempted 70 shots and shot just 37.1 percent… The Big Red grabbed 20 offensive rebounds but turned them into to only 15 second-chance points… Yale had 15 assists on its 24 field goals… The Bulldogs committed only nine turnovers… Yale closes out the regular season by hosting Princeton on Friday and Penn on Saturday. Tipoff on both nights is slated for 7 p.m… Yale's three seniors – Morgan, Michael Grace and Sam Martin -- will be honored before Saturday's game.

Food Chains: Revealing The True Cost Of A Purchase
Posted in Business,Economics,Food + drink,Living,Society,VideosNovember 20, 2014No comments
Transparency in the food supply is more important than ever. It is great to know more about where our food is grown, raised and what it contains. However, for those of us who wonder where our food actually comes from, we also need to be aware of who is behind the production. Farmers, laborers and families represent the force behind our food supply. A new must-see documentary has just been released called Food Chains that exposes this largely unnoticed operation and the real people who are behind stocking our shelves. The spotlight is placed on the U.S. agricultural industry, government… read more

I recently received the following e-mail query:
What do you think about the fringe criticisms against atheism that talk about the setbacks of overly concrete/logical thinking and a lack of abstract, emotional capacity commonly associated with atheists?
They criticize atheists (especially Dawkins and people like Dawkins) for being dull, unpleasant, lacking machismo and being unappealing to women. They argue that overly concrete thinking is detrimental to living the dynamic and largely abstract life outside of scientific institutions and number crunching facilities. Popular psychology even attested and perpetuated this bullshit with labels like Aspergers which describes people who are book-smart but have no people skills. I can't cite any source that surveyed people with Aspergers and how many of them are religious or irreligious but I can guarantee a majority would be atheists.
The question is, is being 100% logical all the time really the right way to live an awesome and successful life?
You got things like music and art that you can't build or enjoy without a level of spiritual capacity. As an example, to fully enjoy the spirit of Christmas, you gotta suspend some logic about Santa Claus and just let loose to enjoy the holiday, especially for the children whom you wouldn't wanna ruin the fun for. Or watching cartoons and coming across many things that just don't make sense, like the characters not falling off a cliff as long as they don't look down and other inconsistencies in the plots of long-running anime episodes that you just don't wanna over-analyze or be too logical about because it ruins the fun and the whole point of the show which isn't to take it so seriously.
So essentially they are calling atheists a pack of basement-dwelling empty nerds who don't know how to have a good time, which I gotta admit isn't too far from the truth.
What do you think about all this?
My response was brief:
I don't think their accusations are remotely accurate…and tell us much more about those making those accusations than the target of them.
And apparently insufficient…so the author asked for more information:
Why not? Is it not true that those prone to atheism are much more concrete thinkers than those prone to religion? You have to admit there is a correlation.
Here's my response…
The fact that we're not prone to accepting fantasy-as-reality doesn't mean that we're emotionless robots or Vulcans, incapable of appreciating beauty.
I'd argue that, in fact, the opposite is true. The individuals that I've met in the atheist community, are rarely dull. To the extent that we're unpleasant, it stems from the frustrations of seeing reality treated as a minority position by individuals who credulously accept the supernatural while attempting to impose their religious views on other by legislation, coercion and indoctrination.
With respect to the lack of machismo or being unappealing to women, I find those claims absurd and sexist. They are particularly stupid charges that would be beneath response if it weren't worthwhile to expose the ignorance and privilege of those making the claim.
There's not a single public atheist figure that is advocating logic at the expense of emotion, humanity, beauty or empathy. (And if they're were such a person, the rest of the public atheists would be the first in line to point out that this individual certainly doesn't speak on behalf of other atheists).
There is no "spiritual" requirement for enjoying beauty or art…and such statements only demonstrate that the individuals have no concept of either the people their criticizing or the human condition. Most of my atheist friends greatly appreciate beauty, art, literature, fantasy, science fiction, music, films….the list goes on and on.
In addition to the television programs, podcasts, speaking engagements and activism efforts, I not only work a full-time job, but I take time to enjoy the world I live in. I read books (often fantasy and sci-fi), visit zoos, caves and museums, shop at craft fairs, hike and explore nature. I also crochet, make chain mail jewelry and oil paint. I play board games, card games, computer games and billiards. I am moved by great musical and artistic performances – occasionally to tears.
I do these things with my wife and with many other members of the atheist community. Dawkins has spoken many times about the beauty of nature. Hitchens has done so as well. I was fortunate to hear both of them speak publicly about this subject at the convention this past weekend.
As I said, the accusations aren't remotely accurate and can only be made by someone engaged in a quixotic and xenophobic dismissal of a perceived enemy. What a sad existence one must have to presume that those who don't share one's imaginary friend are somehow deficient and sub-human. Curiously, they've often adopted religious positions that relegate the entire glory of existence to the status of a doormat – a place to wipe one's feet while waiting for an afterlife. While their perceived enemy, to the extent that they've established anything akin to a religion, have largely adopted humanist positions.
And, as I've now wasted two e-mails responding to this absurd subject, I'll be posting it on the blog so the reply might help prevent others from asking this.
Thanks for the question and for pushing for a follow up…but I'm most definitely finished with this particular subject.

BUCKNER— If Oldham County coach Matt Brown could figure out why his team starts so slow, the outlook might be a little different for the Colonels.
In a similar tune to other games this season, Eastern was already up 6-0 on a touchdown pass four plays into the game. Again, Oldham County mounted a comeback but were still outplayed in nearly every statistic in falling to the Eagles 42-21.
"Since our guys are so young, I don't know if it's the thing that we think we just can't compete from the beginning," Brown said. "We start slow, don't get out of the gate as quickly as we could. We've always been slow starters out of the gate, but we've always been really talented and been able to make up for that. Right now, we're not as talented as we were before and we're so young."
By halftime, Eastern had marched to a 23-0 lead. All night, the Eagles controlled the tempo, most of it through the air where senior quarterback Tanner Evans completed 17 of 32 passes for 334 yards and four touchdowns.
Eastern also had 15 possessions in which in tallied 18 first downs.
"We knew we could back, it's just bigger, stronger, faster guys and with younger guys, a lot of time they get down," senior running back Corbin Axtell said. "Mentally, it gets in their head, rattles 'em."
The biggest resistance came from senior cornerback Garrett Wilder, who ended three Eagles drives with interceptions.
"We played them in a seven-on-seven league and they changed a lot on us," Wilder said. "We made some changes at half and pretty much shut their passing game down."
Offensively, the Colonels were outgained in total offense 458-154. Junior quarterback Brett Strnad completed just 10 of 27 passes for 97 yards, 32 of which came on a fade pass to Axtell at the beginning of the third quarter that led to a one-yard touchdown run by Strnad.
"We just started out slow and things just weren't rolling for us in the first half," Axtell said. "Blocking was shady, we weren't catching balls and sometimes that happens. Our offense just started out flat and that hurt us. You can't start out like that if you wanna win a game like this."
Despite a 2-6 record and despite a season that's had plenty of letdowns, it's not over for Oldham County. The Colonels travel to Ballard next week for another district game that could determine third place.
"We're still looking for that magic button to push," Brown said. "Hopefully we find it next week and maybe they understand that. Hopefully we can figure it out between now and next Friday."
If only the Colonels' start would match the game's start.

Paul Broca (1824-80)
Paul Broca was an innovative surgeon. He combined anthropology with medical research and practice, especially neurology. Throughout the 1850s he studied aphasia, conditions in which language is affected. In 1861 he became the first to demonstrate at autopsy that a speech defect was linked to a specific spot in the brain (known today as Broca's area). Broca's discovery saw renewed interest in the relationship between the physical brain and psychological and intellectual characteristics.
Broca founded the Anthropological Society of Paris, which linked comparative anatomy to anthropology, in 1859. He invented new instruments to measure physical differences, as he and his friend Alphonse Bertillon were convinced quantitative measurements revealed individual character and ability. While Bertillon identified individual criminals, Broca compared the average anatomy of different populations or 'races'. Broca and other scientists practising anthropometric measurement believed the skull's shape and size showed Europeans were superior.
Broca's practices now appear racist, but his politics were complicated. He was a left-wing atheist who argued against African enslavement. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Broca did not oppose the mixing of different racial or ethnic groups. However, his conclusions about the relationship between physical difference and ability helped foster racist and sexist theories. Many of these were not rejected until after the Second World War.

Are you using mauritiusdadd's PKGBUILD or mine? (You can get mine from the link in the first post, if you don't have it already.)
Btw, I have also uploaded a version of omniorbpy that does not conflict with pyorbit: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/omni … it-compat/

It worked with your PKGBUILD
I've updated the salome-med-git PKGBUILD to conform to current VCS standards. It doesn't work but at least it provides a starting point.
I still can't believe that a project this big, with this much potential, developed by such prominent companies, can have such a fucked up build system for so long. Apparently the V7_main branch should have a working cmake build system, but the python compilation still uses hard-coded, absolute system paths. It's like they're trying to prevent people from using it, which doesn't make any sense to me. An open-source project of this scale, with open git repositories, would quickly generate a vibrant community that would accelerate development. It would be a win-win situation all around.
Yes, this is my frustration talking. Even if we manage to hack some patches together, the packages would remain susceptible to changes with each commit and therefore remain unstable. Anyone who wants to use this software seriously will presumably need something far more reliable.
It's not just an Arch issue: http://www.salome-platform.org/forum/fo … 62434/view
Highlight from that page: admission that even in the V7_main branch the installation documentation is completely out of date. They should just replace that file with the message "good luck, Columbo!".
I also tried to compile the MED module and it cannot find the kernel module
it seems there are still some problems: the command
make DESTDIR="$pkgdir/" install-exec
installs only a part of the files neede by the program, while the others are installed using
make DESTDIR="$pkgdir/" install-data
However the last command invokes sphinx-build2 that searches for the kernel module
that is not installed yet!
I came to a possible solution to fix this problem and updated both the PKGBUILD and the patch.
Now the kernel module is correctly found but the compilation fails with the following errors

Maybe. I was unable to get the CodeAster packages to build the last time I tried (maybe half a year ago, probably more). Their project ecosystem is tangled together and many of the packages are notoriously difficult to compile from source in a clean way.
Basically, what we really need is a hit todo list that we can check off one-by-one. The list should include all of Salome, CodeAster and their dependencies. Until they get their build systems together, this will be a challenge.
Incidentally, this is one of the tasks I had hoped to address with arch-science, but the neverending onslaught on my free time has kept me postponing it indefinitely.
If you and/or anyone else is up for it, I will be glad to collaborate but I just don't have the time to take the lead on this right now. So far it seems that you have a clearer idea of what to do anyway, so lead on if you will.
Maybe. I was unable to get the CodeAster packages to build the last time I tried (maybe half a year ago, probably more).
There was (is?) a problem with Code_Aster and the gcc compiler, so that's why there were problems with the compilations. It works ok with the intel compiler though.

I am working on code-aster and I've almost finished with version 11.3 (I'll soon make available the PKGBUILDs on AUR ).
Problem with med probably is that code-aster uses med with long integers, whereas salome by default uses short integers.
On http://www.salome-platform.org/forum/forum_9/353097525 I posted a solution I found with previous version of salome.

I built the most important salome modules on archlinux.
You can find PKGBUILDs on AUR
- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/salome-kernel/
- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/salome-gui/
- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/salome-geom/
- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/salome-med/
- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/salome-smesh/
- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/salome-paravis/
- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/salome-yacs/
- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/salome-hexablock/
To build these packages I had to create custom versions of med and paraview
- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/med-salome/
- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/paraview-salome/
Tester are welcome!
Nice! I'll try to test these as soon as I can. From the PKGBUILDs it looks like they've finally done some work on their installation scripts.
Have you done anything with salome yet? If so, what is your opinion of it?
Probably a stupid question: I have problems with starting Salome. I executed the .sh files in /etc/salome/profile.d/.... and then tried to launch Salome. I get the following output:
Process Process-1:

A little late but here it goes…
The hip injury that forced me out of the Edmonton world cup ended up sticking around for our entire pre-London training camp in France. Pulling out of Edmonton was a good decision, but it didn't miraculously cure my hip. I still had a frustrating injury to deal with, and I foolishly thought that a few days rest would have me back up and running again. My body had other plans, and I went through a difficult 3 weeks of highs and lows, seeing very little progress forward. I like going to training camps and working so hard that I go to bed exhausted every day, but this camp was very different. Almost every ride I did was "easy", and my longest run was just 2 days before we left for London. 5 x (2min run, 1 min walk). Fantastic.
Things started to turn around on the last few days of the camp. I could walk and bike pain-free for the first time in a long while, and my mini-runs didn't aggravate anything. I'm not sure what made me think that I could possibly race a full triathlon on Saturday, but my competitiveness and love for racing made me determined to at least start the race. Of course my expectations were much lower than usual, and I promised to pull out of the race the second that I felt that I was making the injury worse. For some reason I thought that just maybe I could squeeze out a top 8 to secure a spot on the Olympic team. The truth is, coming into the most competitive race of the year severely underprepared is a bad idea. Also, going into a race uncertain if you'll be able to finish makes it very hard to mentally prepare for success. Still, I wanted to be familiar with the course incase I'm back for the Olympics next year and take as many positives out of the experience as I could.
So I started. And I finished. My hip was pain-free on the run so I was determined to finish the race, because dropping out at this point would have only been because I was doing badly, and this is not a good reason to pull out of a race. I heard someone say as I ran by "I've never seen her run that slow before!"… Yes, that's how slow I was running. I could hear people's full conversations as I passed by. I absolutely hated being passed by the other girls and watch them pull away from me while my legs wouldn't respond. This is not something that I've experienced before in a triathlon, and it's very mentally defeating! I knew that I wouldn't be able to stay with the leaders, but in all honestly I didn't think that I'd do THAT badly, and naturally I was upset and frustrated after the race. Only 8 points separate Barbara, Andrea and I, and a few places higher would have put me back in the lead. So close!!
I decided before the race that regardless of the outcome, I needed to walk away from the experience happy with my decision and with a positive outlook on everything. I certainly didn't want to leave London with a bad taste in my mouth, as I hope to be back here next year and I want to be excited and as best prepared as possible for this event. I'm now familiar with the course, the transition area, the layout of the venue, our accommodation and our logistics coming into the race. I also learned how to deal with media attention surrounding an upsetting and unfortunate circumstance, so this was good practice too. Another major positive is that my sister was in London for my race, so it was lots of fun to hang out with her and explore London after the race.
Thanks for the support, as always.

SALT LAKE CITY — University of Utah officials will honor the legacy of Rick Majerus by hanging a replica of his trademark white sweater from the rafters at the basketball arena where he coached 14 seasons and regularly led the Utes to the NCAA tournament.
Utah athletic director Chris Hill says there will be a moment of silence at Utah's next game and players will wear black patches in honor of a man he called a "basketball savant.' The 64-year-old Majerus died Saturday in Los Angeles while awaiting a heart transplant.
Hill made the announcement Monday on campus.
Majerus had been invited back previously to be inducted into Utah's Hall of Fame. The induction is still planned.

The New York Red Bulls talked all week about wanting to be unbeatable this season at Red Bull Arena, and they looked the part on Saturday.
Led by a hat trick from Thierry Henry – his first with the team – the Red Bulls won their second game of the season while keeping the Montreal Impact winless with a 5-2 victory in front of a crowd of 13,415 on a nippy afternoon.
The Impact began the game well, imposing their will in the midfield and creating chances through Sanna Nyassi against a Red Bulls team that did not look sharp.
That pressure paid off when Montreal opened the scoring in the 19th minute. Dane Richards attempted to clear the ball but barely got a touch, resulting in a bouncing ball that got away from Markus Holgersson. That bad touch from the center back allowed Nyassi to race onto the ball and fire home easily from close range.
OPTA Chalkboard: Henry's class too much for Impact
New York equalized when Thierry Henry headed home a beautiful cross from Rafa Marquez nine minutes later. The Mexican international was given plenty of space on the right side and he picked out Henry, who made a well-timed run and jumped in front of Zarek Valentin to head home his third goal of the season.
A response from the visitors nearly came in the 35th minute. After Marquez turned the ball over at midfield, Bernardo Corradi was in on goal but Ryan Meara cut off the angle and blocked the Italian's ensuing shot.
The Red Bulls were not as lucky four minutes later. Justin Mapp received a pass from Felipe Martins on the left flank, and was allowed time and space to drive toward goal by Holgersson and Jan Gunnar Solli. Mapp made the best of the opportunity, firing a low shot that beat Meara to the near post.
With Impact looking for their first-ever victory, the pressure continued to pile on the Red Bulls, as Montreal benefited from Nyassi's speed and constant runs up top.
But the hosts pulled level in first-half stoppage time after Matteo Ferrari was whistled for a foul on Dax McCarty inside the area. Kenny Cooper claimed the spot kick and scored his fourth goal of the season with a shot down the middle.
Cooper's goal may have changed the momentum of the game, as the Red Bulls came out of the intermission with more command of the midfield. That was partially due to the arrival of Teemu Tainio, who entered for an injured Rafa Marquez (groin strain). That resulted in more chances on goal for New York, which took the lead in the 56th minute.
Valentin forced a pass that was picked off by McCarty, and the Red Bulls midfielder dribbled forward before passing the ball to Henry at the top of the box. Henry turned and fired a pinpoint shot to the near post past Donovan Ricketts, who was at full stretch.
New York built on its lead in the 72nd through a finish from substitute Mehdi Ballouchy that was set up by Henry. Solli whipped in a low cross from the right that the veteran striker flicked on to Ballouchy, who got a slight touch on the ball to put it in back of the net.
Henry then capped the scoring and recorded his first hat trick as a Red Bull a minute before the death, knocking in a rebound after Ricketts spilled a shot from Cooper.
The Red Bulls' next game will see them travel to face the Columbus Crew next Saturday, their first road match against an Eastern Conference team this season. The Impact have a shorter turnaround, as they play Real Salt Lake at Rio Tinto Stadium on Wednesday.

- Return to policies page
A student with a PSR academic dispute should first contact the instructor in writing regarding the concern. If the student wishes to appeal the instructor's decision, he or she should bring the matter to the Assistant Dean for Academic Programs & Registrar. This phase of consultation may involve information gathering from involved parties, an attempt at a resolution, and the student may be advised to submit an Academic Petition form with relevant supporting documentation if needed. If the dispute is not resolved during this phase, or if the student is not satisfied with the decision of the Assistant Dean & Registrar, then the petition, supporting materials which include efforts to resolve the dispute, and any additional documentation the student wishes to provide will be forwarded to the Dean, who will determine to either pass on to an Academic Committee or the Faculty for deliberation. The decision of the Committee or Faculty is final. The student will be informed of the decision by the Dean's Office.
Academic disputes that are not related to a specific course or instructor should also be taken directly to the Assistant Dean for Academic Programs & Registrar, and a similar procedure of petitioning as described above may be implemented.
Grade disputes must be submitted in writing to the Assistant Dean for Academic Programs & Registrar within six months of the date the final grade is posted. Students are responsible for checking their grades online and when they are posted. Disputes after six months of posting will not be considered except in the case of clerical and/or instructor error. This time limit does not apply to grades of "I" (incomplete).
GTU Consortial Agreement Concerning Protocols for Responding to Student Complaints
Cross-registration of students in courses within the consortium is a valuable feature of the Graduate Theological Union. The GTU and all the member schools are committed to ensuring that students have appropriate recourse in the event that they have a complaint about some aspect of their experience while taking courses at a school other than their own. The following protocol is to be followed in any such cases, including but not limited to complaints concerning unfair discrimination, cultural insensitivity, sexual harassment, and disputes over grades and other forms of academic evaluation.
- Each school of the GTU is committed to giving students from all other schools access to its normal complaint process whenever they are taking courses or studying with faculty at the host school.
- Students are encouraged to attempt to resolve the complaint directly by raising the issue with the individual at the host school whose conduct is the focus of the complaint.
- If the matter cannot be resolved directly, the student should bring the complaint to the attention of the dean of the student's own school.
- The dean of the student's school will then contact the dean of the host school in order to help the student determine which policies and procedures at the host school are relevant in the situation.
- The normal policies and procedures of the host school will be followed, with the added proviso that the dean of the student's school will be kept informed of the progress made in addressing the complaint.
- At the conclusion of the complaint resolution process, the dean of the host school will report the outcome in writing to both the student and the dean of the student's school.

Wounded veteran receives free home in Fuquay-Varina.
On Sunday, former Army Staff Sgt. Oliver "Ollie" Hughes will celebrate his third "alive day."
A vehicle Hughes was riding in exploded in Ghazni, Afghanistan, on April 13, 2011. His right leg was crushed, and his left leg was injured so badly that doctors had to amputate it.
"I call it 'alive day' because it's a victory over a potential death," said Hughes, 38. "The day we celebrate the coin flipping on our side for once."
Hughes' comments drew applause from the crowd of more than 200 people who gathered Thursday morning in the South Lakes subdivision in Fuquay-Varina. They were there to see Hughes, his pregnant wife and their four children receive a new free home.
The house was donated by Operation: Coming Home, a joint project of the Home Builders Association of Raleigh-Wake County, the U.S. Veterans Corps and local nonprofits and businesses. This is the seventh house provided to wounded veterans by Operation: Coming Home.
The Hughes family will move into their 2,400-square-foot home on Saturday.
But first, there was a celebration. The 82nd Airborne All-American Chorus serenaded the family on Thursday. The All Veteran Parachute Team from Raeford dropped from the sky to give Hughes his new house key.
"How do I thank the cadre of people who have made this beautiful home, this awesome home?" Hughes asked. " 'Thanks' is just pale."
Ed Kristensen, area president for M/I Homes, which partnered on the project with Preston Development, said soldiers like Hughes put their lives on the line.
"Thank you for your service, your selflessness and your sacrifice – not only from you, but from your family," Kristensen said. "We hope that we've given the Hughes family a home to fulfill their hopes and dreams."
Hughes received a Purple Heart after he was injured by the improvised explosive device. He had been serving with a unit based at Fort Knox, Ky.
Hughes spent a month at Walter Reed in Maryland before moving to the Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas. After two years of physical therapy and multiple surgeries, the family moved to Smithfield while they waited for their new home in Fuquay-Varina.
Hughes, a former self-employed general contractor, joined the Army when he was 28, inspired by a saying from his late father.
"He used to drive me crazy by telling me there's the difference between knowing and doing," Hughes said. "I had a life, I had a job. ... There was a point where I looked at federal service and I made excuses."
Hughes said he stopped coming up with excuses, and he enlisted. And he has no regrets about it.
"I have to say after nine years we've done what we set out to do," he said of the military effort. "To date, none of my soldiers have died or fallen in battle. There have been a few injuries. Thankfully, I am the worst. I will accept that burden every day of the week."

Inquiry Question
Reading 2: All Eyes on Little Rock Central High
Built in 1927 at a cost of $1.5 million, Little Rock Senior High School, later to be renamed Little Rock Central High, was hailed as the most expensive, most beautiful, and largest high school in the nation. Its opening earned national publicity with nearly 20,000 people attending the dedication ceremony. The next two decades there were typical of those at most American high schools, but historic events in the 1950s changed education at Central High School and throughout the United States.
On May 17, 1954, the Supreme Court of the United States made a historic ruling in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka when it declared that segregation of public schools was unconstitutional. Thurgood Marshall, chief counsel for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and future Supreme Court Justice, had successfully argued the case before the Supreme Court. As part of his argument to end segregation, he referenced the case Prudence Crandall's lawyers made against Connecticut's Black Law. As a result of the ruling in Brown v. Board of Education, the "separate but equal" doctrine set forth in the Court's 1896 decision in Plessy v. Ferguson was no longer valid. In May 1955, after carefully considering how the ruling should be implemented, the Court stated that Federal District Courts would have jurisdiction over the desegregation plans of local school districts and that these plans should be formulated and put into effect "with all deliberate speed."
Arkansas was considered a moderate southern border state on the issue of race relations and civil rights. A few days after the Supreme Court's decision, the Little Rock School Board held a special meeting to discuss its impact on the city's schools. A unanimous resolution declared that the Board would comply and gradual desegregation would begin at the high school level in the 1957 school year. Central High was selected to be the first to desegregate with lower grades following over the next six years.
There was little open dissent among the city's white citizens in the three years of planning for the desegregation of Central High School. In January 1956, several African-American students attempted to enroll in Little Rock's schools. In response, lower courts judged the 1957 desegregation date to be in line with the Supreme Court's ruling and denied admittance to the students. The effort of African Americans to enroll in white schools flamed public interest in the desegregation plan. During the summer of 1957, a few months before Central High was to desegregate, opposition began to crystallize as the Capital Citizen's Council, the Little Rock version of a white citizen's council, and the Central High Mothers' League launched a media campaign against the School Board's plan and integration in general.
Amidst growing turmoil, the superintendent and staff interviewed African-American students who lived in the Central High district and expressed interest in participating in school integration. Out of the students selected, several later decided to stay at their all-black high school. The remaining students became known as the "Little Rock Nine." The co-editor of the Tiger, Little Rock Central High School's student newspaper, summarized the events surrounding the planned desegregation in the September 19, 1957, issue as follows:
Classes were scheduled to begin promptly at 8:45 a.m., September 3, at Little Rock Central High School when incidents began happening which caused the school to be the center of nationwide publicity. Photographs and articles have appeared in national magazines, and newspapers throughout the United States have told the story of how nine Negro students had been registered for admission to Central. To better understand the happenings of the past two weeks, here is a summary of the history of the school situation.The October 3, 1957, issue of the Tiger continued the story:
Nine Negro students attended Little Rock Central High School last week for the first time in history. They arrived at the school Wednesday, September 25, accompanied by crack paratroopers of the U.S. Army's 101st Airborne Division. An Army station wagon carried the students to the front entrance of the building while an Army helicopter circled overhead and 350 armed paratroopers stood at parade rest around the building.
Although some of the students, teachers, and administration attempted to maintain a sense of normalcy, for the nine students that integrated Central High School it was like going to war every day. One of the Little Rock Nine, Melba Pattillo Beals, describes their experience in her book Warriors Don't Cry:
My eight friends and I paid for the integration of Central High with our innocence. During those years when we desperately needed approval from our peers, we were victims of the most harsh rejection imaginable. The physical and psychological punishment we endured profoundly affected our lives. It transformed us into warriors who dared not cry even when we suffered intolerable pain.¹Integration affected both their lives at school and at home. At school these students were elbowed, poked, kicked, punched, and pushed. They faced verbal abuse from segregationists as well as death threats against themselves, their families, and members of the black community. At home, their families endured threatening phone calls; some of the parents lost their jobs; and the black community as a whole was harassed by bomb threats, gun shots, and bricks thrown through windows. While the students received some support from their community, they also were alienated by those who felt their actions jeopardized the safety of others.
Eight of the Little Rock Nine bravely finished the school year. One student was suspended and later expelled due to altercations with segregationists. In May 1958, with federal troops and city police on hand, Ernest Green, the only senior of the Little Rock Nine, graduated from Central High.
After that year, however, the story was far from over. Although ultimately unsuccessful, the Little Rock School Board made attempts to delay further desegregation. In August 1958, Governor Faubus called a special session of the state legislature to pass a law allowing him to close public schools to avoid integration. Faubus ordered Little Rock's high schools closed the following month, forcing approximately 3,700 high school students to seek alternative schooling during the 1958-59 school year. Finally, in June 1959, a federal court declared the state's school-closing law unconstitutional, and the schools reopened in the fall. Under the guidance of the new School Board, Little Rock Central High reopened in August 1959. Although a group of demonstrators marched to the school's opening, the local police broke up the mob and the school year began peacefully as several of the Little Rock Nine returned to Central High School.
Questions for Reading 2
1. Why do you think the Little Rock School Board decided to put off desegregation for three years after the 1954 ruling? Why do you think they did not attempt to desegregate all schools at once?
2. Why do you think some students tried to enroll before the scheduled integration date? What was the result?
3. Why do you think several African-American students selected to attend Central High ultimately decided not to switch schools? What might you have done in that situation?
4. Who published the Tiger? From the account presented by the Tiger articles what impression do you have about the events surrounding the integration of Central High? Does the article appear biased either for or against integration? Why or why not?
5. Why did Governor Faubus send units of the Arkansas National Guard to Central High? How do you think calling in the National Guard to keep the students out influenced public reaction to the integration of Central High?
6. Why did President Eisenhower call on the National Guard to protect the students? Why did he send the 101st Airborne Division? How might you have felt if you were part of the Arkansas National Guard called to first enforce segregation, and then enforce integration?
7. How have the two events discussed in Readings 1 & 2 influenced your understanding of the conflict that sometimes occurs between state and federal authorities?
8. How did the experience of students at Central High compare to those that attended Prudence Crandall's school? Reread the song lyrics found in Reading 1. Did they also apply to the Little Rock Nine? If so, how?
Reading 2 was compiled from "Little Rock High School" (Pulaski County, Arkansas) National Historic Landmark Nomination Form, Washington, D.C.: U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, 1970; Georgia Dortch, "Central High Thrown in National Spotlight as it Faces Integration," the Tiger, September 19, 1957; "Integration Goes Forward at CHS," the Tiger, October 3, 1957; "Golden Years," Little Rock Central High School's 50th anniversary yearbook, published in 1977; and Melba Pattillo Beals, Warriors Don't Cry: A Searing Memoir of the Battle to Integrate Little Rock's Central High (New York: Washington Square Press, 1994).

Apple Sides With Blu-Ray
Posted by Hector Martinez Categories: Home Entertainment,
Looks like Blu-Ray has another supporter in the HD format wars, and it's a biggie. Yesterday Apple announced that it will be the latest member in the Blu-Ray Disc Association, following a bimonthly meeting in South Korea hosted by electronics maker Samsung. Proponents of Blu Ray say that the format holds more data, while companies favoring the HD-DVD format say that they are cheaper to manufacture. The upcoming players for each format are both backward-compatible with existing DVD's. Since Sony and Apple are now behind Blu-Ray, some of you might think that the war is just about over now. Well, take a look at the upcoming HD-DVD releases and you might think twice.

Star Wars Lego Death Star II
Posted by Hector Martinez Categories: Misc. Tech,
Star Wars and Lego make such a good combination it's not even funny. Witness the new Death Star II, coming this September for $300. Sure it's a tad expensive, but just look at the complexity of this thing. Plus it comes with a stand, and measures 25 inches high and 19 inches wide. I would just hate to accidentally knock this thing over.

Nintendo At GDC: Free Nintendo DS WiFi Service
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Video Games,
One thing of interest mentioned at the Game Developers Conference regarding the Nintendo DS is that Nintendo is going to be launching a free WiFi online gaming service for the portable console. This will allow DS gamers to not only find and play against each other at Internet hotspots, but they will also be able to use their home WiFi network to jump online as well. Many have faulted Nintendo for their lack of vision in the online gaming department, as they have continued to say that they needed to wait until it was a viable investment. I now wonder if that meant that they wanted to wait until it was cheap enough to run an online gaming service that gamers would not have to pay for. With the Revolution also slated to be WiFi compliant, this is certainly an interesting turn of events.
In other DS news, you folks over in Europe can now pick one up at your local game store. The Nintendo DS made its European debut today at a price of £99 in the UK and €149 in other countries.

Nintendo At GDC: Revolution Backwards Compatible
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Corporate News, Video Games,
In news that makes me smile with glee, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata announced that the companies next-generation console - codenamed "Revolution" - will be backwards compatible with Nintendo Gamecube games. This move adds a lot of power to Nintendo as the next generation race begins to heat up. Microsoft has been trying to tie this feature into the Xbox 2/360 feature set, and has been having difficulty doing so. Having a system be backwards compatible immediately makes it more appealing, as it has hundreds of titles available to play right out of the gate. Iwata also confirmed that the Revolution will come with integrated WiFi capabilities. From the way he was talking at the Game Developers Conference, it seems that Nintendo is finally going to get on board with the online gaming world.
