Nancy waited at the airport for the arrival of our guests from Jordan, Galilee and the West Bank. The “LPS” on the sign she held welcomed the educators from the Latin Patriarchate Schools (LPS), the Roman Catholic schools of the Holy Land.
All teachers and administrators can become discouraged, weary or disheartened. In their lands, in which Christians are in the minority, and where the presence of violence or the threat of violence or the tendency toward violence or the call for violence can distract or even appeal to their students, these teachers from the Holy Land can have additional challenges, with the accompanying additional opportunities, of course.
While having lunch at “Melt” in Northside, my Celtic Woman’s “Amazing Grace” ringtone stole my attention from my good company and my Muffaletta sandwich. The number I did not recognize at all; the voice I did not recognize at first. It was Ranim, calling from Jordan. In her fourth year of medical school, eight years since her visit to us at St. Andrew, she lightened and brightened my day, as she does whenever we speak.
I told Ranim that it was a big day in Milford, with teachers from the Holy Land arriving this afternoon, two of whom are from her (former) school in Beit Jala. “Who is coming?” she asked. “He was my teacher! She is a very good teacher,” she said of Mr. Waseim and Ms. Iman.
The teachers have arrived safely in Cincinnati. Thanks, God! A gorgeous day has greeted them. They are settled in their rooms, have eaten their first meal in America, and are resting from a long trip.
Everyone has an opinion on the Palestinians asking the United Nations for recognition as a state.
At the end of the day, which will it be: (a) full membership as a state, (b) non-member state observer, or (c) non-state entity observer?
All will agree on one thing: it has people talking.
Get ready. Get set. Welcome!
Twelve teachers and administrators from the Holy Land are visiting Cincinnati from September 29 until October 9: six from the Palestinian Territories, two from Galilee and four from Jordan.
The first public event for the educators from the Holy Land will be a “Welcome Mass” on Sunday, October 2 at 11:00 a.m. at St. Andrew, Milford. At a luncheon following Mass, the teachers from the Latin Patriarchate School in Beit Jala will give presentations about their school and about the situation in which they and their students live.
This visit from the schools of the Latin Patriarchate (Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Jerusalem) is sponsored by H.O.P.E. (Holy Land Outreach to Palestinian Educators), and continues the interaction that began when teachers from various Catholic schools of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati traveled to Bethlehem during the summer of 2010.
Four of these Holy Land educators, as representatives of their school, will be entering into a permanent partnership with teachers and administrators from our St. Andrew-St. Elizabeth Ann Seton school. Teachers and children from our Catholic school in Milford will be joined in solidarity, learning and faith with teachers and children from the Catholic school in Beit Jala (Bethlehem). How exciting and mutually beneficial this relationship will be!
Another group of the teachers will be visiting Our Lady of Lourdes School to establish a relationship with them. Doubly blessed our Archdiocese will be!
At Masses today at St. Andrew we offered the same prayers of petition that we prayed in our church on September 16, 2001 – five days after 9/11 – [with one addition].
Priest: Even when the forces of darkness appear to prevail, we who believe in God know that evil and death do not have the final say. As we remember that no spiral of hatred and fear and violence will ever prevail, let us beg the Lord to calm every fear.
For the Church in our nation and throughout the world: that the gift of faith might bring peace.
For our President and all who lead us: that they be given divine wisdom, clear thinking, a spirit of prayer and strong faith.
For our country: that we might have a rebirth of trust in God, as we are being confronted by confusion and fear.
For our world: that the inhuman acts done on September 11 will awaken in the hearts of all the world’s peoples a firm resolve to reject the ways of violence, and to combat everything that sows hatred and division within the human family.
For police, firefighters, paramedics, medical and rescue workers; for those caring for survivors and those charged in some way with the public order; for those serving in all branches of the military service: may they be able to continue to be generous, resourceful and brave.
For all who died in the violence of September 11: those aboard the airlines, those in the buildings attacked and those who were working to save lives … [For those who have died in military service since then, especially in Afghanistan and Iraq] … For spouses who have been widowed, for children who have been orphaned, and for all who have been traumatized.
Priest: God of mercy, God of compassion, God of rescue, God of wisdom, God of comfort, God of peace, we know that you bring light out of darkness, and life out of death. Help us to remain generous, resourceful, and brave, and to trust with all our hearts that through the cross of Jesus there is victory over every evil. We pray through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Mychal Judge’s body was the first one released from Ground Zero. His death certificate has the number one on the top … and I meditated on that fact of the thousands of people that we are going to find out who perished in that terrible holocaust … why was Mychal Judge number one? And I think I know the reason. … Mychal’s goal and purpose in life at that time was to bring the firemen to the point of death, so they would be ready to meet their maker. There are between two and three hundred firemen buried there, the commissioner told us last night.
And so, this morning … we come to bury Mike Judge’s body but not his spirit. We come to bury his mind but not his dreams. We come to bury his voice but not his message. We come to bury his hands but not his good works. We come to bury his heart but not his love. Never his love.
Early in the afternoon of September 11, 2001, our St. Andrew staff picked up the parish telephone directory with prayerful purpose. They got on the telephone and spoke with one person on each page of that directory, asking them to leave a message at every other phone number that was on their page. The message was simple: There will be a prayer service in church tonight, if you need or want to be there. That evening the church was filled with people who wanted to be together and to pray together.
Dear Lord, receive all the victims into your loving arms. Comfort their families.
Dear Lord, ease the pain in so many hearts and the despair in so many spirits. Only you, Lord, can touch and heal these places.
I pray tonight for peace in the world and for the spirit of forgiveness in my heart.
That the hearts of our enemies may be softened and that I will resist the need for revenge. Come, Holy Spirit, and renew the face of the earth.
Please help us understand what is happening, so that we may not hate, but work together to resolve this horrible tragedy.
Dear Lord, please help us not to have terror and for war not to start. Let our country be safe and free. Help dad to be safe on his trip.
Many of us remember where we were – and what we felt and what we did – on the morning of September 11, 2001. What follows is my journal entry from that Tuesday morning, ten year ago, at St. Andrew.
I left the parish office, crossed the street and went into each classroom of our parish school, and told the children what was being shown on television. We did what was natural and expected: we prayed. We prayed for those who had died and those who were dying. We prayed for those who were rescuing and ministering. We told God that we were afraid. We asked God to keep us safe from harm and from the hatred of other people. We asked God to keep us from hating and from wanting to harm others in return. Toward the end of our prayer we even brought ourselves to pray for those who hated us so much to do this terrible thing.
I felt some curious assurance, when I looked out the school window and saw a Milford police car in the parking lot.

On the hottest weekend of the year, when it seemed all the bikes in England were out in the road, mine was sat in the garage getting dusty. Not that I'm complaining as I had a great weekend. I got back mid afternoon today and after spending an hour or two catching up with things, I decided I had better get on with these track fairings. The first job was to repair the tabs on the belly pan, two of which were broken. I cleaned up the tabs and looked at ways to secure and reinforce them. I picked up some proper fairing clips at the end of last week for this very task, but when attached to the taps, they simply left no room to really attach them back on. It was then that I tried putting one on the last remaining tab and that, well frankly disintegrated on me. That was it, stuff it! I certainly wasnt going to fight a loosing battle with soft second rate plastic. The problem was, I still wanted to use the main panels, including the nose and tail, so I decided to give the normal (non carbon) belly pan a whirl instead and I'm very pleased. So much easier if I'm honest and it looks pretty good too. I just have to hope they go onto the bike okay.
Whilst rummaging around I found my original integrated tail light. Those of you who have read my blog over the years, might remember that I had to change it over as one of the four clusters of indicator LEDS stopped working, which isn't good enough for road trim, but for track duties and that one journey each way at each end of the day, it will be fine. The original idea was to put some stick on indicators inside the tail unit, but with this solution I don't have to and have saved myself a little bit of wiring. The problem with mounting the light is still there and following the issue with the belly pan, I wasn't really in the mood to start building up a tab and than having to find a solution regarding the thread. So I drilled a hole, just a small one to start with and as I thought, it comes out right under the seat cowl. The plan now is to either bolt the light in using the original gromets, but with a much longer nut and bolt which will then sit recessed under the seat, or by using cable ties. Now I know what you're thinking; this is serious bodge territory and you absolutely right, but lets see what happens.
Going back a few days for a second, on my way up to Birmingham on Friday, I had a more than enough time for the journey, so instead of just sitting on the motorway, I decided to drive my biking route which is much more engaging. Along the way I knew that I was due to pass a Triumph dealer www.hughendenm40.co.uk which is on the A40 just before Oxford services. So, I got out and had a look around, which is when I saw this.
Its a 14,000 mile 2002 CBR900RR FireBlade, the last one designed by Tadao Baba, the father of the FireBlade. The price is okay and I've sent out a few emails to see if I can get a test ride later this week. If I like it, this would be perfect for me, but the only problem is I still haven't sold the Monster.

Oscar nominee Jude Law is in negotiations to play the male lead opposite Oscar winner Brie Larson in Marvel’s Captain Marvel according to Variety. Ben Mendelsohn is also rumored to be on deck to play the villain with his Mississippi Grind directors Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck.
Marvel had no comment on Variety’s story.
Law is a well-known commodity in Hollywood, having been a part of such ’90s classics as The Talented Mr. Ripley and Gattaca. In later years, Law found a franchise in the Robert Downey, Jr. Sherlock Holmes films. We will next see him handle a wand in the Fantastic Beasts series as Albus Dumbledore.
Captain Marvel will tell the story of Carol Danvers, an Air Force pilot whose DNA is fused with that of an alien during an accident imbuing her with the superpowers of strength, energy projection, and flight. Back in the summer, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige announced that Captain Marvel would take place in the ’90s with a young Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) looking to defend Earth from being a pawn on a Kree-Skrull war.
In the comics, Carol gets her powers not just from an accident, but from an accident involving the previous Captain Marvel aka the Kree warrior Mar-Vell. Law’s addition is reportedly for an unknown role, but is reportedly to be a mentor figure for Larson’s character.

The essays in this timely volume are built around the theme that the politics of fear, or catastrophism, are ultimately unproductive and even reactionary. In her introductory essay to Catastrophism, Sasha Lilley cautions that a left alternative to capitalism — one that can respond adequately to a series of contemporary crises, including environmental and economic ones — cannot give in to fear and the 'logic of catastrophe.' She warns, "the politics of fear ... play to the strengths of the right, not the left" (p. 3). Each chapter confronts catastrophism in different and complementary ways. Eddie Yuen describes the failure of catastrophism for the environmental movement. Lilley offers a history of the dangers of catastrophism in leftist politics, while James Davis chronicles the history of right wing fear-mongering and apocalypticism. The concluding essay by David McNally connects the cultural phenomenon of zombies with the catastrophes of everyday life in capitalism.
Yuen's essay challenges the environmental movement to adopt different and more productive narratives about climate change and possibilities for its reversal. While not denying that a catastrophe is indeed impending, Yuen points to the paradox that increased individual knowledge about climate change does not result in increased political engagement. The problem, he holds, is that mainstream accounts of global warming "follow compelling evidence for ecological collapse with woefully inadequate injunctions to green consumption or lobbying of political representatives" (p.19). Yuen's alternative begins with jettisoning the Malthusian logic that penetrates so much of contemporary ecological thinking. He rejects the idea that ecological and social crises are the result of scarcity as an ideological construction that ultimately reinforces the status quo. By transcending the idea that it is a unified 'us' that is responsible for climate change, Yuen suggests that the class and geographical dynamics of ecological devastation and its burdens may come to light. Yuen's contribution provides a pragmatic assessment of the failures of contemporary ecological movements, while also maintaining optimism that an eco-socialist politics can provide an alternative to capitalist alienation and environmental destruction. Refreshingly, Yuen does not rely on productivist mystifications, arguing instead that a better life can be had with less consumption.
Shifting focus, Lilley's chapter offers a critique of what she terms the "left catastrophist dyad" (p. 44). While each side of this dyad represents deep political despair and an insistence that a better future can be born only out of complete collapse, they differ insofar as one is deterministic, the other voluntaristic. The former, writes Lilley, is premised on the notion that capitalism will "inevitably collapse under its own weight..." (p. 46). Not only is this conception untrue to Marx's analysis of capitalism it also results in both adventurism and quietism at the expense of an emphasis on class struggle. The voluntaristic pole of the dyad, Lilley argues, is characterized by the idea that "the worse things get, the better they will be for revolutionary prospects" (p. 54). This counterfactual notion has been mobilized by leftists throughout the 20th century — from the Weathermen, to primitivists such as Derrick Jensen, to the eccentric Trotskyist Juan Posadas — without political success. As an alternative, Lilley suggests taking seriously Theodor Adorno, who warned against "seeing the world in such grim terms that only an exterior force could change it" (p. 75-6).
In his contribution, James Davis argues that the notion society is headed for some sort of collapse — be it environmental, economic, social or spiritual — characterizes right wing catastrophism. This essay centres on a distinction between those catastrophists who see collapse as the disease of progressive and democratic advancements such as feminism and multiculturalism (Leo Strauss, for example) and those who take the argument a step further and see total collapse as the necessary cure (the Norwegian terrorist Anders Breivik). Taking up Lilley’s warning about the politics of fear, Davis examines the ways that the state manipulates fear to increase its power. He concludes with the warning that in a conjuncture saturated by catastrophic discourses, the right can use this hysteria to its benefit while for the left catastrophism is far less productive.
McNally’s essay takes the analysis in a more creative direction, exploring the cultural obsession with zombies. According to McNally, this fixation is the reflection of a class politics that debases workers’ bodies. In the 21st century, two representations of the zombie come together in a dialectical encounter: “In... the maniacally insatiable flesh-eater, we find the capitalist zombie, driven to relentlessly consume human beings. [I]n the image of the zombie labourer we encounter the reality of the global collective worker reduced to a beast of burden who keeps the machinery of accumulation ticking” (p. 123). This chapter is much less explicitly about catastrophism, and appears to wander much further from the main theme of the book than do the others. However, McNally is not so much concerned with doomsday scenarios as he is with the “catastrophic texture of everyday life” in capitalist society (p. 126). The cultural preoccupation with zombies reveals this ‘catastrophic texture.’ In this way, McNally’s optimistic conclusion provides a fitting culmination of the book: “We need... to uncover the social basis of all that is truly horrifying and catastrophic about our world, as part of a critical theory and practice designed to change it” (p. 127).
The essays in this book each present a sophisticated and nuanced analysis of the politics and discourses of catastrophe. While the message is that the left must not succumb to catastrophic panic and the politics of fear, the authors do not deny that we do indeed live in a catastrophic age. It is not the time, however, for the left to indulge in apocalypticism, to resign itself to the notion that a better society will arise only from the ashes of the current barbarism. This insistence reflects the sober optimism offered by this collection of essays. Accessibly written and rich in analysis, this volume has much to offer any student of contemporary politics.
Catastrophism is a collection of essays addressing the use of dooms day predictions in the environmental movement, the left, the right as well as in popular culture. The four chapters are authored by Sasha Lilley, David McNally, Eddie Yuen and James Davis following conversations within the Berkeley-based Retort collective guided by Iain Boal (who led an excellent biking oral history tour in Dublin as part of the Prosperity Project in May). This book is meant as ‘a political intervention, designed to spur debate among radicals.’ (4) I have taken this as an invitation for discussion.
Seeking a clearer understanding of what the writers meant by catastrophism, I listened to a podcast where Lilley explains that they are discussing an ideology around collapse and rebirth which assumes a new society will be born out of the ashes of the old. This kind of thinking, they argue, results in people waiting for the collapse rather than organising. They further claim that catastrophism is based on fear which works very differently for the right where it is mobilising, than it does for the left where it is paralysing.
Eddy Yuen begins by voicing a critique of the environmental movement. The central argument he puts forward is that the environmental movement is failing to mobilise because of its catastrophic discourse and an ‘apocalyptic narrative’ that presumes this will lead to political action. He is concerned that ‘dooms day scenarios’ don’t have a politicization effect and suggests environmentalists should find better ‘narrative strategies’.
Catastrophism, here, refers to the warning of environmental crisis. Dissemination of information, according to Yuen, does not lead to action. He claims the environmental movement has caused fear induced-apathy in the population. Yuen pins this to a deeply held conviction about politicization apparently held by environmentalists – if people have the facts they will act. While this may be the case for some, Yuen does not address the importance of understanding the dynamics of climate change and their consequences as a vital precursor to action. In the same way that knowledge of starving children in your city does not lead most people to take action, so knowledge about climate change does not necessarily lead to action. This phenomenon is not unique to the environmental movement.
Yuen makes the assumption that the environmental movement cannot mobilise because it uses catastrophic language. This line of argument ignores the complexity of psychological and sociological factors contributing to inaction. Kari Marie Norgaard has done some excellent work on social movement non-participation and speaks about strategies people develop to avoid having to deal with difficult emotions. This indicates that, like with other bad news we get, there is a need to support people while dealing with these difficult emotions.
Yuen rightly criticises false solutions like green consumption proposed by Al Gore. It seems like Yuen sees Al Gore as a spokesperson for environmentalists. This is not the case and should have been clarified. Al Gore is probably the most visible advocate of ecological modernisation in the US. Ecological modernisation theory (EMT) argues that the institutions of modernity, including multinational corporations and governments, will increasingly give more importance to ecological concerns. It is the neo-liberal belief that the crisis can be solved through far-reaching reforms, without the need for radical social change. Leftists concerned with climate change however, argue that social change and an alternative to capitalism are needed.
He further argues that the catastrophism of ‘many left-leaning greens’ is ‘Malthusian at its core’, points out a ‘shocking deficiency in the movements understanding of history, capitalism and global inequality’ and a simplistic analysis which places the blame on ‘the human race’. Surprisingly, he does not mentioned groups and networks on the left dedicated to building a climate justice movement which addresses the above concerns. This movement, like Yuen, rejects false solutions. It argues that climate change is not a problem of overpopulation but overconsumption/overproduction by and for the global north and elites in the global south. Climate justice activists speak about capitalism and point out the ‘contradictions between infinite accumulation of capital, and life on a finite planet’. It would have been more stimulating if he had discussed shortcomings of the environmental left, rather than criticising neo-liberal environmentalism.
Communicating climate change is difficult. Most people (including many on the left) do not want to hear about the topic because it makes them feel uncomfortable and there are no easy solutions. Climate denial, sponsored largely by the fossil fuel industry, is distorting reality. They want us to believe that climate change is not man made or that it is nothing to worry about. My concern with this chapter is that it could be used by some to further silence environmental activists.
In the second chapter, author and Against the Grain (which is well worth checking out) radio host Sasha Lilley distinguishes between two types of catastrophism on the left: determinist and voluntarist catastrophism. The former is a belief that capitalism will collapse under its own weight while the latter refers to the idea that worsening conditions will lead to a revolution. Catastrophism leads to the paralysis of the many and the vanguardism of the few and results from a politics of despair.
Lilley writes that the belief that capitalism “will come crashing down without protracted mass struggle is wishful thinking.’ (44) Are there really people on the left who think the sudden and uncontrolled collapse of capitalism would be a positive event? Surely the suffering would be enormous in such an event. She then looks at thinkers including Rosa Luxemburg and Immanuel Wallerstein whose analyses predicted that capitalism will collapse. Lilley disagrees. In her view capitalism will not come to an end due to internal contradictions. (136) The consequences of assuming collapse, it is further argued, leads to “adventurism (the ill-conceived actions of the few) or political quietism (the inaction that flows from awaiting the inexorable laws of history to put an end to capitalism)”. (52) Lilley asserts that we cannot rely on external forces to do the work of ending capitalism for us and that political organising is crucial. Unfortunately she has not presented convincing evidence that deterministic catastrophism is a phenomenon that requires discussion. The sources she quotes do not take the position that we can sit back and wait. To the contrary they argue for the importance of organising a new society before capitalism collapses.
The second type of catastrophism on the left, voluntarism, is more common, according to Lilley. What ties determinism and voluntarism together is “a deep-seated pessimism about mass collective action and radical social transformation.” (45) Immiseration and state repression then are tools for politicisation leading to an assumption that “radicals should do what they can to make things worse.” (54) It is the idea that state repression can lead to the growth of movements. That the KPD (German Communist Party), one of her examples, made very serious mistakes has been discussed since 1945. Attempting to demonstrate that the KPD believed state repression would bring them to power in three paragraphs, while taking quotes out of their historical context, does not do the situation any justice.
Speaking about state repression and revolution, the next section examines war, which ‘has long been seen on the left as the midwife of revolt, often patterned in the trinity of crisis-war-revolution’. That revolts can follow war is a historical fact. To argue, however, that the left sees war as ‘midwife’ is a serious misrepresentation, at least of the European left which associates nothing positive with war.
The sub-chapter ‘Heightening Contradictions’ discusses militant groups like the Weathermen and the Red Army Faction arguing that insurrectionism is a misguided tactic, while the last part discusses anti-civilization.
James Davis, Irish writer and film maker, looks at catastrophism on the right and introduces the disease-cure binary of catastrophe. The catastrophe for the right is the threat to privilege and political power. The left is the catastrophe for the right, the left is the disease. Civil rights, feminism and social democracy are trends the right wishes to reverse. One approach to this is cure catastrophism, a subset to disease catastrophism. Acts which could contribute to a reversal in power won by social movements might be sparked by right wing terror and could then take the form of a ‘race war, insurrection, Armageddon, civil war, or in its purest form biblical apocalypse, and rapture.’ (78) Actors explored in this chapter include the media used as a tool for propaganda, individual acts of terror on the right, small groups on the radical right, conspiracy theorists and the religious right. Catastrophism, Davis argues, “has a long history on the right and both the state and the organised far right understand it and wield it skilfully to achieve political and propaganda goals.” (106) It was unclear how this chapter relates to the previous two.
The book’s key dilemma is that there is no clear definition of catastrophism as a concept. In a way this problem is reflected by a paragraph in the introduction where Lilley explains that “an overarching logic might be harder to place, since these movements and ideas are driven by different impulses, from above and from below (and in the case of the greens, both). In that sense, it is hard to talk about a catch-all catastrophism, without specifying whether it is of the left, right, green – or liberal – variety.” The definition offered by Lilley in the introduction as well as the scene set by the title – The Apocalyptic Politics of Collapse and Rebirth is misleading. It suggest the authors are speaking about an ideology that assumes a collapse, be it economic, ecological or social, and is followed by a new and better society, which will be born out of the ashes of the old. Apart from the the religious right, which is mentioned in the third chapter, there is no evidence of collapse being viewed as a positive event.

Greencastle, Ind. - DePauw trailed 24th-ranked Wittenberg by two points with less than 30 seconds left in overtime, but Nick Felke hit a 3-pointer with 22 seconds left and added two free throws with eight seconds remaining to help DePauw to a 77-75 North Coast Athletic Conference win over the visiting Tigers. DePauw moved to 12-6 overall and 6-5 in the NCAC, while Wittenberg dropped to 13-5 overall and 7-4 in the conference.
Wittenberg led by as many as nine in the opening half at 30-21 with 3:48 left, but DePauw closed the half on a 9-4 run to trim the halftime deficit to 34-30.
The guests extended the lead to seven early in the second half after Mitchell Balser nailed a trey, but Matthew Godfrey hit two 3-pointers and Nolan Ginther added a jumper after an offensive rebound to even the score at 40-40.
Wittenberg led 57-54 after Jake Bertemes nailed a three with 4:22 left, but Cole Jenkins countered 25 seconds later to even the count at 57-57. Bertemes put the guests back in front with a bucket before Felke knocked in a three to give DePauw a 60-59 advantage with 2:41 left.
Balser's three on the next possession gave Wittenberg a 62-60 lead, but Andrew Kus matched that with 1:59 remaining to give the hosts a 63-62 lead. Following a Wittenberg turnover, Kus nailed another one from beyond the arc to give DePauw a 66-62 edge with 1:22 left in regulation.
Bertemes scored on a layup and, after DePauw missed a 3-point try, Wittenberg's James Johnson converted a 3-point play starting with a put back bucket to give the guests a 67-66 lead with 16 seconds remaining.
Ginther drew a foul in the post with 3.4 seconds left and made the second of his two free throws to even the score at 67-67. Following a timeout, Wittenberg fired a pass the length of the court, but Ginther knocked it away and the teams went to overtime.
The Tigers trailed 74-72 in the extra session before Felke's 3-pointer which came after a Wittenberg turnover. Wittenberg missed a 3-pointer on the other end and Felke drained both charity tosses. After a timeout, DePauw fouled on the inbounds pass. Balser hit the first free throw and the second went out-of-bounds after touching a DePauw player. The visiting Tigers got the ball into the hands of Balser, but his baseline drive was off the mark as time expired.
Ginther led four DePauw double-figure scorers with 18 points and added a career-high 11 rebounds for his first collegiate double-double. Kus and Jenkins each chipped in 13 points and Felke finished with 12 along with a game-high six assists.
Johnson and Connor Seipel each scored 18 with Seipel snagging 15 rebounds. Bertemes added 14 points and four assists with Balser totaling 10 points.
DePauw shot 39.1 percent from the field to Wittenberg's 49.0 percent, but the hosts hit 11 of 28 3-points to Wittenberg's 6 of 14. Wittenberg held a 38-31 rebounding advantage but DePauw grabbed 12 on the offensive glass for a 15-8 advantage in second-chance points. DePauw turned the ball over just 10 times to Wittenberg's 21.
DePauw returns to NCAC action on Saturday with a 3 p.m. game at Oberlin.

All of that will be supplied to those who are attending.
Cash is fine and checks are to be made out to Gary Schmelz. After the outing we will meet at the Country Roads Café for a wonderful lunch of your choice….. and there will be “contests and prizes”.
Again, an information packet will be given to the attendees. For reservations contact Richard Sedlak at sedlaki1@comcast.net / 954-296-5633 and there will be a sign-up sheet at the January meeting. I might remind everyone that there are only 7 spots left.
Our next outing will be to the Sanibel Shell Show on Saturday, March 4th and for this the club will rent a van so everyone can arrive at once. There is room for a maximum of 12, but if there is enough interest we will rent a second van. The cost for the trip is $30 per person with the only other expense being the $5 “donation” for the show plus whatever you want for lunch.
We will leave at 7:30 AM from the Coral Ridge Mall parking lot, the side facing US 1, at the base of the AMC Theatre sign. The location is very secure and the Target security carts patrol until after 10 PM. We should return by about 9 PM.
Upon arrival to Sanibel we will go directly to the show, followed by lunch at the popular Island Cow located right next door. We can then go back to the show for a while and then go to one of the local beaches for some shelling and if there is time stop at one of the shell shops. On the way home (we leave Sanibel about 6 PM) we will have a special “refreshment” stop.
The only thing I have to mention is that if you commit to the trip you must pay up front, and unless you are in the hospital “gasping for breath” there are no refunds. This trip has to pay for itself. But come along….you won’t regret it.

Describes how destination pixel is replaced with a combination of itself and source pixel. Blend_Mode may use source, destination, or both. Blend_Mode may operate on each Color component independently, or may allow all source pixel components to contribute to one destination pixel component.
Blend_Mode does not use adjacent pixels to determine the outcome.
Blend_Mode uses source and read destination Alpha to determine written destination Alpha; both source and destination Alpha may also affect written destination Color components.
Regardless of how Alpha is encoded in source and destination pixel, nearly all Color_Types treat it as ranging from zero to one. And, nearly all Blend_Mode algorithms limit the output so that all results are also zero to one.
Two exceptions are SkBlendMode::kPlus and kRGBA_F16_SkColorType.
SkBlendMode::kPlus permits computing Alpha and Color component values larger than one. For Color_Types other than kRGBA_F16_SkColorType, resulting Alpha and component values are clamped to one.
kRGBA_F16_SkColorType permits values outside the zero to one range. It is up to the client to ensure that the result is within the range of zero to one, and therefore well-defined.
Compositing Digital Images describes Porter_Duff modes SkBlendMode::kClear through SkBlendMode::kXor.
Drawing a bitmap with transparency using Porter_Duff compositing is free to clear the destination.
Draw geometry with transparency using Porter_Duff compositing does not combine transparent source pixels, leaving the destination outside the geometry untouched.
Modes SkBlendMode::kPlus and SkBlendMode::kScreen use simple arithmetic to lighten or darken the destination. Modes SkBlendMode::kOverlay through SkBlendMode::kMultiply use more complicated algorithms to lighten or darken; sometimes one mode does both, as described by Blend Modes .
SkBlendMode::kModulate is a mashup of SkBlendMode::kSrcATop and SkBlendMode::kMultiply. It multiplies all components, including Alpha; unlike SkBlendMode::kMultiply, if either source or destination is transparent, result is transparent. SkBlendMode::kModulate uses Premultiplied values to compute the product; SkBlendMode::kMultiply uses Unpremultiplied values to compute the product.
Modes SkBlendMode::kHue, SkBlendMode::kSaturation, SkBlendMode::kColor, and SkBlendMode::kLuminosity convert source and destination pixels using all components color information, using non-separable blend modes .

"Markets as sites of diversity and cultural interaction: Framing a research agenda"
Generations of social scientists have been interested in the socio-cultural dynamics of urban markets, places where people from different ethnic origins and class positions converge to engage in commerce. Opinions vary on the consequences of these fleeting encounters. Furnivall, arguably the most important proponent of pluralism theory, believed that interaction in markets has little impact on relations between cultural groups; underlying animosities will not be improved by the market, for example. But the ‘contact hypothesis’ that is the foundation of so much contemporary theory in the social sciences (e.g., the massive literature on social capital) would suggest otherwise, that the market, as a site of cultural mingling and the production of social networks, generates effects beyond the simple exchange of products. If this is true, the market could be seen as playing an integrative role in society.
The Markets as sites of diversity and cultural interaction: Framing a research agenda workshop is designed to think about the socio-cultural characteristics and consequences of markets in highly diverse societies. We hope to build a framework for collaborative research on urban markets, which should take place in a number of countries and in different kinds of markets.

The world was shocked when news broke in June of this year that Olympic ski champion Bode Miller and his wife had lost their 19-month-old daughter in a drowning accident. But the truth is, drowning is the leading cause of injury-related death in children ages 1 to 4 and the second-leading cause in kids ages 1 to 15. About 1,000 American children die every year from unintentional drowning. Even more shocking is the fact that minority children drown at three to four times that rate because cultural, racial, and economic barriers limit opportunities for them to learn how to swim.
When Karen Cohn lost her son to drowning, she started ZAC Foundation to prevent such accidents.
Ten years ago, Karen Cohn lost her six-year-old son Zachary Archer Cohn when he drowned in a backyard pool after his arm became trapped by the powerful sucking action of the drain. It didn’t take long for Zachary’s parents to create The ZAC Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to helping other families avoid the tragedy of an unintentional drowning – especially in minority communities.
After her son passed away, Cohn realized that many people don’t know what drain entrapment is. As a mother, she knew that she was supposed to protect her children around water by teaching them to swim and providing close supervision. But as she researched drain entrapment after Zachary’s death, she realized what an epidemic unintentional drowning is, and she became committed to educating other families about water safety and drowning prevention.
Cohn encouraging kids to swim with ZAC Foundation.
The work of the ZAC Foundation impacts thousands. For six years, the organization has partnered with the Boys & Girls Clubs of America and the Red Cross to teach water safety. Since 2011, more than 15,000 children have participated in ZAC Camps nationwide. Instruction includes both fundamental swim lessons and a classroom-based water safety curriculum that teaches kids how to avoid drowning risks in pools and natural bodies of water. In addition, the Camps teach lifesaving skills such as basic CPR and how to recognize the signs of drowning. In an effort to create positive relationships between first responders and children in at-risk communities, local first responders also participate in the signature ZAC Camp.
“There are so many communities that are in desperate need of this type of safety education,” says Cohn. “The ZAC Foundation is in memory of and inspired by Zach. He was overflowing with life, curiosity, and wit. Each day I wake up excited about what I’m doing. It doesn’t feel like work to me. It’s fulfilling to know that I am serving others out of my family’s tragedy; healing myself by educating others."

A hair transplant is a surgical procedure in which hair is moved from the back and/or sides of the scalp, where it is permanent (donor area), to areas that are thinning or bald on the front, top, or crown of the scalp (recipient area). Once transplanted, the hair will continue to grow for a person’s lifetime.
WHAT IS is FOLLICULAR UNIT TRANSPLANTATION (FUT)?
Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) is a hair restoration procedure in which naturally-occurring groups of one to four hairs, called follicular units, are transplanted from the donor area to the recipient area. In FUT, after the patient’s scalp is numbed, the doctor removes a thin strip of tissue from the back and/or sides of the scalp. The donor strip is then separated into hundreds to thousands of individual follicular unit. As the follicular unit grafts are being prepared, the doctor makes tiny slits in the scalp (recipient sites), into which the grafts are placed.
WILL MY HAIR TRANSPLANT RESULT LOOK COMPLETELY NATURAL ?
Hair transplantation, when done right, can be so natural that even your hair stylist will not know that you’ve had it done. But the skill and techniques of hair transplant surgeons does vary widely, as do their results. It’s important to choose the right procedure and clinic to assure that you will get completely natural results.
The surgery is performed under local anesthesia. The surgery gives a little pain and discomfort; but it depends on the procedure and it varies from the person to person. If some patients feel pain and soreness; so different pain killers and medication are prescribed to them. After the surgery, though the pain is not severe. If the transplanted is performed by qualified and experienced then the pain is minimized.
There is some redness and crusting after the procedure. Some patients experience swelling during the first week after surgery. Hair transplants are usually undetectable after 10 days. Follicular unit grafts are permanent in the scalp after 10 days.
There is no difference between the FUE and FUT techniques when the hair follicle begins to grow. Normally it takes between three to five months following surgery before the transplanted hair follicles begin to grow new hair. Results will vary from one to another and it may take up to twelve months for the hair follicle to grow.
DO HAIR TRANSPLANT PROCEDURES GIVE SCARS?
Fibrosis is the process which heals the skin after any cut or injury. Fibrosis is basically scarring. The hair transplant scarring is quiet depend on the handling of the surgeon; the more experienced the hair transplant surgeon is the more there are least chances of scarring. While with the modernization and technology; hair transplant techniques also get revoked. If the modern hair transplant technique FUE is used to transplant hair, then it is 100% guaranteed that there will be no visible scars.
There are no exact age limits for hair transplants; however, age is a very important determinant of estimating the progress of male pattern hair loss. Therefore, age, must change the surgical plan and the younger the age, the more conservative the plan must be. Generally, it would be wrong to transplant a male patient below the age of 20, who has many years of hair loss ahead and the estimation of the progress is very difficult.
After the surgery, infection can be occurring; which is very rare. If the infection does occur; it happened because the patients failed to follow the post-operative instruction that a surgeon has asked him to do so. Even if the infection occurs; it is treatable by giving some antibiotics.

This vest is 19,95 euros at the H & M website. I saw this vest online but it looked really huge. When I saw someone wearing it on a blog, I was so jealous. I wanted to wear it as well and for only 19,95 euros, I couldn't resist.
I saw this vest on the same blogger as well and it looked awesome on her. I wasn't that sure if it would be my style. I was afraid it would age me too much. But hey, for only 1 euros you can send it back if you don't like it. And it might look great on me? Thus, I ordered it.
I was looking at the sale at the H & M webshop for the last few weeks, for several items. One of them was this amazing cowboy jacket. I love the fringes at the front and at the back. It was almost always sold out in the size I wanted and I was getting desperate and thinking about ordering a smaller size. Luckily, my mom is so sweet to check the website as well while I'm at my internship (I can't check the website there all the time, now can I?). She was able to order this one at last! I'm really looking forward to this package, because I'm curious about the three items. These are things I usually wouldn't wear but I'm expanding! This jacket was only 20 euros.
The first one is pretty.
Thank you! The package got delivered on Saturday, it will be online quite soon!

German conglomerate Bayer won EU antitrust approval on Wednesday for its $62.5 billion buy of US peer Monsanto, the latest in a trio of mega mergers that will reshape the agrochemicals industry.
Environmental and farming groups have opposed all three deals, worried about their power and their advantage in digital farming data, which can tell farmers how and when to till, sow, spray, fertilise and pick crops based on algorithms.
Ms Vestager said the Commission, which received more than a million petitions concerning the deal, had been thorough by examining more than 2,000 different product markets and 2.7 million internal documents to produce a 1,285-page ruling.
The US Justice Department, which is also reviewing the merger, said in a statement on its website that it would press on with its review and that the market in the two regions was quite different.
"While genetically modified seeds are largely prohibited in Europe, they are widely used throughout the United States," the department noted. "The Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice continues to examine the effects of the proposed transaction on American farmers and consumers."
Bayer has already reached a deal to sell certain seed and herbicide assets for €5.9 billion ($7.2bn) to BASF and to give it a licence to its global digital farming data. It will also divest its vegetable seeds business to BASF.
Online campaigns group Avaaz criticised the EU approval.
"This is a marriage made in hell. The Commission ignored a million people who called on them to block this deal, and caved in to lobbying to create a mega-corporation which will dominate our food supply," Avaaz legal director Nick Flynn said.
US-incorporated Avaaz, funded by its members, is active in climate change, poverty, conflict and corruption issues.
"The agriculture industry is already far too concentrated, giving a handful of massive firms a stranglehold on food production. Merging two of the biggest players only makes a bad situation worse," Greens spokesman Bart Staes said.

I have four different whole numbers written on a piece of paper.
The largest number is four bigger than the smallest.
The middle two numbers are even.
If I add all four numbers together, I get 12.
You might think there are lots of possibilities to check, but there are some tricks to make the puzzle easier.
First, a quick estimate of how big the numbers are. There are four numbers and they add up to 12. Since 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12, the four numbers you’re looking for should average about 3.
The difference between the smallest and largest numbers is four, so the biggest number can be written as: smallest + 4.
There are only three possible numbers between the smallest and largest numbers: smallest + 1, smallest + 2, and smallest + 3.
Since the two middle numbers are even, they must be two apart. So the two middle numbers must be smallest + 1 and smallest + 3.
Time to try some numbers! If you make the smallest number 1, then you get 1, 1 + 1, 1 + 3 and 1 + 4. Calculating them out, you get 1, 2, 4, and 5. They add up to 12, so that’s the correct answer!
Then you can get the other numbers by just adding 1, 3, and 4 to that.
