Carp barrens under new management
July 3, 2018 July 9, 2018 wadmin 0 Comments
CARP – The Carp Hills rock barrens is an increasingly popular recreation destination, but also an important and sensitive environmental area.
On June 11, City of Ottawa staff, the Friends of the Carp Hills and members of the public and various user groups met to discuss the best way to keep the 3,000-some heactare plot accessible to the public but safe for the diverse, and in some cases, at risk plant and wildlife life that call the area home.
The land is owned by the City of Ottawa and stewarded by the Friends of the Carp Hill.
The land is an untouched, wooded and glacier rock-covered area on both sides of Thomas A Dolan Parkway located between Stonecrest and Carp roads.
Public use of the Carp Barrens has increased "substantially" over the last several years with day hikers, mountain bikers and hunters all making use of the beautiful area with some snowmobile traffic in the winter. Users have created and marked new trails without city authorization. Sensitive vegetation and wildlife in the area have experience damage and disturbance. Parking has created a safety hazard.
Five years ago, area community members created the Friends of the Carp Hills due to "concern about the potential of losing the Carp Hills to development and losing access to the beautiful area," Friends chair Janet Mason told West Carleton Online.
They formed a partnership with the municipal landowner to manage the land on the city's behalf.
The Friends created the Crazy Horse Trail on 200 acres owned by the city and "have an agreement giving us permission to maintain the land and work with the city on further trail development," Mason said.
"We wanted to get ahead of the curve. The Carp barrens has unusual ecology. It's also stunningly beautiful, easily disturbed and quite fragile. Human use has really increased a lot. No one group is at fault at all. It's being used a lot, but it's not being managed."
So, the June 11 public meeting in Carp was the first step in the process of creating a management plan.
"It was a meeting to get public feedback for the city to use as review policy for management," Mason said.
Mason said the public meeting was a great success with a lot of positive input from the user groups with all in attendance agreeing the land needed a proper management plan.
"It was a very good meeting," Mason said. "People felt they were heard and there was a reasonably good cross section of users."
Mason said the Huntley Community Centre Mess Hall was full and after some initial words, attendees broke in to smaller groups to workshop ideas. The Friends also distributed surveys to attendees at the meeting and to the greater community.
Following the meeting Mason said "it looks to us there may be some near terms we can implement."
In the long term, the plan is to "work with field naturalists to do an ecological assessment of the site. That will help us better plot out trails. It's the city's decision to add more trails or not though. Our role is to add input."
City of Ottawa Senior Environmental Planner and ecologist Dr. Nick Stow also attended the June 11 meeting.
"The land is not over-used at the moment, but it certainly is very sensitive," he told West Carleton Online on June 26. "We don't know yet, what level of use it can support."
Dr. Stow said the combination of glacier shield rock and thin soil makes for very poor agricultural land and the Carp barrens has "survived in an almost pristine natural state."
He says the area is an important transportation corridor for wildlife and contains "plant and animal species from pre-development times. There's a very diverse biology."
Stow said he was impressed with the turnout at the meeting as well as the sense everyone was on the same page.
"Everyone was supportive of the need for a plan," he said.
Stow said the city "tries to take a hands-off approach to core natural environments as it has been for thousands of years."
But with the increase in use over the last three or four years, the city now "sees the need for more proactive management."
The area has a number of species at risk that call the area home.
Stow says the three "big ones" are the Blanding turtle, whippoorwill and the common night hawk. Stow says 12 or more species listed at risk use the hills and there are many other regionally significant species that can be found. The area also supports many of the larger mammals such as black bears, moose and white-tailed deer.
The most important next step following the meeting is to do an environmental assessment which has to account for all four seasons. Following that process, stakeholders will be able to begin to put together a management plan. Stow calls the city's partnership with the Friends of the Carp Hills an important one.
"We really appreciate the partnering with the Friends of the Carp Hills," he said. "It makes it possible to do long term stewardship of areas like this."

Dolphins 'love to surf along with us'
Valu Maka

WITH summer in full swing Hector's dolphins are coming out to play in the Riverton area.
They can be sighted at Colac Bay, Riverton Rocks and near Mitchell's Bay at times.
Southland Surf School coach Jessica Terrill said she had seen about five of the mammals at Colac Bay this summer.
"You often see them travel in small groups."
The dolphins were regular visitors but were more visible to the public during summer, she said.
"They love to surf along with us and when you catch waves it's almost like they are racing you."
Ms Terrill has been a surf coach for about 10 years in the region and said the dolphin numbers appeared to be slowly but surely increasing.
Colac Bay marine researcher Gemma McGrath said two types of dolphins appeared at Riverton and Colac Bay regularly, bottlenose and Hector's dolphins.
Hector's dolphins could be identified by their black round-shaped fin and their size, as they were one of the world's smallest dolphins.
They were native to New Zealand and had a small range along the shoreline, of 30km-0km, which meant they usually remained within their local area.
The Hector's dolphins at Colac Bay might be different individuals from the ones around the corner at Riverton, Ms McGrath said.
She advised the public to behave responsibly when out near the dolphins.
"Give them their space but enjoy them.
"They are really special, only found in Aotearoa and a lot of the time they are keen to interact."
It was a privilege and honour to be in the same space as the mammals, she said.
"They are quite gentle, inquisitive and friendly."
She had studied the mammals for about 20 years, and had researched the Hector's dolphins in the region for about three-and-a-half years.
She had found some Riverton articles dating back to 1922 during her research.
The dolphins were referred to as porpoises until the 1980s, she said.
She hoped to see their numbers increase during the next few years.
"It's a very slow, precious recovery rate, but we have seen calves every year and we've seen them grow up to be little dolphins. So if we could see more of that, that would be great."

September 10th and 11th: Irma is on its way.
I have added bonus short and long range videos for Weather Talk subscribers. These are in addition to all the other products that I bring to you on a daily basis.
The videos are normally posted on Monday through Friday. Typically, videos will be updated during the morning and afternoon hours. I will personally update videos during active weather.
You must have a Weather Talk subscription ($3 a month) to view the videos.
If you believe you missed a video then you can also click the LIVE FEED link on the Weather Talk website. You will find the most recent and previous seven days worth of links on that page.
This forecast update covers southern Illinois, southeast Missouri, western Kentucky. and extreme northwest Tennessee.
Forecast: Mostly clear. Cool temperatures. Patchy fog.
Forecast: Partly to mostly sunny. Pleasant temperatures. Some increase in clouds during the afternoon from southeast to northwest.
Winds: Light and variable winds. Winds mostly north and northeast at 5 to 10 mph early increasing to 7 to 14 mph afternoon. Higher gusts possible late.
Forecast: Increasing clouds late. Gusty winds developing. Rain developing over the Kentucky/Tennessee border counties. If rain develops it would move from the southeast towards the northwest. It will rotate into the area. Opposite of how precipitation normally moves in our region. This will be the remnants of Irma. Rain should spread towards southeast Missouri and southern Illinois. Some question as to how far northwest the rain will push. Best rain chances will be late at night.
Winds: North and northwest winds increasing to 15 to 30 mph. Higher gusts possible.
What impacts are anticipated from the weather? Wet roadways. Gusty winds developing.
My confidence in the forecast verifying: Medium.
Forecast: Rain likely. Locally heavy downpours. Gusty winds. Cool.
Winds: North and northeast winds at 15 to 30 mph with gusts to 40 mph possible.
What impacts are anticipated from the weather? Wet roadways. Gusty winds possible.
Is severe weather expected? Unlikely, but monitor updates.
Forecast: Mostly cloudy. Scattered rain showers.
Winds: Northeast winds at 10 to 20 mph. Gusty winds possible.
Forecast: Mostly cloudy. Some remaining showers possible. Cool. If Irma departs faster then temperatures will be a bit higher than forecasted.
Winds: Southeast winds at 8 to 16 mph. Gusty winds possible.
Forecast: Some clouds. A chance for scattered showers. Rain should be ending.
Forecast: A mix of sun and clouds. Mild.
Sunday night through Monday night: Severe weather is not anticipated.
Tuesday through Wednesday night: The remnants of Hurricane Irma will push into our region. At this time, the tornado threat appears low. With that said, monitor updates. Occasionally dying tropical systems can produce brief tornadoes in our region. Locally heavy rain is possible with Irma, but widespread heavy rain or flash flooding is not anticipated. Most of the area needs rain.
Southcentral Kentucky experienced heavy rain from Harvey. Those areas could have some water issues if heavy rain develops. Monitor updates.
Our nice weather is about to end. Most of us need rain, so I am not going to complain.
Hurricane Irma moved ashore, as a category four hurricane, on Sunday morning. Winds over 120 mph whipped the islands. A large storm surge caused severe damage. As I type this, the system is spreading northward through Florida.
Irma will spread northward over the next 12 to 24 hours. It will then start to turn a bit more to the northwest. The National Hurricane Center's official track forecast brings Irma into our region on Tuesday.
The D represents a depression. Depression is the weakest form of the tropical system. Depression is followed by tropical storm and that is followed by hurricane. Depression is the lowest end point of a dying tropical system.
Gusty winds will be a concern as the system pulls through our region.
The impact from the remnants won't be all that impressive. Gusty winds will occur and some downpours. What is not anticipated is widespread tornado activity or flash flooding. We believe that Irma will weaken considerably on Monday night into Tuesday night.
Winds gusts could reach 40 mph. Not sure we see higher than that. This is one part of the forecast that I will be monitoring.
Here is the high resolution NAM guidance. This is for late Monday night and Tuesday. Winds could reach or gust above 40 mph.
Rainfall totals will vary. The heavier totals will occur near the center of the dying hurricane. We certainly could see some one to two-inch amounts in my forecast counties. The best chance of those would be over south central Kentucky into northwest Tennessee. How far north and west the heavier rain spreads is still a bit questionable.
Zoomed in. Click to enlarge.
Here is the GFS model guidance. This is how it sees Irma unfolding. The time stamp is the top left of the animation.
Canadian model holds the rain off until Tuesday morning. Some disagreement on the exact timing of the rain.
The NAM model, on the other hand, attempts to bring rain into our region on Monday afternoon. This seems a bit fast, but I can't rule it out.
1 PM Monday. This is the high-resolution 3K NAM model. It brings rain in faster.
Here is the 7 PM Monday future-cast radar map. What radar might look like on Monday evening. Again, the NAM is a bit faster than some other guidance packages.
Occasionally, land-falling hurricanes can produce tornadoes in our region. At this time, that appears unlikely.
The SPC has not outlined our region for severe weather. I will continue to monitor trends (in case something changes). The SPC will update these maps several times between now and the arrival time of the remnants of Irma.
Severe threat is noted along the East Coast as Irma moves north/northwest.
Temperatures will be well below normal as Irma approaches our region. Thick clouds and rain will be the cause.
Temperature anomaly forecast for Tuesday. Normal high temperatures are 85 degrees and normal low temperatures are 60 degrees.
The confidence level is low to medium for the long range forecast.
I am monitoring September 17th/18th for a cold front. Long way out and confidence is low.
Temperatures should push to near normal by late in the week into the weekend.

Millions of people in the western United States and Asia will watch the sun turn into a 'ring of fire' this weekend.
Shadows on the ground will also turn into crescents and 'rings' of light as moon covers as much as 94% of the sun this Sunday.
'Because some of the sun is always exposed during the eclipse, ambient daylight won't seem much different than usual. Instead, the event will reveal itself in the shadows. Look on the ground beneath leafy trees for crescent-shaped sunbeams and rings of light,' says Nasa.

The shattered remains of planets that bear a striking resemblance to our own Earth have been found around white dwarf stars – offering a vision of what will one day happen to our planet.
University of Warwick astrophysicists found four white dwarves surrounded by the dust of shattered planets.
White dwarfs are the final stage of life of stars like our Sun – once the thermonuclear furnace inside a star 'burns out'.
Using the Hubble Space Telescope to carry out the biggest survey to date of the chemical composition of the atmospheres of white dwarf stars, the researchers found that the most frequently occurring elements in the dust around these four white dwarfs were oxygen, magnesium, iron and silicon — the four elements that make up roughly 93 percent of the Earth.
It's evidence that the small, dense stars are surrounded by the 'corpses' of worlds they've 'eaten'.
At least one of the stars is in the process of sucking in the planet's core – rich in iron, nickel and sulphur – at a rate of around a million kilos a second.

Get ready for the moon's most prominent, spectacular appearance of the year. On Saturday night at 11:34 p.m. eastern, the moon becomes full on its closest approach to Earth. This coincidence makes this moon a "Supermoon."
The moon is reaching what's known as its "perigee", the closest approach to earth in its orbit – a mere 221,802 miles away. It will appear 16 percent brighter than the average full moon.
Compared to when it's on the "apogee" side of its orbit, farthest away from earth, it will be 14 percent bigger and 30 percent brighter.

Volleyball: C.B. Aycock Turns Back Neuse Charter (PHOTO GALLERY)
August 17, 2021 Avi Smolka
On Monday evening, the C.B. Aycock volleyball team started off its season with a nail-biting 25-23, 20-25, 25-22, 25-23 victory against Neuse Charter.
First-year head coach Jordyn McGhee also got her first win as the Golden Falcons' head coach.
"I think the girls proved that they wanted it. They came out and shined at the end of each set," McGhee said. "We had some errors, but everybody does because of the first game jitters, but overall they talked through it and played as a team."
During the early stages of the first set, C.B. Aycock flew out of the gate with Alora Stanton's ace giving the Golden Falcons a 12-4 lead, but Neuse Charter mounted a comeback and eventually took a 21-20 lead.
The Golden Falcons battled back, and another ace from Stanton tied things up at 22-22. Laci Best connected on a kill to put the Golden Falcons up 23-22, and C.B. Aycock went on to win the first set 25-23.
"They had the motivation to want to win the first, and I think that's what pulled us through," McGhee said.
In the second set, an ace from Gracie Mooney gave the Golden Falcons a 10-4 lead, but the Cougars outscored the Golden Falcons 21-16 down the stretch to take the second set 25-20.
"The game was point for point, Neuse Charter brought their a-game, and I appreciate that because we needed it for our first game," McGhee said. "It was a good first match for the girls because they had to work to get it."
Late in the third set, the Golden Falcons found themselves down 18-20, and McGhee called a timeout to settle things down and talk it over with her team.
Coming out of the timeout, the Golden Falcons tied the game with back-to-back kills from Clara Coles and Best.
C.B. Aycock then used a quick 5-2 run to come back and win the third set 25-22.
"During the timeout, it's me making sure that they're good," McGhee said. "Point by point and pass by pass, that's how you have to do it because you can't just go out there and goof off.
"So, it was really getting them settled and ready to go again."
In the fourth set, the teams worked through eight ties and six lead changes. With the game tied 23-23, the Golden Falcons won two straight points to win their season opener.
C.B. Aycock (1-0 overall) hosts Princeton today at 5 p.m.

Part Three: Thanksgiving Every Day.
Christmas is bearing down, getting closer every day, and I continue to defiantly focus on Thanksgiving, a week away. I know- super human.
When I started writing this Thanksgiving series with a Barn/Church analogy, I wanted to highlight the spiritual connection that can exist at the barn. Part one (read) was the Beginning Meditation/Grooming and part two (read) was the Sermon/Ride.
Continuing, most church services follow the sermon with an offering of gratitude and financial support. It's almost the same at Barn/Church. We always end the ride on a good note. Most rides are easy to be grateful for but during a challenging ride- it can feel like being made to apologize after a playground scuffle. Still, holding a grudge with a horse is always a mistake. Better to find some common ground and say thank you.
Barn/Church isn't free. The traditional tithe to your place of spiritual sanctuary is one tenth of your income. Horse people smile at this. 10% is an easy month for alot of us, especially if we keep our old campaigners. Horse people put their money where their spiritual sanctuary is, by choice with no regrets.
If you are complaining about the cost of your Church or Barn, it might be time for a change.
The part of church I liked most when I was young was the recessional, with those happy words Go in Peace. It felt good to be released from the restriction of church clothes and church behavior. I hurried into the fresh air and home to the animals.
Leaving the Barn/Church is no one's favorite time. We come early, we stay late. We lose time, we find sanctuary. Somewhere along the way we learn patience and focus. Humility and confidence. You can't buy a good ride- you have to earn it.
Barn/Church is good therapy. Eventually horse-crazy girls (of any age) become women of strength and compassion. Then we Go in Peace.
I don't think horses are God. Horses are vehicles for a physical journey, but it's a spiritual journey as well, to a place larger than our immediate reality. Free of those perimeters, we can connect with our own humanity, and our better selves.
Not everyone has a passion in life. And this is where Thanksgiving every day comes in. I can't explain why horses inspire so many of us; it's a passion that is greater than common sense. It's endlessly Thanksgiving to have a passion so strong that it lifts the day-to-day experience and motivates so much positive awareness and possibility in life.
Happy Thanksgiving. At home or church or barn or school, may passion define your day.

Then they told me to reset the PRAM – made no difference, obviously. Apr 28, 5: Rob Frei Optiarc ad-7170a Frei.

the celestine prophecy on the big screen
by robin palmer
Enjoy Art | Movies
the little novel that could
Back in 1993, first-time novelist James Redfield and his wife Salle packed up their Honda Accord with 1500 copies of his self-published book 'The Celestine Prophecy' and set off for bookstores around the South. Thirteen years later, the worldwide bestseller that became a New Age classic is about to hit the big screen this spring in much the same manner as it started – with its author-cum-screenwriter-cum-producer following his intuition and letting the synchronicities unfold.
Set in Peru, The Celestine Prophecy follows an American man on the hunt for an ancient manuscript. The document contains Nine Insights into the emerging New Age spirituality of the coming millennium, and the American must battle the Peruvian government and church officials who are attempting to squelch knowledge of it.
With the story's focus on the importance of synchronicity, it wasn't surprising that James and Salle's grassroots approach to marketing the tale paid off. "Our philosophy was to walk into a bookstore and give a book to the buyer – many times people in the store would ask for a copy as well," says Redfield. And they told two friends, and they told friends, until a year later, the book was bought by Warner Books for $800,000 and rocketed to the top of the New York Times bestseller list. As readers searched for meaning and spirituality outside of organized religion, The Celestine Prophecy became a publishing sensation and was soon the genesis of discussion groups across the nation.
Because Hollywood knows a good story when it sees one – especially when it's not only a worldwide bestseller, but an action-adventure mystery to boot – it's not surprising that by 1995 every film studio was soon clamoring for the movie rights. While the money they were offering Redfield was huge, what they wouldn't give him was script approval, so that he could ensure that the film would be true to the book – and so he walked away. "It wasn't worth putting out a movie that was just going to be Indiana Jones," he says, "and that's what they wanted."
Meanwhile, he went on to write such books as 'The Tenth Insight: Holding The Vision' and 'The Secret of Shambhala: In Search of the Eleventh Insight, and God' and the 'Evolving Universe: The Next Step in Personal Evolution.' Then, in 2000, the timing was right for him to revisit the idea of bringing Celestine to the screen – with him in the role of screenwriter. "All of that had to be written before I could then stop and go 'okay, I have to write the screenplay for Celestine myself,'" he explains.
Lack of experience in the medium didn't stop him. "It was a download, just like the book," he adds. Not that it came without bugs or kinks; Redfield wrote draft after draft until one day he showed it to his friend Barnet Bain, the producer of the Robin Williams film 'What Dreams May Come,' as well as 'The Linda McCartney Story.' Together, the two men tweaked the script until they were happy with it, and then began to approach producers. Nothing came together – that is, until they decided to raise the money and make the movie themselves. Then, in true Celestine fashion, "as soon as that happened, the synchronistic flow started," says Redfield. "All the other producers came in, as well as the director and the actors."
To helm the film, Redfield, Bain, and Salle Redfield (who served as Executive Producer) chose Armand Mastroianni, a veteran director who had worked on such projects as the television series 'The Dead Zone' as well as a television biopic about Linda McCartney. Together they assembled a cast which included Matthew Settle as John Woodson, Thomas Kretschmann as Wil, Hector Elizondo as Cardinal Sebastian, and Annabeth Gish as Julia.
As group dynamics are an important theme of the book, it's no surprise that the crew said that it was the smoothest shoot they had ever worked on. Although things often seemed to come together only at the last minute, the "people who were right for the project" ended up on board. An interesting piece of synchronicity took place as they were trying to cast the integral role of Wil, a man who is written as half-German, who introduces John Woodson to the Celestine way of life. During negotiations, Matthew Settle (who plays Woodson) switched managers, and it turned out that his new manager was married to East German Thomas Kretchmann, the actor who played the Nazi soldier that befriends Adrien Brody in Roman Polanski's 'The Pianist.'
For many of the actors, the film was an opportunity to further explore and deepen their spirituality – especially Settle, the son of a North Carolina Baptist preacher. In a behind-the-scenes DVD, he talks about going through a "faithless" time and how, during shooting, "what I [was] going through in my personal life [was] what the character was going through."
The overall feel and look of the film is spiritual as well. Visual effects were used by Director of Photography Michael Givens to demonstrate the energy shifts and change in consciousness as the film progresses. "It comes across as artsy and understated, and that's the way it came to me to write. If you don't look closely enough, you can think it's almost too deep," says Redfield. Which is why, much like with 'What The Bleep Do We Know!?,' upon leaving the movie, audience members immediately want to go back and see it again.
As a large component of the Celestine point of view is timing, why was it so important to finally make the movie now? "A deeper spiritual awareness which is attainable more readily than ever before is the cure to the ills in the world," Redfield says. Salle agrees, adding, "People we talk to really want to know their mission and purpose in life – no longer do they wonder if they have one, now it's 'I know I have one and now I need to find it.' In the past it was a luxury – now it's a necessity."
"We think the film is a model energetically," Redfield says – both in terms of the look and feel of the movie as well as the filmmakers' philosophy behind the scenes. Hopefully this more conscious, spiritual approach to filmmaking will pay off – not just inspiring people to live their lives in the Celestine manner, but also in box office receipts, so that other films of this nature can get made.

How accurate are Groundhog Day predictors? Not very
Tue., Jan. 31, 2012timer1 min. read
As the world turns its attention to Punxsutawney and Wiarton ahead of Thursday's Groundhog Day celebrations, an important fact is likely to be overlooked: The furry little forecasters just aren't that accurate.
The various Groundhog Day organizers — Punxsutawney Phil, Ontario's own Wiarton Willie, Nova Scotia's Shubenacadie Sam, and Alberta's 'Prairie Prognosticator' Balzac Billy — claim that the rodents' forecasts are accurate 75 to 90 per cent of the time. But meteorological records would indicate otherwise.
Biology professor Stam Zervanos looked back at Punxsutawney Phil, a tradition now celebrating its 126th year. He estimates that Phil or his ancestors could predict with only 39 per cent accuracy that winters continued to be cold for several weeks following the appearance of its shadow on Feb. 2, or were milder than usual after it couldn't see a shadow.
Canadian groundhogs' predictions are even worse: based on several decades of data, they are correct only 37 per cent of the time. According to Encyclopedia Canada, 33 per cent accuracy can occur just by chance.
When you break it down by city, the chances of any weather-forecasting marmot getting it right in Toronto fall to about 29 per cent. The best odds of an accurate prediction are in Yellowknife, where a groundhog seeing its shadow translates to six more weeks of cold winter about half the time.
Inexact science though it may be, gamblers seem inspired to roll the dice on the furry prognosticator.
Online gambling site Intertops.com has listed the early odds heavily in favour of Punxsutawney Phil seeing his shadow once again this year, at 2/9 odds. On the flip side, it lists 13/4 odds Phil won't see his shadow.
Intertops isn't listing odds for Canadian groundhogs. Weather data for 13 cities across Canada reveals there tends to be an equal number of cloudy and sunny days on Feb. 2.

Hail State Pics/Mississippi State Athletics
STARKVILLE, Miss. — The Mississippi State baseball team opened up the 2019 season this weekend with a three-game sweep against the Youngstown State Penguins at the new Dudy Noble Field.
The Diamond Dawgs played one game Friday and a double-header Saturday to begin the 2019 season under first-year head coach Chris Lemonis.
FRIDAY'S GAME: The Diamond Dawgs began the season slow, but some late game offense pushed MSU past Youngstown 14-3.
Starting pitcher Ethan Small struck out the first five batters he saw as both teams failed to score a run through three frames.
Youngstown State scored two runs in the top of the fourth and another in the top of the sixth to take a 3-0 lead.
The Diamond Dawgs then scored 14 runs between the sixth and eighth innings in the season-opening 14-3 victory.
Small pitched a career-best 11 strikeouts without allowing a walk. He allowed two runs on four hits.
Peyton Plumlee pitched the sixth and seventh inning and allowed one run on one hit. He struck out two batters and walked one.
Cole Gordon (1-0) then pitched a perfect eighth inning and earned the win. Colby White pitched a one-hit ninth inning where he struck out three batters.
The eighth inning featured 11 runs on nine hits, including a three-run home run by Elijah MacNamee. Gunner Halter and Rowdey Jordan also chipped in with two-RBI hits.
SATURDAY GAME 1:
The Diamond Dawgs scored 14 unanswered points in a 14-2 win in the first game of a double-header on Saturday.
State scored three runs in the first inning, four in the second, three in the third and fourth and one in the fifth.
Youngstown State opened the scoring with a two-out, two-run home run, but it was all MSU the rest of the way.
Tanner Allen knocked in six runs in the game, including a three-run home run in the bottom of the second inning. Jake Mangum also fueled the Dawgs with two RBIs and three runs on three-for-four hitting.
MacNamee plated three runs in the contest as well.
Pitching wise, JT Ginn (1-0) earned the win in five innings of work. He allowed just the two first-inning runs. He struck out seven, walked one and allowed just two hits.
Jack Eagan struck out four batters and walked one in two innings of relief pitching. Eric Cerantola and Spencer Price pitched the final two innings.
The Diamond Dawgs completed the season-opening sweep with an 8-0 win over the Penguins in the Saturday double-header.
Justin Foscue's first home run of the season gave the Diamond Dawgs a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the second. MacNamee them hit a fielder's choice RBI in the third to give State a 2-0 lead before a Foscue double scored him to push the lead to 3-0.
MSU then scored three runs in the fourth on a three-RBI double from Allen to make it a 6-0 ballgame.
Hayden Jones hit a solo homer in the fifth to make it 7-0 before an eighth-inning triple by Jordan Westburg rounded out the scoring.
Keegan James (1-0) made his first start since April 13, 2016 and threw five scoreless innings. He allowed four hits, walked two and struck out six to earn the win.
Four relief pitchers then pitched an inning apiece to keep the shutout intact.
The Diamond Dawgs will now face the UAB Blazers (3-0) on Wednesday. First pitch is slated for 4 p.m. CT.


When teenage twins Rachel and Theo Matheson investigate the creepy old house next door, they discover the Wilberforces - shape-shifting creatures that lurk beneath Auckland's ring of extinct volcanoes. Guided by the mysterious Mr Jones and with the help of their older cousin Ricky, the twins must rekindle the unique powers they once shared if they are to destroy this ancient evil - before it destroys them.
M Contains horror and supernatural themes.

CONSERVATIVE IRANIAN CLERIC AYATOLLAH MESBAH YAZDI PASSES AWAY
Iranian conservative cleric Ayatollah Mohammad-Taqi Mesbah Yazdi died in Tehran on Friday, according to Iran's state-run Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA).
The Imam Khomeini Educational and Research Institute, which Mesbah Yazdi headed, said he had been hospitalized over the past few days with a disease in his digestive system, Sugam Pokharel reported for CNN on January 2, 2021.
The prominent cleric played a major part in the 1979 uprising that overthrew the Western-backed Shah of Iran, Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, according to Iran's state-run Press TV.
Mesbah Yazdi was seen as a hardliner and anti-West in general, including holding anti-US positions. An outspoken critic of a liberal press, he was known to have ratified crackdowns on domestic opposition, feminism and gender equality.
According to regional experts, he was a spiritual mentor to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the former Iranian president who served from 2005 to 2013.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani offered condolences on Mesbah Yazdi's passing, according to Press TV, which reported Mesbah Yazdi was 85 years old.

Otto Braun (28 September 1900 – 15 August 1974) was a German communist journalist and functionary of the Communist Party of Germany with a long and varied career. His most significant role was as a Comintern agent sent to China in 1934 to advise the Communist Party of China (CPC) on military strategy during the Chinese Civil War. At the time Braun adopted a Chinese name, Li De (). It was only many years later that Otto Braun and "Li De" came to be known as the same person.

Early life
Otto Braun was born in Ismaning, Upper Bavaria, near Munich. Even though his mother was still alive, he grew up in an orphanage.

He enrolled at a teachers' training college in Pasing in the Munich area. In June 1918, Braun was drafted into the ranks of the Bavarian army, part of the Imperial German Army, but the First World War ended before he could face combat duty.

After the armistice he went back to complete his studies at the teachers' training college. However, he did not take a job as a primary school teacher. Rather, he joined the newly-founded Communist Party of Germany (KPD). He embarked on what would be a lifelong vocation and career and travelled widely, mainly in North Germany.

Communist activity in the 1920s and early 1930s
It seems that it was in 1921 that Braun became a full-time paid KPD party worker.

He was involved in an affair concerning the theft of some sensitive documents from Colonel Freyberg, a White Russian emigrant based in Berlin. For his part, he was detained by the police in July 1921. He was put on trial but managed to hide his communist connections and to convince the court that he was a "right-winger." The bias that was often exhibited by the judicial system of the Weimar Republic caused the masquerade to help him get off with a light sentence. In fact, he did not go to jail, but went into hiding.

By that time, he was already a central member of the KPD apparatus by not only regularly writing articles for the party papers but also, after 1924, heading the party's "counter-espionage" efforts. He was also deeply involved in its militia and paramilitary activities.

The police caught up with him again in September 1926. He first served his "Freyberg sentence" of 1922 and then was kept in detention at the Moabit Prison. However, on April 11, 1928, a band of Communists, including his then-lover Olga Benário, succeeded in staging his jail break.

The daring escape got worldwide publicity. Braun and Benário then made their way to Moscow, where they became involved in the Communist International. Both of them were at the Lenin School, which was operated by the Comintern. Braun went to the Frunze Military Academy while Benário worked as an instructor of the Communist Youth International, first in the Soviet Union, then in France and England, where she participated in coordinating anti-fascist activities.

Braun and Benário parted ways in 1931. She went on to marry the famous Brazilian revolutionary leader Luís Carlos Prestes and went to live in his country. She was finally arrested by the Getúlio Vargas dictatorship and extradited to Germany, where she was eventually killed by gas at the Bernburg Euthanasia Centre. She is remembered as a martyr by the Brazilian and German left. For his part, Braun embarked on the most significant and, in some ways, the most controversial, part of his revolutionary career, as the Comintern representative in China.

In 1933, Braun married the Chinese communist Xiao Yuehua. They had a son, but they divorced because Otto fell in love with a more beautiful and educated LI Lilian.

In 1938, Braun married another Chinese communist actress LI Lilian. On August 28, 1939, Braun flew back to the Soviet Union nd never met LI Lilian.

In China
In 1932, following his graduation at the Frunze Academy, Soviet Military Intelligence's Fourth Directorate dispatched Braun to Harbin in Manchuria, China. From there he traveled to Shanghai, where he joined the local Comintern bureau. There he was in military affairs under the orders of "General Kleber" (nom de guerre of Manfred Stern), who maintained a "military section" in the city, and in political issues under Arthur Ewert, a fellow German Communist.

However, Shanghai was at that time a backwater in Chinese revolutionary affairs, the local communist movement having been effectively crushed by Chiang Kai-shek's Kuomintang (KMT) in the Shanghai massacre of 1927. The Chinese Communists had subsequently retreated to the countryside and started to organize in the province of Jiangxi. In the later part of 1933 Braun arrived in Ruijin, at that time capital of the "Chinese Soviet Republic" set up by the surviving Chinese Communists, where he became a military adviser.

The precise circumstances of his getting this appointment and his activities in the following years are still debated with some aspects remaining unclear. As noted by Freddy Litten, who thoroughly researched this part of Otto Braun's career, "[Braun]'s memoirs are an important, though dubious, source for the events of these years".

At the time, the Kuomintang, perceiving the Communists as a dangerous threat to its rule, launched a series of vigorous attacks on the CPC in urban areas. Its forces came near to Ruijin, which was in danger of being surrounded and became untenable. The CPC initiated the Long March to escape this danger. Braun, under his assumed Chinese name "Li De", was nearly the only foreigner to participate in the Long March and might have even been the original proposer of the idea of embarking on such a march in an effort to reach the safer interior of China.

In the later part of 1934, Braun/Li De assumed a position of command in the early First Front Army, together with Zhou Enlai and Bo Gu, with authority to make all military decisions. Braun advocated for the First Front Army to directly attack the far larger and better-equipped KMT Army. The First Front Army's suffered great casualties and so CPC forces fell drastically from 86,000 to about 25,000, within a year.

In 1935, the CPC met at the Zunyi Conference, where Mao Zedong and Peng Dehuai expressed their opposition to Braun, Bo Gu and their tactics. Mao argued that the direct attacks were costing lives and suggested that smaller and less-well-equipped forces should run and surround the KMT by using the guerrilla tactics for which Mao was to become famed. (Mao already distrusted European advisors from the Comintern, especially since in the 1920s advisers such as the Dutch Henk Sneevliet had given  disastrous advice to the Chinese Communists.) Other military wing leaders agreed with Mao and so Braun and Bo Gu were removed as the military commanders, and Mao become the leader of the Long March. After this conference, the Comintern was pushed aside, and "Native Communists" took control of the CPC.

Still, Braun stayed in China until 1939 and participated in the Long March along with the CPC. No longer holding a military command, he was mainly involved in advisory work and some teaching of tactics.

Though never returning to China after le left in 1939, he continued to show interest in Chinese affairs for the rest of his life.

Soviet period in the 1940s
In 1939 Braun arrived in the Soviet Union. At the time, that was a very dangerous place for foreign communists, many of whom, iincluding German communists, were imprisoned, tortured or killed by Joseph Stalin's secret police (NKVD), despite being completely loyal to the revolutionary cause and having often undergone persecution for its sake in their own countries. Braun managed to avoid such a fate though he faced some political difficulties immediately upon his arrival.

The Moscow Foreign Languages Press gave him employment as an editor and translator. After the German invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941, use was made of his German antecedents by making him a "polit-instrukteur" striving to turn the loyalty of German officers captured by the Soviets. In that role, he used an old alias from the 1920s, "Kommissar Wagner". He later performed a similar tactic towards captive Japanese officers as well.

Between 1946 and 1948, he was based at Krasnogorsk, Moscow Oblast, where he lectured in the Antifascist Central School. Afterwards, he had another period of working in the Moscow Foreign Languages Press.

Return to Germany and later years
Only after the death of Stalin was Otto Braun allowed to return to his homeland after nearly three decades of exile.

Following his arrival at the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) Braun became a fellow at the Institute for Marxism-Leninism maintained by the Central Committee of ruling Socialist Unity Party (SED), as the Communist Party was officially called. His main responsibility was the publication in German of the writings of Vladimir Lenin.

He was First Secretary of the German Writers' Association from 1961 to 1963when he fell from grace. Already in his mid-sixties, he was for some time a pensioner doing some freelance translation from Russian.

His return to the authorities' good books was evident when in 1964 the ruling party's organ Neues Deutschland carried the revelation that the otherwise unknown Li De, involved in the Chinese Long March of the 1930s, had been in fact none other than the German Otto Braun.

This gave Braun the possibility and the impetus to write his Chinese Notes. As mentioned, researchers consider these as full of interesting information, particularly useful as offering a different angle to that of official Chinese Communist historiographybut in themselves far from objective or impartial. They were written in the late 1960s when Braun was also a fellow of the Institute for Social Sciences. The memoirs were published in book form at 1973 and translated to Chinese, English and other languages.

Braun died at age 74, while on vacation in Varna, Bulgaria. He was buried in East Berlin, and his obituaries appeared in Pravda and in The New York Times.

Římskokatolický kostel Panny Marie zvaný "Pod lipami" nebo také "U naší milé paní" je hřbitovní kostel na broumovském městském hřbitově a jedna z nejstarších dochovaných dřevěných staveb v Čechách. Nachází se v okrese Náchod.

Dějiny
Podle pověsti byl kostel založen v roce 1177 (tedy krátce po založení obce v roce 1171). Byl údajně postaven jakousi pohanskou šlechtičnou, která na tomto místě přijala křest. Šlechtična rovněž měla věnovat kostelu svou perlovou čelenku, která je dnes uložena v městském muzeu.

První písemná zmínka o kostele je z roku 1383, kdy je označován jako "starý farní kostel" nebo "český kostel". Samotná stavba je z roku 1449, přestavovaná v 16. století a roku 1811.

Ve dnech 17. až 20. června 1421 oblehla husitská vojska pod vedením Čeňka z Vartemberka a Hynka Krušiny z Lichtenburka Broumov. Vlastní město nedobyli ale vyplenili jeho předměstí. Přitom byl vážně poškozen nebo zničen i kostel Panny Marie. V literatuře jsou uváděny domněnky, že kostel nebyl zničen zcela, protože strop kostela je z doby předhusitské. Současné práce tuto domněnku vyvracejí.

Po požáru v roce 1449 proběhla oprava kostela do podoby, v jaké je znám dnes. Jako rok dokončení se uvádí rok 1450, pro toto vročení ale nejsou známy žádné důkazy. V roce 1550 byla obnovena věžička poté, co ji strhl vítr. Další oprava věžičky proběhla v roce 1811. V polovině 18. století byla nad kněžiště vestavěna zvonice, která ale nepřevyšuje hřeben střechy. Současně byl zbudován nový oltář a za ním zřízena sakristie.

Ochoz byl původně uzavřen prkennými stěnami. Ochoz nechal opravit opat Sartorius na konci 17. století.  V době války o bavorské dědictví byla ale na rozkaz pruského generála Heinricha Wilhelma von Anhalt v roce 1779 prkna stržena. Od té doby je ochoz na všech stranách otevřený.

V roce 2008 byl kostel prohlášen národní kulturní památkou.

Kostel

Kostel je jednolodní orientovaná stavba. Na kamenné podezdívce a prahu z dubových trámů stojí hrázděná dubová konstrukce, pobitá zevnitř i zvenčí prkny. Okolo celého kostela je otevřený ochoz, krytý pultovou střechou. Kostel měl původně dva vstupy, jeden na západní a druhý na severní straně. Během úpravy v 18. století byl zřízen i třetí vstup do nově vzniklé sakristie. Oba původní vstupy mají portály s gotickou profilací. Vnitřní prostor je rozdělen na loď, kněžiště s trojbokým závěrem a sakristii. Na západní straně lodi je kruchta. Strop je trámový, pobitý rovněž prkny.

Interiér

Nástropní malby

Prkna stropu jsou ozdobena šablonovou výmalbou. Jde o bílé motivy na červenohnědém podkladu, otisky provedené temperovou barvou. Motivy jsou rostlinné, lovecké (zajíc, jelen), heraldické (gryf, slezská orlice s  písmenem S) a dále texty gotickou frakturou.

Starší autoři považovali tuto výzdobu za předhusitskou a odvozovali z toho, že původní kostel nebyl v roce 1421 zcela zničen. Novější autoři datují tuto výzdobu  do  období obnovení kostela po roce 1450. Je zde značná podobnost s výzdobou dřevěných kostelů v jižním Polsku (například kostel svatého Michala Archanděla v Dębnie Podhalańském). Hanna Pieńkowska odvozuje tento druh výzdoby od italských textilních vzorů.. Tomáš Edel dokazoval na příkladech gotického nábytku (skříně, truhly), že i v Čechách byla v 15. století tato dekorace běžná. Podobná výzdoba stěn je pozdější.

Oltáře
 Na pozdně barokním hlavním oltáři z poloviny 18. století je výklenek s rámem neseným dvěma barokními anděly. Ve výklenku stojí novodobá sériová kopie Panny Marie Lurdské z konce 19. století. Bývala tam poutní soška Panny Marie (Mater Amabilis Braunae - Milostná matka broumovská), korunované dvěma anděly, pozdně gotická dřevořezba z přelomu 15. a 16. století, která byl z této "kapličky pod lipami" v 19. století přenesena do klášterního kostela sv. Vojtěcha, kde je k vidění dosud. Dochovalo se její grafické vyobrazení od Jana Kleinerta. Na predelle oltáře je reliéf s kolovým křížem svatého Benedikta (Crux sancti patris Benedicti), řádový znak benediktinů, kteří kostel spravovali.
 Boční oltář nalevo (na evangelní straně) dal postavit broumovský primas Nikolaus Schlögel v roce 1696 původně jako oltář svaté Anny. Dnes je zasvěcen svatému Josefu.
 Boční oltář napravo (na epištolní straně) je zasvěcen svatému Janu Nepomuckému. Původní oltář podle znaku a iniciál na něm dochovaném nechal postavit broumovský primas Jakob Matthes Köppel von Capellen (zemřel 1678).
Oba oltáře byly přestavěny do dnešní podoby v období rokoka.

Obrazy
Obraz Panny Marie (olejomalba 109 x 260 cm) dal namalovat opat Wolfgang Selender v roce 1609. V horní části obrazu je Panna Marie s Nejsvětější trojicí a devíti anděli, kteří nesou nástroje Kristova umučení. Ve střední části jsou patroni země České (svatí: Václav, Ivan, Vít, Zikmund, Ludmila, Vojtěch, Cyril a Metoděj, Prokop, pět bratří. V dolní části obrazu je pak nejstarší známé vyobrazení města Broumova, zachycující původní stav středověké klášterní pevnosti.

Epitaf Heinricha Maxima Fabricia, jeho ženy Dorothey rozené Clamtin a jejich dětí z roku 1665. Olejomalba malíře Damsmana. V horní části je korunování Panny Marie, v dolní části je pak zpodobněn donátor s rodinou.

Ochoz kostela
 Devět dřevěných desek, na kterých jsou kronikářské záznamy z let 1542-1847, většinou o požárech (1549, 1757 atd.) a dalších pohromách (například kobylky 1542, sražení kostelní věžičky vichrem 1550, povodeň 1570, mor 1582, 1586, 1632, vojenský vpád pruského vojska 1779, rekvizice 1810, cholera 1847); 2 jsou vystaveny v městském muzeu. Nejmladší deska z konce 19. století připomíná vystěhování několika desítek broumovských rodin do Chile v letech 1871–1874.
 Ve zdech jsou vsazeny renesanční a empírové náhrobky ze zrušených hrobů. Další renesanční a empírové náhrobky se nacházejí na přilehlém hřbitově.

Cenné umělecké předměty z výzdoby kostela jsou dnes z bezpečnostních důvodů umístěny v broumovském klášteře. V některých případech jsou nahrazeny kopiemi nebo reprodukcemi.
