For the first time since 2006, the Cape Cod Baseball League will experience a postseason without the Bourne Braves.
Following an 8-2 loss to the Cotuit Kettleers, the field is set for the West Division, though seeding will be determined in the coming days.
Starter Austin Pope (Fairfield) struggled with his command, allowing four earned runs on eight hits over four innings.
After a couple swings from Peyton Burdick (Wright State) gave the Kettleers an early lead, Bourne's Ashton Bardzell (Hartford) cut the deficit in half in the fourth inning but produced the lone RBI hit of the night for the Braves. Infielder Tyler Fitzgerald (Louisville) added a run off of a groundout in the sixth.
Bourne left 14 men on base, stranding at least two runners in five of the final six innings.
Riddled with injuries over the second half of the season, the Braves continued to rally, showing resilience down to their final out.


› Grateful for a restful 4th.
I've traveled for family reasons or had shows (or both!) for the last 11 consecutive weekends. Being fully booked can be a good way to deal with…whatever, but this weekend, I got to stay home.
I spent yesterday morning installing (with pro electrical help) our whole house fan, taking two naps, hanging with friends for 4th bbq, and then slept 12 straight hours. S'pose that means it's time to come to a complete halt. SO very grateful for 75º temps, and last night, 70º felt cold!!! Hope you're all having a restful long weekend.


I'm sure many of you have seen the video of a small, unsupervised toddler falling into a swimming pool and "self rescuing" himself. We have heard many individuals proclaim how incredible this video is and how all children should be able to do this. We have also heard of programs in our area that teach this technique. However, the part that this video does not show is the traumatic and abusive methods used to teach that child how to rescue himself.
The Infant Self Rescue technique is not something we approve of or condone in any way. Tossing a child into the water and forcing them to struggle to save themselves when an adult is standing within reach is a form of abuse. Betraying the child's trust and making them fearful of water goes against everything we believe. However, creating water-wise children who can save themselves if absolutely necessary is our goal.
We want our students to trust us and enjoy swimming. We want them to laugh and love coming to class. We want to create life-long swimmers who can appreciate the joys of water their entire lives! And in order to do that, we have to make swimming an enjoyable priority. We do this through games, songs, and laughter. You may notice a little more "play" in our lower levels and that is because we believe that in order for a child to learn how to swim, they must first learn how to enjoy water. A child who enjoys coming to swimming lessons and completely trusts their instructor will flourish. So if you see an instructor playing a game or singing songs, be assured that they are doing so in order to help the children enjoy the water. A fearful child cannot be expected to learn how to swim, because their primary focus is their own safety.
There are several programs we have pulled from and adapted to create our infant/toddler and preschool programs. The premise of our program is based on the United States Swim School Association's Infant/Toddler Curriculum. This can be seen in all of our classes, from small class size to the warm water temperatures. We have also worked with some of the industry's leading experts to create an enjoyable, comfortable atmosphere for our students. We believe that children are the most successful when they are in a class where they trust the instructor and are comfortable exploring.
Not only have we learned from the experts, but we have also created our own guidelines and structure for our program. With over 25 years of experience in aquatic education, we have learned what works and what does not. We know that not every student is going to "hit it off" with all their instructors and sometimes you have to find the right fit. We also know that before we can create a comfortable environment for our students, we have to create instructors who know how to be exceptional teachers. With the help of the USSSA training programs and others in our industry, we are constantly striving to provide the world-class service we know our customers deserve and expect. In an effort to provide the best swimming lessons possible, we have established Eleven Teaching Principles that our staff follows. These principles guide our instructors and our classes and we would like to share them with our customers.
1. Respect – Respect is unconditional. Treating kids with respect will teach them to respect you. Teachers are authority figures. Students care about what you think of them. It is great to be silly and have fun, but they need to know there are boundaries that they do not cross. In turn, teachers must take care when discussing things both in front of the students and with other people. Harsh words can leave lasting pain.
2. Keep the kids safe – Following the rules keeps kids safe. Be consistent in correcting misbehavior – they will respect you and trust you because they can count on you to be consistent. Inconsistency is confusing and an unruly class is dangerous.
3. Clearly communicate expectations – Good teachers let students know exactly what they expect from them. Even if you told them last week, you'll probably have to tell them again! It's important to communicate with parents too. If you need a certain behavior from a child, don't hesitate to talk to a parent. It's best to solve issues right away instead of letting them grow and become worse. Behavior doesn't change without communication. It is your job to communicate.
4. Catch kids doing things right – It is a lot more fun to watch for what they do right than for what they do wrong. However, we look for ways that they can do things even better. Sincere praise to a child is like sunshine and water to a flower – they will bloom and grow.
5. Discipline is natural consequences – There is a consequence for every behavior. Sometimes we like the consequence, sometimes we don't. When you choose good behavior, there are good consequences. When you make bad choices, there are bad consequences. Consequences have to make sense to kids. If they can't stay where they are told – they must sit in time-out. If they come off the swim gym – they go under (not too long).
6. Be enthusiastic – Enthusiasm is contagious! Be positive. It's important that the kids know that you believe in them, that you know that they can do it! Show them with your words and your facial expressions. Enthusiastic teachers go the extra mile to get students to do whatever is necessary for the student to learn.
7. Daily challenges – If you expect a lot from your students, they will try hard to achieve your goals for them. Every lesson must challenge the student. If you're not moving forward, you are falling behind.
8. Daily Successes – All humans must experience success to maintain motivation. As teachers, we must find a way for each of our students to experience at least some level of success during every lesson. These successes must be celebrated with high fives and shared with parents as thumbs ups.
9. Perpetual Motion – Kids are the epitome of perpetual motion. They are constantly moving. Our lessons should reflect this characteristic. More time on task and practice is equal to improved learning. Be creative, find ways to control the class but make the most of their time.
10. Creativity, Variety, Fun – This is the environment most conducive to learning. Though we follow a basic lesson plan, the outstanding teachers are the ones who make the classes fun using creativity and variety.
11. Love, Empathy, Compassion – If you think about the people you love the most, they would probably be described in this manner. As teachers, it is okay to love your students. It is expected that you have compassion when they have a bad day. Be excited when it is their birthday. Say "Hi" and give smiles and hugs if you see them out in public. You are an important part of their life!!
This is what we strive for and that is our goal for each of our students. We are passionate about aquatic education and water safety. We do this because we love children and we want to see them grow. This is what we do and we hope that we are doing it well!
If you have questions about our curriculum or the difference between our program and infant survival swimming, please contact us. We would be more than happy to share more information.

Wolves center Gorgui Dieng isn't surprised by his recent success on the court. He's maintained since the Draft last summer he knew he was ready to make the jump to the NBA after his junior year at Louisville, and when he got the opportunity at this level he was ready to make his mark.
The Wolves' first-year big man won Western Conference Rookie of the Month honors for March, the league announced on Tuesday. Dieng, who picked up minutes due to starting center Nikola Pekovic's ankle injury, put together a string of five double-doubles in six starts—including the Wolves' first rookie 20-20 game—and averaged 8.6 points and 8.3 boards in 14 games this March.

Outdoor Greenhouse Classroom at Lila School
February 28, 2021 keith Greenhouse Domes
The Sentient Plant BioDome at the Los Feliz Campus by Pacific Domes
The Sentient Plant BioDome Project at Los Feliz campus in Los Angeles, California has a cool device for measuring and recording electrical signals from plants. The Sentient Plant BioDome Project is made possible by Phytl Signs, a 'wearable' device for plants that measures and records electrical signals emitted by plants.
At the BioDome outdoor classroom, students connect the Phytl Signs device to a clip that's gently attached to a leaf on a plant; and, subsequently, to a stake that's driven into the soil right next to the plant. Both sensors capture and amplify the electrical signals that plants emit in response to their environment.
Phytl Signs researchers claim that plants will fire off signals, based on conditions like light/darkness, damage to the plant, and much more. The signals are then transmitted to the Phytl Signs app on a student's phone or tablet.
Through the Phytl Signs explorer app, students connect with the Phytl Signs ongoing research community to discuss plant signals, gaining insight into the exciting new frontier of decoding the mysteries of plant signals. The BioDome outdoor classroom learning environment affords students practical hands-on experience in understanding the sentient life of plants; thereby, deepening their appreciation and inter-connectedness with the natural world.
Students in the Sentient Plant BioDome Project at Lila have the opportunity to ask many important questions such as… Is your plant thriving or is it stressed? Is it active or quiet? Are pests damaging your plants?
Through their electrical signals, plants show how they are responding to their environment. So, it's more about interpreting signals than actually having a conversation with your plants?
While the Swiss manufacturer of Phytl Signs, Vivent SARL, says it can collect these signals, it admits that no one really knows what they mean just yet. "Ultimately, by decoding these signals, we could help ensure that the planetary ecosystem is thriving". We could feed more people, reduce the scourge of plant diseases, minimize the water used in agriculture… the possibilities are really exciting for anyone interested in the environment, sustainability, the future of food and open agriculture."
The BioDome outdoor classroom, created by Mileece for the Los Feliz campus is a tensegrity geodesic-engineered structure manufactured by Pacific Domes of Southern Oregon. Pacific Domes is an industry leader in the manufacture of prefab outdoor classrooms.
Mileece is a multi-disciplinary sonic artist, environment designer and renewable energy ambassador. Her life's work is about creating projects that "facilitate connections between people and plants."
The Biodome space perfectly symbolizes the balance of the Lila School community and doubles as a safe haven for students to engage in mindfulness thru breathing exercises, mindful movement, mindful listening, practice in feeling gratitude and compassion. The soothing sound of running water from the stream, growing plants, animal and nature sounds, all provide sensory experiences that afford students and peers needed time-to-take-a-break from the monkey brain and focus on the peaceful now moment… "it is a very special place for students at Lila School, and they always look forward to visiting it."
"At the Los Feliz campus we are very proud of our BioDome outdoor classroom."
About Lila School
Lila School (Lycée International de Los Angeles aka International School of Los Angeles) was established in 1978 as a non-profit organization by visionaries of varied cultural backgrounds who felt that the Los Angeles community needed a school which would prepare children for life in an increasingly international environment. The International School of Los Angeles is a 5-campus, international preschool thru 12th grade school, committed to academic excellence in a nurturing and intimate environment that encourages personal initiative, creativity and curiosity.
Students are challenged through the rigorous and well-balanced bilingual curricula of the French and International Baccalaureate institutions with a goal to develop confident, caring, and open-minded critical thinkers who will thrive in a diverse competitive world. At Lila school, they adopt ways of thinking and expression that reflect an appreciation for cultural differences and multiple world views.
Diverse groups learn more from each other when exchanging different points of view, introducing new pieces of information, and confronting alternative ideas. The school's small and nurturing classes facilitate the sharing of different viewpoints.
Being immersed in a truly multicultural environment helps develop the ability to better understand one's own culture – what makes it different, but also in which ways it is similar. This, in turn, helps maintain a strong sense of one's own background.
Teachers, staff and students come from all over the world, each bringing their own experiences and perspectives. Students study and live in a world community every day. Lila school is now recognized as one of the most academically challenging private schools in the United States and continues its long commitment to academic excellence.

Blockchain VR Startup Raises $25 Million on ICO
amilev@gmail.com
Decentraland, which is building a virtual world based on the blockchain announced it had raised $25 million during its ICO (initial coin offering) in mid-August 2017.
In the past year, ICOs have become a popular way of raising funds selling cryptocurrency to the public. Due to their unregulated nature, some commentators have voiced concerns over potential risks, cautioning the public to do their homework before making an investment decision.
According to Decentraland blog post, the ICO had seen over 2,000 unique buyers purchasing more than 86,000 Etherum (ETH).
Ethereum is a public, blockchain-based platform providing a cryptocurrency known as "ether" used by many of the companies to carry out ICOs.
The total value of the crowdsale reported by Decentraland would mean that the average single contribution was worth 43 ETH or over $12,500 based on the ETH price at the time of the offering.
According to unconfirmed claims the company had prevented a significant number of participants from buying into the offering, locking them out of the ICO.
The company also confirmed a lot of transactions hadn't gone through during the ICO.
"Due to the overwhelming response to the project, almost 7,000 transactions did not go through, which resulted in a lot of disappointment. We anticipated this issue, and looked into alternatives to deal with this. One possible solution was removing the cap, which was not in our contributors' best interest", said Decentraland in a blog post published on its website.
The company's platform allows users to develop and buy virtual assets like land and other goods. The tokens issued during the ICO are due to become transferrable on September 15, 2017, and token holders are expected to be able to claim land "a few months from now" as reported by the company.
According to ICO Watch List, as of 2017 Etherum accounts for more than 50% of the crowdsales but is prone to a number of phishing scams, hacks and frauds, as reported by various specialized publications like Coin Telegraph.
Earlier in July, Bloomberg reported that there had been at least 90 ICOs in 2017 worth more than 1 billion, exceeding early-stage venture capital funding.
The significant activity prompted regulators, including U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, to take a closer look into the novel form of financing. Recently SEC published a report on ICOs concluding that some of the offerings might fall under US securities law.

Give. Share. Watch. Live 10-hour webcast highlights fourth annual Giving Day
For everyone who has ever wondered what Lawrence University is all about, a LIVE, 10-hour webcast Wednesday, Oct. 11 will provide an insider's look at some of the people and programs that make the university an interesting and vibrant place.
Lawrence's fourth annual Giving Day event, which will be webcast live at go.lawrence.edu/givingday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., features interviews with faculty, administrators, accomplished alumni and students, including some who currently are studying abroad. There also will be nearly a dozen live musical performances, hands-on demonstrations and maybe a surprise guest appearance or two.
Kasey Corrado, Lawrence's social media director, will be back in the hostess chair for the fourth year in a row. She'll be joined by Ken Anselment, dean of admissions and financial aid, who returns for his second stint as co-host.
"Even though this is our fourth annual Giving Day and we've gotten into a bit of a groove when it comes to the live show, there is still that undeniable excitement about what is going to take place when the red light goes on," said Corrado, who calls Giving Day "her favorite day of the year at Lawrence."
"I love meeting with guests and showcasing how they contribute to the Lawrence community in a variety of ways" she added. "We've put together another wonderful line-up of student musicians, leaders and athletes, alumni and staff. I'm looking forward to sharing their stories with our audience."
Anselment, whose lone battle scar from his initial Giving Day hosting duties — a scratchy throat from over talking — admitted that will serve as a helpful reminder to keep the focus on the guests.
"Giving Day is about letting members of the Lawrence community shine in all their multi-interested, multi-talented ways," said Anselment. "My job is to set them up and let them be at their brightest."
It's the surprises that come with hours of planned, yet improvised, programming, where some of the best moments happen, said Anselment.
Musical performances are always a staple of Lawrence's Giving Day webcast.
"I knew last year the day was going to be special during our very first segment when President Burstein picked up the pom-poms and shook them right along with the dance team. Now that's commitment," he said, adding that getting lifted by Lawrence dance instructor Margaret Paek— who is about half his size — was a lesson in grace and physics "I won't soon forget."
An eclectic cast of Lawrence "celebrities" scheduled to visit with Corrado and Anselment include:
• President Mark Burstein
• Gary Vaughan, discussing Lawrence's innovation and entrepreneurship program, including a presentation from a member of last spring's winning team at The Pitch Competition.
• Amy Ongiri from the film studies program, with staff videographer Chris Gore-Gammon, who will give a virtual reality demonstration.
• Copeland Woodruff talking opera
• Coaches from the athletic department
• Biologist Israel Del Toro discussing the Pollinator Project.
• Performances by the Faculty Brass, Cantala women's choir, an ensemble of 19 cellists, and others.
• The student bands Sol Studios and The Embers as well as singer Bernard Lilly, a student from the Academy of Music and the student duet Jerry Wang and Eva Tourangeau.
Garrett Katerzynske, Lawrence's director of video production, not only juggled most of the proverbial chain saws in lining up the guests for this year's production, he also steps into the director's chair for the first time.
"The live show is a marathon of technical demands and I'll be positioned at the epicenter of the creative storm, directing crew back stage and talent on screen," said Katerzynske. "Beautiful moments and unexpected issues can unfold simultaneously and if we're lucky, we'll spin problems into happy accidents. The cameras keep rolling and the results are always entertaining."
In scouring the campus the past several months for guests, Katerzynske said he uncovered some incredible stories and witnessed many remarkable performances.
Hands-on demonstrations always add an element of the unknown to the Giving Day webcast.
"The faculty and students on this campus surprise me every year," he said. "I can't wait to watch everything come together in the studio."
Lawrence held its first Giving Day in 2014 as a one-day-only fundraising event for alumni and friends to show their support for Lawrence, its programs and students. Since that first event, Giving Day has generated more than $3.7 million from more than 6,400 students, alumni, parents, faculty, staff, and friends of the university.
Many of the guests appearing on the webcast are grateful beneficiaries of the generosity of Giving Day donors and serve as examples of the way funding assists faculty, students and programs on campus.
As in previous years, Lawrence Giving Day 2017 has been made possible by a generous group of alumni, parents and friends who have committed to be "Game Changers," providing matching funds as motivation for others to support the college.
"Giving Day's goal isn't just to raise money, although that is an important aspect," said Kayla Schumacher, Lawrence's director of annual giving. "This is a chance for everyone in the Lawrence community to come together for 24 hours and celebrate the things they care about here.
"The entire community is encouraged to take advantage of the fantastic giving challenges on Giving Day," Schumacher added. "We hope participation in the day continues growing this year as more members of our community choose to give back. For the fourth time, Lawrence will show the world what we can accomplish when we all come together in just one day."

Give. Watch. Share. 12-hour live Giving Day show celebrates all things Lawrence
With apologies to Lorne Michaels and the late great Don Pardo, "LIVE…from the Hurvis Center…it's Giving Day."
It's the Little Apple(ton), not the Big Apple, but starting at 9 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 10, Lawrence University will stage its second annual "Giving Day," a 12-hour live extravaganza webcast worldwide, featuring a cast of thousands, or at least dozens, ranging from President Mark Burstein and Mile of Music co-founder Cory Chisel to head football coach Rob McCarthy and the Lawrence Faculty Jazz Quartet.
Giving Day co-host Kasey Corrado (right) gets ready to try out a pair of hip waders courtesy of biologist Bart De Stasio (center) as he gives her a primer on doing research out in the field during 2014's Giving Day live show..
The show will include interesting interviews and eclectic performances celebrating things happening at the college and showcasing the people and programs that make Lawrence distinctive.
Held for the first time in November, 2014, Giving Day is a special one-day opportunity for alumni and friends to show their support for Lawrence and its programs. Last year's Giving Day, with the help of "game changers" who matched donations, raised $1.1 million for the college.
Kasey Corrado, Lawrence's social media specialist, returns for her second stint as co-host of the 12-hour live show. She will be joined by senior Jon Hanrahan, a piano performance major from Johnsburg, Ill.
The webcast, available at go.lawrence.edu/givingday, will feature hourly "themes" on such topics as diversity, the arts, community service and of course, academics. From 7-8 p.m., everyone will be asked to don their thinking caps for a 60-minute trivia warm-up for Lawrence's real deal 50-hour contest coming in late January.
Last year's Giving Day was such a surprising success. Although we had planned for months, nothing really prepared us for what it turned out to be," said Corrado, who is looking forward to reprising her one-part Barbara Walters, one-part Ellen DeGeneres role of a year ago. "I'm excited to see what happens this year."
During the course of the show, Corrado will be more than just a passive host. She's planning on learning a little Mandarin, creating a work of art with the help of sculptor Rob Neilson and boning up on her chemistry knowledge with chemist Stefan Debbert.
"I love that I get to co-host this show again," said Corrado, whose first hosting stint came less than six months after getting hired at Lawrence. "As corny as it sounds, I feel like I'm getting to help make history at Lawrence."
"Compared to last year, this is a far more ambitious undertaking, so I fully expect all kinds of interesting things to go wrong. It is 12 straight hours after all."
— Rachel Crowl
Hanrahan, whose qualifications for his co-host role include four year's performing with Lawrence's improvisational troupe Optimistic Feral Children and three years as a trivia master, says his game plan is simple: Just dive in.
"I'm going to keep a curious mind turned on and gently nudge guests to the point where they have no choice but to share what they think, deep down, makes Lawrence such a weird, wonderful, impactful place," said Hanrahan, who claims he's made it through an entire trivia contest weekend without the aid of caffeine.
Hanrahan says he's excited about interacting with what he calls a line-up of "funny, smart, or strange people."
Amid all the fun and games, Hanrahan wants the viewers to also appreciate the purpose of Giving Day.
"I really want our older viewers to come away with a reminder of what a transformative place Lawrence can be and I hope that current students get a glimpse of what goes on in the buildings that they don't typically enter."
Rachel Crowl, one of the masterminds behind this year's Giving Day live show, will again handle all the off-camera chain saw juggling that goes with staging such a production.
"Compared to last year, this is a far more ambitious undertaking, so I fully expect all kinds of interesting things to go wrong. It is 12 straight hours after all," Crowl said with a laugh.
Since July, Crowl has donned her executive producer/director/writer hat, scouring the campus for "talent."
"I just used my institutional Rolodex to cajole, bribe and otherwise convince friends on the faculty and in the student body to appear on the show so we could cram as many facets of life at Lawrence as possible into 12 hours," said Crowl, who promises a few surprises along the way. "I feel it's my responsibility to put on a show that's crazy entertaining, informative and one that makes the viewers want to support the institution."
#LUGives15
According to Cara Gosse, director of annual giving, last year's Giving Day trial run "surpassed our wildest expectations."
"We were blown away by the way the college community pulled together to celebrate Lawrence, past and present," said Gosse. "This year we have more than 200 Game Changers—alumni, parents and friends — who are providing matching funds to motivate others to support our students and the school they love. We're so excited to do it all again. We want this year to be bigger, better, and bLUer."
The complete Giving Day webcast schedule can be found here.
Founded in 1847, Lawrence University uniquely integrates a college of liberal arts and sciences with a nationally recognized conservatory of music, both devoted exclusively to undergraduate education. It was selected for inclusion in the book "Colleges That Change Lives: 40 Schools That Will Change the Way You Think About College" and Fiske's Guide to Colleges 2016. Engaged learning, the development of multiple interests and community outreach are central to the Lawrence experience. Lawrence draws its 1,500 students from nearly every state and more than 50 countries.

A record breaker: Lawrence sets single-year fundraising mark
Lawrence University students may not realize it, but they have cause to celebrate. They will be the primary beneficiaries of a record-setting fundraising year by the college.
In the second year of Mark Burstein's presidency, Lawrence set a one-year fundraising record with $34.7 million for the recently completed 2014-15 fiscal year. The previous high mark, $31.4 million, was established in 2008.
As part of the overall fundraising total, the college also broke the record set last year for the Lawrence Fund, the college's annual giving program, with $3.8 million.
More than 62 percent of the record fundraising total was designated for scholarships to support Lawrence's "Full Speed to Full Need" campaign launched last year. The sole purpose of this focused effort is to provide financial aid to students of limited means. The college since has raised $22.6 million toward the full scholarship fund match.
"This record fundraising year is not only a tribute to President Burstein's clear vision for Lawrence, but also a tribute to the generosity of spirit of those who make up the Lawrence community — students, faculty, staff, administrators, alumni, friends of the college and trustees," said Susan Stillman Kane '72, chair of the Lawrence Board of Trustees.
"The central theme of Mark Burstein's vision, the value of the liberal arts and the importance of our educational mission in this rapidly changing world," Kane added, "is enhanced by his goals of making a Lawrence education affordable for all students, sustaining a balanced university budget and creating an environment where a diverse student population can thrive. This resounding affirmation of his vision and the outpouring of philanthropic support this past year is unparalleled."
Lawrence enjoyed a jump in its alumni donor participation rate (37 percent), the college's first increase since 2004. Nationally, private baccalaureate arts and science colleges have seen the average alumni donor participation rate drop every year from 2002-2014. According to the 2014 Voluntary Support of Education Survey, Lawrence's alumni donor participation rate was nearly four percent above the national average, ranking 46th nationally among 204 peer institutions.
The college also saw a small increase in its retention rate, which measures the portion of prior year alumni donors who gave again the following year. At 80.3 percent, it was Lawrence's second-highest mark since 2004. According to Target Analytics Index of Higher Education, the median retention rate for colleges and universities is 62 percent.
"This record fundraising year is not only a tribute to President Burstein's clear vision for Lawrence, but also a tribute to the generosity of spirit of those who make up the Lawrence community…the outpouring of philanthropic support this past year is unparalleled."
— Susan Stillman Kane '72, chair of the Board of Trustees
"This is tremendous news because it provides a clear demonstration of how highly engaged and supportive the alumni community and friends of Lawrence are in securing the college's future," said Charles Saunders, '84, a member of the Lawrence Board of Trustees and outgoing president of the Founders Club, a gift club which recognizes donors who contribute gifts of $1.000 or more annually to the Lawrence Fund. "This allows us to make significant progress on maintaining our affordability, which is the primary issue facing colleges and universities today."
In Forbes' 2015 Grateful Grads Index, which ranks colleges by the median amount of private donations per student over a 10-year period, Lawrence ranked 63rd nationally among all colleges and universities and was the highest ranked among Wisconsin schools.
The Lawrence Fund provides close to seven percent of the college's annual operating budget and helps bridge the gap between what students pay in tuition and actual operating costs. The Lawrence Fund, along with endowment earnings, help reduce each student's tuition by more than $10,000 per year. In addition to providing student grants and scholarships, the Lawrence Fund also supports everything from classroom resource and athletic equipment to sheet music for conservatory students.
The record-setting fundraising year included another milestone for the college, with membership in the Lawrence-Downer Legacy Circle crossing the 1,000-member threshold. At the end of the 2014-15 fiscal year, membership in the college's planned giving program jumped by nearly 11 percent over the previous year, growing to 1,016 members.
"The act of including Lawrence in one's estate plans is arguably the most profound endorsement anyone can make," said Dave Mitchell, '71, legacy gift planning co-chair of the Lawrence-Downer Legacy Circle. "The fact that membership in the Legacy Circle increased by more than 10 percent speaks volumes about Lawrence's special place in our hearts."
For the third consecutive year, the Lawrence Fund enjoyed 100 percent participation from all 32 members of the Lawrence Board of Trustees as well as all 31 members of the Lawrence University Alumni Association Board of Directors.

Funding Help: Lawrence joins Foundation Center's National Network to provide resources for area grantseekers
Lawrence University has become a Funding Information Network partner with the Foundation Center of New York and that's good news for northeast Wisconsin nonprofit organizations and other agencies seeking funding sources.
Through a collaboration with the Community Foundation for the Fox Valley Region, United Way Fox Cities and Oshkosh Area United Way, Lawrence will serve as host to a Funding Information Network location, providing free public access to a valuable collection of funding resources for a wide range of area grantseekers in the college's Seeley G. Mudd Library.
"This is the type of funding information resource that small nonprofits can really benefit from, but can rarely afford," said Jenna Stone, who leads Lawrence's grants office as the executive director of corporate, foundation and sponsored research support. "The searchable databases of grants and funders put incredibly detailed information at the fingertips of nonprofit staff, volunteers, schools, teachers and other grantseekers."
As one of only seven Funding Information Network partners in Wisconsin, Lawrence will provide under-resourced and underserved populations that need vital information and training with tools to become successful grantseekers.
Located nationally and internationally, Funding Information Network partners offer free access to the Foundation Center's extensive information on grantmakers as well guidance on how to apply for grants. The Center's core collection of resources includes "Foundation Directory Online," which profiles more than 110,000 U.S. grantmakers, "Foundation Grants to Individuals Online," "Philanthropy In/Sight," print directories and proposal writing guides.
"This is the type of funding information resource that small nonprofits can really benefit from, but can rarely afford."
— Jenna Stone
These databases and electronic and print resources are available to the general public any time Lawrence's Seeley G. Mudd Library is open.
"The Community Foundation is committed to strengthening nonprofits in our area, so we are happy to be a part of a partnership that gives them access to such a valuable resource," said Curt Detjen, Community Foundation president and CEO.
To launch the Funding Information Network site, Lawrence will hold an informal open house and a series of three free training sessions to assist area grantseekers on how to effectively use the Foundation Center resources and identify potential funders.
A community open house at Lawrence's Mudd Library will be held Monday, May 11 from 4-7 p.m. It will include tours of the library, information on library resources available to the public and an introduction to the Funding Information Network resources.
Lawrence's Seeley G. Mudd will be home to an extensive amount of free resource information on grantmakers as well guidance on how to apply for grants. The library also will host a series of training workshops for grantseekers in May (19, 28) and June (6).
On Tuesday, May 19 from 6:30-8 p.m., Lawrence will conduct the first of three "Introduction to Finding Grants" workshops in the Mudd Library. These hands-on workshops, led by members of Lawrence's own grant-writing staff, will provide an overview of the grants landscape, basic strategies for identifying potential funding sources as well as a demonstration of "Foundation Directory Online."
The workshop will be repeated Thursday, May 28 from 6:30-8 p.m. and again Saturday, June 6 from 10-11:30 a.m. Space is limited at each session and an RSVP is required to reserve a spot.
Additional information about the Funding Information Network at Lawrence, library hours, directions, upcoming events and RSVP instructions is available here.
Established in 1956, the Foundation Center is the nation's leading authority on organized philanthropy, serving grantseekers, grantmakers, researchers, policymakers, the media and the general public. Thousands of people visit the Center's web site each day and are served in its five regional learning centers and its international partnerships with hundreds of Funding Information Network locations.
Founded in 1847, Lawrence University uniquely integrates a college of liberal arts and sciences with a nationally recognized conservatory of music, both devoted exclusively to undergraduate education. It was selected for inclusion in the Fiske Guide to Colleges 2015 and the book "Colleges That Change Lives: 40 Schools That Will Change the Way You Think About College." Engaged learning, the development of multiple interests and community outreach are central to the Lawrence experience. Lawrence draws its 1,500 students from nearly every state and more than 50 countries.

Lawrence Receives Record $25 Million Gift for Scholarship Endowment
A lives changer.
That's how Lawrence University President Mark Burstein sees a $25 million anonymous gift the college has received to support student scholarships.
The $25 million gift is the largest in Lawrence history and will be used to establish an endowed scholarship to help meet the financial need for future Lawrence students. It is a dollar-for-dollar matching gift that will result in a new $50 million in additional endowment to support scholarships.
"A gift this size will truly change lives. We are humbled by the donor's generosity," said Burstein. "This gift and subsequent matching support will further enhance Lawrence's role as a catalyst for social mobility.
"The magnitude of a $25 million gift is really immeasurable, but we know it will impact generations of students from across the country and around the world," Burstein added. "The students who benefit from this gift will go on to make a difference in their home communities. That will be the ultimate dividend of this gift."
"Few moments happen in the more than 160-year history of an institution like Lawrence that are truly transformative. This is one of them," said Terry Franke, a 1968 Lawrence graduate and current chair of the college's Board of Trustees. "A boost of $50 million in our endowment guarantees that Lawrence remains affordable for generations to come. I'm sure it will excite our alumni as much as it does me."
Based on the average financial aid package for the 2014-15 academic year, the endowment draw from this gift will allow Lawrence to offer financial aid awards that meet the full institutionally demonstrated financial need of at least 50 students each year in perpetuity.
"The magnitude of a $25 million gift is really immeasurable, but we know it will
impact generations of students from across the country and around the world."
— President Mark Burstein
Since becoming Lawrence's 16th president in July 2013, Burstein has made affordability a central institutional priority.
"We fully realize college costs can be a financial burden, which is why we are so focused on scholarship support," said Burstein. "With this gift, along with an institutional commitment to contain expenses and manage tuition growth, we aim to help students from all backgrounds attend Lawrence and reap the benefits of a challenging and rigorous education."
The importance of a college degree in improving a person's social mobility was underscored in a 2008 Brookings Institution report, "Getting Ahead or Losing Ground: Economic Mobility in America."
According to the report's authors, when children born into the bottom fifth of the United States of the income distribution earn a college degree, their chances of making it to the top fifth of income earners nearly quadruple, and their chances of escaping the bottom income quintile increase by more than 50 percent. While half of all people from high-income families have a bachelor's degree by age 25, only 1 in 10 people from low-income families do.
The record-setting gift comes on the heels of other positive financial news for Lawrence. The college is coming off its best year ever for gifts to its annual giving program — the Lawrence Fund — with an institutional record $3.7 million raised during the 2013-14 fiscal year.
The Lawrence Fund provides nearly 10 percent of the college's annual operating budget. It helps bridge the gap between what students pay in tuition and actual operating costs and in conjunction with endowment earnings, helps reduce each student's tuition by more than $10,000 per year.
In July, Lawrence announced a $2.5 million gift to expand its current teacher education program to include elementary teacher education certification beginning in the fall of 2015.
Earlier this year, Lawrence received a $2.1 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education's Title III SIP program for a comprehensive program designed to increase the graduation rate of at-risk students.
"Collectively these gifts and grants have fueled considerable institutional momentum that will help our students have a positive, productive experience while they're here and prepare them to succeed in a rapidly changing world," Burstein said.
• Lawrence's previous largest gift was $16 million in 2006 for the Warch Campus Center.
• For the 2014-15 academic year, Lawrence provided $33.4 million in institutional financial aid.
• Ninety-six percent of Lawrence students are receiving need and/or merit based financial aid for the 2014-15 academic year.
• The average need-based student financial aid package for the current school year is $35,600.
• For the current school year, 21 percent of Lawrence students are receiving federal Pell Grants, which are given to undergraduates from low-income families with the highest need.
• As for June 30, 2014, Lawrence's endowment was nearly $250 million and experienced a 16.2 percent investment return over the fiscal year.

Lawrence Fund Enjoys Record-Breaking Year
Lawrence University alumni and friends rewarded first-year President Mark Burstein with a special present — a record-setting fundraising total.
The Lawrence Fund provides essential support for virtually all aspects of a student's education, including scientific equipment such as this re-circulating flume for the geology department.
But the real beneficiaries are Lawrence's students.
For the recently completed 2013-14 fiscal year, the college raised an institutional record $3.7 million for the Lawrence Fund, breaking the previous mark of $3,647,259 set in 2008-09.
The Lawrence Fund, the college's annual giving program, provides close to 10 percent of the annual operating budget and helps bridge the gap between what students pay in tuition and actual operating costs. The Lawrence Fund and endowment earnings help reduce each student's tuition by more than $10,000 per year, provide much-needed support for everything from scholarships and classroom resources to athletic equipment and sheet music for conservatory students.
Lawrence's overall fundraising for the 2013-14 fiscal year totaled $17,681,384, the sixth-most in school history.
"This past fiscal year's record-setting Lawrence Fund total is testament to our alumni's loyal support of the college's mission. I'm humbled by the generosity of the 10,308 individual donors who gave to Lawrence last year," said Burstein, who marked the end of his inaugural year as president June 30. Earlier this year, Forbes ranked Lawrence highest of any college or university in Wisconsin on its 2014 Grateful Grads Index.
Helping the Lawrence Fund establish an institutional all-time high was a record-setting gift of $804,817 by members of the Class of 1964, the most ever by a 50th reunion class.
Lawrence also added 90 new members in the past fiscal year to its Legacy Circle, the college's planned giving program. It was the most new members in a single year since 2000 and raised the program's total to a record 907 members.
"Making Lawrence more affordable is among our highest priorities," said Burstein. "Support for the Lawrence Fund assures students and families from all incomes that a Lawrence education remains accessible at a time when they have less resources to support their children in college. No other form of giving has a more direct and meaningful impact on our students."
For the second year in a row, the Lawrence Fund enjoyed 100 percent participation from all 30 members of the Lawrence Board of Trustees as well as all 35 members of the Lawrence University Alumni Association Board of Directors. Collectively, they contributed a total of $587,986 — nearly 16 percent — to the fund's overall total.
Among Lawrence's 20,500 alumni, nearly 36 percent contributed to Lawrence's overall fundraising efforts in the past fiscal year. According to the New York City-based Council for Aid to Education's most recent Voluntary Support of Education Report, private baccalaureate institutions averaged 20.1 percent alumni participation in 2012-13 (the most recent year for which figures are available.)

$250,000 Gift from Sentry Insurance Honors Retiring Chair, Lawrence Alumnus Dale Schuh '70
Lawrence University has received a $250,000 gift from the Sentry Insurance Foundation in honor of retiring Sentry Chairman Dale Schuh's leadership and more than 40-year career with the company.
Dale Schuh '70
A 1970 Lawrence graduate who earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics, Schuh also has served on the college's Board of Trustees since 2008. The $250,000 gift will be used to continue Schuh's commitment to Lawrence students. He and his wife, Annette, endowed a scholarship at Lawrence in 2009 that assists students who are the first in their families to attend college.
"As a first generation college student, I have a fond spot in my heart for Lawrence University," Schuh said.
Since joining the Board of Trustees, Schuh has served on numerous committees, including recruitment and retention, executive committee and finance committee, which he has chaired since 2011. He also has been active as an admissions volunteer. From 2010-2012, Schuh served as president of Lawrence's Founders Club, providing extraordinarily important leadership to the college's most generous donors.
Most recently, Schuh served as the chair of a 15-person presidential search committee that led to the selection of Mark Burstein, executive vice president at Princeton University, as Lawrence's 16th president.
"Dale Schuh's leadership of the Presidential Search Committee was my first experience of how dedicated Lawrence alumni are to their alma mater. His enthusiasm for Lawrence continues to be contagious," said Burstein, who took office July 1. "I thank Sentry for honoring Dale's extraordinary career in this way. Lawrence, and more importantly, our students, will benefit significantly from their generosity."
Schuh joined Sentry as an actuarial intern while still a student at Lawrence. He became a full-time employee in January, 1972 and spent his entire career with the company. Within eight years of joining Sentry, Schuh was named vice president of corporate planning. He also held the roles of vice president actuarial and control and senior vice president of marketing. Schuh was named president and chief operating officer in 1996 and two years later was elected chief executive officer and chairman of the board of directors.
"During Dale's period as a senior executive, he has either been in the engine room or directly at the helm during some of the most pivotal moments in Sentry's history," said Peter McPartland, Sentry president and CEO. "When I began working with Dale, one of the first things I noticed was his intelligence, total understanding of how the insurance business works and his grasp on all aspects of Sentry. He never stopped thinking about Sentry and how to make Sentry better."
Under Schuh's leadership, Sentry's financial strength and position significantly improved. It now holds an A+ financial rating from AM Best Company.
"The past dozen years have slipped by quickly," said Schuh. "I am proud to have been with the company through thick and thin. I feel very confident about this company's future."
The gift to Lawrence was one of two the foundation made in Schuh's honor. A $50,000 contribution was also presented to United Way of Portage County to kick off the organization's 2013 campaign.
Founded in 1847, Lawrence University uniquely integrates a college of liberal arts and sciences with a nationally recognized conservatory of music, both devoted exclusively to undergraduate education.

Built on the northern foothills of Troodos, the village uniquely combines coastal front with hillsides, and its surroundings of both beach and mountains – coupled with the fresh fish that comes from the fishing shelter of the village – make it a popular holiday resort.
The hills of the village are covered by a green veil deriving from the colour of the pines and mingling with the plantations of the plain, the peach and the lemon trees, until they reach the crystal beach with the small sandy bays. The beach is approximately 3 km long and it constitutes an ideal holiday destination. The most well-known beaches of Pyrgos are: "The Omega", "Apothikes" and "Kryoneri". The naming of the first beach is linked to the shape of the Greek letter Ω (Omega) which is formed as the beach stretches towards the sea. The second beach, known as "Apothikes", owes its naming to a 1920 building which was used, as of 1927, as a warehouse (Apothiki in Greek) where farming products were stored. The last beach, "Kryoneri" (Coldwater), is linked to the artesian water which flows by the area and falls into the sea.


Moret, B. M. E. ; Shapiro, H. D.
The last twenty years have seen enormous progress in the design of algorithms, but little of it has been put into practice. Because many recently developed algorithms are hard to characterize theoretically and have large running_time coefficients, the gap between theory and practice has widened over these years. Experimentation is indispensable in the assessment of heuristics for hard problems, in the characterization of asymptotic behavior of complex algorithms, and in the comparison of competing designs for tractable problems. Implementation, although perhaps not rigorous experimentation, was characteristic of early work in algorithms and data structures. Donald Knuth has throughout insisted on testing every algorithm and conducting analyses that can predict behavior on actual data, more recently, Jon Bentley has vividly illustrated the difficulty of implementation and the value of testing. Numerical analysts have long understood the need for standardized test suites to ensure robustness, precision and efficiency of numerical libraries. It is only recently, however, that the algorithms community has shown signs of returning to implementation and testing as an integral part of algorithm development. The emerging disciplines of experimental algorithmics and algorithm engineering have revived and are extending many of the approaches used by computing pioneers such as Floyd and Knuth and are placing on a formal basis many of Bentley's observations. We reflect on these issues, looking back at the last thirty years of algorithm development and forward to new challenges: designing cache_aware algorithms, algorithms for mixed models of computation, algorithms for external memory, and algorithms for scientific research.

Home » Loudon Wainwright III
Posted inArts & Culture
by John Corbett March 7, 1996 August 20, 2021
With nothing but an acoustic guitar and a lyric, Loudon Wainwright III can pull off things more powerful than most Hollywood narratives. That said, his albums have occasionally veered into the overwrought; his 25-year recording career has taken him through many labels and many phases, from his best-known single "Dead Skunk" (actually one of his weaker, more gimmicky songs) and thin LPs T Shirt and Final Exam (both on Arista) to the classic gender-gap anthem "Whatever Happened to Us," the stinging vitriol of "Revenge," such hilarious one-liners as "I Eat Out" and "Kings and Queens," and a few surprisingly affecting tearjerkers. But where the overproduction gremlin sometimes overtakes him in the studio, in concert Wainwright is an absolute marvel. His live recordings, A Live One (Rounder) and one brilliant side of Unrequited (Columbia), remain the indispensable part of his discography. Wainwright's newest studio project, Grown Man (Charisma), is thoroughly enjoyable, however, and its contrivances (a song sung in the shower, a duet with one of his daughters concerning his flawed fatherhood) are more than matched by his sharp wit and linguistic ingenuity. Over the years, he's actively cultivated a rakish, chauvinistic image, a perception he doesn't refute with a song like "IWIWAL (I Wish I Was a Lesbian)." But he's also played the sensitive guy, singing confessional songs about his relationships with women, his children, society, and–most often–himself. Whenever this psychoanalysis seems self-serving or indulgent, it's undercut with a dazzling sense of humor, sincerity, and real insight. And Wainwright slyly tackles lighter topics: "Cobwebs," for instance, is a breezy three-minute Gilberto Gil-style diatribe against the misuse of the word "like" ("Yeah it mighta started back with Jack Kerouac / Probably more than likely it was Maynard G. Krebs / It's the four-letter word that used to mean 'as if' / And now the meaning's covered in cobwebs"). If you're lucky maybe Loudo will indulge you with one of the live specialties he's never laid on wax–holler out for "Surfer Queen" and see what you get. Saturday, 8 and 10:30 PM, and Sunday, 7 PM, Schubas, 3159 N. Southport; 525-2508. JOHN CORBETT

The Lucketts School in Lucketts, Virginia was built in 1913.  It is a wood-frame schoolhouse with elements of Colonial Revival and Craftsman style.  It was originally known as Lucketts High School and was expanded in 1919 with additional classrooms and in 1929 with a small auditorium. It was one of the first multi-room schools in Loudoun County, and remains one of the best-preserved early 20th century schools in the county. The last high school students graduated from Lucketts in 1938, but the school was used as an elementary school until 1972 when a new Lucketts Elementary School was built on an adjoining site. Education still continues here in the form of certified child care offered to residents of Loudoun County.

In an effort to preserve the old school for community use the first Lucketts Fair was held in 1972, a tradition which continued until 2018 as a means of financing the maintenance of the building.  It is now operated as the Lucketts Community Center by the Loudoun County Department of Parks and Recreation.

Lucketts Bluegrass
The Lucketts Community Center is the home of the Lucketts Bluegrass concert series.  The first concert was held on January 12, 1974, and the series has been running continuously .  Concerts are  held every other Saturday night from October through April.  For 33 years, the  series was run by an informal group of volunteers, in partnership with the Lucketts Community Center Advisory Board and the community center staff. In 2007, the Lucketts Bluegrass Foundation was formed to administer the bluegrass program in partnership with the community center.  Over the years, many well known bluegrass acts have performed in the series, including the Johnson Mountain Boys, whose 1989 album "At The Old Schoolhouse" was recorded there in on February 20, 1988.

Jim Jefferies' New Stand-Up Special to Premiere Next Month on Netflix (EXCLUSIVE)
Jim Jefferies is back on Netflix next month with his fifth stand-up special for the streamer, "High N' Dry." The special premieres globally on Netflix on February 14, just in time for Valentine's Day. The stand-up follows previous specials "Jim Jefferies: Bare" (2014), "Jim Jefferies: Freedumb" (2016), "Jim Jefferies: This Is Me Now" (2018) and "Jim Jefferies: Intolerant" (2020). Scott Zabielski directed the new special.
"High N' Dry" is actually Jefferies' tenth TV standup special all together, which goes back to "Contraband" in 2008. According to the logline, "In the special, newly married and loving life with his wife and kids, Jefferies sounds off on the laziness of koala bears, the injustices of male pattern baldness and the reason why he'll never drink again."
Jefferies, Tim Sarkes, Alex Murray, Brian Volk-Weiss and Cisco Henson are executive producers of "High N' Dry."
Jefferies is currently on the road for his 2023 "Give'em What They Want Tour." Jefferies is also the host of the podcast "I Don't Know About That with Jim Jefferies."
Jefferies was named stand-up comedian of the year at the Just for Laughs festival in 2019. His credits include the FX series "Legit," which he wrote, executive produced and starred in, as well as Comedy Central's "The Jim Jefferies Show," which ran for three seasons from 2017 to 2019. Jefferies also starred in the Australian film "Me and My Mates vs the Zombie Apocalypse." He was also seen in "History of Swear Words" in 2021, as well as in episodes of "The Librarians" and "Bad Judge."
