This book deals with the so-called particle verbs (or separable verbs) in German. It shows that particle verbs cannot be clearly distinguished from similar constructions (like e.g. resultative constructions) by discussing the linguistic tests that have been used in the literature. It is argued that those constructions that are commonly called particle verbs are phrasal constructions (of various sorts) instead of words. The only difference between particle verbs and similar constructions is non-transparency or listedness. It is shown that much of the behavior of particle verbs that is commonly claimed to be due to structural facts (topicalization of the particle, question-answer sequences etc.) is really due to semantic factors (like non-transparency). Many of the word formation facts cannot be explained by structural differences but seem to be influenced by the listed/unlisted distinction as well.

Center for Educational Partnerships Awarded Nearly $600K for Violence Prevention
By Taylor Ha on January 15, 2021 Education and Social Services, Graduate School of Education
Over the next three years, Fordham's Center for Educational Partnerships will train students and staff at middle and high schools in the Bronx to prevent student violence, thanks to a federal grant of more than half a million dollars.
"Now with the coronavirus, there's just so much more pressure on everyone," said Anita Vazquez Batisti, Ph.D., founding and executive director of the Center for Educational Partnerships, part of Fordham's Graduate School of Education, which applied for the grant this past summer. "A lot of adolescent children are at their tipping point, and they need even more help."
New York City schools have historically struggled to prevent in-person and online bullying. This past December, Mayor Bill de Blasio unveiled a mental health plan that aims to bolster social, emotional, and academic support for students citywide this fall. This $588,233 grant from the U.S. Department of Justice, received by Fordham in October, will enhance the mayor's goal, said Batisti.
"Our focus is on the psychological and environmental triggers, which often result in at-risk adolescents engaging in antisocial behaviors," Batisti explained. "We feel that the people working with the kids need to identify these triggers so things can be avoided and deescalated before they reach a very serious situation."
The Center for Educational Partnerships plans on training teachers, students, guidance counselors, principals, and safety officers on how to prevent and reduce student violence against others and themselves through school-specific tactics, including anti-bullying training and strategies for mental health crises. The training program will also host workshops aimed to help the school community better understand negative emotions, recognize trauma and grief in students, and involve parents and caregivers in restorative justice practices.
The training program will be conducted by mental health consultants and faculty from Fordham, including social workers and psychologists. They will operate virtually and transition to on-site training when it is safe to do so.
The center will work closely with Meisha Ross Porter, the executive superintendent for the entire Bronx borough and doctoral student at the Graduate School of Education, to select eight schools each year in the borough that would benefit most from anti-violence training, for a total of 24 schools at the end of the grant-funding period in 2023.
School-Specific Strategies
Before training begins, the center plans on conducting an outside assessment with school faculty and staff and examining each school's unique challenges, past training experiences, and current mental health support systems. In a few weeks, the center's new project coordinator will form a small advisory group with the schools from the first cohort of eight and begin virtual training.
"The committee will be formed with members from the learning community and the staff who serve the children so that needs are met at a very granular level," said project coordinator Kathleen Walsh, Ed.D., GSE '77, who was previously a school superintendent on Long Island and founding principal of a high-needs school in Brooklyn. "The needs are focused on the realities of each school."
De-Escalation Strategies for the Future
At the end of each training period, the center will evaluate the success of the program by analyzing anecdotal feedback and school incident reports. The center, in collaboration with the Bronx superintendent's office, will later create a custom list of de-escalation strategies and recommendations for each school.
Students and staff from eight Bronx schools will be trained by the end of September 2021, and the second cohort of schools will start training in October.
Walsh said she hopes the program will reduce negative mentalities toward struggling students and provide much-needed support for school personnel, safety officers, and parents.
"There is respect that we have to grow, earn, and work with," Walsh said. "But when you believe in students and bring good people together, I know it works."

So Petersham is at Selfridges. Gardens and outdoor lifestyle on Oxford Street London.
Why aint there a flagship garden lifestyle centre in central London? Why has National Geographic got a spot on Regent Street and not a garden centre.
Its going to happen soon enough, me thinks, as I cruise around London to see how Selfridges, Anthroloplogie and Liberty address their visual merchandising this xmas season.
Perhsam Nurseries is opening up with Selfridges.
Gardens have moved an inch or two.
Its all about context. Duchamp was carrying on about that.
Apply the most ordinary item into Selfridges and allure takes hold.
But remember place a very interesting item into the bowels of a garden centre and a functional monotony can take hold. Either or. I love it all.

Located in Shippan, Brennan's is nestled away in an otherwise quiet, residential neighborhood. With a block party mentality, Brennan's has become an iconic hangout after Fourth of July fireworks (save for 2007) and truly embraces a small town relationship with The City that Works year round.
Establishment. Brennan's has all the makings of a neighborhood bar, from its secluded location to its old-fashioned charm and welcoming atmosphere equipped with TVs, darts, and plenty of regulars. Brennan's normally offers both indoor and outdoor seating, however, the smallish dining room was far from sufficient for our large party of six and while the patio was very comfortable, it still felt like an afterthought, furnished with cheap nesting PVC tables and chairs. Nonetheless, the service was as personable as one would expect of such an intimate locale, albeit a bit on the inattentive side at times. Brennan's menu is severely limited to regular bar fare including wings, burgers, salads, sandwiches, personal pizzas and little else.
Pizza. Having sampled many bar pies by now, we found this pizza particularly refreshing as it actually tasted good and might be the first grilled pie we've tried. Brennan's crust was thin and chewy, with a uniquely strong flavor imparted by the grill. This paired very, very well with the cheese, which was phenomenally gooey and absolutely delicious. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for the sauce, which was proportioned so sparingly that we could barely taste it, let alone rate it. The grill also afforded this pizza a unique consistency: charred and cracker-like on the bottom with an otherwise light, airy consistency throughout. Unique wasn't necessarily better, as it seemed to detract from the overall quality of this pie. Our toppings of "choice," bacon and hamburger, weren't bad, but they certainly weren't anything special (Brennan's ran out of our actual choice toppings, sausage and pepperoni). Overall, we were impressed with this pizza despite its shortcomings and damning "bar pie" identity.
The bottom line. While not the easiest restaurant to find, Brennan's is a homey (albeit cramped) neighborhood pub with one of the best bar pies in town.
Large Cheese: $6.00 (10")
2009 – Surprisingly Good

These beautiful streetscapes complete my selection of pictures from the legacy of approximately one thousand photographs by Tony Hall held in the archive at the Bishopsgate Institute.
One of the most evocative sets yet, to me (my own childhood was entirely monochrome, the landscape car-less). I could happily 'do up' the corner house in Stepney Green and spend the rest of my life there.
And the two recumbent gentlemen outside the library would make a wonderful poster.
Tony's sensitively composed images reveal a deep passion for the East End. He was a brilliant photographer who captured the essence of working class life. Thanks to Libby I have a wonderful print he made in support of the miners strike. I remember the Roman Road branch library; no doubt if Tony was alive he would be angry at the way libraries are being closed every month in the UK. I look forward to seeing more from Tony's archive. Many thanks to TGA for publishing these iconic photographs.
Tony's photos capture their time so well – I can look at them again and again.
in Enfield,the first for years.
said it sounds just like the old days.
Lets hope its a sign of times.
A great selection. I also love the gentleman asleep in front of the library and the wee boy in the balaclava.
Wonderful London is always surprising. I have to go there again in near future!
What a splendid set of photos. Real classics. It made me feel very home sick!
Well, this gentleman may not have called himself a photographer but he was obviously a modest man as these photos are brilliant, among the best that I have ever seen, just look at the subjects and the composition, he was a natural. Congratulations on your late husband's work Libby Hall, you must be very proud.
Wonderful photos, so spare and direct. Second to last picture must be Hackney Road looking west with Ye Old Axe in the background.


Aurelia: Adama, what will be the most important role of the Inner Earth beings during the coming Earth changes from 2006 to 2008?
Understand that we all work together to assist this planet and humanity to move into a dimension of Love and Light through the Ascension process where Life, as you know it, will never be the same again for anyone living on the surface. No one's role is more important than any other. All the work we do together inside the Earth in preparation for this planet to be raised into the Light is all part of a huge plan, designed by Prime Creator Himself. Each one of us holds a specific piece of this gigantic and sacred work. We all assist each other with what we have volunteered to do, and what needs to be done to accomplish the task of elevating this planet with Her humanity. We work in close cooperation with the Galactic Federation and we take our assignments from them.
Among other things, we are very busy preparing the fifth dimensional Cities of Light to eventually descend over the major cities of this planet, and merge with the people there. Those majestic cities will lower their frequencies for all to see and enjoy only when those living "below" will begin to match the consciousness and the frequency of those living "above". Those cities already exist and millions of light beings live there permanently; but sectors of it need to be adapted for your forthcoming.
As we were looked upon as "The new kids on the block" inside our mountain when we first moved beneath Mount Shasta thousands of years ago, you will also be considered and mentored as "The new kids on the block" as you begin spending periods of time in those wondrous Cities of Light for your learning and advancement. Nevertheless, this will not happen for a few more years of your time. You all have more spiritual maturity to develop before you will be invited to step in. Telos is just one of many of those wondrous Cities of Light hovering above you in your skies, yet invisible to your level of spiritual maturity. We all work and visit each other as one big family in the Oneness of Life.
At the time of the final stages of planetary Ascension or soon after, several of those cities will lower their magnificence and splendor closer to the surface for the blessing and enjoyment of those who have weeded the garden of their consciousness and have made themselves ready to receive such a blessing. The first City of Light that is scheduled to manifest in a more tangible way to surface dwellers is the wondrous Crystal City of the Seven Rays, situated above Mount Shasta.
When this manifest in your world, it will be a time of magic and great rejoicing for those who will be admitted. Only those who have attained the required level of consciousness and passed the initiations of the "codes of entry" will be able to come in and out at will, and enjoy their new privilege. The rest of the people will know about it, but they will not see it, and will not be able to enter in until they have also met the spiritual requirements for admission.
We are also engaged in assisting very closely every one of you who have applied to receive the initiations for Ascension by 2012. On the inner plane, each candidate for Ascension has been assigned a specific team of guides who will assist and coach you in your preparation for that great moment. The people of the Inner Earth are very involved with this kind of coaching, as we feel so very close to you, and we love you so very much for your courage and dedication. As you raise your level of Love and Light quotient and maintain it, we light up and activate more of your strands of DNA to assist the preparation of your body for "Immortality".
Several thousand years ago, once we finally became fully established in our new city of Telos, we volunteered to hold and maintain the Flame of Ascension on behalf of humanity, while the surface populations were busy warring against each other, forgetting their origin in the One Heart of Love of the same Creator.
We have been holding and nurturing that flame for more than eight thousand years on your behalf, in association with the Ascension Brotherhood of Light in the great Pyramid of Egypt. We are also prepared to continue the nurturing of that Flame with our love, on your behalf, until the day comes that the consciousness of the surface populations has gained the level of spiritual maturity to do this for themselves. It has been our service to you while we have been "underground". Without anyone to perform this service on your behalf for so very long, it is most likely that your entire civilization might not have been permitted by the wholly Father of All to continue its existence, and to receive the Grace and Compassion that is bestowed upon all of you and your planet at this time of great planetary transformation.
With deep gratitude and humility, each day, we return back to the Creator of All, that Love that is bestowed upon our planet through His Heart. It is a requirement, beloved ones, that a planet and the people living on it return daily, as a token of gratitude, a portion of the Love and Energy back to the Creator. For this service, we have received the humorous nickname "The Aces in the Hole".
It is also for that reason that now in Telos, we are holding a very large responsibility to assist humanity to prepare for this wondrous moment of graduation. Nearly everyone in Telos and in the other inner earth cities are assisting in one way or the other. As much as we have many other roles to fulfill, and we also wear many hats in assisting the frequency of this planet, supporting, coaching each candidate who will qualify for Ascension by 2012 is our greatest role.
We have been actively involved in this work in the last 20 to 30 years. We are involved with this work now in a greater way than ever before, as so many more of you are now coming to the inner cities of light, in your etheric body at night, to receive tutoring and initiations. It shall continue for the next 100 to 200 years or longer. Each day, we see new faces that are seeking help. Each time a new soul shows up, we all rejoice.
We have the necessary number of staff and volunteers for the task. Remember, there are many more of us than there are of you. We perceive that by 2008, a great explosion in consciousness will take place among humanity. For this, we are preparing our classrooms to receive the millions of souls, versus the thousands who come at this time. We are training now a great number of volunteers from all over the galaxy and beyond to coach all of you when the masses wake-up. Volunteers are coming forth from almost everywhere from this universe and quite a few from other universes. What a joy for us to be hosting such sacred gatherings!
Aurelia: Which civilizations are you working with most closely, especially with other inner Earth civilizations or Star brothers?
We work closely with all civilizations of the Earth's interior. The city of Agartha can be considered a major headquarter for Galactic and Intergalactic communications and decisions. They especially supervise the Agartha network within the Earth interior, which comprises over 144 Cities of Light. All those cities come under the jurisdiction of Agartha, whose field of action is more directed with the ascended civilizations. This also includes our city of Telos, as we are part of that great network. A long time ago, we surpassed very quickly, and in a much greater measure, all expectation they had about our coming underground prior the destruction of our continent.
We work also very closely with Shamballa, the city of the Great Masters and Sages. Agartha is more involved with Galactic and Intergalactic matters. Shamballa acts more as headquarter and meeting place for planetary matters and decisions. It is in Shamballa that this Earth planetary Logo, Sanat Kumara from Venus, has established his headquarter several million years ago. Shamballa has been the seat of direction, of decisions and meeting place for the whole of this planetary hierarchy for several million years. When there are great gatherings for important planetary matters, it is usually in Shamballa that they take place. The Earth, our planetary Goddess, is usually present at those meetings, especially with all matters pertaining to her safety, comfort and the supervision of the evolution of the surface populations.
We also work very closely with the Star brothers of the Pleiades, Arcturus, Andromada, Alpha Centauri, Sirius, Venus, Cassiopeia and many others.
In what area will humanity be mostly touched?
In the years to come, what will affect humanity the most is when the Earth, the Mother and Sentience of this planet, will put and end to the pumping of Her blood to accommodate your lavish and extravagant means of transportation technology. In spite of our repeated requests and warnings to your leaders to allow free energy technology to be established, the leadership of this planet has consistently refused to use other more evolved and effective technologies to create low cost, clean and harmonious means of transportation. Soon, my friends, the planet will put the cap on the oil wells and you will be quickly without the substance that fuels your various vehicles and means of transportation. Prepare yourself to face this dilemma. As much as it will bring temporary confusion in your world, it will also eventually bring a great liberation. Your lives have come to depend totally on a resource that is primitive and no longer appropriate. Free energy is the clean and free technology of enlightened and evolved societies.
The Oil Refineries will be back in the ground where they belong.
You will be riding or driving horses or bicycles for a while. When all of you will be grounded without transportation, what will you do? You will walk more and you will be more healthy and in better physical condition. You will use your creativity to assist each other with your needs, and you will start creating the spirit of community. You will have more time to spend with each other, and it will become easier to open your heart to those who live around you. You will live your life in ways that support your spiritual evolution. You will gain much vitality and you will become much happier.
This, my friend, will create a great leap in your consciousness and a great opportunity to really look at where you put your real values for love, friendship, brotherhood, abundance and the true pursuit of happiness. When you will be faced without many of the so called luxuries you have become accustomed to, you will create together something much better and you will be so much happier for it. You will rediscover the "Real Life" and how to sustain yourself abundantly in it.
You will begin taking time to smell the roses as you walk by, and communicating with the intelligence of other kingdoms around you that you have conveniently ignored so far. You will start acquiring a taste for a life that is more "Real" in the values of your divine nature. You will create bonds of love and friendship with people that you never knew could bring so much satisfaction to your lives. You will then become interested and willing to set aside all the old outmoded ways of living, and you will begin creating your own Heaven on Earth.
And then, my friends, after a little while, your leadership will finally allow the establishment of "free and clean energy" on your planet. Much of this technology is already known and almost ready to be made available to you.
Those who control the oil also control the rest of the economy of the planet; they have no interest in allowing enlightened changes. When your legs, bicycles, horses and buggies will become for a little while the only means of transportation, the "toys of the new world" the new enlightened technology will be allowed to be implemented. It will come at a time when you have gained much appreciation for it, and have attained enough spiritual maturity to use it properly.
In Telos, we have also wondrous technology that we are eager to share with you, which will ease the workings of your daily lives.
If you read the right newspapers, you will notice that the Earth has already begun to withdraw and limit the amount of oil that is being taken out of Her body daily. But you have not been informed of this. Have you? Certainly not by your leaders! Because their interest is to raise the price of gas in order to swell their own pocketbook. In 2004 and 2005, it has become more obvious. In 2006 and 2007, it will become much more obvious.
Expect that in 2007, the price of gas will continue to rise; it will become more limited. Eventually, there will be no more. By the end of year 2008, and perhaps a bit sooner, many of you will be already walking wherever you want to go, taking time to smell the roses and pet the dogs and cats you encounter along the way.
Don't worry! With a little bit of patience and surrender, you will discover that you will not be loosing anything of much value. You will realize that you have everything to gain from this. You have to be willing to let go of the old in order to make place for the new! This planet simply cannot ascend to the Realms of Light by 2012, while supporting a surface humanity that is still siphoning Her blood. She has allowed as much as she could, but now, She needs the rest of what is left in order to renew and transform Herself.
At this time, your leaders are not showing any sign of willingness to stop using the "blood of their Mother" for means of transportation and other energy needs. You are lavishly consuming, and without concern of consequences, the blood of the One that is supplying your platform of evolution. You are using daily huge amounts of resources that belong, "within the Earth". This can no longer continue, and you all know this.
Aurelia: After the time of 2012, will the inner Earth cities continue to evolve inside the planet or will you come out to set your abodes on the surface of this planet again?
After the Earth's Ascension in 2012, we will continue to live inside the Earth for quite some time to come. Some of our people will come out to assist you, and they may establish temporary housing for their needs. They will likely be coming in and out very frequently, as they can do this at will quite easily and rapidly, but they will also maintain their home inside the Earth. Many of us that you know will make ourselves visible and accessible to all those of you who are ready, to give you more direct teachings and allow you to benefit from the radiance of our Love and Harmony.
For your information, there are several hundred Telosians and beings from other inner Earth cities that have come out to the surface and are already living among you, we have mentioned this before. They are doing wonderful work in all walks of life and all departments of your societies. They are preparing the way to bring you greater assistance when you are ready. They have changed their appearance to look more like everyone else on the surface, they have lowered their height and they now dress the way you do. Actually, they do not look now any different than most of you.
Most of them are holding positions of responsibilities in many places, but all of them are working "incognito". This means that none of them are allowed to identify themselves, and for obvious reasons. Since our people would never consider "disobeying" any orders from hierarchy, none of them have made their identity known to any of you. Though it is possible that you may have met some of them at some point, you would not know who they truly are. In this manner, our emergence among you has already begun, but not in the ways you are expecting it. Some of the information, but not all of it, you have received about our emergence among you has not been well understood. There is also other information that was not disclosed properly.
Of course, there will be those from the Earth interior that will come out to be among you by 2012 and even before that will be allowed to disclose their identity to certain persons or to small groups. But it will happen only with those who have attained a certain level love and harmony in their consciousness.
We are not planning to be moving permanently on the surface, as a way of life, for a very long time, if ever. At best, we will come and go quite often, perhaps creating temporary homes when we need it. We are planning to maintain our life style and our homes inside the Earth for at least the next fifty years or longer. Much will depend of the progress that humanity will make. Our cities of Light will continue to be our main focus of habitation, though in time, we may consider having permanent habitations in both places.
With our sponsorship, it will be more likely those who will ascend from your plane who will be the ones that will be coming in and out of the mountain or from other cities to assist the rest of humanity. They will maintain a home on the surface for convenience and they will also enjoy a home in the light realm. This is the privilege that will be granted to those who will ascend first and have contracted with the spiritual hierarchy of this planet to remain on the surface to assist the rest of humanity until "all" are ascended in the Light and Free. The full Ascension of the planet, until Her ultimate destiny, is at least 1,000 year plan. Year 2012 is just the beginning of the most wondrous and exciting adventure that has ever taken place on a planet that has known so much darkness pain and violence. You have much to look forward to in the years and decades to come. Be willing to let go of the old to embrace the new.
When we come, we are not planning to take over your responsibilities. We will come as guides and teachers, as mentors to assist all of you to recreate the world you have been dreaming about.
If you choose to remain inside, I imagine that we will have an easy access to the cities of the earth's interior.
Eventually yes, and for sure for those who have qualified for full Ascension. During the year 2007 and 2008 and until 2012, there will be some invitations for a certain number of surface people to come to Telos and receive direct teachings and instructions from us. This will be the first place people will come to before the other cities will be open to them. Consider Telos to be an entry way, a "gate" to receive your cosmic passport to eventually be admitted elsewhere. Before you attain your personal Ascension, for those who will come here from the surface, it will be "by invitation" only. This applies before and after 2012.
No one will be invited here or in any other place unless they are an initiate of the seventh degree on the path of discipleship for Ascension. That is the level of advancement you will need to attain in order to receive a personal invitation to come to any City of Light, and to be able to withstand and maintain in your consciousness this level of frequency while you are here.
If you wish to be "on the list", you know what to do. In our third book of the Telos series, "Protocols of Fifth Dimension", it is all explained very well and clearly. Our channel had to reach that level within her consciousness in order to be able to write about this. We cannot say that this was an easy task for her.
We suggest that you study this material very thoroughly until you fully understand it, and implement those teachings in your own life, diligently and consistently, until you have "become" this vibration of unconditional love, harmony and acceptance.
If you are thinking in terms of an easy access to the cities of the Earth's Interior or any other Cities of Light, this will come after you have graduated to your full Ascension, as one of us; after you have gained the status of a "Being of Light", after you have become an "Immortal". Then, your cosmic passport to free access to all of the majestic Cities of Light will be given unto you, unconditionally. You will not even have to ask.
By knowing your challenges, are there ways in which we could assist you more directly?
We have much work to do in assisting the planet and humanity to take their next leap in their evolutionary process. For us, it is a great joy and honor to be in the Service of Love, and assist the Creator of All to bring His children, who have forgotten their origins in the Love of the Father, back home to His Heart. Our work is a labor of Love and of Compassion, we do not consider any of these to be challenges.
It is the surface populations that are going to have to experience the greatest challenges in order to wake-up from their spiritual slumber and embrace the fullness of their Christhood.
Most of the decisions concerning the Ascension of the planet come from Galactic and Universal Councils of Light, and from the Prime Creator Himself. Our work is to implement the plan that has been designed and entrusted to us, to uplift this planet into a higher dimension. The greatest challenge we face is to get you to accept new truth and new identities. It is one of our roles to assist the spiritual education of this humanity in the ways of Universal Laws and Principles, and the full acceptation and understanding of the true meaning of the Christ consciousness you need to open yourself to, in order for us to be able to assist you in ushering a new era of a golden age of Love, Brotherhood, Peace, Grace and Abundance for all.
To accomplish this, we need all of you reading this material, to engage yourself fully in your own evolutionary process and initiatic pathway for Ascension, and then helping others to do the same. We need all of you to take our material to your heart and study it seriously; and then share it with as many persons that are placed in your pathway that are ready to hear. We simply cannot accomplish this without the active cooperation, constancy and dedication of millions of light workers.
There are too many of you yet, perceiving yourselves "awakened" and on the path of initiation, but still not committed to "active service" to planetary work. Know that in order to complete your ascension initiations, it will be required from all candidates when they reach a certain level, to actively participate in planetary service.
If you feel a calling from your soul and you do not know what you can do or how to serve, offer your assistance in ways that will make a difference to those who are already working diligently in their planetary service. What is needed the most is "team work". In our realm, we all work in teams. There is always a person in charge and we all work in cooperation for the success of our endeavors. In this generation, so many of you, because of deep hurts, have chosen to spend much time alone and you find it difficult to work with others in team. We say to you, "Get used to team work", this is how everything will be accomplished in the future. In our realm, we do not have democracies. We all function as "hierarchy", a chain of love and harmony, always supporting each other for the benefit of the collective, and never for personal agendas.
Adama with your Earth Mother.

DNR recognizes Huron Waterloo Pathways Initiative for trails leadership
Posted on 10/12/2018 by HWPadmin
The Huron Waterloo Pathways Initiative was honored by the DNR at the October 2018 Natural Resources Commission meeting in Lansing, for the group's extensive trail-development work in southeast Michigan.

Michigan Department of Natural Resources sent the
following bulletin at 10/12/2018 03:30 PM EDT
The Michigan Department of Natural Resources presented a 2018 Partners in Conservation Award to the Huron Waterloo Pathways Initiative and its board chairman, Jeff Hardcastle, for the group's positive impact on nonmotorized trail development projects in southeast Michigan. The award was given out at Thursday's Natural Resources Commission meeting in Lansing.
"Our partners play a critical role in the department's management of Michigan's resources and outdoor recreation," said Ron Olson, chief of the DNR Parks and Recreation Division. "The Huron Waterloo Pathways Initiative has been the driving force for the development of many important trail projects in Washtenaw County, such as the Border-to-Border Trail and the Iron Belle Trail. The initiative is a strong role model for partnership, and we appreciate their work and dedication."
Partners in Conservation Awards are DNR employee-nominated awards presented to individuals, groups, organizations, units of government and elected officials for exemplary volunteer service that illustrates a commitment to conserving and managing natural resources and assisting the DNR in carrying out its mission.
The Huron Waterloo Pathways Initiative is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the facilitation and development of nonmotorized recreational trails through awareness, fundraising and the coordination of individuals, civic groups, businesses and government entities. Olson said that the initiative has followed its vision for creating healthy, active and connected communities to effect positive change in communities in Washtenaw County and beyond.
It has not only been a facilitator between state and local government agencies and advocacy groups, but also has raised $4 million that has been leveraged to nearly $9 million for trail projects in local communities.
The initiative recently has built, or is planning to build, approximately 25 miles of trails in that region of the state. Part of the trail group is Lew Kidder, who is leading the Karen's Trail initiative in memory of his wife, Karen McKeachie.

The original film, directed by Tony Scott, featured Cruise as a young naval aviator Pete Maverick Mitchell aboard the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise.
Less than a week after Tom Cruise confirmed that the highly anticipated sequel to the 1986 classic Top Gun, Top Gun 2 had begun filming, the new production has added another cast member.
Val Kilmer, 58, is reprising the Tom "Iceman" Kazansky pilot role which shot him to superstardom 32 years ago in 1986's Top Gun, according to The Wrap and The Hollywood Reporter. The film also starred Kelly McGillis, Tom Skerritt, Michael Ironside, Meg Ryan and Tim Robbins. In 2015 Kilmer announced that he'd been offered the film, which he accepted without reading the script. However, Kilmer later updated his Facebook post, saying he "jumped the topgun" in making the announcement.
Top Gun: Maverick is set to hit cinemas July 12, 2019. "An innocent mistake. It was just such a wonderful phone call with my agent..." Now, not only is Tom Cruise heading back into the lead role, but Val Kilmer is also heading back to the big screen as Iceman.
"It is very much a world we live in today where it's drone technology, and fifth-generation fighters are really what the United States Navy is calling the last man-made fighter that we're actually going to produce, so it's really [about] exploring the "end of an era" of dogfighting and fighter pilots and what that culture is today".
"Listen, it's an iconic character that [Cruise] helped create", the film's producer, Jerry Bruckheimer, told ET past year.

Lola gets her first Rope Climb!
Following a storm at sea, a young boy was walking along the shore and came across a stretch of sand with thousands of starfish. His heart was saddened, as he realized the starfish would soon die. He felt hopeless due to the magnitude of starfish and did not think anything he could do would make a difference.
The young man smiled, bent down, picked up a starfish and threw it into the sea.
"It made a difference to that one." The old man said.

The Greatest Rock Albums Ever
We're taking a break from the news and live show reviews to break down some of the best albums of all time.
Keep in mind, these are ONLY SOME of the best – not all of them and the focus is on the classic. Which ones are missing? Drop us a line and let us know!
How to pick the best of the Beatles' rock albums? It's difficult, but it's hard to argue that Revolver deserves the crown. A work of breathtaking quality – be it songwriting, performance, or sonically – and it opened up the boundaries of what was possible in popular music. Full of classics, of varying styles: if you've never listened to it, you should do so right now.
Key Track: Tomorrow Never Knows
The 50 Greatest Rock Albums Ever 1
Cream – Disraeli Gears
Probably rock's most successful supergroup, as the supreme individual talents of Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker and Eric Clapton combined to stunning effect. Disraeli Gears was their masterpiece, combining their classic rock and blues roots with psychedelia – as the cover hinted at (very subtly). It took just three and a half days to record; the product of a band at the peak of their powers.
Key Track: Sunshine Of Your Love
The Doors – The Doors
The album which introduced the world to the shamanic genius of Doors frontman Jim Morrison and which was probably the best record they made. Their psychedelic sound, rocking tracks and Morrison's poetic lyrics set them out from the crowd, and nobody could argue with songs as good as Break On Through (To The Other Side), Light My Fire and the epic album closer The End, which was later to be used to mesmerising effect in Apocalypse Now.
Key Track: Light My Fire
The Jimi Hendrix Experience – Are You Experienced
One of the greatest debut albums of all time, Hendrix announced his arrival on the scene with this record, which showcased his songwriting ability, virtuoso guitar skills and his not inconsiderable vocal skills – about which Hendrix was famously shy. It refined what was possible in rock, showcasing new sounds, new ideas, and a host of phenomenal songs. It's still irresistible today.
Key Track: Purple Haze (originally left off the British release, but restored later)
The Small Faces – Ogden's Gone Nut Flake
A concept record with a title to match, this was the creative peak and last act of frontman Steve Marriott. A quintessentially British affair, it featured psychedelic elements in both music and lyrics, a story about a boy named Happiness Stan – narrated by Stanley Unwin – and a host of memorable tracks. Lazy Sunday was originally written as a joke about arguments with Marriott's neighbours and released against the band's wishes. You can't keep a good tune down though, and it duly raced to No.2.
Key Track: Lazy Sunday
The Band – Music From Big Pink
A beguiling cocktail of country, rock, folk, classical and soul, Music From Big Pink was quite unlike anything that had been heard before. Striking out on their own after working as Bob Dylan's backing band, they nevertheless employed Dylan's help – he co-wrote five of the songs on this, but the rest – including the laidback style, was all their own. Hugely influential for fellow artists including Pink Floyd, George Harrison and Eric Clapton: a great record.
Key Track: The Weight
Jeff Beck – Truth
More accurately, an album by the Jeff Beck Group, featuring as it did a host of legendary players, including Keith Moon, John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page, Ronnie Wood and Rod Stewart alongside the famous guitarist. Sonically, it was an eclectic bridge between blues and hard rock, featuring nods to Muddy Waters, B.B. King and Howlin' Wolf amongst others, and was to inspire countless future musicians (including Boston's Tom Schultz, who named it as his favourite album). An influential classic.
Key Track: Let Me Love You
The Jimi Hendrix Experience – Electric Ladyland
A sprawling double album, this was to prove Hendrix's masterpiece. Not only was the great man himself on the form of his life, but so were his compatriots Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell. A dense, psychedelic opus, it also contained taut singles, including his legendary cover of All Along The Watchtower, Crosstown Traffic and Voodoo Child (Slight Return). A genius in full flow.
Key track: Voodoo Child (Slight Return)
The Beatles – Abbey Road
The last music recorded by the band with Sir George Martin, Abbey Road was created in a far-from-ideal environment for the Fab Four. Tensions within the band were high and Lennon proposed splitting the A and B sides between him and McCartney. Nevertheless, things came together – literally – for both principle songwriters, while George Harrison contributed two of his best-ever songs in the shape of Something and Here Comes The Sun. It stands, against all the odds, as a brilliantly cohesive piece of work.
Key Track: Come Together
Led Zeppelin – II
It's very hard to pick a second Led Zep album for this list, to stand alongside IV, but II just about gets our vote. The blueprint for so much of what was to come in rock, it saw Jimmy Page come of age in the studio and as a guitar player, and Robert Plant refine his, in turns, howlin', then gentle, vocal style. And, of course, what opens the record? Probably the greatest guitar riff of all time in Whole Lotta Love. According to engineer Eddie Kramer, the mid-song breakdown, "where everything is going bananas, is a combination of Jimmy and myself just flying around on a small console twiddling every knob known to man." Well, it came out pretty good Eddie.
Key Track: Whole Lotta Love
The 50 Greatest Rock Albums Ever 10
Creedence Clearwater Revival – Green River
Described at the time by Rolling Stone as "the most vivid American rock since Music from Big Pink", Green River had a lot in common with The Band's classic record. Rootsy, bluesy, country rock was the order of the day while, lyrically, it featured classic storytelling, and old childhood memories from frontman John Fogerty. Stick this on the stereo to be transported to a world of 60s Americana and good old rockin' tunes.
Key Track: Bad Moon Rising
The Who – Who's Next
In a quandary over how exactly to follow up the sprawling rock opera Tommy, guitarist Pete Townshend attempted to create another concept piece in the form of Lifehouse. However, when audiences – who were meant to be part of the performance – failed to respond, it drove Townshend to the edge of a nervous breakdown and almost caused a band split. Eventually, they enlisted engineer Glyn Johns and instead recorded a straight-ahead rock record. It was a wise move – all nine tracks were incredible, they'd never sounded sonically better or more interesting, and every member was on top form. An undisputed classic.
Key Track: Baba O'Riley
Rod Stewart – Every Picture Tells a Story
With Rod Stewart now indulging in easy listening covers and the like, it's easy to forget that he always had an effortlessly powerful rock voice. Nowhere was it better showcased that on this record, his third solo album, which featured guest appearances from fellow members of The Faces throughout. A great rock vocalist at the top of his game.
Key Track: Maggie May
Led Zeppelin – IV
Arguably Led Zeppelin's finest moment, this was the record with the perfect blend of what made them one of the greatest bands of all time. Pure rock and roll thrills (literally, on track two), gentle folk and bulldozing hard rock. And, of course, in the case of Stairway To Heaven – all three in one song, complete with probably the greatest guitar solo of all time. Essentially, a faultless album.
Key track: Stairway To Heaven
The Rolling Stones – Exile On Main Street
A record not highly regarded by the band themselves – Mick Jagger said that "when I listen to Exile it has some of the worst mixes I've ever heard" – but it remains a classic; a sprawling double album which captured the Stones at their most rootsy, their most bluesy, their most rock & roll. It was Keith Richards' finest moment and, although it didn't yield any smash hits, is a fantastically cohesive body of work.
Key Track: Tumbling Dice
Deep Purple – Machine Head
If it didn't have a single other song on it, Machine Head would merit its place in this list purely for the four bars of the riff in Smoke On The Water, which millions of aspiring guitars would go on to learn. Fortunately, the rest of the record is also brilliant, laying the roots for the later development of heavy metal, with stellar guitar, drum and organ work completed by Ian Gillan's howlin' vocals.
Key Track: Smoke On The Water
David Bowie – Ziggy Stardust & The Spiders From Mars
So much has been written about this album in the past that it seems a fruitless task to try and add any more. But when this record was released, it must have seemed like a literal alien had descended from Mars. A bisexual alien rock superstar alter-ego, lyrical themes of politics, sex and drugs, progressive production; it redefined what a rock star could do. And yet, all of this would have meant nothing if the songs were no good, but Bowie had that covered too. Still a thrilling listen.
Key Track: Starman
Pink Floyd – The Dark Side Of The Moon
After the initial Syd Barrett-inspired success of their debut album The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn, it took a while for Pink Floyd Mk II to find their feet. There were moments of greatness throughout the subsequent six albums, but it all came to a head with The Dark Side Of The Moon. Everything about it was epic; the ambition, the scope, the dynamics. And, of course, it featured one of the greatest album covers of all time, designed by the legendary Storm Thorgerson. The public agreed: upon release, it stayed in the Billboard charts for an astonishing 741 weeks from 1973 to 1988. Profits from it even went on to help fund Monty Python & The Holy Grail and you can't argue with that.
Key Track: Us And Them
Alice Cooper – Billion Dollar Babies
According to Cooper, "the whole idea behind the Billion Dollar Babies album was exploiting the idea that people do have sick perversions." Having achieved fame two years previously with Love It To Death, and followed that up with Killer and School's Out, the band really let rip on this record, writing lyrics that covered necrophilia, horror, sex and – because why not – the fear of dentists. Everything a rock record should be, it was provocative, strange and full of energy.
Key Track: Elected
Elton John – Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Prolific doesn't really do justice to Elton John's early output. Goodbye Yellow Brick Road was his seventh album in four years and contained 17 songs, with John writing the music for virtually all of them in just three days (For his part, Bernie Taupin took just two and half weeks to write the lyrics). This was Elton at his rocking, rollocking best, with a host of classic singles, including Candle In The Wind, Bennie & The Jets, the title track and the ultimate hedonistic rock and roll track, Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting; it was to become his best-selling album, and rightly so.
Key Track: Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting
Aerosmith – Toys In The Attic
Aerosmith had already released two well-received albums before their major commercial breakthrough, and it was Toys In The Attic that did it for the Boston boys. A heady mix of the Stones and Led Zep, with Joe Perry providing the riffs and solos and Steven Tyler the blues and sex on lead vocals, it was dirty no-good rock and roll at its absolute finest.
Key Track: Sweet Emotion
Having released Sheer Heart Attack the year before – the album where it all came together for the early Queen era – they spread their wings still further on the follow-up A Night At The Opera. Full of incredible songs written by all four members and sung by three of them, laden with studio trickery and a whole range of styles, it is a masterpiece. And, of course, while its sheer ubiquity makes us take it for granted, Bohemian Rhapsody remains pretty much the greatest six minutes of music ever created.
Key Track: Bohemian Rhapsody
Pink Floyd – Wish You Were Here
How could Pink Floyd follow up The Dark Side Of The Moon? Well, by recording an album that's arguably superior. It extensively explored the theme of absence – inspired by original singer Syd Barrett's plight – particularly on the stunning Shine On You Crazy Diamond, which bookended the record. A majestic record, dynamically and sonically rich, which explored different time signatures and sounds, but never forgot about the tunes and the lyrics. And of course, that 4-note riff in Shine On… which never fails to raise the hairs on the back of your neck.
Key track: Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Parts I-V)
Bruce Springsteen – Born To Run
The album that saw Springsteen break into the mainstream, Born To Run was a masterclass in production and songwriting, full of swaggering tunes and coming-of-age lyrics which resonated with listeners across the globe. It took 14 months to record, with 6 of those being spent just on the title track. It is safe to say it was worth it.
Key Track: Born To Run
Boston – Boston
The story of Boston's debut album is an incredible one. Upon getting a record deal, Boston main man Tom Scholz was unhappy at his label's suggestion that a producer be brought in to oversee the project. He hired a friend of a friend to act as an intermediary and stage an elaborate ruse to make Epic believe they were recording on the West Coast in a state-of-the-art location, while Scholz got to work in his tiny basement studio. He wrote or co-wrote every song, played virtually every instrument and engineered and produced the entire thing for a cost of just $2,000. It went on to sell 25 million copies and spawn huge, timeless, rock radio hits: all the product of a lone genius.
Key Track: More Than A Feeling
Thin Lizzy – Jailbreak
The band's breakthrough album, Jailbreak, came after various lineup changes and four albums which had failed to chart. This record, however, was where it all came together: duelling guitars, a hard rock swagger and the descriptive lyrics of frontman Phil Lynott. The title track was a classic and, of course, it featured the irresistible blast of youthful rebellion that is The Boys Are Back In Town. It broke them in America and set them on the road to rock stardom.
Key Track: The Boys Are Back In Town
The Eagles – Hotel California
It's fair to say that this one didn't do too badly on the sales front – over 32 million and counting worldwide. It wasn't all plain sailing though – Black Sabbath were recording in the studio next door and the band often had to stop because of the noise coming through the walls. A classic record in every sense, with its title track one of the most famous tracks ever recorded, it was inspired by a dark concept: the decline of America into materialism and decadence. A heavy theme for a grand record.
Key Track: Hotel California
Aerosmith – Rocks
Released just a year after Toys In The Attic, there was no let up for Aerosmith on their fourth album, which did exactly what it said on the tin. It took the Toys.. blueprint and upped the ante, with its unrelenting rocking proving hugely influential for the likes of Slash and James Hetfield – who both said that Rocks made them want to learn guitar. For that alone, it deserves its place on this list.
Key Track: Back In The Saddle
Meat Loaf – Bat Out Of Hell
An utterly unique piece of work, Bat Out Of Hell married the Wagnerian dreams of composer Jim Steinman with the truly larger-than-life quasi-operatic frontman that is Meat Loaf. It took years to record, it was rejected by many labels and executives, and even when it did find a home, almost everyone there hated it. Yet, slowly but surely, the record grew into a monstrous hit, selling more than 43 million copies, becoming a beloved rock classic. Thrilling, operatic and truly powerful.
Key track: Bat Out Of Hell
Van Halen – Van Halen
Hit singles came later, but Van Halen's self-titled debut album was a thunderbolt from the blue for rock music. David Lee Roth swaggered and crooned, but it was Eddie Van Halen that was the star of the show, redefining rock guitar playing through his legendary Eruption – a song that was literally entirely a solo and which brought tapping into the mainstream.
Key Track: Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love
Bruce Springsteen – Darkness On The Edge Of Town
The follow-up to the smash hit Born To Run, Springsteen adopted a different approach, recording songs 'as live' with a full band and shying away from his commercial sound. Despite not boasting any hit singles, as a body of work it was arguably superior, and became a slow burn success. The album was summed up by the cover image, with Springsteen commenting: "When I saw the picture I said, 'That's the guy in the songs.' I wanted the part of me that's still that guy to be on the cover. Frank [Stefanko, photographer] stripped away all [my] celebrity and left [me] with [my] essence. That's what that record was about."
Key Track: Adam Raised A Cain
AC/DC – Highway to Hell
If Back In Black heralded the start of a brave new era for AC/DC and a staggering debut for Brian Johnson, then Highway To Hell was the glorious final act of original singer Bon Scott. The first of their records to be produced by Mutt Lange, he refined and beefed up their sound to stunning effect as it became their breakthrough record. 10 tracks of no-nonsense rock and roll with riffs a-plenty, the most solid rhythm section in rock, and Scott's vocals blasting over the top: a fitting goodbye.
Key Track: Highway To Hell
Neil Young & Crazy Horse – Rust Never Sleeps
An album with an interesting genesis, it was mostly recorded live at San Francisco's Boarding House and during a tour, with half the record being acoustic, and half electric. Arguably Young's greatest album, his beautiful melodies and lyrical brilliance shine out through all the album's nine tracks.
Key Track: Powderfinger
Just how could AC/DC follow up Highway To Hell and, in particular, how could they even carry on after the tragic death of singer Bon Scott? With the blessing of Scott's family, they recruited Geordie frontman Brian Johnson and promptly made the best album of their career: a masterpiece in riffing, pure rock energy and tight songwriting and production. The ominous, slow and heavy Hells Bells set the tone for the record and, with barely any gaps between songs, it's nothing less than 42 minutes of unrelenting battering-ram rock and roll.
Key track: Shoot To Thrill
Journey – Escape
Journey had already undergone quite a musical, erm, journey, prior to this record, their eighth album – but here the elements combined to perfection. Timeless songs – including the epic opener Don't Stop Believin', which would become the ultimate slow burn hit and a track that even Glee couldn't ruin – Steve Perry's peerless vocals, lashings of rhythm section groove and virtuoso guitar playing; it's nothing less than a classic. It's sold over 12 million copies and almost certainly inspired many more air guitarists the world over.
Key Track: Don't Stop Believin'
ZZ Top – Eliminator
Named after the car that frontman Billy Gibbons built – and which features on the cover – Eliminator was Texas band ZZ Top's finest hour. The car was an appropriate metaphor, seeing as the record motors along, rocking throughout, with three enormous hits – Legs, Sharp Dressed Man and Gimme All Your Lovin'. A classic record from a band at the peak of their powers.
Key track: Gimme All Your Lovin'
Queen – The Works
A Night At The Opera was the high point of Queen in the 70s but, as the band revitalised themselves after the relatively disappointing Hot Space, they found their stadium-filling sound on 1984's The Works. The title was inspired by a quote from Roger Taylor as recording began – "Let's give them the works!" – and they certainly achieved that, combining their rock roots together with synth and electronic elements. Radio Ga Ga, Hammer To Fall, I Want To Break Free and It's a Hard Life were all part of this record – you simply can't argue with tunes as good as those. A year later they would perform on Live Aid and steal the show, with Radio Ga Ga unifying Wembley and the world.
Key Track: Radio Ga Ga
Dire Straits – Brothers In Arms
They might be dismissed in some quarters as dull and middle of the road, but those people are wrong: there's a reason Brothers In Arms sold more than 30 million copies and catapulted Dire Straits to stadiums everywhere – it's fantastic. Combining high end production, pop melodies, a touch of boogie as well as straight up rock, it boasted the enormous hits Walk Of Life, Money For Nothing and the epic, heartbreaking title track. Mark Knopfler proved throughout that while there might be quicker, and more fancy guitar players out there, he was one of the most effective, always choosing the right notes at the right time.
Key Track: Money For Nothing
Heart – Heart
The world of rock might be seriously skewed toward the masculine, but Heart showed it doesn't have to be. Their self-titled eighth album, following a period in the commercial wilderness, was a bona fide classic, containing no fewer than five hit singles, including What About Love? and the brilliant These Dreams. We heart Heart.
Key Track: These Dreams
Bon Jovi – Slippery When Wet
After two albums finding their feet, Bon Jovi decided to go for the jugular with their third album, enlisting the help of songwriter Desmond Child and producer Bruce Fairbairn. It was to prove a spectacular decision, with Slippery When Wet becoming an international smash, packed with stadium rock, sing-along staples such as You Give Love a Bad Name, Livin' On a Prayer and the epic power ballad Wanted Dead Or Alive. By the end of the subsequent tours after this came out, Jon Bon Jovi had indeed seen a million faces – and rocked them all.
Key Track: Livin' On A Prayer
Whitesnake – Whitesnake
A defining record of 1980s power rock, Whitesnake was a white-knuckle ride through an array of big production, huge tunes, David Coverdale's powerhouse vocals and the virtuoso guitar skills of Adrian Vandenberg. Featuring two enormous hits in the shape of the rerecorded Here I Go Again (originally featured on their 1982 album Saints & Sinners) and the power ballad Is This Love, it was a huge crossover hit.
Key Track: Here I Go Again '87
Def Leppard – Hysteria
Yet another appearance on the list for legendary producer Robert "Mutt" Lange, with the rock masterpiece that is Hysteria. It was a triumph for a variety of reasons, not least the recovery of Rick Allen. The drummer lost his arm in a car accident prior to recording, but the band waited for him to come out of hospital and recorded the biggest album of their career, full of huge-sounding no-nonsense stadium rock anthems – indeed, they aimed to make every song a potential single. It was to be the last album to feature guitarist Steve Clark, but what a fitting legacy.
Key track: Pour Some Sugar On Me
Guns 'N' Roses – Appetite For Destruction
Almost the perfect distillation of pure rock songs, debauched lyrics and general insanity, Appetite for Destruction has it all. From the guitar blasts at the start of Welcome To The Jungle all the way through to the groupie-assisted end of Rocket Queen, there is simply no let up, with Duff McKagan, Izzy Stradlin and Steven Adler's powerhouse rhythm section laying the groundwork for the majestic guitar playing of Slash and the raw vocal power of Axl Rose. They burnt briefly, but brightly, and this was their true peak.
Key track: Sweet Child o' Mine
U2 – Achtung Baby
After achieving worldwide fame with The Joshua Tree and then capitalising with the good, but flawed continuation of Rattle & Hum, U2 were in need of a creative refresh. They promptly decamped to Berlin, embraced electronic and industrial sounds and took themselves a whole lot less seriously. It was probably their darkest, densest record; but, paradoxically, contained their most uplifting hit, the anthemic One. Inventive, interesting and full of great songs, it's probably their best album.

Move-In Day: Final members of 2017 class move in, enroll in classes
by Nikki Hood - Staff Writer - Monday, June 26, 2017, 11:35 AM
The rest of the 2017 class poses for a picture Sunday
With a trip to the White House and Dabo Swinney's high school camps in the books, the 2016 season was complete and move in day for the 2017 Clemson football signees signals the beginning of a new season.
A few members of the 2017 class enrolled in January, but the class became complete on Sunday as A.J. Terrell, Amari Rodgers, Chase Brice, Jordan Williams, Justin Foster, LeAnthony Williams, Matt Bockhorst, Noah DeHond, Tee Higgins, Travis Etienne and walk-ons Will Brown and Will Swinney moved onto campus.
This group will join early enrollees Baylon Spector, Blake Vinson, Hunter Johnson, Logan Rudolph and the rest of the team in summer school and summer workouts as they work to prepare for the start of fall camp, which begins on August 4th.
With the loss of Mike Williams and Artavis Scott at wide receiver, many wonder if Higgins and Rodgers can come in and make an immediate impact. Higgins told TigerNet his goal is to compete for a starting spot right away.
"That's my goal. That's every freshman's goal to go in and play, but I've got to put in the dirty work on and off the field," Higgins said. "I've just got to go in there and compete with all of the other guys ahead of me and learn from them. I'm coming to make plays. I'm just looking forward to helping Clemson get more wins. I'm looking forward to playing with the guys. They seem like some really good guys, so I'm just looking forward to everything."
Rodgers echoed the sentiments of his friend and roommate.
"I saw the spring game, and they all balled out. Ray-Ray (McCloud) and Cornell (Powell) all did their thing. But I always have the confidence that I will be able to go in and play right away," he said. "That is just me. I am a competitor. I feel like I have the ability and the mindset to go in there and play right away. That is why I am working out now. I am not working out for two years from now; I am working out for a couple of months from now. That is really what I am pushing for.
"It's Clemson. They have everything they need already on the roster. They just won a National Championship. But what I think I bring is competitiveness, and I love the game of football. I will go out there every day and give it my all. I want to go out there and be a great team player."
Terrell and LeAnthony Williams will try and break through the two-deep in a young defensive backfield and capture early playing time, while Foster will provide depth at linebacker and Jordan Williams at defensive end.
Bockhorst hasn't played in a game in a while, and he's ready for the competitive nature of college football.
"The last actual snap in a game I took was in November of 2015. I went to The Opening last summer and that's a competition," Bockhorst said. "That's one of the greatest things about football is that it's so competitive and you get to compete as a unit on the offensive line. For me personally, I've always loved working out. I've always loved training. I love the environment of a weight room with a group of guys really getting after it, so that's kind of been my relief over the last year or so. That's where I've pushed myself and I've seen awesome results and I'm going to continue to do so. It's one of my passions. Once you get to this level of football, everyone is a competitor and everyone is trying to one-up the other guy and it's not necessarily a bad thing when teammates are competitive with one another and pushing each other to be better."
While weight room work and training are great, it lacks the one thing that burns inside any decent offensive lineman.
"It's kind of funny and not necessarily a joke, but I really want to hit somebody. It sounds funny and sounds awful, but that's such a huge part of my game is my ability to get after someone and go toe to toe with anybody," he said. "Obviously, it's going to be an adjustment when you're going against high school juniors and seniors and Dexter Lawrence. There's a little bit of uncertainty coming in but I just can't wait to compete - put your hand in the dirt and go against the guy across for you. As a lineman, there's nothing better you can ask for."
Who can learn the playbook and make enough of a splash during summer workouts and fall camp to avoid a redshirt? Only time will tell.

Shamorie Ponds, Gary Clark among surprising NBA draft combine snubs
DunkWire
May 5, 2018- by Bryan Kalbrosky Follow	@BryanKalbrosky
By Bryan Kalbrosky | May 5, 2018	Follow @BryanKalbrosky
Nearly 70 prospects for the 2018 NBA Draft have accepted invitations to the upcoming combine, but there are some notable omissions.
While top prospects like DeAndre Ayton and Robert Williams declined their invitations and several players (including Luka Doncic) are currently overseas, these are prospects who were not invited but can still make an impact at the next level.
Some of these players could return to school if they haven't hired an agent, while others may decide to stay in the draft pool.
Shamorie Ponds, Guard (St. John's)
Shamorie Ponds is still taking classes and has been working out on campus. St. John's fans need to be patient, and let this play out. #sjubb
— Zach Braziller (@NYPost_Brazille) May 4, 2018
One NBA scout told Michael Scotto that Ponds deserved an invitation (via The Athletic):
"He has great quickness, he's tough, and has the ability to create. He has a good handle. He should get a combine invite. Defensively, he needs to add strength. Offensively, he can create off the dribble and finish. He shoots better moving to his left. He played well in big games, which will give him a bump."
But the fact that he is still on campus could mean Ponds decides to return to St. John's next season. The 6-foot-1 guard has played two seasons in the NCAA and led the Big East in scoring last season with 21.6 points per game.
Gary Clark, Guard (Cincinnati)
Source: Yante Maten is 5th Portsmouth guy going to NBA Draft Combine. He's attending. @DraftExpress had him going first.
6 of the 7 Portsmouth invites/alternates featured in my top-100 board in March. Only surprise for me is Gary Clark is an alternate as opposed to an invite.
— Sam Vecenie (@Sam_Vecenie) May 2, 2018
The Athletic's Sam Vecenie has described Clark as "a really tough, physical player" who might be the smartest defender in the draft. He has also earned high praise from Mike Gribanov (via The Stepien):
"[He] is one of the best players in all of college basketball and he has helped revive Cincinnati basketball, as the last few years have been their most successful since the Bob Huggins era. His gritty hustle high-level feel should make Clark a useful piece off the bench."
However, according to Gribanov, Clark does not play a clear position and has a relatively weak game on offense.
While he averaged 1.2 steals and 1.3 blocks per game during his four-year collegiate career, he only put up 10.5 points per game. But he does add value as a rebounder, considering he averaged 8.7 boards per game as a senior.
Carsen Edwards, Guard (Purdue)
Re: Combine list–biggest omissions to me were Jalen Hudson and Carsen Edwards. Thought Gary Clark might have been worth one of the Portsmouth invites. Clearly a priority on those who weren't visible this season (i.e. Preston, Bowen, Wiley) and upside guys like Jaylen Hands.
— Jeremy Woo (@JeremyWoo) May 5, 2018
Edwards was very productive at Purdue last season, averaging 18.5 points per game with 2.6 three-pointers and a 40.6 percent accuracy from downtown.
While undersized, he was also a defensive standout with 1.1 steals per game. He was an All-American last season, but still doubts his NBA readiness (via JCOnline):
"I honestly look at it as I'm a long way from being able to be at that level. So I just keep working. Just take it day by day. I feel like I've said that a lot — just take it day by day."
He still has two years of college eligibility remaining and has not appeared on too many mock drafts in recent weeks.
Jarrey Foster, Forward (SMU)
SMU's Jarrey Foster will declare for the NBA Draft, but won't hire an agent, per his Twitter page.
— Jon Rothstein (@JonRothstein) March 26, 2018
Foster is 6-foot-7 with a 7-foot wingspan and he should be able to play both forward positions in the NBA.
Jackson Hay wrote about why he is worth draft consideration (via The Stepien):
"Foster brings an intriguing blend of basketball IQ, size, athleticism, and defensive versatility to the table as a wing/combo forward prospect. He will have to answer questions about his 3-point shooting ability and the effects of his knee injury, and he needs to be consistently engaged off the ball on defense. That said, Foster is the type of player who could stick as a do-it-all player at a position of need as long as he's healthy and his shot translates. He's worth a second-round flier due to that upside, but there are enough flaws in Foster's profile that a first-round selection seems out of the question."
He averaged just above one three-pointer per game for SMU last season. While his scoring and assist rates were both relatively low, he did have an impressive assist-to-turnover ratio.
The forward also averaged 1.2 blocks per game last season, which will be helpful at the next level.
UPDATE: Foster has decided to return to the NCAA for next season
Jalen Hudson, Guard (Florida)
Saw report the other day Jalen Hudson was invited to NBA Combine and lot of speculation that meant he was almost certainly gone.
I disagreed.
Turns out he wasn't on the list of NBA Combine invites obtained by Yahoo! Sports. #Gators
— Thomas Goldkamp (@ThomasGoldkamp) May 4, 2018
After two years at Virginia Tech, Hudson transferred to Florida after sitting out a season.
He averaged 15.5 points per game and shot an impressive 40.2 percent from long distance, making 2.3 three-pointers per game.
Hudson is a 6-foot-5 shooting guard who matched up well when he played against Cincinnati's Jacob Evans, who may be a first-round selection next month. He had 17 points with two steals and a block while Evans was held to just 13 points and no assists.
Other notable omissions
Jalen McDaniels, San Diego State (Forward)
Kerwin Roach, Guard (Texas)
Jaylen Adams, Guard (St. Bonaventure Adams)
Keenan Evans, Guard (Texas Tech)
Lindell Wigginton, Guard (Iowa State)
Jordan Caroline, Wing (Nevada)

To describe e compare the specificity of IgA antibodies against bacteria extract of Klebsiella pneumoniae , Staphylococcus aureus , Escherichia coli , and Salmonella enteritidis .
Colostrum samples were aseptically collected in the first 12 hours after C-section delivery. The specificity of IgA against bacteria extracts was analyzed by the Western blot.
The findings showed proteins of high molecular weight frequently detectable in the samples. S. aureus was the most frequently found bacterium in the samples (p<0.05). Approximately 93.8, 56.3, 62.5 and 60.4% of samples presented IgA reactive to S. aureus , K. pneumoniae , S. enteritidis, and E. coli, respectively. Roughly 40% of samples showed no IgA reactive to K. pneumoniae, S. enteritidis and E. coli .
Clinical evidence of the importance of breastfeeding for the immune protection of neonates was consistent with the observed immunological findings, since most samples showed IgA reactive against the species tested. The application and development of immunotherapies during pregnancy, focused on frequently detected antigens, could be an important tool to enhance the presence of IgA in colostrum.
Although exclusive breastfeeding is recommended and practiced, some newborns that are breastfeeding can develop bacterial infection during the neonatal period. There is evidence that children, although being breastfed, can develop diarrhea by Campylobacter due to a lack of specific antibodies against virulence antigens for this bacterium in colostrum. (23) Thus, it is necessary to determine, in samples of colostrum, the presence and specificity of IgA against bacteria commonly involved in neonatal infections, such as S. aureus, K. pneumoniae, S. enteritidis and E. coli .
A total of 48 mothers were enrolled in this study upon consent. The Ethical Committee approved this study CAAE: 02166713.4.0000.5145. Only healthy mothers, 12 hours after delivery, were included in standard collection. Information on maternal and gestational background was obtained through interviews with the mothers. Samples of colostrum were collected by manual expression into sterile polypropylene Falcon tubes. After collection, the maternal samples were transported in ice to the laboratory, centrifuged at 1,300g for 7 minutes to remove lipid components and stored at -80°C until use.
Extracts of S. aureus (ATCC 25923), K. pneumoniae (ATCC 13883), S. enteritidis (ATCC 13076) and E. coli (ATCC 11303) were obtained from fresh culture as previously described. (20) Seventeen micrograms of extracts were separated by 6%-SDS-page and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes. The membranes were incubated with colostrum (1:1,000) samples. After washing, they received a solution of antibody HRP- goat anti-human IgA (Sigma) revealed by the ECL system (Amersham Biosciences Little Chalfont, Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom) and exposed in biofilm for five minutes.
The developed X-ray films were scanned in a scanning densitometer (Bio-Rad GS-700 Imaging Densitometer) and the images were evaluated with ImageQuant Software (Amersham Biosciences) to analyze patterns of antigen recognition, including the number and intensity of reactive bands. Signals were converted to absolute counts by comparison with the standards on the same membrane. Failure to detect a signal was recorded as zero. A film blank value was subtracted from the value of the reactive band.
Some membranes were incubated with blocking buffer without samples to obtain negative control. As positive control, membranes were incubated with a saliva sample whose pattern of reaction with antigen extracts had been previously measured. The reactive bands represent the presence of IgA specific to proteins separated by the SDS page from each bacterium extract.
The mean number of IgA bands and densitometry values of reactive Ags were determined and compared between the bacteria by Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The frequencies of positive IgA reactive to antigens were assessed by χ 2 test. The correlations between IgA antibodies and specific to antigens were tested by Pearson analysis. A p value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.
The mothers were healthy and no complication during or after delivery was reported. Their mean age was 25.2±3.3 years. There were no differences in racial profile (p>0.05). All babies were born full term (>37 weeks of gestation). No associations were found between immunoglobulin levels and racial, maternal age, type of birth and socioeconomic data (Pearson, p>0.05). There were also no statistically significant differences between immunoglobulin levels and types of delivery: cesarean or vaginal (p>0.05).
Examples of immunoassays of samples with positive IgA response against the bacterial antigens are represented in figure 1 . The frequencies of samples with positive (with at least one detectable band) and negative responses to the four strains are represented in table 1 . The majority of samples showed reactive IgA against S. aureus , followed by S. enteritidis , E. coli and K. pneumoniae ( Table 1 ). The number of samples with positive response to S. aureus was statistically higher than for other bacteria ( Table 1 ; p<0.05; q>15.00).
* χ 2: p=0.001, q=15.10; † χ 2: p=0.001, q=18.00; ‡ χ 2: p=0.001, q=17.10; § ANOVA: p<0.001; ¶ ANOVA: p<0.001; || ANOVA: p<0.05; # ANOVA: p<0.05.
The number of IgA bands reactive against S. aureus ranged from 2 to 11 (mean: 4.89±2.19); to K. pneumoniae , from 1 to 11 (mean: 2.93±2.19); to S. enteritidis , from 1 to 11 (mean: 3.73±2.21); and against E. coli , from 1 to 8 (mean: 3.76±1.911). Mean number of IgA-reactive bands to microbial antigens from S. aureus , E. coli , K. pneumoniae and S. enteritidis are represented in figure 2 . The mean number of bands reactive to S. aureus was elevated and there were statistically significant differences in comparison to other bacteria ( Figure 2 ; p<0.05). There were no differences in the mean number of bands between K. pneumoniae , S. enteritidis and E. coli (p>0.05).
IgA bands recognized and detected in bacterial extracts were analyzed, and their molecular weight (kDa) was calculated by the equation obtained by the analysis of the molecular weight standard bands. The number of samples with positive IgA to antigens and their respective molecular weight with S. aureus, K. pneumoniae , S. enteritidis and E. coli are represented in figure 3 . There was a great variation in the bands recognized by IgA for each bacterial extract, and the majority of them showed a high molecular weight ranging between 247-109kDa. Approximately 59 bands of different molecular weights were detected. A 244KDa band was common in samples of S. aureus , K. pneumoniae and S. enteritidis but there was no correlation between them (p>0.05, r<0.28).
The most detected frequencies of samples with positive response to antigens are represented in table 1 . The IgA response against S. aureus showed the greatest diversity; more than 20 types of different bands were detected (p<0.05). The reactivity of IgA against S. aureus showed a prevalence of bands with high molecular weight (p<0.05, Figure 3 ). Over 55% of samples with positive response to S. aureus showed IgA reactive to 230kDa and 208kDa. Twelve different bands were found among samples with positive IgA to S. enteritidis (n=30). Bands of 244 and 220kDa were recognized in 53.4% of samples and were statistically more detected than the others ( Table 1 , p<0.05).
The analysis of IgA against K. pneumoniae revealed 14 distinct bands ( Figure 3 and Table 1 ). The frequency of positive response against the most detected bands ( Table 1 ) did not differ (p>0.05). The immunoblots of IgA against E. coli showed 13 different bands ( Figure 3 and Table 1 ), but there were no differences in the frequency of IgA response between these bands (p>0.05).
There were variations in the intensities of IgA antibody reactions with the recognized bands among children in both groups. Table 1 shows the sums of intensities of IgA reactions with all bands detected for each species (total intensities). In general, the intensity of IgA response was higher to S. aureus than other bacteria (p<0.05). In addition, the total intensity of IgA response to E. coli was decreased in comparison to K. pneumoniae (p<0.05).
Although the majority of samples had reactive IgA against these bacteria, about 40% of samples did not present IgA reactive to K. pneumoniae , S. enteritidis or E. coli , which suggests that some newborns may develop infections from these microorganisms even though they are breastfed. One of the reasons suggested to explain breastfed children with diarrhea by Campylobacter is a lack of specific antibodies against common antigens of virulence of Campylobacter in samples of colostrum. (23) Thus the importance of not only of studying the presence of IgA against bacteria, but also of evaluating and identifying immunodominant antigens of these species in the natural immune response.
The results showed a great diversity of the antigen species tested, with a predominance of high molecular weight protein. The most common bands can be related to the pathogenic action and/or antigenic stimulation of these bacteria, such as 230 and 289kDa S. aureus ; and the four most prevalent bands of S. enteritidis and E. coli are shown in table 1 . K. pneumoniae showed a great variability in IgA response, but did not show a specific pattern of response. The literature provides some information about several antigens of these bacteria that are involved in their pathogenic capacities, but little is known about the high molecular weight antigens widely recognized by the samples of this study.
An antigen of 94kDa called "intimin" and other antigens recognized by IgA of 70, 80 and 110kDa were associated in the injury process "attaching and effacing" by enteropathogenic E. coli in human milk. (6) Also, Rck is a 17KDa outer membrane protein, expressed in E. coli and S. enteritidis , which inhibits complementary pathways, thereby preventing opsonization through this route. (27) No sample showed IgA reactive to intimin (94kDa) and 17kDa band, but about 38 and 17% of samples responded to a band of 72 and 117kDa, respectively, probably the same as previously reported. (6) K. pneumoniae antigens of 35 and 36kDa opsonizing induce antibodies (28) and were recognized by 29% of the present study samples.
The 106kDa antigen (fibronectin type A) is one of the most important molecules involved in the adhesion in the early stages of infection by S. aureus . (29) In addition to those, protein constituents of S. aureus membrane of 30 and 36kDa may play an important role in infections caused by this bacterium. (30) These antigens were detected in 17% of samples with positive responses.
The majority of colostrum samples can protect newborns against neonatal bacterial infection. It is important to understand how those antibodies provided by breastfeeding could help the mucosal immune system against the colonization and the challenge offered by those species, in order to develop prevention strategies to avoid such infections. The natural response to bacterial extracts tested shows a promising way for the development of vaccines containing antigens that could be applied during pregnancy, increasing the specific IgA levels in colostrum.

Good afternoon Patriots, I had asked Dewitt to let everyone know that I lost my entire email list as well as all of my emails (just disappeared)L I am not totally back up yet but am able to send emails. I wanted to pass this along.
STAY LOUD AND VOCAL PATRIOTS !!!!
You are invited to a Tele-TownHall with Senator Jim DeMint (SC) to discuss the US Budget/Debt Ceiling and the Cut, Cap & Balance Pledge.
Please share this with others so that they too can hear what Senator DeMint has to say about the current debt ceiling debate. He has volunteered to do this call because he wants everyone in the grassroots movement to fully understand where we are and why he and so many Constitutional conservatives support the Cut, Cap & Balance Pledge.
Leading the call will be Tea Party Express Chairwoman Amy Kremer, and also joining the call will be special guest Ken Klukowski to discuss the constitutionality of the Cut, Cap & Balance Pledge. You can read more about Ken Klukowski HERE.
Do you have questions or comments for Senator DeMint?
If so, please email alex@lfrusa.com with "DeMint" in the subject line. Please be sure to include your name and town.

Picture rolls from bottom to top.It just started happening and doesn't happen often but,I am concerned it will get worse.Also the volume will turn down by itself and then come back on and so on.And no,I am not sitting on the remote.
Make sure you try two different sources to the tv, such as a cable box, dvd player and/or gaming system. If you have issues with all sources then it is for sure the tv and there should be a format option. However if it is only one source that the issue is with the issue is of course the source.
it might be due to bad signal strength. check for it. good luck!
If the picture is curved on the top / bottom and looks like a "rainbow", the convergence amps need to be replaced.
When a Sony TV flashes five times, that means that there is an AKB circuit fault.
This means that there is something wrong with the video.
When you get this error, several IC and components concerning the video signal must be tested and eventually replaced.
Power surge may have blown tv- Sony KP-46WT500- worth fixing?

This home is a must see, and will surprise you with its amazing livability. The layout has been purposefully designed for its adaptability to any growing family. The gorgeous photos do not even do it justice. The owners put over $300,000 in upgrades and architectural renovations, and have made designer choices and thoughtful improvements for the most functional use of space you've ever seen. This Bayshore Beautiful home is as unique as it is functional, and completely move in ready. With the additions that provide a large family enough room to retreat to private spaces or gather together and entertain a crowd, the livable design was envisioned and executed by architect Chris Joiner, and truly offers a dynamic floor plan that welcomes you home. The spacious first-floor master bedroom boasts a spa-like en-suite bathroom and huge walk-in closet, as well as access to the comfortable screened back porch and easy access to the sizable laundry room. Both additional first floor bedrooms are roomy and offer flexibility for a nursery, guest rooms, an office, or cozy den. Upstairs, the high ceilings provide an airy, light-filled space, which provides the perfect opportunity to create a play room or rec room in the large loft, and the two bedrooms have custom-designed walk-in closets with plenty of storage. With close proximity to Bayshore Boulevard, the Tampa Yacht and Country Club, Ballast Point Park, Gandy, Dale Mabry, the Crosstown and more, the home could not be more conveniently located for all that South Tampa has to offer. A major renovation/addition was done in 2012 that took it from being a 2/2 to a 3/2, plus added a one car garage and breakfast room, back patio, significantly larger master bedroom and walk-in closet. In early 2015, the second floor was added, which offers an additional two bedrooms and one full bath plus large loft/playroom. The master bath and back hall powder room were remodeled in 2020/2021. The older portion of the roof was replaced in December 2022, a new hot water heater was installed in 2022, a new main water line to the house was installed in 2021, and the original plaster ceilings were replaced and updated with LED lights in 2022. Most of the interior walls were repainted in 2022 and 2023, and fresh brand new-carpet was just installed in 2023 in the auxiliary bedrooms and playroom. The home has been lovingly updated and maintained by the current owners, and is ready for a new chapter.
