SALEM, Mass. -- Junior Tyler Chasnov (Plymouth, Mass./Plymouth North) matched his season-high with six points to power the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth men's lacrosse team to a 16-9 Little East Conference victory over Salem State University this evening at Alumni Field.
The Corsairs (11-4) captured the third seed in the upcoming Little East Men's Lacrosse Championship tournament with a 4-2 record. UMass Dartmouth will host the No. 6 seed on Tuesday, April 29 at 7 PM.
UMass Dartmouth utilized a well balanced scoring attack as nine Corsairs registered at least one point, including eight different goal scorers. Chasnov displayed his play-making skills with two goals and four assists. Sophomore Bo Prozinkski (Ashland, Mass.) recorded four goals, while junior Riley Baxter (Groton, Mass.) also produced four points with three goals and an assist. Senior Jordan MacPherson (Westwood, Mass.) and classmate Adam Niden (Walpole, Mass.) each tallied three points.
UMass Dartmouth jumped out to an early 2-0 lead after goals were scored by Prozinkski and Chasnov in the opening minutes. Jacob Scordato (Milford, Mass.) cut the deficit to one with just under five minutes to play with a nifty finish out front of the net on a pass from Lento. Seconds later, McPherson added to the Corsairs lead with a strong shot that slipped past Vikings goalie, Dylan Svenson (Billerica, Mass.), to gain a 3-1 lead. Baxter contributed a goal as well that put UMass Dartmouth up two with two minutes remaining in the first period. However, before the end of the first, Lento was able to get a goal that cut UMass Dartmouth's' lead to just two prior to the second.
Baxter wasted no time in scoring for the Corsairs in the second quarter with a strong move to the goal that put UMass Dartmouth up 5-3 thirty seconds into the frame. To answer, Andy Rice (Weymouth, Mass.) muscled a goal past Corsairs starting goalie, Nick Thayer (Chelmsford, Mass.) to bring the Vikings within two. Baxter added another goal but was followed by two unanswered goals from Alex Pearsons (Burlington, Mass.) and Rice of Salem State that allowed the hosts to whittle their deficit to one.
UMass Dartmouth would not let the Vikings get any closer as the visitors erupted for a four-goal surge to extend their advantage to 10-5. During that stretch, goals were scored by Prozinski, Chasnov, Todd Davis II (Sandwich, Mass.) and Niden.
The run took the contest into the third period were Rice added another goal for Salem State to decrease the Corsairs lead to 10-6 with 12 minutes remaining in the quarter. The visitors utilized a 3-0 run to balloon to seal their second straight conference win.
Thayer finished with eight saves for UMass Dartmouth as he allowed seven of the nine goals. The other two goals were let in by back-up goalie Scott Spangenberg (Dover, Mass.). Svenson made 13 saves as he allowed 13 goals but was replaced in the third by Dominic Rovetto (Newbury, Mass.) who played well, making three saves on six attempts.
Lento finished the game with five points for Salem State on four assists and a goal.
UMass Dartmouth will close out its regular-season at 1 p.m. on Saturday, April 26, when the Corsairs travel to University of Massachusetts Boston.

Brundage Mountain Resort has a special place in the hearts of Idaho snow lovers. Snow conditions are consistently outstanding, which is why Brundage Mountain has earned the reputation for the Best Snow in Idaho™. It's no secret that the snow is deep and the lift lines are usually short. The mountain gets frequent storms, so skiers and boarders can cruise on freshly groomed runs or search for powder stashes in the trees and bowls.
For beginners, Brundage is one of the best mountains in Idaho to learn on—the drive-up daycare and Kid's Center makes it easy to get the whole family where they need to go. The Easy Street double chair and Bear Chair triple provide easy access to beginner and advanced beginner terrain close to the Kid's Center.
A majority of the luxuriously wide groomed runs are rated for intermediates, but experts who like to head off-trail have endless options. Shoot over to the north side of the mountain to Hidden Valley (follow the expert only signs) and go big. Real powder hounds will want to try the backcountry snow-cat program which operates on 18,000 acres of Payette National Forest.
Visit Brundage and you'll pick up on that authentic Idaho feeling. Just eight miles away, the town of McCall will impress you with its friendly, low-key vibe.
Brundage Mountain has recently acquired ownership of 488 acres at the base area, and future plans include brand-new base area facilities and ski-in, ski-out lodging.
With the best snow in Idaho, a family atmosphere, affordable prices, friendly people, and an uncrowded powder experience, Brundage is a true snowrider's mountain, poised to become a favorite destination resort.

The History of Cougar Dave-
Cougar Dave Lewis, miner, guide and bounty hunter, was as wild and free as the mountain, as independent and solitary, as unfathomable and some would say as stubborn and immovable as the peak that bears his name. He lived alone in the center of what is now the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness and played a part in establishing the original Idaho Primitive Area.
During the 1920's and '30's, David Lewis gCougar Dave Imageuided hunts for some of the most influential men in Idaho and across the country, including Governor H. C. Baldridge, Frederick Weyerhaeuser and Claude Fordyce, editor for Outdoor Life.
The Idaho Statesman called him "one of Idaho's most colorful characters" and numerous articles in newspapers and magazines featured him, but he never told anyone where he was born and raised. In the 1910 census he claimed to have been born in Arkansas, in 1920 he said Wales, and in 1930 it was Illinois. Why did he refuse to let the word "Oregon" pass his lips?
Pat Cary Peek, author of One Winter in the Wilderness, the Idaho Library Association's book of the year for 1998, unravels the mystery of his early life through personal interviews and painstaking research. She follows his life from Oregon to Idaho where he worked as a miner, civilian packer during the Sheepeater War, professional hunter and guide. He maintained his silence about his origins until his life's journey came to a surprising end.
Pizza restaurant with free live music 10 months out of the year.

When I teach introductory computer science courses, I like to lighten the mood with some humor. Having a sense of fun about the material makes it less frustrating and more memorable, and it's even motivating if the joke requires some technical understanding to 'get it'!
I'll start off with a couple of my favorites:
Q: How do you tell an introverted computer scientist from an extroverted computer scientist?
A: An extroverted computer scientist looks at your shoes when he talks to you.
And the classic:
Q: Why do programmers always mix up Halloween and Christmas?
A: Because Oct 31 == Dec 25!
I'm always looking for more of these, and I can't think of a better group of people to ask. What are your best programmer/computer science/programming jokes?

HONOLULU — Palace intrigue? Check. Royal rapscallions? Some. Kings and queens and gorgeous things? You'll find those too.
You thought we were speaking of Britain, perhaps? Well, no, although Britain celebrated Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee in June. Instead, we're turning to Hawaiian royalty, who ruled a kingdom now so popular that 7.3 million people visited last year.
Royal watchers will find almost as many twists and turns in the story of the Hawaiian monarchs as they do among England's overlords. But this history is closer to home and perhaps strikes more fully at the heart. By knowing these kings and queens, you begin to understand the true majesty of Hawaii.
A quest for a refresher course recently brought me to Oahu. This isn't the only island where the past pokes its head around many corners, but its concentration in Honolulu makes it easy to seek it out and soak it in. You can separate this five-stop royal route into appetizers or consume it as one large feast. Either way, you'll find that even a tropical playground — and especially this one — can change a traveler's perspective.
Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum
Let the lessons — and the confusion — begin. Immediately inside the original part of the museum, whose exterior is almost Dickensian, the Kahili Room (feather standards borne like coats of arms in Europe) will introduce you to Hawaiian royalty, or alii, but the bloodlines may not be clear. (You can see a timeline of the monarchs who ruled the kingdom on LX.)
Sorting out who is related to whom is a chore, partly because monogamy wasn't practiced until some time after the arrival of the missionaries about 1820 (Kamehameha I is said to have had 21 or more wives) and partly because of what the Hawaiians call hanai, in which children sometimes were given to relatives or others to raise. "It is not easy to explain its origin to those alien to our national life, but it seems perfectly natural to us," Queen Liliuokalani wrote in her book "Hawaii's Story by Hawaii's Queen."
You can get a feel for the chronology of the rulers in this room: Kamehameha I, a fighter and a diplomat who united the islands and died in 1819; Kamehameha II, who, with his wife, died of measles in 1824 while visiting King George IV in England; and Kamehameha III, who changed the government to a constitutional monarchy before his death in 1854.
Brothers Kamehameha IV (died in 1863) and Kamehameha V traveled extensively, including to the U.S., where the racial prejudice they encountered tainted their view of this country.
When Kamehameha V died in 1872 without an heir, Lunalilo was elected. The wildly popular monarch, the "People's King," died after 13 months in 1874, his ill health perhaps hastened by his taste for strong drink.
David Kalakaua was next, and during his reign was forced to accept a new constitution that depleted his powers. Upon his death in 1891, his sister, Liliuokalani, took the throne and lasted about two years before she was overthrown. She was tried for treason, convicted and sentenced to five years at hard labor, a sentence later commuted.
It is hard now to imagine, in a place as joyful as Hawaii, the sorrow of watching the kingdom wrested away from its rightful rulers. Was it a power grab by foreign business interests or an altruistic intervention by foreigners? A morning or afternoon at the Bishop can be your own fact-finding mission, and whatever your conclusion, you'll never look at Hawaii the same.
Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum, 1525 Bernice St., Honolulu; (808) 847-3511, http://www.bishopmuseum.org. Open 9 a.m.-5 p.m. daily except Tuesdays. Admission: $17.95 adults, $14.95 seniors 65 and older and children 4-12; children 3 and younger are admitted free.
Iolani Palace
On the grounds of Iolani Palace is a sacred mound where Hawaiian royalty once were buried. "Kapu" — forbidden — a sign warns.
The palace, which served the last two monarchs, is more welcoming. Once you don the booties that keep your shoes from scratching the Douglas fir floors, you'll immediately notice the royal portraits lining the wall, providing a sort of Cliffs Notes review of the monarchy.
It's easy, however, to be diverted from those portraits by the entry's real showpiece: the gleaming koa wood staircase, said to be the largest such structure in the world. (The palace was closed for renovations for almost a decade starting in 1969; the work included tenting the building because termites had feasted on various parts of the palace. But the staircase was fine, said Kippen de Alba Chu, the palace executive director, because koa is so durable.)
This is the palace, completed in 1882, from which King David Kalakaua and his wife, Queen Kapiolani, and, later, Queen Liliuokalani, reigned.
In 1883, a coronation ceremony was held in the new palace, though it was slightly after the fact: Kalakaua had reigned since 1874. No matter. The European-influenced palace became the heart of parties and functions.
It was such a symbol that when the Hawaiian monarchy was overthrown in 1893, the new provisional government couldn't get rid of the palace contents fast enough. (One plate, belonging to a royal place setting, which you can see on the sumptuously set dining room in the palace, was bought for 25 cents at a flea market in San Diego and returned; other pieces came home in a similar way.) Many of the furnishings are replacement pieces.
But not the thrones. In a room resplendent with crimson and gold, two thrones stand side by side. They are originals, and they are unrestored. "They're identical," Chu said, "so we're not 100% sure which was the king's and which was the queen's." This room invites you to linger and ponder how the monarchy unraveled in a place of such innovation: electricity before the White House had it; telephones; indoor plumbing; dumbwaiters. It had everything but a fairy-tale ending.
Iolani Palace, 364 S. King St., Honolulu; (808) 538-1471 (for recorded information), http://www.iolanipalace.org. Guided tours (reservations required [808] 522-0832) $20 for adults, $6 for children 5-12; self-led and audio tours $13 and $5, respectively.
Washington Place
"It is a large, square, white house, with pillars and porticos on all sides, really a palatial dwelling, as comfortable in its appointments as it is inviting in its aspect," Queen Liliuokalani wrote of Washington Place in her book, "Hawaii's Story by Hawaii's Queen."
Before and after Liliuokalani's ascension to the throne in 1891, Washington Place was her home. The elegant Greek Revival dwelling was owned by Capt. John Dominis, a seaman, and his wife, Mary. It was completed in 1847, a year after Dominis was said to have been lost at sea.
Their son, John, attended the Chiefs' Children's School, or the Royal School, established by missionaries for children of royal blood. (Absent any royal blood, Dominis' admission remains something of a mystery.) It was there that he met a student named Lydia Kamakaeha, who would become his wife — and the last reigning monarch. Washington Place was her home more for more than a half-century.
Given the Hawaiian history, Washington Place may seem an odd choice for a name, but it was so decreed for perpetuity by Kamehameha III and so it has remained. Today, the home, which is open for tours by appointment, is "decorated very much like it was during the queen's time," said Corinne Chun Fujimoto, the curator of Washington Place. "That's what we are trying to do: bring the house back to the time of the queen and bring her music back." Her music, of course, included "Aloha Oe," or "Farewell to Thee," one of scores of pieces she wrote.
In Washington Place, a grand piano sits as though ready for the queen herself, a tall kahili in the background. Besides the piano, she played organ, guitar and autoharp, thanks to her musical training at the Royal School. "She understands it's the culture that will take her people to the future," Chun Fujimoto said.
Of this home, the queen wrote in her memoir: "It is, in fact, just what it appears, a choice tropical retreat in the midst of the chief city of the Hawaiian Islands." That is as true now as it was then, and definitely worth the time to get to know the home of the only reigning Hawaiian queen, who loved children but had none of her own and who loved her kingdom but stepped aside to spare her people a full-bore war.
Washington Place, 320 S. Beretania St., Honolulu; (808) 586-0240, http://www.lat.ms/RkiuIk. Appointment required; email firstname.lastname@example.com. No cost but donation for preservation accepted.
Queen Emma Summer Palace
If you look today at the Queen Emma Summer Palace, you see a graceful home set against the lush backdrop of Nuuanu Valley. If things had turned out differently, you might be watching a baseball game being played here instead of seeing how history played out.
Like many structures, this one had fallen into disrepair and was slated, along with its 65 acres, to become a ball field until the Daughters of Hawaii intervened in 1915 and turned it into a showpiece.
The palace, about three miles from downtown, is filled with beautiful artifacts, some original to the abode that Queen Emma and her husband, King Kamehameha IV (who became king after his predecessor's death in 1854) used as an escape from Honolulu's heat. You'll see a koa bed that has its own safe-deposit boxes, of a sort, built into it; a Chinese porcelain bathtub; and a necklace that was a gift from the maharajah of India.
But none is as compelling as the cradle in which the king and queen's son, Prince Albert, slept. The koa wood piece, crafted by German woodworker Wilhelm Fischer, resembles a half an egg, as though a protection against the dangers of childhood.
Ravaged by disease and perhaps a weakened gene pool, the number of Hawaiians dwindled rapidly after missionaries arrived about 1820. In the 1830s, there were 124,000 Hawaiians; by the 1880s, only 44,000 remained. Prince Albert's birth was reason enough for joy, and his survival past his first birthday gave the kingdom hope for the future of the monarchy.
If you're a student of this history now, you know that the next Kamehameha was a brother, not a son. The young boy in whom the people had placed their hope died in 1862. He was 4 years old. His father, grief-stricken, died 15 months later. After their deaths, Queen Emma was given the nickname Kaleleonalani, "flight of the heavenly ones."
Queen Emma Summer Palace, 2913 Pali Highway, Honolulu; (808) 595-3167, http://www.daughtersofhawaii.org. Open 9 a.m.-4 p.m. daily, except holidays. Docent-guided tours $10 for adults, $8 for seniors (62 and older), $1 for children (younger than 18); self-guided tours are $8 for adults, $6 for seniors and $1 for children.
Mauna Ala
After Albert's death, Kamehameha IV ordered a new mausoleum built to house his son. Mauna Ala ("fragrant mountain"), the Royal Mausoleum, is not far from the Summer Palace.
"These grounds were special to the Hawaiian people, especially the Kamehameha family," said Kainoa Daines of the Oahu Visitors Bureau, an active member of the Royal Order of Kamehameha I, responsible for ceremonial protocols. "It was at this very spot … where Kamehameha's army met Kalanikupule's army [in 1705], and blood was shed for the first time. It was a pivotal place, a very pivotal battle in the unification of the islands."
The bodies of other royals, who were in the burial mound at Iolani, were moved here in 1865. "From 9 p.m. until 2 a.m. the commoners were told to stay inside their house" because they didn't have the rank — the mana — to witness the procession, Daines said. To muffle the sounds of beasts and the wagons they pulled, the streets were lined with pili grass (often used in thatch work), and all of the caskets were moved into what was then the mausoleum and what is now the chapel.
Soon the mausoleum wasn't large enough, so one crypt was built for the Kamehamehas (except Kamehameha I, whose body was hidden) and one for the Kalakauas. (Lunalilo also is not here; he's buried at Kawaiahao Church in downtown Honolulu.)
Mauna Ala is a who's who of Hawaiian royalty, and it was humbling to stand before them. Daines chanted and placed leis at the Kalakaua and Kamehameha crypts. A light rain fell as he bent to put the flowers on the pink granite monument that marks the tomb of the Kamehamehas.
Making sure to face the tomb, he stepped backward, saying softly, "It's for all of us."
Mauna Ala Royal Mausoleum, 2261 Nuuanu Ave., Honolulu; http://www.lat.ms/WqNvvC. Open 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Mondays-Fridays. Admission is free.

Some questions that some people have asked that might be of interest to you while you're a-shoppin'.
Which holder should I choose?
Great question! We started with just the one standing earring holder, then realised you're not all sheep. You have your own style! And you have your own earring storage needs! So, let's break it down below!
What kinds of earrings do you wear?
1. Mainly studs: Our most popular standard-hole boards (our best-seller example here!) cater for studs, larger hoops (top and bottom of boards) and most hooks. We say most, because most hooks generally do, but there are some shepherd hooks around that are thick wired, are very stiff or have a sharp bend that may not fit. Our original boards aim to safely hold even the tiniest of studs and cater to various sizes of earring backs, so we've got a special hole size that works for the majority of our customers - you can place hooks across the top of the board if you only have a few, but please don't force or bend your earring in! Our standard boards were made so you can play Earring Tetris to find the best configuration for fitting your unique collection! Check out our instagram for some pictures of earrings on each of our boards or email us if you're unsure.
2. Only hooks: We have a Hook Holders too that have larger 5mm holes if you're exclusively into hooks, or want a complementary display for your regular board. Alternatively, the below styles will work for you too!
3. I have a mixture: If you prefer a mixture of earring types including studs, regular hooks, hoops, huggies, tight shepherd hooks, clip-ons etc., consider our Multi-Style Earring Holders (including the trademark Bunny-Nose style!). While our standard-hole holders do work well for most collections (they're our best sellers after all!), the Multi-Style holders have gaps in the board to allow for manoeuvring various styles, sharper hooks into place.
If you're unsure, we suggest going for the multi-style boards, but you can also check out our Instagram page to see what other customers use or send contact us!
How many pairs do you have?
Our Mini holders hold from 13-40 pairs if you fill every hole (less if you have larger earrings that cover the holes!). Our Mid holders are perfect for the everyday collection that might consist of some studs and larger earrings - they hold around 100 pairs. Mega holders are for the larger-style earrings or the earring obsessed! Due to the number of holes we can fit on our standard boards, these ones are able to hold the most (Megas can hold up to 234 pairs!).
HOT TIP: you will probably buy more earrings in your lifetime, so it's always great to cater for future purchases AND you'll probably have more earrings than you realise when you start to organise! Oh, the amount of customers who come back saying they didn't realise they had more!
Lastly, do you have dresser space?
Pick whether you'd like your holder on your dresser/bedside table. If you'd like a clutter-free space, a hanging holder is your best bet! We've included product measurements so you can work out what's best for your space.
Still unsure?
Check out customer images at www.instagram.com/bonmaxie for all the different types that fit into our holders.
How do I arrange my earrings?
Congratulations of your new addition! You're well on your way to eliminating accessory-mess stress! Here are a few quick tips to fast track your way there!
- place your smallest earrings at the top and working your way down the board, increasing in size
- arrange your earrings in themes or colours (we promise it will bring a sense of super-dooper earring calm and this will help you not double-up on colours/styles!)
- pop larger dangly earrings off the bottom rows of hanging holders to prevent them covering other holes or off the sides of Bunny-Nose Drop holders
- double your space and double up your hooks in the one hole of compatible boards (Multi-Styles/Hook Boards/Bunny-Nose)
OMG. Where are all the pictured earrings from?
Believe it order not, they don't all belong to Clare :) We love using customer pictures throughout the site to give you heaps of earlobe candy to drool over and stacks of earring brands can be found if you tap on images on our Insta page - www.instagram.com/bonmaxie. Alternatively, if you've got a specific earring you want, send us an email at email@example.com and Clare will employ her earring-brand-wizard-memory skills to work out where they're from!
Will my teenie tiny studs fall through the holes?
Our very original boards were hand drilled, which meant tiiiiny holes, but as we moved to machinery (and recovered from major RSI!), we were able to adjust the hole sizes.
We have kept the holes in our standard boards compatible with any earrings that are larger than 3mm (if they're any less, they probably wouldn't even stay in your earlobe!) to ensure tiny diamond or diamante earrings won't fall through! Please measure your earrings if you're unsure - perhaps a jewellery box might be safest for these ones.
Do your earring holders fit butterfly pinch pins?
Yes! So long as the post is no thicker than 3mm, these will fit into the holes! Our earring holder wood is 4mm so the post just needs to be longer than that to fit your clasp on the back.
Do your Standing Earring Holders come with the stands?
Yes! Sure do! We're working hard on figuring out how to make a Hovering Earring Holder, but in the meantime, we'll send you a stand with your Standing Earring Holder (you can opt to purchase a separate stand with your Hanging Earring Holder for two display options).
Can you giftwrap my order?
We don't offer giftwrapping services at this stage.

So… since I last posted I have made the rather huge decision to accept the offer of the housing transfer. I went with my Mum to view it for a second time on Friday afternoon and then had an hour to give them a final decision as they are closed over the weekend and if I didn't want to take it then it would be offered to someone else on Monday. I felt massively under pressure and I still don't know if I am doing the right thing but after an appointment with CPN#2 on Friday morning and talking things through with her I decided I do need to get out of this flat I'm in. There are memories everywhere I look and a huge amount of them are bad ones. But, as lovely support worker said to me on Thursday "the memories that you need to keep you will keep in your heart and no matter where you are living they will always stay with you" and I hope so much she is right.
The appointment with CPN#2 on Friday was one I'd actually go so far as to say it was 'semi' productive. Yes she asked what items I wanted to put on "the agenda" for the session which as you all know drives me mad… but for once I actually had things I wanted to talk about. I knew I'd have lots to say about the housing transfer so decided to make it our second thing on the agenda and first of all discuss the recent letter from the psychologist. I told CPN#2 that I'd felt a mix of emotions when I received the letter, initially I felt hopeful as I read the words that I was now at the top of the waiting list and the psychologist was now in a position to offer me an appointment… but then as I carried on reading and saw she was only able to offer me 4 sessions due to going on maternity leave in March I felt pretty gutted. I chose my words carefully and said to CPN#2 "I'm assuming you only recently found out yourself that the psychologist is pregnant again as I'm sure you wouldn't have left me hanging on waiting for my sessions to resume with her knowing she was pregnant and knowing that's why I had to stop working with her last time"… I looked out the window as I said it and CPN#2 didn't say yes or no… she just left me to carry on talking.
I'm now quite sure CPN#2 probably has known for at least a month if not a couple of months and that was possibly my way of making a little dig at her to let her know that I knew she knew. But I kept myself composed and said that whilst I wished the psychologist all the best with her pregnancy, I really felt like I would find it extremely difficult to spend January and February watching her huge bump whilst also spending January and the start of February trying to keep myself mentally strong enough to get through my little one's 7th anniversary. CPN#2 said that she understood and was sure the psychologist would understand as well. I told her I felt a little bit deflated after being on the waiting list since May and to finally be offered an appointment then not be able to take it. Again, I'm not really sure if we would have achieved much in four sessions anyway, but now it looks like I'm going to be waiting considerably longer. CPN#2 told me that they had been advertising the post for a replacement psychologist for a while (this is why I'm sure she clearly has known for a while that the psychologist was pregnant again yet kept telling me just to hang on as I was getting closer to the top of the list) but unfortunately they've had very little interest in the post so far. She went on to say that it was not looking very likely that they will have a new psychologist in post by March and I'd most likely be in for a long wait. So just as I felt like she couldn't make me feel much more deflated she actually surprised me and said that she thought I really did need psychological input and was going to ask the psychologist if it would be possible for me to be referred to a different psychology team. Basically it is the team located at the psych hospital about 90 minutes from where I live and they offer an outpatient service so CPN#2 is going to speak with the psychologist and see if they could refer me there instead. I don't know that I'd be overly keen in being back in the grounds of the psych hospital or having to travel 90 mins there and back each week/fortnight but I guess if they could start seeing me in the next couple of months it would be better than waiting for God only knows how long to see a psychologist here. So that was the end of that conversation and I guess I can only hope for good news the next time I see CPN#2 that they are going to make the referral.
After that conversation was over with we started talking about all of the pros and cons of moving house. I talked about everything that scares me about leaving my flat behind and moving onto somewhere new but CPN#2 kept pulling me back to the positives of it all. She sat for about ten minutes painting this lovely scene of me waking up on Christmas morning with my little doggies bouncing around on my bed playing with their new toys… me getting out of my bed and being able to open my back door whilst still in my pyjamas and let them out to the garden… relaxing in a nice hot bath and getting ready to see all my family… peace and quiet around me, no noisy neighbours… getting the doggies and my presents and just having a five minute walk round to my parents house… talking almost like the way they do on hypnotherapy cd's and I wanted so so much to feel this happy relaxing scene she was painting but in my head all I could see was me being in my flat. She then started to talk about how I needed to try and separate my anxiety associated with my "illness" and normal anxiety. That moving house was stressful for everyone who does it and it was normal for me to be having all these doubts but that she really thinks I need to leave this flat now and start afresh.
So I left the appointment with CPN#2 and came home and got the dogs and went for a long walk with them for an hour and tried to get my head straight. Then Mum came and picked me up and we went for the second viewing of the house. There is a lot of work that needs doing in it. The whole place needs completely repainted, the walls are going to need sanding down as someone has obviously put some plaster on to cover up little cracks but not bothered to smooth it out so there are big bumpy bits all over the walls. The ceilings and skirting boards need painting too. The flooring isn't in a very good condition but I think I'm going to take my flooring from this flat and have it re-laid in the house as the rooms are slightly smaller than in here so it should fit. So after twenty minutes or so of viewing it I said yes I would accept it and we then went to the housing office for me to sign the acceptance forms. I have an appointment at 3pm tomorrow to collect the keys and sign the tenancy agreement. Then we had to go to the housing association from whom I currently rent my flat and was told I have to give them a 28 day notice period that I am ending my tenancy here which is a pain as we then had to go to the housing benefit office who have said that they will only pay the rent on one property at a time so I'm going to have to try and move as quickly as possible… ideally within a week as I will have to pay the rent on the new property out of my own pocket until I hand the keys back for this flat. But Mum said not to worry about that and that she and my Dad would pay a week or two's rent for me.
So tomorrow it's all going to start feeling real. Once I have the keys Mum and I are going to spend a few hours in the new house cleaning it all. I also need to phone a couple of removal companies tomorrow and get quotes from them to see how much it is going to cost to move all my heavy stuff like furniture and electrical appliances. Then on Tuesday I will need to contact my gas and electricity companies and arrange to have pre-payment meters installed in the new house. I also need to go to the post office and get a form to arrange to have all my mail redirected for a month or two to give me the chance to contact everyone to notify them of my change of address. I also need to phone and arrange to have my phone line and broadband moved. Then I need to start packing all the things that can go into boxes that I can move with the help of the parents. I feel like I have sooo much to do and to be honest I'm finding it all quite overwhelming and scary… I'm so thankful I do have my parents to help me with all of this because I think I would have fallen to pieces by now if I had to try and do it all by myself.
Plus I have less than two weeks to write and submit my two final essays for this term which I had intended to try and make a start on this weekend but I went to an engagement party last night and had a little bit too much to drink and have been suffering for it all day today. My own fault but never mind… I'm sure I'll get them done. Sometimes I feel like I work better when I'm under pressure with a deadline fast approaching as I have no choice but to just study and write and study and write until it's done. Maybe not my best work but so long as I scrape a pass that is all I really care about. I may just get my phone line moved and study from my parents house whilst they're at work using their internet… at least I don't have any distractions there and should be able to get my head down and get some work done.
So the next couple of weeks are going to be crazy, hectic and super busy but hopefully in a fortnight's time I will be fully moved, essays done and on my Christmas break from the uni course and able to relax and get the rest of my Christmas shopping done. I'm hoping and praying that I am doing the right thing and won't regret leaving this flat as once I leave I can never get it back… that's it gone for good to become someone else's home. And that really does throw up a whole mix of emotions for me. Whilst I need that fresh start I will also be very sad and probably quite emotional when the day comes that I'm sleeping here for the very last night. I have a feeling I am going to just sit here completely consumed with so many memories of the past 7 and a half years jumping into my head. But I am trying to trust my instincts and the words of advice other people are giving me and I do need a blank canvas to start creating new memories in… a new place to build into my home… right now it might just be 'a house' but I can make it 'a home' eventually I'm sure.
Big, scary adult decisions… argh!
Well I think 2000 words of rambling is quiet enough! I can't quite believe that this time tomorrow I will be sitting here with the keys to my new house. It's all happened so fast I just hope I can keep up and it doesn't start going too fast that I get myself all into a big mess.
Deep breaths… keep calm… think of the positives… and when it all starts feeling overwhelming take a couple of Diazepam, try to be mindful and try to calm down… I guess that's all I can do
Scared just doesn't cut it. But I keep telling myself I'm only getting the keys tomorrow, I'm not moving tomorrow, I won't be moving for at least a week yet, the more time I spend round at the new house getting it looking nicer the more familiar it will become and the more comfortable I will be when the official moving day comes around. I bet this last week of living here is going to fly by.
Another chapter of my life closing and another empty one just beginning…

Lab Reports
Antarctica's Cold Data on Climate Change
Mary Albert, an adjunct professor at Thayer School and senior research engineer at the U.S. Army's Cold Regions Research and Engineering Lab in Hanover, is the lead U.S. partner on a Norwegian research expedition investigating climate and glaciology in East Antarctica. The project is one of more than 200 encompassed by the International Polar Year (IPY), a research program that began in March 2007 and will continue through March 2009. In late October Albert, chair of the U.S. Committee to the IPY from 2003 to 2005, joined the rest of the team in Queen Maud Land, Antarctica. On November 16 they set off on their traverse of the East Antarctic Plateau.
The plateau is part of the vast East Antarctic Ice Sheet. The route for the trek is from Troll Station, a permanent Norwegian research station located halfway between the coast and the plateau, to the United States South Pole Station — a distance of some 1,740 miles. In addition to traveling through previously unsampled areas, the team is revisiting sites investigated in the 1960s. Their objective is to collect ice cores for later analysis and to study the physical and chemical properties of snow and firn (old snow) within shallow snow pits — all to advance our understanding of climate variability within East Antarctica and its role in the global climate system.
To develop historical temperature profiles, the research team will conduct isotopic analysis of the ice and firn cores drilled at different locations on the plateau. Albert is measuring the air permeability, thermal conductivity, density, and microstructures within snow and firn stratigraphy. By comparing these data with those from other expeditions carried out since 1999 under the International Transantarctic Scientific Expedition program (consisting of 21 member countries), the team will be able to map climate history and climate patterns over the past 200-300 years.
At Thayer School Albert acts as thesis advisor to graduate and undergraduate students.
Smart Helmet Detects Brain Trauma
Simbex LLC, founded by adjunct associate engineering professor Richard Greenwald Th'88 and adjunct professor emeritus Robert Dean, recently expanded its head-impact biomechanics testing arena from the athletic field to the battlefield.
The Head Impact Telemetry (HIT) System™ is a biomechanical feedback system that measures the magnitude and severity of head impacts related to mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). Sensors installed in the helmet measure and record the linear and rotational acceleration of the head following an impact. The data can be transmitted wirelessly to a laptop computer on the sidelines, which calculates all the key biomechanical elements of impact for later analysis.
The HIT System, incorporated into commercially available Riddell football helmets, has been tested extensively on high school and college football fields. Time magazine hailed it as one of the "Best Inventions of 2007" (see Kudos).
In April, Simbex, in partnership with researchers from Dartmouth Medical School and the athletics departments of Dartmouth, Brown, and Virginia Tech, was awarded a $3.6 million Bioengineering Research Partnership grant from the National Center for Medical Rehabilitation Research at the National Institutes of Health (N.I.H.).
More recently, the U.S. Army asked Simbex to test the technology for use on the battlefield.
The most common mTBIs in the current U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are those caused by improvised explosive devices (IEDs). IED shock waves travel at around 1,000 feet per second, almost as fast as the speed of sound. Shrapnel bouncing off a helmet can rattle the brain's soft tissue and cause invisible but permanent damage. Such injuries often go unnoticed until the soldier begins experiencing short-term memory problems or undergoes a change in attitude. The Army has requested technology that can record the biomechanics of head trauma received in combat and provide data for medical staff to quickly analyze the extent of brain injury so that soldiers can get the treatment necessary to return them fit for military or civilian life.
The instrumented combat helmet employs eight accelerometers with high bandwidth so that both high magnitude and high frequency impacts can be recorded. A pressure transducer measures changes caused by shock waves. Should the army decide to implement HIT technology for widescale battlefield use, Simbex will redesign the data collection system to be compatible with existing technologies currently used in army bases, such as hand-held scanners employed by medics in the field.
Simbex also recently received N.I.H. grants for rehabilitation product development, including their fall-risk assessment and fall prevention training system, an in-shoe monitoring system for children with cerebral palsy, and a novel orthopedic implant to improve prosthesis fit and overall comfort and stability for lower-limb amputees.
Over the years, a number of B.E. and M.E.M. students have worked with Simbex engineers to improve design and testing of the different systems; some of those students have gone on to become Simbex employees.

When migrating to the server I took the old data from Google, made a spreadsheet with all the data, inserted the proper options to create everything command line..
Code: Select all
zmprov < distro-aliases.txt
and similar for all the initial provisioning.
As far as I can tell, everything worked except aliases for distribution lists.
They created without errors (tested running a couple lines manually from the txt files before doing all of them), but they don't work.
In the GUI,
Hovering over one with the mouse shows the info box shows Status: Known error
Using the GUI, I delete the aliases for a distribution list, save, then add them back, save again. The Distribution Lists list still shows the Unknown Error. If I go back to the distribution list aliases and try and delete the alias again, when I push Save this time it shows Invalid Request. Clicking Details:
Invalid request
Message: invalid request: zimbraIsACLGroup is immutable Error code: service.INVALID_REQUEST Method: [unknown] Details:soap:Sender
What am I missing?
Two other questions.. What do I need to do to enable using Tab to go between fields when entering Aliases? And what do I need to change to enable highlighting text in the Zimbra GUI? I can not highlight the name of the distribution list I am currently working on, when editing a distribution list, but this happens in a lot of places.

1. Make it easy for customers.
Help your site's visitors to complete their objectives. They may want to be entertained by your blog posts, get your restaurant's address, or check reviews on your products. Walgreens GVP and Chief Technology Officer of eCommerce, Abhi Dhar, explains, "Our goal with everything we do on mobile is to make our customers' lives easier."
Design your site to help make it easier for your customer to complete their most common tasks: from task conception, to visiting your site, to task completion.Outline the potential steps in your customers' journey to make sure the steps are easy to complete on a mobile device. Try to streamline the experience and reduce the number of user interactions. In this example: (1) the customer clicks on a site after searching for lamps to buy; (2) browses through a selection of lamps; and (3) purchases the desired lamp.
2. Measure the effectiveness of your website by how easily mobile customers can complete common tasks.
Making a mobile site requires prioritization. Start by working out what the most important and common tasks are for your customers on mobile. Being able to support these tasks is critical and this is why the measure of your mobile site is how well customers can complete their objectives. There are ways to make the design of your site support ease of use too. Focus on consistency in your interface and providing an unified experience across platforms.
"Mobile shoppers put ease of use foremost when it comes to mobile shopping sites, with 48% of respondents citing it as the most important quality of a mobile site they visit, " cites MediaPost.
3. Select a mobile template, theme, or design that's consistent for all devices (i.e., use responsive web design).
"Responsive web design" or RWD means that the page uses the same URL and the same code whether the user is on a desktop computer, tablet, or mobile phone – only the display adjusts or "responds" according to the screen size. Google recommends using RWD over other design patterns. One of the benefits of RWD is that you'll only need to maintain one version of your site instead of two (i.e., you won't need to maintain the desktop site at and the mobile version at m.example.com – you'll maintain only one site, such as for desktop and mobile visitors).A responsive site adjusts the display to various screen sizes while using the same URL and code. All three devices above use than the mobile page at m.example.com, the tablet page at t.example.com, etc.).
"Using RWD enabled Baines & Ernst to optimise its site experience across different screen sizes without creating multiple websites. They noticed that visitors visited 11% more pages on their site per visit and mobile conversions grew by 51%."
"Conversions" happen when a customer performs a desired action, such as buying products, calling the business, or signing-up for a newsletter.
For details on how to implement responsive web design, see the developer content at Web Fundamentals. If you'd like to weigh the pros and cons of different implementations for mobile, tablet, and desktop websites, read Building Websites for the Multi-Screen Consumer.
Mistake 1 - Forgetting their mobile customer.
Remember that good mobile sites are useful – they help visitors complete their tasks, whether that's reading an interesting article or checking your store's location. Don't get caught in the trap of only creating a mobile-formatted site (one that looks pretty on mobile) because it stripped away all useful functionality. Instead, remember to build a mobile-friendly site (one that's truly useful for mobile customers and optimized for customers most common tasks).
Mistake 2 - Implementing the mobile site on a different domain, subdomain, or subdirectory from the desktop site.
While Google supports multiple mobile site configurations, creating separate mobile URLs greatly increases the amount of work required to maintain and update your site, and introduces possible sources of technical problems. You can often simplify things significantly by using responsive web design (RWD) and serving desktop and mobile on the same URL! Responsive web design is Google's recommended configuration.
Mistake 3 - Working in isolation rather than looking around for inspiration.
Check out other sites in your space or your competitors for inspiration and best practices. While you may not be the first in your industry with a mobile site, you have the benefit of being able to learn from those before you. The Mobile Playbook and Google Multi-screen Success Stories are also full of ideas.
What should I think about when working with a developer?
Follow the following steps to ensure a good outcome when working with a developer to build your mobile-friendly site.
1. Ask to see your developer's references and portfolio of mobile websites.
Ask if your developer has experience with responsive web design (RWD). If you have a desktop-only site, inquire whether your developer has transitioned a desktop site to a responsive site. Check out other sites they have built. Talk to their references and prior customers to see how they feel about your developer. You can use tools like Google's PageSpeed Insights to look at a developer's portfolio. PageSpeed Insights highlights factors that hinder a page's speed or hurt a page's usability.
2. Make sure your developer understands your mobile customer.
Tell the developer about your business and provide him/her with the most common tasks you want optimized on the mobile site. Make sure that they develop a site that supports the functionality that mobile customers need.
3. Ask your developer to make a commitment to speed.
Don't make customers wait too long for your pages to load in their browser. Ask if your developer is aware of PageSpeed Insights (the tool above) and if they're familiar with techniques to help pages load faster. Your contract can include pages "rendering" as fast as your competitors according to

Dog Crashes and Completes Half Marathon [VIDEO]
Dozer, a three year-old golden doodle, ran most of the Maryland Half Marathon last week.
Unbeknownst to his owners, Dozer broke free of his electric fence and joined up with the road race when its participants ran past his front yard -- which sat at about the five mile mark of the half marathon.
Dozer kept pace with the 2,000 runners for the next eight miles, crossing the finishing line with an official time of 2:12:24.
Then, after he was done racing, Dozer did what all the other runners did and returned home.
For his effort, Dozer got a precautionary trip to the vet (he checked out just fine), a medal from the race's organizers, and his very own page on the Maryland Half Mile Marathon website.
Read on to see a video of Dozer crossing the finish line, and another of him receiving his medal.

Insurance council totals cost of freeze
Frozen water pipes caused approximately $70 million damage to about 10,000 Texas homes, according to the Insurance Council of Texas, an industry group.
The average claim was about $9,000 in North Texas and $5,000 in the Central and South Texas.
"I think the damage was fairly limited because Texans had plenty of notice that a hard freeze was coming our way," said Mark Hanna, a spokesman for the council. "Obviously, taking a few minutes to protect your home from freezing temperatures is worth it."
The freeze last week sent overnight temperatures in the Houston area into the teens and low 20s. According to the National Weather Service, Dalhart in the Panhandle got down to minus-2, Junction bottomed out at 8, Austin reached 10 and even Brownsville's mercury plunged to 28.

FTC fines notorious adware firm $3m
Posted in The Channel, 3rd November 2006 20:05 GMT
The company formerly known as 180Solutions has been fined $3m for using drive-by downloads to smuggle adware on the PCs of unwary Americans and for offering no way to remove the software.
Now called Zango, the adware firm has promised the Federal Trade Commission that it will ask consumers first before injecting software into their PCs. And it will provide the means for people to remove the hateful software from their computers.
That could be a lot of people. According to the FTC, Zango/180Solutions software has been downloaded on American computers more than 70 million times and has pumped out more than 6.9 billion pop-up ads. Much of Zango's 'success' was down to rogue affiliates, who tempted consumers with offers of free software and then downloaded Zango software without their knowledge onto their computers.
Canned quote time from Lydia Parnes, director of the FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection. "Consumers' computers belong to them, and they shouldn't have to accept any content they don't want. If consumers choose to receive pop-up ads, so be it. But it violates federal law to secretly install software that forces consumers to get pop-ups that disrupt their computer use."
