Wells –formerly Wilson – Lincoln Varsity team was Oregon State Champion in 2008, 2010, 2011 and again in 2012 2 Basics of the Game ■ Offense uses movement, passing, shooting, dodging to score goals ■ Game is played in each half of the field as a 6 on 6 + a goalie (half field set – 3 Middies, 3 Attack vs 3 Middies, 3 Defense, 1 Goalie) ■ Can only have 6 players on the offensive side of field at a time ■ Play is usually run by 4 quarters or 2 halfs ■ Play begins with a face off at the center and resumes with a face off after each score (technically one team may possess the ball the entire game) ■ Players can move behind the goal (usually a great place to attack the goal from) – known as the X ■ Grades 3/4: 6v6 (w/ Goalie) – shortened cross-field ■ Grades 1/2: 3v3, 4v4, 6v6 (no Goalie) – shortened cross-field, smaller goal 3 Basic Field Layout and Dimensions 4 Objectives and Concepts ■ Lacrosse uses motion and off-ball movement to create good shot opportunities (motion is similar to that of basketball) ■ Fastest game on two feet – can’t be fast if standing still! ■ Cuts and dodges create space for passing, receiving, or to free hand space for a shot ■ Transition offense or defense is important in lacrosse (fast breaks) ■ Team that wins the most ground balls, and face offs – usually will win the game ■ Cutting, pick and rolls, give and go, and dodges on and away from ball create confusion for the defense and allow the offense to attack. ■ Defense uses man to man or zone defenses 5 X A1 D1 GLE G A3 D3 D2 A2 D4 M1 Ally D5 D6 M3 M2 Point 6 Watching Lacrosse College Premier Lacrosse League ■ NCAA Division I, II, III ■ 8 Team, Travelling league ■ MCLA Clubs, e.g. Oregon, Oregon St ■ June 4th – September 19 ■ Games broadcast on Espn ■ Games broadcast on Peacock U/Espn+, ACC Network, BigTen Premium/NBC Network, Webcast ■ https://premierlacrosseleague.com ■ InsideLacrosse Calendar ■ Portland?

  • Archons (Commanders) [NOTICE: They Are NOT Anlien Parasites], and Then, in a Mirror Image of the Great Emanations of the Pleroma, Hundreds of Lesser Angels
    A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES WATCH THIS IMPORTANT VIDEO UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact MUST-SEE THE OCCULT REASON FOR PSYCHOPATHY Organic Portals: Aliens and Psychopaths KNOWLEDGE THROUGH GNOSIS Boris Mouravieff - GNOSIS IN THE BEGINNING ...1 The Gnostic core belief was a strong dualism: that the world of matter was deadening and inferior to a remote nonphysical home, to which an interior divine spark in most humans aspired to return after death. This led them to an absorption with the Jewish creation myths in Genesis, which they obsessively reinterpreted to formulate allegorical explanations of how humans ended up trapped in the world of matter. The basic Gnostic story, which varied in details from teacher to teacher, was this: In the beginning there was an unknowable, immaterial, and invisible God, sometimes called the Father of All and sometimes by other names. “He” was neither male nor female, and was composed of an implicitly finite amount of a living nonphysical substance. Surrounding this God was a great empty region called the Pleroma (the fullness). Beyond the Pleroma lay empty space. The God acted to fill the Pleroma through a series of emanations, a squeezing off of small portions of his/its nonphysical energetic divine material. In most accounts there are thirty emanations in fifteen complementary pairs, each getting slightly less of the divine material and therefore being slightly weaker. The emanations are called Aeons (eternities) and are mostly named personifications in Greek of abstract ideas.

  • Effects on College Outcomes by Race/Ethnicity and Course Modality
    High School Dual Enrollment in Florida: Effects on College Outcomes by Race/Ethnicity and Course Modality Summary Research Report Vivian Yuen Ting Liu CCRC Veronica Minaya CCRC Qing Zhang University of California, Irvine Di Xu University of California, Irvine October 2020 Address correspondence to: Vivian Yuen Ting Liu Postdoctoral Research Associate Community College Research Center Teachers College, Columbia University 525 W. 120th St., Box 174 New York, NY 10027 212-678-3091 Email: [email protected] Funding for this study was provided by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The findings and conclusions contained within are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect positions or policies of the foundation. Abstract This report presents findings on the relationship between taking community college dual enrollment courses—in which high school students earn high school and college credits simultaneously—and college outcomes among Florida public high school students. It analyses dual enrollment course-taking by racial/ethnic group (Black, Hispanic, White) and course modality (face-to-face on-college-campus, face-to-face off- campus, and online). The report includes (1) a descriptive analysis of the demographic characteristics and outcomes of dual enrollment participants and (2) multivariate regression analyses of the associations between dual enrollment participation and college outcomes, controlling for a rich set of student and school characteristics. The analyses use transcript-level unit record data on two cohorts of Florida students who started public high school in 2007 and 2012 and were tracked through high school and into Florida state colleges (community colleges) and universities. We find that Florida high school students who took dual enrollment courses were more likely to be White, female, and from more affluent backgrounds than those who did not take dual enrollment courses.

  • High School Dual Enrollment Effects on College Outcomes by Race/Ethnicity and Course Modality
    High School Dual Enrollment Effects on College Outcomes by Race/Ethnicity and Course Modality A CCRC study of dual enrollment in Florida finds that while there are substantial participation gaps by race/ethnicity, Black, Hispanic, and White high school students all appear to benefit from taking dual enrollment courses. The vast majority of dual enrollment students enroll in such courses through community colleges, and most students take dual enrollment courses face-to-face on a college campus or face-to-face off-campus, though some students (about 9%) take the courses primarily online. Using descriptive and multivariable regression analysis, CCRC researchers examined the college outcomes of Florida public high school students (who were 9th graders in 2007 and 2012) who did and did not take dual enrollment courses. Although the researchers controlled for a rich set of student and school characteristics, their analysis does not allow for causal inferences. Key Findings Participation Rates PARTICIPATION Dual enrollment students were substantially more likely to be White and female and to not participate in free or reduced- price lunch (FRPL) than students who did not participate in dual enrollment. COLLEGE OUTCOMES Taking dual enrollment courses is positively associated with better college outcomes—including immediate college enrollment and degree completion— across all three racial/ethnic groups. However, White dual enrollment students were more likely to attend both community colleges (called state colleges in Florida) and state universities than their White non-dual enrollment peers, whereas Black and Hispanic dual enrollment students were more likely to attend only state universities compared with their non-dual enrollment peers.
