  • 2020-21 Championships Eligibility in Sports Other Than Basketball Or Football
    2020-21 Championships Eligibility in Sports Other than Basketball or Football Overview. The NCAA Division I Council approved a blanket waiver on October 14, 2020, which stated, for the 2020-21 academic year, institutions are not required to meet sports sponsorship minimums, provided the institution intended to sponsor the requisite number of sports (and so indicated on the Sports Sponsorship and Demographic Survey) and is unable to do so due to COVID-19 scheduling challenges. This action includes a waiver of the requirements of NCAA Bylaw 20.9.6.3 (minimum contests and participants requirements for sports sponsorship) for sports sponsorship purposes. On June 17, the Council approved a one-year waiver of Bylaw 31.3.4.1 (requirements to be eligible for automatic qualification in a championship); therefore, a conference has complete autonomy to determine its automatic qualifier for a division championship for the 2020-21 academic year. Additionally, the Council approved a one-year waiver of the six-institution requirement for automatic qualification consideration for multisport conferences (Bylaw 31.3.4.4.1) and single sport conferences (Bylaw 31.3.4.4.2) for fall and winter sports only. Accordingly, in fall and winter sports, a minimum of three institutions must participate in conference competition together (e.g., regular season in-conference competition, conference tournament). The conference must forward notification of its automatic qualifier selection process to the applicable sport committee at least two weeks prior to the NCAA championship selection date in that sport. For the 2020-21 academic year, the NCAA Division I Competition Oversight Committee waived the .500 rule for fall, winter and spring sports, which normally requires teams to have overall won- lost records of .500 or better for at-large selections.

  • Stoicism at War: from Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius to James Stockdale
    Konrad Banicki Jagiellonian University, Cracow, Poland Institute of Applied Psychology STOICISM AT WAR: FROM EPICTETUS AND MARCUS AURELIUS TO JAMES STOCKDALE Abstract The chapter is devoted to the analysis of ancient Stoic philosophy as a source of resil- ience for soldiers. Firstly, some historical cases are investigated, from a Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius to more recent instances from Vietnam and Iraq. Secondly, in turn, the Epictetus’ distinction between the controllable and the uncontrollable is introduced with the focus on the prescription to assign value only to the former as the Stoic source of resilience. Finally, some further questions are briefly addressed including the ones concerning the sources of the Stoicism’s appeal to the soldiers, its more particular ap- plications as well as the potential drawbacks of the Stoic resilience. Key words: resilience, stoicism, soldiers, Marcus Aurelius, James Stockdale Stoicyzm na wojnie. Od Epikteta i Marka Aureliusza do Jamesa Stockdale’a Streszczenie Rozdział poświęcony jest analizie starożytnej filozofii stoickiej jako źródła sprężysto- ści psychicznej (resilience) dla żołnierzy. Po przedstawieniu historycznych przykładów żołnierskich odwołań do stoicyzmu, od rzymskiego cesarza Marka Aureliusza do uczest- ników wojen w Wietnamie i Iraku, wprowadzona zostaje stoicka koncepcja Epikteta. W szczególności sformułowane przez niego rozróżnienie na to, co podlega naszej kon- troli, oraz to, co jej nie podlega, a także nacisk na przypisywanie wartości jedynie temu pierwszemu zostają przedstawione

  • Annual Report of the Town of Raymond, New Hampshire
    The Raymond Community Stewardship Committee Caretakers & Facilitators Of The Vision For The Future Established in July, 1992 by the Board of Selectmen as a permanent advisory committee of the Town of Raymond, our fifteen-member group of volunteers accepted a formidable challenge with enthusiasm. We are made up of eleven members at-large, plus one representative each from the Board of Selectmen, the Planning Board, the Conservation Commission, and the Raymond Industrial Development Corporation. As charged by the Selectmen, we are "to provide an orderly forum to discuss and consider matters that affect the town's public image, historic heritage, community spirit and public facilities planning." In addition, we are "to identify ways the town can leverage its assets to attract desirable business and industry in order to broaden its tax base." Formation of the committee grew out of Raymond's participation in the 1991 Governor's Commission on the 21st Century. Raymond was one of two communities chosen by the Office of State Planning to help the Commission develop a process and set of planning tools that could be used by communities state-wide, and that would enable them to direct the location, character and timing of their future development in order to 1.) conserve important natural resources, 2.) promote economic growth, and 3.) maintain the "rural" atmosphere that makes New Hampshire living so desirable. In January of '92 a series of intensely productive meetings took place between Raymond citizens and a Task Force of State Planning Officials and private-sector volunteers with expertise in banking, real estate, architecture, landscaping, conservation, the environment and historic preservation.

    Nature Physics advance online publication, 8 October 2013 doi:10.1038/nphys2800 Research Highlight Nobel Prize 2013: Englert and Higgs Alison Wright The Nobel Prize in Physics 2013 has been awarded to François Englert and Peter Higgs "for the theoretical discovery of a mechanism that contributes to our understanding of the origin of mass of subatomic particles, and which recently was confirmed through the discovery of the predicted fundamental particle, by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at CERN's Large Hadron Collider". It is probably the most widely anticipated Nobel award ever made — even as the announcement on 8 October was delayed by an hour, it still seemed certain that the prize would be given for what is generally known as the Higgs mechanism, cemented by the discovery of a Higgs boson at CERN last year. The only uncertainty lay in quite who would claim a slice of the prize. In 1964, François Englert and his colleague Robert Brout published a paper1 in Physical Review Letters in which they outlined a possible mechanism for the generation of particle masses. A few weeks later — in a world without e-mail or preprint servers — Peter Higgs published a similar, independent work2, and also mentioned the existence of a particle associated with the postulated field that would provoke the mass-generating mechanism. (These have since been known as the Higgs boson, the Higgs field and the Higgs mechanism.) And just a few weeks later still, Gerald Guralnik, Carl Hagen and Tom Kibble followed up with their own, independent, version3 of the same mechanism.
