Volume 75, Issue 12 Smithfield, RI February 15, 2008 The flu hits hard this season Compiled by John Crisafulli Assistant Editor-in-Chief You may have noticed a number of empty seats in your classes this week. Better yet, you may have even had a few classes cancelled. Well, if you have not already heard, the flu has made its temporary home at Bryant University and it is taking over the neighborhood. With over a hundred students and numerous faculty members affected, it is important to know how to protect yourself and others from getting sick. Health Services released the following information in a mass e-mail earlier this week. Influenza viruses are spread when a person who has the flu coughs, sneezes, or speaks and spreads virus into the air and other people inhale the virus. When these viruses enter the nose, throat, or lungs of another person, they begin to multiply, causing symptoms of the flu. The viruses can also be spread when a person touches a surface with flu viruses on it (for example, a door handle) and then touches his or her nose or mouth. A person who is sick with the flu can spread the virus and is contagious from one day before developing symptoms to up to seven days after getting sick. Children can be contagious for longer than seven days. Don’t know if you have the flu? Common symptoms include: * Fever (usually high), * Headache * Extreme tiredness * Dry cough * Sore throat * Runny or stuffy nose * Muscle aches * Gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea are much more common among children than adults Courtesy of MCT Campus Health Services suggests the following ways to stay healthy during the flu season: Influenza (say: in-FLOO-en-zah) is also called the flu.

Spending a few hours at Fenway Park is good for the soul. The ballpark is totally silent. The mound and home plate are covered by tarps and the foul lines aren’t drawn yet, but it feels as if there still could be a game played today. The sun’s warmth reflecting off The Wall feels good. The tug of the past is all around but the future is the great unknown. In Fenway, zoom is still a word to describe a Chris Sale fastball, not a video conferencing app. Old friend Terry Francona and the Cleveland Indians would have been here this weekend and there would’ve been big hugs by the batting cage and the rhythmic crack of bat meeting ball. But now gaining access is nearly impossible and includes health questions and safety precautions and a Fenway security escort. Visitors must wear a respiratory mask, gloves, and practice social distancing, larger than the lead Dave Roberts got on Mariano Rivera in the 2004 ALCS. Carissa Unger of Green City Growers in Somerville is planting organic vegetables for Fenway Farms, located on the rooftop of the park. She is one of the few allowed into the ballpark. The harvest this year all will be donated to a local food pantry.

  • Once Again, the Behavior That Yeshua Singles out Is Undoubtedly That

    Once Again, the Behavior That Yeshua Singles out Is Undoubtedly That

    [2:12–13] 91 says to his brother, ‘You good-for-nothing,’ shall be guilty be- fore the supreme court; and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell. (Matt 5:21–22) Once again, the behavior that Yeshua singles out is undoubtedly that which characterizes a person who has never repented of their sin but has lived a life of “hating their neighbor.” But the severity of Yesh- ua’s words here should well remind us how important it is to treat one another within the body of Messiah with love, caring, and compassion. Obviously, such compassion may also involve confrontation and seek- ing to turn someone from a wayward path in life back to living in a way that truly honors Yeshua. As those who have been drawn by the Lord to honor Him by obey- ing His Torah, we must take these admonitions seriously. Let us com- mit ourselves to loving one another in spirit and in truth, that our Mes- siah Yeshua would be honored and that the world would know that we are His disciples. By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. (Jn 13:35) 12–13 So speak and so act as those who are to be judged by the law of liberty. For judgment will be merciless to one who has shown no mercy; mercy triumphs over judgment. These verses offer the conclusion to James’ teaching in this peri- cope, encompassing the entire first section of the chapter, i.e., 2:1–11.

  • Aaron Boone Walks Into Perfect Job As Next New York Yankees Manager

    Aaron Boone Walks Into Perfect Job As Next New York Yankees Manager

    Aaron Boone Walks into Perfect Job as Next New York Yankees Manager Author : Aaron Boone is going from former New York Yankees postseason hero to New York Yankees manager. The news came down on Friday night that the longtime third baseman will become the next Yankees manager for the 2018 season; succeeding Joe Girardi, who parted ways with the team after 10 years in the Bronx. While Boone is a long-time former player, he's stepping onto the bench for the first time as a coach in any kind of capacity; he's spent the last several years as a broadcaster for ESPN, working the Sunday Night Baseball games. The 44-year-old Boone is certainly no stranger to the Yankee fan base, as he hit one of the most memorable home runs in postseason history. In Game 7 of the 2003 ALCS, Boone broke a 5-5 tie in the bottom of the 11th inning and cracked a solo home run to left field off Tim Wakefield and helped send the Yankees to the World Series by beating the Boston Red Sox. Boone's time with the Yankees as a player wasn't very long; he broke his leg playing a pickup game of 1 / 2 basketball; an injury that led to the trade of Alex Rodriguez in February of 2004. But his impact from hitting a memorable postseason home run was forever made. When you get a major hit or home run as a member of the Yankees in the playoffs, that creates a legacy that lasts forever and is remembered for a long time.

Inscription: lower right: A. Douglas '39 Patrons' Permanent Fund, The Avalon Fund 2014.135.1 ENTRY Aaron Douglas spent his formative years in the Midwest. Born and raised in Topeka, Kansas, he attended a segregated elementary school and an integrated high school before entering the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. In 1922 he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in fine arts, and the following year he accepted a teaching position at Lincoln High School, an elite black institution in Kansas City. Word of Douglas’s talent and ambition soon reached influential figures in New York including Charles Spurgeon Johnson (1893–1956), one of the founders of the New Negro movement. [1] Johnson instructed his secretary, Ethel Nance, to write to the young artist encouraging him to come east (“Better to be a dishwasher in New York than to be head of a high school in Kansas City"). [2] In the spring of 1925, after two years of teaching, Douglas resigned his position and began the journey that would place him at the center of the burgeoning cultural movement later known as the Harlem Renaissance. [3] Douglas arrived in New York three months after an important periodical, Survey Graphic, published a special issue titled Harlem: Mecca of the New Negro. [4] A landmark publication, the issue included articles by key members of the New Negro movement: Charles S.
