This Thursday, Southern Oregon University’s 2012 football team will be the subject of a documentary film. The poster around town advertising the premier of “Team of Firsts” features the above photo which I took last fall.
If you would like to attend the premier on February 21, 2013, head on down to Ashland Street Cinema on Thursday. The movie, produced by “Dose of Dopeness,” will show at 4:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. Admission is free.

Wrong season, I know, but my random, desktop image of the day was this one, and I thought it looked pretty cool.
Southern Oregon University Basketball player Alexi Smith goes to the hoop as the SOU cheerleaders look on
Tonight and tomorrow night the men’s and women’s basketball teams will be playing at home. The Lady Raiders play at 5:30 each night and the men start at 7:30. The opponents are Warner Pacific tonight and Concordia on Saturday night.
In today’s photo, Alexi Smith (averaging about 16 points a game, good for second on the team and fifth in the conference) is sporting a simplified Chinese character for love tattooed on her left arm. 愛 is one of the few characters that can have fewer strokes in Chinese than in Japanese.
