I do not want to hear anyone blaming the president for the price of gasoline. President Barack Obama has nothing to do with the pricing of gasoline, but I'm sure he'll be the one blamed.
The state of Michigan has more to do with our gasoline prices than anything. And, if Gov. Rick Snyder's new budget becomes reality, we'll be paying even more per gallon.
We are already paying 19 cent per gallon gas tax, and Snyder hopes to increase that to 33 cents.
Right now diesel buyers are forking over a 15-cent tax, which would also go to 33- cents.
That would mean we'd be over the $4 per gallon under. Way to go — that ought to help our economy. Not!
Snyder's budget would also take another chunk of change from your pocket in the form of increases to vehicle registrations. That's right— you would pay more to register your vehicle under HIS plan. How does a 60 percent increase sound to you? The average registration will go up $120 per year per car. I already pay $124, which means mine will go to $244 a year now.
I don't get why he believes this will help us as a state. Most people have to drive to and from work — and that's those who actually have a job. Making it cost even more seems to hurt more than it helps.
It's cool that companies are wanting to come to Michigan, but it they're only paying $10 per hour, they may as well not pay anything at all. Life doesn't function at $10 an hour. Most of these new jobs are coming here because of his Right To Work passage. See how it works now? You lose!
Hunters beware: Snyder is raising hunting and fishing license fees, too. Sounds like the perfect way to keep tourism booming in our great state. Higher gas prices, increased license fees, empty buildings, sad faces and poverty-stricken folk will soon be our "Pure Michigan" commercials if we don't get a grip.
I'm afraid Snyder is setting himself up for defeat come re-election time. His ideas won't work.
I chuckled at Rep. Matt Lori's response in the Journal to Snyder's budget proposal. He might as well as given him a cookie. It saddens me to think these individuals are representing us.

Governor's proposals not good for Michigan
I do not want to hear anyone blaming the president for the price of gasoline. President Barack Obama has nothing to do with the pricing of gasoline, but I'm sure he'll be the one blamed.

Type DJ Swearinger's name into Google, and the first page will be littered with examples of why he's become a college football fan favorite over the last three years - big hits and big plays. While young phenom defensive lineman Jadeveon Clowney is the most prominent Gamecock defender, Swearinger is the leader and Captain of the South Carolina defense, and it's easy to see why. The unit as a whole took on Swearinger's personality, playing with equal part's cockiness and violent reckless abandonment. That's not to say that Swearinger is just a freelancing goon enforcer. One of the things that immediately jumps out about Swearinger is how versatile he is and how many roles he excels in for South Carolina. In South Carolina's base 4-2-5 defense, he's listed as a Free Safety. Over the course of a game, however, you'll see him line up all over the field. He's played as a center-fielder, can go down in the box as a Strong Safety, and even got a healthy amount of snaps at Cornerback for the Gamecocks this year after injuries took their toll on that position. For a good portion of the game against Tennessee, South Carolina asked Swearinger to shadow Vol receiver Justin Hunter in coverage. Hunter is a big, fast playmaking receiver who will likely be taken in the first 50 picks come April, and the two had a nice battle. Hunter caught a couple balls underneath, as Swearinger was playing with a pretty sizable cushion - understandable when going against a bigger receiver with downfield ability. However, Swearinger also displayed some fantastic mirror skills in man coverage.
Tennessee lines up with two receivers to the wide side of the field running a Hitch/Fade route combination - Cordarrelle Patterson on the outside and Justin Hunter in the slot. South Carolina is running Cover 1 - man coverage across the board with one deep safety playing the middle of the field. This is the point of the game where Swearinger is shadowing Hunter, so he's lined up over him in the slot in off-man coverage.
Hunter eats up Swearinger's cushion quickly, but the safety flips his hips to run with the receiver with little wasted motion. As they stride together, Swearinger uses his arm and body to impede Hunter's progress. Even as Hunter turns and looks for the ball, Swearinger stays locked in on keeping up with the bigger, faster Hunter. He's almost perfectly in-phase with Hunter. By cutting Hunter off though the route and waiting until Hunter moves his hands to make a play on the ball before reciprocating, Swearinger allows himself to stick with a more physically talented player. The only way for that ball to get completed is for the QB to make an impossibly accurate throw (similar to Eli Manning's to Mario Manningham in the Superbowl) or for Hunter to push off and commit offensive pass interference. Neither happens and the ball falls harmlessly to the turf.
Later in the game, Tennessee ran a Post/Wheel route combination off of a Play Action End Around. South Carolina is once again in Cover 1, and Swearinger is again lined up across from Justin Hunter (this time putting him at left cornerback).
With just one deep safety to protect the middle of the field, Swearinger aligns with inside leverage, allowing him to potentially use the sideline as an extra defender if need be. As Hunter starts to sink and begin his in cut to the Post, Swearinger plants his outside foot and swings his hips, turning with no wasted motion. As such, he's stays in position with Hunter the entire way down the field. As a run defender, Swearinger needs to improve on tackling runners in space, as he has a tendency to lunge and dive in open areas. However, he excels at filling in more confined spaces. He hits the playside alley quickly and violently and stays disciplined as a cutback defender on the backside, showing a good understanding of when to shoot the gap and bring the runner down.
Vanderbilt calls a Pin Toss out with 3 tight ends bunched to the left. By pulling the playside guard and the center, Vanderbilt is trying to get more bodies at the point of attack than South Carolina has defenders. South Carolina is running Cover 1 Robber, with Swearinger dropping down into the box late as the Robber defender.
The Robber defender isn't just there to be a floater against the pass. He has cutback responsibility against the run, allowing the inside linebackers to fast flow with the running back. Denoted in orange, the Spur (a safety/linebacker hybrid in the 4-2-5) has done his job as the Force defender, turning the ball back inside to help. However, both of the linebackers (yellow) have gotten picked off by offensive linemen. Vanderbilt has a blocker on every body and there's a clear lane. In a split second, DJ shoots the cutback lane, meeting the runner just beyond the line of scrimmage.All in all, Swearinger's versatility and ability to fulfill multiple roles within the frame of a defense should make him a highly coveted player come draft time. As with all defensive backs, his stock will likely be tied to his combine performance. There will probably be questions as to whether he has the range to be a safety who centerfield from single-high coverages. I acknowledge those concerns, and Swearinger has proven over his college career that he's capable of handling it. At the very least, he'll be an aggressive and dependable downhill safety who can do a number of different things for a defense.

Right after WWII, the family was much too poor to afford random photos so very few exist of Valentino as a very young child. But this is of he and his Papa standing near an old vehicle out near their home.
This expression is one I often still see on his face of intensity and questioning. Almost anticipation of what is to come next. What I love in this photo is the smile on his father's face. Everyone remembers him as so serious but the hand to his son's shoulder and smile speak volumes of love and pride to me.

Now is the season for cherries, a fruit that is always juicy and absolutely delicious.
If Marketa were a fruit she would be a cherry, and in her film debut at Hegre-Archives she brings us this ripe and sensual combination, slowly caressing her sweet naked body with the fruit before embracing it in her little pink tongue.
She´s even sitting on a red chair, so elegant and charming it would be hard to imagine cherries being eaten any other way.

Dear Leanne: We are renovating our historical home and have decided to start with the kitchen. We would like to borrow some of the design elements from the Georgian style — such as the black-and-white colour theme — but want to add a twist. Rather than white baseboards we were thinking of painting them black, as well as the window and door trims. If we paint the kitchen trim black do we need to continue this throughout the home? And what about the doors? We will be replacing the flooring, cabinets and countertops and are open to suggestions on all.
A: The stately Georgian styled home design is a beautiful contrast between elegant architectural design and the simplicity of a black-and-white colour palette.
Black baseboards and trim can be absolutely stunning. I tend to use design rules as a guide rather than the law. If your Georgian home was to become a museum, accurately reflecting the design rules of the time period would be crucial. But today's decor magazines show that you can tastefully bend the rules and smudge the edges of history to create magnificent effects.
Still, that doesn't mean that anything goes. Successful design always follows the principles of scale and balance.
When deciding how to finish interior detailing, consider such factors as room size, ceiling height, natural lighting and whether rooms are visually open to one another or closed off with doors.
If you start to paint the trim and baseboards white in one room, you will likely find that continuing the effect throughout the house is necessary, particularly if you do not have a natural start and stop point. I have seen spectacular designs with window frames and doors painted black, while the base boards and trim remained white. The white door frame was an elegant contrast to the black door and kept the room balanced. The black window frame acted like a picture frame for the view outside. If you were to incorporate that look in your kitchen, a black-and-white tiled kitchen floor would be a stunning base with white cabinets. If you plan to incorporate an island, consider topping it with a black granite top and leave the remaining counter white. This is one unique but very effective idea.
Dear Leanne: I am repainting the interior of my home and had selected a warm grey and deep beige tone for various rooms. The question I have is transitioning different colours with rounded corners. Currently my home is all one colour — and I am beginning to under-stand why. Do you have any tips on painting with rounded corners?
A: This is a question that I am frequently asked and has been a source of contention for many homeowners that like to do the painting themselves. Rounded corners were recently introduced into housing design and offer many advantages over the traditional squared wall edged. They minimize the potential for paint to chip and they also allow rooms to effortlessly transition from one setting to another.
There really is no perfect solution for painting rounded corners, as there is no obvious start and stop place. Some painters choose to carry one paint colour through the curve until the wall changes to the new room. Although this works well when you are in the room that continues around the corner, the paint change is noticeable when you are in the other room.
Although you can apply painters' tape down the centre of the curve and paint each side of the curve, the effect rarely is seamless. How-ever, skilled professional painters have been known to tackle this challenge and create perfect edges.
Before you embark on this project, you must obtain an adhesive painters' tape that allows a secure edge (to control the paint from bleeding under the tape edge) while not damaging the surface it is adhered to. Talk to your paint supplier and ask about the best tape for this job. One last suggestion is to make the transition point for changing paint colour the inside walls, where there are obvious corners, and apply the alternate paint colour to the walls that share a corner. This way, rather than each room having its own individual colour, the grey and beige tones would be present in all rooms.

Information for journalists
INTERPOL's activities generate substantial media interest and requests for interviews and information.
Background information
In order to speed up enquiries, we encourage journalists to use this website for basic information on the Organization. Suggested resources include:
- A series of fact sheets, giving an overview of the range of INTERPOL's activities.
- Recent speeches and comments by the Secretary General and other senior staff, which can be seen as official statements of INTERPOL policy.
- Frequently Asked Questions which include some advice for journalists.
Specific enquiries
If after using the website for background information, you have further questions or requests, please send an email to the INTERPOL press office.
Emails are generally dealt with as promptly as a telephone request. They enable press officers to provide INTERPOL's specialist officers with written details and also help to avoid any misunderstanding about an enquiry.
Journalists should be aware that police officers working at the INTERPOL General Secretariat headquarters have heavy workloads and are often on mission and therefore not immediately available to answer queries, nor are they authorized to comment on specific ongoing investigations in member countries.
Enquiries relating to country-specific investigations or issues should normally be directed to the national law enforcement agency in member countries.

We believe that in every category, for every company, at any given time, there are opportunities for dramatic growth. We also believe that these opportunities lie not in completely overhauling the brand, but by building on assets that already exist. Too often, in pursuit of new growth, marketers reposition their brand from "A" to "B." But by telling a customer who values you for A that you're not A anymore, you're putting that customer at risk. This approach bets that the incremental revenue gained by the new positioning will more than make up for the lost revenue it causes. And that's a bet no brand should have to make.
We believe there is a better way. The equities that make you great at A also make you great at B. The real opportunity is to reinterpret your existing equity so you attract new customers while deepening the commitment of existing customers, boosting sales and brand relevance simultaneously.

Chevrolet is launching a global marketing campaign that encourages consumers to have a positive outlook on life.
"Fueling Possibilities" includes a tool using the IBM Watson platform that helps guide users toward activities for their next adventure. Commonwealth//McCann and The Martin Agency helped develop the concept in conjunction with Chevrolet.
The Chevrolet Global Positivity System is a mobile and desktop Web site that evaluates users' social media presence to gauge their positive impact.The Chevy Global Positivity System is available at www.FindNewRoads.com in eight languages: English, Spanish, Arabic, Korean, Portuguese and French Canadian.
"We will continue to support the program throughout the year in other markets around the world," said Karen Toor, global content marketing manager for Chevrolet. "A big component to the campaign includes the installation of fuel stations that utilize the Fueling Possibilities application."
Using the platform, special fuel stations were created by Chevy in Calgary, Cape Town, New Orleans, and Buenos Aires that accepted positive social mentions as currency for fuel. In a few instances, the automaker met some of the fuel station patrons and turned their Watson-recommended experiences into a once-in-a-lifetime adventures.
The global integrated campaign includes paid digital, owned and earned media. Through paid digital media, Chevy is using targeted Facebook custom videos based on edited content from the campaign. The brand is running a promoted trend on Twitter across multiple global markets.
Chevrolet sought to create a tool that could provide the most accurate snapshot of a user's social sentiment. In working with IBM to incorporate Watson's functionality -- a first for the automaker -- Chevy found what it calls the perfect solution to meet its goals.
Using IBM's Watson Personality Insights and AlchemyLanguage APIs, Chevy's Global Positivity System is able to build a detailed personality snapshot for users that is based on multiple criteria, including a social media analysis to evaluate sentiment and a personality characteristic evaluation to help guide users toward activities for their next adventure.
The output also includes a score based on Watson Sentiment Analysis capability, which provides an interpretation of the positivity of users' Facebook and Twitter posts. Users can then share their score with each other via social media and compare it to the average of the Global Positivity System community. The platform will also identify each person's most positive and least positive posts, as well as their most frequently used positive words and Emojis.
In addition to a positivity score and sentiment analysis, the snapshot highlights users' top three personality traits identified by Watson Personality Insights, such as excitement and self-expression. The site then encourages users to Find New Roads that may appeal to their traits, such as touring a museum or taking on a new hobby.
"We believe that the journey of finding new roads starts with a little positivity, so we wanted to go out into the world and prove it," Toor says. "Setting up real pumps in existing gas stations allowed us to not only measure and reward online positivity, but to capture where the fuel they earned would take them."

Elyse Lisznyai and the Hillsdale Academy Colts had other ideas.
The senior ignited a second half rally and the Colts remained on top of the Southern Central Athletic Association standings with a 44-33 victory over the North Adams-Jerome Rams on Monday.
Hillsdale Academy (18-1, 15-0 SCAA) trailed by eight at halftime, but fought back to take a one-point lead into the fourth quarter. The Colts outscored the Rams 15-5 in the fourth to secure the win, thanks largely to three 3-pointers from Lisznyai in the frame. She finished with five 3-pointers in the second half and led all scorers with 19 points.
"It's a wake-up call for us and we have to get ready to get teams' best shots," Hillsdale Academy coach Kevin Reed said. "(North Adams-Jerome) did a great job in the first half. Elyse hit her 3-pointers which loosened up their zone in the second half."
North Adams-Jerome (5-12) was the stronger team in the first half. After building a two-point lead in the first quarter, the Rams extended their lead to 20-12 by halftime. During the half, the Rams held Hillsdale Academy to 4-of-23 shooting.
"They weren't intimidated and made their shots, and we weren't making shots," Reed said.
The Colts stormed back in the third quarter, eventually taking a 29-28 lead entering the fourth.
Lisznyai also recorded four steals for Hillsdale Academy. Olivia Jones scored 10 points, while Christina Craig had eight points and three assists. Lyndee Wonders grabbed five rebounds and handed out four assists, and McKayla Tharp dished out three assists.
Desiree Morrison scored eight points to lead the Rams, while Kayla Blevins had seven points, four rebounds, five assists and five steals. Hannah Webb added six points and six rebounds. Cheyenne Monahan, Casey Farmer and Amanda Adams each scored four points.
"We ran out of gas a little in the fourth, but the girls played extremely well," North Adams-Jerome coach Doug Dospoy said. "They played hard all the way to the end."
North Adams will host Litchfield on Thursday. The Colts will host Jackson Christian next Tuesday.
Waldron 46, Jackson Christian 41
A big night from freshman Alicia Roney helped the Waldron High School girls basketball team stun the Jackson Christian Royals in a Southern Central Athletic Association game Monday.
Waldron (5-12, 5-9 SCAA) trailed by seven after the first quarter. Making matters worse, junior Lindsey Lockwood left the game with a sprained ankle. However, the Spartans fought back to within 19-16 at halftime.
Jackson Christian carried a five-point lead into the fourth quarter, but the Spartans outscored the Royals 21-11 in the frame to take the win.
"The girls rallied around (Lockwood) going down, and I'm proud of the them," Waldron coach John Burke said. "We were breaking their press and finally executing on the offensive end. And we made our foul shots which helped. Alicia had a heck of a game and was dominate for us."
Roney scored a game-high 13 points to lead the Spartans. Alexis Birdsell had eight points and 10 rebounds, while Kaila Fidler and Haley Roth also scored eight points each.
Waldron will travel to county rival Camden-Frontier on Thursday.
Pittsford 50, Litchfield 26
The Pittsford High School girls basketball team pulled away in the second half for a victory over the Litchfield Terriers in a Southern Central Athletic Association game Monday.
Pittsford (11-5, 10-5 SCAA) won its fourth straight game. Litchfield (7-8, 5-8 SCAA) kept the game within striking distance for most of the first half, but the Wildcats managed to take a 21-12 lead into the intermission.
The game turned in the third quarter with Pittsford outscoring the Terriers 18-6 to pull away.
"We didn't have school today and we don't always play well when that happens," Pittsford coach Chris Hodos said. "But we were able to jump-start our offense in the second half."
Laura Clark had 13 points and eight rebounds to lead the Wildcats. Kristin Belcher added nine points, three assists and five steals, while Madison Ayers scored eight points and grabbed six rebounds. Ashley Culbert handed out three assists.
Harley Prater recorded a double-double for Litchfield with 16 points and 13 rebounds. Ariel Knight grabbed six rebounds, while Kim Wykes had five rebounds. Katelyn Wheeler handed out four assists.
"We felt like we were still in it during the first half, but we didn't handle their pressure well in the second half," Litchfield coach Bill O'Dell said.
Both teams play Thursday. The Terriers will visit North Adams-Jerome, while the Wildcats will host Jackson Christian. Pittsford will host its Coaches vs. Cancer game that night, and fans attending are encouraged to wear pink.

PAINESVILLE, Ohio � Tim Dezelski converted a traditional 3-point play with 2:11 remaining, giving the Hillsdale College men's basketball team the lead for good as the Chargers posted a 59-52 victory over the Lake Erie College Storm in a Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference game Thursday at the Osborne Center.
Hillsdale (11-4, 7-4 GLIAC) won its third straight game and moved into a first-place tie with Findlay (10-5, 7-4 GLIAC) in the South Division.
The game featured 11 lead changes and seven ties. Lake Erie (5-9, 2-8 GLIAC) pulled into a 52-52 tie with just over three minutes remaining. A minute later, Dezelski scored a layup and was fouled. His free throw gave the Chargers a 55-52 lead, which they would not relinquish.
After hitting for over 60 percent from the floor in its previous two games, Hillsdale shot 51 percent on Thursday. The Storm led 34-32 at halftime, but Hillsdale gained control in the second half, holding Lake Erie to 18 points.
Dezelski scored a game-high 18 points to lead the Chargers. Nick Washburn added 12 points and six rebounds, while Darius Ware had seven points. Derek Schell and Tony Nelson both had six points and Brandon Pritzl finished with five points, six rebounds and four assists.
Tom Parker scored 14 points to lead the Storm. Garrick Sims added 10 points, while Jordan Baker had six points. Andy Bosley had five points and five rebounds.

|Condition or disease
|HIV Infections
|Drug: raltegravir
|Phase 4
One of the many adverse consequences of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is the increase in the rate of lymphocyte cell death (Badley AD, Blood. 2000; 96:2951-64). Increased lymphocyte death is associated with the level of activation of the immune system (Gougeon ML. Nat Rev Immunol. 2003: 3:392-404), along with the disregulation of the cytokine network and a plethora of cytotoxic effects induced by HIV proteins (Badley AD, Blood. 2000; 96:2951-64). Hence, cell death can be observed in vivo not only in CD4+ cells, which are the main target of HIV, but also in CD8 T cells. Current knowledge suggest that immune activation and different mechanisms of cell death play a determinant role in T-lymphocyte (CD4+) loss during HIV infection and recovery after HAART (Bofill M et al AIDS. 1996 :827-34).
Highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART) induces a decline in the level of immune activation and lymphocyte apoptosis in HIV-infected patients as a result of a reduction in viral replication (Kolber MA, et al, Clin Immunol. 2007 [Epub ahead of print]). This reduction contributes to the recovery of immune system associated with antiretroviral therapy. In addition to this effect, which is induced through the reduction in viral load, antiretroviral therapy has been implicated in the regulation of apoptosis in different cell types, inhibiting or activating the process and influencing treatment efficacy and toxicity (Petit F, et al.Trends Pharmacol Sci. 2005. 26:258-64).
Interestingly, it is not always true that antiretroviral therapy and viral suppression are associated with progressive immune recovery. Approximately 30% of patients present a paradoxical response to treatment, achieving progressive increases in immunity (measured by CD4+ count) despite failing to achieve viral suppression, or, vice versa, patients who maintain or reduce CD4+ cell count despite achieving viral suppression. Indeed, it is well known that higher CD8 activation is associated with fewer treatment-mediated CD4 gain. Each 10% increase in activated CD8+HLADR+CD38+ mean 90 fewer CD4 cell gained (Hunt PW et al J Infect Dis. 2003. 187:1534-43). The failure of recover CD4 T cells may rely on a incomplete viral suppression than could be responsible for increased immune activation and lymphocyte death. Recently, it has been pointed out that intensification strategies may be useful in reducing activation and improving CD4 T cell recovery (Kolber MA, et al, Clin Immunol. 2007 [Epub ahead of print]).

A meeting meant to rally support for increased scrutiny of compensation packages offered to Southern Ute Indian Tribe Growth Fund employees revealed a mix of attitudes toward the salaries of those working for the tribes business arm.
At the meeting of about 30 Southern Ute Indian Tribe members Monday night, most audience members who spoke pushed for starting a dialogue with tribal leaders regarding grievances about employee compensation instead of immediately organizing in protest of the issue.
Beth Santistevan, Tribal Council media coordinator, encouraged tribal members to invite Tribal Council, Tribal Chairman Jimmy Newton and Growth Fund executives to another meeting where they could ask questions directly.
If you guys want to get things done, you have the power to do it, she said.
Several Growth Fund employees attended the meeting as well, and two said they worked hard to earn the salaries and bonuses they received.
Criticism of Growth Fund employees pay is an attack on those people, and its an attack on me, said one tribal member who declined to give her name.
With an employee base of about 600, the Growth Fund oversees investments in many areas including real estate, private equity and energy development.
Growth Fund Director Bob Zahradnik also defended the compensation packages offered to employees, saying they are necessary to retain talented workers to operate the tribes ventures, the majority are in the energy sector. As domestic energy production ramped up during the last decade, people skilled in fields such as petroleum engineering have become more and more in-demand, requiring the Growth Fund to constantly re-evaluate salary levels to retain those employees, he said.
We work with some very good people to make sure were paying salaries that are competitive in the industries we invest in, Zahradnick said. The Growth Fund uses the services of the global consulting companies Mercer and Towers Watson to determine salary levels, he said.
In 2000, the Southern Ute Tribal Council gave the Growth Fund the authority to set salary levels of its employees, Zahradnick said. The Growth Fund updates Tribal Council members regularly with results of surveys that analyze employee compensation, he said. The Tribal Council also approved the performance-based formula used to calculate employee bonuses, he said.
Though Zahradnick declined to give any specifics about salary levels, a Durango woman who filed a lawsuit against the Growth Fund in 2010 said she earned a salary of $115,000 after working for several years as an applications manager there. She said she received annual bonuses of up to $25,000.
At the end of the Monday meeting, tribal members decided to schedule another meeting where they would create questions for tribal leadership. Most seemed to support the idea of talking with tribal leaders instead of signing a letter requesting that Tribal Council revise the contracts and bonuses of Growth Fund employees, the idea that was originally proposed by tribal member Lynda Grove-DWolf who organized the meeting.

Lady Spires' struggles continue; Leavenworth falls for second straight night
The hole just continues to get deeper for the University of Saint Mary women's basketball team.
Trying to snap a five-game losing streak, the Lady Spires hosted Kansas Wesleyan Thursday night. Unfortunately for USM, things went from bad to worse when the squad lost 78-53.
"Everything," Saint Mary coach Mike Basler said of the cause for his team's struggles. "It can get worse, we haven't hit rock bottom, but I don't really feel like we are good enough in any area to win games right now. The biggest thing is we aren't valuing the ball and not keeping others off the scoreboard."
Versus Kansas Wesleyan, a disastrous first half sunk the Lady Spires early. The home squad gave up 50 points to its visitors and faced a 21-point deficit at half.
The second period saw the Wildcats outscore USM 28-24, but the improved play by Saint Mary never translated into a honest rally.
Statistically, the Lady Spires went 3-of-17 from the 3-point line, committed 17 turnovers and shot 36 percent from the field.
USM, 4-7 overall and 0-3 in the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference, will try to snap its six-game slide when it hosts Sterling College at 5 p.m.
"We feel we have an experienced squad and they are just going to have to bow their necks and keep working," Basler said. "Quitting won't fix this. Hard work will."
Lady Pioneers suffer tough loss to South
Whether it was an emotional and physical hangover, the Leavenworth girls' basketball team had troubles rebounding from a narrow loss on Tuesday in its game against Olathe South on Thursday.
After coming up nine-points short of a major upset versus Blue Valley earlier in the week, the Lady Pioneers struggled against Olathe South to the tune of a 48-23 loss in the second round of the Olathe South Tournament.
"We just didn't play well,' Leavenworth coach Derek Zeck said. "We played with no legs, no energy and we just seemed to still be recovering from the hard loss on Tuesday."
The game began well for the Lady Pioneers, but a 21-5 run by South in the second quarter blew open the contest. From there, Leavenworth couldn't find its footing to get back into the ball game.
Rachel Blackburn led the team in scoring with 10 points while Emma Zeck and Rashayla Mathis each had four.
The Pioneers will play Olathe East at 6:30 p.m. tonight to wrap up the competition.
"Right now our confidence is shaken, especially after tonight," Zeck said. "We are going to see what were made out of tomorrow and see if we can get back some of the that swagger."

An estimated 9,000 people linked hands Sept. 27, but whether Durango Connect will get an encore is a mass shrug of the shoulders as officials are non-committal about making it an annual event.
Because he has gotten so many inquiries about another Durango Connect, organizer Jack Turner posed the question in a mass email to community leaders, but he emphasized that he was trying to spark only a discussion and nothing else.
Im not the lone ranger advocate on this, Turner said.
Cathy Metz, director of parks and recreation for Durango, deemed Durango Connect a big success, but she said the city considered it a historic and one-time event.
Durango Connect celebrated the Animas River Trail becoming contiguous for seven miles for the first time this year.
Metz said the city would continue to celebrate other milestones of the river trail in the future, but the city probably will look for new ideas. The trail will continue to grow at its northern and southern ends and possibly make connections to other trails, too.
Because nothing has been formally presented to Durango School District 9-R, spokeswoman Julie Popp said the district could not confirm whether it would participate again.
9-R provided much of the manpower as more than 6,000 schoolchildren are estimated to have participated.
Hand-holders were so well-behaved that Durango Police Lt. Ray Shupe said the police did not have to make any arrests or respond to any lost children.
Turner was not aware of any problems, either.
Im prejudiced, but everyone I know had a good time, he said.

YREKA – A sex offender was apprehended Tuesday on sexual assault charges, stated Allison Giannini, Siskiyou County Sheriff's Office public information officer.
James Bradley Budd, 25, of Montague, is being held in the Siskiyou County Jail in lieu of $100,000 bail on charges of rape of a victim who was incapable of consent and oral copulation.
According to Giannini, the incident occurred on Monday in Montague. Budd was taken into custody the following day.
The sheriff's office is not releasing the victim's age or the circumstances of the alleged sexual assault, said Giannini.
Giannini confirmed that Budd is a sex offender, and that he is required to register. However, his name and information are not listed on the California Department of Justice website.
Siskiyou County District Attorney Kirk Andrus said if his office confirms that Budd is a sex offender and legally resides in Siskiyou County he will face an additional charge of failure to register as a sex offender.
Budd is scheduled to be arraigned on his charges today in the Siskiyou County Superior Court.

I remember when I first saw "Bugs Bonnets". It was in the mid 60s in a movie theater. They still ran shorts at some theaters then and they would run cartoons from a few years earlier. The big screen really is the best way to see classic shorts of any kind!
My Dad would take me to the cartoons and then I would talk his ear off about them after. I was about 10 years old and Bugs Bonnets really made an impression on me. There was something different about it.
fashioned" and "futuristic". This looked like future cartoons to me (even though it was from 1955- I thought it was new). I didn't analyze it or anything, because I didn't know what that was yet. I did notice that everything was angular. All the rounded edges of the characters now had corners. Yet the drawings were still great. They weren't flat.
I imagined advanced cartoonists with big angular brains, tiny limbs from the far future of 1976 creating highly skilled 3 dimensional cartoons filled with hilarity and futuristic style and then transporting themselves back to 1965 to share their sensory delights with us primitive rounded creatures.
I think from then on, I was really aware of style and modernity. These terms have since come to mean different things than what they meant in the 60s (and earlier). Just as I was becoming aware of the futureness of style, the 70s descended and everything slipped into the dark ages Style and the future disappeared from the planet. Videotaped TV programs, Saturday Morning cartoons, soft rock and Star Wars cloaked the earth with a yellow ochre haze of blandness and the future died. Skill also vanished along with style.

Many people attempt to avoid painful issues by taking pills, powders, or liquids and then waiting for the desired effect - an alteration of their consciousness. There are more positive ways to alter consciousness without turning to alcohol, drugs, food, gambling, sex, television, work, or any other activity that when used to excess, has a destructive impact on your life. Learning to change your mood by healthier more active methods involves some effort and motivation on your part but recovery from addiction is possible. We have experienced substance abuse professionals to help you make the changes you want to make

Recovering from addiction requires support, commitment, motivation and time. Committing to sobriety involves changes in how you think about yourself, and how you deal with stress and relationships. I believe treatment should address your specific needs and focus on more than the addiction. Success also depends on addressing the reasons for the addiction. I use a comprehensive and holistic approach that also helps you: enhance your motivation to participate in treatment; develop strategies for coping with cravings; learn skills to avoid and prevent relapse; learn to develop a healthier life-style; and address other health problems such as depression or anxiety. I also provide and recommend additional services such as support groups and group therapy,...(view profile to read more)

Ashburn Psychological Services has therapists and doctors available to assist in your recovery from addiction. Addiction to alcohol, substances, sex and pornography, gambling, computers and media and foods are some of the areas that can be addressed in treatment. A bio-psycho-social model to addiction treatment is widely seen as being a successful approach. With this approach, a client's addiction is understood and treated in the context of his or her biology, psychology and social reality. At times, cognitive-behavior therapy and other counseling approaches are enough to bring about change and improvements, while at other times, medication may be warranted. We are here to help.

There is a spectrum of substance use. Not all use is addiction. It doesn't always end in "jail, institutions, or death." Our goal is to help you figure out how drugs or alcohol have impacted you and your life. Then we will individualize a treatment plan for you. This may include a combination of individual, family, or group therapy and drug/alcohol testing. It may even include a program of harm reduction called alcohol moderation. Mutual support groups do not work for everyone so we do not require them. Don't let a bad experience with a rigid program stop you from getting help.

Many men are addicted to pornography. They can spend hours a day viewing imagines on computers. They may also have affairs that are causing havoc in their lives. I have worked with Everymans Battle workshops as a group counselor. I also facilitate several men's groups where men meet and help each other grow in their understanding of who God says the are. The start of the journey to healing starts with a call to someone. You don't have to be bound by this affliction-contact someone-reach out for help..

Addictive behaviors are not about the chosen substance or behavior, they are related to underlying feelings of self worth, belonging, and perhaps physical, emotional or sexual abuse that lead to compensating behaviors that play out in a damaging, often life-threatening ways. I help clients find the source of the unhealthy beliefs and change them. Simply dealing with abstinence from a substance or behavior does not heal the wound underneath; finding and healing that is the most effective way to bring lasting change.

Addiction is an intense yearning to again and again experience the effects of repeating a behavior or using a substance. Whether it is alcohol addiction or internet addiction, the loss of control and the constant cravings affect one's physical health, emotional well-being, and social life. The goal of therapy is to help you break the current routine - to help you develop and practice strategies for impulse control and build a healthy, balanced, productive, and rewarding lifestyle.
