Body Language Mistakes You Must Avoid…
Here's a short list of the most common body language mistakes that turn women OFF in a heartbeat…
By David DeAngelo
Here it is, the one that still keeps me up at night…
It's the fact that the biggest secret of picking up women is actually so SIMPLE and OBVIOUS that you'd think ALL men couldn't help but see it, as plain as the nose on their face.
.Yet, somehow, 99% of guys never see it. And they never will.
That's why 99% of men will just keep on making the same mistakes… over and over again… and keep blowing it when it comes to picking up women…
Don't get me wrong… there's no doubt that men try extremely hard to impress a woman from the moment they meet her.
In fact, watch a guy's first moments talking to a woman if you want to see the embarrassing, painful truth. (Helpful suggestion: bring along a barf bag. You'll need it.)
Most men immediately hem and haw and get tongue-tied. They talk way too much, or too little. They talk too fast or too slow.
They act so nervous and stilted during the conversation that they come across as "formal" in a bizarre, off-putting way. They brag--or just plain lie --about how much money they make or the car they drive.
Finally, they say something so lame that the woman "shuts down" or withdraws, and then the guy frantically "back-pedals," trying to change what he said to suit the woman.
But here's what you'll almost NEVER see a guy do when it comes to picking up women…
He'll never act naturally.
He'll never seem at ease or say anything "risky".
He'll never tease a woman to get her off that "pedestal" and connect with her as just another person.
That in mind, here it is… the #1 biggest secret of picking up women…
There. I said it.
Maybe I can finally get some sleep tonight.
I told you it was obvious…
The fact is this:
If you just STOP TRYING SO HARD when it comes to picking up women, you'll automatically set yourself apart from that 99% of other guys. You'll start doing the things that NATURALLY impress her. You'll begin to spark ATTRACTION in her without doing all that hard work that actually leads nowhere.
And then guess what…
You'll able able to turn the whole game on its head.
You'll start by pretending that you're the one trying to resist her advances.
You'll start making fun of her for trying to "put the moves on you".
You'll have her intrigued and laughing, and all of it will stoke that spark of attraction that she's already feeling for you because you're so refreshingly different from other guys.
What you're really doing here is harnessing the power of a special brand of Cocky & Funny - an engaging way of flirting with a woman by pretending she's trying to "pick you up" and that you're "resisting her advances" .
It drives a woman to switch into "play" mode, instead of getting defensive because you're just another lame loser who's all about picking up women.
Most of all, when you act this way, it sends the message loud and clear that you're a man who's cool and comfortable in his own skin. That you're a man who's in control of his reality and confident in what he's doing. That you're a man who's exciting and intriguing instead of predictable and boring (like 99% of other men).
In other words… you're the total OPPOSITE of a WUSS.
And that's the real key to creating irresistible ATTRACTION.
And, when it comes to picking up women, that's truly the biggest secret of success in a nutshell. But the fact remains…
You need to get a handle on the basics of how to spark and keep that attraction going, or it just doesn't matter how good you are at picking up women.
You'll still end up going home alone.
That's why, when you're ready to master the basics of the mysterious force called ATTRACTION, you can read all about it in my eBook "Double Your Dating".

Cuomo proposes to cap wage increases that arbitration panels could give unionized public workers at 2 percent if the municipality is deemed to be under "fiscal distress." Mayors support the measure, saying it's needed to avoid big raises that taxpayers can't afford in contract impasses.
The New York State Professional Fire Fighters Association is getting support from Connecticut, Idaho, Pennsylvania and Texas colleagues. They say Cuomo is attempting to eliminate adequate compensation.
The firefighter groups accuse the Democrat of abandoning support for labor.

A friend just sent me a quote from a new book by Rick Holland entitled Uneclipsing The Son. This quote is so good I ordered the book! Enjoy the glorious gospel truth that "Jesus died for us to reconcile us to God!" (See Romans 5:6-11).
Paul says in Romans 5 verse 6, "For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly." Few, it seems, have taken the time for such a consideration. One church's website records this testimony of a new believer: "Here, I have found pastors who teach gently in the way of Christ....absent of judgment, without condemnation, good people who share the best of what means the most to them."

Taj Mihelich
photo and interview by George Marshall
Taj Mihelich is an ex-professional BMX rider and is regarded by many as one of the most creative and influential riders BMX has ever seen. In recent years he has turned his talents to road and town bicycles with his Texas based company Fairdale. We visited Taj in his hometown of Austin to see how his new venture is going.
How did a career as a professional BMX rider lead into making road bicycles?
I've spent my life riding bikes and falling in love with them. I've always been a part of designing products for the companies I was sponsored by, so it was pretty natural to start a brand. Fairdale is just the next stage of my bike riding life (and they happen to be good bikes for retired BMXers).
How does your background in BMX influence the design of a town/ road bike?
BMX bikes are some of the most simple and inexpensive of all bikes, but they can do the most amazing things ever. I keep that in mind while designing and resist the urge to overcomplicate things. The idea is to be out riding and enjoying them, not worrying about the tech behind it.
What makes Fairdale different from the other companies?
I've had a lifetime enjoying bikes in a lot of different ways. From the scariest most dangerous moments of my life, to my biggest accomplishments, to traveling all over as a pro rider, and of course to a simple cruise on a sunny day. In honest truth the motivation for Fairdale is simply to pass some of that experience on to other people. We hope to make bikes that get people out riding and enjoying what is wonderful about bikes. Creating the vehicle (literally I guess) so that people can appreciate bikes in their own way.
Can you tell us about your coastal ride last year?
It was quite an experience. I rode with some buddies from Seattle to San Francisco. An amazing and beautiful ride, but I got over my head though as the guys I rode with were way fitter and more experienced then me. By the end of it though I could ride and climb mountains all day. I kept a daily journal if anyone's interested. fairdalebikes.com/fieldtrips
What plans do you have for Fairdale in the future?
Just working on making cool bikes. The bigger we get the more specific we can get with the bikes too. For example, with our ties to Odyssey BMX Co. we have the ability to do some ultra high-end stuff. I don't really intend Fairdale to ever be a 'race' brand but it will be fun to make some more performance based products. At the same time always working to make bikes more practical and functional for people too.

STK - NYC - Midtown
Online Reservations
This was the my second time at the midtown location and everything was excellent. Our waitress was extremely attentive and pleasant, our meal was cooked to perfection and delicious.
My husband and I were told to go here for our 10 year anniversary. We had great food and the atmosphere was amazing! We weren't looking for something romantic and quiet, it was very energetic since there was a DJ playing songs all night long. We finished our dinner and then sat at the bar for a nightcap. We were in NY for the weekend so we wanted something clubbish. Exactly what we wanted. We'd love to come back with a group of friends.
This was my first time to STK midtwon, have been to the one in the meatpacking several times. It was FUN! It's a great, lively bar scene, with great loud music AND excellent food. a rare combination. I actually was taking clients from out of town, and when we first got there I was nervous it was too loud. But they loved it, totaly NYC scene and and experience they won't forget.
Steak was awesome. Service outstanding. But I could not hear one word my dining partner was saying. Hot bar scene. Not the place to go for a quiet evening.
The food, service and ambience was out of this world. The service was warm and attentive. The food was creative and the portions were perfect. The music was great, but if you do not like to shout over the table, then I do not my suggest STK for you. The prices were not outrageous for a NYC restaurant. Great place for a night out with close friends or your significant other.
Excellent service followed by delicious food. If you don't mind the great music then come on down. The service is great, the food is delicious, and don't forget the desert!
I screwed up my reservation on my wife's birthday. The staff didn't want my blood on their doorstep, so they found us a great table, and saved a poor should. They turned lemons into lemonade. Really appreciated that. Food and service was worth every cent!
Food was great, a goodspot for friends and family.
The meat packing location much better food very good but overall service ok but we had very early reservations on a Saturday night
STK is very trendy & the food and drinks are very good. If you're looking for a fun night out this is a great place to start. Get the donuts for dessert & try the Strawberry Cobbler for a drink.
We had a theatre reservation so decided to choose the tasting menu. We were afraid the serving sizes might be small, but they were perfectly sized. The foie gras french toast was delicious! The skirt steak had wonderful flavors and was prepared perfectly. Great experience.
Skip all the places you usually go per theatre. This is great. Very close very accommodating Food was excellent and they were totally professional. Comfortable and room between tables. No sardine packing here. Glad my daughter picked it. We really enjoyed our dinner and short walk to the theatre.
This is our second stop at STK midtown and one of our favorite weekend late night restaurants (especially after a Broadway show). The live DJ plays a wide variety of music (but not too loud where you can talk among each other) and the energy is always very vibrant! The steaks are always very tender and tasty...we did order the fish which was ok but not as incredible as the rest of the menu. Pricing is comparable to any other fine steak houses... Two thumbs up!
Service was prompt, efficient, courteous and professional. Food was good and I will definitely return.
Great meat! Good ambiance. Do know that the music levels continuously increases during the evening, at least on weekend nights. At around 10 pm having a conversation is almost impossible.
Had a great dinner with a very Chic energetic atmosphere....They feature a DJ playing upbeat classic dance music as background, it's not over powering and added to the experience...Our party of 4 would surely return for another dinner.
Had dinner there after the NYC marathon, which my friend had run. Food was wonderful, steaks superb. Those mashed potatoes were out of this world, think they had a bit of cream and butter! It was quite noisy with background music, but I liked what they were playing so I didn't have much of an issue. But I wouldn't want to go here for a romantic evening. If you want a great steak, this is your place!
I brought my sister here who loves a good meal and it did not disappoint. The food was incredible and the service was impeccable. The filet mignon was delicious and the truffle fries were the best I have ever had. The manager, Joe McHugh was so attentive and friendly. I have already made another reservation because it was just that good.
Food, service, and atmosphere were outstanding. Noise level was hard to handle.
Food has been great each time I've been there. Good scene at the bar and restaurant.
Jay the Sommelier was great. It was interesting to run into another Texan. Bethany was terrific as well. She was very attentive.
i brought my ex here for his birthday and it was the perfect place! Excellent food, beyond outstanding service, the ambiance doubles as a romantic venue yet chic for just hanging out and not give the wrong impression. Loved it!
Amazing food! I had steak so did my wife ! It was the best steak we had in a long time! But the best part of our dinner was the Mac and Cheese and the ff with Parmesan cheese! OMG! It was to die for!
Pricey but worth it. The food was fantastic. One of the steaks came out undercooked and then subsequently overcooked but was taken off of our bill. The waitstaff was friendly and helpful when it came to the menu.
Thanks to the staff accomodating to our wants/needs, i am very pleased. We requested a booth and arrived 15min late. With about 1 drink at the bar, we did not have to wait long at all and we still got a booth! They were not rude at all unlike some high end places that won't even try to accomodate you when your a minute late. Food was great, music good. Overall a great night and will most definitely be coming back.Mac and cheese was nowhere near as good as the one in midtown which I had been to several times. That was a little disappointing but still was decent enough to eat. Bar was backed up and it took a REALLY long time to get a second drink which is understandable for a saturday night.
Had a great experience at STK. The steak was one of the best I've had in NYC. Will definitely be going back.
STK is my new favorite steak house. The loin strip is consistently amazing, and the fries are delish! It does get a bit loud in the evenings with the DJ - but the DJ played some good music so it was ok.
Even with reservation we had to wait for 30 min in the bar (wich is very nice) food was very good and we had a very good time!!!
I am typically a seafood junkie but the steak was so enticing and it didn't disappoint! And the desserts were over the top excellent!
Food was amazing, staff (especially Jennifer) was super helpful and polite & restaurant atmosphere was hip and modern. Cannot ask for more. Will definitely be back and will be recommending to all friends & family.
$105 porterhouse for 2 was weak at best. Have had better meals there previously though but when spending that much on steak and wine you expect it to be 100% each time.
Delicious Steakhouse-style fare set within a vibrant, club-like setting. The steak was among the best I've ever had. This one is worth the trip.
I love two things, a great steak and a great scene... combine the two and you get STK! A bit on the pricey side, it is worth the splurge. Although I still have my favorite steakhouse, Dylan Prime located in a different area of the city, this was a great winter time find, as you can walk right over to Bryant Park to enjoy some skating after dinner. :)
STK was recommended to us by a friend. We had the tuna tartare appetizer and it was amazing-so fresh and great taste! We both had filet and they were cooked perfectly. Shared mac n cheese which was delicious and haricot verts. For desert we shared the birthday cake, which has ice cream, cake, fruity pebbles and was coated in a delicious icing or white chocolate. YUMMY! Our server was super attentive and friendly.
Big City Feel with lower than normal Manhattan prices
This place has great food, but only go if you are with friends, rather than going to a place for a nice dinner to get to know someone. Food was great. It was a real party. A little loud, beyond the festive side of volume.
Took a client for a light lunch - the food was great, and I enjoyed the Tuna Club sandwich. Our server was very pleasant and took wonderful care of us. I look forward to returning soon. I've heard the nighttime noise level is high, but lunchtime was reasonable and we enjoyed a great conversation.
Food & the Staff are great. DJ playing loud music at dinnertime (7pm) made it very hard to have/hear conversation.
Make sure you book! This restaurant is superb. The best fries I have ever tasted and delicious steak, perfectly cooked. Service was attentive, but not intrusive and the atmosphere was lovely, not too noisy to talk easily.
We had such a great time at STK! It was our second time there and I know it most certainly won't be out last! We love the food, service and atmosphere!
young business people and a DJ in the restaurant. Great food but loud
The steaks here really are excellent and perfectly cooked. The service was fine and there were enough reasonably priced wines for a lunchtime tipple! It's not cheap, but the price reflects the quality. The only irritant is the trend for NYC restaurants to 'suggest' thee options for the tip. At STK the MIDDLE option was 20%. To me this takes away the 'reward' element of a tip as it becomes semi -mandatory.
Had a wonderful experience. Nothing negative to comment at all.
perfect pre theatre dinner…they get you out on time with a great meal...
YOU SHOULD TRY IT....The best truffle fries I've ever had....Burgers, salads and grilled tuna sandwiches that are mouth watering food...Staff are friendly and service is great!!! Love this place
First time at STK and I'm glad it was in Manhattan! First and foremost, Rachael, our server, was as attentive as anyone could be. She had a very friendly disposition, so it was easy to talk and ask questions. The food was OUTSTANDING!!!! We started off with the mini burgers and tuna tartar...c'est magnifique! Then onto the main course, never in my life have I ever had a more perfect fillet. It was melt in my mouth, pure heaven and the blue butter that accompanied it was very delicious. We got the mac-n-cheese and broccolini as a side...the mac-n-cheese was absolutely ridiculous, (in the most amazing way possible). Then we finished with the birthday cake dessert. All in all, this was an amazing experience. Pricey, but well worth it
Overall we had a wonderful meal. Had dinner with 5 of my colleages and we were very impressed by the decor and ambiance of the restaurant. Myself and another colleague had the rack of lamb which we totally enjoyed. The others all the the bone-in filet and they raved about it.
I love trying new restaurants and this place had good reviews online so I tried it for my best friend's birthday....All I have to say is "unbelievable." From the moment you walk in the door you feel like a millionaire. Everyone is dressed suit and tie, super fancy, super elegant. We didn't have to wait long for our table and the bar service was excellent, great drink selection. We checked in our coats (free) and hung out at the bar until we were called. There was a DJ who played contemporary music, upbeat, but not to the point where it's distracting. The food was out of this world, the service was professional, everything was just fantastic. Great menu options for any person. Can't wait to go back!
I've been to most of the steakhouses (multiple times) in the city over a 10year career in IBanking. This steakhouse continues to impress me everytime I go. It's super convenient being across the street from my office, but that is down the list as far as why i love this place. The steaks are always cooked exactly to specification, the sides are tasty, service is warm yet efficient and a great scene. I always feel great in this place and they make you feel special from the hostess stand to the table service to the coat check. A+ for STK Midtown.
The staff was very pleasant and upbeat. The food was prepared and presented very well! The ambiance was very trendy and light; overall a very pleasant dining experience!

Luongo, Schneider lighten mood in Canucks' goal
UPDATED 6:24 PM EDT Mar 16, 2013
"It was painful. I hated every second of it. I just can't work with the guy." Cory Schneider delivered the line to a wall of TV cameras in a near-perfect deadpan before breaking into a smile after the Vancouver Canucks practiced Friday. Roberto Luongo, the subject of his mock hatred, had just finished addressing the media in the locker stall right next to him. Now it was Schneider's turn to talk about their role in the four-minute feature that ran on TSN during an intermission of a 7-4 win against the Nashville Predators the night before.

Switching to Petroleum Jelly after Pump Lotion Does the Trick
Dear NEA Scratch Pad:
I just wanted to thank you for your excellent website. I had severe eczema on my hands and fingers for months. I tried several creams and lotions, and nothing worked. I even researched eczema on the Internet and all the sites just said to use creams and lotions and cortisone. Only after finding the NEA website did I see the warning to avoid lotions in a pump and to try using petroleum jelly instead. That did the trick, and I started seeing results in less than a week! My hands finally look normal again, and I couldn't be happier!
Thank you again for your informative website.

During its heyday Vienna was home to many of Europe's greatest musicians; it is also home to some of the best examples of Art Nouveau architecture, among them the building of the Secession museum. Unusual buildings include the Hundertwasserhaus, architectural testament to the dream of an alternative living that haunted the eighties of the last century. Vienna is also world-renown for its coffee houses.

Full names for Maddie, Hallie, and Callie
As mentioned in the title, I would really appreciate some full names for my favourite nicknames:
Maddie-Other than Madison or Madeleine/Madeline. I actually really like the latter but feel like it is becoming too popular.
Hallie-I know it is often used as a full name, but it seems a bit to nickname-y to me.
Callie- The only one I can think of right now is Calista.
Thank You!~Izzy, looking for a new nickname
Currently Loving: Romilly, Esme, Piper, Helia, Scout..Rhett, Colin, Rhys, Adrian, Jonah

The Trees Are Dead and Dried Out
Unfortunate as it may be, there are many times when vokills can make or break a band, and it is also unfortunate that Sikth leans more towards the latter. Sikth is a band that falls under the "off the wall" boundaries occupied by bands like Dillinger Escape Plan and where At the Drive In used to reside when they were together. Throwing together over-the-top vokills, crazy guitar riffing, top notch bass playing, and dead-on drum execution, Sikth has all the elements to create a band that will stand out amongst the rest. Now I don't want to rag on the vokills too much, because for the most part they are fine and quite enjoyable at times. There are just certain moments when they just rub me the wrong way. As I mentioned earlier there are two singers, Mikee Goodman and Justin Hill. I don't know who handles what as there are a variety of vokill styles on here. The best way I can think to describe the screaming ones are a mix of Mike Patton (Faith No More, etc….) and Serj Tanaken (System of a Down) in that they are just off the wall and crazy. There are also some well executed clean vokills that are very upbeat and melodic, but never come across as too cheesy. The guitar riffs of Pin and Dan W. are a display of a good jazz background and the ability to create some good melodic music. To me, I see a huge At the Drive In vibe coming across on the guitars with spastic riffing, but still able to walk that fine line before hitting absolute chaos. There are often melodic breaks though where full on structure takes shape. The bass playing of James Leach is also very impressive as he is not afraid to show he knows his way around the fret board. Lastly, Dan Foord rounds up the six-piece on drums. With lots of start and stop beats and nice fills he gets the job done. Despite obtaining absolute musical chaos at times, Sikth still manages to craft a catchy song that will have your head bobbing with ease. With top notch production there's not too much one can really complain about here, except the strange break the album takes in the middle. The offending tracks here would be, "Tupelo" and "Can't we all Dream". Now possibly if these were shorter tracks they wouldn't be so agonizing to listen to, but I've come to the point where I just can't listen to them anymore. With a combined effort to reach a fifteen minute crap break, these tracks are sure to drive anyone nuts. They are pretty much devoid of "music" per say and choose to take a more ambient, avantgarde pace where the vokills, although they fit well with the other music, just become atrocious and down right annoying. If you were to abolish these two songs completely you would have quite the album here, but unfortunately they still mare it with their presence. Despite this, I still encourage you to check out this band, as they do offer some down-right good music to listen to and there's always that that little button to skip tracks so you can just pretend the above mentioned offenders don't exist.

CAPS / lack of paragraphs:
Just a suggestion that you will most likely get more responses to your posts if you do not use the CAPS lock or post one huge block of text without paragraphs. Some people find it really hard to read those and will just skip them altogether.

By Caitlin Dineen Staff writer
Fayetteville's newest police chief took his swearing-in ceremony Thursday as an opportunity to urge residents to work with police to reduce crime and improve the quality of life here.
"Without trust, relationships cannot be established," Harold Medlock said during the 40-minute ceremony at Methodist University.
Medlock, whose selection was announced in January by City Manager Ted Voorhees, replaces former Chief Tom Bergamine, who retired in July.
Assistant Chief Katherine Bryant served as interim chief. She did not apply for the position permanently.
Medlock said police only can do so much work to better the city and reduce crime. He said he hopes residents will work with officers to make Fayetteville the "safest city in North Carolina."
"Everything I do each and every day will focus on that goal," he said.
Medlock said while he hopes residents will work with police, officers need to do their part to enforce laws in a productive and ethical manner.
He said officers have an important authority, but that power should not be mistreated.
"With that authority comes great responsibility to do the work correctly," he said.
Thursday's ceremony was well attended by Fayetteville police and representatives and officials from the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department.
Before coming to Fayetteville, Medlock, 55, worked as a deputy police chief in Charlotte.
He was instrumental in leading police and other public safety officials in coordinating safety during last year's Democratic National Convention.
Law enforcement officials from Charlotte said Fayetteville was lucky to get Medlock as its new police chief.
"I think the world of him," Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Rodney Monroe said. "He's probably one of the best public officials I've had the privilege of working with."
Monroe said Medlock is a good fit for Fayetteville and is prepared to handle such a transient city and military community.
"He's a problem-solver," he said. "Even situations he may have no familiarity with at all, he looks at them as a challenge."
While the Police Department has been in a state of transition, Medlock's start will bring a new stability to residents and the department, his former colleagues said.
Andy Wrenn, who worked with Medlock in Charlotte for several years, said the new chief always has focused on community relations.
"He's the total big picture," Wrenn said. "He cares about every detail in that really big picture."
Following the ceremony, Medlock mingled with his family and thanked the many well-wishers who attended the ceremony.
He said he's ready to lead Fayetteville's 390-member force and work with residents who want to see change within the city.
"This is not about me," he said. "It's about us."

We are all in luck to hear that the Green Festival will be returning to Seattle this May! After just wrapping up in San Francisco, the festival will be in Chicago on May 14th and 15th and then come to Seattle on May 21st and 22nd. I attended green weekend last year and was blown away by the amount of exhibitors, knowledge of the speakers, and the interactive booths that were there. If you are looking for something to do in Seattle for a weekend, don't miss this opportunity.
The Green Festival is a project by Green America and Global Exchange; two incredible organizations aiming to educate the world on Green Living and social justice. Even the festival itself strives to be sustainable. Volunteer workers help attendees sort their trash so that plastics, aluminum, glass, mixed paper and cardboard, electronic waste and compost are all diverted from a landfill and are recycled. In its first year in 2008 the Seattle Green Festival diverted 97% of all its use from the landfill. Now coming back to Seattle for the 10th anniversary of the Festival, participation by attendees is crucial. Here are some things you can to help do while attending the festival;

Two one-point home wins last week and a one-point road loss by Central Missouri Saturday have put the injury-riddled Northwest Missouri State men's basketball team back in the conference title hunt.
Alone in second place, the Bearcats (15-5, 8-3) trail Central Missouri (15-4, 9-2) by just a game for first place with seven remaining.
Northwest's next four games, all against Fort Hays State and No. 17 Washburn, are likely to determine whether they stay in the race for the long haul.
The first two of those are on the road, beginning with tonight's 7:30 p.m. affair with Fort Hays State at Gross Memorial Coliseum.
"These are two top teams, two tough places to play," said Northwest head coach Ben McCollum of Fort Hays State and Washburn. "We're going to have to be at our best to win these."
Northwest and Hays have split the season series each of the last two years. They'll meet again a week later at Bearcat Arena.
The Bearcats enter this matchup off a 52-51 win over Emporia State Saturday. They rallied from 20 down in the first half to beat Northeastern State 73-72 two nights before. Both victories came while junior center and current leading scorer Dillon Starzl sat out with an MCL sprain. He won't play tonight either.
The Tigers (13-6, 7-4) have won three straight and are one of four teams within a game of Northwest in the standings.
Fort Hays is 9-2 at home on the year and 2-0 on a current four-game homestand. The Tigers opened conference play with a 77-72 home win over Central Missouri, which until Saturday, hadn't been beaten again. Their four conference defeats are all to teams ranked in the top seven of the conference.
"I think they get up and down and really like to score," said McCollum. "They like to play loose and free. I don't know how many games they've been in where it's under 60 points both teams. That's what we want to keep it at. If we can keep the tempo down, we got a good shot."
The Tigers own the No. 2 scoring offense in the MIAA (76.8 ppg), while Northwest is No. 1 in scoring defense (60.2 ppg). Northwest just held Emporia State to its lowest point total of the year.
Hays can also defend at a high level, ranking first in the MIAA in field goal percentage defense, second in steals and first in block shots.
Offensively, four of Hays' five starters average between 13 and 15 points per game.
Junior forward Dwayne Brunson (6-7, 220) leads the Tigers in scoring (14.8 ppg), rebounding (7.9 rpg) and is the MIAA leader in block shots (2.1 bpg). Senior guard Lance Russell is second on the team in scoring (14.3 ppg) and rebounding (5.1 rpg).
Page 2 of 2 - Freshman point guard Craig Nicholson averages 13.4 points per game and is second in the nation in assists with 7.4 per game. He has twice been named the MIAA Player of the Week.
Redshirt senior Ben Conguista rounds out the scoring foursome with 13.2 points per game. Conguista leads the MIAA in three-pointers made with 51, one ahead of Northwest Missouri State senior Alex Sullivan.
Senior guard DeAngelo Hailey (13.2 ppg) and Sullivan (10.7 ppg) are Northwest's only healthy double-figure scorers. Over the last two games, Northwest has received enhanced scoring from sophomore forward Grant Cozad and freshman guard Connor Crooker.
Cozad has reached double-figures in each of his last three games, raising his season average to 7.8 ppg.
Crooker had a career-high 24 in the win over Northeastern State.

I'm not fond of waffling but the answer is maybe and it depends.
Genuinely wealthy people may care about loyalty programs the way we understand them. They care about space, comfort, peace and quiet, service, privacy, excellence, quality, exclusivity, convenience … stuff like that. Of course, if you deliver on all those elements, you've already got a great loyalty program anyway.
The other night I was having dinner with some friends at the Bal Harbour shopping mall – it's really called The Bal Harbour Shops. It was Fashion Night and a fund-raiser for the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis.
We were sitting at an outside table watching waves of people pour through the front doors. A gang of insane-driver valets parked cars, some that cost as much as a nice apartment and some Corollas, Chevvies and Fords.
As we watched people stand in line for a goody bag containing nothing but two small samples of a new high energy drink, we wondered if they'd ever drink them or just toss them before they got home. Maybe it was just the idea of getting something for free. Or, much more likely, maybe most of those people weren't high-end customers at all. Maybe they were wanna-bes.
A headline in today's Wall Street Journal reads: "Ritz Hotels Bow to Slump, Adding a Loyalty Program". The article mentioned a decline in how much consumers will pay for luxury hotels. So Ritz Carlton is joining the ranks of other hotels, airlines, sandwich shops and my local nail salon in offering a loyalty program.
Ritz had always quoted its President as saying, "We're not going to give you a toaster, we're going to give you service". I guess he changed his mind, because:
1. Their sister brands (Marriot's Courtyard and Fairfield Inns) already offer points programs, so their administration systems must already be set up.
2. Booking expensive hotels for corporate business has become "frowned upon" in these uncertain times.
3. So maybe, just maybe, a frequent guest program will attract more business and leisure travelers to Ritz.
What's the program? Twenty nights @ $300 a night will earn you one or two free nights at a Ritz, or 10 nights at Fairfield Inns or Marriotts.
In other words, spend $6,000 and get a free night at the Ritz or a lot of free nights at a hotel you wouldn't stay in anyway. I hope it works for them.
I've always thought that the real loyalty to luxury brands comes from the long list of exceptional components that make them luxury brands in the first place, extra things that are built into the fabric of their brand. Sometimes they're little things, like the note a Nordstrom saleswoman sent me last week asking how I liked my new handbag.
Are you planning to grow your loyalty initiatives? The LTV (Lifetime Value) of a current frequent customer always outweighs the potential of even several potential and occasional customers, so maybe a deeper loyalty program will work for you. And maybe the consistently perfect delivery on your brand's promise will work even better.
Please tell me your favorite brand loyalty story here…and comment. And, thank you!

Things I liked:I ordered three of these air rifle because I heard the Sheridan brand is going to be retired. This brand is fantastic in quality and accuracy. If the current ammo shortage continues i will not have to pay higher prices for 22 lr. I purchased 4 tins of JSB Diabolo Exact in the 20 caliber. The pellets are perfect, I will be ordering more of pellets in the near future to stock up. I love to target practice and now I can take 2 of my grandsons with me. Things I would have changed:Nothing. What others should know:Nothing Things I liked:This gun is exceptional fun to shoot and dispatches squirrels with no problem. I mounted a long eye relief scout style on this gun and its deadly out to 40 or 50 yards. Things I would have changed:mounting for scope and spring on bolt or catch to keep it down after loading. What others should know:worth every penny..... Things I liked:I like the styling and the stock. Metal and wood construction. Fun and accurate. Made in the USA. Easy to work on when the need arises. Pyramid Air is great to deal with and also carries the parts for the Blue Streak 392 and 397 models. Crosman has put the brass valve back into this Model which in my opinion is a very good move. Things I would have changed:I would let it be known proudly that the CB9 is made in the USA and I would stamp the gun "Blue Streak" Model CB9 instead of just CB9. I would also price the Blue Streak accordingly with the 392 and 397 that are identical. What others should know:A little hard to pump after 6 pumps but not to bad.

Question: How can you play a bullish gold outlook while reducing the risk of an uncertain and volatile marketplace?
Answer: A bull 1x2 call spread.
Athough the presidential election will be settled by the time you read this, there still will be a lot of uncertainty regarding the economy and volatility in the metals sector.
Efforts to discern what the next few weeks or months may hold, while always difficult, have been intensified by the recent uptick in realized volatility. Oscillations are exacerbated by program trading, polling data, central banks, jobs numbers and questions regarding the fiscal cliff.
President and General Dwight D. Eisenhower said: "In preparing for battle, I have always found that plans are useless, but planning is indispensable."
While we are traders, not soldiers or politicians, Eisenhower's statement rings true. Absent a plan, you are more likely to fail in whatever you do, so here is some background and a plan for trading metals in the coming weeks.
On Nov. 2, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported that the economy added 171,000 jobs in October, beating expectations by about 40k. The BLS also revised the August and September data considerably higher (50k and 34k respectively). The release caught a fairly directionless short-term metals market flat-footed.
The board was blood red on the number as traders pushed gold lower by $40, 2.35%. Silver sold off by $1.39, 4.3%. The week ended in fairly classic "risk-off" fashion with the U.S. dollar and the VIX higher, and just about the entire commodity complex closing at or near multi-week lows.
The weakness in metals may present attractive entry points as the market nears the end of a healthy correction where outside forces still are very supportive of higher prices.
While the election is days away as of press time, the results will not change the overall outlook that higher prices are likely into the end of the year.
Technically, February gold is just north of its 200-day simple moving average. February gold closed $1,677.30 on Oct. 2 with the 200-day simple moving average at $1,672.80. The 200-day may provide some support, but there also is support at $1,650 and $1,600 (see "Firewalls in place").
General uncertainty and market volatility lend to near-term options strategies, so we will consider January options (governed by February futures), which expire on Dec. 26. We would execute a ratio spread by going long a January 1X2 call spread; buy 1 January gold 1700 call at $26 and sell 2 January gold 1750 calls at $12 for a net debit on the ratio of $2, or $200 plus commission, which makes the downside risk a fairly small $200 plus fees and commissions.
Ideally, gold futures move toward your short strike (1750) at expiration, in which case the position has a maximum potential value of $50 less your $2 debit or $4,800. Again, this position is net short one unit, so there is unlimited upside risk. Your breakeven on the upside at expiration is $1,798, above which the position has unlimited risk. (You could purchase the January 1800 call and turn the position into a long butterfly – defined risk, at any point).
As a ratio, the initial margin is $4,150 and $3,100 to maintain. The delta on the ratio call spread is flat at inception, but it bleeds into a long delta as time passes, depending on price.
If you are more bullish and more aggressive, you may consider buying the outright February gold futures at $1,675 and sell 2 January 1750 calls at $12 each. You collect $24 ($2,400) in option premium (excluding frictional costs). Expiration breakeven on the downside is $1,651. The ideal scenario would have gold move back toward $1,750 at expiration, in which case the position has a maximum potential value of $9,900 less commission. The position is net short one unit, so your upside breakeven at expiration comes in just below $1,850.
The position is long 50 delta at inception, so in theory you would be long one half of a futures. The initial margin is $8,500 and $6,250 in maintenance. However, this position has unlimited risk outside of breakevens.
Traders who are bullish but believe the correction has more legs and prefer a passive approach may consider selling outright puts at a level they would be comfortable owning gold futures. For example, a short January 1600 put would collect $1,500 in premium less commission; the 1575 would bring in $900.
Whichever scenario suits your outlook, it is important to establish a plan and trade your plan. Expect volatility. Make it your friend.
